Victory
Funds
Letter
to
Shareholders
(Unaudited)
Dear
Shareholder,
What
a
difference
a
year
can
make.
After
enduring
tumultuous
markets
and
steep
drawdowns
in
both
equities
and
bonds
during
2022,
investors
must
be
feeling
a
sense
of
relief.
Despite
the
ongoing
challenges
and
several
bouts
of
elevated
volatility,
we
all
benefitted
from
an
impressive
rebound
in
both
stock
and
bond
markets
during
our
most
recent
annual
reporting
period
ending
December
31,
2023.
Looking
back,
it
wasn’t
clear
sailing
all
year,
and
there
were
plenty
of
twists
and
turns
along
the
way.
The
year
got
off
to
a
quick
start
as
equity
investors
enjoyed
what
could
only
be
described
as
a
relief
rally.
Markets
rebounded
in
January
after
the
excessive
selling
of
2022.
In
the
United
States,
some
of
the
most
beaten
down
growth
sectors
that
were
punished
during
the
period
of
sharply
rising
interest
rates
led
the
market
higher.
But
the
rebound
was
threatened
in
March
due
to
some
unusual
turmoil
within
the
banking
sector,
which
resulted
in
the
collapse
of
a
few
large
regional
banks.
This
ratcheted
up
volatility
for
a
little
while
as
investors
feared
a
wider
banking
crisis;
however,
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”)
took
the
necessary
steps
to
quickly
restore
confidence
in
the
banking
system.
It
also
helped
that
the
Fed
paused
its
rate
hikes
as
inflation
data
finally
began
to
cool.
Financial
markets
resumed
their
rally
in
the
second
quarter
and
into
the
summer,
but
the
momentum
again
reversed
later
in
the
third
quarter.
Investors
wondered
if
the
Fed
would
be
able
to
remove
all
the
excess
liquidity
that
had
been
used
to
support
the
economy
during
the
pandemic
without
causing
a
recession.
Ironically,
good
news
on
the
economy
had
become
bad
news
on
the
interest-rate
outlook.
We
were
all
waiting
for
labor
markets
to
moderate,
which
would
help
keep
wages
in
check
and
ensure
inflation
would
not
worsen.
The
market
began
struggling
with
the
renewed
notion
that
interest
rates
would
remain
“higher-for-longer,”
which
seemingly
became
the
Fed’s
new
mantra.
Deep
into
the
third
quarter
investors
were
dealing
with
yet
another
bout
of
turmoil
as
yields
pushed
higher
and
eventually
peaked
for
the
year.
This
was
widely
interpreted
as
a
warning
sign
for
future
economic
growth,
and
many
pundits
were
also
predicting
an
imminent
recession.
Fortunately,
it
was
a
false
alarm
and
sentiment
flipped
as
we
approached
year-end.
Economic
growth
proved
resilient,
corporate
earnings
continued
to
meet
or
exceed
expectations,
labor
markets
eased,
and
key
measures
of
inflation
moderated.
All
this
gave
the
Fed
the
leeway
to
back
off—and
likely
end—its
historic
rate-hike
campaign.
Not
surprisingly,
the
fourth
quarter
finished
with
a
strong
rally
in
equity
markets,
and
with
declining
yields
and
rising
bond
prices.
Investors
cheered!
In
terms
of
the
numbers,
the
S&P
500
®
Index,
the
bell-weather
proxy
for
our
domestic
stock
market,
delivered
an
impressive
total
return
of
more
than
26%
for
our
annual
reporting
period.
Bonds
also
rebounded
from
a
dreadful
prior
year.
The
Bloomberg
U.S.
Aggregate
Bond
Index—a
proxy
for
a
diversified
fixed
income
portfolio
and
one
that
many
investors
and
institutions
follow
closely—delivered
a
total
return
of
5.53%
for
the
year.
Although
the
story
of
2023
had
a
happy
ending,
it’s
important
to
remember
that
it
was
a
winding
road
replete
with
many
challenges.
As
we
have
championed
before,
it’s
vital
to
remain
calm
in
the
face
of
adversity,
but
it’s
also
important
to
resist
unbridled
optimism
when
markets
rally
strongly. We
believe
the best
approach
is
to
stay
even
keeled
and
unemotional,
and
that
you
should
understand your
own
risk
tolerance,
maintain
a
well-diversified
portfolio
across
asset
classes
and
investment
types,
and
make
a
long-term
plan
and
stick
to
it.
We
still
believe
that’s
the
best
formula
for
success.

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
As
the
year
drew
to
a
close,
financial
markets
celebrated,
and
investors
cheered
what
may
yet
be
known
as
the
“immaculate
disinflation.”
After
all
the
peculiarities
of
the
pandemic
and
the
subsequent
monetary
and
fiscal
stimuli,
is
the
economy
normalizing
and
are
we
really
on
track
for
that
proverbial
soft
landing?
That’s
what
we
believe
the
financial
market
seemed
to
be
suggesting
during
the
fourth
quarter.
The
benchmark
10-year
U.S.
Treasury,
which
rose
as
high
as
4.99%
early
in
the
fourth
quarter,
fell
to
as
low
as
3.79%
toward
the
end
of
the
year,
as
inflation
continued
to
abate,
the
labor
market
showed
signs
of
normalizing,
and
the
consumer
remained
surprisingly
resilient.
Markets
rallied
sharply,
led
by
sectors
that
had
been
most
adversely
impacted
by
higher
interest
rates
and
a
weakening
economic
environment,
such
as
financial
services
and
real
estate.
Earlier
in
the
fourth
quarter,
however,
the
picture
wasn’t
quite
so
rosy.
The
quarter
began
with
small-cap
stocks,
as
defined
by
the
Russell
2000
®
Index,
declining
6.82%
in
the
month
of
October.
Large-cap
stocks,
as
measured
by
the
Russell
1000
®
Index,
also
fell
for
the
third
consecutive
month,
declining
2.42%
in
October.
While
corporate
earnings
and
economic
growth
continued
to
surpass
expectations,
concerns
over
rising
interest
rates
overwhelmed
fundamentals
and
weighed
heavily
on
the
market.
Fortunately,
as
the
quarter
progressed,
equity
markets
flipped,
and
there
was
a
significant
move
higher
across
most
styles
beginning
in
late
October.
The
rally
was
triggered
by
growing
optimism
that
inflation
was
being
contained,
thus
giving
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
the
freedom
to
end
its
aggressive
interest
rate
hikes.
Yields
on
2-year
and
10-year
Treasurys
fell
88
and
120
basis
points,
respectively,
intra-quarter.
(A
basis
point
is
1/100
th
of
a
percentage
point.)
In
terms
of
the
overall
numbers
for
our
area
of
focus—domestic
value-oriented
strategies—the
Russell
3000
®
Value
Index
returned
9.83%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
bringing
the
full
year
return
to
11.66%.
In
terms
of
market
capitalizations,
small-cap
value
stocks,
as
represented
by
the
Russell
2000
®
Value
Index
(the
“Index”),
returned
15.26%
for
the
quarter.
The
Russell
Midcap
®
Value
Index
returned
12.11%
for
the
fourth
quarter,
while
large-cap
stocks,
as
represented
by
the
Russell
1000
®
Value
Index
returned
9.50%
during
the
quarter.
Indeed,
let’s
celebrate
the
good
news
and
recent
rally.
Yet
we
should
also
acknowledge
that
after
an
extended
period
of
exceedingly
low
interest
rates,
fiscal
tailwinds,
and
easy
access
to
cheap
capital,
we
are
firmly
in
a
new
regime.
This
reality
has
been
difficult
for
the
market
to
digest,
and
we’ve
seen
that
manifest
in
periods
of
volatility
and
uncertainty.
Naturally,
this
often
causes
prices
to
dislocate
from
fundamentals,
thus
creating
an
environment
that
we
believe
should
benefit
active
managers.
How
did
Victory
RS
Partners
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
returned
15.66%
(Class
A
at
net
asset
value)
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
outperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
14.65%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
outperformed
the
Index
primarily
through
stock
selection
in
the
financials
and
energy
sectors.
Our
focus
on
businesses
that
have
the
potential
for
long-term
value
creation
while
limiting
our
downside
paid
off
during
2023.
For
the
year,
the
stocks
that
provided
positive
contribution
tended
to
be
undergoing
a
unique
structural
change,
but
also
holding
a
competitive
advantage.
Within
the
financials
sector,
Primerica
Inc.
and
First
Bancorp
were
significant
positive
contributors
to
performance.
The
energy
sector
provided
other
names
that
benefitted
the
portfolio.
Gulfport
Energy
Corp.
and
Plains
GP
Holdings
LP,
Class
A
led
performance.
Where
we
struggled
was
in
the
technology
sector.
Verint
Systems,
Inc.
saw
its
share
price
fall
over
an
elongated
sales
cycle,
and
challenges
were
exacerbated
by
the
uncertainty
surrounding
the
impact
of
artificial
intelligence
technology
on
its
overall
business.
Additionally,
our
underexposure
to
more
cyclical
semiconductor
and
related
businesses
negatively
impacted
performance.
Nevertheless,
we
managed
to
outperform
the
Index
in
2023,
and
we
remain
confident
that
our
investment
philosophy
and
vetted
process,
will
help
us
deliver
longer-term
investment
results
that
will
benefit
our
investors
over
time.
Moreover,
we
continue
to
believe
that
the
current
environment
is
creating
many
potential
pockets
of
opportunities
for
astute,
long-term
investors.
Our
experience
has
taught
us
that
patience,
sticking
to
a
process,
and
maintaining
valuation
discipline
are
key
advantages
for
active
managers,
particularly
in
volatile
markets.
Our
team
continues
to
seek
and
identify
companies
that
share
two
vital
traits:
a
trend
of
improving
their
return
on
invested
capital,
and
stock
prices
trading
at
what
we
perceive
as
a
deep
discount
to
intrinsic
value.
We
believe
that
allocating
to
these
types
of
companies
is
a
means
to
generate
attractive
risk-adjusted
returns
over
longer
time
periods,
and
this
continues
to
be
a
primary
focus
for
us.

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
As
the
year
drew
to
a
close,
financial
markets
celebrated,
and
investors
cheered
what
may
yet
be
known
as
the
“immaculate
disinflation.”
After
all
the
peculiarities
of
the
pandemic
and
the
subsequent
monetary
and
fiscal
stimuli,
is
the
economy
normalizing
and
are
we
really
on
track
for
that
proverbial
soft
landing?
That’s
what
we
believe
the
financial
market
seemed
to
be
suggesting
during
the
fourth
quarter.
The
benchmark
10-year
U.S.
Treasury,
which
rose
as
high
as
4.99%
early
in
the
fourth
quarter,
fell
to
as
low
as
3.79%
toward
the
end
of
the
year,
as
inflation
continued
to
abate,
the
labor
market
showed
signs
of
normalizing,
and
the
consumer
remained
surprisingly
resilient.
Markets
rallied
sharply,
led
by
sectors
that
had
been
most
adversely
impacted
by
higher
interest
rates
and
a
weakening
economic
environment,
such
as
financial
services
and
real
estate.
Earlier
in
the
fourth
quarter,
however,
the
picture
wasn’t
quite
so
rosy.
The
quarter
began
with
small-cap
stocks,
as
defined
by
the
Russell
2000
®
Index,
declining
6.82%
in
the
month
of
October.
Large-cap
stocks,
as
measured
by
the
Russell
1000
®
Index,
also
fell
for
the
third
consecutive
month,
declining
2.42%
in
October.
While
corporate
earnings
and
economic
growth
continued
to
surpass
expectations,
concerns
over
rising
interest
rates
overwhelmed
fundamentals
and
weighed
heavily
on
the
market.
Fortunately,
as
the
quarter
progressed,
equity
markets
flipped,
and
there
was
a
significant
move
higher
across
most
styles
beginning
in
late
October.
The
rally
was
triggered
by
growing
optimism
that
inflation
was
being
contained,
thus
giving
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
the
freedom
to
end
its
aggressive
interest
rate
hikes.
Yields
on
2-year
and
10-year
Treasurys
fell
88
and
120
basis
points,
respectively,
intra-quarter.
(A
basis
point
is
1/100
th
of
a
percentage
point.)
In
terms
of
the
overall
numbers
for
our
area
of
focus—domestic
value-oriented
strategies—the
Russell
3000
®
Value
Index
returned
9.83%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
bringing
the
full
year
return
to
11.66%.
In
terms
of
market
capitalizations,
small-cap
value
stocks,
as
represented
by
the
Russell
2000
®
Value
Index
returned
15.26%
for
the
quarter.
The
Russell
Midcap
®
Value
Index
(the
“Index”)
returned
12.11%
for
the
fourth
quarter,
while
large-cap
stocks,
as
represented
by
the
Russell
1000
®
Value
Index
returned
9.50%
during
the
quarter.
Indeed,
let’s
celebrate
the
good
news
and
recent
rally.
Yet
we
should
also
acknowledge
that
after
an
extended
period
of
exceedingly
low
interest
rates,
fiscal
tailwinds,
and
easy
access
to
cheap
capital,
we
are
firmly
in
a
new
regime.
This
reality
has
been
difficult
for
the
market
to
digest,
and
we’ve
seen
that
manifest
in
periods
of
volatility
and
uncertainty.
Naturally,
this
often
causes
prices
to
dislocate
from
fundamentals,
thus
creating
an
environment
that
we
believe
should
benefit
active
managers.
How
did
Victory
RS
Value
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
returned
7.52%
(Class
A
at
net
asset
value)
for
the
12-month
period
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
underperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
12.71%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund’s
underperformance
in
2023
was
the
result
of
our
holdings
in
the
technology
and
consumer
discretionary
sectors.
In
the
technology
sector,
Verint
Systems,
Inc.
saw
its
share
price
fall
over
an
elongated
sales
cycle,
and
the
challenges
were
exacerbated
by
the
uncertainty
surrounding
the
impact
of
artificial
intelligence
technology
on
its
overall
business.
Additionally,
under-
exposure
to
more
cyclical
semiconductor
and
related
businesses
negatively
impacted
performance.
In
consumer
discretionary,
stiff
competition
and
an
inability
to
meet
earnings
expectations
led
to
underperformance
at
The
Wendy’s
Co.
In
contrast,
the
Fund
benefitted
from
strong
performance
in
the
financials
and
utilities
sectors,
as
both
Fairfax
Financial
Holdings
Ltd.
and
Vistra
Corp.
continued
to
show
improving
returns
and
strong
free
cash
flow
generation.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
performance
was
disappointing
in
2023,
but
we
remain
confident
that
our
investment
philosophy
and
vetted
process
will
help
us
deliver
longer-term
investment
results
that
will
benefit
our
investors
over
time.
Moreover,
we
continue
to
believe
that
the
current
environment
is
creating
many
potential
pockets
of
opportunities
for
astute,
long-term
investors.
Our
experience
has
taught
us
that
patience,
sticking
to
a
process,
and
maintaining
valuation
discipline
are
key
advantages
for
active
managers,
particularly
in
volatile
markets.
Our
team
continues
to
seek
and
identify
companies
that
share
two
vital
traits:
a
trend
of
improving
their
return
on
invested
capital,
and
stock
prices
trading
at
what
we
perceive
as
a
deep
discount
to
intrinsic
value.
We
believe
that
allocating
to
these
types
of
companies
is
a
means
to
generate
attractive
risk-adjusted
returns
over
longer
time
periods,
and
this
continues
to
be
a
primary
focus
for
us.

for

ended
December
31,

outperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
11.46%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
outperformed
the
Index
primarily
through
stock
selection
in
the
financials
and
utilities
sectors.
Our
focus
on
businesses
that
have
the
potential
for
long-term
value
creation
while
limiting
our
downside
paid
off
during
2023.
For
the
year,
the
stocks
that
provided
positive
contribution
tended
to
be
undergoing
a
unique
structural
change,
but
also
holding
a
competitive
advantage.
Within
the
financials
sector,
Fairfax
Financial
Holdings
Ltd.
and
Cboe
Global
Markets
Inc.
were
significant
positive
contributors
to
performance.
The
utilities
sector
provided
other
names
that
benefitted
the
portfolio.
Specifically,
Vistra
Corp.
was
a
positive
contributor
as
a
result
of
improving
cash
flows.
Where
we
struggled
was
in
the
communication
services
and
energy
sectors.
Despite
solid
stock
selection,
our
underweight
to
this
sector
negatively
impacted
performance.
Within
energy,
falling
oil
and
gas
prices
negatively
impacted
cashflows
and
performance
of
several
of
our
holdings.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
however,
we
managed
to
outperform
the

in
2023,
and
we
remain
confident
that
our

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
As
the
year
drew
to
a
close,
financial
markets
celebrated,
and
investors
cheered
what
may
yet
be
known
as
the
“immaculate
disinflation.”
After
all
the
peculiarities
of
the
pandemic
and
the
subsequent
monetary
and
fiscal
stimuli,
is
the
economy
normalizing
and
are
we
really
on
track
for
that
proverbial
soft
landing?
That’s
what
we
believe
the
financial
market
seemed
to
be
suggesting
during
the
fourth
quarter.
The
benchmark
10-year
U.S.
Treasury,
which
rose
as
high
as
4.99%
early
in
the
fourth
quarter,
fell
to
as
low
as
3.79%
toward
the
end
of
the
year,
as
inflation
continued
to
abate,
the
labor
market
showed
signs
of
normalizing,
and
the
consumer
remained
surprisingly
resilient.
Markets
rallied
sharply,
led
by
sectors
that
had
been
most
adversely
impacted
by
higher
interest
rates
and
a
weakening
economic
environment,
such
as
financial
services
and
real
estate.
Earlier
in
the
fourth
quarter,
however,
the
picture
wasn’t
quite
so
rosy.
The
quarter
began
with
small-cap
stocks,
as
defined
by
the
Russell
2000
®
Index,
declining
6.82%
in
the
month
of
October.
Large-cap
stocks,
as
measured
by
the
Russell
1000
®
Index,
also
fell
for
the
third
consecutive
month,
declining
2.42%
in
October.
While
corporate
earnings
and
economic
growth
continued
to
surpass
expectations,
concerns
over
rising
interest
rates
overwhelmed
fundamentals
and
weighed
heavily
on
the
market.
Fortunately,
as
the
quarter
progressed,
equity
markets
flipped,
and
there
was
a
significant
move
higher
across
most
styles
beginning
in
late
October.
The
rally
was
triggered
by
growing
optimism
that
inflation
was
being
contained,
thus
giving
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
the
freedom
to
end
its
aggressive
interest
rate
hikes.
Yields
on
2-year
and
10-year
Treasurys
fell
88
and
120
basis
points,
respectively,
intra-quarter.
(A
basis
point
is
1/100th
of
a
percentage
point.)
In
terms
of
the
overall
numbers
for
our
area
of
focus—domestic
value-oriented
strategies—the
Russell
3000
®
Value
Index
(the
“Index”)
returned
9.83%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
bringing
the
full
year
return
to
11.66%.
In
terms
of
market
capitalizations,
small-cap
value
stocks,
as
represented
by
the
Russell
2000
®
Value
Index
returned
15.26%
for
the
quarter.
The
Russell
Midcap
®
Value
Index
returned
12.11%
for
the
fourth
quarter,
while
large-cap
stocks,
as
represented
by
the
Russell
1000
®
Value
Index
returned
9.50%
during
the
quarter.
Indeed,
let’s
celebrate
the
good
news
and
recent
rally.
Yet
we
should
also
acknowledge
that
after
an
extended
period
of
exceedingly
low
interest
rates,
fiscal
tailwinds,
and
easy
access
to
cheap
capital,
we
are
firmly
in
a
new
regime.
This
reality
has
been
difficult
for
the
market
to
digest,
and
we’ve
seen
that
manifest
in
periods
of
volatility
and
uncertainty.
Naturally,
this
often
causes
prices
to
dislocate
from
fundamentals,
thus
creating
an
environment
that
we
believe
should
benefit
active
managers.
How
did
Victory
RS
Investors
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
returned
13.17%
(Class
A
at
net
asset
value)
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
outperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
11.66%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
outperformed
the
Index
primarily
through
stock
selection
in
the
financials
and
utilities
sectors.
Our
focus
on
businesses
that
have
the
potential
for
long-term
value
creation
while
limiting
our
downside
paid
off
during
2023.
For
the
year,
the
stocks
that
provided
positive
contribution
tended
to
be
undergoing
a
unique
structural
change,
but
also
holding
a
competitive
advantage.
Within
the
financials
sector,
Fairfax
Financial
Holdings
Ltd.
and
Cboe
Global
Markets
Inc.
were
significant
positive
contributors
to
performance.
The
utilities
sector
provided
other
names
that
benefitted
the
portfolio.
Specifically,
Vistra
Corp.
was
a
positive
contributor
as
a
result
of
improving
cash
flows.
Where
we
struggled
was
in
the
technology
sector.
Verint
Systems,
Inc.
saw
its
share
price
fall
over
an
elongated
sales
cycle,
and
the
challenges
were
exacerbated
by
the
uncertainty
surrounding
the
impact
of
artificial
intelligence
technology
on
its
overall
business.
Additionally,
under
exposure
to
more
cyclical
semiconductor
and
related
businesses
negatively
impacted
performance.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
we
managed
to
outperform
the
Index
in
2023,
and
we
remain
confident
that
our
investment
philosophy
and
process
will
help
us
deliver
longer-term
investment
results
that
will
benefit
our
investors
over
time.
Moreover,
we
continue
to
believe
that
the
current
environment
is
creating
many
potential
pockets
of
opportunities
for
astute,
long-term
investors.
Our
experience
has
taught
us
that
patience,
sticking
to
a
process,
and
maintaining
valuation
discipline
are
key
advantages
for
active
managers,
particularly
in
volatile
markets.
Our
team
continues
to
seek
and
identify
companies
that
share
two
vital
traits:
a
trend
of
improving
their
return
on
invested
capital,
and
stock
prices
trading
at
what
we
perceive
as
a
deep
discount
to
intrinsic
value.
We
believe
that
allocating
to
these
types
of
companies
is
a
means
to
generate
attractive
risk-adjusted
returns
over
longer
time
periods,
and
this
continues
to
be
a
primary
focus
for
us.

Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
Inflation
fell
after
spiking
in
2022,
leading
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
to
signal
an
end
to
rate
hikes
with
potential
cuts
in
2024.
Broad
equity
markets
rallied,
led
by
tech.
Commodity
prices
declined
with
the
S&P
GSCI
®
price
index
falling
12.2%.
Lithium
and
Nickel,
which
saw
some
of
the
highest
gains
in
2022,
fell
80.4%
and
45.0%
respectively,
a
reminder
of
the
cyclical
and
volatile
nature
of
commodity
prices.
How
did
Victory
Global
Energy
Transition
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
returned
-8.68%
(Class
A
at
net
asset
value)
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
underperforming
the
MSCI
World
Commodity
Producers
Index,
which
returned
1.61%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
We
stuck
to
our
longstanding
process
during
the
reporting
period.
We
seek
to
identify
companies
that,
over
a
market
cycle
for
commodity
prices,
have
the
potential
to
compound
net
asset
value
(“NAV”)
and
as
a
result,
generate
excess
returns
relative
to
simply
owning
the
commodity
itself.
Our
focus
is
on
industries
that
will
be
required
for
the
Energy
Transition,
which
we
define
as
the
global
effort
to
simultaneously
decarbonize
energy
systems
and
expand
access
to
affordable,
sustainable
energy
services
around
the
world.
We
seek
exposure
to
“advantaged
producers”
of
those
natural
resources
who
are
favorably
positioned
on
the
supply
cost
curve
and
can
generate
an
intrinsic
rate
of
return
in
excess
of
the
underlying
commodity.
We
asses
our
investment
universe
at
the
asset
level
based
on
proved
reserves
and
conservative
commodity
price
assumptions.
We
seek
to
own
securities
trading
at
a
discount
to
our
assessment
of
current
NAV.
We
view
this
process
and
the
intrinsic
return
generated
by
structurally
advantaged
producers
as
the
primary
driver
of
returns
for
our
portfolio.
While
we
believe
decarbonization
efforts
are
adding
inflationary
pressures
to
many
supply-constrained
commodities,
we
do
not
attempt
to
forecast
commodity
price
or
demand
increases
and
view
these
catalysts
as
additional
upside
potential
for
the
investors
in
our
strategy.
We
believe
our
longstanding
process
allows
us
to
look
past
the
inherent
price
swings
in
commodity
markets
and
provides
a
framework
for
adjusting
exposures
when
advantaged
producer
equites
are
trading
at
a
discount
or
premium
to
our
assessment
of
net
asset
value.
The
last
half
of
2023
provided
a
fertile
ground
for
value
investing,
and
we
believe
the
Fund
is
well
positioned
and
trading
at
a
steep
discount
to
NAV.

1.
Organization:
Victory
Portfolios
(the
“Trust”)
is
organized
as
a
Delaware
statutory
trust and
the Trust
is
registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“1940
Act”),
as
an
open-end
investment
company.
The
Trust
is
comprised
of 37
funds
and
is
authorized
to
issue
an
unlimited
number
of
shares,
which
are
units
of
beneficial
interest
with a
par
value
of
$0.001
per
share.
The
accompanying
financial
statements
are
those
of
the
following five
Funds
(collectively,
the
“Funds”
and
individually,
a
“Fund”).
Each
Fund,
with
the
exception
of
Victory
RS
Investors
Fund
and
Victory
Global
Energy
Transition
Fund, is
classified
as
diversified
under
the
1940
Act.
*
Commenced
operations
June
2,
2023.
Each
class
of
shares
of
a
Fund
has
substantially
identical
rights
and
privileges
except
with
respect
to
sales
charges,
fees
paid
under
distribution
plans,
expenses
allocable
exclusively
to
each
class
of
shares,
voting
rights
on
matters
solely
affecting
a
single
class
of
shares,
and
the
exchange
privilege
of
each
class
of
shares. Victory
Capital
Management
Inc.
(“VCM”
or
the
“Adviser”)
is
an
indirect
wholly
owned
subsidiary
of
Victory
Capital
Holdings,
Inc.,
a
publicly
traded
Delaware
corporation,
and
a
wholly
owned
direct
subsidiary
of
Victory
Capital
Operating,
LLC.
Under
the
Trust’s
organizational
documents,
its
officers
and
trustees
are
indemnified
against
certain
liabilities
arising
out
of
the
performance
of
their
duties
to
the
Funds.
In
addition,
in
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Funds
enter
into
contracts
with
their
vendors
and
others
that
provide
for
general
indemnifications.
The Funds’
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown,
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Funds.
However,
based
on
experience,
the
Funds
expect
that
risk
of
loss
to
be
remote.
2.
Significant
Accounting
Policies:
The
following
is
a
summary
of
significant
accounting
policies
followed
by
the Funds
in
the
preparation
of their
financial
statements.
 The
policies
are
in
conformity
with
U.S.
Generally
Accepted
Accounting
Principles
(“GAAP”).
The
preparation
of
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
GAAP
requires
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
and
disclosure
of
contingent
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements
and
the
reported
amounts
of
income
and
expenses
for
the
period.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
The
Funds
follow
the
specialized
accounting
and
reporting
requirements
under
GAAP
that
are
applicable
to
investment
companies
under
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946.
Investment
Valuation:
The
Funds
record
investments
at
fair
value.
Fair
value
is
defined
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date.
The
valuation
techniques
described
below
maximize
the
use
of
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs
in
determining
fair
value.
The
inputs
used
for
valuing
the
Funds’
investments
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
securities
Level
2
other
significant
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar
securities,
interest
rates,
or
credit
spreads,
applicable
to
those
securities,
etc.)
Level
3
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
the
Adviser’s
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments)
Changes
in
valuation
techniques
may
result
in
transfers
in
or
out
of
an
assigned
level
within
the
disclosure
hierarchy.
The
inputs
or
methodologies
used
for
valuation
techniques
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risks
associated
with
entering
into
those
investments.
The
Adviser,
appointed
as the
valuation
designee
by the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”),
has
established
the
Pricing
and
Liquidity
Committee
(the
“Committee”),
and
subject
to Board
oversight,
the
Committee
administers
and
oversees
the
Funds’
valuation
policies
and
procedures,
which
were
approved
by
the
Board.
Portfolio
securities
listed
or
traded
on
securities
exchanges,
including
Exchange-Traded
Funds
(“ETFs”),
and
American
Depositary
Receipts,
are
valued
at
the
last
sale
price
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded,
if
available,
or
at
the
Nasdaq
Official
Closing
Price.
If
there
have
been
no
sales
for
that
day
on
the
exchange
or
system,
then
a
security
is
valued
at
the
closing bid
quotation
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded.
In
each
of
these
situations,
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
1
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Investments
in
open-end
investment
companies,
other
than
ETFs, are
valued
at their
net
asset
value
(“NAV”).
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
1 in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
In
the
event
that
price
quotations
or
valuations
are
not
readily
available,
investments
are
valued
at
fair
value
in
accordance
with
procedures
established
by
and
under
the
general
supervision
and
responsibility
of
the
Board.
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
2
or
Level
3
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy,
based
on
the
observability
of
inputs
used
to
determine
the
fair
value.
The
effect
of
fair
value
pricing
is
that
securities
may
not
be
priced
on
the
basis
of
quotations
from
the
primary
market
in
which
they
are
traded
and
the
actual
price
realized
from
the
sale

Valuing

intended
to
cause

Funds’
NAV to
be
more
reliable
than
it
otherwise

valuations
as
of
December

2023,
based
upon
the
three
levels
defined
above,
is
included
in

table
below
while
the
breakdown,
by
category,
of
investments
is
disclosed
on

Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments:
As
of December
31,
2023,
there
were
no
significant transfers
into/out
of
Level
3.
Real
Estate
Investment
Trusts
(“REITs”):
The
Funds
may
invest
in
REITs,
which
report
information
on
the
source
of
their
distributions
annually.
REITs
are
pooled
investment
vehicles
that
invest
primarily
in
income-producing
real
estate
or
real
estate
related
loans
or
interests
(such
as
mortgages).
Certain
distributions
received
from
REITs
during
the
year
are
recorded
as
realized
gains
or
return
of
capital
as
estimated
by
the
Funds
or
when
such
information
becomes
known.
Investment
Companies:
Open-End
Funds:
The
Funds
may
invest
in
portfolios
of
open-end
investment
companies.
These
investment
companies
value
securities
in
their
portfolios
for
which
market
quotations
are
readily
available
at
their
market
values
(generally
the
last
reported
sale
price)
and
all
other
securities
and
assets
at
their
fair
value
by
the
methods
established
by
the
board
of
directors
of
the
underlying
funds.
Special
Purpose
Acquisition
Companies
(“SPACs”):
The
Funds
may
invest
in
stock,
warrants
and
other
securities
of
SPACs.
SPAC
typically
is
a
publicly
traded
company
that
raises
funds
through
an
initial
public
offering
(“IPO”)
for
the
purpose
of
acquiring
or
merging
with
another
company
to
be
identified
subsequent
to
the
SPAC’s
IPO.
If
the
Fund
purchases
shares
of
a
SPAC
in
an
IPO
it
generally
will
bear
a
sales
commission,
which
may
be
significant.
The
securities
of
a
SPAC
are
often
issued
in
“units”
that
include
one
share
of
common
stock
and
one
right
or
warrant
(or
partial
right
or
warrant)
conveying
the
right
to
purchase
additional
shares
or
partial
shares.
Unless
and
until
a
transaction
is
completed,
a
SPAC
generally
invests
its
assets
(less
a
portion
retained
to
cover
expenses)
in
U.S.
government
securities,
money
market
funds
and
similar
investments
whose
returns
or
yields
may
be
significantly
lower
than
those
of
the
Funds’
other
investments.
If
an
acquisition
or
merger
that
meets
the
requirements
for
the
SPAC
is
not
completed
within
a
pre-established
period
of
time,
the
invested
funds
are
returned
to
the
SPAC’s
shareholders,
less
certain
permitted
expenses,
and
any
rights
or
warrants
issued
by
the
SPAC
will
expire
worthless.
Private
Investments
in
Public
Equities:
The
Funds
may
acquire
common
stock
or
a
security
convertible
into
common
stock,
such
as
a
warrant
or
convertible
preferred
stock,
directly
from
an
issuer
seeking
to
raise
capital
in
a
private
placement
pursuant
to
Regulation
D
under
the
1933
Act.
These
transactions
are
commonly
referred
to
as
a
private
placement
in
a
publicly
held
company,
or
“PIPE.”
The
issuer’s
common
stock
is
usually
publicly
traded
on
a
U.S.

the
time
of
the
transaction.
As
part
of
a
PIPE
transaction,
the
issuer
usually
will
be
contractually
obligated
to
seek
to
register,
within
an
agreed
upon
period
of
time
for
public
resale
under
the
U.S.
securities
laws,
the
common
stock
or
the
shares
of
common
stock
issuable
upon
conversion
of
the
convertible
securities.
PIPE
transactions
typically
involve
the
purchase
of
securities
directly
from
a
publicly
traded
company
or
its
affiliates
in
a
private
placement
transaction,
including
through
a
SPAC,
typically
at
a
discount
to
the
market
price
of
the
issuer’s
securities.
If
the
issuer
fails
to
so
register
the
shares
within
that
period,
the
buyer
may
be
entitled
to
additional
consideration
from
the
issuer
(e.g.,
warrants
to
acquire
additional
shares
of
common
stock),
but
the
buyer
may
not
be
able
to
sell
its
shares
unless
and
until
the
registration
process
is
successfully
completed.
Thus,
PIPE
transactions
present
certain
risks
not
associated
with
open
market
purchases
of
equities.
Derivative
Instruments:
Foreign
Exchange
Currency
Contracts:
The Funds
may
enter
into
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts
to
convert
U.S.
dollars
to
and
from
various
foreign
currencies.
A
foreign
exchange
currency
contract
is
an
obligation
by the
Funds
to
purchase
or
sell
a
specific
currency
at
a
future
date
at
a
price
(in
U.S.
dollars)
set
at
the
time
of
the
contract.
The
Funds
do
not
engage
in
“cross-currency”
foreign
exchange
contracts
(i.e.,
contracts
to
purchase
or
sell
one
foreign
currency
in
exchange
for
another
foreign
currency).
The
Funds’
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts
might
be
considered
spot
contracts
(typically
a
contract
of
one
week
or
less)
or
forward
contracts
(typically
a
contract
term
over
one
week).
A
spot
contract
is
entered
into
for
purposes
of
hedging
against
foreign
currency
fluctuations
relating
to
a
specific
portfolio
transaction,
such
as
the
delay
between
a
security
transaction
trade
date
and
settlement
date.
Forward
contracts
are
entered
into
for
purposes
of
hedging
portfolio
holdings
or
concentrations
of
such
holdings.
Each
foreign
exchange
currency
contract
is
adjusted
daily
by
the
prevailing
spot
or
forward
rate
of
the
underlying
currency,
and
any
appreciation
or
depreciation
is
recorded
for
financial
statement
purposes
as
unrealized
until
the
contract
settlement
date,
at
which
time
the
Funds
record
realized
gains
or
losses
equal
to
the
difference
between
the
value
of
a
contract
at
the
time
it
was
opened
and
the
value
at
the
time
it
was
closed. The
Funds
could
be
exposed
to
risk
if
a
counterparty
is
unable
to
meet
the
terms
of
a
foreign
exchange
currency
contract
or
if
the
value
of
the
foreign
currency
changes
unfavorably.
In
addition,
the
use
of
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts
does
not
eliminate
fluctuations
in
the
underlying
prices
of
the
securities.
The
Funds
enter
into
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts
solely
for
spot
or
forward
hedging
purposes,
and
not
for
speculative
purposes
(i.e.,
the
Funds
do
not
enter
into
such
contracts
solely
for
the
purpose
of
earning
foreign
currency
gains).
 As
of December
31,
2023,
the
Funds
had
no
open
forward
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts.
Investment
Transactions
and
Related
Income:
Changes
in
holdings
of
investments
are
accounted
for
no
later
than
one
business
day
following
the
trade
date.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
however,
investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
trade
date
or
the
last
business
day
of
the
reporting
period.
Interest
income
is
determined
on
the
basis
of
coupon
interest
accrued
and
recorded
daily
 using
the
effective
interest
method
which
adjusts,
where
applicable,
the
amortization
of
premiums
or
accretion
of
discounts. Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Non-cash
dividends
included
in
income,
if
any,
are
recorded
at
the
fair
value
of
the
securities
received. Gains
or
losses
realized
on
sales
of
securities
are
recorded
on
the
identified
cost
basis.
Withholding
taxes
on
interest,
dividends,
and
gains
as
a
result
of
certain
investments
by
the
Funds
have
been
provided
for
in
accordance
with
each
investment’s
applicable
country’s
tax
rules
and
rates.
Securities
Lending:
The
Funds, through
a Securities
Lending
Agreement with
Citibank,
N.A.
(“Citibank”), may
lend
their
securities
to
qualified
financial
institutions,
such
as
certain
broker-dealers
and
banks,
to
earn
additional
income,
net
of
income
retained
by
Citibank. 
Borrowers
are
required
to
initially
secure
their
loans for
collateral
in
the
amount
of
at
least
102%
of
the
value
of
U.S.
securities
loaned
or
at
least
105%
of
the
value
of
non-U.S.
securities
loaned,
marked-to-market
daily.
Any
collateral
shortfalls
associated
with
increases
in
the
valuation
of
the
securities
loaned
are
generally
cured the
next
business
day.
The
collateral
can
be
received
in
the
form
of
cash
collateral
and/or
non-cash
collateral.
Non-
cash
collateral
can
include
U.S.
Government
Securities and
other
securities
as
permitted
by
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(“SEC”)
guidelines.
The
cash
collateral
is
invested
in
short-term
instruments
or
cash
equivalents,
primarily
open-end
investment
companies,
as
noted
on
the
Funds’
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments.
The
Funds
effectively
do not
have
control
of
the
non-cash
collateral
and
therefore
it
is
not
disclosed
on
the
Funds’
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments.
Collateral
requirements
are
determined
daily
based
on
the
value
of
the
Funds’
securities
on
loan
as
of
the
end
of
the prior
business
day. 
During
the
time
portfolio
securities
are
on
loan,
the
borrower
will
pay
the
Funds
any
dividends
or
interest
paid
on
such
securities
plus
any
fee
negotiated
between
the
parties
to
the
lending
agreement.
The
Funds
also
earn
a
return
from
the
collateral.
The
Funds
pay
Citibank
various
fees
in
connection
with
the
investment
of
cash
collateral
and
fees
based
on
the
investment
income
received
from
securities
lending
activities.
Securities
lending
income
(net
of
these
fees)
is
disclosed
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Loans
are
terminable
upon
demand
and
the
borrower
must
return
the
loaned
securities
within
the
lesser
of
one
standard
settlement
period
or
five
business
days. 
Although
risk
is
mitigated
by
the
collateral, a
Fund could
experience
a
delay
in
recovering
its
securities
and
possible
loss
of
income
or
value
if
the
borrower
fails
to
return
them.
In
addition,
there
is
a
risk that
the
value
of
the
short-term
investments
will
be
less
than
the
amount
of
cash
collateral
required
to
be
returned
to
the
borrower.

The
Funds’
agreement
with
Citibank
does
not
include
master
netting
provisions.
Non-cash
collateral
received
by
the
Funds
may
not
be
sold
or
repledged,
except
to
satisfy
borrower
default.
The
following
table
is
a
summary
of
the
Funds’
securities
lending
transactions
as
of
December
31,
2023.
Foreign
Currency
Translations:
The
accounting
records
of
the
Funds
are
maintained
in
U.S.
dollars.
Investment
securities
and
other
assets
and
liabilities
of
a
Fund
denominated
in
a
foreign
currency
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
current
exchange
rates.
Purchases
and
sales
of
securities,
income
receipts
and
expense
payments
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
the
exchange
rates
on
the
date
of
the
transactions.
The
Funds
do
not
isolate
the
portion
of
the
results
of
operations
resulting
from
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
on
investments
from
fluctuations
arising
from
changes
in
market
prices
of
securities
held.
Such
fluctuations,
if
any, are
disclosed
as
Net
change
in
unrealized
appreciation/depreciation
on investment
securities
and
foreign
currency
translations
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Any
realized
gains
or
losses
from
these
fluctuations,
if
any, are
disclosed
as
Net
realized
gains
(losses)
from
investment
securities
and
foreign
currency
transactions
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Federal
Income
Taxes:
Each
Fund
intends
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
by
complying
with
the
provisions
available
to
certain
investment
companies,
as
defined
in
applicable
sections
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code,
and
to
make
distributions
of
net
investment
income
and
net
realized
gains
sufficient
to
relieve
it
from
all,
or
substantially
all,
federal
income
taxes.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
financial
statements.
The
Funds
have
a
tax
year
end
of
December
31.
For
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
the
Funds
did
not
incur
any
income
tax,
interest,
or
penalties,
and
have
recorded
no
liability
for
net
unrecognized
tax
benefits
relating
to
uncertain
tax
positions.
Management
of
the
Funds
has
reviewed
tax
positions
taken
in
tax
years
that
remain
subject
to
examination
by
all
major
tax
jurisdictions,
including
federal
(i.e.,
the
last
four
tax
years,
which
includes
the
current
fiscal
tax
year
end).
Management
believes
that
there
is
no
tax
liability
resulting
from
unrecognized
tax
benefits
related
to
uncertain
tax
positions
taken.
Allocations:
Expenses
directly
attributable
to a
Fund
are
charged
to that
Fund,
while
expenses
that
are
attributable
to
more
than
one
fund
in
the
Trust,
or
jointly
with
an
affiliated
trust,
are
allocated
among
the
respective
funds
in
the
Trust
and/or
an
affiliated
trust
based
upon
net
assets
or
another
appropriate
basis.
Income,
expenses
(other
than
class-specific
expenses
such
as
transfer
agent
fees,
state
registration
fees,
printing
fees,
and
12b-1
fees),
and
realized
and
unrealized
gains
or
losses
on
investments
are
allocated
to
each
class
of
shares
based
on
its
relative
net
assets
on
the
date
income
is
earned
or
expenses
and
realized
and
unrealized
gains
and
losses
are
incurred.

Under
the
terms
of
the
expense
limitation agreement, the Funds
have
agreed
to
repay
fees
and
expenses
that
were
waived
or
reimbursed
by
the
Adviser
for
a
period
of
up
to
three
years
(thirty-six
(36)
months)
after
the
waiver
or
reimbursement
took
place,
subject
to
the
lesser
of
any
operating
expense
limits
in
effect
at
the
time
of:
(a)
the
original
waiver
or
expense
reimbursement;
or
(b)
the
recoupment,
after
giving
effect
to
the
recoupment
amount.
The
Funds
have
not
recorded
any
amounts
available
to
be
repaid
to
the
Adviser
as
a
commitment
and
contingency
liability
due
to
an
assessment
that
such
repayments
are
not
probable
at
December
31,
2023.
For
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
the
following
recoupment
amounts
were
paid

As
of December

the
following amounts
are

ratios.
Voluntary
waivers
and
reimbursements
applicable
to
the
Funds
are
not
available
to
be

future
time.

Risks:
The
Funds
may
be
subject
to
other
risks
in
addition
to
these
identified
risks.
Equity
Risk
The
value
of
the
equity
securities
in
which
the
Funds
invest
may
decline
in
response
to
developments
affecting
individual
companies
and/or
general
economic
conditions
in
the
United
States
or
abroad.
A
company’s
earnings
or
dividends
may
not
increase
as
expected
(or
may
decline)
because
of
poor
management,
competitive
pressures,
reliance
on
particular
suppliers
or
geographical
regions,
labor
problems
or
shortages,
corporate
restructurings,
fraudulent
disclosures,
man-made
or
natural
disasters,
military
confrontations
or
wars,
terrorism,
public
health
crises,
or
other
events,
conditions,
and
factors.
Price
changes
may
be
temporary
or
last
for
extended
periods.
Private
Investments
in
Public
Equities
Risk
The
risks
associated
with
PIPE
transactions
that
the
RS
Science
and
Technology
Fund
invests
is
that
the
issuer
may
be
unable
to
register
the
shares
for
public
resale
in
a
timely
manner
or
at
all,
in
which
case
the
shares
may
be
sold
only
in
a
privately
negotiated
transaction,
typically
at
a
price
less
than
that
paid,
assuming
a
suitable
buyer
can
be
found.
Disposing
of
the
securities
may
involve
time-consuming
negotiation
and
legal
expenses,
and
selling
them
promptly
at
an
acceptable
price
may
be
difficult
or
impossible.
Even
if
the
shares
are
registered
for
public
resale,
the
market
for
the
issuer’s
securities
may
nevertheless
be
“thin”
or
illiquid,
making
the
sale
of
securities
at
desired
prices
or
in
desired
quantities
difficult
or
impossible.
While
private
placements
may
offer
attractive
opportunities
not
otherwise
available
in
the
open
market,
the
securities
purchased
are
usually
“restricted
securities”
or
are
“not
readily
marketable.”
Restricted
securities
cannot
be
sold
without
being
registered
under
the
1933
Act,
unless
they
are
sold
pursuant
to
an
exemption
from
registration
(such
as
Rules
144
or
144A
under
the
1933
Act).
Securities
that
are
not
readily
marketable
are
subject
to
other
legal
or
contractual
restrictions
on
resale.
Special
Purpose
Acquisition
Company
Risk
An
investment
in
a
SPAC
is
subject
to
a
variety
of
risks,
including
that
(1)
a
portion
of
the
monies
raised
by
the
SPAC
for
the
purpose
of
effecting
an
acquisition
or
merger
may
be
expended
prior
to
the
transaction
for
payment
of
taxes
and
other
expenses;
(2)
the
Fund
generally
will
not
receive
significant
income
from
its
investments
in
SPACs
(both
prior
to
and
after
any
acquisition
or
merger)
and,
therefore,
the
Fund’s
investments
in
SPACs
will
not
significantly
contribute
to
the
Fund’s
distributions
to
shareholders;
(3)
an
attractive
acquisition
or
merger
target
may
not
be
identified
at
all
or
a
proposed
merger
or
acquisition
may
be
unable
to
obtain
the
requisite
approval,
if
any,
of
SPAC
shareholders
and/or
antitrust
and
securities
regulators;
(4)
the
warrants
or
other
rights
with
respect
to
the
SPAC
held
by
the
Fund
may
expire
worthless
or
may
be
redeemed
by
the
SPAC
at
an
unfavorable
price;
(5)
the
Fund
may
be
subject
to
opportunity
costs
to
the
extent
that
alternative
investments
would
have
produced
higher
returns;
(6)
an
acquisition
or
merger
once
effected

thinly

by
the
trustee,
interest
rate
risk
and
credit
and
liquidity
risk
relating
to
the
securities
and
money
market
funds
in
which
the
proceeds
are
invested.
Sector Focus
Risk
— 
To
the
extent
the
Funds
focus
in
one
or
more
sectors,
market
or
economic
factors
impacting
those
sectors
could
have
a
significant
effect
on
the
value
of
the
Funds’
investments
and
could
make
the
Funds’
performance
more
volatile.
For
example,
the
values
of
companies
in
the
Information
Technology
sector
are
particularly
vulnerable
to
economic
downturns,
short
product
cycles
and
aggressive
pricing,
market
competition
and
changes
in
government
regulation.
Concentration
Risk
 The
Global
Energy
Transition
Fund
(herein,
the
Fund)  may
concentrate
its
investments
in
a
particular
industry,
as
the
term
“concentration”
is
used
in
the
1940
Act.
Concentrating
investments
in
the
Natural
Resources
sector
increases
the
risk
of
loss
because
the
stocks
of
many
or
all
of
the
companies
in
the
sector
may
decline
in
value
due
to
developments
adversely
affecting
the
sector.
In
addition,
investors
may
buy
or
sell
substantial
amounts
of
the
Fund’s
shares
in
response
to
factors
affecting
or
expected
to
affect
the
natural
resources
sector,
resulting
in
extreme
inflows
and
outflows
of
cash
into
and
out
of
the
Fund.
Such
inflows
or
outflows
might
affect
management
of
the
Fund
adversely
to
the
extent
they
cause
the
Fund’s
cash
position
or
cash
requirements
to
exceed
normal
levels. 
Natural
Resources
Investment
Risk
Investment
in
companies
in
natural
resources
industries
(including
those
in
the
energy
sector)
can
be
significantly
affected
by
(often
rapid)
changes
in
supply
of,
or
demand
for,
various
natural
resources.
They
may
also
be
affected
by
changes
in
energy
prices,
international
political
and
economic
developments,
environmental
incidents,
energy
conservation,
the
success
of
exploration
projects,
changes
in
commodity
prices,
and
tax
and
other
government
regulations.
For
example,
the
COVID-19
pandemic
has
drastically
reduced
the
demand
for
various
natural
resources
and
has
drastically
increased
the
price
volatility
of
natural
resources
and
companies
within
the
natural
resources
industry.
An
extended
period
of
reduced
(or
negative)
prices
may
significantly
lengthen
the time
that
companies
within
the
natural
resources
industries
would
need
to
recover
after
a
stabilization
of
prices.
Investments
in
interests
in
gas
or
mineral
exploration
or
development
programs,
including
pipelines,
may
be
held
through
master
limited
partnerships,
which
are
generally
subject
to
many
of
the
risks
that
apply
to
partnerships
and
may
also
be
subject
to
certain
tax
risks.
Smaller-Capitalization
Stock
Risk
Small-
and
mid-sized
companies
are
subject
to
a
number
of
risks
not
associated
with
larger,
more
established
companies,
potentially
making
their
stock
prices
more
volatile
and
increasing
the
risk
of
loss.
Smaller
companies
may
have
limited
markets,
product
lines,
or
financial
resources
and
lack
management
experience
and
may
experience
higher
failure
rates
than
larger
companies.
Market
Risk
Overall
market
risks
may
affect
the
value
of
the
Funds.
Domestic
and
international
factors
such
as
political
events,
war,
terrorism,
trade
disputes,
inflation
rates,
interest
rate
levels,
and
other
fiscal
and
monetary
policy
changes;
cybersecurity
incidents,
pandemics,
and
other
public
health
crises;
sanctions
against
a
particular
foreign
country,
its
nationals,
businesses,
or
industries;
and
related
geopolitical
events,
as
well
as
environmental
disasters
such
as
earthquakes,
fires,
and
floods,
or
other
catastrophes,
may
add
to
instability
in
global
economies
and
markets
generally,
and
may
lead
to
increased
market
volatility.
Global
economies
and
financial
markets
are
highly
interconnected,
which
increases
the
possibility
that
conditions
in
one
country
or
region
might
adversely
affect
issuers
in
another
country
or
region.
The
impact
of
these
and
other
factors
may
be
short-term
or
may
last
for
extended
periods.
Limited
Portfolio
Risk
—To
the
extent
the
Funds
invest assets
in
a
more
limited
number
of
issuers
than
other
mutual
funds,
a
decline
in
the
market
value
of
a
particular
security
may
affect
the
Funds'
value
more
than
if
the
Funds
invested
in
a
larger
number
of
issuers.

Borrowing
and
Interfund
Lending:
Line
of
Credit:
The
Victory
Funds
Complex
participates
in
a
short-term
demand
note
“Line
of
Credit”
agreement
with
Citibank.
Under
the
agreement
with
Citibank,
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
may
borrow
up
to
$600
million,
of
which
$300
million
is
committed
and
$300
million
is
uncommitted.
$40
million
of
the
Line
of
Credit
is
reserved
for
use
by
the
Victory
Floating
Rate
Fund,
another
series
of
the
Victory
Funds
Complex,
with
Victory
Floating
Rate
Fund
paying
the
related
commitment
fees
for
that
amount.
The
purpose
of
the
Line
of
Credit
is
to
meet
temporary
or
emergency
cash
needs.
For
the year
ended
December
31,
2023,
Citibank
received
an
annual
commitment
fee
of
0.15%
on
$300
million
for
providing
the
Line
of
Credit.
Each
Fund
in
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
paid
a
pro-rata
portion
of
the
commitment
fees
plus
any
interest
on
amounts
borrowed.
Interest
is
based
on
the
one-month Secured
Overnight
Financing
Rate
(SOFR)
plus
1.10
percent.
Effective
June
27,
2023,
the

with
a
termination
date
of
June
24,
2024,
and
the
annual
commitment
fee
of
0.15%
remained
unchanged. Interest
charged
to each

the
period,
if
applicable,
is
reflected

The

had
no

under the
Line
of

agreement
during
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023.
Interfund
Lending:
The
Trust
and
the
Adviser
rely
on
an
exemptive

granted
by
the
SEC
in
March
2017
(the
“Order”),
permitting
the
establishment

operation
of
an
Interfund

(the
“Facility”).
The

the
Order,
by
averaging
the
current

Federal
Income
Tax
Information:
Dividends
from
net
investment
income,
if
any,
are
declared
and
paid
as
noted
in
the
table
below.
Distributable
net
realized
gains,
if
any,
are
declared
and
distributed
at
least
annually
from
each
Fund. 
The
amounts
of
dividends
from
net
investment
income
and
distributions
from
net
realized
gains
(collectively,
distributions
to
shareholders)
are
determined
in
accordance
with
federal
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
To
the
extent
these
“book/tax”
differences
are
permanent
in
nature
(e.g.,
net
operating
loss
and
distribution
reclassification),
such
amounts
are
reclassified
within
the
components
of
net
assets
based
on
their
federal
tax-basis
treatment;
temporary
differences
(e.g.,
wash
sales)
do
not
require
reclassification.
To
the
extent
dividends
and
distributions
exceed
net
investment
income
and
net
realized
gains
for
tax
purposes,
they
are
reported
as
distributions
of
capital.
Net
investment
losses
incurred
by
the
Funds
may
be
reclassified
as
an
offset
to
capital
on
the
accompanying
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
As
of
December
31,
2023,
on
the
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities,
as
a
result
of
permanent
book-to-tax
differences,
reclassification
adjustments
were
as
follows:
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
during

years
ended,
as
noted
below,
were
as
follows
(total
distributions

differ
from

As
of
December
31,
2023,
the
components
of
accumulated
earnings/(loss)
on
a
tax
basis
were
as
follows:
*
Qualified
late-year
losses
are
comprised
of
post-October
capital
losses
incurred
after
October
31
and
certain
late-year
ordinary
losses.
Late-
year
ordinary
losses
represent
ordinary
losses
incurred
after
December
31
and
specified
losses
incurred
after
October
31.
These
losses
are
deemed
to
arise
on
the
first
day
of
the
Fund’s
next
taxable
year.
**
The
difference
between
the
book-basis
and
tax-basis
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
is
attributable
primarily
to
tax
deferral
of
losses
on
wash
sales,
passive
foreign

company
adjustments,
and
partnership
basis
adjustments.
As
of December

New
Regulatory
Pronouncement:
In
October
2022,
the
SEC
adopted
the
Tailored
Shareholder
Reports
Rule
and
form
amendments
that
require,
among
other
things,
mutual
funds
and
ETFs
to
prepare
and
transmit
streamlined
annual
and
semi-annual
shareholder
reports.
In
connection
with
these
amendments,
certain
information
that
was
previously
disclosed
in
shareholder
reports
will
instead
be
made
available
online,
delivered
free
of
charge
upon
request,
and
filed
with
the
SEC
on
a
semi-annual
basis.
Also
in
connection
with
these
amendments,
annual
and
semi-annual
reports
will
be
provided
directly
to
shareholders,
either
in
paper
or
(if
the
shareholder
has
so
elected)
electronically.
Compliance
with
the
rule
and
form
amendments
begins
in
July
2024.
At
this
time,
management
is
evaluating
the
impact
of
these
amendments
on
the
shareholder
reports
for
the
Funds.

Subsequent
Event:
On
December
5,
2023,
the
Board
approved
the
adoption
of
a
conversion
feature
for
Class
R
of
the
RS
Value
Fund,
RS
Large
Cap
Alpha
Fund,
RS
Investors
Fund
and
Global
Energy
Transition
Fund.
Under
the
relevant
conversion
feature,
effective
after
the
close
of
business
on
March
28,
2024,
all
of
the
issued
and
outstanding
shares
of
Class
R
of
each
Fund
will
be
converted
into
shares
of
Class
A
of
each
Fund.
The
share
class
conversion
will
be
effectuated
on
the
basis
of
the
relative
NAVs
of
the
share
class
without
the
imposition
of
a
sales
charge.
Based
on
the
financial
information
for
the
Funds’
fiscal
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
Class
A
has
lower
gross
and
net
total
expense
ratios
than
Class
R.

Opinion
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statements
of
assets
and
liabilities,
including
the
schedules
of
portfolio
investments,
of
Victory
RS
Partners
Fund,
Victory

Value

Victory
RS
Large

Alpha

Victory
RS
Investors

and
Victory
Global

(the
“Funds”),
each
a
series
of
Victory
Portfolios,
as
of
December
31,
2023,
the
related
statements
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
related
notes,
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
then
ended
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
statements”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Funds
as
of
December
31,
2023,
the
results
of
their
operations
for
the
year
then
ended,
the
changes
in
net
assets
for
each
of
the
two
years
in
the
period
then
ended,
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
then
ended,
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Funds’
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Funds’
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
Funds
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.
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,
2023,
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
of
the
investment
companies
advised
by
Victory
Capital
Management
Inc.
since

Expense
Examples
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
may
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs, including
sales
charges
(loads)
on
purchases;
 and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees
and
other
Fund
expenses.
These
examples
are
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
These
examples
are
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
period
and
held
for
the
entire
period
from
July
1,
2023,
through
December
31,
2023.
The
Actual
Expense
figures
in
the
table
below
provide
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
below,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
The
Hypothetical
Expense
figures
in
the
table
below
provide
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
shareholder
reports
of
other
funds.
Please
note
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
below
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs.
Therefore,
the
hypothetical
expenses
in
the
table
are
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

Considerations
of
the
Board
in
Continuing
the
Investment
Advisory
Agreements
The
Board
approved
the
advisory
agreement
with
the
Adviser,
on
behalf
of
each
of
the
Funds
(the
“Advisory
Agreement”),
and
the
sub-advisory
agreement
between
SailingStone
Capital
Partners
LLC
(the
“Sub-Adviser”)
and
the
Adviser,
on
behalf
of
the
Global
Energy
Transition
Fund
(the
“Sub-Advisory
Agreement”
and
together
with
the
Advisory
Agreement,
the
“Agreements”),
at
a
meeting,
which
was
called
for
that
purpose,
on
December
5,
2023.
The
Board
also
considered
information
relating
to
the
Funds
and
the
Agreements
provided
throughout
the
year
and,
more
specifically,
at
the
meetings
on
October
17,
2023
and
December
5,
2023.
In
considering
whether
to
approve
the
Agreements,
the
Board
requested
from
the
Adviser
and
Sub-Adviser
certain
information
concerning
the
Funds
to
assist
it
in
evaluating
the
terms
of
the
Agreements.
In
response
to
the
request
from
the
Independent
Trustees,
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser
provided
information
and
reports
relevant
to
the
continuation
of
the
Agreements.
The
Board,
including
the
Independent
Trustees,
evaluated
this
information
along
with
other
information
obtained
throughout
the
year
and
was
advised
by
legal
counsel
to
the
Funds
and
independent
legal
counsel
to
the
Independent
Trustees.
The
Board
considered
each
Fund’s
advisory
fee,
expense
ratio
and
investment
performance
as
significant
factors
in
determining
whether
the
Agreements
should
be
continued.
The
Board
reviewed
numerous
factors
with
respect
to
each
Fund,
including
the
services
to
be
provided
by
the
Sub-Adviser.
In
considering
whether
the
compensation
paid
to
the
Adviser
was
fair
and
reasonable,
the
Board
also
evaluated,
among
other
things,
the
following
factors:
The
requirements
of
the
Funds
for
the
services
provided
by
the
Adviser;
The
nature,
quality
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
and
expected
to
be
provided;
The
performance
of
the
Funds
as
compared
to
comparable
funds;
The
fees
payable
for
the
services
and
whether
the
fee
arrangements
provided
for
economies
of
scale
that
would
benefit
Fund
shareholders
as
the
Funds
grow
(acknowledging
that
economies
of
scale
can
be
complex
to
assess
and
typically
are
not
directly
measurable)
and
whether
breakpoints
would
be
appropriate;
Whether
the
fee
would
be
sufficient
to
enable
the
Adviser
to
attract
and
retain
experienced
personnel
and
continue
to
provide
quality
services
to
the
Funds;
The
fees
paid
by
other
clients
of
the
Adviser
whose
accounts
are
managed
in
a
similar
investment
style
and
any
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
clients
compared
to
those
provided
to
the
Funds;
The
total
expenses
of
each
Fund;
Management’s
commitment
to
operating
the
Funds
at
competitive
expense
levels;
The
profitability
of
the
Adviser
(as
reflected
by
comparing
fees
earned
against
an
estimate
of
the
Adviser’s
costs)
with
respect
to
the
Adviser’s
relationship
with
the
Funds;
Research
and
other
service
benefits
received
by
the
Adviser
obtained
through
payment
of
client
commissions
for
securities
transactions;
Other
benefits
received
by
the
Adviser,
and
its
affiliates,
including
revenues
paid
to
the
Adviser,
or
its
affiliates,
by
the
Funds
for

accounting
services,
shareholder
services
and

The
capabilities
and
financial
condition
of
the
Adviser;
Current
economic
and
industry
trends;
and
The
historical
relationship
between
each
Fund
and
the
Adviser.
In
considering
whether
the
compensation
paid

the
Sub-Adviser
was
fair
and
reasonable,
the
Board
also
evaluated,
among
other
things,
the

the
sub-advisory
fee
for
the
Fund
is
within
the
range

market
for
similar
services;
Whether
the
fee
would
be
sufficient
to
enable
the
Sub-Adviser
to
attract
and
retain
experienced
personnel
and
continue
to
provide
quality

to
the

by
the
Sub-Adviser
as
a
result
of
its
sub-advisory
relationship
with
the
Fund;
The

The
Board
reviewed
each
Fund’s
current
management
fee,
comprised
of
the
advisory
fee
plus
the
administrative
services
fee
paid
to
the
Adviser,
in
the
context
of
the
Adviser’s
business
and
services
with
respect
to
each
Fund
individually
and
with
respect
to
all
the
funds
as
a
whole.
The
Board
retained
an
independent,
third-party
consultant
to
provide
comparative
information
about
fees,
expenses
and
performance,
and
to
design
and
maintain
a
database
of
relevant
information
designed
to
assist
the
Board
in
retrieving
and
analyzing
comparative
information.
The
Board
met
with
the
consultant
to
review
its
inputs
and
methodologies,
among
other
things.
The
Board
compared
each
Fund’s
gross
management
fee
and
total
operating
expense
ratio
on
a
net
and
gross
basis
with
the
median
gross
management
fee
and
median
expense
ratio
of
a
universe
of
comparable
mutual
funds
compiled
by
the
consultant,
and
a
peer
group
of
funds
with
similar
investment
strategies
selected
by
that
consultant
from
the
universe
of
comparable
funds.
The
Board
reviewed
the
factors
and
methodology
used
by
the
consultant
in
the
selection
of
each
Fund’s
peer
group,
including
the
consultant’s
selection
of
a
broad
universe
of
funds,
the
more
specific
universe
of
comparable
funds,
and
peer
groups
of
funds
with
comparable
investment
strategies
and
asset
levels,
among
other
factors.
The
Board
also
reviewed
any
changes
to
the
consultant’s
methodology
as
compared
to
the
prior
year,
including
those
resulting
from
the
Adviser’s
input,
if
any.
With
respect
to
certain
Funds,
the
Board
also
reviewed
fees
and
other
information
related
to
the
Adviser’s
management
of
similarly
managed
institutional
or
private
accounts,
and
the
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
accounts.
The
Board
noted
that
none
of
the
advisory
fee
arrangements
for
these
Funds
included
breakpoints,
which
would
be
a
structure
that
results
in
reduced
fees
as
a
fund
grows.
The
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
commitment
to
limit
expenses
as
discussed
in
more
detail
below.
For
Funds
with
total
net
expense
ratios
that
ranked
within
the
fourth
quartile
(most
expensive)
in
relation
to
their
peers
as
evaluated
by
a
consultant,
the
Board
requested,
and
the
Adviser
provided,
supplemental
information
about
the
level
of
fees
and
the
nature
of
the
services
provided.
The
Adviser
reviewed
additional
relevant
circumstances,
which
included,
among
other
things,
specialized
strategies,
small
or
decreasing
assets,
or
rapid
or
recent
changes
in
peer
expense
ratios.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
compliance
and
administrative
services
provided
to
the
Funds
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates,
including
the
Adviser’s
oversight
of
the
Funds’
day-to-day
operations
and
oversight
of
Fund
accounting,
assistance
in
meeting
legal
and
regulatory
requirements,
and
other
services
necessary
for
the
operation
of
the
Funds
and
the
Trust.
With
respect
to
the
Global
Energy
Transition
Fund,
the
Board
also
considered
information
concerning
the
fee
paid
to
the
Sub-Adviser
under
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreement.
The
Board
considered
the
relative
roles
and
responsibilities
of
the
Adviser
and
Sub-Adviser
with
respect
to
the
Fund
and
noted
that,
among
other
things:
(1)
the
sub-advisory
fees
for
the
Fund
are
paid
by
the
Adviser
and,
therefore,
are
not
a
direct
expense
of
the
Fund;
and
(2)
the
Adviser
supervises
the
Sub-Adviser.
The
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
representation
that
the
fees
to
be
paid
to
the
Sub-Adviser
are
within
the
range
of
sub-advisory
fees
paid
to
other
sub-advisers
for
similar
services.
The
Board
reviewed
fees
and
other
information
related
to
the
Sub-Adviser’s
management
of
similarly
managed
institutional
or
private
accounts,
and
the
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
accounts.
The
Board
recognized
that
because
the
sub-advisory
fees
are
paid
by
the
Adviser,
any
arrangement
by
the
Sub-
Adviser
to
either
increase
or
reduce
its
fee
would
have
no
direct
impact
on
the
Fund
or
its
shareholders.
The
Board
found
that
the
gross
annual
management
fee
paid
by
each
Fund
was
within
the
range
of
management
fees
paid
by
each
Fund’s
respective
peer
group.
The
Board
also
found
that
each
Fund’s
Class
A
net
annual
expense
ratio,
taking
into
account
any
shareholder
servicing
or
distribution
fees,
was
reasonable
as
compared
with
each
Fund’s
respective
peer
group.
The
Board
considered
the
Adviser’s
contractual
agreement
with
each
Fund
to
waive
its
fees
and
reimburse
expenses
of
certain
classes
for
a
specified
period
of
time,
as
described
in
the
Fund’s
prospectus.
The
Board
reviewed
each
Fund’s
performance
over
one-,
three-,
five-
and
ten-year
periods
(as
applicable)
against
the
performance
of
the
Fund’s
selected
peer
group
and
benchmark
index.
The
Board

Victory
Funds
Letter
to
Shareholders
(Unaudited)
Dear
Shareholder,
What
a
difference
a
year
can
make.
After
enduring
tumultuous
markets
and
steep
drawdowns
in
both
equities
and
bonds
during
2022,
investors
must
be
feeling
a
sense
of
relief.
Despite
the
ongoing
challenges
and
several
bouts
of
elevated
volatility,
we
all
benefitted
from
an
impressive
rebound
in
both
stock
and
bond
markets
during
our
most
recent
annual
reporting
period
ending
December
31,
2023.
Looking
back,
it
wasn’t
clear
sailing
all
year,
and
there
were
plenty
of
twists
and
turns
along
the
way.
The
year
got
off
to
a
quick
start
as
equity
investors
enjoyed
what
could
only
be
described
as
a
relief
rally.
Markets
rebounded
in
January
after
the
excessive
selling
of
2022.
In
the
United
States,
some
of
the
most
beaten
down
growth
sectors
that
were
punished
during
the
period
of
sharply
rising
interest
rates
led
the
market
higher.
But
the
rebound
was
threatened
in
March
due
to
some
unusual
turmoil
within
the
banking
sector,
which
resulted
in
the
collapse
of
a
few
large
regional
banks.
This
ratcheted
up
volatility
for
a
little
while
as
investors
feared
a
wider
banking
crisis;
however,
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”)
took
the
necessary
steps
to
quickly
restore
confidence
in
the
banking
system.
It
also
helped
that
the
Fed
paused
its
rate
hikes
as
inflation
data
finally
began
to
cool.
Financial
markets
resumed
their
rally
in
the
second
quarter
and
into
the
summer,
but
the
momentum
again
reversed
later
in
the
third
quarter.
Investors
wondered
if
the
Fed
would
be
able
to
remove
all
the
excess
liquidity
that
had
been
used
to
support
the
economy
during
the
pandemic
without
causing
a
recession.
Ironically,
good
news
on
the
economy
had
become
bad
news
on
the
interest-rate
outlook.
We
were
all
waiting
for
labor
markets
to
moderate,
which
would
help
keep
wages
in
check
and
ensure
inflation
would
not
worsen.
The
market
began
struggling
with
the
renewed
notion
that
interest
rates
would
remain
“higher-for-longer,”
which
seemingly
became
the
Fed’s
new
mantra.
Deep
into
the
third
quarter
investors
were
dealing
with
yet
another
bout
of
turmoil
as
yields
pushed
higher
and
eventually
peaked
for
the
year.
This
was
widely
interpreted
as
a
warning
sign
for
future
economic
growth,
and
many
pundits
were
also
predicting
an
imminent
recession.
Fortunately,
it
was
a
false
alarm
and
sentiment
flipped
as
we
approached
year-end.
Economic
growth
proved
resilient,
corporate
earnings
continued
to
meet
or
exceed
expectations,
labor
markets
eased,
and
key
measures
of
inflation
moderated.
All
this
gave
the
Fed
the
leeway
to
back
off—and
likely
end—its
historic
rate-hike
campaign.
Not
surprisingly,
the
fourth
quarter
finished
with
a
strong
rally
in
equity
markets,
and
with
declining
yields
and
rising
bond
prices.
Investors
cheered!
In
terms
of
the
numbers,
the
S&P
500
®
Index,
the
bell-weather
proxy
for
our
domestic
stock
market,
delivered
an
impressive
total
return
of
more
than
26%
for
our
annual
reporting
period.
Bonds
also
rebounded
from
a
dreadful
prior
year.
The
Bloomberg
U.S.
Aggregate
Bond
Index—a
proxy
for
a
diversified
fixed
income
portfolio
and
one
that
many
investors
and
institutions
follow
closely—delivered
a
total
return
of
5.53%
for
the
year.
Although
the
story
of
2023
had
a
happy
ending,
it’s
important
to
remember
that
it
was
a
winding
road
replete
with
many
challenges.
As
we
have
championed
before,
it’s
vital
to
remain
calm
in
the
face
of
adversity,
but
it’s
also
important
to
resist
unbridled
optimism
when
markets
rally
strongly. We
believe
the best
approach
is
to
stay
even
keeled
and
unemotional,
and
that
you
should
understand your
own
risk
tolerance,
maintain
a
well-diversified
portfolio
across
asset
classes
and
investment
types,
and
make
a
long-term
plan
and
stick
to
it.
We
still
believe
that’s
the
best
formula
for
success.

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
After
a
rocky
start
to
the
fourth
quarter
in
October
2023,
investors
came
to
the
conclusion
that
the
rate-hike
cycle
was
drawing
to
a
close.
With
that
prospect,
corporate
earnings
and
economic
growth
continued
to
surpass
expectations,
while
many
measures
of
inflation
moderated.
With
inflation
fears
in
the
rear-view
mirror,
equities
rallied
and
delivered
strong
absolute
returns
in
November
and
December.
Interestingly,
we
did
see
a
shift
in
market
internals
as
cyclical
and
defensive
areas
gave
way
to
longer
duration
growth
stocks.
We
believe
this
may
be
the
beginning
of
a
true
change
in
leadership
and
harbinger
of
things
to
come.
The
general
sense
of
optimism
was
clearly
evident
in
the
broader
market,
as
the
S&P
500
®
Index
rallied
more
than
11%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
bringing
the
full
year
gains
to
more
than
26%.
This
is
quite
the
rebound
from
a
disappointing
2022.
Importantly,
growth
stocks
across
capitalizations
rebounded
sharply
this
past
year
as
well.
Large-cap
growth
was
the
story
for
much
of
the
year
with
the
proverbial
Magnificent
Seven
garnering
much
media
attention,
though
other
growth
sectors
also
participated
even
as
they
received
less
fanfare.
Large-cap
growth
stocks
as
measured
by
the
Russell
Growth
®
1000
Index
rose
14.16%
during
the
fourth
quarter
and
42.68%
for
the
full
year,
the
strongest
year
for
large-cap
growth
stocks
in
many
years.
Late
in
the
year,
the
rally
broadened
out
further
to
included
more
small-
and
mid-cap
names.
Small-cap
growth
stocks
as
measured
by
Russell
2000
®
Growth
Index
(the
“Index”),
returned
12.75%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
pushing
the
index
to
a
solid
18.66%
return
for
the
full
year.
Meanwhile,
the
Russell
Midcap
®
Growth
Index,
delivered
returns
of
14.55%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
and
25.87%
for
the
full
year.
Although
we
definitely
appreciate
the
improved
sentiment
and
interest-rate
outlook,
we
also
acknowledge
that
valuation
of
many
large-cap
growth
stocks
may
have
gotten
ahead
of
themselves.
As
a
result,
in
our
opinion,
smaller-cap
stocks,
especially
within
the
small-cap
growth
style
box,
may
appear
especially
attractive
when
compared
to
other
market
segments.
Despite
the
recent
challenges
of
the
rising
rate-hike
cycle,
many
well-funded
and
well-run
smaller-cap
growth
stocks
have
been
resilient
in
the
face
of
rising
rates
when
analyzed
by
their
underlying
fundamentals.
Our
team
is
intensely
focused
on
identifying
potential
opportunities
within
the
secular
growth
investment
universe,
and
we
believe
many
of
these
are
priced
attractively
compared
to
the
broader
market.
Moreover,
we
believe
that
the
multi-year
underperformance
of
some
smaller
and
mid-sized
growth
companies
position
them
favorably
over
the
long
term
from
a
valuation
standpoint,
thus
creating
a
set
up
to
potentially
outperform
many
other
segments
of
the
market.
We
are
convinced
that
we
are
still
in
the
early
stages
of
a
secular
shift
that
is
transforming
how
consumers,
businesses,
and
employees
interact,
especially
after
witnessing
extensive
technological
advancements
and
acceptance
during
the
initial
stages
of
the
pandemic.
What
once
were
upstart
innovative
products
and
services
have
become
mainstream
and
standard
operating
procedure
for
many
companies.
Furthermore,
new
emerging
technologies
such
as
artificial
intelligence
are
poised
to
have
a
significant
impact
in
the
years
ahead,
particularly
among
growth-oriented
investment
styles.
How
did
Victory
RS
Small
Cap
Growth
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
(Class
A
Shares)
returned
19.80%
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
outperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
18.66%.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
seeks
to
provide
long-term
capital
growth
by
investing
primarily
in
small-cap
companies
that
we
believe
have
the
potential
to
produce
sustainable
earnings
growth
over
a
multi-year
horizon.
The
Fund’s
outperformance
relative
to
the
Index
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023
was
driven
by
outperformance
within
the
consumer
staples
and
industrials
sectors,
offset
by
underperformance
in
the
health
care
sector.
Within
the
consumer
staples
sector,
the
largest
driver
of
outperformance
was
BellRing
Brands,
Inc.
(“BellRing”),
an
operator
of
three
major
brands
in
the
convenient
nutrition
sector,
including
Premier
Protein
as
part
of
their
specialized
ready-to-drink
(RTD)
beverages.
We
own
BellRing
due
to
its
strong
market
position,
with
Premier
Protein
leading
the
shakes/RTD
sub-category,
aligning
with
the
growing
trends
of
health,
convenience,
and
snacking
in
the
$17B
U.S.
convenient
nutrition
market,
and
its
attractive
financial
profile
with
solid
growth
potential,
high
customer
loyalty,
and
innovative
products.
The
stock
performed
exceptionally
well
during
2023
given
strong
execution,
leveraging
effective
brand
strategies
and
market
investments
to
drive
a
very
strong
increase
in
net
sales,
showcasing
their
adeptness
in
market
responsiveness
and
strategic
management.
Within
the
health
care
sector,
one
of
the
largest
drivers
of
relative
underperformance
was
Inspire
Medical
Systems,
Inc.
(“Inspire”),
a
medical
technology
company
focused
on
the
development
and
commercialization
of
minimally
invasive
solutions

(continued)
(Unaudited)
for
patients
with
obstructive
sleep
apnea.
We
own
Inspire
given
its
promising
minimally
invasive
stimulation
therapy
for
sleep
apnea,
relatively
low
current
market
penetration
and
anticipated
catalysts
supporting
outsized
growth,
and
durable
competitive
advantages.
The
stock
underwhelmed
in
2023
given
concerns
over
the
impact
of
Glucagon-like
peptide-1
(“GLP1s”)
weight-loss
drugs
on
the
sleep
apnea
space.
The
negative
market
reaction
stemmed
from
concerns
raised
during
an
earnings
call
about
how
GLP1s
might
affect
Inspire’s
position
in
the
sleep
apnea
market.
We
believe
this
concern
is
overblown
and
that
GLP1s
may
have
a
path
to
where
they
increase
the
funnel
for
new
patients
that
are
currently
disqualified
given
their
high
body
mass.
Outlook
We
are
cautiously
optimistic
about
the
health
of
the
domestic
economy
in
2024
and
are
excited
about
the
prospect
that
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
is
done
hiking
interest
rates.
While
the
full
impact
on
the
economy
is
yet
unclear,
a
healthy
pullback
in
economic
activity,
if
coupled
with
solid
employment
statistics
could
augur
a
very
favorable
back
drop
for
growth
stocks.
We
remain
optimistic
about
the
productivity
of
workers
and
consumers
as
well
as
the
capital
investment
environment
for
businesses
as
we
finished
the
year.
Certain
areas
of
the
economy
appear
better
positioned
to
adapt
and
grow,
while
company
valuations
vary
significantly
across
styles.
In
the
current
investment
landscape,
we
believe
there
is
a
notable
opportunity
for
secular
growth
companies
outside
of
the
mega-
cap
growth
category.
Despite
their
relative
underperformance
since
November
2020,
smaller-cap
secular
growth
companies
have
displayed
continued
strength
in
their
underlying

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
After
a
rocky
start
to
the
fourth
quarter
in
October
2023,
investors
came
to
the
conclusion
that
the
rate-hike
cycle
was
drawing
to
a
close.
With
that
prospect,
corporate
earnings
and
economic
growth
continued
to
surpass
expectations,
while
many
measures
of
inflation
moderated.
With
perceptions
of
inflation
fears
in
the
rear-view
mirror,
equities
rallied
and
delivered
strong
absolute
returns
in
November
and
December.
Interestingly,
we
did
see
a
shift
in
market
internals
as
cyclical
and
defensive
areas
gave
way
to
longer
duration
growth
stocks.
We
believe
this
may
be
the
beginning
of
a
true
change
in
leadership
and
harbinger
of
things
to
come.
The
general
sense
of
optimism
was
clearly
evident
in
the
broader
market,
as
the
S&P
500
®
Index
rallied
more
than
11%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
bringing
the
full
year
gains
to
more
than
26%.
This
is
quite
the
rebound
from
a
disappointing
2022.
Importantly,
growth
stocks
across
capitalizations
rebounded
sharply
this
past
year
as
well.
Large-cap
growth
was
the
story
for
much
of
the
year
with
the
proverbial
Magnificent
Seven
garnering
much
media
attention,
though
other
growth
sectors
also
participated
even
as
they
received
less
fanfare.
Large-cap
growth
stocks
as
measured
by
the
Russell
Growth
®
1000
Index
rose
14.16%
during
the
fourth
quarter
and
42.68%
for
the
full
year,
the
strongest
year
for
large-cap
growth
stocks
in
many
years.
Late
in
the
year,
the
rally
broadened
out
further
to
included
more
small-
and
mid-cap
names.
Small-cap
growth
stocks
as
measured
by
Russell
2000
®
Growth
Index,
returned
12.75%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
pushing
the
index
to
a
solid
18.66%
return
for
the
full
year.
Meanwhile,
the
Russell
Midcap
®
Growth
Index,
delivered
returns
of
14.55%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
and
25.87%
for
the
full
year.
Although
we
appreciate
the
improved
sentiment
and
interest-rate
outlook,
we
also
acknowledge
that
valuation
of
many
large-cap
growth
stocks
may
have
gotten
ahead
of
themselves.
As
a
result,
in
our
opinion,
smaller-cap
stocks,
especially
within
the
small-
cap
growth
style
box,
may
appear
especially
attractive
when
compared
to
other
market
segments.
Despite
the
recent
challenges
of
the
rising
rate-hike
cycle,
many
well-funded
and
well-run
smaller-cap
growth
stocks
have
been
resilient
in
the
face
of
rising
rates
when
analyzed
by
their
underlying
fundamentals.
Our
team
continues
to
be
intensely
focused
on
identifying
potential
opportunities
within
the
secular
growth
investment
universe,
and
we
believe
many
of
these
are
priced
attractively
compared
to
the
broader
market.
Moreover,
we
believe
that
the
multi-year
underperformance
of
some
smaller
and
mid-sized
growth
companies
position
them
favorably
over
the
long
term
from
a
valuation
standpoint,
thus
creating
a
set
up
to
potentially
outperform
many
other
segments
of
the
market.
We
are
convinced
that
we
are
still
in
the
early
stages
of
a
secular
shift
that
is
transforming
how
consumers,
businesses,
and
employees
interact,
especially
after
witnessing
extensive
technological
advancements
and
acceptance
during
the
initial
stages
of
the
pandemic.
What
once
were
upstart
innovative
products
and
services
have
become
mainstream
and
standard
operating
procedure
for
many
companies.
Furthermore,
new
emerging
technologies
such
as
artificial
intelligence
are
poised
to
have
a
significant
impact
in
the
years
ahead,
particularly
among
growth-oriented
investment
styles.
How
did
Victory
RS
Select
Growth
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
(Class
A
Shares)
returned
18.63%
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
underperforming
the
Russell
2500™
Growth
Index
(the
“Index”),
which
returned
18.93%.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
seeks
to
provide
long-term
capital
growth
by
investing
primarily
in
small-
and
mid-cap
companies
that
we
believe
have
the
potential
to
produce
sustainable
earnings
growth
over
a
multi-year
horizon.
The
Fund’s
underperformance
relative
to
the
Index
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023
was
driven
by
stock
selection
within
the
health
care
sector.
Stock
selection
in
the
consumer
staples
and
consumer
discretionary
sectors
offset
a
portion
of
the
Fund’s
underperformance.
Within
the
health
care
sector,
one
of
the
largest
drivers
of
underperformance
was
Insulet,
Corp.,
a
medical
device
company
focused
on
Continuous
Glucose
Monitoring
(CGM)
systems
and
services
for
the
large
addressable
diabetes
market.
We
like
the
company’s
position
in
this
large,
untapped
market
and
believe
that
Insulet
has
many
identifiable
and
durable
competitive
advantages.
The
stock
underwhelmed
in
2023
given
concerns
over
the
impact
of
Glucagon-like-peptide-1
(“GLP1s”)
weight-loss
drugs
on
the
diabetes
space.
The
negative
market
reaction
stemmed
from
concerns
about
how
GLP1s
might
affect
the
overall
size
of
the
diabetes
market
if
massive
swaths
of
consumers
gain
access
to
these
new
drugs
and
avoid
developing
diabetes.
We
believe
this
concern
is
overblown
and
that
GLP1s
may
have
many
long-term
health
benefits
for
many
patients,
while
others
struggle
to
keep
the
weight
off.
Additionally,
the
market
will
grow
naturally
for
Insulet’s
products
outside
of
the
obesity
led
diabetes
category.

Managers’
Commentary
(continued)
(Unaudited)
Within
the
consumer
staples
sector,
one
of
the
largest
drivers
of
outperformance
was
BellRing
Brands,
Inc.
(“BellRing”),
an
operator
of
three
major
brands
in
the
convenient
nutrition
sector,
including
Premier
Protein
as
part
of
their
specialized
ready-
to-drink
(“RTD”)
beverages.
We
own
BellRing
due
to
its
strong
market
position,
with
Premier
Protein
leading
the
shakes/RTD
sub-category,
aligning
with
the
growing
trends
of
health,
convenience,
and
snacking
in
the
$17B
U.S.
convenient
nutrition
market,
and
its
attractive
financial
profile
with
solid
growth
potential,
high
customer
loyalty,
and
innovative
products.
The
stock
performed
exceptionally
well
during
2023
given
strong
execution,
leveraging
effective
brand
strategies
and
market
investments
to
drive
a
very
strong
increase
in
net
sales,
showcasing
their
adeptness
in
market
responsiveness
and
strategic
management.
Within
the
consumer
discretionary
sector,
one
of
the
largest
drivers
of
outperformance
was
apparel
company,
Abercrombie
&
Fitch
Co.,
(“Abercrombie
&
Fitch”).
Abercrombie
&
Fitch
is
experiencing
a
renaissance
in
their
brand
and
as
such
has
been
appealing
to
a
younger
demographic
in
a
post-Covid,
more
casual,
less
flashy
apparel
environment.
Younger
consumers
are
resonating
with
Abercrombie
&
Fitch’s
subtle
fashion
style,
affordable
price
points,
and
durability.
After
years
of
lagging
metrics,
the
company
has
executed
well
across
multiple
fronts:
sales
growth,
margin
improvement,
inventory
management
and
returns
on
capital
and
investors
are
taking
notice
of
the
turnaround
at
Abercrombie
&
Fitch.
The
stock
performed
extremely
well
in
the
fourth
quarter
as
investors
applauded
these
efforts
with
multiple
expansions
on
top
of
increased
earnings.
Outlook
We
are
cautiously
optimistic
about
the
health
of
the
domestic
economy
in
2024
and
are
excited
about
the
prospect
that
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
is
done
hiking
interest
rates.
While
the
full
impact
on
the
economy
is
yet
unclear,
a
healthy
pullback
in
economic
activity,
if
coupled
with
solid
employment
statistics
could
augur
a
very
favorable
back
drop
for
growth
stocks.
We
remain
optimistic
about
the
productivity
of
workers
and
consumers
as
well
as
the
capital
investment
environment
for
businesses
as
we
finished
the
year.
Certain
areas
of
the
economy
appear
better
positioned
to
adapt
and
grow,
while
company
valuations
vary
significantly
across
styles.
In
the
current
investment
landscape,
we
believe
there
is
a
notable
opportunity
for
secular
growth
companies
outside
of
the
mega-
cap
growth
category.
Despite
their
relative
underperformance
since
November
2020,
smaller-cap
secular
growth
companies
have
displayed
continued
strength
in
their
underlying
fundamentals.
We
anticipate
this
strength
to
persist,
despite
investors
taking
a
pause
on
what
had
been
a
steady
bounce
back
through
the
second
half
of
the
year
given
better-than-expected
execution
and
performance.
Conversely,
more
cyclical
companies
may
face
headwinds
as

after

What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
After
a
rocky
start
to
the
fourth
quarter
in
October
2023,
investors
came
to
the
conclusion
that
the
rate-hike
cycle
was
drawing
to
a
close.
With
that
prospect,
corporate
earnings
and
economic
growth
continued
to
surpass
expectations,
while
many
measures
of
inflation
moderated.
With
perceptions
of
inflation
fears
in
the
rear-view
mirror,
equities
rallied
and
delivered
strong
absolute
returns
in
November
and
December.
Interestingly,
we
did
see
a
shift
in
market
internals
as
cyclical
and
defensive
areas
gave
way
to
longer
duration
growth
stocks.
We
believe
this
may
be
the
beginning
of
a
true
change
in
leadership
and
harbinger
of
things
to
come.
The
general
sense
of
optimism
was
clearly
evident
in
the
broader
market,
as
the
S&P
500
®
Index
rallied
more
than
11%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
bringing
the
full
year
gains
to
more
than
26%.
This
is
quite
the
rebound
from
a
disappointing
2022.
Importantly,
growth
stocks
across
capitalizations
rebounded
sharply
this
past
year
as
well.
Large-cap
growth
was
the
story
for
much
of
the
year
with
the
proverbial
Magnificent
Seven
garnering
much
media
attention,
though
other
growth
sectors
also
participated
even
as
they
received
less
fanfare.
Large-cap
growth
stocks
as
measured
by
the
Russell
Growth
®
1000
Index
rose
14.16%
during
the
fourth
quarter
and
42.68%
for
the
full
year,
the
strongest
year
for
large-cap
growth
stocks
in
many
years.
Late
in
the
year,
the
rally
broadened
out
further
to
included
more
small-
and
mid-cap
names.
Small-cap
growth
stocks
as
measured
by
Russell
2000
®
Growth
Index,
returned
12.75%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
pushing
the
index
to
a
solid
18.66%
return
for
the
full
year.
Meanwhile,
the
Russell
Midcap
®
Growth
Index
(the
“Index”),
delivered
returns
of
14.55%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
and
25.87%
for
the
full
year.
Although
we
appreciate
the
improved
sentiment
and
interest-rate
outlook,
we
also
acknowledge
that
valuation
of
many
large-cap
growth
stocks
may
have
gotten
ahead
of
themselves.
As
a
result,
in
our
opinion,
smaller-cap
stocks,
especially
within
the
small-
cap
growth
style
box,
may
appear
especially
attractive
when
compared
to
other
market
segments.
Despite
the
recent
challenges
of
the
rising
rate-hike
cycle,
many
well-funded
and
well-run
smaller-cap
growth
stocks
have
been
resilient
in
the
face
of
rising
rates
when
analyzed
by
their
underlying
fundamentals.
Our
team
is
intensely
focused
on
identifying
potential
opportunities
within
the
secular
growth
investment
universe,
and
we
believe
many
of
these
are
priced
attractively
compared
to
the
broader
market.
Moreover,
we
believe
that
the
multi-year
underperformance
of
some
smaller
and
mid-sized
growth
companies
position
them
favorably
over
the
long
term
from
a
valuation
standpoint,
thus
creating
a
set
up
to
potentially
outperform
many
other
segments
of
the
market.
We
are
convinced
that
we
are
still
in
the
early
stages
of
a
secular
shift
that
is
transforming
how
consumers,
businesses,
and
employees
interact,
especially
after
witnessing
extensive
technological
advancements
and
acceptance
during
the
initial
stages
of
the
pandemic.
What
once
were
upstart
innovative
products
and
services
have
become
mainstream
and
standard
operating
procedure
for
many
companies.
Furthermore,
new
emerging
technologies
such
as
artificial
intelligence
are
poised
to
have
a
significant
impact
in
the
years
ahead,
particularly
among
growth-oriented
investment
styles.
How
did
Victory
Mid
Cap
Growth
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
(Class
A
Shares)
returned
17.91%
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
underperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
25.87%.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
seeks
to
provide
long-term
capital
growth
by
investing
primarily
in
mid-cap
companies
that
we
believe
have
the
potential
to
produce
sustainable
earnings
growth
over
a
multi-year
horizon.
The
Fund’s
underperformance
relative
to
the
Index
for
the
twelve-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023
was
driven
by
stock
selection
within
the
health
care
and
consumer
discretionary
sectors,
while
stock
selection
in
consumer
staples
and
energy
offset
a
portion
of
the
Fund’s
negative
relative
performance.
Within
the
health
care
sector,
one
of
the
largest
underperformers
was
West
Pharmaceuticals
Services,
Inc.
(“West”),
a
biopharmaceutical
company
that
is
focused
on
proprietary
packaging,
containment
and
drug
delivery
products,
along
with
analytical
lab
services,
to
biologic,
generic
and
pharmaceutical
drug
customers.
West
is
a
very
defensive
and
steady
health
care
company,
and
during
the
fourth
quarter
the
market
favored
clinical
stage
biotech
and
other
higher-beta
companies.
We
believe
West’s
dominant
market
share
and
strong
competitive
advantages
in
the
biologics
packaging
market
positions
it
well
to
outperform
as
the
industry
recovers,
and
as
such
West
remains
a
core
holding
and
a
unique
way
to
leverage
the
positive
trends
we
see
in
biotech.
Within
the
health
care
sector,
another
driver
of
underperformance
was
Insulet,
Corp.,
a
medical
device
company
focused
on
Continuous
Glucose
Monitoring
(CGM)
systems
and
services
for
the
large
addressable
diabetes
market.
We
like
the
company’s
12
Victory
RS
Mid
Cap
Growth
Fund
Managers’
Commentary
(continued)
(Unaudited)
position
in
this
large,
untapped
market
and
believe
that
Insulet
has
many
identifiable
and
durable
competitive
advantages.
The
stock
also
underwhelmed
in
2023
given
concerns
over
the
impact
of
Glucagon-like
peptide-1
(“GLP1s”)
weight-loss
drugs
on
the
diabetes
space.
The
negative
market
reaction
stemmed
from
concerns
about
how
GLP1s
might
affect
the
overall
size
of
the
diabetes
market
if
massive
swaths
of
consumers
gain
access
to
these
new
drugs
and
avoid
developing
diabetes.
We
believe
this
concern
is
overblown
and
that
GLP1s
may
have
many
long-term
health
benefits
for
many
patients,
while
others
struggle
to
keep
the
weight
off.
Additionally,
the
market
will
grow
naturally
for
Insulet’s
products
outside
of
the
obesity
led
diabetes
category.
Within
the
consumer
staples
sector,
one
of
the
largest
drivers
of
outperformance
was
BellRing
Brands,
Inc.
(“BellRing”),
an
operator
of
three
major
brands
in
the
convenient
nutrition
sector,
including
Premier
Protein
as
part
of
their
specialized
ready-
to-drink
(RTD)
beverages.
We
owned
BellRing
due
to
its
strong
market
position,
with
Premier
Protein
leading
the
shakes/RTD
sub-category,
aligning
with
the
growing
trends
of
health,
convenience,
and
snacking
in
the
$17B
U.S.
convenient
nutrition
market,
and
its
attractive
financial
profile
with
solid
growth
potential,
high
customer
loyalty,
and
innovative
products.
The
stock
performed
exceptionally
well
during
the
most
recent
quarter
given
strong
execution,
leveraging
effective
brand
strategies
and
market
investments
to
drive
a
strong
increase
in
net
sales.
We
exited
the
position
in
the
fourth
quarter.
Within
the
energy
sector,
the
largest
contributor
to
relative
outperformance
was
Diamondback
Energy,
Inc.
(“Diamondback”),
an
exploration
and
production
(E&P)
company
focused
primarily
in
the
Permian
basin.
Diamondback
has
proven
for
many
years
to
be
best-in-class
operator
with
superior
returns
on
invested
capital
due
to
a
low-cost
drilling
competitive
advantage
and
because
of
the
quality
of
their
acreage.
In
2023,
when
quality
mattered
in
the
E&P
sector,
Diamondback
delivered
strong
cash
flow
that
was
used
to
buy
back
stock,
pay
dividends
and
reduce
debt.
The
company
also
managed
a
balanced
production
growth
plan
that
lived
within
cash
flow,
a
development
that
rewarded
investors
handsomely.
Outlook
We
are
cautiously
optimistic
about
the
health
of
the
domestic
economy
in
2024
and
are
excited
about
the
prospect
that
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
is
done
hiking
interest
rates.
While
the
full
impact
on
the
economy
is
yet
unclear,
a
healthy
pullback
in
economic
activity,
if
coupled
with
solid
employment
statistics
could
augur
a
very
favorable
back
drop
for
growth
stocks.
We
remain
optimistic
about
the
productivity
of
workers
and
consumers
as
well
as
the
capital
investment
environment
for
businesses
as
we
finished
the
year.
Certain
areas
of
the
economy
appear
better
positioned
to
adapt
and
grow,
while
company
valuations
vary
significantly
across
styles.
In
the
current
investment
landscape,
we
believe
there
is
a
notable
opportunity
for
secular
growth
companies
outside
of
the
mega-
cap
growth
category.
Despite
their
relative
underperformance
since
November
2020,
smaller-cap
secular
growth
companies
have
displayed
continued
strength
in
their
underlying
fundamentals.
We
anticipate
this
strength
to
persist,
despite
investors
taking
a
pause
on
what
had
been
a
steady
bounce
back
through
the
second
half
of
the
year
given
better-than-expected
execution
and
performance.
Conversely,
more
cyclical
companies
may
face
headwinds
as
valuations
have
caught
up
to
fundamentals
after
a
strong
run
since
late
2020.
Overall,
while
uncertainty
remains,
we
believe
that
opportunities
will
emerge
in
sectors
and
industries
that
demonstrate
resilience
and
sustained
growth.
We
feel
that
secular
growth
companies
within
the
growth
universe
are
particularly
attractive
due
to
their
strong
fundamentals
and
potential
for
continued
outperformance.
Holdings
are
subject
to
change.

procedure
for
many
companies.
Furthermore,
new
emerging
technologies
such
as
artificial
intelligence
are
poised
to
have
a
significant
impact
in
the
years
ahead,
particularly
among
growth-oriented
investment
styles.
How
did
Victory
RS
Growth
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
(Class
A
Shares)
returned
44.65%
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
outperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
42.68%.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
seeks
to
provide
long-term
capital
growth
by
investing
primarily
in
large-cap
companies
that
we
believe
have
the
potential
to
produce
sustainable
earnings
growth
over
a
multi-year
horizon.
The
Fund’s
outperformance
relative
to
the
Index
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023
was
driven
by
stock
selection
within
the
technology,
industrials,
and
consumer
staples
sectors,
offset
in
part
by
stock
selection
within
the
financial
services
sector.
Within
the
technology
sector,
a
significant
outperformer
was
semiconductor
and
systems
holding
NVIDIA
Corp.
(“NVIDIA”),
a
chip
maker
that
is
benefitting
from
the
rapid
buildout
of
systems
to
handle
the
complex
analysis
of
data
created
by
generative
artificial
intelligence
(“AI”).
We
believe
that
we
are
in
the
early
innings
of
adoption,
and
that
C-level
executives
will
be
building
their
“AI
strategy”
for
the
next
several
years
in
order
to
remain
competitive.
NVIDIA
has
a
dominant
share
and
their
architecture
has
a
unique
competitive
advantage
that
we
believe
should
allow
them
to
gain
share
for
many
years.
We
continue
to
believe
that
NVIDIA’s
first
mover
advantage
will
benefit
their
revenue
and
margin
growth
over
a
multiple
year
basis.
Within
the
industrials
sector,
a
major
contributor
to
outperformance
was
transportation
holding
Old
Dominion
Freight
Line,
Inc.
(“Old
Dominion”),
a
less-than-truckload
(“LTL”)
company
that
engages
in
the
hauling
of
freight
and
logistics
for
a
multitude
of
diversified
end
markets.
We
own
Old
Dominion
because
of
its
demonstrated
growth
momentum
and
strategic
positioning
in
15
Victory
RS
Growth
Fund
Managers’
Commentary
(continued)
(Unaudited)
the
LTL
market
given
its
strong
presence
across
the
United
States
and
for
the
opportunity
for
Old
Dominion
to
gain
share
with
the
impending
bankruptcy
of
Old
Dominion
competitor
Yellow
Freight.
We
believe
Old
Dominion
will
be
clear
winner
in
the
dissolution
of
Yellow’s
service
centers
and
subsequent
customer
defection.
Within
the
consumer
staples
sector,
one
of
the
largest
drivers
of
outperformance
was
BellRing
Brands,
Inc.
(“BellRing”),
an
operator
of
three
major
brands
in
the
convenient
nutrition
sector,
including
Premier
Protein
as
part
of
their
specialized
ready-
to-drink
(RTD)
beverages.
We
owned
BellRing
due
to
its
strong
market
position,
with
Premier
Protein
leading
the
shakes/RTD
sub-category,
aligning
with
the
growing
trends
of
health,
convenience,
and
snacking
in
the
$17B
U.S.
convenient
nutrition
market,
and
its
attractive
financial
profile
with
solid
growth
potential,
high
customer
loyalty,
and
innovative
products.
The
stock
performed
exceptionally
well
during
the
most
recent
quarter
given
strong
execution,
leveraging
effective
brand
strategies
and
market
investments
to
drive
a
strong
increase
in
net
sales.
Within
the
financial
services
sector,
one
of
the
largest
contributors
to
underperformance
was
diversified
financial
services
holding
LPL
Financial
Holdings,
Inc.
(“LPL”),
an
integrated
platform
of
brokerage
and
investment
advisory
services
to
independent
financial
advisors
and
financial
advisors
at
financial
institutions.
Over
the
years,
LPL
has
grown
its
business
and
organization
both
organically
and
through
several
acquisitions
of
other
financial
advisory
firms.
We
initially
purchased
the
stock
given
its
positioning
as
a
pure-play
advisor,
unconflicted
with
product
manufacturing
or
distribution,
which
has
reduced
the
business
model
cyclicality
given
the
shift
to
advisory
and
away
from
brokerage.
The
stock
had
performed
well
in
2022
due
to
strong
organic
growth
coupled
with
sensitivity
to
lower
interest
rates,
and
unfortunately
the
latter
weighed
heavily
on
sentiment
in
2023
and
caused
the
stock
to
underperform
despite
our
bullish
thesis.
We
exited
the
position
to
move
capital
into
other
names
within
the
financial
services
sector
that
did
not
have
exposure
to
lower
rates
ahead.
Outlook
We
are
cautiously
optimistic
about
the
health
of
the
domestic
economy
in
2024
and
are
excited
about
the
prospect
that
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
is
done
hiking
interest
rates.
While
the
full
impact
on
the
economy
is
yet
unclear,
a
healthy
pullback
in
economic
activity,
if
coupled
with
solid
employment
statistics
could
augur
a
very
favorable
back
drop
for
growth
stocks.
We
remain
optimistic
about
the
productivity
of
workers
and
consumers
as
well
as
the
capital
investment
environment
for
businesses
as
we
finished
the
year.
Certain
areas
of
the
economy
appear
better
positioned
to
adapt
and
grow,
while
company
valuations
vary
significantly
across
styles.
In
the
current
investment
landscape,
we
believe
there
is
a
notable
opportunity
for
secular
growth
companies
outside
of
the
mega-
cap
growth
category.
Despite
their
relative
underperformance
since
November
2020,
smaller-cap
secular
growth
companies
have
displayed
continued
strength
in
their
underlying
fundamentals.
We
anticipate
this
strength
to
persist,
despite
investors
taking
a
pause
on
what
had
been
a
steady
bounce
back
through
the
second
half
of
the
year
given
better-than-expected
execution
and
performance.
Conversely,
more
cyclical
companies
may
face
headwinds
as
valuations
have
caught
up
to
fundamentals
after
a
strong
run
since
late
2020.
Overall,
while
uncertainty
remains,
we
believe
that
opportunities
will
emerge
in
sectors
and
industries
that
demonstrate
resilience
and
sustained
growth.
We
feel
that
secular
growth
companies
within
the
growth
universe
are
particularly
attractive
due
to
their
strong
fundamentals
and
potential
for
continued
outperformance.
Holdings

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
After
a
rocky
start
to
the
fourth
quarter
in
October
2023,
investors
came
to
the
conclusion
that
the
rate-hike
cycle
was
drawing
to
a
close.
With
that
prospect,
corporate
earnings
and
economic
growth
continued
to
surpass
expectations,
while
many
measures
of
inflation
moderated.
With
perceptions
of
inflation
fears
in
the
rear-view
mirror,
equities
rallied
and
delivered
strong
absolute
returns
in
November
and
December.
Interestingly,
we
did
see
a
shift
in
market
internals
as
cyclical
and
defensive
areas
gave
way
to
longer
duration
growth
stocks.
We
believe
this
may
be
the
beginning
of
a
true
change
in
leadership
and
harbinger
of
things
to
come.
The
general
sense
of
optimism
was
clearly
evident
in
the
broader
market,
as
the
S&P
500
®
Index
rallied
more
than
11%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
bringing
the
full
year
gains
to
more
than
26%.
This
is
quite
the
rebound
from
a
disappointing
2022.
Importantly,
growth
stocks
across
capitalizations
rebounded
sharply
this
past
year
as
well.
Large-cap
growth
was
the
story
for
much
of
the
year
with
the
proverbial
Magnificent
Seven
(i.e.,
Apple,
Microsoft,
Alphabet,
Amazon,
Nvidia,
Meta,
and
Tesla)
garnering
much
media
attention,
though
other
growth
sectors
also
participated
even
as
they
received
less
fanfare.
Large-cap
growth
stocks
as
measured
by
the
Russell
Growth
®
1000
Index
rose
14.16%
during
the
fourth
quarter
and
42.68%
for
the
full
year,
the
strongest
year
for
large-cap
growth
stocks
in
many
years.
Late
in
the
year,
the
rally
broadened
out
further
to
included
more
small-
and
mid-cap
names.
Small-cap
growth
stocks,
as
measured
by
Russell
2000
®
Growth
Index,
returned
12.75%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
pushing
the
index
to
a
solid
18.66%
return
for
the
full
year.
Meanwhile,
the
Russell
Midcap
®
Growth
Index,
delivered
returns
of
14.55%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
and
25.87%
for
the
full
year.
Although
we
appreciate
the
improved
sentiment
and
interest-rate
outlook,
we
also
acknowledge
that
valuation
of
many
large-cap
growth
stocks
may
have
gotten
ahead
of
themselves.
As
a
result,
in
our
opinion,
smaller-cap
stocks,
especially
within
the
small-
cap
growth
style
box,
may
appear
especially
attractive
when
compared
to
other
market
segments.
Despite
the
recent
challenges
of
the
rising
rate-hike
cycle,
many
well-funded
and
well-run
smaller-cap
growth
stocks
have
been
resilient
in
the
face
of
rising
rates
when
analyzed
by
their
underlying
fundamentals.
Our
team
continues
to
be
intensely
focused
on
identifying
potential
opportunities
within
the
secular
growth
investment
universe,
and
we
believe
many
of
these
are
priced
attractively
compared
to
the
broader
market.
Moreover,
we
believe
that
the
multi-year
underperformance
of
some
smaller
and
mid-sized
growth
companies
position
them
favorably
over
the
long
term
from
a
valuation
standpoint,
thus
creating
a
set
up
to
potentially
outperform
many
other
segments
of
the
market.
We
are
convinced
that
we
are
still
in
the
early
stages
of
a
secular
shift
that
is
transforming
how
consumers,
businesses,
and
employees
interact,
especially
after
witnessing
extensive
technological
advancements
and
acceptance
during
the
initial
stages
of
the
pandemic.
What
once
were
upstart
innovative
products
and
services
have
become
mainstream
and
standard
operating
procedure
for
many
companies.
Furthermore,
new
emerging
technologies
such
as
artificial
intelligence
are
poised
to
have
a
significant
impact
in
the
years
ahead,
particularly
among
growth-oriented
investment
styles.
How
did
Victory
RS
Science
&
Technology
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
(Class
A
Shares)
returned
32.57%
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
underperforming
the
61.13%
return
by
the
S&P
North
American
Technology
Sector
Index™
(the
“Index”)
and
outperforming
the
26.29%
return
by
the
broader
S&P
500
®
Index.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
seeks
to
provide
long-term
capital
growth
by
investing
in
technology-oriented
companies
across
market
capitalizations
and
sectors
that
we
believe
have
greater
earnings
potential
relative
to
market
expectations.
The
Fund’s
performance
relative
to
the
index
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
was
hindered
by
exposure
to
innovative
companies
within
the
Health
Care
sector,
as
well
as
a
tilt
toward
smaller-cap
companies
relative
to
the
Index.
Within
the
technology
sector,
the
largest
detractor
was
NVIDIA
Corp.
“(NVIDIA”),
a
provider
of
semiconductor
technologies
that
drives
advances
in
artificial
intelligence
(“AI”),
high
performance
computing
(“HPC”),
gaming,
creative
design,
autonomous
vehicles,
and
robotics.
We
had
an
ending
position
of
3.54%
in
NVIDIA,
but
we
were
underweight
the
Index’s
ending
weight
of
7.41%,
largely
owed
to
the
Fund’s
preference
to
own
smaller
cap
names.
NVIDIA
had
an
incredibly
strong
year
on
the
back
of
their
position
in
providing
solutions
to
the
AI
revolution,
as
its
chips
were
in
high
demand.
While
we
continue
to
believe
in
the
NVIDIA
market
position,
we
anticipate
the
AI
tailwinds
to
drive
other
smaller
cap
holdings.

(Unaudited)
Within
the
technology
sector,
another
driver
of
underperformance
was
information
technology
holding
was
Paycom
Software,
a
provider
of
human
capital
management
and
payroll
software.
The
company
has
had
a
compelling
model
of
high
growth
and
high
margins
from
IPO
and
has
been
a
long
held
position
in
the
Fund.
The
company
has
been
a
pioneer
in
the
field
of
payroll
software
and
has
been
transitioning
customers
to
their
vision
of
employee
led
payroll.
While
management
sees
this
as
the
model
of
the
future,
the
effort
in
transitioning
customers
has
proven
to
be
a
detractor
from
productivity.
The
stock
sold
off
meaningfully
in
the
fourth
quarter
as
they
offered
disappointing
results
and
we
moved
on
from
the
position.
Within
the
technology
sector,
another
driver
of
relative
underperformance
was
information
technology
holding
Ambarella,
Inc.
(“Ambarella”),
a
supplier
of
low-power,
high-definition
video
compression,
image
processing
and
computer
vision
semiconductors.
Ambarella
was
a
poor
performer
in
2023
as
global
macro
weakness
and
inventory
digestion
at
its
key
internet
of
things
(“IoT”)
and
automotive
customers
led
to
declining
orders
for
Ambarella’s
products.
Ambarella’s
semiconductors
are
used
in
various
products
including
security
cameras,
surveillance
systems
and
advanced
driver-assistance
systems
(“ADAS”)
in
vehicles.
We
continue
to
own
Ambarella
because
the
IoT
inventory
digestion
is
nearly
complete,
and
we
believe
demand
is
set
to
rebound
in
2024
as
the
macro
environment
improves.
Additionally,
its
computer
vision
technology
and
collaboration
with
Tier
1
automotive
suppliers
Continental
and
Bosch
uniquely
positions
the
company
to
capitalize
on
the
growing
ADAS
adoption
and
ultimately
L2+
to
L4
autonomous
vehicles
over
the
next
decade.
Within
the
technology
sector,
the
largest
driver
of
outperformance
was
software
holding
Varonis
Systems,
Inc.
(“Varonis”).
Varonis
is
a
provider
of
security
software,
especially
in
the
field
of
data
security.
The
company’s
software
helps
organizations
understand
where
data
is
exposed
in
their
organization
and
if
proper
access
controls
to
that
data
is
in
place.
We
initially
purchased
Varonis
as
it
was
transitioning
to
a
term-based
licensing
model.
In
2023,
the
stock
sold
off
after
being
one
of
earlier
companies
to
acknowledge
macro
headwinds
and
using
that
opportunity
to
transition
from
a
term-based
model
to
a
software
as
a
service
(“SaaS”)
model.
The
combination
of
resetting
guidance
and
introducing
a
SaaS
product
positioned
the
stock
to
outperform
in
2023.
Next
year,
this
SaaS
product
should
be
made
available
to
the
installed
base,
which
we
believe
will
drive
earnings
upside.
In
addition,
we
believe
Varonis
stands
to
benefit
from
the
need
for
data
security
as
a
precursor
to
AI
deployments
within
the
enterprise.
Another
contributor
within
the
technology
sector
was
holding
Monolithic
Power
Systems,
Inc.
(“MPWR”),
a
leading
provider
of
high-performance
power
management
integrated
circuits
,
as
new
design
wins,
market
share
gains
and
accelerating
spending
within
data
center
markets
to
support
new
generative
AI
applications
more
than
offset
macro
headwinds
that
negatively
impacted
semiconductor
demand
globally.
We
continue
to
own
MPWR
because
we
believe
its
best-in-class
technology
competitive
advantages
(proprietary
bottom
dead
center
manufacturing
process
that
leads
to
greater
power
efficiency,
higher
levels
of
integration,
smaller
die
size
and
lower
cost
structure)
and
exposure
to
high
growth
markets
with
increasing
semiconductor
content
like
auto,
communications
and
data
centers,
should
drive
consistent
market
share
gains
and
above-market
growth
with
expanding
profitability
and
return
on
invested
capital.
Within
the
health
care
sector,
a
material
contributor
was
biotechnology
holding
Reata
Pharmaceuticals,
Inc.
(“Reata”).
Reata
developed
Skyclarys
for
the
treatment
of
the
rare
disease
Friedreich's
ataxia.
The
company
had
applied
for
approval
of
the
drug
in
2023,
with
a
PDUFA
(Federal
Drug
Administration
(“FDA”)
decision
date)
of
February
28,
2023.
We
determined
through
our
work
that
shares
did
not
appropriately
reflect
the
likelihood
for
Skyclarys
approval
nor
the
drug’s
revenue
prospects,
and
we
established
a
position
in
the
weeks
prior
to
the
PDUFA
date.
On
February
28th,
the
drug
was
indeed
approved
by
the
FDA,
and
on
July
28th
it
was
announced
that
Biogen
had
agreed
to
acquire
Reata
at
$172.50
per
share.
At
that
point,
we
sold
our
position.
Outlook
We
are
cautiously
optimistic
about
the
health
of
the
domestic
economy
in
2024
and
are
excited
about
the
prospect
that
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
is
done
hiking
interest
rates.
While
the
full
impact
on
the
economy
is
yet
unclear,
a
healthy
pullback
in
economic
activity,
if
coupled
with
solid
employment
statistics
could
augur
a
very
favorable
back
drop
for
growth
stocks.
We
remain
optimistic
about
the
productivity
of
workers
and
consumers
as
well
as
the
capital
investment
environment
for
businesses
as
we
finished
the
year.
Certain
areas
of
the
economy
appear
better
positioned
to
adapt
and
grow,
while
company
valuations
vary
significantly
across
styles.
In
the
current
investment
landscape,
we
believe
there
is
a
notable
opportunity
for
secular
growth
companies
outside
of
the
mega-
cap
growth
category.
Despite
their
relative
underperformance
since
November
2020,
smaller-cap
secular
growth
companies
have
displayed
continued
strength
in
their
underlying
fundamentals.
We
anticipate
this
strength
to
persist,
despite
investors
taking
a
pause
on
what
had
been
a
steady
bounce
back
through
the
second
half
of
the
year
given
better-than-expected
execution
and

performance.
Conversely,
more
cyclical
companies
may
face
headwinds
as
valuations
have
caught
up
to
fundamentals
after
a
strong
run
since
late
2020.
Overall,
while
uncertainty
remains,
we
believe
that
opportunities
will
emerge
in
sectors
and
industries
that
demonstrate
resilience
and
sustained
growth.
We
feel
that
secular
growth
companies
within
the

universe
are
particularly
attractive
due
to
their
strong
fundamentals
and
potential
for
continued

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
After
a
rocky
start
to
the
fourth
quarter
in
October
2023,
investors
came
to
the
conclusion
that
the
rate-hike
cycle
was
drawing
to
a
close.
With
that
prospect,
corporate
earnings
and
economic
growth
continued
to
surpass
expectations,
while
many
measures
of
inflation
moderated.
With
perceptions
of
inflation
fears
in
the
rear-view
mirror,
equities
rallied
and
delivered
strong
absolute
returns
in
November
and
December.
Interestingly,
we
did
see
a
shift
in
market
internals
as
cyclical
and
defensive
areas
gave
way
to
longer
duration
growth
stocks.
We
believe
this
may
be
the
beginning
of
a
true
change
in
leadership
and
harbinger
of
things
to
come.
The
general
sense
of
optimism
was
clearly
evident
in
the
broader
market,
as
the
S&P
500
®
Index
rallied
more
than
11%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
bringing
the
full
year
gains
to
more
than
26%.
This
is
quite
the
rebound
from
a
disappointing
2022.
Importantly,
growth
stocks
across
capitalizations
rebounded
sharply
this
past
year
as
well.
Large-cap
growth
was
the
story
for
much
of
the
year
with
the
proverbial
Magnificent
Seven
(i.e.,
Alphabet,
Amazon,
Apple,
Meta,
Microsoft,
Nvidia,
and
Tesla)
garnering
much
media
attention,
though
other
growth
sectors
also
participated
even
as
they
received
less
fanfare.
Large-cap
growth
stocks
as
measured
by
the
Russell
Growth
®
1000
Index
rose
14.16%
during
the
fourth
quarter
and
42.68%
for
the
full
year,
the
strongest
year
for
large-cap
growth
stocks
in
many
years.
Late
in
the
year,
the
rally
broadened
out
further
to
included
more
small-
and
mid-cap
names.
Small-cap
growth
stocks
as
measured
by
Russell
2000
®
Growth
Index
(the
“Index”),
returned
12.75%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
pushing
the
index
to
a
solid
18.66%
return
for
the
full
year.
Meanwhile,
the
Russell
Midcap
®
Growth
Index,
delivered
returns
of
14.55%
during
the
fourth
quarter,
and
25.87%
for
the
full
year.
Although
we
appreciate
the
improved
sentiment
and
interest-rate
outlook,
we
also
acknowledge
that
valuation
of
many
large-cap
growth
stocks
may
have
gotten
ahead
of
themselves.
As
a
result,
in
our
opinion,
smaller-cap
stocks,
especially
within
the
small-
cap
growth
style
box,
may
appear
especially
attractive
when
compared
to
other
market
segments.
Despite
the
recent
challenges
of
the
rising
rate-hike
cycle,
many
well-funded
and
well-run
smaller-cap
growth
stocks
have
been
resilient
in
the
face
of
rising
rates
when
analyzed
by
their
underlying
fundamentals.
Our
team
continues
to
be
intensely
focused
on
identifying
potential
opportunities
within
the
secular
growth
investment
universe,
and
we
believe
many
of
these
are
priced
attractively
compared
to
the
broader
market.
Moreover,
we
believe
that
the
multi-year
underperformance
of
some
smaller
and
mid-sized
growth
companies
position
them
favorably
over
the
long
term
from
a
valuation
standpoint,
thus
creating
a
set
up
to
potentially
outperform
many
other
segments
of
the
market.
We
are
convinced
that
we
are
still
in
the
early
stages
of
a
secular
shift
that
is
transforming
how
consumers,
businesses,
and
employees
interact,
especially
after
witnessing
extensive
technological
advancements
and
acceptance
during
the
initial
stages
of
the
pandemic.
What
once
were
upstart
innovative
products
and
services
have
become
mainstream
and
standard
operating
procedure
for
many
companies.
Furthermore,
new
emerging
technologies
such
as
artificial
intelligence
are
poised
to
have
a
significant
impact
in
the
years
ahead,
particularly
among
growth-oriented
investment
styles.
How
did
Victory
RS
Small
Cap
Equity
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
(Class
A
Shares)
returned
7.27%
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
underperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
18.66%.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
seeks
to
provide
long-term
capital
growth
by
investing
primarily
in
small-cap
companies
that
we
believe
have
the
potential
to
produce
sustainable
earnings
growth
over
a
multi-year
horizon.
The
Fund’s
underperformance
relative
to
the
Index
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
was
driven
by
stock
selection
within
the
technology,
health
care
and
financial
services
sectors,
while
stock
selection
in
the
consumer
staples
and
industrials
sector
offset
some
of
the
Fund’s
relative
underperformance.
Within
the
technology
sector,
the
largest
driver
of
underperformance
was
semiconductors
and
components
holding
Impinj,
Inc
“(Impinj”).
Impinj
engages
in
the
development
and
sale
of
RAIN,
a
radio
frequency
identification
solution.
Its
platform
allows
inventory
management,
patient
safety,
asset
tracking,
and
item
authentication
for
the
retail,
health
care,
supply
chain
and
logistics,
hospitality,
food
and
beverage,
and
industrial
manufacturing
industries.
We
initially
purchased
Impinj
as
the
company
is
the
market
leader
for
RAIN
radio
frequency
identification
(“RFID”)
tags,
with
~47%
market
share,
while
they
operate
in
a
huge,
open-ended
growth
opportunity
as
RFID
technology
has
been
around
for
a
while,
but
penetration
is
still
low.
There
were
~20
billion
RFID
tags
produced
in
2020
vs.
a
potential
10
trillion
annual
unit
total
addressable
market,
implying
<0.2%
penetration.
Impinj
was
a
strong
22
Victory
RS
Small
Cap
Equity
Fund
Managers’
Commentary
(continued)
(Unaudited)
performer
in
2022
driven
by
continued
strong
demand
for
RFIDs
and
wafer
upside
from
Taiwan
Semiconductor
Manufacturing
Company,
however,
a
broader
industry
downturn
in
2023
caused
Impinj
to
miss
analyst
expectations
in
2023
and
the
stock
under-
performed
meaningfully.
Within
the
health
care
sector,
a
material
driver
of
relative
underperformance
was
Inspire
Medical
Systems,
Inc.,
a
medical
technology
company
focused
on
the
development
and
commercialization
of
minimally
invasive
solutions
for
patients
with
obstructive
sleep
apnea
.
We
own
Inspire
given
its
promising
minimally
invasive
stimulation
therapy
for
sleep
apnea,
relatively
low
current
market
penetration
and
anticipated
catalysts
supporting
outsized
growth,
and
durable
competitive
advantages.
The
stock
underwhelmed
in
2023
given
concerns
over
the
impact
of
Glucagon-like
peptide-1
(“GLP1s”)
weight-loss
drugs
on
the
sleep
apnea
space.
The
negative
market
reaction
stemmed
from
concerns
raised
during
an
earnings
call
about
how
GLP1s
might
affect
Inspire’s
position
in
the
sleep
apnea
market.
We
believe
this
concern
is
overblown
and
that
GLP1s
may
have
a
path
to
where
they
increase
the
funnel
for
new
patients
that
are
currently
disqualified
given
their
high
body
mass.
Within
the
financial
services
sector,
a
driver
of
underperformance
was
consumer
finance
and
credit
services
holding
Payoneer
Global
Inc.
(“Payoneer”).
Payoneer
simplifies
the
process
for
businesses
to
pay
and
get
paid
globally
with
their
global
payments
/
commerce
platform
that
provides
services
to
both
sides
of
a
two-sided
commerce
network.
We
initially
purchased
Payoneer
given
the
growth
in
their
digital
marketplace
given
the
convenience
they
provide
consumers,
as
well
as
the
expanded
customer
base
they
offer
to
merchants.
We
had
the
view
that
estimates
for
the
company
were
too
low
given
the
large
float
they
hold
on
behalf
of
customers
that
can
now
earn
a
material
interest
in
the
higher
interest
rate
environment.
The
stock
underwhelmed
in
the
calendar
year,
despite
strong
execution
driven
by
the
company’s
growth
and
increased
penetration
of
the
company’s
offerings,
due
to
a
higher-than-expected
ramp
in
forecasted
expenses
in
2023
and
overall
sentiment
for
the
payments
category
and
the
prospect
of
lower
rates
ahead.
We
are
excited
about
the
prospects
for
Payoneer
in
2024
as
they
execute
on
their
growth
initiatives,
regardless
of
the
path
of
rates.
A
meaningful
performer
in
the
consumer
staples
sector
was
BellRing
Brands,
Inc.
(“BellRing”),
an
operator
of
three
major
brands
in
the
convenient
nutrition
sector,
including
Premier
Protein
as
part
of
their
specialized
ready-to-drink
(“RTD”)
beverages.
We
own
BellRing
due
to
its
strong
market
position,
with
Premier
Protein
leading
the
shakes/RTD
sub-category,
aligning
with
the
growing
trends
of
health,
convenience,
and
snacking
in
the
$17B
U.S.
convenient
nutrition
market,
and
its
attractive
financial
profile
with
solid
growth
potential,
high
customer
loyalty,
and
innovative

The
stock
performed
exceptionally
well
during
2023
given
strong

leveraging
effective
brand

and
market
investments
to
drive
a
very
strong
increase
in
net

showcasing
their
adeptness
in

A

was

(“Evoqua”).
Evoqua
provides
water
treatment
equipment
and
services,
such
as
filter
presses,
intake
rebuilds,
and
electrocatalytic
services,
as
well
as
sludge
dryers,
digester
covers,
captivator
systems,
and
other
related
technologies
to
the
industrial,
commercial,
and
municipal
water
treatment
markets.
We
purchased
Evoqua
given
its
significant
exposure
to
services,
aftermarket
and
repair
markets,
which
provides
the
company
with
a
diverse
and
large
set
of
end
markets.
The
company
has
experienced
accelerating
organic
growth
the
last
few
years
and
was
executing
well
early
in
2023.
The
company
was
subsequently
acquired
for
a
healthy
premium
early
in
2023
by
Xylem,
Inc.
(“Xylem”).
While
we
were
optimistic
about
the
future
for
Evoqua,
the
valuation
was
compelling
for
Xylem
to
pay
a
meaningful
premium
and
illuminate
the
value
that
lies
within
our
portfolio.
Outlook
We
are
cautiously
optimistic
about
the
health
of
the
domestic
economy
in
2024
and
are
excited
about
the
prospect
that
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
is
done
hiking
interest
rates.
While
the
full
impact
on
the
economy
is
yet
unclear,
a
healthy
pullback
in
economic
activity,
if
coupled
with
solid
employment
statistics
could
augur
a
very
favorable
back
drop
for
growth
stocks.
We
remain
optimistic
about
the
productivity
of
workers
and
consumers
as
well
as
the
capital
investment
environment
for
businesses
as
we
finished
the
year.
Certain
areas
of
the
economy
appear
better
positioned
to
adapt
and
grow,
while
company
valuations
vary
significantly
across
styles.
In
the
current
investment
landscape,
we
believe
there
is
a
notable
opportunity
for
secular
growth
companies
outside
of
the
mega-
cap
growth
category.
Despite
their
relative
underperformance
since
November
2020,
smaller-cap
secular
growth
companies
have
displayed
continued
strength
in
their
underlying
fundamentals.
We
anticipate
this
strength
to
persist,
despite
investors
taking
a
pause
on
what
had
been
a
steady
bounce
back
through
the
second
half
of
the
year
given
better-than-expected
execution
and
performance.
Conversely,
more
cyclical
companies
may
face
headwinds
as
valuations
have
caught
up
to
fundamentals
after
a
strong
run
since
late
2020.

Managers’
Commentary
(continued)
(Unaudited)
Overall,
while
uncertainty
remains,
we
believe
that
opportunities
will
emerge
in
sectors
and
industries
that
demonstrate
resilience
and
sustained
growth.
We
feel
that
secular
growth
companies
within
the
growth
universe
are
particularly
attractive
due
to
their
strong
fundamentals
and
potential
for
continued
outperformance.
Holdings

subject
to
change.
There
is
no

Overview
(Unaudited)
The
performance
data
quoted
represents
past
performance
and
current
returns
may
be
lower
or
higher.
The
investment
return
and
principal
value
will
fluctuate
so
that
an
investor’s
shares,
when
redeemed,
may
be
worth
more
or
less
than
the
original
cost.

the

change
in
a

assuming
the

of
all

if
any.
The

1.
Organization:
Victory
Portfolios
(the
“Trust”)
is
organized
as
a
Delaware
statutory
trust and
the Trust
is
registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“1940
Act”),
as
an
open-end
investment
company.
The
Trust
is
comprised
of 37
funds
and
is
authorized
to
issue
an
unlimited
number
of
shares,
which
are
units
of
beneficial
interest
with a
par
value
of
$0.001
per
share.
The
accompanying
financial
statements
are
those
of
the
following six
Funds
(collectively,
the
“Funds”
and
individually,
a
“Fund”).
Each
Fund is
classified
as
diversified
under
the
1940
Act.
Each
class
of
shares
of
a
Fund
has
substantially
identical
rights
and
privileges
except
with
respect
to
sales
charges,
fees
paid
under
distribution
plans,
expenses
allocable
exclusively
to
each
class
of
shares,
voting
rights
on
matters
solely
affecting
a
single
class
of
shares,
and
the
exchange
privilege
of
each
class
of
shares. Victory
Capital
Management
Inc.
(“VCM”
or
the
“Adviser”)
is
an
indirect
wholly
owned
subsidiary
of
Victory
Capital
Holdings,
Inc.,
a
publicly
traded
Delaware
corporation,
and
a
wholly
owned
direct
subsidiary
of
Victory
Capital
Operating,
LLC.
Under
the
Trust’s
organizational
documents,
its
officers
and
trustees
are
indemnified
against
certain
liabilities
arising
out
of
the
performance
of
their
duties
to
the
Funds.
In
addition,
in
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Funds
enter
into
contracts
with
their
vendors
and
others
that
provide
for
general
indemnifications.
The Funds’
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown,
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Funds.
However,
based
on
experience,
the
Funds
expect
that
risk
of
loss
to
be
remote.
2.
Significant
Accounting
Policies:
The
following
is
a
summary
of
significant
accounting
policies
followed
by
the Funds
in
the
preparation
of their
financial
statements.
 The
policies
are
in
conformity
with
U.S.
Generally
Accepted
Accounting
Principles
(“GAAP”).
The
preparation
of
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
GAAP
requires
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
and
disclosure
of
contingent
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements
and
the
reported
amounts
of
income
and
expenses
for
the
period.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
The
Funds
follow
the
specialized
accounting
and
reporting
requirements
under
GAAP
that
are
applicable
to
investment
companies
under
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946.
Investment
Valuation:
The
Funds
record
investments
at
fair
value.
Fair
value
is
defined
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date.
The
valuation
techniques
described
below
maximize
the
use
of
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs
in
determining
fair
value.
The
inputs
used
for
valuing
the
Funds’
investments
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
securities
Level
2
other
significant
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar
securities,
interest
rates,
or
credit
spreads,
applicable
to
those
securities,
etc.)
Level
3
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
the
Adviser’s
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments)
Changes
in
valuation
techniques
may
result
in
transfers
in
or
out
of
an
assigned
level
within
the
disclosure
hierarchy.
The
inputs
or
methodologies
used
for
valuation
techniques
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risks
associated
with
entering
into
those
investments.
The
Adviser,
appointed
as the
valuation
designee
by the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”),
has
established
the
Pricing
and
Liquidity
Committee
(the
“Committee”),
and
subject
to Board
oversight,
the
Committee
administers
and
oversees
the
Funds’
valuation
policies
and
procedures,
which
were
approved
by
the
Board.
Portfolio
securities
listed
or
traded
on
securities
exchanges,
including
Exchange-Traded
Funds
(“ETFs”),
and
American
Depositary
Receipts,
are
valued
at
the
last
sale
price
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded,
if
available,
or
at
the
Nasdaq
Official
Closing
Price.
If
there
have
been
no
sales
for
that
day
on
the
exchange
or
system,
then
a
security
is
valued
at
the
closing bid
quotation
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded.
In
each
of
these
situations,
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
1
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Investments
in
open-end
investment
companies,
other
than
ETFs, are
valued
at their
net
asset
value
(“NAV”).
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
1 in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
In
the
event
that
price
quotations
or
valuations
are
not
readily
available,
investments
are
valued
at
fair
value
in
accordance
with
procedures
established
by
and
under
the
general
supervision
and
responsibility
of
the
Board.
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
2
or
Level
3
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy,
based
on
the
observability
of
inputs
used
to
determine
the
fair
value.
The
effect
of
fair
value
pricing
is
that
securities
may
not
be
priced
on
the
basis
of
quotations
from
the
primary
market
in
which
they
are
traded
and
the
actual
price
realized
from

A
summary
of
the
valuations
as
of
December
31,
2023,
based
upon
the
three
levels
defined
above,
is
included
in
the
table
below
while
the
breakdown,
by
category,
of
investments
is
disclosed
on
the
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments:
As
of December
31,
2023,
there
were
no
significant transfers
into/out
of
Level
3.
Real
Estate
Investment
Trusts
(“REITs”):
The
Funds
may
invest
in
REITs,
which
report
information
on
the
source
of
their
distributions
annually.
REITs
are
pooled
investment
vehicles
that
invest
primarily
in
income-producing
real
estate
or
real
estate
related
loans
or
interests
(such
as
mortgages).
Certain
distributions
received
from
REITs
during
the
year
are
recorded
as
realized
gains
or
return
of
capital
as
estimated
by
the
Funds
or
when
such
information
becomes
known.
Investment
Companies:
Open-End
Funds:
The
Funds
may
invest
in
portfolios
of
open-end
investment
companies.
These
investment
companies
value
securities
in
their
portfolios
for
which
market
quotations
are
readily
available
at
their
market
values
(generally
the
last
reported
sale
price)
and
all
other
securities
and
assets
at
their
fair
value
by
the
methods
established
by
the
board
of
directors
of
the
underlying
funds.
Investment
Transactions
and
Related
Income:
Changes
in
holdings
of
investments
are
accounted
for
no
later
than
one
business
day
following
the
trade
date.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
however,
investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
trade
date
or
the
last
business
day
of
the
reporting
period.
Interest
income
is
determined
on
the
basis
of
coupon
interest
accrued
and
recorded
daily
 using
the
effective
interest
method
which
adjusts,
where
applicable,
the
amortization
of
premiums
or
accretion
of
discounts. Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Non-cash
dividends
included
in
income,
if
any,
are
recorded
at
the
fair
value
of
the
securities
received. Gains
or
losses
realized
on
sales
of
securities
are
recorded
on
the
identified
cost
basis.

Withholding
taxes
on
interest,
dividends,
and
gains
as
a
result
of
certain
investments
by
the
Funds
have
been
provided
for
in
accordance
with
each
investment’s
applicable
country’s
tax
rules
and
rates.
Securities
Lending:
The
Funds, through
a Securities
Lending
Agreement with
Citibank,
N.A.
(“Citibank”), may
lend
their
securities
to
qualified
financial
institutions,
such
as
certain
broker-dealers
and
banks,
to
earn
additional
income,
net
of
income
retained
by
Citibank. 
Borrowers
are
required
to
initially
secure
their
loans for
collateral
in
the
amount
of
at
least
102%
of
the
value
of
U.S.
securities
loaned
or
at
least
105%
of
the
value
of
non-U.S.
securities
loaned,
marked-to-market
daily.
Any
collateral
shortfalls
associated
with
increases
in
the
valuation
of
the
securities
loaned
are
generally
cured the
next
business
day.
The
collateral
can
be
received
in
the
form
of
cash
collateral
and/or
non-cash
collateral.
Non-
cash
collateral
can
include
U.S.
Government
Securities and
other
securities
as
permitted
by
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(“SEC”)
guidelines.
The
cash
collateral
is
invested
in
short-term
instruments
or
cash
equivalents,
primarily
open-end
investment
companies,
as
noted
on
the
Funds’
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments.
The
Funds
effectively
do not
have
control
of
the
non-cash
collateral
and
therefore
it
is
not
disclosed
on
the
Funds’
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments.
Collateral
requirements
are
determined
daily
based
on
the
value
of
the
Funds’
securities
on
loan
as
of
the
end
of
the prior
business
day. 
During
the
time
portfolio
securities
are
on
loan,
the
borrower
will
pay
the
Funds
any
dividends
or
interest
paid
on
such
securities
plus
any
fee
negotiated
between
the
parties
to
the
lending
agreement.
The
Funds
also
earn
a
return
from
the
collateral.
The
Funds
pay
Citibank
various
fees
in
connection
with
the
investment
of
cash
collateral
and
fees
based
on
the
investment
income
received
from
securities
lending
activities.
Securities
lending
income
(net
of
these
fees)
is
disclosed
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Loans
are
terminable
upon
demand
and
the
borrower
must
return
the
loaned
securities
within
the
lesser
of
one
standard
settlement
period
or
five
business
days. 
Although
risk
is
mitigated
by
the
collateral, a
Fund could
experience
a
delay
in
recovering
its
securities
and
possible
loss
of
income
or
value
if
the
borrower
fails
to
return
them.
In
addition,
there
is
a
risk that
the
value
of
the
short-term
investments
will
be
less
than
the
amount
of
cash
collateral
required
to
be
returned
to
the
borrower.
The
Funds’
agreement
with
Citibank
does
not
include
master
netting
provisions.
Non-cash
collateral
received
by
the
Funds
may
not
be
sold
or
repledged,
except
to
satisfy
borrower
default.
The
following
table
is
a
summary
of
the
Funds’
securities
lending
transactions
as
of
December
31,
2023.
Federal
Income
Taxes:
Each
Fund
intends
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
by
complying
with
the
provisions
available
to
certain
investment
companies,
as
defined
in
applicable
sections
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code,
and
to
make
distributions
of
net
investment
income
and
net
realized
gains
sufficient
to
relieve
it
from
all,
or
substantially
all,
federal
income
taxes.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
financial
statements.
The
Funds
have
a
tax
year
end
of
December
31.
For
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
the
Funds
did
not
incur
any
income
tax,
interest,
or
penalties,
and
have
recorded
no
liability
for
net
unrecognized
tax
benefits
relating
to
uncertain
tax
positions.
Management
of
the
Funds
has
reviewed
tax
positions
taken
in
tax
years
that
remain
subject
to
examination
by
all
major
tax
jurisdictions,
including
federal
(i.e.,
the
last
four
tax
years,
which
includes
the
current
fiscal
tax
year
end).
Management
believes
that
there
is
no
tax
liability
resulting
from
unrecognized
tax
benefits
related
to
uncertain
tax
positions
taken.
Allocations:
Expenses
directly
attributable
to a
Fund
are
charged
to that
Fund,
while
expenses
that
are
attributable
to
more
than
one
fund
in
the
Trust,
or
jointly
with
an
affiliated
trust,
are
allocated
among
the
respective
funds
in
the
Trust
and/or
an
affiliated
trust
based
upon
net
assets
or
another
appropriate
basis.
Income,
expenses
(other
than
class-specific
expenses
such
as
transfer
agent
fees,
state
registration
fees,
printing
fees,
and
12b-1
fees),
and
realized
and
unrealized
gains
or
losses
on
investments
are
allocated
to
each
class
of
shares
based
on
its
relative
net
assets
on
the
date
income
is
earned
or
expenses
and
realized
and
unrealized
gains
and
losses
are
incurred.

be
more
reliable
than
it
otherwise
would
be.
A

the
valuations
as
of
December
31,
2023,
based
upon
the
three
levels
defined
above,
is
included
in
the
table
below
while
the
breakdown,
by
category,
of
investments
is
disclosed
on
the
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments:
As
of December
31,
2023,
there
were
no
significant transfers
into/out
of
Level
3.
Real
Estate
Investment
Trusts
(“REITs”):
The
Funds
may
invest
in
REITs,
which
report
information
on
the
source
of
their
distributions
annually.
REITs
are
pooled
investment
vehicles
that
invest
primarily
in
income-producing
real
estate
or
real
estate
related
loans
or
interests
(such
as
mortgages).
Certain
distributions
received
from
REITs
during
the
year
are
recorded
as
realized
gains
or
return
of
capital
as
estimated
by
the
Funds
or
when
such
information
becomes
known.
Investment
Companies:
Open-End
Funds:
The
Funds
may
invest
in
portfolios
of
open-end
investment
companies.
These
investment
companies
value
securities
in
their
portfolios
for
which
market
quotations
are
readily
available
at
their
market
values
(generally
the
last
reported
sale
price)
and
all
other
securities
and
assets
at
their
fair
value
by
the
methods
established
by
the
board
of
directors
of
the
underlying
funds.
Investment
Transactions
and
Related
Income:
Changes
in
holdings
of
investments
are
accounted
for
no
later
than
one
business
day
following
the
trade
date.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
however,
investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
trade
date
or
the
last
business
day
of
the
reporting
period.
Interest
income
is
determined
on
the
basis
of
coupon
interest
accrued
and
recorded
daily
 using
the
effective
interest
method
which
adjusts,
where
applicable,
the
amortization
of
premiums
or
accretion
of
discounts. Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Non-cash
dividends
included
in
income,
if
any,
are
recorded
at
the
fair
value
of
the
securities
received. Gains
or
losses
realized
on
sales
of
securities
are
recorded
on
the
identified
cost
basis.

Under
the
terms
of
the
expense
limitation agreement, the Funds
have
agreed
to
repay
fees
and
expenses
that
were
waived
or
reimbursed
by
the
Adviser
for
a
period
of
up
to
three
years
(thirty-six
(36)
months)
after
the
waiver
or
reimbursement
took
place,
subject
to
the
lesser
of
any
operating
expense
limits
in
effect
at
the
time
of:
(a)
the
original
waiver
or
expense
reimbursement;
or
(b)
the
recoupment,
after
giving
effect
to
the
recoupment
amount.
The
Funds
have
not
recorded
any
amounts
available
to
be
repaid
to
the
Adviser
as
a
commitment
and
contingency
liability
due
to
an
assessment
that
such
repayments
are
not
probable
at
December
31,
2023.
For
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
the
following
recoupment
amounts

the
Adviser.
As
of December

the
following amounts
are
available
to
be
repaid
to

ratios.

waivers
and
reimbursements
applicable
to

Funds
are
not
available
to
be

Risks:
The
Funds
may
be
subject
to
other
risks
in
addition
to
these
identified
risks.
Equity
Risk
The
value
of
the
equity
securities
in
which
the
Funds
invest
may
decline
in
response
to
developments
affecting
individual
companies
and/or
general
economic
conditions
in
the
United
States
or
abroad.
A
company’s
earnings
or
dividends
may
not
increase
as
expected
(or
may
decline)
because
of
poor
management,
competitive
pressures,
reliance
on
particular
suppliers
or
geographical
regions,
labor
problems
or
shortages,
corporate
restructurings,
fraudulent
disclosures,
man-made
or
natural
disasters,
military
confrontations
or
wars,
terrorism,
public
health
crises,
or
other
events,
conditions,
and
factors.
Price
changes
may
be
temporary
or
last
for
extended
periods.
Market
Risk
Overall
market
risks
may
affect
the
value
of
the
Funds.
Domestic
and
international
factors
such
as
political
events,
war,
terrorism,
trade
disputes,
inflation
rates,
interest
rate
levels,
and
other
fiscal
and
monetary
policy
changes;
cybersecurity
incidents,
pandemics,
and
other
public
health
crises;
sanctions
against
a
particular
foreign
country,
its
nationals,
businesses,
or
industries;
and
related
geopolitical
events,
as
well
as
environmental
disasters
such
as
earthquakes,
fires,
and
floods,
or
other
catastrophes,
may
add
to
instability
in
global
economies
and
markets
generally,
and
may
lead
to
increased
market
volatility.
Global
economies
and
financial
markets
are
highly
interconnected,
which
increases
the
possibility
that
conditions
in
one
country
or
region
might
adversely
affect
issuers
in
another
country
or
region.
The
impact
of
these
and
other
factors
may
be
short-term
or
may
last
for
extended
periods.
Sector Focus
Risk
— 
To
the
extent
the
Funds
focus
in
one
or
more
sectors,
market
or
economic
factors
impacting
those
sectors
could
have
a
significant
effect
on
the
value
of
the
Funds’
investments
and
could
make
the
Funds’
performance
more
volatile.
For
example,
the
values
of
companies
in
the
Information
Technology
sector
are
particularly
vulnerable
to
economic
downturns,
short
product
cycles
and
aggressive
pricing,
market
competition
and
changes
in
government
regulation.
Concentration
Risk
 The
RS
Science
and
Technology
Fund
(herein,
the
Fund)  may
concentrate
its
investments
in
a
particular
industry,
as
the
term
“concentration”
is
used
in
the
1940
Act.
Concentrating
investments
in
the
science
and
technology
related
sectors increases
the
risk
of
loss
because
the
stocks
of
many
or
all
of
the
companies
in
the
sectors
may
decline
in
value
due
to
developments
adversely
affecting
the
sectors.
In
addition,
investors
may
buy
or
sell
substantial
amounts
of
the
Fund’s
shares
in
response
to
factors
affecting
or
expected
to
affect
the sectors,
resulting
in
extreme
inflows
and
outflows
of
cash
into
and
out
of
the
Fund.
Such
inflows
or
outflows
might
affect
management
of
the
Fund
adversely
to
the
extent
they
cause
the
Fund’s
cash
position
or
cash
requirements
to
exceed
normal
levels. 
Science
and
Technology
Investment Risk
— 
Investments
in
science
and
technology
companies
(including
those
within
the
health
care
sector)
may
be
highly
volatile.
Their
values
may
be
adversely
affected
by
such
factors
as,
for
example,
rapid
technological
change,
changes

Many
science

companies
are
small
or
mid-sized
companies
and
may
be
newly

Smaller-Capitalization
Stock
Risk
Small-
and
mid-sized
companies
are
subject
to
a
number
of
risks
not
associated
with
larger,
more
established
companies,
potentially
making
their
stock
prices
more
volatile
and
increasing
the
risk
of
loss.
Smaller
companies
may
have
limited
markets,
product
lines,
or
financial
resources
and
lack
management
experience
and
may
experience
higher
failure
rates
than
larger
companies.

commitment
fees
for
that
amount.
The
purpose
of
the
Line
of
Credit
is
to
meet
temporary
or
emergency
cash
needs.
For
the year
ended
December
31,
2023,
Citibank
received
an
annual
commitment
fee
of
0.15%
on
$300
million
for
providing
the
Line
of
Credit.
Each
Fund
in
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
paid
a
pro-rata
portion
of
the
commitment
fees
plus
any
interest
on
amounts
borrowed.
Interest
is
based
on
the
one-month Secured
Overnight
Financing
Rate
(SOFR)
plus
1.10
percent.
Effective
June
27,
2023,
the
agreement
was
renewed
with
a
termination
date
of
June
24,
2024,
and
the
annual
commitment
fee
of
0.15%
remained
unchanged. Interest
charged
to each
Fund during
the
period,
if
applicable,
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Operations
under
Line
of
credit
fees.
The
Funds
had
no
borrowings
under the
Line
of
Credit
agreement
during
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023.
Interfund
Lending:
The
Trust
and
the
Adviser
rely
on
an
exemptive
order
granted
by
the
SEC
in
March
2017
(the
“Order”),
permitting
the
establishment
and
operation
of
an
Interfund
Lending
Facility
(the
“Facility”).
The
Facility
allows
each
Fund
to
directly
lend
and
borrow
money
to
or
from
any
other
fund
in
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
that
is
permitted
to
participate
in
the
Facility,
relying
upon
the
Order
at
rates
beneficial
to
both
the
borrowing
and
lending
funds.
Advances
under
the
Facility
are
allowed
for
temporary
or
emergency
purposes,
including
the
meeting
of
redemption
requests
that
otherwise
might
require
the
untimely
disposition
of
securities,
and
are
subject
to
each
Fund’s
borrowing
restrictions.
The
interfund
loan
rate
is
determined,
as
specified
in
the
Order,
by
averaging
the
current
repurchase
agreement
rate
and
the
current
bank
loan
rate.
As
a
Borrower
(as
defined
in
the
Order),
interest
charged
to
each
Fund,
if
any,
during
the
period,
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Operations
under
Interfund
lending
fees.
As
a
Lender
(as
defined
in
the
Order),
interest
earned
by
each
Fund,
if
any,
during
the
period,
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Operations
under
Interfund
lending.
The
average
borrowing
or
lending
for
the
days
outstanding
and
average
interest
rate
for
the
Funds
that
utilized
this
Facility
during
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
were
as
follows:
*
Based
on
the
number
of
days
borrowings
were
outstanding
for

year
ended

Federal
Income
Tax
Information:
Dividends
from
net
investment
income,
if
any,
are
declared
and
paid
as
noted
in
the
table
below.
Distributable
net
realized
gains,
if
any,
are
declared
and
distributed
at

annually
from
each

The
amounts
of
dividends
from
net
investment
income
and
distributions
from
net
realized
gains
(collectively,
distributions
to
shareholders)
are
determined
in
accordance
with
federal
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
To
the
extent
these
“book/tax”
differences
are
permanent
in
nature
(e.g.,
net
operating
loss
and
distribution
reclassification),
such
amounts
are
reclassified
within
the
components
of
net
assets
based
on
their
federal
tax-basis
treatment;
temporary
differences
(e.g.,

As

The

New
Regulatory
Pronouncement:
In
October
2022,
the
SEC
adopted
the
Tailored
Shareholder
Reports
Rule
and
form
amendments
that
require,
among
other
things,
mutual
funds
and
ETFs
to
prepare
and
transmit
streamlined
annual
and
semi-annual
shareholder
reports.
In
connection
with
these
amendments,
certain
information
that
was
previously
disclosed
in
shareholder
reports
will
instead
be
made
available
online,
delivered
free
of
charge
upon
request,
and
filed
with
the
SEC
on
a
semi-annual
basis.
Also
in
connection
with
these
amendments,
annual
and
semi-annual
reports
will
be
provided
directly
to
shareholders,
either
in
paper
or
(if
the
shareholder
has
so
elected)
electronically.
Compliance
with
the
rule
and
form
amendments
begins
in
July
2024.
At
this
time,
management
is
evaluating
the
impact
of
these
amendments
on
the
shareholder
reports
for
the
Funds.

Subsequent
Event:
On
December
5,
2023,
the
Board
approved
the
adoption
of
a
conversion
feature
for
Class
R
of
all
the
Funds.
Under
the
relevant
conversion
feature,
effective
after
the
close
of
business
on
March
28,
2024,
all
of
the
issued
and
outstanding
shares
of
Class
R
of
each
Fund
will
be
converted
into
shares
of
Class
A
of
each
Fund.
The
share
class
conversion
will
be
effectuated
on
the
basis
of
the
relative
NAVs
of
the
share
class
without
the
imposition
of
a
sales
charge.
Based
on
the
financial
information
for
the
Funds’
fiscal
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
Class
A
has
lower
gross

In
our

the

in
conformity

generally

Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Funds’
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Funds’
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
Funds
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.
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

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,
2023,
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

one
or
more
of

or
upon

(SEC)
for

Expense
Examples
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
may
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs, including
sales
charges
(loads)
on
purchases;
 and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees
and
other
Fund
expenses.
These
examples
are
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
These
examples
are
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
period
and
held
for
the
entire
period
from
July
1,
2023,
through
December
31,
2023.
The
Actual
Expense
figures
in
the
table
below
provide
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
below,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
The
Hypothetical
Expense
figures
in
the
table
below
provide
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
shareholder
reports
of
other
funds.
Please
note
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
below
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs.
Therefore,
the
hypothetical
expenses
in
the
table
are
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

Considerations
of
the
Board
in
Continuing
the
Investment
Advisory
Agreement
(the
“Agreement”)
The
Board
approved
the
Agreement
on
behalf
of
each
of
the
Funds
at
a
meeting,
which
was
called
for
that
purpose,
on
December
5,
2023.
The
Board
also
considered
information
relating
to
the
Funds
and
the
Agreement
provided
throughout
the
year
and,
more
specifically,
at
the
meetings
on
October
17,
2023
and
December
5,
2023.
In
considering
whether
to
approve
the
Agreement,
the
Board
requested
from
the
Adviser
certain
information
concerning
the
Funds
to
assist
it
in
evaluating
the
terms
of
the
Agreement.
In
response
to
the
request
from
the
Independent
Trustees,
the
Adviser
provided
information
and
reports
relevant
to
the
continuation
of
the
Agreement.
The
Board,
including
the
Independent
Trustees,
evaluated
this
information
along
with
other
information
obtained
throughout
the
year
and
was
advised
by
legal
counsel
to
the
Funds
and
independent
legal
counsel
to
the
Independent
Trustees.
The
Board
considered
each
Fund’s
advisory
fee,
expense
ratio
and
investment
performance
as
significant
factors
in
determining
whether
the
Agreement
should
be
continued.
In
considering
whether
the
compensation
paid
to
the
Adviser
was
fair
and
reasonable,
the
Board
also
evaluated,
among
other
things,
the
following
factors:
The
requirements
of
the
Funds
for
the
services
provided
by
the
Adviser;
The
nature,
quality
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
and
expected
to
be
provided;
The
performance
of
the
Funds
as
compared
to
comparable
funds;
The
fees
payable
for
the
services
and
whether
the
fee
arrangements
provided
for
economies
of
scale
that
would
benefit
Fund
shareholders
as
the
Funds
grow
(acknowledging
that
economies
of
scale
can
be
complex
to
assess
and
typically
are
not
directly
measurable)
and
whether
breakpoints
would
be
appropriate;
Whether
the
fee
would
be
sufficient
to
enable
the
Adviser
to
attract
and
retain
experienced
personnel
and
continue
to
provide
quality
services
to
the
Funds;
The
fees
paid
by
other
clients
of
the
Adviser
whose
accounts
are
managed
in
a
similar
investment
style
and
any
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
clients
compared
to
those
provided
to
the
Funds;
The
total
expenses
of
each
Fund;
Management’s
commitment
to
operating
the
Funds
at
competitive
expense
levels;
The
profitability
of
the
Adviser
(as
reflected
by
comparing
fees
earned
against
an
estimate
of
the
Adviser’s
costs)
with
respect
to
the
Adviser’s
relationship
with
the
Funds;
Research
and
other
service
benefits
received
by
the
Adviser
obtained
through
payment
of
client
commissions
for
securities
transactions;
Other
benefits
received
by
the
Adviser,
and
its
affiliates,
including
revenues
paid
to
the
Adviser,
or
its
affiliates,
by
the
Funds
for
administration
and
fund
accounting
services,
shareholder
services
and
distribution;
The
capabilities
and
financial
condition
of
the
Adviser;
Current
economic
and
industry
trends;
and
The
historical
relationship
between
each
Fund
and
the
Adviser.
The
Board
reviewed
each
Fund’s
current
management
fee,
comprised
of
the
advisory
fee
plus
the
administrative
services
fee
paid
to
the
Adviser,
in
the
context
of
the
Adviser’s
business
and
services
with
respect
to
each
Fund
individually
and
with
respect
to
all
the
funds
as
a
whole.
The
Board
retained
an
independent,
third-party
consultant
to
provide
comparative
information
about
fees,
expenses
and
performance,
and
to
design
and
maintain
a
database
of
relevant
information
designed
to
assist
the
Board
in
retrieving
and
analyzing
comparative
information.
The
Board
met
with
the
consultant
to
review
its
inputs
and
methodologies,
among
other
things.
The
Board
compared
each
Fund’s
gross
management
fee
and
total
operating
expense
ratio
on
a
net
and
gross
basis
with
the
median
gross
management
fee
and
median
expense
ratio
of
a
universe
of
comparable
mutual
funds
compiled
by
the
consultant,
and
a
peer
group
of
funds
with
similar
investment
strategies
selected
by
that
consultant
from
the
universe.
The
Board
reviewed
the
factors
and
methodology
used
by
the
consultant
in
the
selection
of
each
Fund’s
peer
group,
including
the
consultant’s
selection
of
a
broad
universe
of
funds,
the
more
specific
universe
of
comparable
funds,
and
peer
groups
of
funds
with
comparable
investment
strategies
and
asset
levels,
among
other
factors.
The
Board
also
reviewed
any
changes
to
the
consultant’s
methodology
as
compared
to
the
prior
year,
including
those
resulting
from
the
Adviser’s
input,
if
any.
With
respect
to
certain
Funds,
the
Board
also
reviewed
fees
and
other
information
related
to
the
Adviser’s
management
of
similarly
managed
institutional
or
private
accounts,
and
the
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
accounts.
The
Board
noted
that
none
of
the
advisory
fee
arrangements
for
these
Funds
included
breakpoints,
which
would
be
a
structure
that
results
in
reduced
fees
as
a
fund
grows.
The
Board
discussed
with
the
Adviser
whether
breakpoints
in
the
advisory
fees
with
respect
to
certain
Funds
would
be
desirable
or
appropriate
now
or
in
the
future.
The
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
commitment
to
limit
expenses
as
discussed
in
more
detail
below.
For
Funds
with
total
net
expense
ratios
that
ranked
within
the
fourth
quartile
(most
expensive)
in
relation
to
their
peers
as
evaluated
by
a
consultant,
the
Board
requested,
and
the
Adviser
provided,
supplemental
information
about
the
level
of
fees
and
the
nature
of
the
services
provided.
The
Adviser
reviewed
additional
relevant
circumstances,
which
included,
among
other
things,
specialized
strategies,
small
or
decreasing
assets,
or
rapid
or
recent
changes
in
peer
expense
ratios.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
compliance
and
administrative
services
provided
to
the
Funds
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates,
including
the
Adviser’s
oversight
of
the
Funds’
day-to-day
operations
and
oversight
of
Fund
accounting,
assistance
in
meeting
legal
and
regulatory
requirements,
and
other
services
necessary
for
the
operation
of
the
Funds
and
the
Trust.

(Unaudited)
The
Board
found
that
the
gross
annual
management
fee
paid
by
each
Fund
was
within
the
range
of
management
fees
paid
by
each
Fund’s
respective
peer
group.
The
Board
also
found
that
each
Fund’s
Class
A
net
annual
expense
ratio,
taking
into
account
any
shareholder
servicing
or
distribution
fees,
was
reasonable
as
compared
with
each
Fund’s
respective
peer
group.
The
Board
considered
the
Adviser’s
contractual
agreement
with
each
Fund
to
waive
its
fees
and
reimburse
expenses
of
certain
classes
for
a
specified
period
of
time,
as
described
in
the
Fund’s
prospectus.
The
Board
reviewed
each
Fund’s
performance
over
one-,
three-,
five-
and
ten-year
periods
(as
applicable)
against
the
performance
of
the
Fund’s
selected
peer
group
and
benchmark
index.
The
Board
recognized
that
the
performance
of
the
Fund
and
the
peer
group
funds
are
net
of
expenses,
while
the
performance
of
the
benchmark
index
reflects
gross
returns.
The
Board
reviewed
various
other
specific
factors
with
respect
to
each
Fund,
as
described
below.
In
their
deliberations,
the
Trustees
did
not
rank
the
importance
of
any
particular
information
or
factor
considered
and
each
Trustee
may
have
attributed
different
weights
to
various
factors.

group
median
for
all
of
the
periods
reviewed.
The
Board
discussed
with
management
the
Fund’s
underperformance
and
expense
profile,
including
any
steps
taken
by
the
Adviser
or
could
be
taken
in
the
future
to
enhance
performance.
Having
considered,
among
other
things:
(1) the
Fund’s
management
fee
compared
to
comparable
mutual
funds;
(2)
the
Fund’s
total
expense
ratio
compared
to
comparable
mutual
funds;
(3)
that
the
Adviser’s
willingness
to
limit
the
expenses
of
certain
classes
for
a
period
of
time
would
provide
stability
to
the
Fund’s
expenses
for
those
share
classes
during
that
period;
and
(4)
the
Fund’s
performance
during
the
periods
reviewed,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
Agreement
continued
to
be
in
the
best
interests
of
the
Fund’s
shareholders.
Conclusion:
Based
on
its
review
of
the
information
requested
and
provided,
and
following
extended
discussions,
the
Board
determined
that:
(i)
the
Adviser’s
services
benefitted
the
Funds’
shareholders,
particularly
in
light
of
the
nature
of
the
Funds
and
the
services
required
to
support
the
Funds;
(ii)
it
was
generally
satisfied
with
the
nature,
quality
and
extent
of
the
services
provide
by
the
Adviser
to
the
Funds;
and
(iii)
the
Agreement,
on
behalf
of
the
Funds
discussed
above,
was
consistent
with
the
best
interests
of
each
Fund
and
its
shareholders.
Accordingly,
the
Board
unanimously
approved
the
Agreement,
on
behalf
of
each
Fund,
for
an
additional
annual
period
on
the
basis
of
the
foregoing
review
and
discussions
and
the
following
considerations,
among
others:
The
fairness
and
reasonableness
of
the
investment
advisory
fee
payable
to
the
Adviser
under
the
Agreement
in
light
of
the
investment
advisory
services
provided,
the
costs
of
these
services,
the
profitability
of
the
Adviser’s
relationship
with
the
Fund
and
the
comparability
of
the
fee
paid
to
the
fees
paid
by
other
investment
companies;
The
nature,
quality
and
extent
of
the
investment
advisory
services
provided
by
the
Adviser;
The
Adviser’s
entrepreneurial
commitment
to
the
management
of
the
Funds
and
the
creation
of
a
broad-based
family
of
funds,
which
entails
a
substantial
commitment
of
the
Adviser’s
resources
to
the
successful
operation
of
the
Funds;
The
Adviser’s
representations
regarding
its
staffing
and
capabilities
to
manage
the
Funds,
including
the
retention
of
personnel
with
relevant
portfolio
management
experience;
The
Adviser’s
efforts
to
enhance
investment
results
by,
among
other
things,
developing
and
supporting
quality
portfolio
management
teams;
and
The
overall
high
quality
of
the
personnel,
operations,
financial
condition,
investment
management
capabilities,
methodologies
and
perfor-
mance
of
the
Adviser.

Victory
Funds
Letter
to
Shareholders
(Unaudited)
Dear
Shareholder,
What
a
difference
a
year
can
make.
After
enduring
tumultuous
markets
and
steep
drawdowns
in
both
equities
and
bonds
during
2022,
investors
must
be
feeling
a
sense
of
relief.
Despite
the
ongoing
challenges
and
several
bouts
of
elevated
volatility,
we
all
benefitted
from
an
impressive
rebound
in
both
stock
and
bond
markets
during
our
most
recent
annual
reporting
period
ending
December
31,
2023.
Looking
back,
it
wasn’t
clear
sailing
all
year,
and
there
were
plenty
of
twists
and
turns
along
the
way.
The
year
got
off
to
a
quick
start
as
equity
investors
enjoyed
what
could
only
be
described
as
a
relief
rally.
Markets
rebounded
in
January
after
the
excessive
selling
of
2022.
In
the
United
States,
some
of
the
most
beaten
down
growth
sectors
that
were
punished
during
the
period
of
sharply
rising
interest
rates
led
the
market
higher.
But
the
rebound
was
threatened
in
March
due
to
some
unusual
turmoil
within
the
banking
sector,
which
resulted
in
the
collapse
of
a
few
large
regional
banks.
This
ratcheted
up
volatility
for
a
little
while
as
investors
feared
a
wider
banking
crisis;
however,
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”)
took
the
necessary
steps
to
quickly
restore
confidence
in
the
banking
system.
It
also
helped
that
the
Fed
paused
its
rate
hikes
as
inflation
data
finally
began
to
cool.
Financial
markets
resumed
their
rally
in
the
second
quarter
and
into
the
summer,
but
the
momentum
again
reversed
later
in
the
third
quarter.
Investors
wondered
if
the
Fed
would
be
able
to
remove
all
the
excess
liquidity
that
had
been
used
to
support
the
economy
during
the
pandemic
without
causing
a
recession.
Ironically,
good
news
on
the
economy
had
become
bad
news
on
the
interest-rate
outlook.
We
were
all
waiting
for
labor
markets
to
moderate,
which
would
help
keep
wages
in
check
and
ensure
inflation
would
not
worsen.
The
market
began
struggling
with
the
renewed
notion
that
interest
rates
would
remain
“higher-for-longer,”
which
seemingly
became
the
Fed’s
new
mantra.
Deep
into
the
third
quarter
investors
were
dealing
with
yet
another
bout
of
turmoil
as
yields
pushed
higher
and
eventually
peaked
for
the
year.
This
was
widely
interpreted
as
a
warning
sign
for
future
economic
growth,
and
many
pundits
were
also
predicting
an
imminent
recession.
Fortunately,
it
was
a
false
alarm
and
sentiment
flipped
as
we
approached
year-end.
Economic
growth
proved
resilient,
corporate
earnings
continued
to
meet
or
exceed
expectations,
labor
markets
eased,
and
key
measures
of
inflation
moderated.
All
this
gave
the
Fed
the
leeway
to
back
off—and
likely
end—its
historic
rate-hike
campaign.
Not
surprisingly,
the
fourth
quarter
finished
with
a
strong
rally
in
equity
markets,
and
with
declining
yields
and
rising
bond
prices.
Investors
cheered!
In
terms
of
the
numbers,
the
S&P
500
®
Index,
the
bell-weather
proxy
for
our
domestic
stock
market,
delivered
an
impressive
total
return
of
more
than
26%
for
our
annual
reporting
period.
Bonds
also
rebounded
from
a
dreadful
prior
year.
The
Bloomberg
U.S.
Aggregate
Bond
Index—a
proxy
for
a
diversified
fixed
income
portfolio
and
one
that
many
investors
and
institutions
follow
closely—delivered
a
total
return
of
5.53%
for
the
year.
Although
the
story
of
2023
had
a
happy
ending,
it’s
important
to
remember
that
it
was
a
winding
road
replete
with
many
challenges.
As
we
have
championed
before,
it’s
vital
to
remain
calm
in
the
face
of
adversity,
but
it’s
also
important
to
resist
unbridled
optimism
when
markets
rally
strongly. We
believe
the best
approach
is
to
stay
even
keeled
and
unemotional,
and
that
you
should
understand your
own
risk
tolerance,
maintain
a
well-diversified
portfolio
across
asset
classes
and
investment
types,
and
make
a
long-term
plan
and
stick
to
it.
We
still
believe
that’s
the
best
formula
for
success.

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
Reversing
a
steep
decline
in
2022,
international
equities,
as
measured
by
the
MSCI
EAFE
Index
(the
“Index”),
advanced
18.24%
over
the
12
months
ended
December
31,
2023,
as
moderating
inflation
and
decelerating
interest
rates
eased
recession
concerns
and
buoyed
share
prices.
The
year
started
well
as
softening
inflation
and
the
re-opening
of
China
from
its
strict
Covid
policies
encouraged
investors.
The
forced
merger
of
Credit
Suisse
with
UBS
and
the
failures
of
Silicon
Valley
Bank
and
Signature
Bank
in
the
United
States
raised
questions
about
the
health
of
the
banking
sector
and
temporarily
paused
market
gains.
The
information
technology
sector
led
markets
in
the
second
quarter,
supported
by
investor
fervor
around
artificial
intelligence,
while
the
materials
sector
faltered
on
weaker
prices
for
industrial
metals.
International
equities
gave
back
some
first
half
gains
in
the
third
quarter
of
2023,
as
technology
shares
reverted
after
their
strong
first
half
run,
with
energy
stocks
proving
more
resilient.
The
fourth
quarter
saw
stocks
rally
broadly
on
expectations
of
declining
interest
rates
in
2024.
Sectors
poised
to
benefit
from
rate
cuts
such
as
technology,
real
estate
and
industrials
performed
well
for
the
period,
while
energy
underperformed
amid
weaker
fuel
prices.
How
did
Victory
RS
International
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
seeks
to
provide
long-term
capital
appreciation.
The
Fund
returned
19.82%
(Class
A
Shares
at
net
asset
value)
for
the
12
months
ended
December
31,
2023,
the
Index,
which
returned
18.24%
for
the
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
RS
Global
team
employs
a
blended
investment
approach
that
relies
on
both
rigorous
quantitative
techniques
and
experienced
analyst
judgment.
At
the
heart
of
the
investment
process
is
our
proprietary
QVS
(Quality,
Value
and
Sentiment)
Model
(the
“Model”),
which
is
designed
to
identify
companies
that
we
believe
have
the
potential
to
consistently
create
shareholder
value,
are
reasonably
valued,
and
exhibit
favorable
market
sentiment. The
Model
helps
us
focus
our
resources,
as
we
conduct
additional
research
only
on
companies
with
the
strongest
Model
recommendations.
In
our
experience,
making
correct
macro
allocation
calls
can
be
immensely
challenging,
therefore
we
do
not
forecast
regional
performance
and
seek
to
remain
sector-
and
region-neutral
in
constructing
our
portfolios.
In
our
view,
stock
selection
can
be
far
more
impactful
to
strategy
performance
than
allocation.
Positive
stock
selection
in
the
financials,
health
care
and
industrials
sectors
supported
the
Fund’s
performance
relative
to
the
Index
for
the
period.
On
the
other
hand,
stock
selection
was
negative
in
the
communication
services
and
materials
sectors.
From
a
regional
perspective,
positive
stock
selection
in
Europe
and
Japan
contributed
to
relative
results,
while
stock
selection
was
negative
in
the
United
Kingdom
and
Asia/Pacific
ex
Japan.
Country-level
contributors
included
Denmark,
the
Netherlands
and
Germany
while
country
detractors
included
Italy,
the
United
Kingdom
and
an
overweight
allocation
to
Hong
Kong.
Individual
contributors
to
relative
performance
included
Dutch
semiconductor
equipment
provider
ASM
International
NV,
as
well
as
Danish
jewelry
maker
Pandora
A/S
and
Danish
pharmaceutical
provider
Novo
Nordisk
A/S,
Class
B.
Detractors
from
relative
performance
included
beverage
and
spirits
multinational
company
Diageo
PLC,
and
specialty
chemicals
maker
Croda
International
PLC,
both
based
in
the
United
Kingdom.
The
Fund’s
relative
performance
was
also
hampered
by
not
owning
ASML
Holding
NV,
a
Dutch
maker
of
semiconductor
lithography
machines
which
performed
well
within
the
Index.

High
double-digit

are
attributable,
in
part,
to

will
fluctuate
so
that
an

(FOMC)
meeting
in
December,
Fed
Chairman
Jerome
Powell
signaled
a
sustained
pause
with
expectations
for
interest
rate
cuts
in
2024.
As
such,
global
markets
have
reflected
a
significant
sentiment
shift
away
from
their
previous
positioning
in
anticipation
of
“higher-for-longer”
monetary
policy,
recalibrating
expectations
to
when
central
bankers
will
begin
cutting
rates
again.
Latin
America
was
the
best
performing
region
in
the
period,
up
32.7%.
Mexico
(+40.9%),
Peru
(+36.6%),
and
Brazil
(+32.7%)
were
the
top
performers
in
the
region.
The
Mexican
Peso
gained
2.7%
vs.
the
U.S.
dollar
in
the
fourth
quarter,
accentuating
what
has
proven
to
be
a
resilient
investment
boom
driven
by
nearshoring
in
the
North
and
public
infrastructure
investment
in
the
South.
Mexico
has
been
gaining
market
share
in
U.S.
imports,
recently
surpassing
China
and
Canada.
We
believe
a
soft
landing
scenario
in
the
United
States,
coupled
with
the
ongoing
nearshoring
theme
offers
upside
with
the
potential
to
offset
risks
to
an
intensification
of
political
noise
and/or
any
large
fiscal
impulse
ahead
of
elections
next
year.
Peru
surged
on
easing
monetary
policy,
a
strong
currency,
and
improving
fundamentals
reinforced
by
a
package
of
stimulus
measures
aimed
at
boosting
investments,
particularly
in
the
country’s
critical
mining
sector.
Brazilian
markets
continued
to
benefit
from
improving
discussions
concerning
government
revenue
measures
and
the
positive
signal
that
the
fiscal
target
for
the
following
year
would
be
preserved,
all
further
buoyed
by
the
current
interest
rate
easing
cycle.
For
Brazil,
2023
was
marked
by
the
approval
of
a
new
fiscal
framework.
Eastern
Europe,
Middle
East,
and
Africa
(EEMEA)
remained
strong
in
2023,
up
8.3%.
Hungary
(+50.9%),
Greece
(+49.5%)
and
Poland
(+48.6%)
were
the
top
performers
in
the
region.
Hungary
benefited
from
stabilized
financial
conditions,
albeit
weaker
Gross
Domestic
Product
(“GDP”)
growth,
and
expectations
for
the
gradual
normalization
of
monetary
policy.
Both
Greece
and
Poland
surged
on
positive
election
results
delivering
victory
to
their
respective
pro-market
regimes.
Turkey
(-5.7%),
on
the
other
hand,
faced
profit-taking
during
the
period
as
investors
weighed
a
big
structural
shift
based
on
a
credible
mix
of
monetary
and
fiscal
policies,
against
concerns
around
the
execution
of
the
policy
mix,
whether
tightening
will
be
sufficient
to
make
Turkish
assets
attractive
to
non-residents,
and
(most
importantly)
if
politics
can
inevitably
reverse
all
the
progress
that
has
been
achieved
so
far.
Asia
also
performed
well
in
2023,
up
7.8%,
as
broader-based
strength
from
Taiwan
(+30.4%),
South
Korea
(+23.2%),
and
India
(+20.7%)
proved
enough
to
offset
weakness
from
China
(-11.0%).
Taiwan
was
one
of
the
best
performing
markets
overall
in
2023,
rallying
in
January
on
expectations
of
an
earnings
recovery,
in
May/June
due
to
the
Artificial
Intelligence
(“AI”)
theme,
and
in
November
thanks
to
a
combination
of
positive
macroeconomics,
AI,
and
geopolitics.
While
Taiwan
heads
into
presidential
and
parliamentary
elections
on
January
13,
many
anticipate
the
market
will
remain
resilient
after
this
election
overhang
is
removed.
Korea
benefited
from
indications
of
the
memory
sector’s
turnaround
following
supply
cuts
by
producers,
leading
to
faster
inventory
digestion
and
price
recovery,
as
well
as
from
strong
AI-related
demand.
India
remains
a
clear
beneficiary
of
continued
sentiment
around
shifting
supply
chains
away
from
China
amid
geopolitical
tensions
thanks
to
its
large
domestic
market,
low
trade
dependency,
relatively
high
monetary
sovereignty,
and
domestic
structural
reforms.
China’s
economy
remains
stuck
in
a
rut,
with
a
weak
property
market,
muted
consumption,
low
private
sector
capital
expenditure,
net
negative
Foreign
Direct
Investment
(“FDI”),
and
low
confidence.
Indeed,
business
sentiment
in
China
is
at
an
all-time
low
due
to
a
series
of
regulatory
decisions
taken
by
the
Chinese
government
starting
in
the
summer
of
2018,
which
had
been
uncharacteristic
of
the
predictable
regulatory
framework
under
which
the
Chinese
private
sector
flourished
over
the
prior
15
years.
Ultimately,
the
key
issue
facing
China
is
its
high
national
saving
rate
(45%
in
2021
and
as
a
percentage
of
annual
gross
domestic
savings)
and
inability
to
stimulate
consumption.
China
has
continued
to
avoid
material
stimulus
measures,
with
Beijing’s
focus
remaining
on
incremental
easing
even
though
nominal
GDP
growth
has
been
running
below
real
GDP
growth.
Effectively,
this
forces
China
into
a
perpetual
cycle
of
investment
and
exports,
distorting
real
estate
while
creating
global
overcapacities.
Despite
geopolitical
tensions,
deteriorating
U.S.-China
relations,
and
the
diversification
of
supply
chains
away
from
China,
trade
surplus
has
risen,
reflecting
its
increased
exports
to
the
Global
South
even
as
FDI
into
China
has
turned
negative.
The
spike
in
global
inflation
in
2023
resulted
from
three
factors:
supply
chain
issues,
geopolitics/commodity
shocks,
and
fiscal
spending
which
also
had
the
unintended
consequence
of
improving
labor’s
bargaining
power.
In
aggregate,
these
three
forces
significantly
dissipated
over
the
course
of
the
year,
a
trend
which
many
expect
to
continue
into
2024
on
a
global
basis.
The
U.S.
10
Victory
Sophus
Emerging
Markets
Fund
Managers’
Commentary
(continued)
(Unaudited)
dollar
weakened
steadily
over
the
fourth
quarter
as
a
result
of
cooling
inflation
in
the
United
States,
which
has
only
increased
expectations
for
a
Fed
policy
pivot.
We
believe
increased
Fed
easing
expectations
should
be
bearish
for
the
U.S.
dollar
and
therefore
positive
for
Asia
and
other
emerging
markets
equities.
Central
banks
will
have
more
room
to
cut
rates
in
these
countries
due
to
earlier
and
faster
rate
hikes
early
in
the
pandemic
crisis,
and
in
many
cases
less
overt
fiscal
stimulus
packages.
Any
recoveries
in
global
manufacturing
and/or
China’s
economy
would
also
support
global
growth
expectations,
presenting
further
near-term
U.S.
dollar
headwinds.
How
did
Victory
Sophus
Emerging
Markets
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
returned
10.97%
(Class
A
Shares,
without
sales
charge)
for
the
12
months
ended
December
31,
2023,
outperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
9.83%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
We
employ
a
disciplined,
bottom-up
approach
utilizing
both
quantitative
and
fundamental
processes
to
invest
in
companies
that
we
believe
have
the
potential
for
strong
and
sustainable
earnings
growth
at
attractive
valuations,
with
revisions
as
the
catalyst.
By
investing
in
companies
with
these
characteristics,
coupled
with
our
risk-managed
approach,
we
seek
to
provide
consistent
excess
returns
over
time.
Stock
selection
in
the
consumer
discretionary
sector
was
the
largest
contributor
to
relative
performance
overall
in
2023,
thanks
to
overweight
positions
in
PDD
Holdings,
Inc.,
a
Chinese
e-commerce
platform
operator;
Hisense
Home
Appliances,
a
leading
player
among
China’s
tier-2
producers
of
refrigerators
and
air
conditioners;
and
Alsea,
one
of
the
largest
operators
of
quick-service
restaurants
(QSR),
casual-dining
restaurants,
and
coffee
shops
in
Latin
America
as
well
as
in
Europe.
Relative
performance
also
benefited
from
weakness
in
China
and
underweight
positions
in
names
like
Meituan,
Li
Ning,
JD.com,
and
Yum
China,
among
others.
Information
technology
also
contributed
positively
to
relative
performance,
driven
by
positive
stock
selection,
helped
by
holdings
Gold
Circuit
Electronics
Ltd.,
Wiwynn
Corp.,
WUS
Printed
Circuit,
and
King
Yuan
Electronics
Co.,
Ltd.,
among
others.
Information
technology
overall
thrived
throughout
the
year
on
a
combination
of
positive
macroeconomics,
expectations
of
an
earnings
recovery,
investor
fervor
around
AI,
and
geopolitics.
We
essentially
took
a
weight-neutral
approach
in
this
sector.
From
a
country
perspective,
Taiwan
was
the
largest
contributor
to
relative
performance
in
the
year,
due
to
stock
selection,
mostly
in
the
information
technology
space
(as
mentioned
previously).
The
health
care
sector
was
the
largest
detractor
from
relative
performance
in
2023,
driven
by
a
combination
of
our
moderately
overweight
position
(in
a
sector
that
underperformed)
and
negative
stock
selection,
given
poor
performers
we
held
like
Wuxi
Biologics,
CSPC
Pharmaceutical,
Shandong
Weigao,
and
China
Resources
Pharmaceutical.
Competition
issues
across
various
segments
within
Korea
and
regulatory
pricing
pressures
in
China
contributed
to
the
sector’s
poor
performance.
On
a
country
basis,
Saudi
Arabia
detracted
from
relative
performance
due
to
negative
stock
selection,
driven
mostly
by
our
holdings
Saudi
National
Bank,
Sahara
International
Petrochemical,
and
Saudi
Telecom
Co.,
while
our
slightly
underweight
position
in
this
market
also
weighed
negatively
on
relative
performance,
particularly
throughout
the
fourth
quarter
rally.

Under
the
Trust’s

documents,
its
officers

trustees
are
indemnified
against
certain
liabilities
arising
out
of
the
performance
of
their
duties
to
the
Funds.
In
addition,
in
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Funds
enter
into
contracts
with
their
vendors
and
others
that
provide
for
general
indemnifications.
The Funds’
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown,
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Funds.
However,
based
on
experience,
the
Funds
expect
that
risk
of
loss
to
be
remote.

Significant
Accounting
Policies:
The
following
is
a
summary
of
significant
accounting
policies
followed
by
the Funds
in
the
preparation
of their
financial
statements.
 The
policies
are
in
conformity
with
U.S.
Generally
Accepted
Accounting
Principles
(“GAAP”).
The
preparation
of
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
GAAP
requires
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
and
disclosure
of
contingent
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements
and
the
reported
amounts
of
income
and
expenses
for
the
period.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
The
Funds
follow
the
specialized
accounting
and
reporting
requirements
under
GAAP
that
are
applicable
to
investment
companies
under
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946.
Investment
Valuation:
The
Funds
record
investments
at
fair
value.
Fair
value
is
defined
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date.
The
valuation
techniques
described
below
maximize
the
use
of
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs
in
determining
fair
value.
The
inputs
used
for
valuing
the
Funds’
investments
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
securities
Level
2
other
significant
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar
securities,
interest
rates,
or
credit
spreads,
applicable
to
those
securities,
etc.)
Level
3
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
the
Adviser’s
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments)
Changes
in
valuation
techniques
may
result
in
transfers
in
or
out
of
an
assigned
level
within
the
disclosure
hierarchy.
The
inputs
or
methodologies
used
for
valuation
techniques
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risks
associated
with
entering
into
those
investments.
The
Adviser,
appointed
as the
valuation
designee
by the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”),
has
established
the
Pricing
and
Liquidity
Committee
(the
“Committee”),
and
subject
to Board
oversight,
the
Committee
administers
and
oversees
the
Funds’
valuation
policies
and
procedures,
which
were
approved
by
the
Board.
Portfolio
securities
listed
or
traded
on
securities
exchanges,
including
Exchange-Traded
Funds
(“ETFs”),
and
American
Depositary
Receipts,
are
valued
at
the
last
sale
price
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded,
if
available,
or
at
the
Nasdaq
Official
Closing
Price.
If
there
have
been
no
sales
for
that
day
on
the
exchange
or
system,
then
a
security
is
valued
at
the
closing bid
quotation
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded.
In
each
of
these
situations,
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
1
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Investments
in
open-end
investment
companies,
other
than
ETFs, are
valued
at their
net
asset
value
(“NAV”).
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
1 in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
In
the
event
that
price
quotations
or
valuations
are
not
readily
available,
investments
are
valued
at
fair
value
in
accordance
with
procedures
established
by
and
under
the
general
supervision
and
responsibility
of
the
Board.
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
2
or
Level
3
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy,
based
on
the
observability
of
inputs
used
to
determine
the
fair
value.
The
effect
of
fair
value
pricing
is
that
securities
may
not
be
priced
on
the
basis
of
quotations
from
the
primary
market
in
which
they
are
traded
and
the
actual
price
realized
from
the
sale
of
a
security
may
differ
materially
from
the
fair
value
price.
Valuing
these
securities
at
fair
value
is
intended
to
cause
the
Funds’
NAV to
be
more
reliable
than
it
otherwise
would
be.

In
accordance
with
procedures
adopted
by
the
Board,
fair
value
pricing
may
be
used
if
events
materially
affecting
the
value
of
foreign
securities
occur
between
the
time
the
exchange
on
which
they
are
traded
closes
and
the
time
the
Funds’
NAV is
calculated.
The Funds use
a
systematic
valuation
model,
provided
daily
by
an
independent
third
party
to
fair
value
their
international
equity
securities.
These
valuations
are categorized
as
Level
2
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
A
summary
of
the
valuations
as
of
December
31,
2023,
based
upon
the
three
levels
defined
above,
is
included
in
the
table
below
while
the
breakdown,
by
category,
of
investments
is
disclosed
on
the
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments:
As
of December
31,
2023,
there
were
no
significant transfers
into/out
of
Level
3.
Real
Estate
Investment
Trusts
(“REITs”):
The
Funds
may
invest
in
REITs,
which
report
information
on
the
source
of
their
distributions
annually.
REITs
are
pooled
investment
vehicles
that
invest
primarily
in
income-producing
real
estate
or
real
estate
related
loans
or
interests
(such
as
mortgages).
Certain
distributions
received
from
REITs
during
the
year
are
recorded
as
realized
gains
or
return
of
capital
as
estimated
by
the
Funds
or
when
such
information
becomes
known.
Investment
Companies:
Exchange-Traded
Funds:
The Funds
may
invest
in
ETFs,
the
shares
of
which
are
bought
and
sold
on
a
securities
exchange.
An
ETF
trades
like
common
stock
and
represents
a
fixed
portfolio
of
securities
often
designed
to
track
the
performance
and
dividend
yield
of
a
particular
domestic
or
foreign
market
index.
Among
other
purposes,
the
Funds
may
purchase
shares
of
an
ETF
to
temporarily
gain
exposure
to
a
portion
of
the
U.S.
or
a
foreign
market
while
awaiting
purchase
of
underlying
securities.
The
risks
of
owning
an
ETF
generally
reflect
the
risks
of
owning
the
underlying
securities
the
ETF
is
designed
to
track,
although
the
lack
of
liquidity
of
an
ETF
could
result
in
it
being
more
volatile.
Additionally,
ETFs
have
fees
and
expenses
that
reduce
their
value.
Open-End
Funds:
The
Funds
may
invest
in
portfolios
of
open-end
investment
companies.
These
investment
companies
value
securities
in
their
portfolios
for
which
market
quotations
are
readily
available
at
their
market
values
(generally
the
last
reported
sale
price)
and
all
other
securities
and
assets
at
their
fair
value
by
the
methods
established
by
the
board
of
directors
of
the
underlying
funds.
Derivative
Instruments:
Foreign
Exchange
Currency
Contracts:
The Funds
may
enter
into
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts
to
convert
U.S.
dollars
to
and
from
various
foreign
currencies.
A
foreign
exchange
currency
contract
is
an
obligation
by the
Funds
to
purchase
or
sell
a
specific
currency
at
a
future
date
at
a
price
(in
U.S.
dollars)
set
at
the
time
of
the
contract.
The
Funds
do
not
engage
in
“cross-currency”
foreign
exchange
contracts
(i.e.,
contracts
to
purchase
or
sell
one
foreign
currency
in
exchange
for
another
foreign
currency).
The
Funds’
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts
might
be
considered
spot
contracts
(typically
a
contract
of
one
week
or
less)
or
forward
contracts
(typically
a
contract
term
over
one
week).
A
spot
contract
is
entered
into
for
purposes
of
hedging
against
foreign
currency
fluctuations
relating
to
a
specific
portfolio
transaction,
such
as
the
delay
between
a
security
transaction
trade
date
and
settlement
date.
Forward
contracts
are
entered
into
for
purposes
of
hedging
portfolio
holdings
or
concentrations
of
such
holdings.
Each
foreign
exchange
currency
contract
is
adjusted
daily
by
the
prevailing
spot
or
forward
rate
of
the
underlying
currency,
and
any
appreciation
or
depreciation
is
recorded
for
financial
statement
purposes
as
unrealized
until
the
contract
settlement
date,
at
which
time
the
Funds
record
realized
gains
or
losses
equal
to
the
difference
between
the
value
of
a
contract
at
the
time
it
was
opened
and
the
value
at
the
time

it
was
closed. The
Funds
could
be
exposed
to
risk
if
a
counterparty
is
unable
to
meet
the
terms
of
a
foreign
exchange
currency
contract
or
if
the
value
of
the
foreign
currency
changes
unfavorably.
In
addition,
the
use
of
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts
does
not
eliminate
fluctuations
in
the
underlying
prices
of
the
securities.
The
Funds
enter
into
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts
solely
for
spot
or
forward
hedging
purposes,
and
not
for
speculative
purposes
(i.e.,
the
Funds
do
not
enter
into
such
contracts
solely
for
the
purpose
of
earning
foreign
currency
gains).
 As
of December
31,
2023,
the
Funds
had
no
open
forward
foreign
exchange
currency
contracts.
Investment
Transactions
and
Related
Income:
Changes
in
holdings
of
investments
are
accounted
for
no
later
than
one
business
day
following
the
trade
date.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
however,
investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
trade
date
or
the
last
business
day
of
the
reporting
period.
Interest
income
is
determined
on
the
basis
of
coupon
interest
accrued
and
recorded
daily
 using
the
effective
interest
method
which
adjusts,
where
applicable,
the
amortization
of
premiums
or
accretion
of
discounts. Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Non-cash
dividends
included
in
income,
if
any,
are
recorded
at
the
fair
value
of
the
securities
received. Gains
or
losses
realized
on
sales
of
securities
are
recorded
on
the
identified
cost
basis.
Withholding
taxes
on
interest,
dividends,
and
gains
as
a
result
of
certain
investments
by
the
Funds
have
been
provided
for
in
accordance
with
each
investment’s
applicable
country’s
tax
rules
and
rates.
Securities
Lending:
The
Funds, through
a Securities
Lending
Agreement with
Citibank,
N.A.
(“Citibank”), may
lend
their
securities
to
qualified
financial
institutions,
such
as
certain
broker-dealers
and
banks,
to
earn
additional
income,
net
of
income
retained
by
Citibank. 
Borrowers
are
required
to
initially
secure
their
loans for
collateral
in
the
amount
of
at
least
102%
of
the
value
of
U.S.
securities
loaned
or
at
least
105%
of
the
value
of
non-U.S.
securities
loaned,
marked-to-market
daily.
Any
collateral
shortfalls
associated
with
increases
in
the
valuation
of
the
securities
loaned
are
generally
cured the
next
business
day.
The
collateral
can
be
received
in
the
form
of
cash
collateral
and/or
non-cash
collateral.
Non-
cash
collateral
can
include
U.S.
Government
Securities and
other
securities
as
permitted
by
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(“SEC”)
guidelines.
The
cash
collateral
is
invested
in
short-term
instruments
or
cash
equivalents,
primarily
open-end
investment
companies,
as
noted
on
the
Funds’
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments.
The
Funds
effectively
do not
have
control
of
the
non-cash
collateral
and
therefore
it
is
not
disclosed
on
the
Funds’
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments.
Collateral
requirements
are
determined
daily
based
on
the
value
of
the
Funds’
securities
on
loan
as
of
the
end
of
the prior
business
day. 
During
the
time
portfolio
securities
are
on
loan,
the
borrower
will
pay
the
Funds
any
dividends
or
interest
paid
on
such
securities
plus
any
fee
negotiated
between
the
parties
to
the
lending
agreement.
The
Funds
also
earn
a
return
from
the
collateral.
The
Funds
pay
Citibank
various
fees
in
connection
with
the
investment
of
cash
collateral
and
fees
based
on
the
investment
income
received
from
securities
lending
activities.
Securities
lending
income
(net
of
these
fees)
is
disclosed
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Loans
are
terminable
upon
demand
and
the
borrower
must
return
the
loaned
securities
within
the
lesser
of
one
standard
settlement
period
or
five
business
days. 
Although
risk
is
mitigated
by
the
collateral, a
Fund could
experience
a
delay
in
recovering
its
securities
and
possible
loss
of
income
or
value
if
the
borrower
fails
to
return
them.
In
addition,
there
is
a
risk that
the
value
of
the
short-term
investments
will
be
less
than
the
amount
of
cash
collateral
required
to
be
returned
to
the
borrower.
The
Funds’
agreement
with
Citibank
does
not
include
master
netting
provisions.
Non-cash
collateral
received
by
the
Funds
may
not
be
sold
or
repledged,
except
to
satisfy
borrower
default.
As
of
December
31,
2023,
the
Funds
did
not
have
any
securities
on
loan.
Foreign
Currency
Translations:
The
accounting
records
of
the
Funds
are
maintained
in
U.S.
dollars.
Investment
securities
and
other
assets
and
liabilities
of
a
Fund
denominated
in
a
foreign
currency
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
current
exchange
rates.
Purchases
and
sales
of
securities,
income
receipts
and
expense
payments
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
the
exchange
rates
on
the
date
of
the
transactions.
The
Funds
do
not
isolate
the
portion
of
the
results
of
operations
resulting
from
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
on
investments
from
fluctuations
arising
from
changes
in
market
prices
of
securities
held.
Such
fluctuations,
if
any, are
disclosed
as
Net
change
in
unrealized
appreciation/depreciation
on investment
securities
and
foreign
currency
translations
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Any
realized
gains
or
losses
from
these
fluctuations,
if
any, are
disclosed
as
Net
realized
gains
(losses)
from
investment
securities
and
foreign
currency
transactions
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Foreign
Taxes:
The
Funds
may
be
subject
to
foreign
taxes
related
to
foreign
income
received
(a
portion
of
which
may
be
reclaimable),
capital
gains
on
the
sale
of
securities,
and
certain
foreign
currency
transactions.
All
foreign
taxes
are
recorded
in
accordance
with
the
applicable
regulations
and
rates
that
exist
in
the
foreign
jurisdictions
in
which
the
Funds
invest.
Federal
Income
Taxes:
Each
Fund
intends
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
by
complying
with
the
provisions
available
to
certain
investment
companies,
as
defined
in
applicable
sections
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code,
and
to
make
distributions
of
net
investment
income
and
net
realized
gains
sufficient
to
relieve
it
from
all,
or
substantially
all,
federal
income
taxes.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
financial
statements.
The
Funds
have
a
tax
year
end
of
December
31.
For
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
the
Funds
did
not
incur
any
income
tax,
interest,
or
penalties,
and
have
recorded
no
liability
for
net
unrecognized

of
the

has
reviewed
tax
positions
taken
in
tax
years

jurisdictions,
including
federal
(i.e.,

taken.

Risks:
The
Funds
may
be
subject
to
other
risks
in
addition
to
these
identified
risks.
Equity
Risk
The
value
of
the
equity
securities
in
which
the
Funds
invest
may
decline
in
response
to
developments
affecting
individual
companies
and/or
general
economic
conditions
in
the
United
States
or
abroad.
A
company’s
earnings
or
dividends
may
not
increase
as
expected
(or
may
decline)
because
of
poor
management,
competitive
pressures,
reliance
on
particular
suppliers
or
geographical
regions,
labor
problems
or
shortages,
corporate
restructurings,
fraudulent
disclosures,
man-made
or
natural
disasters,
military
confrontations
or
wars,
terrorism,
public
health
crises,
or
other
events,
conditions,
and
factors.
Price
changes
may
be
temporary
or
last
for
extended
periods.
Foreign
Securities
Risk
Foreign
securities
(including
depositary
receipts)
are
subject
to
political,
regulatory,
and
economic
risks
not
present
in
domestic
investments.
Foreign
securities
could
be
affected
by
factors
not
present
in
the
United
States,
including
expropriation,
confiscation
of
property,
and
difficulties
in
enforcing
contracts.
Compared
to
U.S.
companies,
there
generally
is
less
publicly
available
information
about
foreign
companies
and
there
may
be
less
governmental
regulation
and
supervision
of
foreign
companies.
Foreign
securities
generally
experience
more
volatility
than
their
domestic
counterparts.
Depositary
receipts
may
have
additional
risks,
including
creditworthiness
of
the
depositary
bank
and
the
risk
of
an
illiquid
market.
In
addition,
to
the
extent
investments
are
made
in
a
limited
number
of
countries,
events
in
those
countries
will
have
a
more
significant
impact
on
the
Funds.
Fluctuations
in
the
exchange
rates
between
the
U.S.
dollar
and
foreign
currencies,
currency
exchange
control
regulations,
and
restrictions
or
prohibitions
on
the
repatriation
of
foreign
currencies
may
negatively
affect
an
investment.

Certain
Russian
securities
held
by
the
Funds
had
declared
dividends,
however
there
is
no
assurance
these
dividends
can
be
collected
by
the
Funds.
As
a
result,
all
such
dividend
receivables
related
to
these
Russian
securities
are
valued
at
zero
as
of
the
current
fiscal
year-end
Emerging
Markets
Risk
The
risks
related
to
investing
in
foreign
securities
are
generally
greater
with
respect
to
securities
of
companies
that
conduct
their
business
activities
in
emerging
markets
or
whose
securities
are
traded
principally
in
emerging
markets.
The
risks
of
investing
in
emerging
markets
include
the
risks
of
illiquidity,
increased
price
volatility,
smaller-market
capitalizations,
limited
reliable
access
to
capital,
less
government
regulation
(including
limitations
on
the
available
rights
and
remedies),
market
manipulation
concerns,
less
extensive
and
less
frequent
recordkeeping,
accounting,
financial
and
other
reporting
requirements,
risk
of
loss
resulting
from
problems
in
share
registration
and
custody,
risks
related
to
foreign
investment
structures,
substantial
economic
and
political
disruptions
and
the
nationalization
of
foreign
deposits
or
assets.
Market
Risk
Overall
market
risks
may
affect
the
value
of
the
Funds.
Domestic
and
international
factors
such
as
political
events,
war,
terrorism,
trade
disputes,
inflation
rates,
interest
rate
levels,
and
other
fiscal
and
monetary
policy
changes;
cybersecurity
incidents,
pandemics,
and
other
public
health
crises;
sanctions
against
a
particular
foreign
country,
its
nationals,
businesses,
or
industries;
and
related
geopolitical
events,
as
well
as
environmental
disasters
such
as
earthquakes,
fires,
and
floods,
or
other
catastrophes,
may
add
to
instability
in
global
economies
and
markets
generally,
and
may
lead
to
increased
market
volatility.
Global
economies
and
financial
markets
are
highly
interconnected,
which
increases
the
possibility
that
conditions
in
one
country
or
region
might
adversely
affect
issuers
in
another
country
or
region.
The
impact
of
these
and
other
factors
may
be
short-term
or
may
last
for
extended
periods.

Borrowing
and
Interfund
Lending:
Line
of
Credit:
The
Victory
Funds
Complex
participates
in
a
short-term
demand
note
“Line
of
Credit”
agreement
with
Citibank.
Under
the
agreement
with
Citibank,
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
may
borrow
up
to
$600
million,
of
which
$300
million
is
committed
and
$300
million
is
uncommitted.
$40
million
of
the
Line
of
Credit
is
reserved
for
use
by
the
Victory
Floating
Rate
Fund,
another
series
of
the
Victory
Funds
Complex,
with
Victory
Floating
Rate
Fund
paying
the
related
commitment
fees
for
that
amount.
The
purpose
of
the
Line
of
Credit
is
to
meet
temporary
or
emergency
cash
needs.
For
the year
ended
December
31,
2023,
Citibank
received
an
annual
commitment
fee
of
0.15%
on
$300
million
for
providing
the
Line
of
Credit.
Each
Fund
in
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
paid
a
pro-rata
portion
of
the
commitment
fees
plus
any
interest
on
amounts
borrowed.
Interest
is
based
on
the
one-month Secured
Overnight
Financing
Rate
(SOFR)
plus
1.10
percent.
Effective
June
27,
2023,
the
agreement
was
renewed
with
a
termination
date
of
June
24,
2024,
and
the
annual
commitment
fee
of
0.15%
remained
unchanged. Interest
charged
to each
Fund during
the
period,
if
applicable,
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Operations
under
Line
of
credit
fees.

for
the

*
Based
on
the
number

days
borrowings
were
outstanding
for
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023.
Interfund
Lending:
The
Trust
and
the
Adviser
rely
on
an
exemptive
order
granted
by
the
SEC
in
March
2017
(the
“Order”),
permitting
the
establishment
and
operation
of
an
Interfund
Lending
Facility
(the
“Facility”).
The
Facility
allows
each
Fund
to
directly
lend
and
borrow
money
to
or
from
any
other
fund
in
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
that
is
permitted
to
participate
in
the
Facility,
relying
upon
the
Order
at
rates
beneficial
to
both
the
borrowing
and
lending
funds.
Advances
under
the
Facility
are
allowed
for
temporary
or
emergency
purposes,
including
the
meeting
of
redemption
requests
that
otherwise
might
require
the
untimely
disposition
of
securities,
and
are
subject
to
each
Fund’s
borrowing
restrictions.
The
interfund
loan
rate
is
determined,
as
specified
in
the
Order,
by
averaging
the
current
repurchase
agreement
rate
and
the
current
bank
loan
rate.
As
a
Borrower
(as
defined
in
the
Order),
interest
charged
to
each
Fund,
if
any,
during
the
period,
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Operations
under
Interfund
lending
fees.
As
a
Lender
(as
defined
in
the
Order),
interest
earned
by
each
Fund,
if
any,
during
the
period,
is
reflected
on
the
Statements

Operations
under
Interfund
lending.

Federal
Income
Tax
Information:
Dividends
from
net
investment
income,
if
any,
are
declared
and
paid
as
noted
in
the
table
below.
Distributable
net
realized
gains,
if
any,
are
declared
and
distributed
at
least
annually
from
each
Fund. 
The
amounts
of
dividends
from
net
investment
income
and
distributions
from
net
realized
gains
(collectively,
distributions
to
shareholders)
are
determined
in
accordance
with
federal
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
To
the
extent
these
“book/tax”
differences
are
permanent
in
nature
(e.g.,
net
operating
loss
and
distribution
reclassification),
such
amounts
are
reclassified
within
the
components
of
net
assets
based
on
their
federal
tax-basis
treatment;
temporary
differences
(e.g.,
wash
sales)
do
not
require
reclassification.
To
the
extent
dividends
and
distributions
exceed
net
investment
income
and
net
realized
gains
for
tax
purposes,
they
are
reported
as
distributions
of
capital.
Net
investment
losses
incurred
by
the
Funds
may
be
reclassified
as
an
offset
to
capital
on
the
accompanying
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
As
of
December
31,
2023,
on
the
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities,
there
were
no
permanent
book-to-tax
difference
reclassification
adjustments.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
during
the
tax
years
ended,
as
noted
below,
were
as
follows
(total
distributions
paid
may
differ
from
the
Statements
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets
because,
for
tax
purposes,
dividends
are
recognized
when
actually
paid).
As
of
December
31,
2023,
the
components
of
accumulated
earnings/(loss)
on
a
tax
basis
were
as
follows:
*
The
difference
between
the
book-basis
and
tax-basis
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
is
attributable
primarily
to
tax
deferral
of
losses
on
wash
sales,
forward
contracts, and
passive
foreign
investment
company
adjustments.
As
of December
31,
2023,
the
Funds
had
net
capital
loss
carryforwards
as
shown
in
the
table
below. It
is
unlikely
that
the
Board
will
authorize
a
distribution
of
capital
gains
realized
in
the
future
until
the
capital
loss
carryforwards
have
been
used.
As
of December
31,
2023,
the

basis
for
federal
income
tax
purposes,
gross

New
Regulatory
Pronouncement:
In
October
2022,
the
SEC
adopted
the
Tailored
Shareholder
Reports
Rule
and
form
amendments
that
require,
among
other
things,
mutual
funds
and
ETFs
to
prepare
and
transmit
streamlined
annual
and
semi-annual
shareholder
reports.
In
connection
with
these
amendments,
certain
information
that
was
previously
disclosed
in
shareholder
reports
will
instead
be
made
available
online,
delivered
free
of
charge
upon
request,
and
filed
with
the
SEC
on
a
semi-annual
basis.
Also
in
connection
with
these
amendments,
annual
and
semi-annual
reports
will
be
provided
directly
to
shareholders,
either
in
paper
or
(if
the
shareholder
has
so
elected)
electronically.
Compliance
with
the
rule
and
form
amendments
begins
in
July
2024.
At
this
time,
management
is
evaluating
the
impact
of
these
amendments
on
the
shareholder
reports

Opinion
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statements
of
assets
and
liabilities,
including
the
schedules
of
portfolio
investments,
of
Victory
RS
International
Fund,
Victory
RS
Global
Fund,
and
Victory
Sophus
Emerging
Markets
Fund
(the
“Funds”),
each
a
series
of
Victory
Portfolios,
as
of
December
31,
2023,
the
related
statements
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
related
notes,
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
then
ended
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
statements”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Funds
as
of
December
31,
2023,
the
results
of
their
operations
for
the
year
then
ended,
the
changes
in
net
assets
for
each
of
the
two
years
in
the
period
then
ended,
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
then
ended,
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Funds’
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Funds’
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
Funds
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.
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,
2023,
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
of
the
investment
companies
advised
by
Victory
Capital
Management
Inc.
since

Expense
Examples
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
may
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs, including
sales
charges
(loads)
on
purchases;
 and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees
and
other
Fund
expenses.
These
examples
are
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
These
examples
are
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
period
and
held
for
the
entire
period
from
July
1,
2023,
through
December
31,
2023.
The
Actual
Expense
figures
in
the
table
below
provide
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
below,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
The
Hypothetical
Expense
figures
in
the
table
below
provide
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
shareholder
reports
of
other
funds.
Please
note
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
below
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs.
Therefore,
the
hypothetical
expenses
in
the
table
are
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

Considerations
of
the
Board
in
Continuing
the
Investment
Advisory
Agreement
(the
“Agreement”)
The
Board
approved
the
Agreement
on
behalf
of
each
of
the
Funds
at
a
meeting,
which
was
called
for
that
purpose,
on
December
5,
2023.
The
Board
also
considered
information
relating
to
the
Funds
and
the
Agreement
provided
throughout
the
year
and,
more
specifically,
at
the
meetings
on
October
17,
2023
and
December
5,
2023.
In
considering
whether
to
approve
the
Agreement,
the
Board
requested
from
the
Adviser
certain
information
concerning
the
Funds
to
assist
it
in
evaluating
the
terms
of
the
Agreement.
In
response
to
the
request
from
the
Independent
Trustees,
the
Adviser
provided
information
and
reports
relevant
to
the
continuation
of
the
Agreement.
The
Board,
including
the
Independent
Trustees,
evaluated
this
information
along
with
other
information
obtained
throughout
the
year
and
was
advised
by
legal
counsel
to
the
Funds
and
independent
legal
counsel
to
the
Independent
Trustees.
The
Board
considered
each
Fund’s
advisory
fee,
expense
ratio
and
investment
performance
as
significant
factors
in
determining
whether
the
Agreement
should
be
continued.
In
considering
whether
the
compensation
paid
to
the
Adviser
was
fair
and
reasonable,
the
Board
also
evaluated,
among
other
things,
the
following
factors:
The
requirements
of
the
Funds
for
the
services
provided
by
the
Adviser;
The
nature,
quality
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
and
expected
to
be
provided;
The
performance
of
the
Funds
as
compared
to
comparable
funds;
The
fees
payable
for
the
services
and
whether
the
fee
arrangements
provided
for
economies
of
scale
that
would
benefit
Fund
shareholders
as
the
Funds
grow
(acknowledging
that
economies
of
scale
can
be
complex
to
assess
and
typically
are
not
directly
measurable)
and
whether
breakpoints
would
be
appropriate;
Whether
the
fee
would
be
sufficient
to
enable
the
Adviser
to
attract
and
retain
experienced
personnel
and
continue
to
provide
quality
services
to
the
Funds;
The
fees
paid
by
other
clients
of
the
Adviser
whose
accounts
are
managed
in
a
similar
investment
style
and
any
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
clients
compared
to
those
provided
to
the
Funds;
The
total
expenses
of
each
Fund;
Management’s
commitment
to
operating
the
Funds
at
competitive
expense
levels;
The
profitability
of
the
Adviser
(as
reflected
by
comparing
fees
earned
against
an
estimate
of
the
Adviser’s
costs)
with
respect
to
the
Adviser’s
relationship
with
the
Funds;
Research
and
other
service
benefits
received
by
the
Adviser
obtained
through
payment
of
client
commissions
for
securities
transactions;
Other
benefits
received
by
the
Adviser,
and
its
affiliates,
including
revenues
paid
to
the
Adviser,
or
its
affiliates,
by
the
Funds
for
administration
and
fund
accounting
services,
and
distribution;
The
capabilities
and
financial
condition
of
the
Adviser;
Current
economic
and
industry
trends;
and
The
historical
relationship
between
each
Fund
and
the
Adviser.
The
Board
reviewed
each
Fund’s
current
management
fee,
comprised
of
the
advisory
fee
plus
the
administrative
services
fee
paid
to
the
Adviser,
in
the
context
of
the
Adviser’s
business
and
services
with
respect
to
each
Fund
individually
and
with
respect
to
all
the
funds
as
a
whole.
The
Board
retained
an
independent,
third-party
consultant
to
provide
comparative
information
about
fees,
expenses
and
performance,
and
to
design
and
maintain
a
database
of
relevant
information
designed
to
assist
the
Board
in
retrieving
and
analyzing
comparative
information.
The
Board
met
with
the
consultant
to
review
its
inputs
and
methodologies,
among
other
things.
The
Board
compared
each
Fund’s
gross
management
fee
and
total
operating
expense
ratio
on
a
net
and
gross
basis
with
the
median
gross
management
fee
and
median
expense
ratio
of
a
universe
of
comparable
mutual
funds
compiled
by
the
consultant
and
a
peer
group
of
funds
with
similar
investment
strategies
selected
by
that
consultant
from
the
universe.
The
Board
reviewed
the
factors
and
methodology
used
by
the
consultant
in
the
selection
of
each
Fund’s
peer
group,
including
the
consultant’s
selection
of
a
broad
universe
of
funds,
the
more
specific
universe
of
comparable
funds,
and
peer
groups
of
funds
with
comparable
investment
strategies
and
asset
levels,
among
other
factors.
The
Board
also
reviewed
any
changes
to
the
consultant’s
methodology
as
compared
to
the
prior
year,
including
those
resulting
from
the
Adviser’s
input,
if
any.
With
respect
to
certain
Funds,
the
Board
also
reviewed
fees
and
other
information
related
to
the
Adviser’s
management
of
similarly
managed
institutional
or
private
accounts,
and
the
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
accounts.
The
Board
noted
that
none
of
the
advisory
fee
arrangements
for
these
Funds
included
breakpoints,
which
would
be
a
structure
that
results
in
reduced
fees
as
a
fund
grows.
The
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
commitment
to
limit
expenses
as
discussed
in
more
detail
below.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
compliance
and
administrative
services
provided
to
the
Funds
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates,
including
the
Adviser’s
oversight
of
the
Funds’
day-to-day
operations
and
oversight
of
Fund
accounting,
assistance
in
meeting
legal
and
regulatory
requirements,
and
other
services
necessary
for
the
operation
of
the
Funds
and
the
Trust.
The
Board
found
that
the
gross
annual
management
fee
paid
by
each
Fund
was
within
the
range
of
management
fees
paid
by
each
Fund’s
respective
peer
group.
The
Board
also
found
that
each
Fund’s
Class
A
net
annual
expense
ratio,
taking
into
account
any
shareholder
servicing
or
distribution
fees,
was
reasonable
as
compared
with
each
Fund’s
respective
peer
group.
The
Board
considered
the
Adviser’s
contractual
agreement
with
each
Fund
to
waive
its
fees
and
reimburse
expenses
of
certain
classes
for
a
specified
period
of
time,
as
described
in
the
Fund’s
prospectus.

Conclusion:
Based
on
its
review
of
the
information
requested
and
provided,
and
following
extended
discussions,
the
Board
determined
that:
(i)
the
Adviser’s
services
benefitted
the
Funds’
shareholders,
particularly
in
light
of
the
nature
of
the
Funds
and
the
services
required
to
support
the
Funds;
(ii)
it
was
generally
satisfied
with
the
nature,
quality
and
extent
of
the
services
provide
by
the
Adviser
to
the
Funds;
and
(iii)
the
Agreement,
on
behalf

discussed
above,
was
consistent
with
the
best
interests
of
each
Fund
and
its
shareholders.
Accordingly,
the
Board
unanimously
approved
the
Agreement,
on
behalf
of
each

for
an
additional
annual
period
on
the
basis
of

advisory
fee
payable
to

under

in
light
of
the
investment
advisory
services
provided,
the
costs
of
these
services,
the
profitability
of
the

fee
paid

of
the
investment
advisory
services
provided

Adviser’s
resources
to
the
successful
operation
of

Victory
Funds
Letter
to
Shareholders
(Unaudited)
Dear
Shareholder,
What
a
difference
a
year
can
make.
After
enduring
tumultuous
markets
and
steep
drawdowns
in
both
equities
and
bonds
during
2022,
investors
must
be
feeling
a
sense
of
relief.
Despite
the
ongoing
challenges
and
several
bouts
of
elevated
volatility,
we
all
benefitted
from
an
impressive
rebound
in
both
stock
and
bond
markets
during
our
most
recent
annual
reporting
period
ending
December
31,
2023.
Looking
back,
it
wasn’t
clear
sailing
all
year,
and
there
were
plenty
of
twists
and
turns
along
the
way.
The
year
got
off
to
a
quick
start
as
equity
investors
enjoyed
what
could
only
be
described
as
a
relief
rally.
Markets
rebounded
in
January
after
the
excessive
selling
of
2022.
In
the
United
States,
some
of
the
most
beaten
down
growth
sectors
that
were
punished
during
the
period
of
sharply
rising
interest
rates
led
the
market
higher.
But
the
rebound
was
threatened
in
March
due
to
some
unusual
turmoil
within
the
banking
sector,
which
resulted
in
the
collapse
of
a
few
large
regional
banks.
This
ratcheted
up
volatility
for
a
little
while
as
investors
feared
a
wider
banking
crisis;
however,
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”)
took
the
necessary
steps
to
quickly
restore
confidence
in
the
banking
system.
It
also
helped
that
the
Fed
paused
its
rate
hikes
as
inflation
data
finally
began
to
cool.
Financial
markets
resumed
their
rally
in
the
second
quarter
and
into
the
summer,
but
the
momentum
again
reversed
later
in
the
third
quarter.
Investors
wondered
if
the
Fed
would
be
able
to
remove
all
the
excess
liquidity
that
had
been
used
to
support
the
economy
during
the
pandemic
without
causing
a
recession.
Ironically,
good
news
on
the
economy
had
become
bad
news
on
the
interest-rate
outlook.
We
were
all
waiting
for
labor
markets
to
moderate,
which
would
help
keep
wages
in
check
and
ensure
inflation
would
not
worsen.
The
market
began
struggling
with
the
renewed
notion
that
interest
rates
would
remain
“higher-for-longer,”
which
seemingly
became
the
Fed’s
new
mantra.
Deep
into
the
third
quarter
investors
were
dealing
with
yet
another
bout
of
turmoil
as
yields
pushed
higher
and
eventually
peaked
for
the
year.
This
was
widely
interpreted
as
a
warning
sign
for
future
economic
growth,
and
many
pundits
were
also
predicting
an
imminent
recession.
Fortunately,
it
was
a
false
alarm
and
sentiment
flipped
as
we
approached
year-end.
Economic
growth
proved
resilient,
corporate
earnings
continued
to
meet
or
exceed
expectations,
labor
markets
eased,
and
key
measures
of
inflation
moderated.
All
this
gave
the
Fed
the
leeway
to
back
off—and
likely
end—its
historic
rate-hike
campaign.
Not
surprisingly,
the
fourth
quarter
finished
with
a
strong
rally
in
equity
markets,
and
with
declining
yields
and
rising
bond
prices.
Investors
cheered!
In
terms
of
the
numbers,
the
S&P
500
®
Index,
the
bell-weather
proxy
for
our
domestic
stock
market,
delivered
an
impressive
total
return
of
more
than
26%
for
our
annual
reporting
period.
Bonds
also
rebounded
from
a
dreadful
prior
year.
The
Bloomberg
U.S.
Aggregate
Bond
Index—a
proxy
for
a
diversified
fixed
income
portfolio
and
one
that
many
investors
and
institutions
follow
closely—delivered
a
total
return
of
5.53%
for
the
year.
Although
the
story
of
2023
had
a
happy
ending,
it’s
important
to
remember
that
it
was
a
winding
road
replete
with
many
challenges.
As
we
have
championed
before,
it’s
vital
to
remain
calm
in
the
face
of
adversity,
but
it’s
also
important
to
resist
unbridled
optimism
when
markets
rally
strongly. We
believe
the best
approach
is
to
stay
even
keeled
and
unemotional,
and
that
you
should
understand your
own
risk
tolerance,
maintain
a
well-diversified
portfolio
across
asset
classes
and
investment
types,
and
make
a
long-term
plan
and
stick
to
it.
We
still
believe
that’s
the
best
formula
for
success.

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
During
the
reporting
period,
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”)
continued
its
rate
hiking
cycle
and
raised
the
Fed
funds
rate
by
an
additional
100
basis
points
(a
basis
point
is
1/100th
of
a
percentage
point).
The
Fed
concluded
2023
with
a
target
policy
rate
of
5.25-5.50%,
keeping
monetary
policy
restrictive
to
combat
inflation.
Inflation
as
measured
by
the
Consumer
Price
Index,
a
widely
recognized
inflation
yardstick,
ended
the
reporting
period
at
3.4%,
above
the
Fed’s
2%
target.
While
the
Treasury
yield
curve
normally
positively
sloped,
it
was
inverted
throughout
the
reporting
period
as
investors
weighed
the
risk
of
tighter
financial
conditions
leading
to
a
recession.
One
common
indicator
of
a
potential
recession
is
a
negative
spread
(i.e.
inversion)
between
the
3-month
Treasury
bill
and
the
10-year
Treasury
bond.
This
means
the
market
is
expecting
the
Fed
to
begin
cutting
the
Fed
funds
rate
as
the
economy
is
expected
to
slow
and
possibly
slip
into
a
recession.
The
U.S.
regional
banking
crisis
in
March
brought
uncertainty
and
inflamed
recessionary
concerns,
spreading
over
to
continental
Europe,
and
concluding
with
a
forced
merger
of
Credit
Suisse
with
UBS.
Rate
volatility
was
a
defining
theme
for
markets
in
2023
and
following
the
banking
crisis,
the
U.S.
Treasury
yield
curve’s
inversion
deepened.
Geopolitical
strife
in
Europe
and
the
Middle
East,
sticky
inflation
and
worries
of
a
looming
recession
drove
volatility
alongside
monetary
policy
decisions
from
the
Fed.
During
the
second
half
of
the
year,
surprising
economic
resilience
in
the
United
States
and
heavy
Treasury
issuance
moved
10-
year
rates
back
up
and
the
inversion
became
less
severe.
Market
sentiment
that
a
“soft
landing”
may
be
possible
led
financial
markets
to
rally
significantly
through
the
end
of
the
year
and
pushed
10-year
rates
back
down.
Credit
spreads
tightened
as
recession
fears
eased
and
yields
dropped,
most
notably
in
high
yield.
As
measured
by
the
Bloomberg
U.S.
Aggregate
Index,
fixed
income
experienced
its
first
year
in
the
black
since
2020
with

The
Fund’s
allocations
to
corporate
bonds,
asset-backed
securities,
commercial
mortgage-backed
securities,
and
credit
derivatives
provided
the
bulk
of
positive
relative
performance.
Allocations
to
Treasury

currency
futures
derivative
contracts
detracted
from
relative
performance.
The
Victory
Income
Investors
team
took
over
management
of
the

on
September

We
exited
the
Fund’s
convertible
bond
positions
and
derivatives
contracts
in
favor
of
more
traditional
fixed
income
securities
and
trimmed
oversized
positions
to
reduce
idiosyncratic
risk.
The
Fund’s
strategy
is
now
refocused
on
a
bottom-up
fundamental
portfolio
construction
process,
our
core
competency.
We
continue
to
work
closely
with
our
in-house
team
of
credit
analysts,
who
use
independent
credit
research
to
continuously
monitor
the
Fund’s
holdings
for
creditworthiness
and
relative

and
to
identify
and
evaluate
potential

We
are
committed

maintaining

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
A
heightened
level
of
volatility
in
the
credit
markets,
despite
much
lower
volatility
in
the
broader
equity
markets,
was
the
biggest
theme
for
2023.
Rate
volatility
specifically
drove
much
of
this,
but
concerns
from
the
regional
banking
crisis,
commercial
real
estate
corrections,
and
speculation
of
how
severe
a
pending
recession
and
default
cycle
would
play
out
all
contributed
to
this
theme.
These
concerns
hit
a
high
mark
in
the
fall
of
2023,
but
reversed
course
just
as
fast
into
the
end
of
2023
on
changing
economic
data
and
outlook.
November’s
inflation
data
continued
to
cool,
economic
growth
was
not
suffering
and
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”)
finally
signaled
that
this
rate
hiking
cycle
was
finished.
While
this
led
many
to
speculate
when
rate
cuts
would
begin,
more
importantly
for
the
first
time
in
two
years,
both
the
market
and
the
Fed
agreed
that
peak
inflation
and
peak
rates
were
in
the
rear-
view
mirror.
Risk
markets
pivoted
from
their
oversold
levels
in
September
and
October
2023,
to
end
the
year
in
strong
rally
mode.
The
S&P
500
®
Index
returned
26.29%
for
the
year
and
multiple
fixed
income
classes
rebounded
from
their
poor
2022
returns.
The
Bloomberg
U.S.
Aggregate
Bond
Index
returned
5.53%,
the
Bloomberg
U.S.
Corporate
High
Yield
Index
(the
“Index”)
returned
13.45%,
the
Morningstar
LSTA
U.S.
Leveraged
Loan
Index
returned
13.32%,
and
the
10-year
U.S.
Treasury
returned
3.21%.
While
the
current
3.4%
inflation
rate
is
not
the
‘mission
accomplished’
banner-raise
some
wanted,
it
showed
the
Fed
was
comfortable
in
the
current
path.
This
this
last
mile
to
their
target
will
likely
be
bumpy,
however
it
is
being
met
with
good
corporate
fundamentals.
The
least
believed
trend
this
entire
year
has
been
the
healthy
earnings
reports,
and
while
credit
fundamentals
may
be
weaking
from
a
post
COVID
high,
they
are
not
weak
per
se.
We
do
not
believe
that
the
environment
to
end
2023
is
indicative
of
an
immediate
and
severe
recession,
with
full
employment,
default
rates
not
spiking
higher
and
the
lack
of
one
or
two
problem
sectors
leading
us
down.
In
fact,
much
of
the
strength
is
broadly
shared,
with
the
lack
of
speculative
expansion
and
widening
multiples
leading
into
this
period.
We
see
many
of
our
fixed
asset
heavy
sectors
in
supply/demand
balance,
leading
to
their
earnings
strength
and
cautiously
positive
outlooks.
High
yield
bonds
obviously
benefit
from
lower
rates,
and
it
took
this
momentum
along
with
the
mentioned
strong
credit
trends,
lead
to
big
November-December
rally.
While
some
say
it
was
too
much
or
pulled
forward
2024’s
returns,
it
was
also
symmetrical
and
rebounded
at
same
pace
it
sold
off
during
the
third
quarter
of
2023.
This
was
against
the
supporting
backdrop
of
companies
maintaining
margins,
increasing
free
cashflow
generation,
and
often
prepaying
their
debt.
Credit
rating
downgrades
ticked
up
but
did
not
spike
and
are
coming
off
a
big
two-year
upgrade
cycle.
Defaults,
while
modestly
higher,
also
came
in
lower
than
expectations.
All
of
these
played
into
another
theme
of
2023
where
the
first
half
of
the
year
priced
in
a
much
worse
outcome
than
played
out.
How
did
Victory
High
Yield
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
returned
11.49%
(Class
A
at
net
asset
value)
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
underperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
13.45%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund’s
management
team
takes
a
bottom-up
and
credit-by-credit
approach
to
evaluating
investments.
We
look
for
companies
with
strong
free
cash
flow,
an
ability
to
maintain
pricing
power,
or
that
have
meaningful
hard
asset
(or
collateral)
value.
Often
this
analysis
can
identify
companies
with
less
risk
and
more
potential
positive
catalysts
than
the
market
is
pricing
in.
We
combine
this
credit
selection
with
our
larger
market
views,
favoring
some
sectors
for
their
cyclical
strength
during
an
economic
rebound
and
others
because
of
more
secular,
long-term
trends.
Our
weightings
in
the
airlines,
gaming,
leisure,
and
energy
sectors
for
example
reflect
this
more
secular
and
positive
macro
view
of
the
market
for
2023.
Diving
deeper,
security
selection
in
the
construction/
building
products
and
healthcare
sectors
also
benefited
performance.
The
Fund
had
exposure
to
some
sectors
that
were
particularly
volatile
at
certain
times
during
the
year.
The
media
and
entertainment
sector
was
a
detraction
from
performance
for
the
year,
but
it
did
follow
the
sequential
trends
of
being
a
contributor
in
the
second
half
and
one
we
believe
can
continue
in
2024.
Security
selection
in
the
retail
sector
also
held
back
relative
performance
for
the
Fund.
As
the
outlook
for
Fed
rate
cuts
to
begin
in
2024
remains
a
supportive
case
for
high
yield,
the
debate
of
the
attractiveness
of
outright
yield
attractiveness
versus
historically
tight
spread
levels
continues.
A
graph
of
these
will
not
tell
the
whole
story,
as
high
yield
is
very
different
today
than
it
has
ever
been
with
a
much
higher
concentration
of
both
BB-rated
securities
and
first
lien
secured
bonds.
The
yield
attractiveness
is
paired
with
prices
that
are
still
below
historical
averages
and
a
shorter
duration
profile.
In
addition,
the
worst-case
recession
scenarios
do
not
look
to
be
playing
out.
Ratings
downgrades
will
most
likely
continue,
8
Victory
High
Yield
Fund
Managers’
Commentary
(continued)
(Unaudited)
and
the
overall
default
rate
likely
remains
in
the
3-6%
level,
but
the
high
yield
market
had
priced
in
much
worse.
Historically,
leveraged
loans
and
high
yield
bonds
have
benefitted
from
points
in
the
cycle
when
a
recession
officially
begins,
often
pricing
in
the
forward
impact
of
this
earlier,
and
the
last
rate
hike
in
a
monetary
tightening
cycle.
Both
events
appear
to
be
in
front
of
us
and
while
it
may
be
difficult
to
repeat
the
asset
class
performance
of
2023,
we
believe
the
high
yield
market
still
holds
a
very
attractive
relative
performance
profile
among
fixed
income
markets.

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
Like
most
fixed
income
asset
classes,
the
municipal
market
posted
positive
returns
in
2023.
The
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”)
continued
its
rate
hiking
cycle
in
2023
and
raised
the
Fed
funds
interest
rate
by
an
additional
75
basis
points
(a
basis
point
is
1/100th
of
a
percentage
point)
throughout
the
reporting
period.
The
Fed
concluded
2023
with
a
target
policy
rate
of
5.25-5.50%,
keeping
monetary
policy
restrictive
to
combat
inflation.
Higher
rates
drove
higher
yields
throughout
the
year,
peaking
in
October.
Throughout
the
year
performance
was
driven
by
rate
volatility,
starting
weaker
but
concluding
at
a
high
point.
At
the
end
of
the
fourth
quarter,
the
yield
on
the
Bloomberg
Municipal
Bond
Index
(the
“Index”)
was
3.22%,
which
is
a
taxable-equivalent
yield
of
5.43%
(in
the
40.8%
tax
bracket),
providing
what
we
view
as
an
attractive
entry
point
for
investors
into
the
municipal
market.
A
downward
shift
in
the
U.S.
Treasury
yield
curve
and
softening
inflation
drove
a
significant
rally
across
financial
markets
toward
the
end
of
the
year.
While
the
Index
yields
were
close
to
year-over-year
figures,
they
were
pushed
down
after
a
significant
rally
in
November
and
December.
Municipal
flows
were
improved
in
2023,
but
still
remain
in
the
red
for
the
year.
How
did
Victory
Tax-Exempt
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
returned
6.89%
(Class
A
at
net
asset
value)
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
outperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
6.40%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
tends
to
be
more
credit-heavy
than
the
Index,
holding
more
BBB-rated
(the
lowest
category,
highest
risk
level
of
investment
grade)
bonds
than
the
Index.
We
overweight
these
credits
to
provide
additional
tax-free
income
to
our
investors.
BBB-
rated
bonds
rebounded
in
2023,
particularly
in
the
fourth
quarter,
as
their
prices
increased
even
more
than
AAA-rated
bonds.
This
dynamic
helped
drive
the
Fund’s
relative
outperformance
in
2023,
and
we
believe
our
overweight
to
these
bonds
will
continue
to
serve
investors
well
in
the
long
term.
We
remain
committed
to

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
Like
most
fixed
income
asset
classes,
the
municipal
market
posted
positive
returns
in
2023.
The
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”)
continued
its
rate
hiking
cycle
in
2023
and
raised
the
Fed
funds
interest
rate
by
an
additional
75
basis
points
(a
basis
point
is
1/100th
of
a
percentage
point)
throughout
the
reporting
period.
The
Fed
concluded
2023
with
a
target
policy
rate
of
5.25-5.50%,
keeping
monetary
policy
restrictive
to
combat
inflation.
Higher
rates
drove
higher
yields
throughout
the
year,
peaking
in
October.
Throughout
the
year
performance
was
driven
by
rate
volatility,
starting
weaker
but
concluding
at
a
high
point.
At
the
end
of
the
fourth
quarter,
the
yield
on
the
Bloomberg
Municipal
Bond
Index
(the
“Index”)
was
3.22%,
which
is
a
taxable-equivalent
yield
of
5.43%
(in
the
40.8%
tax
bracket),
providing
what
we
view
as
an
attractive
entry
point
for
investors
into
the
municipal
market.
A
downward
shift
in
the
U.S.
Treasury
yield
curve
and
softening
inflation
drove
a
significant
rally
across
financial
markets
toward
the
end
of
the
year.
While
the
Index
yields
were
close
to
year-over-year
figures,
they
were
pushed
down
after
a
significant
rally
in
November
and
December.
Municipal
flows
were
improved
in
2023,
but
still
remain
in
the
red
for
the
year.
How
did
Victory
High
Income
Municipal
Bond
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
returned
7.41%
(Class
A
at
net
asset
value)
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
outperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
6.40%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
tends
to
be
more
credit-heavy
than
the
Index,
holding
more
BBB-rated
(the
lowest
category,
highest
risk
level
of
investment
grade)
bonds
than
the
Index.
We
overweight
these
credits
to
provide
additional
tax-free
income
to
our
investors.
BBB-
rated
bonds
rebounded
in
2023,
particularly
in
the
fourth
quarter,
as
their
prices
increased
even
more
than
AAA-rated
bonds.
This
dynamic
helped
drive
the
Fund’s
relative
outperformance
in
2023,
and
we
believe
our
overweight
to
these
bonds
will
continue
to
serve
investors
well
in
the
long
term.
We
remain
committed
to
our
core
competency
of
evaluating,
taking,
and
managing
credit
risk
in
the
municipal
market.
We
continue
to
build
our
portfolios
bond-by-bond,
relying
on
our
assessment
of
fundamental
credit
risk
and
attempting
to
capture
and
distribute
incremental
yield
that
will
drive
higher
long-term
income
to
our
investors.
While
there
might
be
some
volatility

in
the
short
term,
we
remain
confident
that
the
right
approach
is
to
focus
on
what
matters
in
the

Managers’
Commentary
(Unaudited)
What
were
the
market
conditions
during
the
reporting
period?
A
heightened
level
of
volatility
in
the
credit
markets,
despite
lower
volatility
in
the
broader
equity
markets,
was
the
biggest
theme
for
2023.
Rate
volatility
specifically
drove
much
of
this,
but
concerns
from
the
regional
banking
crisis,
commercial
real
estate
corrections
and
speculation
of
how
severe
a
pending
recession
and
default
cycle
would
play
out
all
contributed
to
this
theme.
These
concerns
hit
a
high
mark
in
the
fall
of
2023,
but
reversed
course
just
as
fast
into
the
end
of
2023
on
changing
economic
data
and
outlook.
November’s
inflation
data
continued
to
cool,
economic
growth
was
not
suffering,
and
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”)
finally
signaled
that
this
rate
hiking
cycle
was
finished.
While
this
led
many
to
speculate
when
rate
cuts
would
begin,
more
importantly
for
the
first
time
in
two
years,
both
the
market
and
the
Fed
agreed
that
peak
inflation
and
peak
rates
were
in
the
rear-view
mirror.
Risk
markets
pivoted
from
their
oversold
levels
in
September
and
October
2023,
to
end
the
year
in
strong
rally
mode.
The
S&P
500
®
Index
returned
26.29%
for
the
year
and
multiple
fixed
income
classes
rebounded
from
their
poor
2022
returns.
The
Bloomberg
U.S.
Aggregate
Bond
Index
returned
5.53%,
the
Bloomberg
U.S.
Corporate
High
Yield
Index
returned
13.45%,
the
Morningstar
LSTA
US
Leveraged
Loan
Index
(the
“Index”)
returned
13.32%,
and
the
10-year
U.S.
Treasury
returned
3.2%.
While
the
current
3.4%
inflation
rate
is
not
the
‘mission
accomplished’
banner-raise
some
wanted,
it
showed
the
Fed
was
comfortable
in
the
current
path.
This
last
mile
to
their
target
will
likely
be
bumpy,
however
it
is
being
met
with
good
corporate
fundamentals.
The
least
believed
trend
this
entire
year
has
been
the
healthy
earnings
reports,
and
while
credit
fundamentals
may
be
weaking
from
a
post
COVID
high,
they
are
not
weak
per
se.
We
do
not
believe
that
the
environment
to
end
2023
is
indicative
of
an
immediate
and
severe
recession,
with
full
employment,
default
rates
not
spiking
higher
and
the
lack
of
one
or
two
problem
sectors
leading
us
down.
In
fact,
much
of
the
strength
is
broadly
shared,
with
the
lack
of
speculative
expansion
and
widening
multiples
leading
into
this
period.
We
see
many
of
our
fixed
asset
heavy
sectors
in
supply/demand
balance,
leading
to
their
earnings
strength
and
cautiously
positive
outlooks.
Specifically,
with
regard
to
the
floating
rate
leveraged
loan
market,
historically
high
current
yields
benefitted
from
the
rising
rate
pace
but
were
also
aided
by
these
strong
credit
trends.
We
saw
companies
maintaining
margins,
increasing
free
cashflow
generation,
and
often
prepaying
their
debt.
Credit
rating
downgrades
ticked
up
but
did
not
spike
and
are
coming
off
a
big
two-year
upgrade
cycle.
Defaults,
while
modestly
higher,
also
came
in
lower
than
expectations.
All
of
these
played
into
another
theme
of
2023,
which
was
that
the
first
half
of
the
year
priced
in
a
must
worse
outcome
than
played
out.
How
did
Victory
Floating
Rate
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
perform
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund
returned
9.04%
(Class
A
at
net
asset
value)
for
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2023,
underperforming
the
Index,
which
returned
13.32%
for
the
reporting
period.
What
strategies
did
you
employ
during
the
reporting
period?
The
Fund’s
management
team
takes
a
bottom-up
and
credit-by-credit
approach
to
evaluating
investments.
We
look
for
companies
with
strong
free
cash
flow,
an
ability
to
maintain
pricing
power,
or
that
have
meaningful
hard
asset
(or
collateral)
value.
Often
this
analysis
can
identify
companies
with
less
risk
and
more
potential
positive
catalysts
than
the
market
is
pricing
in.
We
combine
this
credit
selection
with
our
larger
market
views,
favoring
some
sectors
for
their
cyclical
strength
during
an
economic
rebound
and
others
because
of
more
secular,
long-term
trends.
Our
weightings
in
the
airlines,
gaming,
leisure,
and
energy
sectors
for
example
reflect
this
more
secular
and
positive
macro
view
of
the
market
for
2023,
along
with
a
modest
allocation
to
high
yield
bonds
despite
being
out
of
benchmark.
Diving
deeper,
security
selection
in
the
construction
and
building
products
sector
also
benefited
performance.
The
Fund
had
exposure
to
some
sectors
that
were
particularly
volatile
at
certain
times
during
the
year.
Health
care
was
a
detraction
from
relative
performance
for
the
year,
but
it
was
a
big
contributor
in
the
second
half,
a
trend
we
believe
can
continue
in
2024.
Securities
in
the
retail
sector
also
held
back
relative
performance
for
the
Fund.
From
a
ratings
perspective,
loan
investments
in
the
lower-rated
categories
detracted
from
relative
performance.
Even
with
the
outlook
for
Fed
rate
cuts
to
begin
in
2024,
we
believe
floating
rate
bank
loans
can
remain
attractive
as
a
result
of
the
starting
yields
they
enter
the
year,
the
total
return
potential
of
where
loans
are
trading
and
the
continued
lower
level
of
volatility.
In
addition,
we
do
not
believe
the
worst-case
recession
scenarios
look
to
be
playing
out.
Ratings
downgrades
will
continue,
the
overall
default
rate
likely
remains
here
in
the
3-6%
level
but
the
high
yield
market
had
priced
in
much
worse.
Historically,
leveraged
loans
and
high
yield
bonds
have
benefitted
from
points
in
the
cycle
when
a
recession
officially
begins,
often
pricing
in
the
forward
impact
of
this
earlier,
and
the
last
rate
hike
in
a
monetary
tightening
cycle.
Both
events
appear
in
front
of
us
and

1.
Organization:
Victory
Portfolios
(the
“Trust”)
is
organized
as
a
Delaware
statutory
trust and
the Trust
is
registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“1940
Act”),
as
an
open-end
investment
company.
The
Trust
is
comprised
of 37
funds
and
is
authorized
to
issue
an
unlimited
number
of
shares,
which
are
units
of
beneficial
interest
with a
par
value
of
$0.001
per
share.
The
accompanying
financial
statements
are
those
of
the
following five
Funds
(collectively,
the
“Funds”
and
individually,
a
“Fund”).
Each
Fund is
classified
as
diversified
under
the
1940
Act.
Each
class
of
shares
of
a
Fund
has
substantially
identical
rights
and
privileges
except
with
respect
to
sales
charges,
fees
paid
under
distribution
plans,
expenses
allocable
exclusively
to
each
class
of
shares,
voting
rights
on
matters
solely
affecting
a
single
class
of
shares,
and
the
exchange
privilege
of
each
class
of
shares. Victory
Capital
Management
Inc.
(“VCM”
or
the
“Adviser”)
is
an
indirect
wholly
owned
subsidiary
of
Victory
Capital
Holdings,
Inc.,
a
publicly
traded
Delaware
corporation,
and
a
wholly
owned
direct
subsidiary
of
Victory
Capital
Operating,
LLC.
Under
the
Trust’s
organizational
documents,
its
officers
and
trustees
are
indemnified
against
certain
liabilities
arising
out
of
the
performance
of
their
duties
to
the
Funds.
In
addition,
in
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Funds
enter
into
contracts
with
their
vendors
and
others
that
provide
for
general
indemnifications.
The Funds’
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown,
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Funds.
However,
based
on
experience,
the
Funds
expect
that
risk
of
loss
to
be
remote.
2.
Significant
Accounting
Policies:
The
following
is
a
summary
of
significant
accounting
policies
followed
by
the Funds
in
the
preparation
of their
financial
statements.
 The
policies
are
in
conformity
with
U.S.
Generally
Accepted
Accounting
Principles
(“GAAP”).
The
preparation
of
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
GAAP
requires
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
and
disclosure
of
contingent
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements
and
the
reported
amounts
of
income
and
expenses
for
the
period.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
The
Funds
follow
the
specialized
accounting
and
reporting
requirements
under
GAAP
that
are
applicable
to
investment
companies
under
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946.
Investment
Valuation:
The
Funds
record
investments
at
fair
value.
Fair
value
is
defined
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date.
The
valuation
techniques
described
below
maximize
the
use
of
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs
in
determining
fair
value.
The
inputs
used
for
valuing
the
Funds’
investments
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
securities
Level
2
other
significant
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar
securities,
interest
rates,
or
credit
spreads,
applicable
to
those
securities,
etc.)
Level
3
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
the
Adviser’s
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments)
Changes
in
valuation
techniques
may
result
in
transfers
in
or
out
of
an
assigned
level
within
the
disclosure
hierarchy.
The
inputs
or
methodologies
used
for
valuation
techniques
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risks
associated
with
entering
into
those
investments.
The
Adviser,
appointed
as the
valuation
designee
by the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”),
has
established
the
Pricing
and
Liquidity
Committee
(the
“Committee”),
and
subject
to Board
oversight,
the
Committee
administers
and
oversees
the
Funds’
valuation
policies
and
procedures,
which
were
approved
by
the
Board.
Portfolio
securities
listed
or
traded
on
securities
exchanges,
including
Exchange-Traded
Funds
(“ETFs”),
and
American
Depositary
Receipts,
are
valued
at
the
last
sale
price
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded,
if
available,
or
at
the
Nasdaq
Official
Closing
Price.
If
there
have
been
no
sales
for
that
day
on
the
exchange
or
system,
then
a
security
is
valued
at
the
closing bid
quotation
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded.
In
each
of
these
situations,
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
1
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Investments
in
open-end
investment
companies,
other
than
ETFs, are
valued
at their
net
asset
value
(“NAV”).
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
1 in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Debt
securities
are
valued
each
business
day
by
a
pricing
service
approved
by
the
valuation
designee
and
subject
to
the
oversight
of
the
Board.
The
pricing
service
uses
the
evaluated
bid
or market
quotes to
value
securities.
Debt
obligations
maturing
within
60
days
may
be
valued
at
amortized
cost,
provided
that
the
amortized
cost
represents
the
fair
value
of
such
securities.
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
2
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.

Futures
contracts
are
valued
at
the
settlement
price
established
each
day
by
the
board
of
trade
or
an
exchange
on
which
they
are
traded.
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
1
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Swap
agreements
are
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
ask
prices.
To
the
extent
this
model
is
utilized,
these
valuations
are
considered
as
Level
2
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
In
the
event
that
price
quotations
or
valuations
are
not
readily
available,
investments
are
valued
at
fair
value
in
accordance
with
procedures
established
by
and
under
the
general
supervision
and
responsibility
of
the
Board.
These
valuations
are
typically
categorized
as
Level
2
or
Level
3
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy,
based
on
the
observability
of
inputs
used
to
determine
the
fair
value.
The
effect
of
fair
value
pricing
is
that
securities
may
not
be
priced
on
the
basis
of
quotations
from
the
primary
market
in
which
they
are
traded
and
the
actual
price
realized
from
the
sale
of
a
security
may
differ
materially
from
the
fair
value
price.
Valuing
these
securities
at
fair
value
is
intended
to
cause
the
Funds’
NAV to
be
more
reliable
than
it
otherwise
would
be.
A
summary
of
the
valuations
as
of
December
31,
2023,
based
upon
the
three
levels
defined
above,
is
included
in
the
table
below

the

by
category,
of

Schedules
of

Investments:
As
of December

there

Real
Estate
Investment
Trusts
(“REITs”):
The
Funds
may
invest
in
REITs,
which
report
information
on
the
source
of
their
distributions
annually.
REITs
are
pooled
investment
vehicles
that
invest
primarily
in
income-producing
real
estate
or
real
estate
related
loans
or
interests
(such
as
mortgages).
Certain
distributions
received
from
REITs
during
the
year
are
recorded
as
realized
gains
or
return
of
capital
as
estimated
by
the
Funds
or
when
such
information
becomes
known.

Investment
Companies:
Exchange-Traded
Funds:
The Funds
may
invest
in
ETFs,
the
shares
of
which
are
bought
and
sold
on
a
securities
exchange.
An
ETF
trades
like
common
stock
and
represents
a
fixed
portfolio
of
securities
often
designed
to
track
the
performance
and
dividend
yield
of
a
particular
domestic
or
foreign
market
index.
Among
other
purposes,
the
Funds
may
purchase
shares
of
an
ETF
to
temporarily
gain
exposure
to
a
portion
of
the
U.S.
or
a
foreign
market
while
awaiting
purchase
of
underlying
securities.
The
risks
of
owning
an
ETF
generally
reflect
the
risks
of
owning
the
underlying
securities
the
ETF
is
designed
to
track,
although
the
lack
of
liquidity
of
an
ETF
could
result
in
it
being
more
volatile.
Additionally,
ETFs
have
fees
and
expenses
that
reduce
their
value.
Open-End
Funds:
The
Funds
may
invest
in
portfolios
of
open-end
investment
companies.
These
investment
companies
value
securities
in
their
portfolios
for
which
market
quotations
are
readily
available
at
their
market
values
(generally
the
last
reported
sale
price)
and
all
other
securities
and
assets
at
their
fair
value
by
the
methods
established
by
the
board
of
directors
of
the
underlying
funds.
Securities
Purchased
on
a
Delayed-Delivery
or
When-Issued
Basis:
The
Funds
may
purchase
securities
on
a
delayed-delivery
or
when-issued
basis.
Delivery
and
payment
for
securities
that
have
been
purchased
by
the
Funds
on
a
delayed-delivery
or
when-issued
basis,
or
for
delayed
draws
on
loans
can
generally
take
place
within
35
days after
the
trade
date.
Securities
that
require
more
than
35
days
to
settle
are
considered
a
senior
security
and
subject
to
Rule
18f-4.
At
the
time
the
Funds
makes
the
commitment
to
purchase
a
security
on
a
delayed-delivery
or
when-issued
basis,
the
Funds
records
the
transaction
and
reflects
the
value
of
the
security
in
determining
NAV.
No
interest
accrues
to
the
Funds
until
the
transaction
settles
and
payment
takes
place.
If
the
Funds
own
delayed-delivery
or
when-issued
securities,
these
values
are
included
in
Payables
for
Investments
purchased
on
the
accompanying
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Municipal
Obligations:
The
values
of
municipal
obligations
can
fluctuate
and
may
be
affected
by
adverse
tax,
legislative,
or
political
changes,
and
by
financial
developments
affecting
municipal
issuers.
Payments
of
municipal
obligations
may
depend
on
a
relatively
limited
source
of
revenue,
resulting
in
greater
credit
risk.
Future
changes
in
federal
tax
laws
or
the
activity
of
an
issuer
may
adversely
affect
the
tax-exempt
status
of
municipal
obligations.
Loans:
Floating
rate
loans
in
which
a
Fund
invests
are
primarily
“senior”
loans.
Senior
floating
rate
loans
typically
hold
a
senior
position
in
the
capital
structures
of
the
borrower,
are
typically
secured
by
specific
collateral,
and
have
a
claim
on
the
assets
and/or
stock
of
the
borrower
that
is
senior
to
that
held
by
subordinated
debtholders
and
stockholders
of
the
borrower.
While
these
protections
may
reduce
risk,
these
investments
still
present
significant
credit
risk.
A
significant
portion
of
a
Fund’s
floating
rate
investments
may
be
issued
in
connection
with
highly
leveraged
transactions
such
as
leveraged
buyouts,
leveraged
recapitalization
loans,
and
other
types
of
acquisition
financing.
Obligations
in
these
types
of
transactions
are
subject
to
greater
credit
risk
(including
default
and
bankruptcy)
than
many
other
investments
and
may
be,
or
become,
illiquid.
See
the
note
below
regarding
below
investment
grade
securities.
The Funds
may
purchase
second-lien
loans
(secured
loans
with
a
claim
on
collateral
subordinate
to
a
senior
lender’s
claim
on
such
collateral),
fixed
rate
loans,
unsecured
loans,
and
other
debt
obligations.
Transactions
in
loans
often
settle
on
a
delayed
basis,
and
a
Fund
may
not
receive
the
proceeds
from
the
sale
of
a
loan
or
pay
for
a
loan
purchase
for
a
substantial
period
of
time
after
entering
into
the
transactions.
Below-Investment-Grade
Securities:
Certain
Funds
may
invest
in
below-investment-grade
securities
(i.e.,
lower-quality,
“junk”
debt),
which
are
subject
to
various
risks.
Lower-
quality
debt
is
considered
to
be
speculative
because
it
is
less
certain
that
the
issuer
will
be
able
to
pay
interest
or
repay
the
principal
than
in
the
case
of
investment-grade
debt.
These
securities
can
involve
a
substantially
greater
risk
of
default
than
higher-rated
securities,
and
their
values
can
decline
significantly
over
short
periods
of
time.
Lower-quality
debt
securities
tend
to
be
more
sensitive
to
adverse
news
about
their
issuers,
the
market
and
the
economy
in
general,
than
higher-quality
debt
securities.
The
market
for
these
securities
can
be
less
liquid,
especially
during
periods
of
recession
or
general
market
decline.
Derivative
Instruments:
Futures
Contracts:
The
Funds
may
enter
into
contracts
for
the
future
delivery
of
securities
or
foreign
currencies
and
futures
contracts
based
on
a
specific
security,
class
of
securities,
foreign
currency
or
an
index,
and
purchase
or
sell
options
on
any
such
futures
contracts.
A
futures
contract
on
a
securities
index
is
an
agreement
obligating
either
party
to
pay,
and
entitling
the
other
party
to
receive,
while
the
contract
is
outstanding,
cash
payments
based
on
the
level
of
a
specified
securities
index.
No
physical
delivery
of
the
underlying
asset
is
made.
The
Funds
may
enter
into
futures
contracts
in
an
effort
to
hedge
against
market
risks.
The
acquisition
of
put
and
call
options
on
futures
contracts
will
give
the
Funds
the
right
(but

not
the
obligation),
for
a
specified
price,
to
sell
or
to
purchase
the
underlying
futures
contract,
upon
exercise
of
the
option,
at
any
time
during
the
option
period.
Futures
transactions
involve
brokerage
costs and
a
good
faith
margin
deposit,
known
as
initial
margin,
of
cash
or
government
securities
with
a
broker
or
custodian
is
required
to
initiate
and
maintain
open
positions
in
futures
contracts.
Subsequent
payments,
known
as
variation
margin,
are
made
or
received
by
the
Funds
based
on
the
change
in
the
market
value
of
the
position
and
are
recorded
as
unrealized
appreciation
or
depreciation
until
the
contract
is
closed
out,
at
which
time
the
gain
or
loss
is
realized.
The
Funds
may
lose
the
expected
benefit
of
futures
transactions
if
interest
rates,
exchange
rates
or
securities
prices
change
in
an
unanticipated
manner.
Such
unanticipated
changes
may
also
result
in
lower
overall
performance
than
if
the
Funds
had
not
entered
into
any
futures
transactions.
In
addition,
the
value
of
the
Funds’
futures
positions
may
not
prove
to
be
perfectly
or
even
highly
correlated
with
the
value
of
its
portfolio
securities
or
foreign
currencies,
limiting
the
Funds’
ability
to
hedge
effectively
against
interest
rate,
exchange
rate
and/or
market
risk
and
giving
rise
to
additional
risks.
There
is
no
assurance
of
liquidity
in
the
secondary
market
for
purposes
of
closing
out
futures
positions.
The
collateral
held
by
the
Funds
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
under
Deposit
with
broker
for
futures
contracts.
The
Funds
did
not
hold
futures
contracts
as
of
December
31,
2023.
Management
has
determined
that
no
offsetting
requirements
exist
as
a
result
of
their
conclusion
that
the
Funds
are
not
subject
to
master
netting
agreements
for
futures
contracts. During
the
year
ended December
31,
2023,
the Funds entered
into
futures
contracts
primarily
for
the
strategy
of
hedging
or
other
purposes,
including
but
not
limited
to,
providing
liquidity
and
equitizing
cash.
Credit
Derivatives:
The
Funds may
enter
into
credit
derivatives,
including
centrally
cleared
credit
default
swaps
on
individual
obligations
or
credit
indices.
The
Funds
may
use
these
investments
(i)
as
alternatives
to
direct
long
or
short
investment
in
a
particular
security
or
securities,
(ii)
to
adjust
the
Funds’
asset
allocations
or
risk
exposures,
or
(iii)
for
hedging
purposes.
The
use
by
the
Funds
of
centrally
cleared
credit
default
swaps
may
have
the
effect
of
creating
a
short
position
in
a
security.
Credit
derivatives
can
create
investment
leverage
and
may
create
additional
investment
risks
that
may
subject
the
Funds
to
greater
volatility
than
investments
in
more
traditional
securities,
as
described
in
the
Funds’
Statements
of
Additional
Information.
Centrally
cleared
credit
default
swap
(“CDS”)
agreements
on
credit
indices
involve
one
party
making
a
stream
of
payments
(referred
to
as
the
buyer
of
protection)
to
another
party
(the
seller
of
protection)
in
exchange
for
the
right
to
receive
a
specified
return
in
the
event
of
a
write-down,
principal
shortfall,
interest
shortfall
or
default
of
all
or
part
of
the
referenced
entities
comprising
the
credit
index.
A
credit
index
is
a
basket
of
credit
instruments
or
exposures
designed
to
be
representative
of
a
specific
sector
of
the
credit
market
as
a
whole.
These
indices
are
made
up
of
reference
credits
that
are
judged
by
a
poll
of
dealers
to
be
the
most
liquid
entities
in
the
CDS.
The
counterparty
risk
for
cleared
swap
agreements
is
generally
lower
than
uncleared
over-the-counter
swap
agreements
because
generally
a
clearing
organization
becomes
substituted
for
each
counterparty
to
a
centrally
cleared
swap
agreement
and,
in
effect,
guarantees
each
party’s
performance
under
the
contract
as
each
party
to
a
trade
looks
only
to
the
clearing
organization
for
performance
of
financial
obligations.
However,
there
can
be
no
assurance
that
the
clearing
organization,
or
its
members,
will
satisfy
its
obligations
to
the
Funds.
The
Funds may
enter
into
CDS
agreements
either
as
a
buyer
or
seller.
The Funds may
buy
protection
under
a
CDS
to
attempt
to
mitigate
the
risk
of
default
or
credit
quality
deterioration
in
one
or
more
individual
holdings
or
in
a
segment
of
the
fixed
income
securities
market.
The
Funds
may
sell
protection
under
a
CDS
in
an
attempt
to
gain
exposure
to
an
underlying
issuer’s
credit
quality
characteristics
without
investing
directly
in
that
issuer.
For
swaps
entered
with
an
individual
counterparty,
the
Funds
bear
the
risk
of
loss
of
the
uncollateralized
amount
expected
to
be
received
under
a
CDS
agreement
in
the
event
of
the
default
or
bankruptcy
of
the
counterparty.
CDS
agreements
are
generally
valued
at
a
price
at
which
the
counterparty
to
such
agreement
would
terminate
the
agreement.
The
Funds
may
also
enter
into
centrally
cleared
swaps.
Upon
entering
into
a
cleared
CDS,
the
Funds may
be
required
to
deposit
with
the
broker
an
amount
of
cash
or
cash
equivalents
in
the
range
of
approximately
3%
to
6%
of
the
notional
amount
for
CDS
on
high
yield
debt
issuers
(this
amount
is
subject
to
change
by
the
clearing
organization
that
clears
the
trade).
This
amount,
known
as
“initial
margin,”
is
in
the
nature
of
a
performance
bond
or
good
faith
deposit
on
the
CDS
and
is
returned
to
a
Fund
upon
termination
of
the
CDS,
assuming
all
contractual
obligations
have
been
satisfied.
Subsequent
payments,
known
as
“variation
margin,”
to
and
from
the
broker
will
be
made
daily
as
the
price
of
the
CDS
fluctuates,
making
the
long
and
short
positions
in
the
CDS
contract
more
or
less
valuable,
a
process
known
as
“marking-to-market.”
The
premium
(discount)
payments
are
built
into
the
daily
price
of
the
CDS
and
thus
are
amortized
through
the
variation
margin.
The
variation
margin
payment
also
includes
the
daily
portion
of
the
periodic
payment
stream.
The
maximum
potential
amount
of
future
payments
(undiscounted)
that
the Funds
as
a
seller
of
protection
could
be
required
to
make
under
a
CDS
agreement
equals
the
notional
amount
of
the
agreement.
Notional
amounts
of
each
individual
CDS
agreement
outstanding
as
of
year end
for
which
the
Funds
are
the
sellers
of
protection
are
disclosed
on
the
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments.
These
potential
amounts
would
be
partially
offset
by
any
recovery
values
of
the
respective
referenced
obligations,
upfront
payments
received
upon
entering
into
the
agreement,
periodic
interest
payments,
or
net
amounts
received
from
the
settlement
of
buy
protection
CDS
agreements
entered
into
by
the
Funds
for
the
same
referenced
entity
or
entities.
The
collateral
held
by
the
Funds
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
under
Deposit
with

Summary
of
Derivative
Instruments: 
The
following
table
presents the
effect
of
derivative
instruments
on
the
Statements
of
Operations,
categorized
by
risk
exposure,
for
the year
ended
December
31,
2023:
All
open
derivative
positions
at
period
end
are
reflected
on
each
respective
Fund’s
Schedule
of
Portfolio
Investments.
The
volume
associated
with
derivative
positions
in
the
Low
Duration
Bond
Fund
was
9%
and
4%
for
futures
contracts
and
swap
agreements,
respectively,
based
on
average
monthly
notional
amounts
in
comparison
to
net
assets
during
the
year.
Investment
Transactions
and
Related
Income:
Changes
in
holdings
of
investments
are
accounted
for
no
later
than
one
business
day
following
the
trade
date.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
however,
investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
trade
date
or
the
last
business
day
of
the
reporting
period.
Interest
income
is
determined
on
the
basis
of
coupon
interest
accrued
and
recorded
daily
 using
the
effective
interest
method
which
adjusts,
where
applicable,
the
amortization
of
premiums
or
accretion
of
discounts. Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Non-cash
dividends
included
in
income,
if
any,
are
recorded
at
the
fair
value
of
the
securities
received. Gains
or
losses
realized
on
sales
of
securities
are
recorded
on
the
identified
cost
basis.
Paydown
gains
or
losses
on
applicable
securities,
if
any,
are
recorded
as
components
of
Interest
income
on
the
Statements
of
Operations. 
The Funds
may
receive
other
income
from
investments
in
loan
assignments
and/or
unfunded
commitments,
including
amendment
fees,
consent
fees,
and
commitment
fees.
These
fees
are
recorded
as
income
when
received.
These
amounts,
if
received,
are
included
in
Interest
income
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Securities
Lending:
The
Funds, through
a Securities
Lending
Agreement with
Citibank,
N.A.
(“Citibank”), may
lend
their
securities
to
qualified
financial
institutions,
such
as
certain
broker-dealers
and
banks,
to
earn
additional
income,
net
of
income
retained
by
Citibank. 
Borrowers
are
required
to
initially
secure
their
loans for
collateral
in
the
amount
of
at
least
102%
of
the
value
of
U.S.
securities
loaned
or
at
least
105%
of
the
value
of
non-U.S.
securities
loaned,
marked-to-market
daily.
Any
collateral
shortfalls
associated
with
increases
in
the
valuation
of
the
securities
loaned
are
generally
cured the
next
business
day.
The
collateral
can
be
received
in
the
form
of
cash
collateral
and/or
non-cash
collateral.
Non-
cash
collateral
can
include
U.S.
Government
Securities and
other
securities
as
permitted
by
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(“SEC”)
guidelines.
The
cash
collateral
is
invested
in
short-term
instruments
or
cash
equivalents,
primarily
open-end
investment
companies,
as
noted
on
the
Funds’
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments.
The
Funds
effectively
do not
have
control
of
the
non-cash
collateral
and
therefore
it
is
not
disclosed
on
the
Funds’
Schedules
of
Portfolio
Investments.
Collateral
requirements
are
determined
daily
based
on
the
value
of
the
Funds’
securities
on
loan
as
of
the
end
of
the prior
business
day. 
During
the
time
portfolio
securities
are
on
loan,
the
borrower
will
pay
the
Funds
any
dividends
or
interest
paid
on
such
securities
plus
any
fee
negotiated
between
the
parties
to
the
lending
agreement.
The
Funds
also
earn
a
return
from
the
collateral.
The
Funds
pay
Citibank
various
fees
in
connection
with
the
investment
of
cash
collateral
and
fees
based
on
the
investment
income
received
from
securities
lending
activities.
Securities
lending
income
(net
of
these
fees)
is
disclosed
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Loans
are
terminable
upon
demand
and
the
borrower
must
return
the
loaned
securities
within
the
lesser
of
one
standard
settlement
period
or
five
business
days. 
Although
risk
is
mitigated
by
the
collateral, a
Fund could
experience
a
delay
in
recovering
its
securities
and
possible
loss
of
income
or
value
if
the
borrower
fails
to
return
them.
In
addition,
there
is
a
risk that
the
value
of
the
short-term
investments
will
be
less
than
the
amount
of
cash
collateral
required
to
be
returned
to
the
borrower.
The
Funds’
agreement
with
Citibank
does
not
include
master
netting
provisions.
Non-cash
collateral
received
by
the
Funds
may
not
be
sold
or
repledged,
except
to
satisfy
borrower
default.

Federal
Income
Taxes:
Each
Fund
intends
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
by
complying
with
the
provisions
available
to
certain
investment
companies,
as
defined
in
applicable
sections
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code,
and
to
make
distributions
of
net
investment
income
and
net
realized
gains
sufficient
to
relieve
it
from
all,
or
substantially
all,
federal
income
taxes.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
financial
statements.
The
Funds
have
a
tax
year
end
of
December
31.
For
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
the
Funds
did
not
incur
any
income
tax,
interest,
or
penalties,
and
have
recorded
no
liability
for
net
unrecognized
tax
benefits
relating
to
uncertain
tax
positions.
Management
of
the
Funds
has
reviewed
tax
positions
taken
in
tax
years
that
remain
subject
to
examination
by
all
major
tax
jurisdictions,
including
federal
(i.e.,
the
last
four
tax
years,
which
includes
the
current
fiscal
tax
year
end).
Management
believes
that
there
is
no
tax
liability
resulting
from
unrecognized
tax
benefits
related
to
uncertain
tax
positions
taken.

entered
into
an

limitation
agreement
with

the
terms
of
the
agreement,
the

has
agreed
to
waive
fees
or
reimburse
certain
expenses
to
the
extent
that
ordinary
operating
expenses
incurred
by
certain
classes
of
the
Funds
in
any
fiscal
year
exceed
the
expense
limits
for the
Funds.
Such
excess
amounts
will
be
the
liability
of
the
Adviser.
Acquired

fees
and
expenses,
interest,

commissions,
other

Risks:
The
Funds
may
be
subject
to
other
risks
in
addition
to
these
identified
risks.
Debt
Securities
Risk
The
value
of
a
debt
security
or
other
income-producing
security
changes
in
response
to
various
factors,
including,
for
example,
market-related
factors
(such
as
changes
in
interest
rates
or
changes
in
the
risk
appetite
of
investors
generally)
and
changes
in
the
actual
or
perceived
ability
of
the
issuer
(or
of
issuers
generally)
to
meet
its
(or
their)
obligations.
Other
factors
that
may
affect
the
value
of
debt
securities,
include,
among
others,
public
health
crises
and
responses
by
governments
and
companies
to
such
crises.
These
and
other
events
may
affect
the
creditworthiness
of
the
issuer
of
a
debt
security
and
may
impair
an
issuer’s
ability
to
timely
meet
its
debt
obligations
as
they
come
due.
High-Yield/Junk
Bond
Risk
Lower-quality
debt
securities
can
involve
a
substantially
greater
risk
of
default
than
higher
quality
debt
securities,
and
their
values
can
decline
significantly
over
short
and
longer
periods
of
time.
Lower-quality
debt
securities
tend
to
be
more
sensitive
to
adverse
news
about
the
issuer,
or
the
market
or
economy
in
general.
Floating
Rate
Loan
Risk
Investments
in
floating
rate
loans
are
generally
subject
to
the
same
risks
as
investments
in
other
types
of
debt
securities,
including,
in
many
cases,
investments
in
high-yield/junk
bonds.
There
may
be
limited
public
information
available
regarding
the
loan.
They
may
be
difficult
to
value
and
may
be
illiquid.
The
receipt
of
principal
and
interest
on
some
loans
may
be
subject
to
the
credit
risk
of
a
financial
institution
that
issues
or
administers
the
loan.
In
certain
circumstances,
the
Funds
may
not
have
the
same
protections
available
to
investors
under
the
federal
securities
laws.
In
times
of
unusual
or
adverse
market,
economic
or
political
conditions,
floating
rate
loans
may
experience
higher
than
normal
default
rates.
In
the
event
of
a
recession
or
serious
credit
event,
among
other
eventualities,
the
value
of
the
Funds’
investments
in
floating
rate
loans
are
more
likely
to
decline.
Transactions
in
loans
often
settle
on
a
delayed
basis,
and
the
Funds
may
not
receive
the
proceeds
from
the
sale
of
a
loan
for
a
substantial
period
of
time
after
the
sale.
The
secondary
market
for
floating
rate
loans
is
limited
and,
thus,
the
Funds’
ability
to
sell
or
realize
the
full
value
of
its
investment
in
these
loans
to
reinvest
sale
proceeds
or
to
meet
redemption
obligations
may
be
impaired.
Municipal
Obligations Risk
— The
values
of
municipal
obligations
that
depend
on
a
specific
revenue
source
to
fund
their
payment
obligations
may
fluctuate
as
a
result
of
changes
in
the
cash
flows
generated
by
the
revenue
source
or
changes
in
the
priority
of
the
municipal
obligation
to
receive
the
cash
flows
generated
by
the
revenue
source.
Changes
in
the
financial
health
of
a
municipality
or
other
issuer,
or
an
insurer
of
municipalities,
may
make
it
difficult
to
pay
interest
and
principal
when
due
and
may
affect
the
overall
municipal
securities
market.
Municipal
obligations
concentrated
in
a
particular
geographic
region
may
make
the
Funds’
investments
more
susceptible
to
economic,
political,
regulatory,
or
other
factors
affecting
issuers
in
those
geographic
areas
and
may
increase
the
volatility
of
the
Funds’
net
asset
value.
In
addition,
changes
in
federal
tax
laws
or
the
activity
of
an
issuer
may
adversely
affect
the
tax-exempt
status
of
municipal
obligations.
Loss
of
tax-exempt
status
may
cause
interest
received
and
distributed
to
shareholders
by
the
Funds
to
be
taxable
and
may
result
in
a
significant
decline
in
the
values
of
such
municipal
obligations.
Credit
Risk
The
Funds
will
be
subject
to
credit
risk
with
respect
to
the
amount
each
expects
to
receive
from
counterparties
for
financial
instruments
entered
into
by
the
Funds.
The
Funds
may
be
negatively
impacted
if
a
counterparty
becomes
bankrupt
or
otherwise
fails
to
perform
its
obligations
due
to
financial
difficulties.
The
Funds
may
experience
significant
delays
in
obtaining
any
recovery
in
bankruptcy
or
other
reorganization
proceeding
and
the
Funds
may
obtain
only
limited
recovery
or
may
obtain
no
recovery
in
such
circumstances.
The
Funds
typically
enter
into
transactions
with
counterparties
whose
credit
ratings
are
investment
grade,
as
determined
by
a
nationally
recognized
statistical
rating
organization
or,
if
unrated,
judged
by
the
Adviser
to
be
of
comparable
quality.
Derivatives
Risk
The
use
of
derivative
instruments,
such
as
futures
contracts
and
credit
default
swaps,
exposes
the
Funds
to
additional
risks
and
transaction
costs.
Risks
of
derivative
instruments
include:
(1)
the
risk
that
interest
rates,
securities
prices,
asset
values,
and
currency
markets
will
not
move
in
the
direction
that
a
portfolio
manager
anticipates;
(2)
imperfect
correlation
between
the
price
of
derivative
instruments
and
movements
in
the
prices
of
the
securities,
assets,
interest
rates
or
currencies
being
hedged;
(3)
the
fact
that
skills
needed
to
use
these
strategies
are
different
than
those
needed
to
select
portfolio
securities;
(4)
the
possible
absence
of
a
liquid
secondary
market
for
any
particular
instrument
and
possible
exchange
imposed
price
fluctuation
limits,
either
of
which
may
make
it
difficult
or
impossible
to
close
out
a
position
when
desired;
(5)
the
risk
that
adverse
price
movements
in
an
instrument
can
result
in
a
loss
substantially
greater
than
the
Funds’
initial
investment
in
that
instrument
(in
some
cases,
the
potential
loss
is
unlimited);
(6)
particularly
in
the
case
of
privately-negotiated
instruments,
the
risk
that
the
counterparty
will
not
perform
its
obligations,
which
could
leave
the
Funds
worse
off
than
if
it
had
not
entered
into
the
position;
and
(7)
the
inability
to
close
out
certain
hedged
positions
to
avoid
adverse
tax
consequences.
LIBOR
Discontinuation
Risk
The
terms
of
some
floating
rate
loans
and
other
instruments
that
were
previously
tied
to
the
London
Interbank
Offered
Rate
("LIBOR"),
which
functioned
as
a
reference
rate
or
benchmark
for
these
instruments
but
was
discontinued
as
a
floating
rate
benchmark
have
recently
transitioned
from,
or
continue
to
be
tied
to USD
LIBOR
synthetic
rates
that
continue
to
be
published
until
September
30,
2024.
Secured
Overnight
Financing
Rate
(SOFR)
has
largely
been
used
as
a
new
reference
rate
for
new
instruments.
There
is
no
assurance
that
proposed
replacement
rates
will
be
suitable
substitutes
for
LIBOR,
and
thus
the
substitution
of
such
rates
for
LIBOR
could
have
an
adverse
effect.
Market
Risk
Overall
market
risks
may
affect
the
value
of
the
Funds.
Domestic
and
international
factors
such
as
political
events,
war,
terrorism,
trade
disputes,
inflation
rates,
interest
rate
levels,
and
other
fiscal
and
monetary
policy
changes;
cybersecurity
incidents,
pandemics,
and
other
public
health
crises;
sanctions
against
a
particular
foreign
country,
its
nationals,
businesses,
or
industries;
and
related
geopolitical
events,
as
well
as
environmental
disasters
such
as
earthquakes,
fires,
and
floods,
or
other
catastrophes,
may
add
to
instability
in
global
economies
and
markets
generally,
and
may
lead
to
increased
market
volatility.
Global
economies
and
financial
markets
are
highly
interconnected,
which
Notes

Statements

increases
the
possibility
that
conditions
in
one
country
or
region
might
adversely
affect
issuers
in
another
country
or
region.
The
impact
of
these
and
other
factors
may
be
short-term
or
may
last
for
extended
periods.

Borrowing
and
Interfund
Lending:
Line
of
Credit:
The
Victory
Funds
Complex
participates
in
a
short-term
demand
note
“Line
of
Credit”
agreement
with
Citibank.
Under
the
agreement
with
Citibank,
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
may
borrow
up
to
$600
million,
of
which
$300
million
is
committed
and
$300
million
is
uncommitted.
$40
million
of
the
Line
of
Credit
is
reserved
for
use
by
the
Victory
Floating
Rate
Fund,
another
series
of
the
Victory
Funds
Complex,
with
Victory
Floating
Rate
Fund
paying
the
related
commitment
fees
for
that
amount.
The
purpose
of
the
Line
of
Credit
is
to
meet
temporary
or
emergency
cash
needs.
For
the year
ended
December
31,
2023,
Citibank
received
an
annual
commitment
fee
of
0.15%
on
$300
million
for
providing
the
Line
of
Credit.
Each
Fund
in
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
paid
a
pro-rata
portion
of
the
commitment
fees
plus
any
interest
on
amounts
borrowed.
Interest
is
based
on
the
one-month SOFR
plus
1.10
percent.
Effective
June
27,
2023,
the
agreement
was
renewed
with
a
termination
date
of
June
24,
2024,
and
the
annual
commitment
fee
of
0.15%
remained
unchanged. Interest
charged
to each
Fund during
the
period,
if
applicable,
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Operations
under
Line
of
credit
fees.

Based

Interfund
Lending:
The
Trust
and
the
Adviser
rely
on
an
exemptive
order
granted
by
the
SEC
in
March
2017
(the
“Order”),
permitting
the
establishment
and
operation
of
an
Interfund
Lending
Facility
(the
“Facility”).
The
Facility
allows
each
Fund
to
directly
lend
and
borrow
money
to
or
from
any
other
fund
in
the
Victory
Funds
Complex
that
is
permitted
to
participate
in
the
Facility,
relying
upon
the
Order
at
rates
beneficial
to
both
the
borrowing
and
lending
funds.
Advances
under
the
Facility
are
allowed
for
temporary
or
emergency
purposes,
including
the
meeting
of
redemption
requests
that
otherwise
might
require
the
untimely
disposition
of
securities,
and
are
subject
to
each
Fund’s
borrowing
restrictions.
The
interfund
loan
rate
is
determined,
as
specified
in
the
Order,
by
averaging
the
current
repurchase
agreement
rate
and
the
current
bank
loan
rate.
As
a
Borrower
(as
defined
in
the
Order),
interest
charged
to
each
Fund,
if
any,
during
the
period,
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Operations
under
Interfund
lending
fees.
As
a
Lender
(as
defined
in
the
Order),
interest
earned
by
each
Fund,
if
any,
during
the
period,
is
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Operations
under
Interfund
lending.
The
average
borrowing
or
lending
for
the
days
outstanding
and
average
interest
rate
for
the
Funds
that
utilized
this
Facility
during
the
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
were
as
follows:
*
Based
on
the
number

permanent
in
nature
(e.g.,
net
operating
loss
and
distribution
reclassification),
such
amounts
are
reclassified
within
the
components
of
net
assets
based
on
their
federal
tax-basis
treatment;
temporary
differences
(e.g.,
wash
sales)
do
not
require
reclassification.
To
the
extent
dividends
and
distributions
exceed
net
investment
income
and
net
realized
gains
for
tax
purposes,
they
are
reported
as
distributions
of
capital.
Net
investment
losses
incurred
by
the
Funds
may
be
reclassified
as
an
offset
to
capital
on
the
accompanying
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
As
of
December
31,
2023,
on
the
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities,
as
a
result
of
permanent
book-to-tax
differences,
reclassification
adjustments
were
as
follows:
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
during
the
tax
years
ended,
as
noted
below,
were
as
follows
(total
distributions
paid
may
differ
from
the
Statements
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets
because,
for
tax
purposes,
dividends
are
recognized
when
actually
paid).
As
of
December
31,
2023,
the
components
of
accumulated
earnings/(loss)
on
a
tax
basis
were
as
follows:
*
The
difference
between
the
book-basis
and
tax-basis
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
is
attributable
primarily
to
tax
deferral
of
losses
on
wash
sales
and
callable
bonds
amortization.
As
of December
31,
2023,
the
Funds
had
net
capital
loss
carryforwards
as
shown
in
the
table
below. 
It
is
unlikely
that
the
Board
will
authorize
a
distribution
of
capital
gains
realized
in
the
future
until
the

have
been
used.

New
Regulatory
Pronouncement:
In
October
2022,
the
SEC
adopted
the
Tailored
Shareholder
Reports
Rule
and
form
amendments
that
require,
among
other
things,
mutual
funds
and
ETFs
to
prepare
and
transmit
streamlined
annual
and
semi-annual
shareholder
reports.
In
connection
with
these
amendments,
certain
information
that
was
previously
disclosed
in
shareholder
reports
will
instead
be
made
available
online,
delivered
free
of
charge
upon
request,
and
filed
with
the
SEC
on
a
semi-annual
basis.
Also
in
connection
with
these
amendments,
annual
and
semi-annual
reports
will
be
provided
directly
to
shareholders,
either
in
paper
or
(if
the
shareholder
has
so
elected)
electronically.
Compliance
with
the
rule
and
form
amendments
begins
in
July
2024.
At
this
time,
management
is
evaluating
the
impact
of
these
amendments
on
the
shareholder
reports
for
the
Funds.

Subsequent
Event:
On
December
5,
2023,
the
Board
approved
the
adoption
of
a
conversion
feature
for
Class
R
of
the
Floating
Rate
Fund
and
Low
Duration
Bond
Fund.
Under
the
relevant
conversion
feature,
effective
after
the
close
of
business
on
March
28,
2024,
all
of
the
issued
and
outstanding
shares
of
Class
R
of
each
Fund
will
be
converted
into
shares
of
Class
A
of
each
Fund.
The
share
class
conversion
will
be
effectuated
on
the
basis
of
the
relative
NAVs
of
the
share
class
without
the
imposition
of
a
sales
charge.
Based
on
the
financial
information
for
the
Funds’
fiscal
year
ended
December
31,
2023,
Class
A
has
lower
gross
and
net
total
expense
ratios
than
Class

To
the
Shareholders
and
Board
of

of
Victory

Opinion
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statements
of
assets
and
liabilities,
including
the
schedules
of
portfolio
investments,
of
Victory
Low
Duration
Bond

Victory

Victory

Municipal

and
Victory
Floating

Fund
(the
“Funds”),
each
a
series
of
Victory
Portfolios,
as
of
December
31,
2023,
the
related
statements
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
related
notes,
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
then
ended
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
statements”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Funds
as
of
December
31,
2023,
the
results
of
their
operations
for
the
year
then
ended,
the
changes
in
net
assets
for
each
of
the
two
years
in
the
period
then
ended,
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
then
ended,
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Funds’
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Funds’
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
Funds
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.
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,
2023,
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
of
the
investment
companies
advised
by
Victory

Expense
Examples
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
may
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs, including
sales
charges
(loads)
on
purchases;
 and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees
and
other
Fund
expenses.
These
examples
are
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
These
examples
are
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
period
and
held
for
the
entire
period
from
July
1,
2023,
through
December
31,
2023.
The
Actual
Expense
figures
in
the
table
below
provide
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
below,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
The
Hypothetical
Expense
figures
in
the
table
below
provide
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
shareholder
reports
of
other
funds.
Please
note
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
below
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs.
Therefore,
the
hypothetical
expenses
in
the
table
are
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

Considerations
of
the
Board
in
Continuing
the
Investment
Advisory
Agreements
The
Board
approved
the
advisory
agreement
with
the
Adviser,
on
behalf
of
each
of
the
Funds
(the
“Advisory
Agreement”),
and
the
sub-advisory
agreement
between
the
Adviser
and
Park
Avenue
Institutional
Advisers
LLC
(the
“Sub-Adviser”),
on
behalf
of
each
of
the
High
Yield
Fund
and
Floating
Rate
Fund
(the
“Sub-Advisory
Agreement”
and
together
with
the
Advisory
Agreement,
the
“Agreements”),
at
a
meeting,
which
was
called
for
that
purpose,
on
December
5,
2023.
The
Board
also
considered
information
relating
to
the
Funds
and
the
Agreements
provided
throughout
the
year
and,
more
specifically,
at
the
meetings
on
October
17,
2023
and
December
5,
2023.
In
considering
whether
to
approve
the
Agreements,
the
Board
requested
from
the
Adviser
and
Sub-Adviser
certain
information
concerning
the
Funds
to
assist
it
in
evaluating
the
terms
of
the
Agreements.
In
response
to
the
request
from
the
Independent
Trustees,
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser
provided
information
and
reports
relevant
to
the
continuation
of
the
Agreements.
The
Board,
including
the
Independent
Trustees,
evaluated
this
information
along
with
other
information
obtained
throughout
the
year
and
was
advised
by
legal
counsel
to
the
Funds
and
independent
legal
counsel
to
the
Independent
Trustees.
The
Board
considered
each
Fund’s
advisory
fee,
expense
ratio
and
investment
performance
as
significant
factors
in
determining
whether
the
Agreements
should
be
continued.
The
Board
reviewed
numerous
factors
with
respect
to
each
Fund,
including
the
services
to
be
provided
by
the
Sub-Adviser.
In
considering
whether
the
compensation
paid
to
the
Adviser
was
fair
and
reasonable,
the
Board
also
evaluated,
among
other
things,
the
following
factors:
The
requirements
of
the
Funds
for
the
services
provided
by
the
Adviser;
The
nature,
quality
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
and
expected
to
be
provided;
The
performance
of
the
Funds
as
compared
to
comparable
funds;
The
fees
payable
for
the
services
and
whether
the
fee
arrangements
provided
for
economies
of
scale
that
would
benefit
Fund
shareholders
as
the
Funds
grow
(acknowledging
that
economies
of
scale
can
be
complex
to
assess
and
typically
are
not
directly
measurable)
and
whether
breakpoints
would
be
appropriate;
Whether
the
fee
would
be
sufficient
to
enable
the
Adviser
to
attract
and
retain
experienced
personnel
and
continue
to
provide
quality
services
to
the
Funds;
The
fees
paid
by
other
clients
of
the
Adviser
whose
accounts
are
managed
in
a
similar
investment
style
and
any
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
clients
compared
to
those
provided
to
the
Funds;
The
total
expenses
of
each
Fund;
Management’s
commitment
to
operating
the
Funds
at
competitive
expense
levels;
The
profitability
of
the
Adviser
(as
reflected
by
comparing
fees
earned
against
an
estimate
of
the
Adviser’s
costs)
with
respect
to
the
Adviser’s
relationship
with
the
Funds;
Research
and
other
service
benefits
received
by
the
Adviser
obtained
through
payment
of
client
commissions
for
securities
transactions;
Other
benefits
received
by
the
Adviser,
and
its
affiliates,
including
revenues
paid
to
the
Adviser,
or
its
affiliates,
by
the
Funds
for
administration
and
fund
accounting
services,
shareholder
services
and
distribution;
The
capabilities
and
financial
condition
of
the
Adviser;
Current
economic
and
industry
trends;
and
The
historical
relationship
between
each
Fund
and
the
Adviser.
In
considering
whether
the
compensation
paid
to
the
Sub-Adviser
was
fair
and
reasonable,
the
Board
also
evaluated,
among
other
things,
the
following
factors:
The
requirements
of
each
Fund
for
the

provided
by
the

The

extent
of
the

The
fees
payable
for
the
services;
Representations
by
the
Adviser
that
the
sub-advisory
fee
for
each
Fund
is
within
the
range
of
fees
agreed
to
in
the
market
for
similar
services;
Whether
the
fee
would
be
sufficient
to
enable
the
Sub-Adviser
to
attract
and
retain
experienced
personnel
and
continue
to
provide
quality
services
to
the
Funds;
Management’s
commitment
to
operating
the
Fund
at
competitive
expense
levels;
Research
and
other
service
benefits
received
by
the
Sub-Adviser
obtained
through

of
client
commissions
for
securities
transactions;
Other
benefits
received
by
the
Sub-Adviser
as
a
result
of
its
sub-advisory
relationship
with
the
Funds;
The
capabilities
and
financial
condition
of
the
Sub-Adviser;
The
nature,
quality
and
extent
of
the
oversight
and
compliance
services
provided
by

Current

and

the
funds
as
a
whole.
The
Board
retained
an
independent,
third-party
consultant
to
provide
comparative
information
about
fees,
expenses
and
performance,
and
to
design
and
maintain
a
database
of
relevant
information
designed
to
assist
the
Board
in
retrieving
and
analyzing
comparative
information.
The
Board
met
with
the
consultant
to
review
its
inputs
and
methodologies,
among
other
things.
The
Board
compared
each
Fund’s
gross
management
fee
and
total
operating
expense
ratio
on
a
net
and
gross
basis
with
the
median
gross
management
fee
and
median
expense
ratio
of
a
universe
of
comparable
mutual
funds
compiled
by
the
consultant,
and
a
peer
group
of
funds
with
similar
investment
strategies
selected
by
that
consultant
from
the
universe
of
comparable
funds.
The
Board
reviewed
the
factors
and
methodology
used
by
the
consultant
in
the
selection
of
each
Fund’s
peer
group,
including
the
consultant’s
selection
of
a
broad
universe
of
funds,
the
more
specific
universe
of
comparable
funds,
and
peer
groups
of
funds
with
comparable
investment
strategies
and
asset
levels,
among
other
factors.
The
Board
also
reviewed
any
changes
to
the
consultant’s
methodology
as
compared
to
the
prior
year,
including
those
resulting
from
the
Adviser’s
input,
if
any.
With
respect
to
certain
Funds,
the
Board
also
reviewed
fees
and
other
information
related
to
the
Adviser’s
management
of
similarly
managed
institutional
or
private
accounts,
and
the
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
accounts.
The
Board
noted
that
none
of
the
advisory
fee
arrangements
for
these
Funds
included
breakpoints,
which
would
be
a
structure
that
results
in
reduced
fees
as
a
fund
grows.
The
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
commitment
to
limit
expenses
as
discussed
in
more
detail
below.
For
Funds
with
total
net
expense
ratios
that
ranked
within
the
fourth
quartile
(most
expensive)
in
relation
to
their
peers
as
evaluated
by
a
consultant,
the
Board
requested,
and
the
Adviser
provided,
supplemental
information
about
the
level
of
fees
and
the
nature
of
the
services
provided.
The
Adviser
reviewed
additional
relevant
circumstances,
which
included,
among
other
things,
specialized
strategies,
small
or
decreasing
assets,
or
rapid
or
recent
changes
in
peer
expense
ratios.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
compliance
and
administrative
services
provided
to
the
Funds
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates,
including
the
Adviser’s
oversight
of
the
Funds’
day-to-day
operations
and
oversight
of
Fund
accounting,
assistance
in
meeting
legal
and
regulatory
requirements,
and
other
services
necessary
for
the
operation
of
the
Funds
and
the
Trust.
With
respect
to
the
High
Yield
Fund
and
Floating
Rate
Fund,
the
Board
also
considered
information
concerning
the
fee
paid
to
the
Sub-Adviser
under
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreement.
The
Board
considered
the
relative
roles
and
responsibilities
of
the
Adviser
and
Sub-Adviser
with
respect
to
the
applicable
Funds
and
noted
that,
among
other
things:
(1)
the
sub-advisory
fees
for
these
Funds
are
paid
by
the
Adviser
and,
therefore,
are
not
a
direct
expense
of
the
Funds;
and
(2)
the
Adviser
supervises
the
Sub-Adviser.
The
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
representation
that
the
fees
to
be
paid
to
the
Sub-Adviser
are
within
the
range
of
sub-advisory
fees
paid
to
other
sub-advisers
for
similar
services.
The
Board
reviewed
fees
and
other
information
related
to
the
Sub-Adviser’s
management
of
similarly
managed
institutional
or
private
accounts,
and
the
differences
in
the
services
provided
to
the
other
accounts.
The
Board
recognized
that
because
the
sub-advisory
fees
are
paid
by
the
Adviser,
any
arrangement
by
the
Sub-Adviser
to
either
increase
or
reduce
its
fee
would
have
no
direct
impact
on
the
Fund
or
its
shareholders.
The
Board
found
that
the
gross
annual
management
fee
paid
by
each
Fund
was
within
the
range
of
management
fees
paid
by
each
Fund’s
respective
peer
group.
The
Board
also
found
that
each
Fund’s
Class
A
net
annual
expense
ratio
was
reasonable
as
compared
with
each
Fund’s
respective
peer
group.
The
Board
considered
the
Adviser’s
contractual
agreement
with
each
Fund
to
waive
its
fees
and
reimburse
expenses
of
certain
classes
for
a
specified
period
of
time,
as
described
in
the
Fund’s
prospectus.
The
Board
reviewed
each
Fund’s
performance
over
one-,
three-,
five-
and
ten-year
periods
(as
applicable)
against
the
performance
of
the
Fund’s
selected
peer
group
and
benchmark
index.
The
Board
recognized
that
the
performance
of
the
Fund
and
the
peer
group
funds
are
net
of
expenses,
while
the
performance
of
the
benchmark
index
reflects
gross
returns.
The
Board
reviewed
various
other
specific
factors
with
respect
to
each
Fund,
as
described
below.
In
their
deliberations,
the
Trustees
did
not
rank
the
importance
of
any
particular
information
or
factor
considered
and
each
Trustee
may
have
attributed
different
weights
to
various
factors.
Low

Bond
Fund:
The
Board
compared
the
Fund’s
Class
A
performance
for
the
one-,
three-,
five-

Having

and

the

The

discussed
with

the

profile,

any
steps
taken
by
the

could
be
taken

to
enhance
performance.

2020,
the

assumed
day-to-day
portfolio
management
responsibilities
from
