Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. The Funds may invest in foreign securities, which are subject to the risks of currency fluctuations, political and economic instability and differences in accounting methods. Investing in foreign securities is riskier than investing in domestic securities. The Funds invest in smaller companies, which involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. The Funds’ environmental policy could cause them to make or avoid investments that could result in the portfolios underperforming similar funds that do not have an environmental policy. There are no assurances that the Funds will achieve their objective and/or strategy.

Alpha is a measure of performance on a risk-adjusted basis. Alpha takes the volatility (price risk) of a mutual fund and compares its risk-adjusted performance to a benchmark index. The excess return of the mutual fund relative to the return of the benchmark index is a mutual fund’s alpha.
 
Basis points (bps) are units of measure for interest rates and other percentages, commonly used to describe the percentage change in interest rates, bond yields, and other financial instruments. One basis point is equal to 1/100th of 1%, or 0.01% (0.0001).

Gross expense ratio is from Global Equity’s prospectus dated October 31, 2022. See the Global Equity Fund’s Financial Highlights in this report for the most current expense ratios.

During the period, asset allocation and security selection were about equally responsible for the underperformance. From a sector perspective, Energy continued to be a meaningful headwind as our portfolio is fossil fuel free by design and Energy delivered strong returns versus other sectors in the benchmark. The drag was mitigated to a degree by our significant underweight to the Communication Services sector and overweight to Industrials. Stock selection was strongest in the Consumer Discretionary sector which benefited from what we didn’t own (Tesla -45% and Amazon -21%) as well as what we owned in an overweight exposure (TJX Companies +44%). Stock selection was weakest in Industrials, where we also were impacted by what we didn’t own due to ESG considerations (aerospace & defense) as well as what we owned (Generac -52%). As the US Dollar depreciated against the Euro in the back half of the year, currency effect turned into a tailwind given our historical, bottom-up overweight to the Western European region.

Performance Leaders (6 months ended 12/31/22):
 
TJX Companies (+43.8%) reported favorable results in this period, beating comp and margin estimates, and showing signs of continued recovery and healthier trends than big box peers. The company is also benefitting from an improved outlook amidst one of the strongest buying environments in recent history for off-price retail. TJX could also stand to benefit from share gains and trade-down as we move into a macro slowdown.
 
After underperforming many of its large biopharma company peers earlier in the year, Gilead (+41.6%) significantly outperformed in the back half, particularly after it reported favorable third quarter 2022 operating and financial results, and because of its low forward valuation going into the quarter. After multiple years of sector relative stock return underperformance largely associated with a lack of commercialized products that could realize sustainable profit growth, we expect that this company’s outlook is improving after several years of aggressive business development under the leadership of its CEO which should provide a foundation for better and more sustainable growth in the future.
 
Performance Laggards (6 months ended 12/31/22):
 
The largest detractor to the portfolio over the period was electrical equipment player Generac Holdings (-52.2%). Generac’s stock suffered as an installation partner filed for bankruptcy and product quality issues arose in the emerging, battery-based business. Further, the home generator market was oversupplied later in 2022, as installation capacity was constrained on labor/permitting and has not caught up to Generac’s increased production. Leading indicators in the generator market remain positive and continuing power outages/energy security concerns should continue to drive demand in the future. We recently added to the position given our conclusion that the risk/reward remains favorable.
 
Continuing its volatile performance swings, China’s electric vehicle market leader, BYD’s stock price had a reversal of fortunes and ended as a bottom performer in the back half of 2022. While first half volumes remained solid, despite price increases and continued global supply chain disruptions, the stock was pressured by global slowdown concerns. In addition, recent selling by large shareholder Berkshire Hathaway (still owns 15%+ of the Company) likely caused pause by some investors and may have spurred profit taking.
 
New Positions:
 
In terms of new positions, we added Prysmian, a global mid cap cable manufacturer and installer who engages in the design, manufacturing, and installation of cables for the energy and telecommunications industries. Prysmian was founded in 2005 and is headquartered in Milan, Italy. The Company is benefiting from the global secular tailwinds of energy transition, electrical grid expansion/replacement, infrastructure spend, and
 
 
3

telecommunications/ broadband network upgrade. With electricity consumption set to double and renewable capacity expected to quintuple by 2050 (BNP research 9/23/21), demand for Prysmian’s cables is expected to be strong – especially for high voltage (HV) cables, where 80% of the U.S and European market is controlled by just 3 producers. The urgency to move to renewable energy sources has been exacerbated since the invasion of Ukraine and countries around the world are accelerating investments in clean energy – providing a secular boost to Prysmian’s growth for years to come.
 
As long-term investors, we tend not to make dramatic changes, therefore, we focused our trading on adding to positions where we saw valuation dislocation or taking bigger bets in stocks we deemed well positioned for a slowing or recessionary economy. In keeping with our investment process, we funded these purchases by trimming certain, stronger performers including LPL Financial, Novo Nordisk and selling holdings we had lost conviction in, including specialty chemical player Novozymes A/S and UK building products player Kingspan Group. For Novozoymes, the proposed, all-stock ~$20B purchase of a competitor, Chr Hansen, is deemed too expensive (20% premium, >20x EBITDA at the unaffected share price) as well as increasing integration and diversification risks enough to degrade our quality-led thesis there. And, in terms of UK building materials supplier Kingspan, the cyclical headwinds for residential housing and commercial building related to the weakening economic outlook in Europe will likely more than offset market gains from energy efficiency demand.
 
Outlook:
 
2022 was a year of transitions and waiting: waiting to see if geopolitics would be totally upended by the Russian war and American elections; if Covid would continue its grip on the globe; if economies would settle back into “normal” conditions of the recent past; if continued strength of labor would persist in developed markets; if companies, investors, and governments would be serious about attempting to limit climate changing emissions against a more challenging economic backdrop. As we start 2023, these questions have not been definitively answered, but there are reasons to be hopeful. Equity markets had a notable rebound exiting 2022 (with a continuation in January) as market participants began to look through the widely expected upcoming recession, rejoicing at economic data that indicated inflation had moderated and might give the Fed reason to stop raising rates earlier than anticipated. However, recent economic datapoints continue to support further caution, particularly the still-strong labor market and the Fed’s own messaging about interest rate trajectories. The contractionary impulse seems clear, as such, there remains a significant risk that corporate earnings will need to be meaningfully lowered from current expectations. The question now starts to be, will the economy, both in the U.S. and in Europe, have a “soft” or “hard” landing as the

contractionary forces take hold? And, how much is already reflected in the valuations given the double digit declines in the equity markets in 2022? Markets will likely remain volatile as investors monitor every economic datapoint to devise the answer to these questions. As always, we remain dedicated to our longer-term investment process and discipline, with a focus on high-quality companies with proven management, strong balance sheets, and astute management of ESG related risks.
 
Advocacy:
 
During the second half of 2022, Trillium’s Advocacy program led to many improvements in companies’ environmental, social, and governance policies, and impacts. We filed numerous shareholder proposals, and engaged dozens of companies on critical social and environmental issues such as climate change, racial justice, toxic chemicals, and worker empowerment.
 
As more and more companies publicly declare their net zero by 2050 targets, Trillium is aware that, while these statements are important signals to the public and policymakers, companies need to have concrete, substantive plans in place in order to achieve the emissions reductions needed to avoid catastrophic warming. Companies that agree to net zero by 2050 but do not have interim greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions targets could rely on carbon offsets instead of actually reducing their footprints, which the global carbon budget cannot afford. That is why we are asking several portfolio companies to set short- and long-term GHG emissions reduction targets that are verified by a third-party to be in line with no more than 1.5 degrees of warming. Throughout the latter part of 2022, we filed shareholder proposals at two companies held in the Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund, United Parcel Service and Quanta Services, to set these science-based, GHG emissions reduction targets. These shareholder proposals will be the basis for conversations and shareholder votes through the winter and spring of 2023.
 
In the latter half of 2022 we continued to engage the companies where our racial equity audit shareholder proposals won strong support in the beginning of 2022. Pursuing engagements at SVB Financial Group, Travelers Companies, and American Water Works, we urged the companies to address systemic racism through a full review of their businesses inside and out applying a racial justice lens. Trillium and other investors are increasingly seeking assurances via third-party audits that companies understand racialized impacts in the workplace and on external stakeholders and have taken account of blind spots while implementing effective programs to address latent problems before they

metastasize. While we have seen some progress with some of these companies, we have re-filed our shareholder proposals for consideration at these companies’ 2023 annual meetings.

Gross expense ratio is from SMID Fund’s prospectus dated October 31, 2022. See the SMID Fund’s Financial Highlights in this report for the most current expense ratios. The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive certain fees through October 31, 2023. The net expense ratio is applicable to investors.

We had noted during 2022 that we expected economic growth to slow throughout the year, reflecting both decreases in fiscal stimulus and the ongoing tightening in financial conditions. During the fourth quarter, market participants began to look through the widely expected slowing financial conditions, rejoicing at economic data that indicated inflation had peaked and might give the Fed reason to stop raising rates earlier than anticipated. Economic data, however, continues to support further caution, particularly the still-strong labor market and the Fed’s own messaging about interest rate trajectories. We conclude that our focus on long-term company financial and sustainability fundamentals including management quality, and lower leverage, consistent with our historical investment process, will be the appropriate positioning.
 
One very bright spot in August 2022 was the surprise mid-quarter passage of the climate change-fighting Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which drove very strong returns for companies involved in renewable energy, clean technology, and the energy transition. While this legislation will not halt the devastation of climate change on its own, providing long-term regulatory stability and support

for domestic renewable energy supplies will help ensure that the buildout of renewable energy continues, providing a strong backdrop for many of our portfolio companies.
 
Relative to the S&P 1000, the contribution from sector weighting was neutral for the second half of 2022. Our underweight position in the Energy sector, one of the strongest sector performers during the period, had a negative impact (-46 basis points) while our overweight to Industrials and underweight to Real Estate and Healthcare sectors were positive contributors. All other sectors were mostly neutral. Overall, stock selection hurt the strategy during this period. Positive selection contributions from Consumer Discretionary, Information Technology, Industrials, and Communication Services were not enough to offset the negative effects from Healthcare, Materials and Financials.
 
Performance Leaders:
 
Deckers Outdoors Corporation (+56.32%) reported strong results in the period, beating expectations and demonstrating continued momentum. Even with a slowing retail backdrop, the stock is well positioned in premium footwear, with notable growth from its HOKA brand and continued expansion opportunities in its UGG brand, both internationally and through the direct-to-consumer channel.
 
First Solar Inc (+119.86%) is primarily a utility-scale solar powered project developer and one of the largest beneficiaries of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Not only does the IRA give incentives for building solar generation capacity, it also gives a large credit to US-made solar panels, a segment where FSLR is essentially the only manufacturer of scale. The company has a strong pipeline of orders and is sold out of capacity through 2025. We have taken advantage of the strength in the stock to trim our position.
 
Performance Laggards:
 
Omnicell (-55.67%) has been negatively impacted by hospital capital expenditure budget freezes and delays, as well as hospital labor availability challenges. We continue to favor Omnicell as a long-term investment opportunity as its medication management and pharmacy automation equipment and services help their hospital customers improve their productivity, patient safety, and reduce their dependency on labor.
 
Syneos Health (-48.83%), a clinical research organization, announced disappointing financial results given order postponements by its biopharma company customers. While we continue to like the company’s end market, we are paying especially close attention to this company’s end market and operations to determine if there are company specific issues associated with this investment opportunity.

New Positions/Trades
 
Although improving, supply chain disruptions continue to exist in the market. The macroeconomic outlook remains cloudy, with the prospect of tepid economic growth, at best. The ultimate effect of the Russian invasion of Ukraine on climate policy remains unknown, although higher perceived supply risks and higher fossil-fuel energy prices appear to be accelerating the adoption of clean energy technologies. On the heels of the remarkably rapid increase in the Federal Funds rate, we are still cautious, although this is offset by a rise in opportunities stemming from more attractive valuations. We believe that we are adequately positioned for a more risk-off market.
 
Given the ongoing volatility in the markets, we continued to carefully review our portfolio characteristics and proposed trades. As long-term investors, we tend not to make dramatic changes, but rather seek companies we have long term conviction in and we believe will demonstrate greater earnings stability as we go into a slowdown. Therefore, we pursue trading that will improve characteristics that would be beneficial during times of economic stress, while not changing the overall complexion of the portfolio. The sharp pressure on the valuation of certain stocks, that we believe have been de-risked, has provided us with the opportunity to add some new names to the portfolio with solid secular growth characteristics over our longer-term investment horizon.
 
New positions include Etsy, an online marketplace offering diverse products, giving us exposure to economic empowerment and pureplay ecommerce, a channel we believe is gaining share despite the post pandemic lull. We conclude the company has a solid management team and a strong sustainability commitment that differentiates it from its peers. Ball Corp, is a global market share leader in aluminum beverage cans. Global growth of beverage cans remains resilient, and aluminum is a more sustainable substrate that continues to see potential share gains from plastics and glass. Intercontinental Hotels is the third largest, lodging brands company globally and gives us exposure to a rebound in business related travel.
 
We added to existing positions in Burlington Stores, Omnicell and AMN Healthcare Services as well as MSA Safety, Trimble and Solar Edge Technologies. We funded these purchases by selling stocks that we had either less conviction in, such as Minerals Technologies and Acadia Realty Trust, or trimming stocks where increases in valuation required reductions in Fund positioning, which included Deckers Outdoors Corp, Lamb Weston, and LPL Holdings. We sold Zendesk following the company’s receipt of an acquisition offer from a private equity firm and redeployed the capital within the IT sector to security software provider Cyberark Software and laser-innovator IPG Photonics. Additionally, we exited our position in West Pharmaceuticals given its appreciation to the larger end of our market cap range.

Relative to large cap stocks, the valuation of the S&P 1000, our benchmark, is at multi-decade lows as of this writing. We have seen pressure on valuation multiples throughout the year and we are now seeing downward pressure on earnings. Market sentiment is variable and skewed bearish, which tends to indicate a favorable time to invest for the long term. In addition, small cap stocks tend to fare better coming out of recessions or economic slowdowns. While it is impossible to time a bottom, nor do we try, we feel optimistic in the longer-term for our SMID portfolio holdings, given our focus on sustainable companies that demonstrate management quality and balance sheet strength, especially as we navigate these volatile times in the market. Our belief in the importance of ESG is unabated, as we are convinced more than ever of the importance of integrating beyond-financial environmental, social and governance concerns into our investment decisions.
 
Advocacy:
 
During the second half of 2022, Trillium’s Advocacy program led to many improvements in companies’ environmental, social, and governance policies, and impacts. We filed numerous shareholder proposals, and engaged dozens of companies on critical social and environmental issues such as climate change, racial justice, toxic chemicals, and worker empowerment.
 
According to the Human Rights Campaign’s (“HRC”) Corporate Equality Index (“CEI”), automobile parts manufacturer LKQ Corporation lags other companies in providing an LGBTQ+-inclusive workplace. The company scored 55/100 in 2022 and according to HRC does not offer equal health coverage for transgender individuals. Conversely, 67% of the Fortune 500 and 86% of all 1200 CEI-rated businesses offer transgender-inclusive health insurance coverage. We are particularly concerned because LKQ’s employees may be especially affected by the lack of supportive corporate and state policies. Approximately 39% of LKQ’s employees are based in North America. Tennessee, considered one of the worst states for LGBTQ+ equality with 31 anti-LGBTQ+ bills proposed in 2021, is a major operating location for LKQ. November, we filed a shareholder proposal at LKQ asking the company to adopt and publicly disclose a policy offering all employees affirmative transgender-inclusive healthcare coverage.

This chart illustrates the performance of a hypothetical $100,000 investment made on August 31, 2015, and is not intended to imply any future performance. The returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. The returns reflect fee waivers in effect. In the absence of such waivers, total return would be reduced. The chart assumes reinvestment of capital gains, dividends, and return of capital for the Fund and dividends for an index, but does not reflect redemption fees.
 
Performance data quoted represents past performance; past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end may be obtained by calling 866-209-1962.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

The Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund (the “Fund” or “Global Equity Fund”) and Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund (the “Fund” or “SMID Fund”) are diversified series of shares of beneficial interest of Professionally Managed Portfolios (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) as an open-end investment management company. The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services—Investment Companies.” The Funds commenced operations on September 30, 1999 and August 31, 2015, respectively.
 
The Global Equity Fund and the SMID Fund have Retail Class and Institutional Class shares (Retail Class shares are not currently offered for SMID Fund). Institutional Class are offered primarily for direct investment by investors such as pension and profit-sharing plans, employee benefit trusts, endowments, foundation, and corporations. Each class of shares has equal rights as to earnings and assets except that the Retail Class bears Distribution fees. Global Equity Fund Retail Class also bears Sub-Transfer Agent fees. Each class of shares has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect just that class. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.
 
The Global Equity Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in common stocks of companies that it believes are leaders in managing environmental risks and opportunities, have above average growth potential, and are reasonably valued. The investment objective of SMID Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation by identifying companies that it believes are strategic leaders, based on business models that it believes are superior and have the ability to create consistent earnings growth.
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
 
 
A.
Security Valuation. All equity securities, which may include Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”), Business Development Companies (“BDCs”) and Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”), that are traded on U.S. national or foreign securities exchanges are valued either at the last

34

Trillium Mutual Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2022 (Unaudited), Continued

   
reported sale price on the exchange on which the security is principally traded or the exchange’s official closing price, if applicable. If, on a particular day, an exchange-traded security does not trade, then the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices will be used. All equity securities which may include REITs, BDCs, and MLPs that are not traded on a listed exchange are valued at the last sale price in the over- the-counter market. If a non-exchange traded security does not trade on a particular day, then the mean between the last quoted closing bid and asked price will be used.
     
   
For foreign securities traded on foreign exchanges the Trust has selected ICE Data Service’s Fair Value Information Services (“FVIS”) to provide pricing data with respect to foreign security holdings held by the Global Equity Fund. The use of this third-party pricing service is designed to capture events occurring after a foreign exchange closes that may affect the value of certain holdings of the Global Equity Fund’s securities traded on those foreign exchanges. The Global Equity Fund utilizes a confidence interval when determining the use of the FVIS provided prices. The confidence interval is a measure of the historical relationship that each foreign exchange traded security has to movements in various indices and the price of the security’s corresponding American Depositary Receipt, if one exists. FVIS provides the confidence interval for each security for which it provides a price. If the FVIS provided price falls within the confidence interval the Global Equity Fund will value the particular security at that price. If the FVIS provided price does not fall within the confidence interval the particular security will be valued at the preceding closing price on its respective foreign exchange, or if there were no transactions on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices. The SMID Fund does not hold foreign securities traded on foreign exchanges.
     
   
Prior to the effectiveness of Rule 2a-5 on September 8, 2022, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) had delegated day-to-day valuation issues to a Valuation Committee of the Trust which is comprised of representatives from the Funds’ administrator, U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, doing business as U.S. Bank Global Fund Services (“Fund Services”).
     
   
The function of the Valuation Committee was to value securities where current and reliable market quotations are not readily available or the closing price does not represent fair value by following procedures approved by the Board. These procedures considered many factors, including the type of security, size of holding, trading volume and news events. All actions taken by the Valuation Committee were subsequently

35

Trillium Mutual Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2022 (Unaudited), Continued

   
reviewed and ratified by the Board. The Valuation Committee served until September 7, 2022. Effective September 8, 2022, the Board approved Becker Capital Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”), as the Fund’s valuation designee under Rule 2a-5.
     
   
As described above, the Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of most of their investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:

 
Level 1 –
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access.
     
 
Level 2 –
Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
     
 
Level 3 –
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available; representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability and would be based on the best information available.

   
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
     
   
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

B.
Foreign Currency. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions.
     
   
The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
     
   
The Funds report net realized foreign exchange gains or losses that arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
     
 
C.
Federal Income Taxes. Each Fund has elected to be taxed as a “regulated investment company” and intends to distribute substantially all taxable income to its shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.
     
   
In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, the Funds intend to declare each year as dividends in each calendar year at least 98.0% of their net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of their net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts, if any, from prior years.

38

Trillium Mutual Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2022 (Unaudited), Continued

   
Net capital losses incurred after October 31, and within the taxable year, are deemed to arise on the first business day of each Fund’s next taxable year. Net investment losses incurred after December 31, and within the taxable year, are deemed to arise on the first business day of each Fund’s next taxable year. As of fiscal year end June 30, 2022, there were no post-October losses for the Global Equity Fund. The SMID Fund had a post-October loss of $88,867.
     
   
As of the most recent fiscal year end June 30, 2022, there were no late year losses or capital loss carryovers for the Funds.
     
   
As of December 31, 2022, the Funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Generally, tax authorities can examine all the tax returns filed for the last three years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. As of December 31, 2022, the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially.
     
 
D.
Security Transactions and Investment Income. Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Discounts/premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted/amortized over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends received from REITs generally are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains, and may include return of capital. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Trust’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. Withholding tax reclaims are filed in certain countries to recover a portion of the amounts previously withheld. The Funds record a reclaim receivable based on, among other things, a jurisdiction’s legal obligation to pay reclaims as well as payment history and market convention.
     
 
E.
Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains on securities, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, normally are declared and paid on an annual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex- dividend date.

39

Trillium Mutual Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2022 (Unaudited), Continued

 
F.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     
 
G.
Share Valuation. The net asset value (“NAV”) per share of the Funds are calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by each Fund, plus cash and other assets, minus all liabilities including estimated accrued expenses by the total number of shares outstanding for the Funds, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading. The offering and redemption price per share for the Funds are equal to each Fund’s net asset value per share. The SMID Fund charges a 2% redemption fee on shares held less than 90 days. The fee is deducted from the redemption proceeds otherwise payable to the shareholder. The SMID Fund will retain the fee charged as paid-in-capital and such fees become part of the SMID Fund’s daily NAV calculation.
     
 
H.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
     
 
I.
Illiquid Securities. Pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted a Board approved Liquidity Risk management Program (“LRMP”) that requires, among other things, that the Funds limit its illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of net assets. An illiquid investment is any security which may not reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment.
     
 
J.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement. In June 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2022-03, which amends Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2022-03”). ASU 2022-03 clarifies guidance for fair value measurement of an equity security subject to a contractual sale restriction and establishes new disclosure

40

Trillium Mutual Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2022 (Unaudited), Continued

   
requirements for such equity securities. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.  Management is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments.
     
 
K.
Subsequent Events. In preparing these financial statements, the Fund have evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. The Funds have determined that there were no subsequent events that would need to be disclosed in the Funds’ financial statements.

NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Adviser provides the Funds with investment management services under an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”). Under the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides all investment advice, office space, certain administrative services, and provides most of the personnel needed by each Fund. As compensation for its services, the Adviser is entitled to a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.85% on daily net assets up to $1 billion and 0.75% on daily net assets greater than $1 billion for the Global Equity Fund. The Adviser is entitled to a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.75% based upon the average daily net assets of the SMID Fund, net of any monthly waiver or reimbursement discussed below. The investment advisory fees incurred by the Funds for the six months ended December 31, 2022, are disclosed in the Statements of Operations. The investment advisory fees incurred are paid monthly to the Adviser, net of any monthly waiver or reimbursement discussed below.
 
The Adviser has contractually agreed to limit expenses for the SMID Fund by reducing all or a portion of its fees and reimbursing Fund expenses so that the Fund’s ratio of expenses to average net assets will not exceed 0.98% for the Institutional Class. The Operating Expenses Limitation Agreement has an indefinite term and may be terminated at any time, and without payment of any penalty, by the Board on behalf of the SMID Fund, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Adviser. Any fees waived and/or Fund expenses absorbed by the Adviser pursuant to an agreed-upon expense cap shall be reimbursed by the Fund to the Adviser, if so requested by the Adviser, any time before the end of the third year following the fee waiver and/or expense absorption, provided the aggregate amount of the Fund’s current operating expenses for such year does not exceed the lesser expense cap in place at the time of waiver or at the time of reimbursement. SMID Fund must pay its current ordinary operating expenses before the Adviser is entitled to any reimbursement of fees and/or expenses. Any such reimbursement is also contingent upon the Board’s review and approval. The amount of fees waived and expenses absorbed by the Adviser

NOTE 4 – SECURITIES LENDING

The Global Equity Fund may lend up to 33 1/3% of the securities in its portfolio to brokers, dealers and financial institutions (but not individuals) under terms of participation in a securities lending program administered by U.S. Bank N.A. The securities lending agreement requires that loans are collateralized at all times in an amount equal to at least 100% of the market value of any loaned securities at the time of the loan, plus accrued interest.
 
The Global Equity Fund receives compensation in the form of fees and earn interest on the cash collateral. The amount of fees depends on a number of factors, including the type of security and length of the loan. The Funds continue to receive interest payments or dividends on the securities loaned during the borrowing period. The Global Equity Fund has the right under the terms of the securities lending agreement to recall the securities from the borrower on demand.
 
As of December 31, 2022, the Global Equity Fund has loaned securities that were collateralized by cash equivalents. The cash collateral is invested by U.S. Bank N.A. in accordance with approved investment guidelines. Those guidelines require the cash collateral to be invested in readily marketable, high quality, short-term obligations; however, such investments are subject to risk of payment delays or default on the part of the issuer or counterparty or otherwise may not generate sufficient interest to support the costs associated with securities lending. The Global Equity Fund could also experience delays in recovering its securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return the borrowed securities, although the Fund is indemnified from this risk by contract with the securities lending agent.
 
As of December 31, 2022, the market value of the securities on loan and payable collateral received for securities lending were as follows:

Payable on
   
Securities on Loan

The Global Equity Fund receives cash as collateral in return for securities lent as part of the securities lending program. The collateral is invested in the First American Government Obligations Fund (a money market fund subject to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act). The Schedule of Investments for the Global Equity Fund includes the particular cash collateral holding as of December 31, 2022. The remaining contractual maturity of all securities lending transactions is overnight and continuous.

The net fee and interest income earned by the Global Equity Fund on investments of cash collateral received from borrowers for the securities loaned are reflected in the Statement of Operations.
 
Due to the absence of a master netting agreement related to the Global Equity Fund’s participation in securities lending, no additional offsetting disclosures have been made on behalf of the Global Equity Fund for the total borrowings listed above.

NOTE 8 – (COVID-19) PANDEMIC

The global outbreak of COVID-19 (commonly referred to as “coronavirus”) has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. Although vaccines for COVID-19 are becoming more widely available, the ultimate economic fallout from the pandemic, amid the spread of COVID-19 variants, and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries and individual companies are not known. The operational and financial performance of individual companies and the market in general depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of any future outbreaks and the pace of recovery which may vary from market to market, and such uncertainty may in turn adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments, impair the Fund’s ability to satisfy redemption requests, and negatively impact the Fund’s performance.

EXPENSE EXAMPLES For the six months ended December 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, distribution fees (12b-1), and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds 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 (July 1, 2022 – December 31, 2022).
 
Actual Expenses
 
The “Actual” line for each respective class of the following tables provides information about actual account values based on actual returns and actual expenses. Although the Funds charge no sales load, you will be assessed fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks and stop payment orders at prevailing rates charged by Fund Services, the Funds’ transfer agent. If you request that a redemption be made by wire transfer, the Funds’ transfer agent currently charges a $15.00 fee. The SMID Fund charges a redemption fee equal to 2.00% of the net amount of the redemption if you redeem shares within 90 calendar days after you purchase them. An Individual Retirement Account will be charged an annual maintenance fee. To the extent the Funds invest in shares of other investment companies as part of their strategies, you will indirectly bear your proportionate share of any fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds in which the Funds invest in addition to the expenses of the Funds. Actual expenses of the underlying funds may vary. These expenses are not included in the following examples.
 
The following examples include, but are not limited to, investment advisory fees, shareholder servicing fees, distribution fees, fund accounting fees, fund administration fees, custody fees, and transfer agent fees. However, the following examples do not include portfolio trading commissions and related expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first line under the heading titled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
 
The “Hypothetical” line for each respective class of the following tables provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the
 

47

Trillium Mutual Funds

EXPENSE EXAMPLES For the six months ended December 31, 2022 (Unaudited), Continued

actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. Therefore, each hypothetical line of the tables is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

At a meeting held on August 17-18, 2022, the Board (which is comprised of five persons, all of whom are Independent Trustees as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940) considered and approved the continuance of the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between Professionally Managed Portfolios (the “Trust”) and Trillium Asset Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) for each of the Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund and the Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund (each a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”).  At this meeting and at a prior meeting held on June 16, 2022, the Board received and reviewed substantial information regarding the Funds, the Adviser and the services provided by the Adviser to the Funds under the Advisory Agreement.  This information, together with the information provided to the Board throughout the course of the year, formed the primary (but not exclusive) basis for the Board’s determinations.  The Board noted that Trillium has informed the Trust and Board that it was considering a potential transaction that could involve a recommendation for the reorganization of the Funds outside of the Trust’s umbrella. .  In that regard, the Board noted that any such potential  recommendation  was not yet certain.  Below is a summary of the factors considered by the Board and the conclusions that formed the basis for the Board’s approval of the continuance of the Advisory Agreement:
 
 
1.
The nature, extent and quality of the services provided and to be provided by the Adviser under the Advisory Agreement.  The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s overall services provided to the Funds as well as its specific responsibilities in all aspects of day-to-day investment management of the Funds.  The Board considered the qualifications, experience and responsibilities of the portfolio managers, as well as the responsibilities of other key personnel of the Adviser involved in the day-to-day activities of the Funds.  The Board also considered the resources and compliance structure of the Adviser, including information regarding its compliance program, its chief compliance officer and the Adviser’s compliance record, as well as the Adviser’s cybersecurity program, business continuity plan, and risk management process.  The Board also considered the prior relationship between the Adviser and the Trust, as well as the Board’s knowledge of the Adviser’s operations, and noted that during the course of the prior year they had met with certain personnel of the Adviser to discuss fund performance and investment outlook, as well as, various marketing and compliance topics.  The Board concluded that the Adviser had the quality and depth of personnel, resources, investment processes and compliance policies and procedures essential to performing its duties under the Advisory Agreement and that they were satisfied with the nature, overall quality and extent of such management services.


49

Trillium Mutual Funds

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (Continued)

 
2.
The Funds’ historical performance and the overall performance of the Adviser. In assessing the quality of the portfolio management delivered by the Adviser, the Board reviewed the short-term and long-term performance of each Fund on both an absolute basis, and in comparison to its peer funds utilizing Morningstar classifications and appropriate securities market benchmarks and the Adviser’s similarly managed accounts, all for periods ended March 31, 2022.  The Board also considered performance against a smaller group of peers selected by an independent third-party consultant engaged by the Board to assist it in its 15(c) review (the “Cohort”).  While the Board considered both short-term and long-term performance, it placed greater emphasis on longer term performance.  When reviewing each Fund’s performance against its comparative peer group universe, the Board took into account that the investment objective and strategy of each Fund, as well as its level of risk tolerance, may differ significantly from funds in its respective peer universe. When reviewing each Fund’s performance against broad market benchmarks, the Board took into account the differences in portfolio construction between the Funds and such benchmarks, as well as other differences between actively managed funds and passive benchmarks, such as objectives and risks. In assessing periods of relative underperformance or outperformance, the Board took into account that relative performance can be significantly impacted by performance measurement periods and that some periods of underperformance may be transitory in nature while others may reflect more significant underlying issues.  The Board also recognized that each Fund’s investments are subject to the Advisor’s ESG investment criteria as set forth in its prospectus, and that shareholders investing in the Fund accept and desire a fund employing such criteria, even if it may impact performance to a greater extent than other funds.
     
   
For the Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund, the Board noted that the Fund outperformed its peer group median for the one-year, three-year, and five-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund outperformed the average of its Cohort for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods.  The Board also considered that the Fund underperformed its broad-based securities market benchmark for the one-year period and outperformed for the three- and five-year periods.  The Board noted that the Adviser represented it does not have other accounts managed similarly to the Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund.
     
   
For the Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund, the Board noted that the Fund underperformed its peer group median for the one- and three-year periods and outperformed for the five-year period.  The Board also noted


50

Trillium Mutual Funds

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (Continued)

   
that the Fund underperformed the average of its Cohort for the one-and three-year periods and outperformed for the five-year period.  The Board also considered that the Fund underperformed its broad-based securities market benchmark for the one-year, three-year, and five-year periods.  The Board also considered the Fund’s underperformance compared to the Adviser’s similarly managed composite for the one-year, three-year, and five-year periods, noting that such differences were not significant.
     
 
3.
The costs of the services provided by the Adviser and the structure of the Adviser’s fees under the Advisory Agreement. In considering the advisory fee and total fees and expenses of the Funds, the Board reviewed comparisons to the peer funds and similarly managed separate accounts for other types of clients advised by the Adviser, as well as all expense waivers and reimbursements.  When reviewing fees charged to other similarly managed accounts, the Board took into consideration the type of account and the differences in the management of that account that might be germane to the difference, if any, in the fees charged to such accounts.
     
   
For the Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund, the Board noted that the Fund’s advisory fee was higher than its peer group median and average and that the net expense ratio (less Rule 12b-1 fees) was higher than its peer group median and average.  The Board noted that the Fund’s net expense ratio (less Rule 12b-1 fees) was higher than the average of its Cohort.  The Board considered that the Advisor recently implemented breakpoints to the advisory fee in order to share economies of scale with the Fund. The Board concluded that the fees paid to the Adviser were fair and reasonable in light of the comparative performance and advisory fee information.
     
   
For the Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund, the Board noted that the Adviser had contractually agreed to maintain an annual expense ratio of 0.98% for the Fund, excluding certain operating expenses and class-level expenses (“Expense Cap”).  The Board noted that the Fund’s advisory fee and net expense ratio (less Rule 12b-1 fees) were higher than its peer group median and average.  The Board noted that the Fund’s net expense ratio (less Rule 12b-1 fees) was higher than the average of its Cohort.  The Board concluded that the fees paid to the Adviser were fair and reasonable in light of the comparative performance and advisory fee information.
     
   
The Trustees also took into consideration the services the Adviser provided to its similarly managed separate account clients, comparing the fees charged for those management services to the fees charged to the Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund.  The Trustees noted that the Adviser


51

Trillium Mutual Funds

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (Continued)

   
does not replicate the Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund’s investment style in separately managed accounts.  The Trustees noted that the fees charged to the Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund as compared to the fees charged by the Adviser to its similarly managed separate account clients differed due to a number of factors.
     
 
4.
Economies of Scale. The Board also considered whether economies of scale were being realized by the Adviser that should be shared with shareholders.  The Board noted that the Advisory Agreement for the Trillium ESG Global Equity Fund contains breakpoints in the advisory fee.  The Board also noted that the Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce its advisory fees or reimburse expenses so that the Trillium ESG Small/Mid Cap Fund does not exceed its specified Expense Cap.  The Board noted that at current asset levels, it did not appear that there were additional significant economies of scale being realized by the Adviser that should be shared with shareholders and concluded that it would continue to monitor economies of scale in the future as circumstances changed and assuming asset levels increase.
     
 
5.
The profits to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Funds. The Board reviewed the Adviser’s financial information and took into account both the direct benefits and the indirect benefits to the Adviser from advising the Funds.  The Board considered the profitability to the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds and considered any additional benefits derived by the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds, particularly benefits received in exchange for “soft dollars” paid to the Adviser.  After such review, the Board determined that the profitability to the Adviser with respect to the Advisory Agreement was not excessive, and that the Adviser had maintained adequate financial resources to support the services it provides to the Funds.

No single factor was determinative of the Board’s decision to approve the Advisory Agreement, but rather, the Board based its determination on the total mix of information available to them.  Based on a consideration of all the factors in their totality, the Board determined that the advisory arrangements with the Adviser, including the advisory fees, were fair and reasonable.  The Board therefore determined that the continuation of the Advisory Agreement would be in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders.

Trillium Mutual Funds

STATEMENT REGARDING LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (Unaudited)

Each Fund has adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Funds’ Board has designated a committee of the Adviser to serve as the administrator of the program. Personnel of Trillium conduct the day-to-day operation of the program pursuant to policies and procedures administered by the committee.
 
Under the program, the committee manages each Fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Fund. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of each Fund’s investments, limiting the amount of each Fund’s illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to each Fund for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. The committee’s process  of determining the degree of liquidity of each Fund’s investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
 
The Funds’ Board reviewed a report prepared by the committee regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022. No significant liquidity events impacting any of the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, the committee provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing each Fund’s liquidity risk.

In an effort to decrease costs, the Funds intend to reduce the number of duplicate prospectuses, proxy statements, and annual and semi-annual reports you receive by sending only one copy of each to those addresses shared by two or more accounts and to shareholders we reasonably believe are from the same family or household. Please call the Transfer Agent (or your financial institution) without charge at 866-209-1962 to request individual copies of these documents. The Funds will begin sending individual copies 30 days after receiving your request. This policy does not apply to account statements.
