ARTISAN FUNDS, INC.

Notes to Form NQ – December 31, 2005 (Unaudited)

 

(A) Organization:

 

As of December 31, 2005, Artisan Funds, Inc. (“Artisan Funds”) is a series comprised of seven open-end, diversified mutual funds (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”):

 

Fund Name

Artisan International Fund (“International Fund” or “International”)

Artisan International Small Cap Fund (“International Small Cap Fund” or “International Small Cap”)

Artisan International Value Fund (“International Value Fund” or “International Value”)

Artisan Mid Cap Fund (“Mid Cap Fund” or “Mid Cap”)

Artisan Mid Cap Value Fund (“Mid Cap Value Fund” or “Mid Cap Value”)

Artisan Small Cap Fund (“Small Cap Fund” or “Small Cap”)

Artisan Small Cap Value Fund (“Small Cap Value Fund” or “Small Cap Value”)

 

(B) Security valuation:

 

The net asset value (“NAV”) of the shares of each class of each Fund was determined as of the close of regular session trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (usually 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, but sometimes earlier) each day the NYSE was open for regular session trading. The NAV of each class of shares was determined by dividing the value of each Fund’s securities and other assets attributed to that class, less its liabilities attributed to that class, by the number of outstanding shares of that class of that Fund.

 

In determining NAV, each equity security traded on a securities exchange, including the Nasdaq Stock Market, was valued at the closing price as of the time of valuation on the exchange or market on which the security was principally traded (the “principal exchange”). The closing price provided by each exchange may differ and may represent information such as last sales price, an official closing price, a closing auction price or other information, depending on exchange or market convention. Absent closing price information for a security from the principal exchange as of the time of valuation, the security was valued using the most recent bid quotation on the principal exchange, except that securities listed on the London Stock Exchange were valued at the mean of the most recent bid and asked quotations as of the time of valuation. Short-term investments maturing within sixty days of the valuation date were valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Securities for which prices were not readily available were valued by Artisan Funds’ valuation committee (the “valuation committee”) at a fair value determined in good faith under procedures established by and under the general supervision of Artisan Funds’ Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”). A price was considered to be not readily available if, among other things, the valuation committee believed that the price determined as described in the preceding paragraph did not reflect a fair value of the security.

 

International Fund, International Small Cap Fund and International Value Fund generally invest a significant portion, and perhaps as much as substantially all, of their total assets in securities principally traded in markets outside the U.S. Each of the other Funds has the ability to invest in securities principally traded outside the U.S., but did not do so during the three months ended December 31, 2005. The foreign markets in which the Funds may invest are sometimes open on days when the NYSE is not open and the Funds do not calculate their NAVs, and sometimes are not open on days when the Funds do calculate their NAVs. Even on days on which both the foreign market and the NYSE are open, several hours may have passed between the time when trading in the foreign market closed and the time as of which the Funds calculate their NAVs. That is generally the case for markets in Europe, Asia, Australia and other far eastern markets; the regular closing time of foreign markets in North and South America is generally the same as the closing time of the NYSE and the time as of which the Funds calculate their NAVs.

 

The valuation committee concluded that a price determined under the Funds’ valuation procedures was not readily available if, among other things, the valuation committee believed that the value of the security might have been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the market in which the security was principally traded but before the time for determination of NAV (“subsequent event”). A subsequent event might include a company-specific development (for example, announcement of a merger that is made after the close of the foreign market), a development that might affect an entire market or region (for example, imposition of foreign exchange controls by a foreign government) or a potentially global development (such as a terrorist attack that may be expected to have an impact on investor expectations worldwide) or a significant change in one or more United States securities indexes. Artisan Funds monitored for subsequent events using several tools, including the use of a third party research service to assist in determining estimates of fair values for foreign securities. That service utilized statistical data based on historical performance of securities, markets and other data in developing factors used to estimate a fair value. An indication by any of those tools of a potential material change in the value of securities results in either a meeting of the valuation committee, which considers whether a subsequent event has occurred and whether local market closing prices continue to represent fair values for potentially affected non-U.S. securities, and/or a valuation based on information provided by the third party research service.

 

Estimates of fair values utilized by the Funds as described above may differ from the value realized on the sale of those securities and the differences may be material to the NAV of the applicable Fund or to the information presented.

 

(C) Repurchase agreements:

 

Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with institutions that Artisan Partners Limited Partnership (“the Adviser”) has determined are creditworthy pursuant to criteria adopted by the Board of Directors. Repurchase agreements are recorded at cost plus accrued interest and are collateralized in an amount greater than or equal to the repurchase price plus accrued interest. Collateral is held by the Funds’ custodian and in the event of default on the obligation of the counterparty to repurchase, the Funds have the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. If the proceeds from any sale of such collateral were less than the repurchase price, the Fund would suffer a loss.

 

(D) Foreign currency translation:

 

Values of investments, open foreign currency forward contracts, payables for capital gains taxes and cash denominated in foreign currencies were translated into U.S. dollars using a spot market rate of exchange as of the time of determination of each Fund’s NAV on the day of valuation. Payables and receivables for securities transactions, dividend and reclaim receivables and other receivables and payables denominated in a foreign currency were translated into U.S. dollars using a spot market rate of exchange as of 12:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the day of valuation. Purchases and sales of investments and dividend and interest income are translated into U.S. dollars using a spot market rate of exchange as of 12:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the date of such transactions.

 

(E) Investment transactions:

 

Securities transactions are recorded on trade date. The cost of securities purchased and the proceeds from the sale of securities (excluding short-term securities) for the three months ended December 31, 2005 were as follows:

The difference between cost of investments for financial reporting and cost of investments for Federal income tax is due primarily to timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on security transactions, including wash sale loss deferrals and passive foreign investment company transactions.

 

(G) Transactions in securities of affiliates:

 

The table below shows information about securities of the Funds’ “affiliates” (as defined below) that were held by the Funds, purchased or sold by the Funds, or from which dividends were received by the Funds during the three months ended December 31, 2005. The Funds identify a company as an affiliate for the purpose of this report if one or more of the Funds owned, in the aggregate, voting securities that it believed represented 5% or more of that company’s outstanding voting securities (as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940) during the three months ended December 31, 2005.
