ARTISAN PARTNERS FUNDS, INC.

Notes to Form N-Q December 31, 2013 (Unaudited)

(A) Organization:

As of December 31, 2013, Artisan Partners Funds, Inc. (“Artisan Funds”) is a series company comprised of thirteen open-end, diversified mutual funds. The following funds (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) are included in this report:

 

Fund Name

  
Artisan Emerging Markets Fund (“Emerging Markets Fund” or “Emerging Markets”)   
Artisan Global Equity Fund (“Global Equity Fund” or “Global Equity”)   
Artisan Global Opportunities Fund (“Global Opportunities Fund” or “Global Opportunities”)   
Artisan Global Small Cap Fund (“Global Small Cap Fund” or “Global Small Cap”)   
Artisan Global Value Fund (“Global Value Fund” or “Global Value”)   
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”)   
Artisan Value Fund (“Value Fund” or “Value”)   

The investment adviser for each Fund is Artisan Partners Limited Partnership (the “Adviser” or “Artisan Partners”). The Adviser is wholly owned by Artisan Partners Holdings LP (“Artisan Holdings”).

(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) each day the NYSE was open for regular session trading. For financial reporting purposes, information available subsequent to the close of NYSE trading and up to the date of the financial statements was considered in determining a fair value for investments held in each Fund and the resulting NAV presented. 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 security traded on a securities exchange, including the Nasdaq Stock Market, or over-the-counter was valued at the closing price as of the time of valuation on the exchange or market designated by the Funds’ accounting agent or pricing vendor as the principal exchange (each, a “principal exchange”). The closing price provided by the pricing vendor for an exchange may differ from the price quoted elsewhere 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 (i) the closing price on another exchange on which the security traded (if such price was made available by a pricing vendor) or (ii) the most recent bid quotation on the principal exchange or, if such bid was not available, from a secondary exchange or in the over-the-counter market.

Global Equity Fund, Global Opportunities Fund, Global Small Cap Fund, and Global Value Fund generally invested a significant portion of their total assets in securities principally traded in markets outside the U.S. Emerging Markets Fund, International Fund, International Small Cap Fund and International Value Fund generally invested 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 had the ability to invest, and some did invest, in securities principally traded outside the U.S. The foreign markets in which the Funds invested were sometimes open on days when the NYSE was not open and the Funds did not calculate their NAVs, and sometimes were not open on days when the Funds did calculate their NAVs. Even on days on which both the foreign market and the NYSE were open, several hours may have passed between the time when trading in the foreign market closed and the time as of which the Funds calculated their NAVs. That was generally the case for markets in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Australia and other Far Eastern markets. The regular closing time of foreign markets in North and South America was generally the same as the closing time of the NYSE and the time as of which the Funds calculated their NAVs.

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, and a Fund may therefore have used fair value pricing, if, among other things, the valuation committee believed that the price determined did not reflect a fair value of the security or that the value of the security might have been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the market in which the

 

56


security was principally traded but before the time for determination of NAV (a “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), 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 values of market indices, exchange traded funds or other financial instruments in the U.S. or other markets. 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 resulted in either a meeting of the valuation committee, which considered whether a subsequent event had occurred and whether local market closing prices continued 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.

When fair value pricing is employed, the value of a portfolio security used by a Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same security. 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 have been material to the NAV of the applicable Fund.

Foreign stocks may underperform U.S. stocks, and foreign stocks may be more volatile than U.S. stocks. Risks relating to investments in foreign securities (including, but not limited to, depositary receipts and participation certificates) include: currency exchange rate fluctuation; less available public information about the issuers of securities; less stringent regulatory standards; lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards; and country risks including less liquidity, high inflation rates, unfavorable economic practices, political instability and expropriation and nationalization risks.

The risks of foreign investments typically are greater in emerging and less developed markets. For example, political and economic structures in these less developed countries may be new and changing rapidly, which may cause instability and greater risk of loss. These securities markets may be less developed and securities in those markets are generally more volatile and less liquid than those in developed markets. Emerging market countries also are more likely to experience high levels of inflation, deflation or currency devaluations, which could hurt their economies and securities markets. Certain emerging markets also may face other significant internal or external risks, including a heightened risk of war and ethnic, religious and racial conflicts. In addition, governments in many emerging market countries participate to a significant degree in their economies and securities markets, which may impair investment and economic growth of companies in those markets. High levels of national debt tend to make these markets heavily reliant on foreign capital and, therefore, vulnerable to capital flight.

(C) Fair Value Measurements:

Under United States generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurement, accounting standards clarify the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establish a framework for measuring fair value and require additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. In accordance with this standard, fair value is defined as the price that each Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. The standard establishes a three-tier hierarchy to distinguish between (1) inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs) and (2) inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs) and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in three broad levels:

 

  Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments
  Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including but not limited to quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risks and securities trading primarily outside the U.S. whose value the Fund adjusted as a result of significant market movements following the close of local trading)
  Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining a fair value of investments)

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

Derivative instruments are valued at unrealized appreciation (depreciation).

Transfers between investment levels may occur as the markets fluctuate and/or the availability of data used in an investment’s valuation changes. The Funds recognize transfers between the levels as of the end of the period. At December 31, 2013 the fair value of certain securities was determined based on other observable inputs, such as quoted prices for securities of the same issuer that trade on a different exchange, which resulted in their Level 2 classification. The following table summarizes security transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 and from Level 1 to Level 2 for each applicable Fund as of December 31, 2013 (in thousands):

At September 30, 2013, two equity securities held in Emerging Markets Fund were classified as Level 3 due to halts in trading. As of December 31, 2013, those securities were still held by the Fund and continued to be classified as Level 3 due to trading halts. Due to the lack of observable market data for these securities, fair market values were determined in good faith by the valuation committee using various inputs, including unobservable inputs of discounts for illiquidity and uncertainty of 90%. Increasing or decreasing the discounts for illiquidity and uncertainty would decrease or increase the calculated fair market value for these prices, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value, is as follows (in thousands):

Both Level 3 securities in Emerging Markets Fund were equity securities with a regional classification of Emerging Asia.

(D) Repurchase agreements:

Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with institutions that the Adviser determined were creditworthy pursuant to criteria adopted by the board of directors. Repurchase agreements were recorded at cost plus accrued interest and were collateralized in an amount greater than or equal to the repurchase price plus accrued interest. Collateral (in the form of U.S. government securities) was held by the Funds’ custodian and in the event of default on the obligation of the counterparty to repurchase, the Funds had 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 have suffered a loss.

(E) Depositary receipts:

Each Fund may invest in depositary receipts. Depositary receipts are typically issued by a financial institution (a “depositary”), evidencing ownership interests in a security issued by an issuer and deposited with the depositary.

(F) Foreign currency translation:

Values of foreign investments, open foreign currency forward contracts, payables for capital gains taxes, payables and receivables for securities transactions, dividend and reclaim receivables, other receivables and payables, and cash denominated in a foreign currency 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. Purchases and sales of investments and dividend and interest income were translated into U.S. dollars using the current spot market rate of exchange on the date of such transactions.

The Funds may enter into (a) foreign currency spot contracts and (b) foreign currency forward contracts. Foreign currency spot contracts are used to facilitate the purchase and sale of non-U.S. securities and generally settle within three business days. Foreign currency forward contracts are used to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risks on non-U.S. dollar denominated investment securities. The Funds could be exposed to loss if the counterparties fail to perform under these contracts. Open foreign currency spot contracts and foreign currency forward contracts, if any, were recorded at market value.

As of December 31, 2013, Emerging Markets, Global Opportunities, Global Value and International Value had outstanding foreign currency forward contracts, as shown on the Schedules of Investments. Foreign currency spot contracts are not separately disclosed in the Schedules of Investments.

(G) Equity-linked participation certificates:

Emerging Markets Fund, Global Equity Fund, Global Opportunities Fund, Global Small Cap Fund, Global Value Fund, International Fund, International Small Cap Fund, International Value Fund and Value Fund may invest in equity-linked participation certificates. Equity-linked participation certificates are designed to provide synthetic exposure to one or more underlying securities. An investment in an equity-linked participation certificate typically entitles the holder to a return equal to the market return of the underlying security or securities. There is no off-balance sheet risk associated with equity-linked participation certificates and the Funds’ potential loss is limited to the purchase price of the securities. The Funds are exposed to credit risk associated with the counterparty to the transaction, which is monitored by the Adviser on a periodic basis.

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

(I) 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 period ended December 31, 2013 (dollar values in thousands). 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 1940 Act ) during the period ended December 31, 2013.
