NOTE
1 – ORGANIZATION
The
Villere Balanced Fund (the “Balanced Fund”) and the Villere Equity Fund (the “Equity Fund”) (the “Funds”)
are each a 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 management investment company.
Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies”. The Balanced
Fund commenced operations on September 30, 1999. The Equity Fund commenced operations on May 31, 2013.
The
investment objective of the Balanced Fund is to seek long-term capital growth consistent with preservation of capital and balanced by
current income. The investment objective of the Equity Fund is to achieve long-term 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. or foreign national securities exchanges are valued either
at the last 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. |
Debt
securities are valued by using the evaluated mean prices supplied by an approved independent pricing service. The independent pricing
service may use various valuation methodologies, including matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions
and dealer quotations. These models generally consider such factors as yields or prices of bonds of comparable quality, type of issue,
coupon, maturity, ratings and general market conditions.
Securities
for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their respective fair values as determined in accordance with procedures
approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated St. Denis
J. Villere & Co., LLC (the “Adviser”) as valuation designee to perform fair value determinations relating to the Fund’s
portfolio investments, subject to the Board’s oversight. Fair value pricing is an inherently subjective process, and no single standard
exists for determining fair value. Different funds could reasonably arrive at different values for the same security. The use of fair
value pricing by a fund may cause the net asset value of its shares to differ significantly from the net asset value that would be calculated
without regard to such considerations.
As
described above, the Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of its 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. |
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Villere
Funds
NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
February
28, 2026 (Unaudited)(Continued)
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 measurements fall in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest
level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The
following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of February 28, 2026. See the Schedules of Investments
for industry breakouts.

|
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 Fund’s 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 |

Funds
NOTES

loss
from investments. The Fund’s 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 fiscal 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, each Fund intends to declare dividends in each
calendar year of at least 98.0% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains
(earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts, if any, from prior years.
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. At the most recent fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, the Funds had the following capital loss carryovers, which do
not expire and retain their original character.

As
of February 28, 2026, 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 major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. As of February 28, 2026, 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.
|
Securities
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. Interest
income and securities lending income are recorded on an accrual basis. Other non-cash dividends are recognized as investment income at
the fair value of the property received. 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. |
|
E.
|
Distributions
to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains on securities for each Fund normally
are declared and paid on an annual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. |
|
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 each Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. Each Fund’s 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 each Fund is equal to each Fund’s NAV per
share. The Equity |

Funds
NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
February

Fund
charges a 2.00% redemption fee on shares held less than 60 calendar days. This fee is deducted from the redemption proceeds otherwise
payable to the shareholder. The Equity Fund retains the fee charged as paid-in capital and such fees become part of the Fund’s daily
NAV calculation.
|
H.
|
Guarantees
and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, each Fund enters into contracts with service providers that contain general
indemnification clauses. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that
may be made against each Fund 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 Funds have adopted a Board approved liquidity risk management program that
requires, among other things, that the Funds limit their illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of net assets. An illiquid
investment is any investment that the Funds reasonably expect cannot 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 Pronouncements. Management has evaluated the impact of adopting ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements
to Reportable Segment Disclosures with respect to the financial statements and disclosures and determined there is no material impact
for the Funds. The Funds operate as a single segment entity. The Funds income, expenses, assets, and performance are regularly monitored
and assessed by a Partner & Portfolio Manager at St. Denis J. Villere & Co., LLC who serves as the chief operating decision maker,
using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights. |
In
December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Updated 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”), Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements
to Income Tax Disclosures, which amends quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosure requirements in order to increase disclosure
consistency, bifurcate income tax information by jurisdiction and remove information that is no longer beneficial. ASU 2023-09 is effective
for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. Fund Management has determined that additional
disclosures were not necessary due to being deemed immaterial.
|
K.
|
Subsequent
Events. In preparing these financial statements, the Funds 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”)
for each Fund. Under each Advisory Agreement, the Adviser furnishes all investment advice, office space, and certain administrative services,
and provides most of the personnel needed by the Funds. As compensation for its services, the Adviser is entitled to receive a monthly
fee at the annual rate of 0.75% for the Balanced Fund and Equity Fund based upon the average daily net assets of each Fund. For the six
months ended February 28, 2026, the advisory fees incurred by the Funds 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 the annual ratio of expenses (“Expense Caps”) to 0.79% and 1.05% of each Fund’s
average daily net assets for the Balanced Fund and Equity Fund, respectively. Prior to September 1, 2025, the Balanced Fund’s operating

NOTE
4 – SECURITIES LENDING
Each
Fund may lend up to 33 1/3% of its total asset value 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
Funds receive 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 Funds have the right under the terms of the securities lending agreement to recall the securities
from the borrower on demand.
The
Funds’ loaned securities are collateralized by cash equivalents. The cash collateral is invested by U.S. BankN.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 Funds 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 Funds are indemnified from this risk by contract with the securities lending agent.

The
Funds receive cash as collateral in return for securities lent as part of the securities lending program. The collateral is invested in
the Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio (a 3(c)7 private fund that is managed according to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act). The Schedules
of Investments for the Funds include the particular cash collateral holding as of February 28, 2026. The remaining contractual maturity
of all securities lending transactions is overnight and continuous.
The
net fee and interest income earned by the Funds on investments of cash collateral received from borrowers for the securities loaned to
them are reflected in the Statements of Operations.
Due
to the absence of a master netting agreement related to the Funds’ participation in securities lending, no additional offsetting
disclosures have been made on behalf of the Funds for the total borrowings listed above.
