MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS
To My Fellow Shareholders of Virtus Mutual Funds:
| | |
| | I am pleased to present the semiannual report for your fund for the six-month period ended September 30, 2017, and would like to extend a special welcome to former RidgeWorth Funds shareholders who officially became Virtus Funds shareholders in September. During the past six months, the Federal Reserve (“the Fed”) raised interest rates for the third time since last December, and in October 2017, began the process of unwinding the balance sheet debt it had accumulated since 2008 in its efforts to stimulate the economy – a clear signal that it believes the U.S. is back on a growth path. Global economic growth also strengthened, with other major central banks |
preparing to taper their own stimulus policies. Rounding out the optimistic picture, corporate earnings were generally strong during the period. Against this positive backdrop, equity markets have surged. U.S. large- and small-cap stocks returned 7.71% and 8.27%, as measured by the performance of the S&P 500® Index and Russell 2000® Index, respectively. Within international equities, emerging markets outperformed their developed peers, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net) up 14.66%, compared with the MSCI EAFE® Index (net), which returned 11.86%. Demand for U.S. Treasuries also remained strong, driven by foreign investors who favored their yield advantage and credit quality over many foreign government bonds. On September 30, 2017, the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yielded 2.33%, compared with 2.31% six months earlier. The broader U.S. fixed income market, as represented by the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which tracks Treasuries and other investment-grade debt securities, increased 2.31% for the six months, while non-investment grade bonds gained 4.19%, as measured by the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index. Market uncertainty is an ever-present reminder of the importance of portfolio diversification, including exposure to traditional and alternative asset classes. While diversification cannot guarantee a profit or prevent a loss, owning a variety of asset classes may cushion your portfolio against inevitable market fluctuations. Your financial advisor can help you ensure that your portfolio is adequately diversified across asset classes and investment strategies, with the full array of Virtus Funds now available through your fund exchange privileges. These include distinctive equity, fixed income, international, and asset allocation funds from Virtus affiliates and select subadvisers. We invite you to learn more about our growing family of managers and funds at Virtus.com. On behalf of our investment affiliates, thank you for entrusting the Virtus Funds with your assets. Should you have questions about your account or require assistance, please visit Virtus.com, or call our customer service team at 1-800-243-1574. We appreciate your business and remain committed to your long-term financial success. Sincerely, George R. Aylward President, Virtus Mutual Funds October 2017 |

When-issued and Forward Commitments (Delayed Delivery)
Securities purchased on a when-issued or forward commitment basis are also known as delayed delivery transactions. Delayed delivery transactions involve a commitment by a Fund to purchase or sell a security at a future date, ordinarily up to 90 days later.

The Seix Limited Duration Fund and Seix Ultra-Short Bond Fund offer Class I shares only. The Seix Georgia Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Seix High Grade Municipal Bond Fund, Seix Investment Grade Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Seix North Carolina Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Seix Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund and Seix Virginia Intermediate Bond Fund offer Class I shares and Class A shares. The Seix U.S. Government Securities Ultra-Short Bond Fund offers Class I shares and Class R6 shares. The Seix Core Bond Fund, Seix High Income Fund, Seix High Yield Fund and Seix Total Return Bond Fund offer Class I shares, Class A shares, Class R shares and Class R6 shares. The Seix Floating Rate High Income Fund offers Class I shares, Class A shares, Class C shares and Class R6 shares. The remaining Funds offer Class I shares, Class A shares and Class C shares.
Class A shares of the Funds are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 3.75% with some exceptions. Generally, Class A shares are not subject to any charges by the Funds when redeemed; however, a 0.50% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) may be imposed on certain redemptions made within a certain period following purchases on which a finder’s fee has been paid. The period for which the CDSC applies for the Funds is 12 months for the Seix Short-Term Bond Fund, Seix Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund and Seix U.S. Mortgage Fund, and 18 months for all other funds. The CDSC period begins on the last day of the month preceding the month in which the purchase was made.
Class C shares are generally sold with a 1% CDSC, applicable if redeemed within one year of purchase. Class I shares, Class R shares, and Class R6 shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or CDSC.
Class R6 shares are available only to the following investors without a minimum initial investment or minimum additional purchases: certain employer-sponsored retirement plans, including Section 401(k), 403(b) and 457, profit-sharing, money purchase pension and defined benefit plans and nonqualified deferred compensation plans, in each case provided that plan level or omnibus accounts are held on the books of the fund. Other institutional investors may be permitted to purchase Class R6 shares subject to the fund’s determination of eligibility and may be subject to a minimum initial investment requirement. Class R6 shares do not carry sales commissions or pay Rule 12b-1 fees. No compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments are paid to brokers or other entities from Fund assets or the Fund’s distributor’s or an affiliate’s resources on sales of or investments in Class R6 shares.
Virtus Mutual Funds may impose an annual fee on accounts having balances of less than $2,500. The small account fee may be waived in certain circumstances, as disclosed in the prospectuses and/or statements of additional information. The fees collected will be used to offset certain expenses of the Funds. These fees are reflected as “Low Balance Account Fees” in each Fund’s Statements of Operations for the period, as applicable.
Each Class of shares has identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except that each Class bears different distribution and/or service fees under a Rule 12b-1 and/or shareholder service plan (“12b-1 Plan”) approved by the Board and has exclusive voting rights with respect to such plans. Class I shares and Class R6 shares are not subject to a 12b-1 Plan. Income and other expenses as well as realized and unrealized gains and losses of each Fund are borne pro-rata by the holders of each Class of shares.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be significant.
(a) Investment Valuation — Security valuation procedures for each Fund, which include nightly price variance as well as back-testing items such as bi-weekly unchanged price, monthly secondary source and transaction analysis, have been approved by the Board. All internally fair valued securities are approved by a valuation committee appointed by the Board (the “Valuation Committee”). The Valuation Committee is comprised of certain members of management as identified to the Board and convenes independently from portfolio management. All internally fair valued securities, referred to below, are updated daily and reviewed in detail by the Valuation Committee monthly unless changes occur within the period. The Valuation Committee reviews the validity of the model inputs and any changes to the model. Fair valuations are reviewed quarterly by the Board.
Each Fund utilizes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The Funds’ policy is to recognize transfers between levels at the end of the reporting period.
| • Level 1 – | quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (security types generally include listed equities). |
| • Level 2 – | prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). |
95
VIRTUS ASSET TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 (Unaudited)
| • Level 3 – | prices determined using significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Committee’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
A description of the valuation techniques applied to a Fund’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows:
Equity securities are valued at the official closing price (typically last sale) on the exchange on which the securities are primarily traded or, if no closing price is available, at the last bid price and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Restricted equity securities and private placements that are not widely traded, are illiquid, or are internally fair valued by the Valuation Committee, are generally categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Certain non-U.S. securities may be fair valued in cases where closing prices are not readily available or are deemed not reflective of readily available market prices. For example, significant events (such as movement in the U.S. securities market, or other regional and local developments) may occur between the time that non-U.S. markets close (where the security is principally traded) and the time that a Fund calculates its net asset value (“NAV”) (at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), generally 4 p.m. Eastern time) that may impact the value of securities traded in these non-U.S. markets. In such cases the Fund fair values non-U.S. securities using an independent pricing service which considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the non-U.S. security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as ADRs, financial futures, ETFs, and certain indexes, as well as prices for similar securities. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Because the frequency of significant events is not predictable, fair valuation of certain non-U.S. common stocks may occur on a frequent basis.
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated quotations received from independent pricing services or from dealers who make markets in such securities. For most bond types, the pricing service utilizes matrix pricing that considers one or more of the following factors: yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, current cash flows, type, and current day trade information, as well as dealer-supplied prices. These valuations are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Structured debt instruments such as mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities may also incorporate collateral analysis and utilize cash flow models for valuation and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Pricing services do not provide pricing for all securities and therefore indicative bids from dealers are utilized which are based on pricing models used by market makers in the security and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Debt securities that are not widely traded, are illiquid, or are internally fair valued by the Valuation Committee, are generally categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Listed derivatives, such as options, that are actively traded are valued based on quoted prices from the exchange and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Over-the-counter derivative contracts, which include forward currency contracts and equity-linked instruments, do not require material subjectivity as pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at NAV. Investments in closed-end funds are valued as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE each business day. Both are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Funds’ assets and liabilities by each major security type as of September 30, 2017:

| (a) | “Transfers into and/or from” represent the ending value as of September 30, 2017, for any investment security where a change in the pricing level occurred from the beginning to the end of the period. |
| (b) | Includes paydown on securities. |
None of the securities in this table are internally fair valued. The Funds’ investments that are categorized as Level 3 were valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. Such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information could result in a significantly lower or higher value of Level 3 investments.
(b) Security Transactions and Investment Income – Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from sales of securities are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as a Fund is notified. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Each Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts using the effective interest method. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
(c) Distributions to Shareholders – Distributions are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date. Each Fund’s income distributions are declared and recorded daily and distributed monthly. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from U.S. GAAP.
(d) Expenses and Share Class Accounting – Expenses incurred together by a Fund and other affiliated mutual funds are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each such fund, except where allocation of direct expense to each fund or an alternative allocation method can be more appropriately used.
In addition to the net annual operating expenses that a Fund bears directly, the shareholders of a Fund indirectly bear the pro rata expenses of any underlying mutual funds in which the Fund invests.

VIRTUS ASSET TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 (Unaudited)
(e) Securities Traded on a To-Be-Announced Basis – Certain Funds may trade securities on a to-be-announced (“TBA”) basis. In a TBA transaction, a Fund commits to purchasing or selling securities which have not yet been issued by the issuer and for which specific information, such as the face amount, maturity date and underlying pool of investments in U.S. government agency mortgage pass-through securities, is not announced. Securities purchased on a TBA basis are not settled until they are delivered to the Fund. Beginning on the date a Fund enters into a TBA transaction, cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid high-grade debt obligations are segregated in an amount equal in value to the purchase price of the TBA security. These securities are subject to market fluctuations and their current value is determined in the same manner as for other securities.
(f) When-issued Purchases and Forward Commitments (Delayed Delivery) – Certain Funds may engage in when-issued or forward commitment transactions. Transactions on a when-issued or forward commitment basis are also known as delayed delivery transactions. Delayed delivery transactions involve a commitment by a Fund to purchase or sell a security at a future date (ordinarily up to 90 days later). When-issued or forward commitments enable a Fund to lock in what is believed to be an attractive price or yield on a particular security for a period of time, regardless of future changes in interest rates. Each Fund records when-issued and delayed delivery securities on the trade date. Each Fund maintains collateral for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis begin earning interest on the settlement date.
(g) Bank Loans – Certain Funds may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owed by a corporate, governmental, or other borrower to lenders or lending syndicates. Loan agreements are generally non-investment grade, and often involve borrowers that are highly leveraged. A Fund may invest in obligations of borrowers who are in bankruptcy proceedings. Loan agreements are typically senior in the corporate capital structure of the borrower. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. A Fund’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties.
When investing in loan participations, a Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan participation and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. A Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, a Fund may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When a Fund purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan.
A Fund may invest in multiple series or tranches of a loan, which may have varying terms and carry different associated risks. Loan agreements may involve foreign borrowers and investments may be denominated in foreign currencies. Direct indebtedness of emerging countries involves a risk that the government entities responsible for the repayment of the debt may be unable, or unwilling, to pay the principal and interest when due.
The loan agreements have floating rate loan interests which generally pay interest at rates that are periodically determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. The base lending rates are generally LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate), the prime rate offered by one or more U.S. banks or the certificate of deposit rate. When a loan agreement is purchased a Fund may pay an assignment fee. On an ongoing basis, a Fund may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit portion of a loan agreement. Prepayment penalty fees are received upon the prepayment of a loan agreement by a borrower. Prepayment penalty, facility, commitment, consent and amendment fees are recorded to income as earned or paid.
(h) Foreign Currency Translation – Non-U.S. investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the foreign currency exchange rate effective at the end of the reporting period. Cost of investments is translated at the currency exchange rate effective at the trade date. The gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates between the trade and settlement date of a portfolio transaction is treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. Likewise, the gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates between the date income is accrued and the date it is paid is treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
(i) Securities Lending – During the period, certain Funds were permitted to loan securities to qualified brokers through an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), as a third party lending agent. Under the terms of agreement, a Fund doing so was required to maintain collateral with a market value not less than 100% of the market value of loaned securities. Collateral was adjusted daily in connection with changes in the market value of securities on loan. Collateral may have consisted of cash and securities issued by the U.S. Government or its agencies. Cash collateral was invested in a short-term money market fund. Dividends earned on the collateral and premiums paid by the broker were recorded as income by a Fund net of fees and rebates charged by State Street for its services as securities lending agent and in connection with this securities lending program. Effective August 10, 2017, securities lending was suspended for the Funds.

(j) Restricted Securities – Certain Funds’ investments are restricted as to resale. All of these restricted securities have been deemed liquid by the Funds’ Investment Adviser based upon procedures approved by the Board, unless stated otherwise in the Funds’ Schedules of Portfolio Investments. As of September 30, 2017, the Funds did not have any restricted securities.
(k) Credit and Market Risk – Certain Funds’ investments in securities that are collateralized by residential real estate mortgages are subject to certain credit and liquidity risks. When market conditions result in an increase in default rates of the underlying mortgages and the foreclosure values of underlying real estate properties are materially below the outstanding amount of these underlying mortgages, collection of the full amount of accrued
101

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 (Unaudited)
interest and principal on these investments may be doubtful. Such market conditions may significantly impair the value and liquidity of these investments and may result in a lack of correlation between their credit ratings and values.
(l) Foreign Investments – Certain Funds’ investments in foreign securities may involve risks not present in domestic investments. Since securities may be denominated in foreign currencies, may require settlement in foreign currencies or pay interest or dividends in foreign currencies, changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the Fund. Foreign investments may also subject the Fund to foreign government exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic developments, all of which affect the market and/or credit risk of the investments.
For securities subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.
(m) Other Risks – Certain Funds invest in high yield corporate, government, and other debt instruments of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers. High yield securities involve greater risk of default or downgrade and are more volatile than investment grade securities. A Fund’s concentration of investments in securities of issuers located in a specific region or state, subjects that Fund to the economic and government policies of the region or state, and may increase risk versus that of a fund whose investments are more diversified. Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for additional risks that may be associated with the Funds.
(n) Federal and Other Taxes – Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. It is the intention of each Fund to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.
Certain Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. Each Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable based upon current interpretations of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.
Management of the Funds has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. As of September 30, 2017, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations are from the year 2014 forward (with limited exceptions).
(o) Reclassification – GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per share.
(p) Line of Credit – On September 22, 2017, the Funds terminated a committed unsecured revolving line of credit agreement (“LOC”) with a syndicate of banks which included State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”) and Royal Bank of Canada (“RBC”) in the aggregate amount of $200,000,000. The proceeds were permitted to be used only to (1) temporarily finance the purchase and sale of securities; or (2) finance the redemption of shares of the Funds. The Funds paid a commitment fee on a pro rata basis to State Street Bank and RBC, in the amount of 0.17% per annum on the daily unused portion of the LOC. Borrowings under the LOC accrued interest at the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate, or (b) the one-month London Interbank Overnight Rate (LIBOR) Rate, plus 1.25% per annum. Generally, repayments were required to be made within 60 days of the borrowings. Commitment fees and interest expense paid to State Street Bank and RBC pursuant to this agreement are reflected on the Statements of Operations as a component of Other Fees.
The following Funds had an outstanding loan during the period. The borrowings were valued at cost, which approximates fair value.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Interest Incurred on Borrowing | | | Average Dollar Amount of Borrowing | | | Weighted Average Interest Rate on Borrowing | | | Days Loan was Open | |
Seix High Income Fund | | $ | 94 | | | $ | 1,372,500 | | | | 2.48 | % | | | 1 | |
Seix High Yield Fund | | | 110 | | | | 1,601,584 | | | | 2.46 | | | | 1 | |
Seix Limited Duration Fund | | | 64 | | | | 249,242 | | | | 2.30 | | | | 4 | |
On September 18, 2017, the Funds and other affiliated funds (with the exception of Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund and Newfleet Credit Opportunities Fund) entered into a $250,000,000 unsecured line of credit of which $100,000,000 is available for utilization by the Virtus Seix Floating Rate Fund and the remaining $150,000,000 is available for utilization by the remaining Funds and other affiliated funds. This line of credit is with a commercial bank and allows the Funds to borrow cash from the bank to manage large unexpected redemptions and trade fails, up to a limit of one-third or one-fifth of each Fund’s total net assets in accordance with the terms of the agreement. This line of credit has a term of 364 days. Interest is charged at the higher of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the Federal Funds rate plus an additional percentage rate on the amount borrowed. Commitment fees are charged on the undrawn balance. The Funds and other affiliated funds that are parties are individually, and not jointly, liable for their particular advances, if any, under the line of credit. The lending bank has the ability to require repayment of outstanding borrowings under this line of credit upon certain circumstances such as an event of default.
3. | Derivative Financial Instruments |
Disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities are intended to enable investors to understand how and why a Fund uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect a Fund’s results of operations and financial position. Summarized below are such disclosures and accounting policies for each specific type of derivative instrument used by certain Funds.
(a) Futures Contracts – A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to purchase (long) or sell (short) a security at a set price for delivery on a future date. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or securities equal to the “initial margin” requirements of the futures exchange on which the contract is traded. Pursuant to the contract, a Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are
102

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 (Unaudited)
recorded by a Fund for financial statement purposes on a daily basis as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the contract expires or is closed, gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed is realized. This is presented in the Statement of Operations as net realized gain (loss) on futures contracts.
During the fiscal period, Seix U.S Government Securities and Ultra-Short Fund and Seix Ultra-Short Bond Fund utilized futures to optimize performance by gaining exposure to broad markets or to hedge the risk of securities within the portfolios. The potential risks to each such Fund are that 1) the use of futures may result in larger losses or smaller gains than the use of more traditional investments, 2) the prices of futures and the price movements of the securities that the future is intended to simulate may not correlate well, 3) each Fund’s success in using futures will be dependent upon the subadviser’s ability to correctly predict such price movements, 4) liquidity of futures can be adversely affected by market factors, and the prices of such securities may move in unexpected ways, and 5) if the Fund cannot close out a futures position, it may be compelled to continue to make daily cash payments to the broker to meet margin requirements, thus increasing transaction costs. Futures contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
(b) Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts – A forward foreign currency exchange contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set exchange rate on a future date. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts, when used by a Fund, help to manage the overall exposure to the currencies in which some of the investments held by the Fund are denominated. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Fund as an unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk that the value of a forward foreign currency exchange contract changes unfavorably due to movements in the value of the referenced foreign currencies. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in U.S. dollars without the delivery of foreign currency.
During the fiscal period, Seix Total Return Bond Fund entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts as an economic hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio instruments or to obtain exposure to, or hedge exposure away from, foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk). Forward foreign currency contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
(c) Swaps – Certain Funds enter into swap agreements, in which the Fund and a counterparty agree either to make periodic net payments on a specified notional amount or a net payment upon termination. Swap agreements are negotiated in the OTC market and may be entered into as a bilateral contract (“OTC swaps”) or centrally cleared (“centrally cleared swaps”). The value of the swap is reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as “Swaps at value”. Swaps are marked-to-market daily and changes in value are recorded as “Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swaps” in the Statements of Operations.
Any upfront premiums paid are recorded as assets and any upfront fees received are recorded as liabilities and are shown under “Swaps at value” in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and amortized over the term of the swap. When a swap is terminated, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Fund’s basis in the contract, if any. Generally, the basis of the contracts is the unamortized premium received or paid. Cash settlements between the Fund and the counterparty are recognized as “Net realized gain (loss) on swaps” in the Statements of Operations. Swap contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
In a centrally cleared swap, immediately following execution of the swap agreement, the swap agreement is submitted to a central counterparty (the “CCP”) and the Fund’s counterparty on the swap agreement becomes the CCP. The Fund is required to interface with the CCP through a clearing broker. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, a Fund is required to deposit initial margin with the clearing broker in the form of cash or securities in an amount that varies depending on the size and risk profile of the particular swap.
Securities deposited as margin are designated on the Schedules of Investments and cash deposited is recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as “Cash pledged as collateral for swaps”.
Swap transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of interest rate, credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of the contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates and/or market values associated with these transactions.
Credit default swaps – A Fund may either buy or sell (write) credit default swaps on single-name issuers (corporate or sovereign), a combination or basket of single-name issuers or traded indexes. Credit default swaps on single-name issuers are agreements in which the buyer pays fixed periodic payments to the seller in consideration for a guarantee from the protection seller to make specific payment should a negative credit event take place with respect to the referenced entity (e.g., bankruptcy, failure to pay, obligation accelerators, repudiation, moratorium or restructuring). Credit default swaps on a combination or basket of single-name issuers are agreements in which the buyer pays fixed periodic payments to the seller in consideration for a guarantee from the protection seller to make specific payment should a negative credit event take place with respect to any of the referenced entities (e.g., bankruptcy, failure to pay, obligation accelerators, repudiation, moratorium or restructuring). Credit default swaps on traded indexes are agreements in which the buyer pays fixed periodic payments to the seller in consideration for a guarantee from the seller to make a specific payment should a write-down, principal or interest shortfall or default of all or individual underlying securities included in the index occurs. As a buyer, if an underlying credit event occurs, the Fund will either receive from the seller an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced security or underlying securities comprising the index or receive a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising the index. As a seller (writer), if an underlying credit event occurs, the Fund will either pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced security or underlying securities comprising the index or pay a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising the index. The Funds may enter into credit default swaps to manage their exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market, to reduce their risk exposure to defaults of corporate and/or sovereign issuers or to create exposure to corporate and/or sovereign issuers to which they are not otherwise exposed (credit risk).

SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 (Unaudited)
During the fiscal period, Seix Total Return Bond Fund utilized credit index swaps to gain exposure to a credit or asset-backed index.
Interest rate swaps – Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating, for another party’s stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating, on the same notional amount for a specified period of time.
Certain Funds may enter into interest rate swaps to gain or reduce exposure to interest rates or to manage duration, the yield curve or interest rate risk by economically hedging the value of the fixed rate bonds which may decrease when interest rates rise (interest rate risk).
During the fiscal period, Seix Total Return Bond Fund utilized interest rate swaps to gain exposure to interest rates or to hedge interest rate risk within its portfolio.

(d) Derivative Risks – A derivative contract may suffer a mark-to-market loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. Losses can also occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
A Fund’s risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on OTC derivatives is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized gain netted against any collateral held by such Fund. For OTC purchased options, each Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount of the premiums paid plus the positive change in market values net of any collateral held by such Fund should the counterparty fail to perform under the contracts. Options written by a Fund do not typically give rise to counterparty credit risk, as options written generally obligate the Fund, and not the counterparty to perform.
With exchange traded purchased options and futures and centrally cleared swaps generally speaking, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Fund since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, a Fund does not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency) of the clearing broker or clearinghouse. Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange traded futures and centrally cleared swaps with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a clearing broker’s customer accounts. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be allocated on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Fund.
In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help a Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, each Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivative contract counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs certain OTC derivatives and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, a Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events. In addition, certain ISDA Master Agreements allow counterparties to OTC derivatives to terminate derivative contracts prior to maturity in the event a Fund’s net assets decline by a stated percentage or the Fund fails to meet the terms of its ISDA Master Agreements, which would cause the Fund to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty.
(e) Counterparty Risk and Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features of Derivative Instruments – Certain Funds may invest in certain securities or engage in other transactions where the Funds are exposed to counterparty credit risk in addition to broader market risks. The Funds may invest in securities of issuers, which may also be considered counterparties as trading partners in other transactions. This may increase the risk of loss in the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty or if the counterparty otherwise fails to meet its contractual obligations. While the Funds’ subadviser
105
VIRTUS ASSET TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 (Unaudited)
attempts to mitigate counterparty risk, market events and changes in overall economic conditions may impact the assessment of such counterparty risk by the subadviser. In addition, declines in the values of underlying collateral received may expose the Funds to increased risk of loss.
(f) Collateral Requirements and Master Netting Agreements (“MNA”) – For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by the Funds and the counterparty.
Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged as collateral and cash received as collateral, respectively. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments. Typically, the Funds and counterparties are not permitted to sell, re-pledge or use the collateral they receive. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. The Funds attempt to mitigate counterparty risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that they believe have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.
For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
At September 30, 2017, the Funds’ derivative assets and liabilities (by type) are as follows:

4. | Investment Adviser and Other Service Providers |
Investment Adviser – Virtus Fund Advisers, LLC (formerly, RidgeWorth Capital Management LLC) (“Investment Adviser”), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Virtus Investment Partners, Inc. (“Virtus”), serves as the investment adviser to the Funds. The Trust and the Investment Adviser have entered into an investment advisory agreement (“Advisory Agreement”). Seix Investment Advisors LLC (“subadviser”), the Funds’ subadviser, is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Virtus. The Investment Adviser pays the Subadviser out of the investment advisory fees it receives from the Funds.
Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Funds are charged annual advisory fees, which are computed daily and paid monthly based upon average daily net assets. Breakpoints are used in computing the overall annual advisory fee. The maximum annual advisory fee is charged on the average daily net assets of each Fund up to $500 million. A discount of 5% applies on the next $500 million, a discount of 10% applies on the next $4 billion and a discount of 15% applies on amounts over $5 billion. Fee rates for the period ended September 30, 2017 were as follows:

Under the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Investment Adviser may retain the difference between the contractual expense limitation identified above and the actual total expenses to recapture any of its prior contractual waivers or reimbursements at a date not to exceed three years from the date of such waivers or reimbursements. Such repayments shall be made monthly, but only to the extent that such repayments would not cause the annualized total expense ratio to exceed, if lower, the contractual expense limitation in place at the time of the waiver or reimbursement.
Under certain circumstances, the Investment Adviser may choose to voluntarily waive fees. In the event that the Investment Adviser voluntarily waives any fees, these waived fees are not subject to recoupment by the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser has voluntarily undertaken to reduce and/or subsidize certain expenses of the Seix Limited Duration Fund, Seix Short-Term Bond Fund and Seix U.S. Mortgage Fund to the extent necessary to maintain a minimum annualized yield of 0.0% for each of these Funds’ share classes. This voluntary expense reduction and/or expense subsidy may be modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice and is not subject to recoupment. There can be no assurance that this fee reduction will be sufficient to avoid any loss. During the period ended September 30, 2017, Seix Short-Term Bond Fund Class C shares had voluntary reimbursements in the amount of $242.

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, and in separate agreements between each Trustee and the Trust, its Trustees and officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust and its funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide a variety of indemnifications to other parties. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and that have not occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these arrangements and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
Certain Funds may invest a high percentage of their assets in specific sectors of the market in the pursuit of their investment objectives.

The Funds utilize the provisions of the federal income tax laws that provide for the carryforward of capital losses from prior years, offsetting such losses against any future realized capital gains. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”), net capital losses recognized in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 (“post-enactment”), may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term and/or long-term losses. Previously, net capital losses were carried forward for eight years and treated as short-term losses (“pre-enactment”). The Act requires that post-enactment net capital losses be used before pre-enactment net capital losses.
As of March 31, 2017, the post-enactment accumulated short-term and long-term capital loss carryforwards were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

11. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In October 2016, the SEC released its Final Rule on Investment Company Reporting Modernization (the “Rule”). The Rule contains amendments to Regulation S-X which impact financial statement presentation, particularly the presentation of derivative investments. The financial statements presented are in compliance with the most recent Regulations S-X amendments.
12. | Regulatory Matters and Litigation |
From time to time, the Trust, the Investment Adviser and/or Subadviser and/or their affiliates may be involved in litigation and arbitration as well as examinations and investigations by various regulatory bodies, including the SEC, involving compliance with, among other things, securities laws, client investment guidelines, laws governing the activities of broker-dealers and other laws and regulations affecting their products and other activities. At this time, the Investment Adviser believes that the outcomes of such matters are not likely, either individually or in the aggregate, to be material to these financial statements.
Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued. Management has determined, except as set forth below, that there are no material events that would require disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements through this date.
At a meeting held on September 20, 2017, the Board of Trustees approved a change to the Trust’s fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31. This change took effect on October 1, 2017.

BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Virtus Asset Trust (the “Trust”) is responsible for determining whether to approve the establishment and continuation of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between the Funds and Virtus Fund Advisers, LLC (“VFA”) and the subadvisory agreement (the “Subadvisory Agreement” and together with the Advisory Agreement, the “Agreements”) among the Funds, VFA and Seix Investment Advisors LLC (“Seix” or the “Subadviser”). At a special telephonic meeting held on February 9, 2017, and at an in-person meeting held March 1-2, 2017, the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (such Act, the “1940 Act” and such Trustees, the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the establishment of the Agreements, as further discussed below.
In connection with the approval of the Agreements, the Board requested and evaluated information provided by VFA and the Subadviser which, in the Board’s view, constituted information necessary for the Board to form a judgment as to whether approval of each of the Agreements would be in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders.
The Board was separately advised by independent legal counsel throughout the process. For each Agreement, the Board considered all the criteria separately with respect to the Funds and their shareholders. In their deliberations, the Board considered various factors, including those discussed below, none of which were controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors.
In considering whether to approve the Agreements with respect to each Fund, the Board reviewed and analyzed the factors it deemed relevant, including: (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by VFA and the Subadviser; (2) information regarding performance expectations as well as historical performance of funds with which the Funds were expected to merge and like which the Funds were expected to be managed; (3) the level and method of computing each Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees, and comparisons of each Fund’s proposed advisory fee rates with those of a group of other funds with similar investment objective(s); (4) the projected profitability of VFA and its affiliates under the Advisory Agreement; (5) any “fall-out” benefits to VFA, the Subadviser and their affiliates (i.e., ancillary benefits realized by VFA, the Subadviser or their affiliates from VFA’s or the Subadviser’s relationship with the Funds); (6) the anticipated effect of growth in size on each Fund’s performance and expenses; (7) possible conflicts of interest; and (8) the terms of the Agreements.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Trustees received in advance of the Meetings information provided by VFA and the Subadviser, including completed questionnaires concerning a number of topics, including such company’s investment philosophy, resources, operations and compliance structure. The Trustees also received a presentation by VFA’s senior management personnel, during which among other items, VFA’s history, investment process, investment strategies, personnel, compliance procedures and the firm’s overall performance were reviewed and discussed. The Trustees noted that the Funds would be managed using a “manager of managers” structure that generally involves the use of one or more subadvisers to manage some or all of a Fund’s portfolio. Under this structure, VFA is responsible for the oversight of the Funds’ investment programs and day-to-day operations and for evaluating and selecting subadvisers on an ongoing basis and making any recommendations to the Board regarding hiring, retaining or replacing subadvisers. In considering the Advisory Agreement with VFA, the Board considered VFA’s process for supervising and managing the Funds’ subadviser, including (a) VFA’s ability to select and monitor the subadviser; (b) VFA’s ability to provide the services necessary to monitor the subadviser’s compliance with the Funds’ respective investment objectives, policies and restrictions as well as provide other oversight activities; and (c) VFA’s ability and willingness to identify instances in which a subadviser should be replaced and to carry out the required changes. The Trustees also considered: (a) the experience and capability of VFA’s management and other personnel; (b) the financial condition of VFA, and whether it had the financial wherewithal to provide a high level and quality of services to the Funds; (c) the quality of VFA’s own regulatory and legal compliance policies, procedures and systems; (d) the nature, extent and quality of administrative, transfer agency and other services expected to be provided by VFA and its affiliates to the Funds; (e) VFA’s expected supervision of the Funds’ other service providers; and (f) VFA’s risk management processes. It was noted that affiliates of VFA were expected to serve as administrator, transfer agent and distributor to the Funds. The Board also took into account its knowledge of VFA’s management and the quality of the performance of their duties on behalf of an affiliated manager with which the Board was familiar through Board meetings, discussions and reports, as well as information from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer regarding the Funds’ compliance policies and procedures proposed to be established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act.
With respect to the services to be provided by the Subadviser, the Board considered information provided to the Board by the Subadviser, including the Subadviser’s Form ADV, as well as a presentation provided by portfolio management personnel of the Subadviser. With respect to the Subadvisory Agreement, the Board noted that the Subadviser would provide portfolio management, compliance with each respective Fund’s investment policies and procedures, compliance with applicable securities laws and assurances thereof. The Board also noted that VFA’s and the Subadviser’s management of the Funds is subject to the oversight of the Board and must be carried out in accordance with the investment objective(s), policies and restrictions set forth in the Funds’ prospectuses and statement of additional information. In considering approval of the Subadvisory Agreement, the Board also considered the Subadviser’s investment management process, including (a) the experience and capability of the Subadviser’s management and other personnel committed by the Subadviser to the Funds; (b) the financial condition of the Subadviser; (c) the quality of the Subadviser’s regulatory and legal compliance policies, procedures and systems; and (d) the Subadviser’s brokerage and trading practices, including with respect to best execution and soft dollars. The Board also

BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES (Continued)
took into account the Subadviser’s risk assessment and monitoring process. The Board noted the Subadviser’s regulatory history, including whether it was currently involved in any regulatory actions or investigations as well as material litigation, and any settlements and amelioratory actions undertaken, as appropriate.
After considering all of the information provided to them, the Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be provided by VFA and the Subadviser were satisfactory and that there was a reasonable basis on which to conclude that each would provide a high quality of investment services to the Funds.
Investment Performance
Because the Funds had not commenced operations, the Board could not evaluate prior investment performance for the Funds. However, the Board reviewed and was satisfied with certain information regarding expected performance that was based upon the Funds’ proposed investment strategies, including performance of funds having the same investment strategies that were managed by VFA and the Subadviser and with which the Funds were expected to merge.
Management Fees and Total Expenses
The Board considered the fees proposed to be charged to the Funds for advisory services as well as the expected total expense levels of each Fund. Among other data provided, the Board noted that the proposed management fee and total expenses for each Fund were within the range of other funds deemed to be comparable to the Funds by management. The Board noted that each Fund was expected to have fee waivers and/or expense caps in place to limit the total expenses incurred by each Fund and its shareholders. The Board also noted that the subadvisory fees would be paid by VFA out of its management fees rather than paid separately by the Funds. In this regard, the Board took into account management’s discussion with respect to the advisory/subadvisory fee structure, including the amount of the advisory fee expected to be retained by VFA after payment of the subadvisory fee. The Board also took into account the expected size of each of the Funds and the impact on expenses.
The Board concluded that the proposed advisory and subadvisory fees for the Funds were fair and reasonable in light of the usual and customary charges made for services of the same nature and quality and the other factors considered.
Projected Profitability
The Board also considered certain information relating to projected profitability that had been provided by VFA. In this regard, the Board considered information regarding the projected profitability of VFA for its management of the Funds, as well as the projected profitability of its affiliates for managing and providing other services to the Funds, such as distribution, transfer agency and administrative services provided to the Funds by a VFA affiliate. In addition to the fees paid to VFA and its affiliates, the Board considered any other benefits derived by VFA or its affiliates from their relationship with the Funds. The Board concluded that the projected profitability to VFA and its affiliates from the Funds was reasonable in light of the quality of the services to be rendered to the Funds by VFA and its affiliates.
In considering the projected profitability to the Subadviser in connection with its relationship to the Funds, the Board noted that the fees under the Subadvisory Agreement would be paid by VFA out of the fees that VFA receives under the Advisory Agreement, so that Fund shareholders would not be directly impacted by those fees. In considering the reasonableness of the fees payable by VFA to the Subadviser, the Board noted that, because the Subadviser is an affiliate of VFA, such profitability might be directly or indirectly shared by VFA. For each of the above reasons, the Board concluded that the projected profitability to the Subadviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Funds was not a material factor in approval of the Subadvisory Agreement.
Economies of Scale
The Board received and discussed information concerning whether VFA should be expected to realize economies of scale as the Funds’ assets grow. The Board noted that the proposed management fee for each Fund included breakpoints based on assets under management and that expense caps were expected to be implemented for each Fund. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the Funds’ management fee and subadvisory fee structure. The Board also took into account the expected size of the Funds, based upon the sizes of the funds with which they were expected to merge. The Board noted that VFA and the Funds may realize certain economies of scale if the assets of the Funds were to be materially higher than anticipated, particularly in relationship to certain fixed costs, and that shareholders of the Funds would have an opportunity to benefit from these economies of scale.
For similar reasons as stated above with respect to the Subadviser’s profitability, and based upon the expected size of the Funds to be managed by the Subadviser, the Board concluded that the potential for economies of scale in the Subadviser’s management of the Funds was not a material factor in the approval of the Subadvisory Agreement at this time.
Other Factors
The Board considered other benefits that may be realized by VFA and the Subadviser and their respective affiliates from their relationships with the Funds. Among them, the Board recognized that VP Distributors, LLC, an affiliate of VFA, was expected to serve as the distributor for the Trust, and, as such, was expected to receive payments pursuant to Rule 12b-1 from the Funds to compensate it for providing shareholder services and selling activities, which could lead to growth in the Funds’ assets and corresponding benefits from such growth, including economies of scale. The Board noted that an affiliate of VFA

BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES (Continued)
also was expected to provide administrative and transfer agency services to the Trust. The Board noted management’s discussion of the fact that, while the Subadviser is an affiliate of VFA, there were no other direct benefits to the Subadviser or VFA in providing investment advisory services to the Funds, other than the fees to be earned under the Agreements, although there may be certain indirect benefits gained, including to the extent that serving the Funds could provide the opportunity to provide advisory services to additional portfolios of the Trust or certain reputational benefits.
Conclusion
Based on all of the foregoing considerations, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that approval of each Agreement was in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, and the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the Agreements with respect to each Fund.

Expense Examples
As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and/or service fees, and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from April 1, 2017 through September 30, 2017.
Actual Expenses
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not your Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption fees. Therefore, the table 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. The calculations assume no share were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS
To My Fellow Shareholders of Virtus Mutual Funds:
| | |
| | I am pleased to present the semiannual report for your fund for the six-month period ended September 30, 2017, and would like to extend a special welcome to former RidgeWorth Funds shareholders who officially became Virtus Funds shareholders in September. During the past six months, the Federal Reserve (“the Fed”) raised interest rates for the third time since last December, and in October 2017, began the process of unwinding the balance sheet debt it had accumulated since 2008 in its efforts to stimulate the economy – a clear signal that it believes the U.S. is back on a growth path. Global economic growth also strengthened, with other major central banks |
preparing to taper their own stimulus policies. Rounding out the optimistic picture, corporate earnings were generally strong during the period. Against this positive backdrop, equity markets have surged. U.S. large- and small-cap stocks returned 7.71% and 8.27%, as measured by the performance of the S&P 500® Index and Russell 2000® Index, respectively. Within international equities, emerging markets outperformed their developed peers, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net) up 14.66%, compared with the MSCI EAFE® Index (net), which returned 11.86%. Demand for U.S. Treasuries also remained strong, driven by foreign investors who favored their yield advantage and credit quality over many foreign government bonds. On September 30, 2017, the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yielded 2.33%, compared with 2.31% six months earlier. The broader U.S. fixed income market, as represented by the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which tracks Treasuries and other investment-grade debt securities, increased 2.31% for the six months, while non-investment grade bonds gained 4.19%, as measured by the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index. Market uncertainty is an ever-present reminder of the importance of portfolio diversification, including exposure to traditional and alternative asset classes. While diversification cannot guarantee a profit or prevent a loss, owning a variety of asset classes may cushion your portfolio against inevitable market fluctuations. Your financial advisor can help you ensure that your portfolio is adequately diversified across asset classes and investment strategies, with the full array of Virtus Funds now available through your fund exchange privileges. These include distinctive equity, fixed income, international, and asset allocation funds from Virtus affiliates and select subadvisers. We invite you to learn more about our growing family of managers and funds at Virtus.com. On behalf of our investment affiliates, thank you for entrusting the Virtus Funds with your assets. Should you have questions about your account or require assistance, please visit Virtus.com, or call our customer service team at 1-800-243-1574. We appreciate your business and remain committed to your long-term financial success. Sincerely, George R. Aylward President, Virtus Mutual Funds October 2017 |

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 (Unaudited)
Virtus Asset Trust (the “Trust”) is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. As of the date of this report, 26 funds of the Trust are offered for sale, of which 9 (each a “Fund”) are reported in this semi-annual report. Each Fund has a distinct investment objective and is diversified.
Before each Fund identified below commenced operations, all of the property, assets and liabilities of the corresponding Predecessor Fund identified below were transferred to the Fund in a tax-free reorganization as set forth in an agreement and plan of reorganization (each a “RidgeWorth Reorganization”) between the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, and RidgeWorth Funds, on behalf of the Predecessor Funds. As a result of each RidgeWorth Reorganization, the applicable Fund assumed the performance and accounting history of its corresponding Predecessor Fund. Financial information included for the dates prior to the RidgeWorth Reorganizations is that of the Predecessor Funds.

All of the Funds offer Class A shares and Class I shares. Class C shares are offered by the Silvant Large-Cap Growth Stock Fund, the Ceredex Large Cap Value Equity Fund, the Ceredex Mid-Cap Value Equity Fund, the Silvant Small-Cap Growth Stock Fund, and the Ceredex Small-Cap Value Equity Fund. Class R6 shares are offered by the Silvant Large-Cap Growth Stock Fund, the Ceredex Large-Cap Value Equity Fund, the Ceredex Mid-Cap Value Equity Fund, and the WCM International Equity Fund.
Class A shares of the Funds are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% with some exceptions. Generally, Class A shares are not subject to any charges by the Funds when redeemed; however, a 1% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) may be imposed on certain redemptions made within a certain period following purchases on which a finder’s fee has been paid. The period for which the CDSC applies for the Funds is 18 months. The CDSC period begins on the last day of the month preceding the month in which the purchase was made.
Class C shares are generally sold with a 1% CDSC, applicable if redeemed within one year of purchase. Class I shares and Class R6 shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or CDSC.
Class R6 shares are available only to the following investors without a minimum initial investment or minimum additional purchases: certain employer-sponsored retirement plans, including Section 401(k), 403(b) and 457, profit-sharing, money purchase pension and defined benefit plans and nonqualified deferred compensation plans, in each case provided that plan level or omnibus accounts are held on the books of the fund. Other institutional investors may be permitted to purchase Class R6 shares subject to the fund’s determination of eligibility and may be subject to a minimum initial investment requirement. Class R6 shares do not carry sales commissions or pay Rule 12b-1 fees. No compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments are paid to brokers or other entities from Fund assets or the Fund’s distributor’s or an affiliate’s resources on sales of or investments in Class R6 shares.
Virtus Mutual Funds may impose an annual fee on accounts having balances of less than $2,500. The small account fee may be waived in certain circumstances, as disclosed in the prospectuses and/or statements of additional information. The fees collected will be used to offset certain expenses of the Funds. These fees are reflected as “Low Balance Account Fees” in each Fund’s Statements of Operations for the period, as applicable.
Each Class of shares has identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except that each Class bears different distribution and/or service fees under a Rule 12b-1 and/or shareholder service plan (“12b-1 Plan”) approved by the Board and has exclusive

voting rights with respect to such plans. Class I shares and Class R6 shares are not subject to a 12b-1 Plan. Income and other expenses as well as realized and unrealized gains and losses of each Fund are borne pro-rata by the holders of each Class of shares.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be significant.
(a) Investment Valuation — Security valuation procedures for each Fund, which include nightly price variance as well as back-testing items such as bi-weekly unchanged price, monthly secondary source and transaction analysis, have been approved by the Board. All internally fair valued securities are approved by a valuation committee appointed by the Board (the “Valuation Committee”). The Valuation Committee is comprised of certain members of management as identified to the Board and convenes independently from portfolio management. All internally fair valued securities, referred to below, are updated daily and reviewed in detail by the Valuation Committee monthly unless changes occur within the period. The Valuation Committee reviews the validity of the model inputs and any changes to the model. Fair valuations are reviewed quarterly by the Board.
Each Fund utilizes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The Funds’ policy is to recognize transfers between levels at the end of the reporting period.
• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (security types generally include listed equities).
• Level 2 – prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
• Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs (including the Valuation Committee’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
A description of the valuation techniques applied to a Fund’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows:
Equity securities are valued at the official closing price (typically last sale) on the exchange on which the securities are primarily traded or, if no closing price is available, at the last bid price and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Restricted equity securities and private placements that are not widely traded, are illiquid, or are internally fair valued by the Valuation Committee, are generally categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Certain non-U.S. securities may be fair valued in cases where closing prices are not readily available or are deemed not reflective of readily available market prices. For example, significant events (such as movement in the U.S. securities market, or other regional and local developments) may occur between the time that non-U.S. markets close (where the security is principally traded) and the time that a Fund calculates its net asset value (“NAV”) (at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), generally 4 p.m. Eastern time) that may impact the value of securities traded in these non-U.S. markets. In such cases the Fund fair values non-U.S. securities using an independent pricing service which considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the non-U.S. security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as ADRs, financial futures, ETFs, and certain indexes, as well as prices for similar securities. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Because the frequency of significant events is not predictable, fair valuation of certain non-U.S. common stocks may occur on a frequent basis.
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated quotations received from independent pricing services or from dealers who make markets in such securities. For most bond types, the pricing service utilizes matrix pricing that considers one or more of the following factors: yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, current cash flows, type, and current day trade information, as well as dealer-supplied prices. These valuations are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Structured debt instruments such as mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities may also incorporate collateral analysis and utilize cash flow models for valuation and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Pricing services do not provide pricing for all securities and therefore indicative bids from dealers are utilized which are based on pricing models used by market makers in the security and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Debt securities that are not widely traded, are illiquid, or are internally fair valued by the Valuation Committee, are generally categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Listed derivatives, such as options, that are actively traded are valued based on quoted prices from the exchange and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Over-the-counter derivative contracts, which include forward currency contracts and equity-linked instruments, do not require material subjectivity as pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at NAV. Investments in closed-end funds are valued as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE each business day. Both are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

VIRTUS ASSET TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 related to securities held as of September 30, 2017.
(b) Security Transactions and Investment Income – Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from sales of securities are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as a Fund is notified. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Each Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts using the effective interest method. Any distributions from underlying funds are recorded in accordance with the character of the distributions as designated by the underlying funds.
(c) Distributions to Shareholders – Distributions are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from U.S. GAAP.
(d) Distributions from Underlying Funds – Distributions received from underlying funds, whether in the form of cash or securities, are applied as a reduction of the investment’s cost when identified by the underlying fund as a return of capital. Once the investment’s cost is received, any further distributions are recognized as realized gains.
(e) Expenses and Share Class Accounting – Expenses incurred together by a Fund and other affiliated mutual funds are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each such fund, except where allocation of direct expense to each fund or an alternative allocation method can be more appropriately used. In addition to the net annual operating expenses that a Fund bears directly, the shareholders of a Fund indirectly bear the pro rata expenses of any underlying mutual funds in which the Fund invests.
(f) Foreign Currency Translation – Non-U.S. investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the foreign currency exchange rate effective at the end of the reporting period. Cost of investments is translated at the currency exchange rate effective at the trade date. The gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates between the trade and settlement date of a portfolio transaction is treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. Likewise, the gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates between the date income is accrued and the date it is paid is treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
(g) Securities Lending – During the period, certain Funds were permitted to loan securities to qualified brokers through an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), as a third party lending agent. Under the terms of agreement, a Fund doing so was required to maintain collateral with a market value not less than 100% of the market value of loaned securities. Collateral was adjusted daily in connection with changes in the market value of securities on loan. Collateral may have consisted of cash and securities issued by the U.S. Government or its agencies. Cash collateral was invested in a short-term money market fund. Dividends earned on the collateral and premiums paid by the broker were recorded as income by a Fund net of fees and rebates charged by State Street for its services as securities lending agent and in connection with this securities lending program. Effective August 10, 2017, securities lending was suspended for the Funds. There were no securities on loan as of September 30, 2017.
(h) Real Estate Investment Trusts – Certain Funds may own shares of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) which report information on the source of their distributions annually. The Funds re-characterize distributions received from REIT investments based on information provided by the REITs into the following categories: ordinary income, long-term capital gains, and return of capital. If information is not available on a timely basis from the REITs, the re-characterization will be estimated based on available information which may include the previous year’s allocation. If new or additional information becomes available from the REITs at a later date, a re-characterization will be made in the following year. The Funds record as dividend income the amount re-characterized as ordinary income and as realized gain the amount re-characterized as long-term capital gain in the Statements of Operations, and the amount re-characterized as a return of capital as a reduction to the cost of investments in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and in the Schedules of Portfolio Investments. These re-characterizations are reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
(i) Restricted Securities — Certain Funds’ investments are restricted as to resale. All of these restricted securities have been deemed liquid by the Funds’ Investment Adviser based upon procedures approved by the Board, unless stated otherwise in the Funds’ Schedules of Portfolio Investments. As of September 30, 2017, the Funds did not have any restricted securities.
(j) Foreign Investments — Certain Funds may invest in securities of foreign issuers in various countries. Investments in securities of foreign issuers carry certain risks not ordinarily associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks include future political and economic developments, and the possible imposition of exchange controls or other foreign governmental laws and restrictions. In addition, with respect to certain countries, there is a possibility of expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation, political or social instability or diplomatic developments, which could adversely affect investments in those countries. Emerging market countries are countries that the World Bank or the United Nations considers to be emerging or developing. Emerging markets may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. In addition, the financial stability of issuers, including governments, in emerging market countries may be more precarious than in other countries. As a result, there may be an increased risk of price volatility associated with a Fund’s investments in emerging market countries, which may be magnified by currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar. Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for additional risks that may be associated with the Funds.
For securities subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.
(k) Federal and Other Taxes — Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. It is the intention of each Fund to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.
Certain Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. Each Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable based upon current interpretations of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.

VIRTUS ASSET TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
Management of the Funds has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. As of September 30, 2017, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations are from the year 2014 forward (with limited exceptions).
(l) Reclassification — GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per share.
(m) Line of Credit — On September 22, 2017, the Funds terminated a committed unsecured revolving line of credit agreement (“LOC”) with a syndicate of banks which included State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”) and Royal Bank of Canada (“RBC”), in the aggregate amount of $200,000,000. The proceeds were permitted to be used only to (1) temporarily finance the purchase and sale of securities; or (2) finance the redemption of shares of the Funds. The Funds paid a commitment fee on a pro rata basis to State Street Bank and RBC, in the amount of 0.17% per annum on the daily unused portion of the LOC. Borrowings under the LOC accrues interest at the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate, or (b) the one-month London Interbank Overnight Rate (LIBOR) Rate, plus 1.25% per annum. Generally, repayments were required to be made within 60 days of the borrowings. Commitment fees and interest expense paid to State Street Bank and RBC pursuant to this agreement are reflected on the Statements of Operations as a component of Other Fees.
The following Funds had an outstanding loan during the period. The borrowings were valued at cost, which approximates fair value.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Interest Incurred on Borrowing | | | Average Dollar Amount of Borrowing | | | Weighted Average Interest Rate on Borrowing | | | Days Loan was Open | |
Ceredex Large-Cap Value Equity Fund | | $ | 2,356 | | | $ | 18,685,693 | | | | 2.27 | % | | | 2 | |
Ceredex Small-Cap Value Equity Fund | | | 529 | | | | 474,228 | | | | 2.36 | | | | 17 | |
Silvant Large-Cap Growth Stock Fund | | | 54 | | | | 274,011 | | | | 2.38 | | | | 3 | |
Silvant Small-Cap Growth Stock Fund | | | 10 | | | | 153,868 | | | | 2.24 | | | | 1 | |
Zevenbergen Innovative Growth Stock Fund | | | 2,546 | | | | 1,558,838 | | | | 2.45 | | | | 24 | |
On September 18, 2017, the Funds and other affiliated funds (with the exception of Newfleet Senior Floating Rate Fund and Newfleet Credit Opportunities Fund) entered into a $250,000,000 unsecured line of credit of which $100,000,000 is available for utilization by the Virtus Seix Floating Rate Fund and the remaining $150,000,000 is available for utilization by the remaining Funds and other affiliated funds. This line of credit is with a commercial bank and allows the Funds to borrow cash from the bank to manage large unexpected redemptions and trade fails, up to a limit of one-third or one-fifth of each Fund’s total net assets in accordance with the terms of the agreement. This line of credit has a term of 364 days. Interest is charged at the higher of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the Federal Funds rate plus an additional percentage rate on the amount borrowed. Commitment fees are charged on the undrawn balance. The Funds and other affiliated funds that are parties are individually, and not jointly, liable for their particular advances, if any, under the line of credit. The lending bank has the ability to require repayment of outstanding borrowings under this line of credit upon certain circumstances such as an event of default.
(n) Master Limited Partnership — Certain Funds may invest in domestic master limited partnership (“MLPs”). MLPs are publicly traded companies organized as limited partnerships or limited liability companies and treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. An investment in MLP units involves risks in addition to the risks associated with a similar investment in equity securities, such as common stock, of a corporation. As compared to common shareholders of a corporation, holders of MLP units have more limited control and limited rights to vote on matters affecting the partnership. Additional risks inherent to investments in MLP units include cash flow risk, tax risk, risk associated with a potential conflict of interest between unit holders and the MLP’s general partner, and capital markets risk. Moreover, the value of the Fund’s investment in MLPs depends largely on the MLPs being treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If an MLP does not meet current legal requirements to maintain eligibility for partnership tax treatment, or if it is unable to do so because of tax law changes, it could be taxed as a corporation and there could be a material decrease in the value of its securities. Certain MLP securities may trade in lower volumes due to their smaller capitalizations. Accordingly, those MLPs may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements and may lack sufficient market liquidity to enable the Fund to effect sales at an advantageous time or without a substantial drop in price. MLPs are generally considered interest-rate sensitive investments. During periods of interest rate volatility, these investments may not provide attractive returns.
Distributions received from each Fund’s investments in MLPs may be comprised of both income and return of capital. Each Fund records investment income and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from MLPs after their tax reporting periods are concluded.
| 3. | Investment Adviser and Other Service Providers |
Investment Adviser — Virtus Fund Advisers, LLC (formerly, RidgeWorth Capital Management LLC) (“Investment Adviser”), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Virtus Investment Partners, Inc. (“Virtus”), serves as the investment adviser to the Funds. The Trust and the Investment Adviser have entered into an investment advisory agreement (“Advisory Agreement”).

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, and in separate agreements between each Trustee and the Trust, its Trustees and officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust and its funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide a variety of indemnifications to other parties. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and that have not occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these arrangements and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
Certain Funds may invest a high percentage of their assets in specific sectors of the market in the pursuit of their investment objectives. Fluctuations in these sectors of concentration may have a greater impact on a Fund, positive or negative, than if a Fund did not concentrate its investments in such sectors.

The Funds utilize the provisions of the federal income tax laws that provide for the carry forward of capital losses from prior years, offsetting such losses against any future realized capital gains. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”), net capital losses recognized in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 (“post-enactment”), may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term and/or long-term losses. Previously, net capital losses were carried forward for eight years and treated as short-term losses (“pre-enactment”). The Act requires that post-enactment net capital losses be used before pre-enactment net capital losses.
As of March 31, 2017, the post-enactment accumulated short-term and long-term capital loss carry forwards were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

11. Reorganizations
On December 14, 2016, the RidgeWorth Funds Board of Trustees approved the reorganization of the RidgeWorth Growth Allocation Strategy (the “Acquiring Fund”) and the RidgeWorth Moderate Allocation Strategy (the “Target Fund”) into the Virtus Growth Allocation Strategy Fund, a series of the Virtus Asset Trust. On July 17, 2017 the RidgeWorth Growth Allocation Strategy acquired all of the net assets of the RidgeWorth Moderate Allocation Strategy in a tax-free exchange of shares. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two portfolios with comparable investment objectives and strategies.
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Target Fund | | Shares Prior to Reorganization | | | Shares Issued by the Acquiring Fund | | | Net Assets Prior to Reorganization | |
Class I | | | 3,223,773 | | | | 2,705,908 | | | $ | 28,142,117 | |
Class A | | | 1,161,740 | | | | 975,179 | | | | 10,084,163 | |
Class C | | | 1,104,256 | | | | 945,384 | | | | 9,498,974 | |
The appreciation (depreciation) of the acquired fund was $8,905,953 as of the date of the merger.
The combined net assets of the Acquiring Fund immediately after the reorganization were $60,704,030.
Assuming the acquisition had been completed on April 1, 2017, the beginning of the reporting period of the Acquiring Fund, the Acquiring Fund’s pro forma results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2017 were as follows:
| | | | |
Net Investment Income (Loss) | | $ | 1,526,469 | |
Net Realized and Unrealized Gains/Losses on Investments | | $ | 12,505,128 | |
Net Increase/Decrease in Net Assets resulting from Operations | | $ | 14,031,597 | |

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Target Fund that has been included in the Acquiring Fund’s Statement of Operations as of September 30, 2017.
12. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In October 2016, the SEC released its Final Rule on Investment Company Reporting Modernization (the “Rule”). The Rule contains amendments to Regulation S-X which impact financial statement presentation, particularly the presentation of derivative investments. The financial statements presented are in compliance with the most recent Regulations S-X amendments.
13. | Regulatory Matters and Litigation |
From time to time, the Trust, the Investment Adviser and/or Subadvisers and/or their affiliates may be involved in litigation and arbitration as well as examinations and investigations by various regulatory bodies, including the SEC, involving compliance with, among other things, securities laws, client investment guidelines, laws governing the activities of broker-dealers and other laws and regulations affecting their products and other activities. At this time, the Investment Adviser believes that the outcomes of such matters are not likely, either individually or in the aggregate, to be material to these financial statements.
Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued. Management has determined, except as set forth below, that there are no material events that would require disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements through this date.
At a meeting held on September 20, 2017, the Board of Trustees approved a change to the Trust’s fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31. This change took effect on October 1, 2017.
Effective close of business October 20, 2017, Fund Accounting, Custody and Sub-Administration moved to The Bank of New York Mellon.
Effective November 1, 2017, the Securities Lending Agreement with State Street was terminated.

BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Virtus Asset Trust (the “Trust”) is responsible for determining whether to approve the establishment and continuation of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between the Funds and Virtus Fund Advisers, LLC (“VFA”) and the subadvisory agreements (the “Subadvisory Agreements” and together with the Advisory Agreement, the “Agreements”) among VFA and Ceredex Value Advisors LLC (“Ceredex”) with respect to Virtus Ceredex Large-Cap Value Equity Fund, Virtus Ceredex Mid-Cap Value Equity Fund and Virtus Ceredex Small-Cap Value Equity Fund; VFA and Silvant Capital Management LLC (“Silvant”) with respect to Virtus Silvant Large-Cap Growth Stock Fund and Virtus Silvant Small-Cap Growth Stock Fund; VFA and WCM Investment Management (“WCM”) with respect to Virtus WCM International Equity Fund; and VFA and Zevenbergen Capital Investments LLC (“Zevenbergen”) with respect to Virtus Zevenbergen Innovative Growth Stock Fund (each a “Subadviser” and collectively, the “Subadvisers”). At a special telephonic meeting held on February 9, 2017, and at an in-person meeting held March 1-2, 2017, the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (such Act, the “1940 Act” and such Trustees, the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the establishment of the Agreements, as further discussed below.
In connection with the approval of the Agreements, the Board requested and evaluated information provided by VFA and the Subadvisers which, in the Board’s view, constituted information necessary for the Board to form a judgment as to whether approval of each of the Agreements would be in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders.
The Board was separately advised by independent legal counsel throughout the process. For each Agreement, the Board considered all the criteria separately with respect to the Funds and their shareholders. In their deliberations, the Board considered various factors, including those discussed below, none of which were controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Independent Trustees also discussed the proposed approval of the Agreements in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of management were present.
In considering whether to approve the Agreements with respect to each Fund, the Board reviewed and analyzed the factors it deemed relevant, including: (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by VFA and the Subadvisers; (2) information regarding performance expectations as well as historical performance of funds with which the Funds were expected to merge and like which the Funds were expected to be managed; (3) the level and method of computing each Fund’s advisory and subadvisory fees, and comparisons of each Fund’s proposed advisory fee rates with those of a group of other funds with similar investment objective(s); (4) the projected profitability of VFA and its affiliates under the Advisory Agreement; (5) any “fall-out” benefits to VFA, the Subadviser and their affiliates (i.e., ancillary benefits realized by VFA, the Subadviser or their affiliates from VFA’s or the Subadviser’s relationship with the Funds); (6) the anticipated effect of growth in size on each Fund’s performance and expenses; (7) possible conflicts of interest; and (8) the terms of the Agreements.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Trustees received in advance of the Meetings information provided by VFA and the Subadvisers, including completed questionnaires concerning a number of topics, including each company’s investment philosophy, resources, operations and compliance structure. The Trustees also received a presentation by VFA’s senior management personnel, during which among other items, VFA’s history, investment process, investment strategies, personnel, compliance procedures and the firm’s overall performance were reviewed and discussed. The Trustees noted that the Funds would be managed using a “manager of managers” structure that generally involves the use of one or more subadvisers to manage some or all of a Fund’s portfolio. Under this structure, VFA is responsible for the oversight of the Funds’ investment programs and day-to-day operations and for evaluating and selecting subadvisers on an ongoing basis and making any recommendations to the Board regarding hiring, retaining or replacing subadvisers. In considering the Advisory Agreement with VFA, the Board considered VFA’s process for supervising and managing the Funds’ subadvisers, including (a) VFA’s ability to select and monitor the subadvisers; (b) VFA’s ability to provide the services necessary to monitor each subadviser’s compliance with the Funds’ respective investment objectives, policies and restrictions as well as provide other oversight activities; and (c) VFA’s ability and willingness to identify instances in which a subadviser should be replaced and to carry out the required changes. The Trustees also considered: (a) the experience and capability of VFA’s management and other personnel; (b) the financial condition of VFA, and whether it had the financial wherewithal to provide a high level and quality of services to the Funds; (c) the quality of VFA’s own regulatory and legal compliance policies, procedures and systems; (d) the nature, extent and quality of administrative, transfer agency and other services expected to be provided by VFA and its affiliates to the Funds; (e) VFA’s expected supervision of the Funds’ other service providers; and (f) VFA’s risk management processes. It was noted that affiliates of VFA were expected to serve as administrator, transfer agent and distributor to the Funds. The Board also took into account its knowledge of VFA’s management and the quality of the performance of their duties on behalf of an affiliated manager with which the Board was familiar through Board meetings, discussions and reports, as well as information from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer regarding the Funds’ compliance policies and procedures proposed to be established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act.
With respect to the services to be provided by each of the Subadvisers, the Board considered information provided to the Board by each Subadviser, including each Subadviser’s Form ADV, as well as presentations provided by portfolio management personnel of the Subadvisers. With respect to the Subadvisory Agreements, the Board noted that each Subadviser would provide portfolio management, compliance with each respective Fund’s investment policies and procedures, compliance with applicable securities laws and assurances thereof. The Board also noted that VFA’s and the Subadvisers’ management of the Funds is subject to the oversight of the Board and must be carried out in accordance with the investment objective(s), policies and restrictions set forth in the Funds’ prospectuses and statement of additional information. In considering approval of the Subadvisory Agreements, the Board also considered each Subadviser’s investment management process, including (a) the experience and capability of each Subadviser’s management and other personnel committed by each Subadviser to the Funds; (b) the financial condition of each Subadviser; (c) the quality of the Subadviser’s regulatory and legal compliance policies, procedures and systems; and (d) the Subadviser’s brokerage and trading practices, including with respect to best execution

and soft dollars. The Board also took into account each Subadviser’s risk assessment and monitoring process. The Board noted each Subadviser’s regulatory history, including whether it was currently involved in any regulatory actions or investigations as well as material litigation, and any settlements and amelioratory actions undertaken, as appropriate.
After considering all of the information provided to them, the Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be provided by VFA and each Subadviser were satisfactory and that there was a reasonable basis on which to conclude that each would provide a high quality of investment services to the applicable Fund(s).
Investment Performance
Because the Funds had not commenced operations, the Board could not evaluate prior investment performance for the Funds. However, the Board reviewed and was satisfied with certain information regarding expected performance that was based upon the Funds’ proposed investment strategies, including performance of funds having the same investment strategies that were managed by VFA and the Subadvisers and with which the Funds were expected to merge.
Management Fees and Total Expenses
The Board considered the fees proposed to be charged to the Funds for advisory services as well as the expected total expense levels of each Fund. Among other data provided, the Board noted that the proposed management fee and total expenses for each Fund were within the range of other funds deemed to be comparable to the Funds by management. The Board noted that each Fund was expected to have fee waivers and/or expense caps in place to limit the total expenses incurred by each Fund and its shareholders. The Board also noted that the subadvisory fees would be paid by VFA out of its management fees rather than paid separately by the Funds. In this regard, the Board took into account management’s discussion with respect to the advisory/subadvisory fee structure, including the amount of the advisory fee expected to be retained by VFA after payment of the subadvisory fee. The Board also took into account the expected size of each of the Funds and the impact on expenses.
The Board concluded that the proposed advisory and subadvisory fees for the Funds were fair and reasonable in light of the usual and customary charges made for services of the same nature and quality and the other factors considered.
Projected Profitability
The Board also considered certain information relating to projected profitability that had been provided by VFA. In this regard, the Board considered information regarding the projected profitability of VFA for its management of the Funds, as well as the projected profitability of its affiliates for managing and providing other services to the Funds, such as distribution, transfer agency and administrative services provided to the Funds by a VFA affiliate. In addition to the fees paid to VFA and its affiliates, the Board considered any other benefits derived by VFA or its affiliates from their relationship with the Funds. The Board concluded that the projected profitability to VFA and its affiliates from the Funds was reasonable in light of the quality of the services to be rendered to the Funds by VFA and its affiliates.
In considering the projected profitability to the Subadvisers in connection with their relationship to the Funds, the Board noted that the fees under the Subadvisory Agreement would be paid by VFA out of the fees that VFA receives under the Advisory Agreement, so that Fund shareholders would not be directly impacted by those fees. In considering the reasonableness of the fees payable by VFA to the affiliated Subadvisers, the Board noted that, because the Subadvisers are affiliates of VFA, such profitability might be directly or indirectly shared by VFA. In addition, with respect to WCM, the unaffiliated Subadviser, the Board relied on the ability of VFA to negotiate the Subadvisory Agreement and the fees thereunder at arm’s length. For each of the above reasons, the Board concluded that the projected profitability to the Subadvisers and their affiliates from their relationship with the Funds was not a material factor in approval of the Subadvisory Agreements.
Economies of Scale
The Board received and discussed information concerning whether VFA should be expected to realize economies of scale as the Funds’ assets grow. The Board noted that the proposed management fee for each Fund included breakpoints based on assets under management and that expense caps were expected to be implemented for each Fund. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the Funds’ management fee and subadvisory fee structure. The Board also took into account the expected size of the Funds, based upon the sizes of the funds with which they were expected to merge. The Board noted that VFA and the Funds may realize certain economies of scale if the assets of the Funds were to be materially higher than anticipated, particularly in relationship to certain fixed costs, and that shareholders of the Funds would have an opportunity to benefit from these economies of scale.
For similar reasons as stated above with respect to the Subadvisers’ profitability, and based upon the expected size of the Funds to be managed by each Subadviser, the Board concluded that the potential for economies of scale in the Subadvisers’ management of the Funds was not a material factor in the approval of the Subadvisory Agreements at this time.
Other Factors
The Board considered other benefits that may be realized by VFA and each Subadviser and their respective affiliates from their relationships with the Funds. Among them, the Board recognized that VP Distributors, LLC, an affiliate of VFA, was expected to serve as the distributor for the Trust, and, as such, was expected to receive payments pursuant to Rule 12b-1 from the Funds to compensate it for providing shareholder services and selling activities, which could lead to growth in the Funds’ assets and corresponding benefits from such growth, including economies of scale. The Board noted that an affiliate of VFA also was expected to provide administrative and transfer agency services to the Trust. The Board noted management’s discussion of the fact that, while certain of the Subadvisers are affiliates of VFA, there were no other direct benefits to the Subadvisers or VFA in providing investment advisory

services to the Funds, other than the fees to be earned under the Agreements, although there may be certain indirect benefits gained, including to the extent that serving the Funds could provide the opportunity to provide advisory services to additional portfolios of the Trust or certain reputational benefits.
Conclusion
Based on all of the foregoing considerations, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that approval of each Agreement was in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, and the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the Agreements with respect to each Fund.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) (Continued)
September 30, 2017
Expense Examples
As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and/or service fees, and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from April 1, 2017 through September 30, 2017.
Actual Expenses
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) (Continued)
September 30, 2017
Hypothetical Example
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not your Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption fees. Therefore, the table 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. The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.
