Commentary
Our Q1 2022 letter was titled Locomotive Breath, which we believe portrays a loss of control resulting from extreme, unanticipated events and the need to make the best of it as we go forward, which could describe today’s geopolitical and economic backdrop. In our 2021 year-end letter, we anticipated significant volatility. However, the events in the beginning of 2022 have been beyond our expectations with the Russian invasion of Ukraine exacerbating ongoing challenges posed by inflation and supply chain bottlenecks. Capital preservation and investment success often come down to how an investor weathers these episodes and finds ways to take advantage of them.

The series of yield curves above reflects the crux of investors’ concerns. Beginning in 2021 and gaining momentum throughout the year, the U.S. economy was running “hot” leading to a steady decline in unemployment, rising wages and an ongoing increase in demand for goods causing inflation. This was compounded by supply chain bottlenecks and labor shortages. The Federal Reserve actively messaged its concern that inflation was no longer “transitory” and its intent to pursue policy to prevent a “runaway train.” Thus, the rise in yields in January and early February 2022 reflects the fact that “Mr. Market” was well prepared for the Federal Reserve to begin reversing its expansionary monetary policy.
Investors were not prepared for the Russian invasion of Ukraine that began on February 24th. Markets reacted quickly, but the typical “flight to quality” into U.S. Treasuries did not occur. Why? Energy and food prices spiked sharply raising fears that inflation might go out of control, similar to the 1970s, given Russia and Ukraine’s roles as significant global producers. On March 16th, true to their word, the Federal Reserve raised the Fed Funds Rate by 25 basis points and indicated that they would raise rates at each meeting through the end of 2022 and possibly into 2023.

As shown above, oil and gas prices jumped dramatically after many Western countries barred the purchase of Russian-produced energy, effectively taking it off the market. Food prices also rose substantially since Ukrainian farming, which accounts for 8.0% and 13.2% of world wheat and corn exportsc, respectively, was severely reduced by the war. Food prices were also impacted by higher cost for fertilizer, transportation and packaging, which are tied to oil and gas prices. Although Russia is not a major producer of copper, aluminum and nickel, challenges to global supply caused by the war propelled their prices higher. Further, the rise in the price of palladium in Q1 2022 is representative of lesser-known commodities, including helium, neon, argon, krypton and xenon, for which Russia and/or Ukraine are major suppliers. These gases are critical inputs in high tech products such as semiconductors, which have experienced shortages due to supply chain disruptions.
SPAC Update
Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs) represent a significant holding in our Funds.1 We recognize that the SPAC market has slowed and the SEC has issued proposed regulations concerning disclosures that may impact the volume of issuance going forward,2 but we remain confident that this is a permanent asset class for capital formation.3 Regardless, the outstanding issuance is plentiful for ultra-short investing at attractive yields with limited credit risk as long as one purchases SPACs below trust value and always redeems.
________________
1 | At 3/31/22, CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund held 11.3% of its net assets in SPACs, CrossingBridge Ultra-Short Duration Fund held 12.1% of its net assets in SPACs, CrossingBridge Responsible Credit Fund held 17.2% of its net assets in SPACs and CrossingBridge Pre-Merger SPAC ETF held 99.3% of its net assets in SPACs. |

3 | For an academic study of the merit of capital formation via SPAC transactions, see PE for the Public: The Rise of SPACs, Gryglewicz, Hartman-Glaser and Mayer, 3/18/22 |
As shown at the bottom of the previous page, there are billions of dollars of capital in trust accounts of SPACs that have yet to complete a merger. However, as each day passes, they are moving toward the date at which they must liquidate, returning their capital to shareholders. This effectively represents the universe of SPACs from which we can select investments for our fixed income-oriented approach to SPACs. The spike in the number of SPACs reaching their liquidation date in early 2023 is an echo of the peak in SPAC issuance during the summer of 2021, reflecting the typical 18-month period during which a SPAC can look for a merger partner.

Despite a slowdown in SPAC issuance in Q1 2022, the number SPACs seeking merger partners and the capital they represent increased during the quarter, providing a growing opportunity set for our investment in SPACs. In addition, the yield to liquidation increased by 49 basis points, reflecting the rise in interest rates, while the months to liquidation declined by nearly 3 months. At quarter-end, the Treasury yield for a T-Bill with maturity 10.6 months out was approximately 1.59%F; thus, on average, an investment in SPACs seeking merger partners had a yield to liquidation that exceeded the yield on the comparable T-Bill by 115 basis points. The yield achieved on a portfolio of such SPACs would likely be higher as some SPAC mergers will likely take place earlier than the liquidation date, thus speeding up the return of capital to shareholders who elect to redeem their shares.
Dynamic Braking
“Dynamic braking” is used to stop runaway trains.4 Similarly, the Fed is using higher interest rates and quantitative tightening to quell inflation. Whether they will be successful, we have no opinion.
Some have taken note that the yield curve has inverted5 between the 3-year and 10-year maturities and pointed to curve inversion as a harbinger of recession. However, members of the Federal Reserve have been dismissive of the signaling power of a 2-year versus 10-year inversion and only become concerned when an inversion of the 3-month T-Bill versus the 10-year bond becomes deeply negative and persistent.G Thus, with the curve quite steep beyond 3 months, the labor market red-hot and GDP at its highest level in over 20 yearsH a recession may seem far off. But what do we know? We remain defensively positioned with a lot of dry powder, prepared to very selectively take advantage of opportunities as they appear.
Focusing on the fundamentals,

A Basis Point (BP) is 1/100 of one percent. LIBOR is the average interbank interest rate at which a selection of banks on the London money market are prepared to lend to one another. Yield to Maturity (YTM) is the total return anticipated on a bond (on an annualized basis) if the bond is held until it matures. Duration is a measure of the sensitivity of the price of a bond or other debt instrument to a change in interest rates.
ETF definitions: the ICE BOFA 0-3 Year U.S. Treasury Index tracks the performance of U.S. dollar denominated sovereign debt publicly issued by the U.S. government in its domestic market with maturities less than three years. Gross Spread is the amount by which a SPAC is trading at a discount or premium to its pro rata share of the collateral trust value. For example, if a SPAC is trading at $9.70 and shareholders’ pro rata share of the trust account is $10.00/share, the SPAC has a gross spread of 3% (trading at a 3% discount). Yield to Liquidation: similar to a bond’s yield to maturity, SPACs have a yield to liquidation/redemption, which can be calculated using the gross spread and time to liquidation. Maturity: similar to a bond’s maturity date, SPAC also have a maturity, which is the defined time period in which they have to complete a business combination. This is referred to as the liquidation or redemption date. Price refers to the price at which the ETF is currently trading. The sec yield is a standard yield calculation developed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that allows for fairer comparisons of bond funds. It is based on the most recent 30-day period covered by the fund’s filings with the SEC. The yield figure reflects the dividends and interest earned during the period after the deduction of the fund’s expenses. It is also referred to as the “standardized yield.”
All performance data greater than 1 year is annualized.
Diversification does not assure a profit nor protect against loss in a declining market.
A stock is a type of security that signifies ownership in a corporation and represents a claim on part of the corporation’s assets and earnings. A bond is a debt investment in which an investor loans money to an entity that borrows the fund for a defined period of time at a fixed interest rate. A stock may trade with more or less liquidity than a bond depending on the number of shares and bonds outstanding, the size of the company, and the demand for the securities. The SEC does not approve, endorse, nor indemnify any security.

CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund
(Unaudited)
The 2021-2022 fiscal semi-annual period for the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund (CBLDX; the “Fund”) covers the six-month period of October 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022. During this period, the Fund gained 0.73% on its Institutional Class shares while the ICE BofA 0-3 Year U.S. High Yield Excluding Financials Index lost -1.44%, the ICE BofA 1-3 Year U.S. Corporate Bond Index lost -3.69% and the ICE BofA 0-3 Year U.S. Treasury Index lost -2.07%.
Monthly investment results for the fiscal year ranged from -0.03% in March 2022 to 0.31% in December 2021. The Fund generated positive returns for four out of the six months during the fiscal semi-annual period. The median monthly return for the period was 0.10% with an annualized standard deviation of 0.49%.
The total return for the period was positive. The Fund had positive contributions from interest income and had realized gains and unrealized losses during the period. The Fund’s NAV decreased from $10.36 on September 30, 2021 to $10.13 on March 31, 2022, but the Fund distributed $0.31 during the period.

Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Investments in foreign securities involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investment in lower-rated and non-rated securities presents a greater risk of loss to principal and interest than higher-rated securities. The Fund may make short sales of securities, which involves the risk that losses may exceed the original amount invested. The Fund may invest in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and exchange-traded notes (“ETNs”), which are subject to additional risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including the risks that the market price of an ETF’s and ETN’s shares may trade at a discount to its net asset value (“NAV”), an active secondary trading market may not develop or be maintained, or trading may be halted by the
exchange in which they trade, which may impact the Fund’s ability to sell the shares. The value of ETNs may be influenced by the level of supply and demand for the ETN, volatility and lack of liquidity. The Fund may invest in derivative securities, which derive their performance from the performance of an underlying asset, index, interest rate or currency exchange rate. Derivatives can be volatile and involve various types and degrees of risks, and, depending upon the characteristics of a particular derivative, suddenly can become illiquid. Investments in asset-backed, mortgage-backed, and collateralized mortgage-backed securities include additional risks that investors should be aware of such as credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments. The Fund invests in equity securities and warrants of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) . Pre-combination SPACs have no operating history or ongoing business other than seeking a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase negotiation or similar business combination (a “Combination”), and the value of their securities is particularly dependent on the ability of the entity’s management to identify and complete a profitable Combination. There is no guarantee that the SPACs in which the Fund invests will complete a Combination or that any Combination that is completed will be profitable. Unless and until a Combination is completed, a SPAC generally invests its assets in U.S. government securities, money market securities, and cash. Public stockholders of SPACs may not be afforded a meaningful opportunity to vote on a proposed initial Combination because certain stockholders, including stockholders affiliated with the management of the SPAC, may have sufficient voting power, and a financial incentive, to approve such a transaction without support from public stockholders. As a result, a SPAC may complete a Combination even though a majority of its public stockholders do not support such a Combination. Some SPACs may pursue Combinations only within certain industries or regions, which may increase the volatility of their prices. The Fund may invest in SPACs domiciled or listed outside of the U.S., including, but not limited to, Canada, the Cayman Islands, Bermuda and the Virgin Islands. Investments in SPACs domiciled or listed outside of the U.S. may involve risks not generally associated with investments in the securities of U.S. SPACs, such as risks relating to political, social, and economic developments abroad and differences between U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements and market practices. Further, tax treatment may differ from U.S. SPACs and securities may be subject of foreign withholding taxes. Smaller capitalization SPACs will have a more limited pool of companies with which they can pursue a business combination relative to larger capitalization companies. That may make it more difficult for a small capitalization SPAC to consummate a business combination.

CrossingBridge Responsible Credit Fund
(Unaudited)
The 2021-2022 fiscal semi-annual period for the CrossingBridge Responsible Credit Fund (CBRDX; the “Fund”) covers the six-month period of October 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022. During this period, the Fund gained 0.33% on its Institutional Class shares while the ICE BofA U.S. High Yield Index lost -3.89%, the ICE BofA U.S. Corporate Index lost -7.58% and the ICE BofA 3-7 Year U.S. Treasury Index lost -5.63%.
Monthly investment results for the fiscal period ranged from -0.30% in January 2022 to 0.41% in December 2021. The Fund generated positive returns for four out of the six months during the fiscal period. The median monthly return for the period was 0.11% with an annualized standard deviation of 1.00%.
The total return for the period was higher. The Fund had positive contributions from interest income and had realized capital gains and unrealized losses during the period. The Fund’s NAV increased from $10.01 on September 30, 2021 to $9.88 on March 31, 2022, but the Fund distributed $0.16 during the period.
Opinions expressed are subject to change at any time, are not guaranteed and should not be considered investment advice.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
The Fund is non-diversified under the 1940 Act, therefore allowing the Fund to be more concentrated than a diversified fund. Because the Fund is non-diversified it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers than if it were a diversified fund. As a result, a decline in the value of an investment in a single issuer could cause the Fund’s overall value to decline to a greater degree than if the Fund held a more diversified portfolio. Current fund statistics may not be indicative of future positioning.

Because the Fund is non-diversified it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers than if it were a diversified fund. As a result, a decline in the value of an investment in a single issuer could cause the Fund’s overall value to decline to a greater degree than if the Fund held a more diversified portfolio.

CROSSINGBRIDGE FUNDS
Expense Example
(Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund, CrossingBridge Responsible Credit Fund and CrossingBridge Ultra-Short Duration Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, shareholder servicing plan fees and other Fund expenses. As a shareholder of the CrossingBridge Pre-Merger SPAC ETF, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of the Fund’s shares, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees of the Fund. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the respective period disclosed in the following table and held for the entire respective period disclosed in the following table.
Actual Expenses
The first line under each Fund in the following table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each Fund. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line under each Fund in the following table 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 the 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 the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of 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), redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of 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.

CROSSINGBRIDGE FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)
(1) | Organization |
| |
| Trust for Professional Managers (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust under a Declaration of Trust dated May 29, 2001. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The CrossingBridge Funds (the “Funds”) are comprised of the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund, the CrossingBridge Responsible Credit Fund, the CrossingBridge Ultra-Short Duration Fund (collectively, the “Mutual Funds”) and the CrossingBridge Pre-Merger SPAC ETF (the “ETF”), each representing a distinct diversified series with its own investment objective and policies within the Trust. |
| |
| The investment objective of the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund is to seek high current income and capital appreciation consistent with the preservation of capital. The investment objective of the CrossingBridge Responsible Credit Fund is to seek high current income and capital appreciation consistent with the preservation of capital. The investment objective of the CrossingBridge Ultra-Short Duration Fund is to offer a higher yield than cash instruments while maintaining a low duration. |
| |
| The CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund commenced investment operations on February 1, 2018. The Fund has registered both an Investor Class and Institutional Class of shares. During the period ended March 31, 2022, only the Institutional Class was operational. Both the CrossingBridge Responsible Credit Fund and CrossingBridge Ultra-Short Duration Fund commenced investment operations on June 30, 2021. Both Funds registered only an Institutional Class of shares. |
| |
| The investment objective of the CrossingBridge Pre-Merger SPAC ETF is to provide total returns consistent with the preservation of capital. The ETF commenced investment operations on September 20, 2021. |
| |
| Costs incurred by the Funds in connection with the organization, registration and the initial public offering of shares were paid by CrossingBridge Advisors, LLC (“the Adviser”), the Funds’ investment adviser. The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest at $0.001 par value. The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” |
| |
(2) | Significant Accounting Policies |
| |
| The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of the financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). |
| |
| (a) Investment Valuation |
| |
| Each security owned by a Fund that is listed on a securities exchange, including Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (“SPACs”), is valued at its last sale price on that exchange on the date as of which assets are valued. Bank loans are valued at prices supplied by an approved independent pricing service (“Pricing Service”), if available, and otherwise will be valued at the most recent bid quotations or evaluated prices, as applicable, based on quotations or prices obtained from one or more broker-dealers known to follow the issue. |
CROSSINGBRIDGE FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)
| If the security is listed on more than one exchange, a Fund will use the price of the exchange that the Fund generally considers to be the principal exchange on which the security is traded. Portfolio securities listed on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price. If there has been no sale on such exchange or on NASDAQ on such day, the security is valued at the mean between the most recent bid and asked prices on such day or the security shall be valued at the latest sales price on the “composite market” for the day such security is being valued. The composite market is defined as a consolidation of the trade information provided by national securities and foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets as published by a Pricing Service. |
| |
| Foreign securities will be priced in their local currencies as of the close of their primary exchange or market or as of the time a Fund calculates its net asset value (“NAV”), whichever is earlier. Foreign securities, currencies and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are then translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar, as provided by an approved Pricing Service or reporting agency. All assets denominated in foreign currencies will be converted into U.S. dollars using the applicable currency exchange rates as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. |
| |
| Debt securities, including corporate bonds, bank loans, commercial paper, and short-term debt instruments having a maturity of 60 days or less, are valued at the mean in accordance with prices supplied by an approved Pricing Service. Pricing Services may use various valuation methodologies such as the mean between the bid and the asked prices, matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. If a price is not available from a Pricing Service, the most recent quotation obtained from one or more broker-dealers known to follow the issue will be obtained. Quotations will be valued at the mean between the bid and the offer. Any discount or premium is accreted or amortized using the constant yield method until maturity. |
| |
| Money market funds are valued at cost. If cost does not represent current market value, the securities will be priced at fair value. |
| |
| Redeemable securities issued by open-end, registered investment companies are valued at the NAVs of such companies for purchase and/or redemption orders placed on that day. All exchange-traded funds are valued at the last reported sale price on the exchange on which the security is principally traded. |
| |
| If market quotations are not readily available, a security or other asset will be valued at its fair value as determined under fair value pricing procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. These fair value pricing procedures will also be used to price a security when corporate events, events in the securities market and/or world events cause the Adviser to believe that a security’s last sale price may not reflect its actual fair market value. The intended effect of using fair value pricing procedures is to ensure that a Fund is accurately priced. The Board of Trustees will regularly evaluate whether the Funds’ fair value pricing procedures continue to be appropriate in light of the specific circumstances of the Funds and the quality of prices obtained through the application of such procedures by the Trust’s valuation committee. |

| FASB Accounting Standards Codification, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” Topic 820 (“ASC 820”), establishes an authoritative definition of fair value and sets out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. ASC 820 requires an entity to evaluate certain factors to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in volume and level of activity for the security such that recent transactions and quoted prices may not be determinative of fair value and further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value. ASC 820 also requires enhanced disclosure regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value in those instances as well as expanded disclosure of valuation levels for major security types. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below: |
| Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. |
| | |
| Level 2 – | Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). |
| | |
| Level 3 – | Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
| The inputs or methodology 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 to value the Funds’ investments carried at fair value as of March 31, 2022: |

| (b) Foreign Securities and Currency Transactions |
| |
| Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. |
| |
| The Funds do not isolate the portion of the results of operations from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arising from sales of portfolio securities and sales and maturities of short-term securities are reported within realized gain (loss) on investments. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arising from changes in the values of investments in securities from fluctuations in exchange rates are reported within unrealized gain (loss) on investments. |
| |
| Investments in foreign securities entail certain risks. There may be a possibility of nationalization or expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation, political or financial instability, and diplomatic developments that could affect the value of a Fund’s investments in certain foreign countries. Since foreign securities normally are denominated and traded in foreign currencies, the value of a Fund’s assets may be affected favorably or unfavorably by currency exchange rates, currency exchange control regulations, foreign withholding taxes, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies. There may be less information publicly available about a foreign issuer than about a U.S. issuer, and foreign issuers are not generally subject to accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices comparable to those in the United States. The securities of some foreign issuers are less liquid and at times more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers. |
CROSSINGBRIDGE FUNDS

March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)
| (c) Federal Income Taxes |
| |
| The Funds intend to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and to make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to its shareholders sufficient to relieve it from all or substantially all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision has been provided. |
| |
| As of and during the period ended March 31, 2022, the Funds did not have liabilities for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period ended March 31, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. taxing authorities for the tax periods since the commencement of operations. |
| |
| (d) Distributions to Shareholders |
| |
| In general, the Mutual Funds will distribute any net investment income monthly and any net realized capital gains at least annually. The ETF will distribute any net investment income annually and any net realized capital gains at least annually. The Funds may make additional distributions if deemed to be desirable during the year. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short-term capital gains. All short-term capital gains are included in ordinary income for tax purposes. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Funds may also pay a special distribution at the end of the calendar year to comply with federal tax requirements. |
| |
| Treatment of income and capital gain distributions for federal income tax purposes may differ from GAAP, primarily due to timing differences in the recognition of income and gains and losses by the Funds. To the extent that these differences are attributable to permanent book and tax accounting differences, they are reclassified in the components of net assets. |
| |
| (e) Use of Estimates |
| |
| The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
| |
| (f) Share Valuation |
| |
| The NAV per share of a Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding for the Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the NYSE is closed for trading. |
| |
| (g) Allocation of Income, Expenses and Gains/Losses |
| |
| Income, expenses (other than those deemed attributable to a specific share class), and gains and losses of a Fund are allocated daily to each class of shares based |
CROSSINGBRIDGE FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)
| upon the ratio of net assets represented by each class as a percentage of the net assets of the Fund. Expenses deemed directly attributable to a class of shares are recorded by the specific class. Most Fund expenses are allocated by class based on relative net assets. Shareholder servicing fees are currently expensed up to 0.10% of average daily net assets of each Mutual Fund’s Institutional Class shares. Expenses associated with a specific fund in the Trust are charged to that fund. Common Trust expenses are typically allocated evenly between the funds of the Trust, or by other equitable means. |
| |
| (h) Other |
| |
| Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss from investment transactions using the specific identification method for the best tax relief order by comparing the original cost of the security lot sold with the net sale proceeds. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign interest, net of any reclaims, have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. Any discount or premium on securities purchased are accreted or amortized over the expected life of the respective securities using the constant yield method. |
| |
| (i) Loan Participation |
| |
| When purchasing participation interests in a loan, 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. A Fund may enter into unfunded loan commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding. Unfunded loan commitments represent a future obligation in full, even though a percentage of the notional loan amounts may not be utilized by the borrower. When investing in a loan participation agreement, 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 agreement and only upon receipt of payments by the lender from the borrower. A Fund may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit portion of a floating rate loan. In certain circumstances, a Fund may receive a penalty fee upon the prepayment of a floating rate loan by a borrower. Fees earned are recorded as a component of interest income or interest expense, respectively, on the Statements of Operations. |
| |
| (j) Derivatives |
| |
| The Funds may utilize derivative instruments such as options, swaps, futures, forward contracts and other instruments with similar characteristics to the extent that they are consistent with the Funds’ investment objectives and limitations. The use of derivatives may involve additional investment risks, including counterparty credit risk, i.e., the risk that a Fund may experience delay in obtaining financial recovery in the event a counterparty experiences financial difficulty. To mitigate this risk, the Adviser will seek to effect derivative transactions with only counterparties that they believe are creditworthy. |
| |
| The Funds have adopted authoritative standards regarding disclosure about derivatives and hedging activities and how they affect the Funds’ Statements of Assets |

| (k) LIBOR |
| |
| The London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) is an interest-rate average calculated from estimates submitted by the leading banks in London. LIBOR represents the rate which banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other. It is the primary interest rate benchmark for short-term interest rates around the world. The regulator of the LIBOR administrator phased out the use of LIBOR on December 31, 2021 such that the one-week and 2-month USD LIBOR settings will cease to be published or will no longer be representative. The remaining USD LIBOR settings will cease to be published or will no longer be representative after June 30, 2023. Because the usefulness of LIBOR as a reference rate could deteriorate during the transition from LIBOR to an alternative reference rate, these effects could occur prior to June 30, 2023. |
| |
| The expected discontinuation of LIBOR could have a significant impact on the financial markets, and may present a risk for certain market participants, including the risk that the transition from LIBOR to alternative interest rate benchmarks will not be orderly, will occur over various time periods or will have unintended consequences. |

| The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sale adjustments and tax treatment of Passive Foreign Investment Companies. |
| |
| At September 30, 2021, the Funds had no capital loss carryovers to be carried forward to offset future realized capital gains. |
| |
| GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year or period ended September 30, 2021, no reclassifications were made for permanent tax differences on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. |

(4) | Investment Adviser |
| |
| The Trust has an investment advisory agreement with the Adviser to furnish investment advisory services to the Mutual Funds. Under the terms of this agreement, the Trust, on behalf of the Mutual Funds, compensates the Adviser for its investment advisory services at the annual rate of 0.65% of each Mutual Fund’s respective average daily net assets. |
| |
| In addition, pursuant to a separate investment advisory agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the ETF, and the Adviser, the Adviser is responsible for managing the ETF in accordance with its investment objectives. For the services it provides the ETF, the ETF pays the Adviser a unitary management fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.80% of the ETF’s average daily net assets. Under this agreement, the Adviser has agreed to pay all expenses of the ETF except interest charges on any borrowings, dividends, and other expenses on securities sold short, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability, extraordinary expenses, distribution fees and expenses paid by the ETF under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, and the unified management fee payable to the Adviser. |
| |
| With respect to the Mutual Funds, the Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse a Fund’s other expenses at least through June 30, 2023 (January 31, 2023 for the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund) to the extent necessary to ensure that a Fund’s total operating expenses (exclusive of front-end or contingent deferred sales loads, distribution (12b-1) fees, shareholder servicing plan fees, taxes, leverage (i.e., any expense incurred in connection with borrowings made by a Fund), interest, brokerage commissions, expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, dividends or interest expenses on short positions, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary items) (the “Expense Limitation Cap”) does not exceed 0.80% of each Mutual Fund’s respective average daily net assets. |
| |
| Any such waiver or reimbursement is subject to later adjustment to allow the Adviser to recoup amounts waived or reimbursed within three years from the date such amount was waived or reimbursed, subject to the operating expense limitation |

| agreement, if such reimbursement will not cause a Mutual Fund’s expense ratio, after recoupment has been taken into account, to exceed the lesser of: (1) the Expense Limitation Cap in place at the time of the waiver and/or expense payment; or (2) the Expense Limitation Cap in place at the time of the recoupment. During the six months ended March 31, 2022, the Adviser recouped $80,411 of previously waived expenses in the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund. The following table shows the remaining waiver or reimbursed expenses for the Mutual Funds subject to potential recovery expiring: |

(5) | Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Plans |
| |
| The Trust has adopted a plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the “12b-1 Plan”), on behalf of the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund, which authorizes the Fund to pay Quasar Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) a distribution fee of 0.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets of the Fund’s Investor Class shares for services to prospective Fund shareholders and distribution of Fund shares. The Fund incurred no fees pursuant to the 12b-1 Plan during the year ended September 30, 2021 as the Investor Class was not operational during the year. |
| |
| The Mutual Funds have adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan to pay for shareholder support services from the applicable Fund’s assets pursuant to a Shareholder Servicing Agreement in an amount not to exceed 0.15% of the applicable Fund’s average daily net assets. Currently, the shareholder servicing fee authorized for each Mutual Fund is up to 0.10%; however, the fee may be increased up to 0.15% of a Fund’s daily net assets, at any time. Each Mutual Fund is responsible for paying a portion of shareholder servicing fees to each of the shareholder servicing agents who have written shareholder servicing agreements with the Fund, and perform shareholder servicing functions and maintenance of shareholder accounts on behalf of shareholders. The following table details the fees incurred for Institutional Class shares for the Mutual Funds pursuant to the Shareholder Servicing Plan during the six months ended March 31, 2022, as well as the fees owed as of March 31, 2022. |

| Shares of the CrossingBridge Pre-Merger SPAC ETF are listed and traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market, LLC (the “Exchange”). The ETF issues and redeems shares |
CROSSINGBRIDGE FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
March 31, 2022 (Unaudited)
| on a continuous basis at NAV only in large blocks of shares called “Creation Units.” Creation Units are to be issued and redeemed principally in kind for a basket of securities and a balancing cash amount. Shares generally will trade in the secondary market in amounts less than a Creation Unit at market prices that change throughout the day. Market prices for the shares may be different from their NAV. The NAV is determined as of the close of trading (generally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day the NYSE is open for trading. The NAV of the shares of the Fund will be equal to the ETF’s total assets minus the ETF’s total liabilities divided by the total number of shares outstanding. The NAV that is published will be rounded to the nearest cent; however, for purposes of determining the price of Creation Units, the NAV will be calculated to five decimal places. |
| |
| Only “Authorized Participants” may purchase or redeem shares directly from the ETF. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Most retail investors will not qualify as Authorized Participants or have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they will be unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the ETF. Rather, most retail investors will purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and will be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees. Securities received or delivered in connection with in-kind creates and redeems are valued as of the close of business on the effective date of the creation or redemption. |
| |
| Creation Unit Transaction Fee |
| Authorized Participants will be required to pay to the Custodian a fixed transaction fee (the “Creation Transaction Fee”) in connection with the issuance of Creation Units. The standard Creation Transaction Fee will be the same regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased by an investor on the applicable Business Day. The Creation Transaction Fee for the ETF is $300. |
| |
| An additional variable fee of up to a maximum of 2% of the value of the Creation Units subject to the transaction may be imposed for cash purchases, nonstandard orders, or partial purchase of Creation Units. For orders comprised entirely of cash, a variable fee of 0.03% of the value of the order will be charged by the ETF. The variable charge is primarily designed to cover additional costs (e.g., brokerage, taxes) involved with buying the securities with cash. The ETF may determine to not charge a variable fee on certain orders when the Adviser has determined that doing so is in the best interests of ETF shareholders. |
| |
| A creation unit will generally not be issued until the transfer of good title of the deposit securities to the ETF and the payment of any cash amounts have been completed. To the extent contemplated by the applicable participant agreement, Creation Units of the ETF will be issued to such authorized participant notwithstanding the fact that the ETF’s deposits have not been received in part or in whole, in reliance on the undertaking of the authorized participant to deliver the missing deposit securities as |

| soon as possible. If the ETF or its agents do not receive all of the deposit securities, or the required cash amounts, by such time, then the order may be deemed rejected and the authorized participant shall be liable to the ETF for losses, if any. |

| There were no purchases or sales of U.S. government securities in the Funds. |
| |
(10) | Beneficial Ownership |
| |
| The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a Fund creates a presumption of control of the Fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. At March 31, 2022, Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. held 43.45% and 83.38% of the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund and CrossingBridge Responsible Credit Fund, respectively. National Financial Services LLC held 91.86% of the CrossingBridge Ultra-Short Duration Fund at March 31, 2022. There were no beneficial shareholders in the CrossingBridge Pre-Merger SPAC ETF at March 31, 2022. |
| |
(11) | Line of Credit |
| |
| At March 31, 2022, the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund had a line of credit in the amount of the lesser of $15,000,000 or 33 1/3% of the fair value of unencumbered assets of the Fund, as defined, which matures on August 6, 2022. The unsecured line of credit is intended to provide short-term financing, if necessary, subject to certain restrictions, in connection with shareholder redemptions. The credit facility is with the Funds’ custodian, U.S. Bank, N.A. Interest will be accrued at the prime rate (3.50% as of March 31, 2022). During the six months ended March 31, 2022, the CrossingBridge Low Duration High Yield Fund did not utilize the line of credit. |

(13) | Recent Market Events |
| |
| U.S. and international markets have experienced significant periods of volatility in recent years and months due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors including the impact of COVID-19 as a global pandemic and related public health crisis, growth concerns in the U.S. and overseas, uncertainties regarding interest rates, rising inflation, trade tensions, and the threat of tariffs imposed by the U.S. and other countries. In particular, the global spread of COVID-19 has resulted in disruptions to business operations and supply chains, stress on the global healthcare system, growth concerns in the U.S. and overseas, staffing shortages and the inability to meet consumer demand, and widespread concern and uncertainty. The global recovery from COVID-19 is proceeding at slower than expected rates due to the emergence of variant strains and may last for an extended period of time. Health crises and related political, social and economic disruptions caused by the spread of COVID-19 may also exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries. As a result of continuing political tensions and armed conflicts, including the war between Ukraine and Russia, the U.S. and the European Union imposed sanctions on certain Russian individuals and companies, including certain financial institutions, and have limited certain exports and imports to and from Russia. The war has contributed to recent market volatility and may continue to do so. These developments, as well as other events, could result in further market volatility and negatively affect financial asset prices, the liquidity of certain securities and the normal operations of securities exchanges and other markets, despite government efforts to address market disruptions. Continuing market volatility as a result of recent market conditions or other events may have adverse effects on your account. |

Indemnifications
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. A Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
