Victory Funds Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholder,
What a difference a year makes. Not long ago, we were marveling at the longest-ever bull market in equities. Although the current market environment appears constructive and relatively calm (as of this writing), what has transpired over the past year has been nothing short of astounding.
In fact, the annual period ended June 30, 2020, has been the most unusual period for investors since the Global Financial Crisis or, perhaps, the Great Depression. We entered this year with mundane concerns of interest rates and global trade talks, but that all changed quickly in early 2020. The spread of COVID-19 throughout the United States was an unprecedented event that rendered virtually any economic forecast unreliable. In March, and seemingly overnight, the sentiment pendulum swung from risk-on to risk-off.
The global economy came to an all-stop and equities sold off sharply. Meanwhile, liquidity evaporated in many segments of the fixed-income market, especially higher-yielding credits and anything perceived to be higher risk, which caused credit spreads to widen and depressed prices.
Fortunately, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the "Fed") and other monetary authorities worldwide leapt into action — slashing interest rates, (re)starting quantitative easing and, in the case of the Fed, launching an array of programs to provide liquidity to stabilize fixed-income markets.
The U.S. government also stepped up to provide $2 trillion of fiscal stimulus in the form of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), which aims help toward corporations, small businesses, and individuals that have been affected by the abrupt economic stoppage.
All those steps ended the market's freefall, spurred a significant rally in equities, and helped tighten credit spreads across much of the fixed-income universe. In fact, by June 30, 2020, sentiment was nothing less than bullish and the broad market indexes had largely recovered losses from the first quarter. Through all this turmoil and volatility, the S&P 500® Index managed to deliver an annual return of approximately 7.5% for the 12-month period ended June 30, 2020. Meanwhile, the yield on 10-year U.S. Treasuries declined 144 basis points, reflecting both the Fed intervention and the uncertainties, ending June 30 at approximately 0.66%.
Looking ahead, the economy and markets remain unpredictable. For equities, investors should expect continued bouts of elevated volatility, which will likely be driven by reports on the virus, a possible vaccine, and the economic data. On the whole, however, we believe the tenor of the market is much improved from the depths of the crisis even as earnings estimates remain vague at best.
Credit markets, too, remain unpredictable, though they have stabilized markedly. A wide range of outcomes are conceivable over the next year, but continued monetary intervention and fiscal stimulus, coupled with a regional approach to economic shutdowns, may well prevent credit spreads from returning to the elevated levels of March.
2
Regardless, whatever is in store for markets, the investment philosophies and resolve of Victory Capital's various independent investment franchises remain steadfast. We believe that our collective investment talent and their actively managed portfolios will be able to manage risks and excel in an environment that often creates short-term pricing dislocations that benefit astute investors.
On the following pages, you will find information relating to your Victory Funds investment. If you have any questions, we encourage you to contact your financial advisor. If you invest with us directly, you may call (800) 539-3863, or visit our website at www.vcm.com.
My colleagues and I sincerely appreciate the confidence you have placed in the Victory Funds, and we value the opportunity to help meet your investment goals.

Victory Equity Long/Cash Funds
Victory US 500 Enhanced Volatility Wtd Index Fund
Portfolio Review
June 30, 2020 (Unaudited)
Portfolio Holdings:
(As a Percentage of Total Investments)
Victory US 500 Enhanced Volatility Wtd Index Fund (the "Fund") seeks to provide investment results that track the performance of the Nasdaq Victory US Large Cap 500 Long/Cash Volatility Weighted Index (the "Index") before fees and expenses.
The Fund returned 6.71% (Class A Shares at net asset value) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020. The Index returned 7.92% and the S&P 500® Index, a market cap-based index against which the performance of the Fund is also measured, returned 7.51% during the period. The difference in performance of the Fund and the Index was primarily due to the Fund's fees and expenses. Neither the Index nor the S&P 500® Index are investable products; therefore, fees and expenses do not apply.
The Index moves from equities to U.S. Treasury bills ("T-Bills") during periods of significant market decline ("Long/Cash" feature). The Long/Cash feature of the Index triggered and allocated to a 75% T-Bill position on March 2, 2020. The Index held that T-Bill position until April 1, 2020, at which time the T-Bill position went to 50% and has held that position through the end of the reporting period. Due to the large market downturn, which occurred while the Index held the T-Bill position, the Long/Cash trigger was the key driver of the Fund's outperformance (before fees) versus the S&P 500® Index for the fiscal year.
Additionally, underweights to the Energy and Financials sectors contributed to the Fund's performance relative to the S&P 500® Index, while its underweight positions in Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary detracted from the Fund's performance.

To obtain performance information current to the most recent month's end, please visit www.vcm.com.
The above expense ratios are from the Fund's prospectus dated November 1, 2019, as supplemented May 1, 2020.

Victory Market Neutral Income Fund
Portfolio Review
June 30, 2020 (Unaudited)
Portfolio Holdings:
(As a Percentage of Total Investments)
Victory Market Neutral Income Fund (the "Fund") seeks to provide investment results that achieve high current income.
The Fund returned 5.31% (Class A Shares at net asset value) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, outperforming its benchmark, the FTSE 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index (the "Index"), which returned 1.56%.
The Fund pursues its investment objective by engaging in a multi-strategy approach utilizing several distinct strategies. Four of those strategies involve buying the stocks of the Nasdaq Victory High Dividend Indexes and shorting a beta-adjusted equivalent amount of high correlating equity index futures against them. Together, these strategies are referred to as the "spread" strategies and cover the U.S. large cap, U.S. small cap, international developed, and emerging market asset classes in approximately equal dollar amounts.
The Fund's remaining strategy is designed to diversify its investments and its market risk exposure. This consists of holding a long position in Nasdaq-100® Index futures and a short position in a beta-adjusted equivalent amount of S&P 500® Index futures (the Nasdaq/S&P strategy).
The Fund's use of derivative strategies to hedge market risk and produce a steady stream of income can produce offsetting gains or losses depending on the market environment. During the fiscal year, the spread strategies collectively detracted from the Fund's performance, but were more than offset by gains in the Nasdaq/S&P strategy.

Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2020 |
1. Organization:
Victory Portfolios II (the "Trust") was organized on April 11, 2012 as a Delaware statutory trust as a successor to the "Compass EMP Funds Trust." The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company. The Trust is comprised of 24 funds, 22 of which are exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares, which are units of beneficial interest with no par value. Each Fund is classified as diversified under the 1940 Act.
The accompanying financial statements are those of the two following Funds (collectively, the "Funds" and individually, a "Fund").
Funds (Legal Name) | Funds (Short Name) | Investment Share Classes Offered | |||||||||
Victory US 500 Enhanced Volatility Wtd Index Fund | US 500 Enhanced Volatility Wtd Index Fund | Classes A, C and I | |||||||||
Victory Market Neutral Income Fund | Market Neutral Income Fund | Classes A, C and I |
Each class of shares of a Fund has substantially identical rights and privileges except with respect to sales charges, fees paid under distribution plans, expenses allocable exclusively to each class of shares, voting rights on matters solely affecting a single class of shares, and the exchange privilege of each class of shares.
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 with their vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the Funds expect that risk of loss to be remote.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in accordance 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 income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Funds follow the specialized accounting and reporting requirements under GAAP that are applicable to investment companies.
Investment Valuation:
The Funds record investments at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The valuation techniques described below maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. The inputs used for valuing the Funds' investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
• Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities or interest rates applicable to those securities, etc.)
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds' own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
46

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuation techniques are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with entering into those investments.
Portfolio securities listed or traded on securities exchanges, including ETFs, American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") and Rights, are valued at the closing price on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded, if available, or at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price. If there have been no sales for that day on the exchange or system, then a security is valued at the last available bid quotation on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded. In each of these situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or an exchange on which they are traded. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Options are generally valued at the last quoted sales price or, in the absence of a sale, at the mean between the current bid and ask prices. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments for which there are no such quotations, or for which quotations do not appear reliable, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board"). These valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, based on the observability of inputs used to determine the fair value.
In accordance with procedures adopted by the Board, fair value pricing may be used if events materially affecting the value of foreign securities occur between the time the exchange on which they are traded closes and the time the Funds' net asset values are calculated. The Market Neutral Income Fund uses a systematic valuation model, provided daily by an independent third party to fair value its international equity securities. To the extent this model is utilized, these valuations are considered as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
A summary of the valuations as of June 30, 2020, based upon the three levels defined above, is included in the table below while the breakdown, by category, of investments is disclosed on the Schedules of Portfolio Investments.

^ Futures Contracts are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the investment.
For the year ended June 30, 2020, there were no transfers in or out of the Level 3 fair value hierarchy.
Investment Companies:
The Funds may invest in portfolios of open-end investment companies. These investment companies value securities in their portfolios for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value by the methods established by the board of directors of the underlying funds.
Derivative Instruments:
Foreign Exchange Currency Contracts:
The Funds may enter into foreign exchange currency contracts to convert U.S. dollars to and from various foreign currencies. A foreign exchange currency contract is an obligation by a Fund to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date at a price (in U.S. dollars) set at the time of the contract. The Funds do not engage in "cross-currency" foreign exchange contracts (i.e., contracts to purchase or sell one foreign currency in exchange for another foreign currency). The Funds' foreign exchange currency contracts might be considered spot contracts (typically a contract of one week or less) or forward contracts (typically a contract term over one week). A spot contract is entered into for purposes of hedging against foreign currency fluctuations relating to a specific portfolio transaction, such as the delay between a security transaction trade date and settlement date. Forward contracts are entered into for purposes of hedging portfolio holdings or concentrations of such holdings. Each foreign exchange currency contract is adjusted daily by the prevailing spot or forward rate of the underlying currency, and any appreciation or depreciation is recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the contract settlement date, at which time the Fund records realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of a contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. A Fund could be exposed to risk if a counterparty is unable to meet the terms of a foreign exchange currency contract or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably. In addition, the use of foreign exchange currency contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the securities. As of June 30, 2020, the Funds had no open forward foreign exchange currency contracts.
Futures Contracts:
The Funds may enter into contracts for the future delivery of securities or foreign currencies and futures contracts based on a specific security, class of securities, foreign currency or an index, and purchase or sell options on any such futures contracts. A futures contract on a securities index is an agreement obligating either party to pay, and entitling the other party to receive, while the contract is outstanding, cash payments based on the level of a specified securities index. No physical delivery of
48
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
the underlying asset is made. A Fund may enter into futures contracts in an effort to hedge against market risks. The acquisition of put and call options on futures contracts will give the Fund the right (but not the obligation), for a specified price, to sell or to purchase the underlying futures contract, upon exercise of the option, at any time during the option period. Futures transactions involve brokerage costs and require the Fund to segregate assets to cover contracts that would require it to purchase securities or currencies. A good faith margin deposit, known as initial margin, of cash or government securities with a broker or custodian is required to initiate and maintain open positions in futures contracts. Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund based on the change in the market value of the position and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed out, at which time the gain or loss is realized. A Fund may lose the expected benefit of futures transactions if interest rates, exchange rates or securities prices change in an unanticipated manner. Such unanticipated changes may also result in lower overall performance than if the Fund had not entered into any futures transactions. In addition, the value of a Fund's futures positions may not prove to be perfectly or even highly correlated with the value of its portfolio securities or foreign currencies, limiting a Fund's ability to hedge effectively against interest rate, exchange rate and/or market risk and giving rise to additional risks. There is no assurance of liquidity in the secondary market for purposes of closing out futures positions. The collateral held by the Funds is presented on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities under Deposits with brokers for futures contracts.
As of June 30, 2020, the Funds entered into futures contracts primarily for the strategy of hedging or other purposes, including but not limited to, providing liquidity and equitizing cash.
Options Transactions:
The Funds may purchase or sell options to aid in hedging against equity price risk incurred in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. When a Fund writes a call option, an amount equal to the premium received is included as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option. If an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or if the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a written call option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized for the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from the sale are increased by the premium originally received. As a writer of an option, the Fund has no control over whether the option will be exercised and, as a result, retains the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
The Funds may purchase put and call options. Put options are purchased to hedge against a decline in the value of securities held in the Fund's portfolio. If such a decline occurs, the put options will permit the Fund to sell the securities underlying such options at the exercise price, or to close out the options at a profit. The premium paid for a put or call option plus any transaction costs will reduce the benefit, if any, realized by the Fund upon exercise of the option, and, unless the price of the underlying security rises or declines sufficiently, the option may expire worthless to the Fund. In addition, in the event that the price of the security in connection with which an option was purchased moves in a direction favorable to the Fund, the benefits realized by the Fund as a result of such favorable movement will be reduced by the amount of the premium paid for the option and related transaction costs. Written and purchased options are non-income producing securities. With purchased options, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since these options are exchange-traded. The collateral held by the Funds, if any, is presented on the Schedules of Portfolio Investments. During the year ended June 30, 2020, the Market Neutral Income Fund did not purchase or sell a material volume of options.
Offsetting of Financial Assets and Derivatives Assets:
The Funds are subject to various Master Netting Arrangements, which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. The Master Netting Arrangements allow the Funds to close out and net total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single agreement with a counterparty. The Master Netting Arrangements also specify collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Netting Arrangements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net
49
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
of existing collateral already in place) governed under the relevant Master Netting Arrangement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specified threshold depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Netting Arrangement.
The table below, as of June 30, 2020, discloses both gross information and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and instruments and transactions that are subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement as well as amounts related to collateral held at clearing brokers and counterparties.

All open derivative positions at year end are reflected on each respective Fund's Schedule of Portfolio Investments. The underlying face value of open derivative positions relative to the US 500 Enhanced Volatility Wtd Index Fund's net assets at year end is generally representative of the notional amount of open positions to net assets throughout the year. The volume associated with futures contracts in the Market Neutral Income Fund was 85% based on average monthly notional amounts in comparison to net assets during the year.
Investment Transactions and Related Income:
Changes in holdings of investments are accounted for no later than one business day following the trade date. For financial reporting purposes, however, investment transactions are accounted for on trade date on the last business day of the reporting period. Interest income is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued using the effective interest method which adjusts, where applicable, the amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are recorded on the identified cost basis.
Withholding taxes on interest, dividends and gains as a result of certain investments in ADRs by the Funds have been provided for in accordance with each investment's applicable country's tax rules and rates.
Securities Lending:
The Trust has entered into a Master Securities Lending Agreement ("MSLA") with Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank" or the "Agent"). Under the terms of the MSLA, the Funds may lend securities to certain broker-dealers and banks in exchange for collateral in the amount of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned or at least 105% of the value of non-U.S. securities loaned, marked-to-market daily. Any collateral shortfalls associated with increases in the valuation of the securities loaned are adjusted the next business day. The collateral can be received in the form of cash collateral and/or non-cash collateral. Non-cash collateral can include U.S. Government Securities, letters of credit and certificates of deposit. The cash collateral is invested in short-term instruments or cash equivalents, primarily open-end investment companies, as noted on the Funds' Schedules of Portfolio Investments. The Trust does not have effective control of the non-cash collateral and therefore it is not disclosed on the Funds' Schedules of Portfolio Investments. During the time portfolio securities are on loan, the borrower will pay the Funds any dividends or interest paid on such securities plus any fee negotiated between the parties to the lending agreement. The Funds also earn a return from the collateral. The Funds pay the Agent various fees in connection with the investment of cash collateral and fees based on the investment income received from securities lending activities. Securities lending income (net of these fees) is disclosed on the Statements of Operations. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the Funds could experience a delay in recovering their securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them.

Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
Securities lending transactions are entered into by a Fund under the MSLA, which permits the Fund, under certain circumstances such as an event of default, to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts receivable from the counterparty to create a net payment due to or from the Fund.
The following table is a summary of the Funds' securities lending transactions which are subject to offset under the MSLA as of June 30, 2020. These transactions are accounted for as secured borrowings with an overnight and continuous contractual maturity for cash collateral and greater than overnight and continuous contractual maturity for non-cash collateral.

Foreign Currency Translations:
The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities of a Fund denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates on the date of the transactions. The Funds do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are disclosed as Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investment securities and foreign currency translations on the Statements of Operations. Any realized gains or losses from these fluctuations are disclosed as Net realized gains (losses) from investment securities and foreign currency translations on the Statements of Operations.
Foreign Taxes:
The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes related to foreign income received (a portion of which may be reclaimable), capital gains on the sale of securities, and certain foreign currency transactions. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the Funds invest.
Distributions to Shareholders:
Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid quarterly for each Fund. Distributable net realized gains, if any, are declared and distributed at least annually from each Fund. The amounts of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains (collectively, distributions to shareholders) are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. To the extent these "book/tax" differences are permanent in nature (e.g., net operating loss and distribution reclassification), such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences (e.g., wash sales) do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends and distributions exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of capital. Net investment losses incurred by a Fund may be reclassified as an offset to capital on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
52
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
As of June 30, 2020, on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences, reclassification adjustments were as follows:
Total Distributable Earnings/(Loss) | Capital | ||||||||||
US 500 Enhanced Volatility Wtd Index Fund | $ | (859,419 | ) | $ | 859,419 |
Federal Income Taxes:
It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements. The Funds have a tax year end of June 30.
Management of the Funds has reviewed tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by all major tax jurisdictions, including federal (i.e., the last four tax years, which includes the current fiscal tax year end). Management believes that there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken.
Allocations:
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to the Fund, while expenses which are attributable to more than one fund in the Trust, or jointly with an affiliated trust, are allocated among the respective funds in the Trust and/or affiliated trust based upon net assets or another appropriate basis.
Income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses such as transfer agent fees, state registration fees, printing fees and 12b-1 fees), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets on the date income is earned or expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are incurred.
3. Purchases and Sales of Securities:
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding securities maturing less than one year from acquisition) for the year ended June 30, 2020 were as follows:
Purchases | Sales | ||||||||||
US 500 Enhanced Volatility Wtd Index Fund | $ | 36,946,441 | $ | 100,376,211 | |||||||
Market Neutral Income Fund | 235,951,887 | 148,110,112 |
For the year ended June 30, 2020, there were no purchases or sales of U.S. Government Securities.
4. Fees and Transactions with Affiliates and Related Parties:
Investment advisory services are provided to the Funds by Victory Capital Management Inc. ("VCM" or the "Adviser"), a New York corporation registered as an investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Adviser is a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Victory Capital Holdings, Inc., a publicly traded Delaware corporation and a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Victory Capital Operating, LLC.
Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is entitled to receive fees based on a percentage of the average daily net assets of each Fund. The rates at which the Adviser is paid by each Fund are included in the table below. The Adviser may use its resources to assist with the Funds' distribution and marketing expenses.

Market Neutral Income Fund | 0.60 | % |
53
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
VCM also serves as the Funds' administrator and fund accountant. Under an Administration and Fund Accounting Agreement, VCM is paid for its services an annual fee at a rate of 0.08% of the first $15 billion in average daily net assets of the Trust, Victory Variable Insurance Funds and Victory Portfolios (collectively, the "Victory Funds Complex"), 0.05% of the average daily net assets above $15 billion to $30 billion of the Victory Funds Complex and 0.04% of the average daily net assets over $30 billion of the Victory Funds Complex.
Citi Fund Services Ohio, Inc. ("Citi"), an affiliate of Citibank, acts as sub-administrator and sub-fund accountant to the Funds pursuant to a Sub-Administration and Sub-Fund Accounting Services Agreement between VCM and Citi. VCM pays Citi a fee for providing these services. The Funds reimburse VCM and Citi for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing these services and certain other expenses specifically allocated to the Funds under the Fund Administration, Servicing, and Accounting Agreement. Amounts paid by the Funds to reimburse VCM for expenses incurred during the year ended June 30, 2020, are reflected on the Statements of Operations as Sub-Administration fees.
Citibank acts as the custodian of the Funds' assets pursuant to the Global Custodial Services Agreement (the "Custody Agreement"). Citibank's responsibilities include safeguarding and controlling the Funds' cash and securities, handling the receipt and delivery of securities, and collecting interest and dividends on the Funds' investments. Pursuant to the Custody Agreement, Citibank also maintains original entry documents and books of record and general ledgers; posts cash receipts and disbursements; and records purchases and sales based upon communications from the Adviser. Citibank may, with the approval of a Fund and at its own expense, open and maintain a sub-custody account or accounts on behalf of a Fund, provided that it shall remain liable for the performance of all of its duties under the Custody Agreement.
FIS Investor Services, LLC ("FIS") serves as the Funds' transfer agent. Under the Transfer Agent Agreement, the Trust pays FIS a fee for its services and reimburses FIS for all of their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing these services.
The Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO") is an employee of the Adviser, which pays the compensation of the CCO and his support staff. The Trust has entered into an agreement to provide compliance services with the Adviser, pursuant to which the Adviser furnishes its compliance personnel, including the services of the CCO, and other resources reasonably necessary to provide the Trust with compliance oversight services related to the design, administration and oversight of a compliance program for the Trust in accordance with Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act. The Funds in the Victory Funds Complex, in aggregate, compensate the Adviser for these services.
The Victory Funds Complex pays an annual retainer to each Independent Trustee, plus an additional annual retainer to the Chairman of the Board. The aggregate amount of the fees and expenses of the Independent Trustees are allocated amongst all the funds in the Victory Funds Complex and are presented on the Statements of Operations.
Sidley Austin LLP provides legal services to the Trust.
Victory Capital Services, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as distributor for the continuous offering of the shares of the Fund pursuant to a Distribution Agreement between the Distributor and the Trust. Effective June 30, 2020, the Distributor's name was changed from Victory Capital Advisers, Inc.
Pursuant to the Distribution and Service Plans (the "Plans") adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Distributor may receive a monthly distribution and service fees, at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets for Class A Shares, and at an annual rate of up to 1.00% of the average daily net assets of Class C Shares of the Funds. The distribution and service fees paid to the Distributor may be used by the Distributor to pay for activities primarily intended to result in the sale of Class A or Class C Shares of the Funds.
The Plans are characterized as reimbursement plans since the distribution fees will be paid to the Distributor as reimbursement for, or in anticipation of, expenses incurred for distribution-related activity. If the aggregate payments received by the Distributor for a particular class of shares of the Funds in any fiscal year exceed the expenditures made by the Distributor in that year pursuant to the
54
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
Plans, the Distributor will reimburse the Funds for the amount of the excess. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, the Distributor reimbursed $3,750 to the US 500 Enhanced Volatility Wtd Index Fund and $62,750 to the Market Neutral Income Fund.
In addition, the Distributor is entitled to receive commission on sales of Class A Shares of the Funds. For the year ended June 30, 2020, the Distributor received approximately $3,479 from commissions earned on sales of Class A Shares. A $15 fee may be charged for redemptions made by wire. The redemption fee is paid directly to and retained by the Funds, and is designed to deter excessive short-term trading and to offset brokerage commissions, market impact and other costs that may be associated with short- term money movement in and out of the Funds.
The Adviser has entered into expense limitation agreements with certain Funds. Under the terms of the agreements, the Adviser has agreed to waive fees or reimburse certain expenses to the extent that ordinary operating expenses incurred by certain classes of a Fund in any fiscal year exceed the expense limit for such classes of the Fund. Such excess amounts will be the liability of the Adviser. Interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with GAAP, and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of a Fund's business are excluded from the expense limits. As of June 30, 2020, the expense limits (excluding voluntary waivers) are as follows:
In effect July 1, 2019 until October 31, 2020 | |||||||||||||||
Class A Shares | Class C Shares | Class I Shares | |||||||||||||

Market Neutral Income Fund | 0.75 | % | 1.50 | % | 0.40 | % |
The Funds have agreed to repay fees and expenses that were waived or reimbursed by the Adviser for a period up to three fiscal years after such waiver or reimbursement was made to the extent such payments or repayments would not cause the expenses of a class to exceed the original expense limitation in place at the time of the waiver or reimbursement or any expense limitation agreement in place at the time of repayment. Amounts repaid to the Adviser during the year ended June 30, 2020, if any, are reflected on the Statements of Operations as Recoupment of prior expenses waived/reimbursed by Adviser.
As of June 30, 2020, the following amounts are available to be repaid to the Adviser.

The Adviser may voluntarily waive or reimburse additional fees to assist the Funds in maintaining competitive expense ratios. Voluntary waivers and reimbursements applicable to the Funds are not available to be recouped at a future time. There were no voluntary waivers or reimbursements for the year ended June 30, 2020.
Certain officers and/or interested trustees of the Funds are also officers and/or employees of the Adviser, Administrator, Fund Accountant, Sub-Administrator, Sub-Fund Accountant, and Legal Counsel.
5. Risks:
Each Fund may be subject to other risks in addition to these identified risks.
An investment in the Funds' shares represents an indirect investment in the securities owned by the Funds, some of which will be traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter markets. The value of the securities in which the Funds invest, like other market investments, may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. The value of the securities in which the Funds invest may affect the value of the Funds' shares. An investment in the Funds' shares at any point in time may be worth less than the original investment, even after taking into account the reinvestment of the Funds' distributions.

The Market Neutral Income Fund invests in securities of foreign issuers in various countries. Investing on an international basis involves certain risks not involved in domestic investments including the risk of nationalization or expropriation of assets, imposition of currency exchange controls or restrictions on the repatriation of foreign currency, confiscatory taxation, political or financial instability and diplomatic developments, which could affect the value of the Fund's investments in certain foreign countries. Governments of many countries have exercised and continue to exercise substantial influence over many aspects of the private sector through the ownership or control of many companies, including some of the largest in these countries. As a result, government actions in the future could have a significant effect on economic conditions which may adversely affect prices of certain portfolio securities. There is also generally less government supervision and regulation of stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies than in the United States. Dividends or interest on, or proceeds from the sale of, foreign securities may be subject to foreign withholding taxes, and special U.S. tax considerations may apply. Moreover, foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resource self-sufficiency and balance of payments position. The Schedule of Portfolio Investments includes information on each Fund's holdings, including industry and/or geographic composition, as relevant.
The Funds will be subject to credit risk with respect to the amount each expects to receive from counterparties for financial instruments entered into by the Funds. The Funds may be negatively impacted if a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties. The Funds may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding and the Funds may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances. The Funds typically enter into transactions with counterparties whose credit ratings are investment grade, as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, judged by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.
An outbreak of respiratory disease called COVID-19 was first detected in China in December 2019 and subsequently spread internationally. The transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread have resulted in international, national and local border closings and other significant travel restrictions and disruptions, significant disruptions to business operations, supply chains and consumer activity, significant challenges in healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines and general concern and uncertainty. These negative impacts have caused significant volatility and declines in global financial markets, which have caused losses for Fund investors during and subsequent to period end. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may be short term or may last for an extended period of time, and in either case could result in a substantial economic downturn or recession. Public health crises may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, economic, market and financial risks. The extent of the impact to the financial performance of the Funds' investments will depend on future developments, including (i) the duration and spread of the outbreak, (ii) the restrictions and advisories, (iii) the effects on the financial markets, and (iv) the effects on the economy overall, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
6. Borrowing and Interfund Lending:
Line of Credit:
For the year ended June 30, 2020, the Victory Funds Complex and the USAA Mutual Funds Complex (another series of mutual funds managed by the Adviser) participated in a short-term demand note "Line of Credit" with Citibank. The Line of Credit agreement with Citibank was renewed on June 29, 2020 with a termination date of June 28, 2021. Under the agreement with Citibank, the Victory Funds Complex and USAA Mutual Funds Complex, combined, may borrow up to $600 million, of which $300 million is committed and $300 million is uncommitted. $40 million of the Line of Credit is reserved for use by the Victory Floating Rate Fund (herein, the "Fund"), another series of the Victory Funds Complex, with that Fund paying the related commitment fees for that amount. The purpose of the agreement is to meet temporary or emergency cash needs. For the year ended June 30, 2020, Citibank received an annual commitment fee of 0.15% on $300 million for providing the Line of Credit. For the year ended June 30, 2020, Citibank earned approximately $450 thousand in commitment fees from the combined Victory Funds Complex and USAA Mutual Funds Complex. Each fund in the Victory Funds
56
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
Complex pays a pro-rata portion of the commitment fees plus any interest (one month LIBOR plus one percent) on amounts borrowed. Effective June 29, 2020, under an amended Line of Credit agreement, Citibank will also receive an annual upfront fee of 0.10% on the $300 million committed line of credit. Each fund in the Victory Funds Complex will pay a pro-rata portion of the upfront fee. Interest charged to each Fund during the period, if applicable, is presented on the Statements of Operations under Line of credit fees.
The Funds did not utilize the Line of Credit during the year ended June 30, 2020.
Interfund Lending:
The Trust and Adviser rely on an exemptive order granted by the SEC in March 2017 (the "Order"), permitting the establishment and operation of an Interfund Lending Facility (the "Facility"). The Facility allows each Fund to directly borrow money from or lend money to any other Victory Fund relying upon the Order at rates beneficial to both the borrowing and lending funds. Advances under the Facility are allowed for temporary or emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securities, and are subject to each Fund's borrowing restrictions. The interfund loan rate is determined, as specified in the Order, by averaging the current repurchase agreement rate and the current bank loan rate. As a Borrower, interest charged to each Fund during the period, as applicable, is presented on the Statements of Operations under Interest expense on interfund lending. As a Lender, interest earned by each Fund during the period, if applicable, is presented on the Statements of Operations under Interfund lending income.
The average borrowing for the days outstanding and average interest rate for each Fund during the year ended June 30, 2020 were as follows:
Borrower or Lender | Amount Outstanding at June 30, 2020 | Average Borrowing | Days Borrowing Outstanding | Average Interest Rate* | Maximum Borrowing During the Period | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Market Neutral Income Fund | Borrower | $ | — | $ | 5,953,667 | 6 | 0.96 | % | $ | 8,132,000 |
* For the year ended June 30, 2020, based on the number of days borrowings were outstanding.
7. Federal Income Tax Information:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of Victory Portfolios II
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of portfolio investments, of Victory US 500 Enhanced Volatility Wtd Index Fund and Victory Market Neutral Income Fund (the "Funds"), each a series of Victory Portfolios II, as of June 30, 2020, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of June 30, 2020, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2020, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Proxy Voting and Portfolio Holdings Information
Proxy Voting:
Information regarding the policies and procedures each Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available without charge, upon request, by calling 800-539-3863. The information is also included in the Funds' Statement of Additional Information, which is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Information relating to how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve months ended June 30 is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Availability of Schedules of Portfolio Investments:
The Trust files a complete list of Schedules of Portfolio Investments with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-PORT. Forms N-PORT are available on the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov.
Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Funds, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. These examples are 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 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 January 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020.
The Actual Expense figures in the table below provide 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 "Actual Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
The Hypothetical Expense figures in the table below provide 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. 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.

Liquidity Risk Management Program:
The Victory Funds have adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program (the "LRMP") as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Act. The LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk, taking into consideration each Fund's investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed market conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other liquidity management tools such as available funding sources including the Victory Funds Complex Interfund Lending Facility and Line of Credit (discussed in the Notes to Financial Statements). The Board approved the appointment of VCM as the administrator of the LRMP. At an in-person meeting held on February 20, 2020, VCM provided an oral and written report to the Trustees on the operation and effectiveness of the LRMP during the previous year.
VCM manages liquidity risks associated with the Funds' investments by monitoring, among other things, cash and cash equivalents, any use of derivatives, the concentration of investments, the appropriateness of each Fund's investment strategy, and by classifying every fund investment as either highly liquid, moderately liquid, less liquid or illiquid on at least a monthly basis. To assist with the classification of Fund investments, VCM has retained a third-party provider of liquidity evaluation services. This provider determines preliminary liquidity classifications for all portfolio holdings based upon portfolio-level data and certain assumptions provided by VCM. VCM reviews the preliminary liquidity classifications and, when appropriate, considers other information including input from the Funds' portfolio managers (including the portfolio managers employed by any investment sub-advisers) in determining final liquidity classifications.
The report from VCM concluded that the Funds did not experience any significant liquidity challenges during the covered period, and the Funds' LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage its liquidity risk. The report also concluded that the LRMP continues to operate adequately and effectively to enable VCM to oversee and manage liquidity risk and ensure each Fund is able to meet redemption requests without significant dilution to the remaining investors' interest in each Fund. During the review period, each Fund's portfolio consisted primarily of highly liquid investments, which are defined as cash and any investments reasonably expected to be converted to cash in current market conditions in three business days or less without significantly changing the market value of the investment. Therefore, the Funds have not adopted a Highly Liquid Investment Minimum. The Funds' investments were below the limitation on illiquid investments during the review period. Additionally, VCM indicated that no events occurred that would require the filing of Form N-LIQUID and recommended no material changes to the LRMP.

Victory Funds Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholder,
What a difference a year makes. Not long ago, we were marveling at the longest-ever bull market in equities. Although the current market environment appears constructive and relatively calm (as of this writing), what has transpired over the past year has been nothing short of astounding.
In fact, the annual period ended June 30, 2020, has been the most unusual period for investors since the Global Financial Crisis or, perhaps, the Great Depression. We entered this year with mundane concerns of interest rates and global trade talks, but that all changed quickly in early 2020. The spread of COVID-19 throughout the United States was an unprecedented event that rendered virtually any economic forecast unreliable. In March, and seemingly overnight, the sentiment pendulum swung from risk-on to risk-off.
The global economy came to an all-stop and equities sold off sharply. Meanwhile, liquidity evaporated in many segments of the fixed-income market, especially higher-yielding credits and anything perceived to be higher risk, which caused credit spreads to widen and depressed prices.
Fortunately, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the "Fed") and other monetary authorities worldwide leapt into action — slashing interest rates, (re)starting quantitative easing and, in the case of the Fed, launching an array of programs to provide liquidity to stabilize fixed-income markets.
The U.S. government also stepped up to provide $2 trillion of fiscal stimulus in the form of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), which aims help toward corporations, small businesses, and individuals that have been affected by the abrupt economic stoppage.
All those steps ended the market's freefall, spurred a significant rally in equities, and helped tighten credit spreads across much of the fixed-income universe. In fact, by June 30, 2020, sentiment was nothing less than bullish and the broad market indexes had largely recovered losses from the first quarter. Through all this turmoil and volatility, the S&P 500® Index managed to deliver an annual return of approximately 7.5% for the 12-month period ended June 30, 2020. Meanwhile, the yield on 10-year U.S. Treasuries declined 144 basis points, reflecting both the Fed intervention and the uncertainties, ending June 30 at approximately 0.66%.
Looking ahead, the economy and markets remain unpredictable. For equities, investors should expect continued bouts of elevated volatility, which will likely be driven by reports on the virus, a possible vaccine, and the economic data. On the whole, however, the tenor of the market is much improved from the depths of the crisis even as earnings estimates remain vague at best.
Credit markets, too, remain unpredictable, though they have stabilized markedly. A wide range of outcomes are conceivable over the next year, but continued monetary intervention and fiscal stimulus, coupled with a regional approach to economic shutdowns, may well prevent credit spreads from returning to the elevated levels of March.
5
Regardless, whatever is in store for markets, you can be certain that the investment philosophies and resolve of Victory Capital's various independent investment franchises remain steadfast. We believe that our collective investment talent and their passively managed portfolios will be able to manage risks and excel in an environment that often creates short-term pricing dislocations that benefit astute investors.
On the following pages, you will find information relating to your Victory Funds investment. If you have any questions, we encourage you to contact your financial advisor. If you invest with us directly, you may call (800) 539-3863, or visit our website at www.vcm.com.
My colleagues and I sincerely appreciate the confidence you have placed in the Victory Funds, and we value the opportunity to help meet your investment goals.

VictoryShares US 500 Volatility Wtd ETF
Portfolio Review
June 30, 2020 (Unaudited)
VictoryShares US 500 Volatility Wtd ETF (the "Fund") seeks to provide investment results that track the performance of the Nasdaq Victory US Large Cap 500 Volatility Weighted Index (the "Index") before fees and expenses.
The Fund returned -2.12% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, compared to the Index's return of -1.82%. The Fund underperformed the S&P 500® Index, a market cap-based index against which the performance of the Fund is also measured, which returned 7.51% during the period.
Over the reporting period, much of the Fund's underperformance relative to the S&P 500® Index was driven by its underweight positions in the largest market cap names within the index. The well-known FAANG+M stocks, comprised of Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Google, and Microsoft, combined to make up over 22% of the S&P 500® Index and contributed a positive 8.37% to that index's return. Within the Fund, FAANG+M stocks made up 1.49% of the portfolio and contributed 0.51% to its return.
From a sector perspective, the Fund's underweight positions in Energy and Real Estate, along with positive stock selection within Health Care, contributed positively to the Fund's performance relative to the Index. An underweight position to Information Technology and an overweight position to Financials detracted from relative performance. Stock selection within Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary also weighed on relative performance over the reporting period.

The Fund returned -12.78% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 compared to the Index's return of -12.62%. The Russell 1000® Value Index, a market cap-based index against which the performance of the Fund is also measured, returned -8.84% during the period.
Stock selection within the Industrials sector, along with an underweight selection to the Real Estate sector, contributed positively to Fund performance relative to the Russell 1000® Value Index over the reporting period. Conversely, stock selection within the Utilities and the Consumer Discretionary sectors detracted from the Fund's relative performance.
The primary driver of the Fund's underperformance relative to the Index was the lackluster performance of high-dividend yielding stocks compared to low-dividend yielding stocks. The highest-yielding quartile of the Russell 1000® Value Index was down -15.24% over the reporting period versus -3.75% for the lowest-dividend yielding quartile. The Fund selects the 100 highest-dividend yielding stocks within that index.

The Fund returned 7.49% over the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, compared to the Index's return of 7.92%. The Fund underperformed the S&P 500® Index, a market cap-based index against which the performance of the Fund is also measured, which returned 7.51% during the period.
The Index moves from equities to U.S. Treasury bills ("T-Bills") during periods of significant market decline ("Long/Cash" feature). The Long/Cash feature of the Index triggered and allocated to a 75% T-Bill position on March 2, 2020. The Index held that T-Bill position until April 1, 2020, at which time the T-Bill position went to 50% and held that position through the end of the reporting period. Due to the large market downturn, which occurred while the Index held the T-Bill position, the Long/Cash trigger was the key driver of the Fund's outperformance (before fees) versus the S&P 500® Index for the fiscal year.
The Fund's underweight positions in the Energy and Financials sectors contributed positively to the Fund's performance relative to the S&P 500® Index, while underweight positions in Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary detracted.

VictoryShares Developed Enhanced Volatility Wtd ETF
Portfolio Review
June 30, 2020 (Unaudited)
VictoryShares Developed Enhanced Volatility Wtd ETF (the "Fund") seeks to provide investment results that track the performance of the Nasdaq Victory International 500 Long/Cash Volatility Weighted Index (the "Index") before fees and expenses.
The Fund returned -14.55% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, compared to the Index's return of -14.14%. The MSCI EAFE Index, a market cap-based index against which the performance of the Fund is also measured, returned -5.13% during the period.
The Index moves from equities to U.S. Treasury bills ("T-Bills") during periods of significant market decline ("Long/Cash" feature). The Long/Cash feature of the Index narrowly missed triggering in February following the large market downturn. The Index went on to trigger in late March, allocating to a 50% T-Bill position on April 1, 2020. The Index held the 50% T-Bill position through the end of the reporting period. The Fund's allocation to T-Bills while the market mounted a significant comeback was the key driver of underperformance relative to the MSCI EAFE Index for the fiscal year.
The Fund's underweight position in the Energy sector, along with stock selection in the Financials sector, contributed positively to relative Fund performance over the reporting period. Negative stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary sector, along with an underweight to the Information Technology sector, detracted from relative Fund performance.

1. Organization:
Victory Portfolios II (the "Trust") was organized on April 11, 2012 as a Delaware statutory trust as a successor to a company named "Compass EMP Funds Trust." The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company. The Trust is comprised of 24 funds, 22 of which are exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares, which are units of beneficial interest with no par value. Each Fund is classified as diversified under the 1940 Act.
The accompanying financial statements are those of the following 14 Funds (collectively, the "Funds" and individually, a "Fund").

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 with their vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the Funds expect that risk of loss to be remote.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
Shares of the Funds are listed and traded on Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC. (the "Exchange"). The Funds issue and redeem shares of a Fund ("Shares") at net asset value ("NAV") only in aggregations of 50,000 Shares (each a "Creation Unit"). Creation Units are issued and redeemed in exchange for a basket of securities included in the respective Fund's Index (the "Deposit Securities"), and/or with the deposit of a specified cash payment (the "Cash Component"), plus a transaction fee. Shares trade on the Exchange at market prices that may be below, at, or above NAV. Shares of a Fund may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions ("Authorized Participants"). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Only Authorized Participants may purchase or redeem the shares directly from a Fund. In addition, shares may be issued in advance of receipt of Deposit Securities subject to various conditions, including a requirement to maintain on deposit with the Trust cash equal to up to 105% of the market value of the missing Deposit Securities. In each instance
196
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
of such cash creations or redemptions, transaction fees may be imposed and may be higher than the transaction fees associated with in-kind creations or redemptions.
Each Fund may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. Shares of each Fund have equal rights and privileges. A purchase (i.e., creation) transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transactional costs associated with the purchase of Creation Units. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units. Variable fees received by each Fund are displayed in the Capital Share Transaction section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets as an increase to Capital.
The Transaction Fees for each Fund are listed below:

* As a percentage of the amount invested.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in accordance 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 income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Funds follow the specialized accounting and reporting requirements under GAAP that are applicable to investment companies.
Investment Valuation:
The Funds record investments at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The valuation techniques described below maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. The inputs used for valuing the Funds' investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
• Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities or interest rates applicable to those securities, etc.)
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds' own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
197
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuation techniques are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with entering into those investments.
Portfolio securities listed or traded on securities exchanges, including American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") and Rights, are valued at the closing price on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded, if available, or at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price. If there have been no sales for that day on the exchange or system, then a security is valued at the last available bid quotation on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded. In each of these situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or an exchange on which they are traded. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments for which there are no such quotations, or for which quotations do not appear reliable, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board"). These valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, based on the observability of inputs used to determine the fair value.
A summary of the valuations as of June 30, 2020, based upon the three levels defined above, is included in the table below while the breakdown, by category, of investments is disclosed on the Schedules of Portfolio Investments.

^ Futures Contracts are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the investment.
For the year ended June 30, 2020, there were no transfers in or out of the Level 3 fair value hierarchy.
Real Estate Investment Trusts ("REITs"):
The Funds may invest in REITs, which report information on the source of their distributions annually. REITs are pooled investment vehicles that invest primarily in income-producing real estate or real-estate related loans or interests (such as mortgages). Certain distributions received from REITs during the year are recorded as realized gains or return of capital as estimated by the Funds or when such information becomes known.
Investment Companies:
The Funds may invest in portfolios of open-end investment companies. These investment companies value securities in their portfolios for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value by the methods established by the board of directors of the underlying funds.
Derivative Instruments:
Foreign Exchange Currency Contracts:
The Developed Enhanced Volatility Wtd ETF, International Volatility Wtd ETF, International High Div Volatility Wtd ETF and Emerging Market Volatility Wtd ETF may enter into foreign exchange currency contracts to convert U.S. dollars to and from various foreign currencies. A foreign exchange currency contract is an obligation by a Fund to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date at a price (in U.S. dollars) set at the time of the contract. The Funds do not engage in "cross-currency" foreign exchange contracts (i.e., contracts to purchase or sell one foreign currency in exchange for another foreign currency). The Funds' foreign exchange currency contracts might be considered spot contracts (typically a contract of one week or less) or forward contracts (typically a contract term over one week). A spot contract is entered into for purposes of hedging against foreign currency fluctuations relating to a specific portfolio transaction, such as the delay between a security transaction trade date and settlement date. Forward contracts are entered into for purposes of hedging portfolio holdings or concentrations of such holdings. The Developed Enhanced Volatility Wtd ETF, International Volatility Wtd ETF, Emerging Market Volatility Wtd ETF and International High Div Volatility Wtd ETF enter into
201
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
foreign exchange currency contracts solely for spot or forward hedging purposes, and not for speculative purposes (i.e., the Funds do not enter into such contracts solely for the purpose of earning foreign currency gains). Each foreign exchange currency contract is adjusted daily by the prevailing spot or forward rate of the underlying currency, and any appreciation or depreciation is recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the contract settlement date, at which time the Fund records realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of a contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. A Fund could be exposed to risk if a counterparty is unable to meet the terms of a foreign exchange currency contract or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably. In addition, the use of foreign exchange currency contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the securities. As of June 30, 2020, the Funds had no open forward foreign exchange currency contracts.
Futures Contracts:
The Funds may enter into contracts for the future delivery of securities or foreign currencies and futures contracts based on a specific security, class of securities, foreign currency or an index, and purchase or sell options on any such futures contracts. A futures contract on a securities index is an agreement obligating either party to pay, and entitling the other party to receive, while the contract is outstanding, cash payments based on the level of a specified securities index. No physical delivery of the underlying asset is made. A Fund may enter into futures contracts in an effort to hedge against market risks. The acquisition of put and call options on futures contracts will give the Fund the right (but not the obligation), for a specified price, to sell or to purchase the underlying futures contract, upon exercise of the option, at any time during the option period. Futures transactions involve brokerage costs and require the Fund to segregate assets to cover contracts that would require it to purchase securities or currencies. A good faith margin deposit, known as initial margin, of cash or government securities with a broker or custodian is required to initiate and maintain open positions in futures contracts. Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund based on the change in the market value of the position and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed out, at which time the gain or loss is realized. A Fund may lose the expected benefit of futures transactions if interest rates, exchange rates or securities prices change in an unanticipated manner. Such unanticipated changes may also result in lower overall performance than if the Fund had not entered into any futures transactions. In addition, the value of a Fund's futures positions may not prove to be perfectly or even highly correlated with the value of its portfolio securities or foreign currencies, limiting a Fund's ability to hedge effectively against interest rate, exchange rate and/or market risk and giving rise to additional risks. There is no assurance of liquidity in the secondary market for purposes of closing out futures positions. The collateral held by the Funds is presented on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities under Deposits with broker for futures contracts.
As of June 30, 2020, the Funds entered into futures contracts primarily for the strategy of hedging or other purposes, including but not limited to, providing liquidity and equitizing cash.
Offsetting of Financial Assets and Derivatives Assets:
The Funds are subject to various Master Netting Arrangements, which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. The Master Netting Arrangements allow the Funds to close out and net total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single agreement with a counterparty. The Master Netting Arrangements also specify collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Netting Arrangements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net of existing collateral already in place) governed under the relevant Master Netting Arrangement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specified threshold depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Netting Arrangement.

All open derivative positions at year end are reflected on each respective Fund's Schedule of Portfolio Investments. The underlying face value of open derivative positions relative to each Fund's net assets at year end is generally representative of the notional amount of open positions to net assets throughout the year.
Investment Transactions and Related Income:
Changes in holdings of investments are accounted for no later than one business day following the trade date. For financial reporting purposes, however, investment transactions are accounted for on trade date on the last business day of the reporting period. Interest income is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued using the effective interest method which adjusts, where applicable, the amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are recorded on the identified cost basis.
Withholding taxes on interest, dividends and gains as a result of certain investments in ADRs by the Funds have been provided for in accordance with each investment's applicable country's tax rules and rates.
Securities Lending:
The Trust has entered into a Master Securities Lending Agreement ("MSLA") with Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank" or the "Agent"). Under the terms of the MSLA, the Funds may lend securities to certain broker-dealers and banks in exchange for collateral in the amount of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned or at least 105% of the value of non-U.S. securities loaned, marked-to-market daily. Any collateral shortfalls associated with increases in the valuation of the securities loaned are adjusted the next business day. The collateral can be received in the form of cash collateral and/or non-cash collateral. Non-cash collateral can include U.S. Government Securities, letters of credit and certificates of deposit. The cash collateral is invested in short-term instruments or cash equivalents, primarily open-end investment companies, as noted on the Funds' Schedules of Portfolio Investments. The Trust does not have effective control of the non-cash collateral and therefore it is not disclosed on the Funds' Schedules of Portfolio Investments. During the time portfolio securities are on loan, the borrower will pay the Funds any dividends or interest paid on such securities plus any fee negotiated between the parties to the lending agreement. The Funds also earn a return from the collateral. The Funds pay the Agent various fees in connection with the investment of cash collateral and fees based on the investment income received from securities lending activities. Securities lending income (net of these fees) is disclosed on the Statements of Operations. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the Funds could experience a delay in recovering their securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them.
Securities lending transactions are entered into by a Fund under the MSLA, which permits the Fund, under certain circumstances such as an event of default, to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts receivable from the counterparty to create a net payment due to or from the Fund.
The following table is a summary of the Funds' securities lending transactions which are subject to offset under the MSLA as of June 30, 2020. These transactions are accounted for as secured borrowings with an overnight and continuous contractual maturity for cash collateral and greater than overnight and continuous contractual maturity for non-cash collateral.

* Collateral received in excess of the market value of securities on loan is not presented in this table.
The total cash collateral received by each Fund is disclosed in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Foreign Currency Translations:
The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities of a Fund denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates on the date of the transactions. The Funds do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are disclosed as Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investment securities and foreign currency translations on the Statements of Operations. Any realized gains or losses from these fluctuations, including foreign currency arising from in-kind redemptions, are disclosed as Net realized gains (losses) from investment securities and foreign currency translations on the Statements of Operations.
Foreign Taxes:
The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes related to foreign income received (a portion of which may be reclaimable), capital gains on the sale of securities, and certain foreign currency transactions. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the Funds invest.
Distributions to Shareholders:
Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid monthly for the Funds. Distributable net realized gains, if any, are declared and distributed at least annually from each Fund. The amounts of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains (collectively, distributions to shareholders) are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which
206
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
may differ from GAAP. To the extent these "book/tax" differences are permanent in nature (e.g., net operating loss and distribution reclassification), such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences (e.g., wash sales) do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends and distributions exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of capital. Net investment losses incurred by a Fund may be reclassified as an offset to capital on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
As of June 30, 2020, on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences, reclassification adjustments were as follows:

Federal Income Taxes:
It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements. The Funds have a tax year end of June 30.
Management of the Funds has reviewed tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by all major tax jurisdictions, including federal (i.e., the last four tax years, which includes the current fiscal tax year end). Management believes that there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken.
Allocations:
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to the Fund, while expenses which are attributable to more than one fund in the Trust, or jointly with an affiliated trust, are allocated among the respective funds in the Trust and/or affiliated trust based upon net assets or another appropriate basis.
3. Purchases and Sales of Securities:
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding securities maturing less than one year from acquisition) and in-kind transactions associated with purchases and sales for the year ended June 30, 2020 were as follows:

5. Risks:
Each Fund may be subject to other risks in addition to these identified risks.
An investment in the Funds' Shares represents an indirect investment in the securities owned by the Funds, some of which will be traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter markets. The value of the securities in which the Funds invest, like other market investments, may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. The value of the securities in which the Funds invest may affect the value of the Funds' Shares. An investment in the Funds' Shares at any point in time may be worth less than the original investment, even after taking into account the reinvestment of the Funds' distributions.
The Developed Enhanced Volatility Wtd ETF, International Volatility Wtd ETF, Emerging Market Volatility Wtd ETF, International High Div Volatility Wtd ETF and Emerging Market High Div Volatility Wtd ETF invest in securities of foreign issuers in various countries. Investing on an international basis involves certain risks not involved in domestic investments including the risk of nationalization or expropriation of assets, imposition of currency exchange controls or restrictions on the repatriation of foreign currency, confiscatory taxation, political or financial instability and diplomatic developments, which could affect the value of a Fund's investments in certain foreign countries. Governments of many countries have exercised and continue to exercise substantial influence over many aspects of the private sector through the ownership or control of many companies, including some of the largest in these countries. As a result, government actions in the future could have a significant effect on economic conditions which may adversely affect prices of certain portfolio securities. There is also generally less government supervision and regulation of stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies than in the U.S. Dividends or interest on, or proceeds from the sale of, foreign securities may be subject to foreign withholding taxes, and special U.S. tax considerations may apply. Moreover, foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital re-investment, resource self-sufficiency and balance of payments position. The Schedule of Portfolio Investments includes information on each Fund's holdings, including industry and/or geographic composition, as relevant.
The Funds will be subject to credit risk with respect to the amount each expects to receive from counterparties for financial instruments entered into by the Funds. The Funds may be negatively impacted if a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties. The Funds may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding and the Funds may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances. The Funds typically enter into transactions with counterparties whose credit ratings are investment grade, as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, judged by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.
An outbreak of respiratory disease called COVID-19 was first detected in China in December 2019 and subsequently spread internationally. The transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread have resulted in international, national and local border closings and other significant travel restrictions and disruptions, significant disruptions to business operations, supply chains and consumer activity, significant challenges in healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines and general concern and uncertainty. These negative impacts have caused significant volatility and declines in global financial markets, which have caused losses for Fund investors during and subsequent to period end. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may be short term or may last for an extended period of time, and in either case could result in a substantial economic downturn or recession. Public health crises may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, economic, market and financial risks. The extent of the impact to the financial performance of the Funds' investments will depend on future developments, including (i) the duration and spread of the outbreak, (ii) the restrictions and advisories, (iii) the effects on the financial markets, and (iv) the effects on the economy overall, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

6. Borrowing:
Line of Credit:
For the year ended June 30, 2020, the Victory Funds Complex and the USAA Mutual Funds Complex (another series of mutual funds managed by the Adviser) participated in a short-term demand note "Line of Credit" with Citibank. The Line of Credit agreement with Citibank was renewed on June 29, 2020 with a termination date of June 28, 2021. Under the agreement with Citibank, the Victory Funds Complex and USAA Mutual Funds Complex, combined, may borrow up to $600 million, of which $300 million is committed and $300 million is uncommitted. $40 million of the Line of Credit is reserved for use by the Victory Floating Rate Fund (herein, the "Fund"), another series of the Victory Funds Complex, with that Fund paying the related commitment fees for that amount. The purpose of the agreement is to meet temporary or emergency cash needs. For the year ended June 30, 2020, Citibank received an annual commitment fee of 0.15% on $300 million for providing the Line of Credit. Each fund in the Victory Funds Complex pays a pro-rata portion of the commitment fees plus any interest (one month LIBOR plus one percent) on amounts borrowed. Effective June 29, 2020, under an amended Line of Credit agreement, Citibank will also receive an annual upfront fee of 0.10% on the $300 million committed line of credit. Each fund in the Victory Funds Complex will pay a pro-rata portion of the upfront fee. Interest charged to each Fund during the period, if applicable, is presented on the Statements of Operations under Line of credit fees.
The average loans under the line of credit agreement with Citibank for the days outstanding and average interest rate for each Fund during the year ended June 30, 2020 were as follows:
Amount Outstanding at June 30, 2020 | Average Borrowing* | Days Borrowing Outstanding | Average Interest Rate* | Maximum Borrowing During the Period | |||||||||||||||||||

Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
During the year ended June 30, 2020, the Funds realized the following net capital gains (losses) resulting from in-kind redemptions, in which shareholders exchanged Fund shares for securities held by the Fund rather than for cash. Because such gains (losses) are not taxable to the Fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized gains (losses) to capital.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2020, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers or counterparties were not received. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more investment companies advised by Victory Capital Management, Inc. since 2015.

Proxy Voting and Portfolio Holdings Information
Proxy Voting:
Information regarding the policies and procedures each Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available without charge, upon request, by calling 800-539-3863. The information is also included in the Funds' Statement of Additional Information, which is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Information relating to how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve months ended June 30 is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Availability of Schedules of Portfolio Investments:
The Trust files a complete list of Schedules of Portfolio Investments with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-PORT. Forms N-PORT are available on the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov.
Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Funds, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, and other Fund expenses. These examples are 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 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 January 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020.
The Actual Expense figures in the table below provide 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 "Actual Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
The Hypothetical Expense figures in the table below provide 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. 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 Victory Funds have adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program (the "LRMP") as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Act. The LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk, taking into consideration each Fund's investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed market conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other liquidity management tools such as available funding sources including the Victory Funds Complex Interfund Lending Facility and Line of Credit (discussed in the Notes to Financial Statements). The Board approved the appointment of VCM as the administrator of the LRMP. At an in-person meeting held on February 20, 2020, VCM provided an oral and written report to the Trustees on the operation and effectiveness of the LRMP during the previous year.
VCM manages liquidity risks associated with the Funds' investments by monitoring, among other things, cash and cash equivalents, any use of derivatives, the concentration of investments, the appropriateness of each Fund's investment strategy, and by classifying every fund investment as either highly liquid, moderately liquid, less liquid or illiquid on at least a monthly basis. To assist with the classification of Fund investments, VCM has retained a third-party provider of liquidity evaluation services. This provider determines preliminary liquidity classifications for all portfolio holdings based upon portfolio-level data and certain assumptions provided by VCM. VCM reviews the preliminary liquidity classifications and, when appropriate, considers other information including input from the Funds' portfolio managers (including the portfolio managers employed by any investment sub-advisers) in determining final liquidity classifications.
The report from VCM concluded that the Funds did not experience any significant liquidity challenges during the covered period, and the Funds' LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage its liquidity risk. The report also concluded that the LRMP continues to operate adequately and effectively to enable VCM to oversee and manage liquidity risk and ensure each Fund is able to meet redemption requests without significant dilution to the remaining investors' interest in each Fund. During the review period, each Fund's portfolio consisted primarily of highly liquid investments, which are defined as cash and any investments reasonably expected to be converted to cash in current market conditions in three business days or less without significantly changing the market value of the investment. Therefore, the Funds have not adopted a Highly Liquid Investment Minimum. The Funds' investments were below the limitation on illiquid investments during the review period. Additionally, VCM indicated that no events occurred that would require the filing of Form N-LIQUID and recommended no material changes to the LRMP.

Victory Funds Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholder,
What a difference a year makes. Not long ago, we were marveling at the longest-ever bull market in equities. Although the current market environment appears constructive and relatively calm (as of this writing), what has transpired over the past year has been nothing short of astounding.
In fact, the annual period ended June 30, 2020, has been the most unusual period for investors since the Global Financial Crisis or, perhaps, the Great Depression. We entered this year with mundane concerns of interest rates and global trade talks, but that all changed quickly in early 2020. The spread of COVID-19 throughout the United States was an unprecedented event that rendered virtually any economic forecast unreliable. In March, and seemingly overnight, the sentiment pendulum swung from risk-on to risk-off.
The global economy came to an all-stop and equities sold off sharply. Meanwhile, liquidity evaporated in many segments of the fixed-income market, especially higher-yielding credits and anything perceived to be higher risk, which caused credit spreads to widen and depressed prices.
Fortunately, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the "Fed") and other monetary authorities worldwide leapt into action — slashing interest rates, (re)starting quantitative easing and, in the case of the Fed, launching an array of programs to provide liquidity to stabilize fixed-income markets.
The U.S. government also stepped up to provide $2 trillion of fiscal stimulus in the form of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), which aims help toward corporations, small businesses, and individuals that have been affected by the abrupt economic stoppage.
All those steps ended the market's freefall, spurred a significant rally in equities, and helped tighten credit spreads across much of the fixed-income universe. In fact, by June 30, 2020, sentiment was nothing less than bullish and the broad market indexes had largely recovered losses from the first quarter. Through all this turmoil and volatility, the S&P 500® Index managed to deliver an annual return of approximately 7.5% for the 12-month period ended June 30, 2020. Meanwhile, the yield on 10-year U.S. Treasuries declined 144 basis points, reflecting both the Fed intervention and the uncertainties, ending June 30 at approximately 0.66%.
Looking ahead, the economy and markets remain unpredictable. For equities, investors should expect continued bouts of elevated volatility, which will likely be driven by reports on the virus, a possible vaccine, and the economic data. On the whole, however, the tenor of the market is much improved from the depths of the crisis even as earnings estimates remain vague at best.
Credit markets, too, remain unpredictable, though they have stabilized markedly. A wide range of outcomes are conceivable over the next year, but continued monetary intervention and fiscal stimulus, coupled with a regional approach to economic shutdowns, may well prevent credit spreads from returning to the elevated levels of March.
3
Regardless, whatever is in store for markets, you can be certain that the investment philosophies and resolve of Victory Capital's various independent investment franchises remain steadfast. We believe that our collective investment talent and their actively managed portfolios will be able to manage risks and excel in an environment that often creates short-term pricing dislocations that benefit astute investors.
On the following pages, you will find information relating to your Victory Funds investment. If you have any questions, we encourage you to contact your financial advisor. If you invest with us directly, you may call (800) 539-3863, or visit our website at www.vcm.com.
My colleagues and I sincerely appreciate the confidence you have placed in the Victory Funds, and we value the opportunity to help meet your investment goals.

Portfolio Review
June 30, 2020 (Unaudited)
Portfolio Holdings:
As a Percentage of Total Investments
What were the market conditions during the year ended June 30, 2020?
Seems like eons ago, but just a year and a half ago, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the "Fed") had actually increased the Fed Funds rate to a range of 2.25%-2.50%. This turned out to be the highest the Fed Funds rate would go. The Fed began lowering rates, bringing Fed Funds rate down to a range of 2.00%-2.50%, in July 2019. The Fed also stopped shrinking its balance sheet, all in an effort to keep the economy humming, as the effects of the trade war with China were starting to be felt here in the United States. While real Gross Domestic Product ("GDP") was somewhat weak in the second quarter of 2019 at 1.50%, the rest of the year posted a respectable growth rate of 2.50%. However, the world was about to change in a way almost no one imagined.
Sometime in late 2019, reports were surfacing of a virus in Wuhan, China. The virus, a coronavirus that causes the disease known as COVID-19, started spreading rapidly in Wuhan, and was soon beginning to show up in other countries. Ultimately, COVID-19 became a pandemic, and many countries around the world, including the United States, began "locking down" their economies in an effort to contain the virus. In the United States, the lockdowns began in earnest in March, and significantly affected almost every area of the economy.
"Unprecedented" became an everyday word, as life in the United States became unlike anything we have ever seen. With many businesses being forced to temporarily close, many people were put out of work. Monthly payrolls, which had been growing at an average of roughly 216 thousand per month since August 2019, plummeted to a loss of 1.4 million jobs in March, and an unprecedented loss of 21 million jobs in April. The unemployment rate, which was at a record low of 3.5% in February, jumped to 14.7% in April. Real GDP fell 5% in the first quarter of 2020, and a record 32.9% in the second quarter, thus officially marking the economy as being in recession. Due to demand dropping precipitously from people not driving, coupled with a strong supply, the price of West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") crude oil actually went negative in April. This was due to investors in WTI futures contracts, which requires physical settlement, having to pay to not take delivery, forcing the price into unprecedented negative territory.
In response, federal and state governments stepped up stimulus efforts to help those out of work. Congress passed an unprecedented $1 trillion stimulus package, with unemployment benefits to temporarily supplement state payments, as well as grants/loans to businesses. The Fed significantly increased its balance sheet again, and in an unprecedented move, increased the types of bonds it can buy to include corporate bonds.
Although U.S. Treasury rates had already begun to fall by August 2019, in response to worries over the trade war with China and the economy beginning to slow, the unprecedented

worldwide economic shutdown drove rates much lower, as investors bought U.S. Treasuries in a flight to quality. Given the Fed moving the Fed Funds rate to effectively zero and the economy only slowly beginning to reopen, U.S. Treasury rates remain at their lows. Although rates were already low, year-over-year decreases were dramatic. The two-year U.S. Treasury yield dropped 161 basis points, while 10-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury yields dropped 135 and 112 basis points, respectively.
Given the pandemic, credit spreads (yield differentials between corporate bonds and U.S. Treasury securities of comparable maturity) significantly increased. Although they did not increase as much as in 2008, they increased much more rapidly. From a relatively low level in mid-February, spreads peaked in late March; a very rapid increase. AAA, AA, A and BBB spreads widened by 12, 26, 28, and 47 basis points, respectively. High-yield spreads widened by 249 basis points. (Spreads are generally considered an indication of risk; the wider the spread, the greater the perceived risk.) Although spreads have continued to fall, they remain higher than pre-COVID-19 levels.
How did VictoryShares USAA Core Short-Term Bond ETF (the "Fund") perform during the year ended June 30, 2020?
The Fund returned 4.05%, slightly underperforming its benchmark, Bloomberg Barclays 1-3 Yr Credit Index (the "Index"), which returned 4.32% for the year ended June 30, 2020.
What strategies did you employ during the year ended June 30, 2020?
The Fund earned a positive total return during the reporting period, driven primarily by coupon income and the decline in U.S. Treasury yields, but underperformed the Index. Reflecting the portfolio's diversification, the Fund's results were spread among a variety of sectors. Within corporate bonds, the Fund benefited from investments in Metals & Mining, Integrated Energy, Midstream Energy, Consumer Non-Cyclical and Capital Goods. Certain other market segments weighed on relative performance, although they generally produced positive returns. These included Independent Exploration and Production, Airlines, Finance Companies, Asset-Backed Securities, and Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities. In addition, the Fund's cash position was a drag on performance as bond prices rose during the reporting period. We continued to adhere to our disciplined investment approach, which is to maintain an attractive yield with an acceptable level of risk. From a credit risk perspective, investment-grade bonds outperformed for the period, with high yield bonds underperforming. From a credit perspective, investment-grade bonds contributed most to performance, while high-yield bonds dampened returns.
To identify attractive investment opportunities, we worked with our in-house team of credit analysts, continuing to build the portfolio bond-by-bond, through fundamental bottom-up analysis. We seek ideas where our fundamental understanding of the credit risk is different than the market. This approach, we believe, will generate total returns that may outperform our Lipper peers over the long run, with less volatility. Our credit analysts review all securities considered for purchase and assign their own independent credit rating. As always, they continuously monitor every holding in the Fund. We are committed to building a portfolio diversified among multiple asset classes and across a large number of issuers. To minimize the Fund's exposure to potential surprises, we limit the positions we take in any one issuer.

The Fund returned 7.69%, underperforming its benchmark, Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the "Index"), which returned 8.74% for the year ended June 30, 2020.
What strategies did you employ during the year ended June 30, 2020?
The Fund produced a positive total return but underperformed the Index, as bond prices appreciated during the reporting period and spreads widened. Relative to the Index, the Fund was helped by its allocation to, and security selection within, corporate bonds. The Fund benefited from overweight positions in financial sectors such as Banking and Insurance. The Fund also benefited from its allocations to, and security selection within, Midstream Energy, Metals & Mining, Food & Beverage, Utilities and Manufacturing. The Fund's holdings of Agency Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities and Asset-Backed Securities also added to performance. An underweight in U.S. Treasury securities, which generated greater returns than the Index, hindered relative performance. We were also underweight Agency Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities, which detracted from performance. From a credit risk perspective, investment-grade bonds outperformed for the period, with high-yield bonds underperforming. For the Fund, investment-grade bonds contributed most to performance, while high-yield bonds dampened overall returns.
In keeping with our investment process, we continued to build the portfolio bond-by-bond. We work with our team of analysts to seek ideas where our fundamental understanding of the credit risk is different than that of the market. During the year, we found a number of attractive opportunities as we continued to seek relative values across the fixed income market. We took advantage of periods of volatility to add or reduce select investments in Corporate Credit, Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities, Asset-Backed Securities and Taxable Municipals.
Our analysts continued to analyze and monitor every holding in the portfolio. We are committed to building a portfolio diversified among multiple asset classes and across a large number of issuers.

Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2020 |
1. Organization:
Victory Portfolios II (the "Trust") was organized on April 11, 2012 as a Delaware statutory trust as a successor to the "Compass EMP Funds Trust." The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company. The Trust is currently comprised of 24 funds, 22 of which are exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares, which are units of beneficial interest with no par value. Each Fund is classified as diversified under the 1940 Act.
On April 18, 2019, shareholders of the USAA ETF Trust voted to approve the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, which provided for the Reorganization of the Predecessor Funds into the Funds (the "Reorganizations").
The accompanying financial statements are those of the following two Funds (collectively, the "Funds" and individually, a "Fund"). These Funds have been newly formed for the purposes of completing the Reorganizations with the two corresponding series of USAA ETF Trust, a registered investment company (each such series, a "Predecessor Fund"), as follows:
Predecessor Fund Name | Funds (Legal Name) | Funds (Short Name) | |||||||||
USAA Core Short-Term Bond ETF | VictoryShares USAA Core Short-Term Bond ETF | USAA Core Short-Term Bond ETF | |||||||||
USAA Core Intermediate-Term Bond ETF | VictoryShares USAA Core Intermediate-Term Bond ETF | USAA Core Intermediate-Term Bond ETF |
The Funds commenced operation on July 1, 2019, upon the completion of the Reorganizations and each Fund is the accounting successor of its respective Predecessor Fund. The Funds assumed the performance, financial and other historical information of the Predecessor Funds. Information presented for periods prior to the date of these financial statements reflects, where applicable, the historical information of the Predecessor Funds.
On November 6, 2018, United Services Automobile Association (USAA), the parent company of USAA Asset Management Company ("AMCO"), the investment adviser of the Predecessor Funds, announced that AMCO would be acquired by Victory Capital Holdings Inc., a global investment management firm headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, on July 1, 2019. Effective July 1, 2019, Victory Capital Management Inc.'s internal investment team, Victory Solutions, began managing the Funds' net assets.
Effective September 1, 2019, the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") approved the fiscal year-end change for the Funds from August 31 to June 30. The accompanying financial statements reflect this change in fiscal year-end.
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 with their vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the Funds expect that risk of loss to be remote.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
Shares of the Funds are listed and traded on NYSE Arca, Inc (the "Exchange"). The Funds issue and redeem shares of a Fund ("Shares") at net asset value ("NAV") only in aggregations of 50,000 Shares (each a "Creation Unit"). The Funds issue and redeem Creation Units principally in exchange for a basket of securities included in the respective Fund's Index (the "Deposit Securities"), together with the deposit of a specified cash payment (the "Cash Component"), plus a transaction fee. Shares will trade on the Exchange at market prices that may be below, at, or above NAV. Shares of a Fund may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions ("Authorized Participants"). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the distributor. Only Authorized Participants may purchase or redeem the shares directly from a Fund. In addition, Shares may be issued in advance of receipt of Deposit Securities subject to various conditions, including a
40
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
requirement to maintain on deposit with the Trust cash equal to up to 105% of fair value of the missing Deposit Securities. In each instance of such cash creations or redemptions, transaction fees may be imposed and may be higher than the transaction fees associated with in-kind creations or redemptions.
Each Fund may issue an unlimited number of Shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. Shares of each Fund have equal rights and privileges. A purchase (i.e., creation) transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transactional costs associated with the purchase of Creation Units. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units. Variable fees received by each Fund are displayed in the Capital Share Transaction section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets as an increase to Capital.
The Transaction Fees for each Fund are listed below:
Fee for In-Kind and Cash Purchases and Redemptions | Maximum Additional Variable Charge for Cash Purchases and Redemptions* | ||||||||||
USAA Core Short-Term Bond ETF | $ | 100 | 2.00 | % | |||||||
USAA Core Intermediate-Term Bond ETF | 100 | 2.00 | % |
* As a percentage of the amount invested.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in accordance 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 income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Funds follow the specialized accounting and reporting requirements under GAAP that are applicable to investment companies.
Investment Valuation:
The Funds record investments at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The valuation techniques described below maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. The inputs used for valuing the Funds' investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
• Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities or interest rates applicable to those securities, etc.)
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds' own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuation techniques are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with entering into those investments.
Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Debt securities of United States ("U.S.") issuers (other than short-term investments maturing in 60 days or less), including corporate and municipal securities, are valued on the basis of bid valuations provided by dealers or an independent pricing service approved by the Board. Short-term investments maturing in 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Under the amortized cost method, premium or discount, if any, is amortized or accreted, respectively, on a constant basis to the maturity of the security. In each of these situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
41
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
Investments for which there are no such quotations, or for which quotations do not appear reliable, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Board. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, based on the observability of inputs used to determine the fair value.
A summary of the valuations as of June 30, 2020, based upon the three levels defined above, is included in the table below while the breakdown, by category, of investments is disclosed on the Schedules of Portfolio Investments.

For the ten months ended June 30, 2020, there were no transfers in or out of the Level 3 fair value hierarchy.
Securities Purchased on a When-Issued Basis:
The Funds may purchase securities on a when-issued basis. When-issued securities are securities purchased for delivery beyond normal settlement periods at a stated price and/or yield, thereby involving the risk that the price and/or yield obtained may be more or less than those available in the market when delivery takes place. At the time a Fund makes the commitment to purchase a security on a when-issued basis, the Fund records the transaction and reflects the value of the security in determining net asset value. No interest accrues to the Fund until the transaction settles and payment takes place. Normally, the settlement date occurs within one month of the purchase. A segregated account is established and the Fund maintains cash and/or marketable securities at least equal in value to commitments for when-issued securities. If a Fund owns when-issued securities, these values are included in Payable for investments purchased on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the segregated assets are identified on the Schedules of Portfolio Investments.
Municipal Obligations:
The values of municipal obligations can fluctuate and may be affected by adverse tax, legislative, or political changes, and by financial developments affecting municipal issuers. Payment of municipal obligations may depend on a relatively limited source of revenue, resulting in greater credit risk. Future changes in federal tax laws or the activity of an issuer may adversely affect the tax-exempt status of municipal obligations.
42
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
Mortgage-Related and Asset-Backed Securities:
The values of some mortgage-related or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The values of mortgage- and asset-backed securities depend in part on the credit quality and adequacy of the underlying assets or collateral and may fluctuate in response to the market's perception of these factors as well as current and future repayment rates. Some mortgage-backed securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government (e.g., mortgage-backed securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association, commonly known as "Ginnie Mae"), while other mortgage-backed securities (e.g., mortgage-backed securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, commonly known as "Fannie Mae" and "Freddie Mac," respectively), are backed only by the credit of the government entity issuing them. In addition, some mortgage-backed securities are issued by private entities and, as such, are not guaranteed by the U.S. government or any agency or instrumentality of the U.S. government.
Loans:
Floating rate loans in which a Fund invest are primarily "senior" loans. Senior floating rate loans typically hold a senior position in the capital structures of the borrower, are typically secured by specific collateral, and have a claim on the assets and/or stock of the borrower that is senior to that held by subordinated debtholders and stockholders of the borrower. While these protections may reduce risk, these investments still present significant credit risk. A significant portion of a Fund's floating rate investments may be issued in connection with highly leveraged transactions such as leveraged buyouts, leveraged recapitalization loans, and other types of acquisition financing. Obligations in these types of transactions are subject to greater credit risk (including default and bankruptcy) than many other investments and may be, or become, illiquid. See the note below regarding below investment grade securities.
A Fund may purchase second lien loans (secured loans with a claim on collateral subordinate to a senior lender's claim on such collateral), fixed rate loans, unsecured loans, and other debt obligations.
Transactions in loans often settle on a delayed basis, and a Fund may not receive the proceeds from the sale of a loan or pay for a loan purchase for a substantial period of time after entering into the transactions.
Below Investment Grade Securities:
Certain Funds may invest in below investment grade securities (i.e., lower-quality, "junk" debt), which are subject to various risks. Lower-quality debt is considered to be speculative because it is less certain that the issuer will be able to pay interest or repay the principal than in the case of investment grade debt. These securities can involve a substantially greater risk of default than higher-rated securities, and their values can decline significantly over short periods of time. Lower-quality debt securities tend to be more sensitive to adverse news about their issuers, the market and the economy in general, than higher-quality debt securities. The market for these securities can be less liquid, especially during periods of recession or general market decline.
Collateralized Loan Obligations ("CLOs"):
CLOs are securities issued by entities that are collateralized by a pool of loans. CLOs are issued in multiple classes (tranches), and can be equity or debt with specific adjustable or fixed interest rates, and varying maturities. The cash flow from the underlying loans is used to pay off each tranche separately within the debt, or senior tranches. Equity, or subordinated tranches, typically are not paid a cash flow but do offer ownership in the CLO itself in the event of a sale.

Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
Investment Companies:
The Funds may invest in portfolios of open-end investment companies. These investment traded companies value securities in their portfolios for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value by the methods established by the board of directors of the underlying funds.
Derivative Instruments:
Futures Contracts:
The Funds may enter into contracts for the future delivery of securities or foreign currencies and futures contracts based on a specific security, class of securities, foreign currency or an index, and purchase or sell options on any such futures contracts. A futures contract on a securities index is an agreement obligating either party to pay, and entitling the other party to receive, while the contract is outstanding, cash payments based on the level of a specified securities index. No physical delivery of the underlying asset is made. A Fund may enter into futures contracts in an effort to hedge against market risks. The acquisition of put and call options on futures contracts will give the Fund the right (but not the obligation), for a specified price, to sell or to purchase the underlying futures contract, upon exercise of the option, at any time during the option period. Futures transactions involve brokerage costs and require the Fund to segregate assets to cover contracts that would require it to purchase securities or currencies. A good faith margin deposit, known as initial margin, of cash or government securities with a broker or custodian is required to initiate and maintain open positions in futures contracts. Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund based on the change in the market value of the position and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed out, at which time the gain or loss is realized. A Fund may lose the expected benefit of futures transactions if interest rates, exchange rates or securities prices change in an unanticipated manner. Such unanticipated changes may also result in lower overall performance than if the Fund had not entered into any futures transactions. In addition, the value of a Fund's futures positions may not prove to be perfectly or even highly correlated with the value of its portfolio securities or foreign currencies, limiting a Fund's ability to hedge effectively against interest rate, exchange rate and/or market risk and giving rise to additional risks. There is no assurance of liquidity in the secondary market for purposes of closing out futures positions. The collateral held by the Funds is presented on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities under Deposits with brokers for futures contracts. As of and during the ten months ended June 30, 2020, the Funds held no futures contracts.
During the year ended August 31, 2019, the USAA Core Intermediate-Term Bond ETF entered into futures contracts primarily for the strategy of hedging or other purposes, including but not limited to, providing liquidity and equitizing cash.
Offsetting of Financial Assets and Derivatives Assets:
The Funds are subject to various Master Netting Arrangements, which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. The Master Netting Arrangements allow the Funds to close out and net total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single agreement with a counterparty. The Master Netting Arrangements also specify collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Netting Arrangements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net of existing collateral already in place) governed under the relevant Master Netting Arrangement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specified threshold depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Netting Arrangement. The Funds did not hold derivative instruments during the period ended June 30, 2020.

The following table presents the effect of derivative instruments on the Statements of Operations, categorized by risk exposure, for the year ended August 31, 2019.

Investment Transactions and Related Income:
Changes in holdings of investments are accounted for no later than one business day following the trade date. For financial reporting purposes, however, investment transactions are accounted for on trade date on the last business day of the reporting period. Interest income is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued using the effective interest method which adjusts, where applicable, the amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are recorded on the identified cost basis.
Certain Funds may receive other income from investment in loan assignments and/or unfunded commitments, including amendment fees, consent fees, and commitment fees. These fees are recorded as income when received by the Fund. These amounts, if received, are included in Interest income on the Statements of Operations.
Withholding taxes on interest, dividends and gains as a result of certain investments in ADRs by the Funds have been provided for in accordance with each investment's applicable country's tax rules and rates.
Securities Lending:
The Trust has entered into a Master Securities Lending Agreement ("MSLA") with Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank" or the "Agent"). Under the terms of the MSLA, the Funds may lend securities to certain broker-dealers and banks in exchange for collateral in the amount of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned or at least 105% of the value of non-U.S. securities loaned, marked-to-market daily. Any collateral shortfalls associated with increases in the valuation of the securities loaned are adjusted the next business day. The collateral can be received in the form of cash collateral and/or non-cash collateral. Non-cash collateral can include U.S. Government Securities, letters of credit and certificates of deposit. The cash collateral is invested in short-term instruments or cash equivalents, primarily open-end investment companies, as noted on the Funds' Schedules of Portfolio Investments. The Trust does not have effective control of the non-cash collateral and therefore it is not disclosed on the Funds' Schedules of Portfolio Investments. During the time portfolio securities are on loan, the borrower will pay the Funds any dividends or interest paid on such securities plus any fee negotiated between the parties to the lending agreement. The Funds also earn a return from the collateral. The Funds pay the Agent various fees in connection with the investment of cash collateral and fees based on the investment income received from securities lending activities. Securities lending income (net of these fees) is disclosed on the Statements of Operations. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the Funds could experience a delay in recovering their securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them.
Securities lending transactions are entered into by a Fund under the MSLA, which permits the Fund, under certain circumstances such as an event of default, to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts receivable from the counterparty to create a net payment due to or from the Fund.

The following table is a summary of the Funds' securities lending transactions which are subject to offset under the MSLA as of June 30, 2020. These transactions are accounted for as secured borrowings with an overnight and continuous contractual maturity for cash collateral and greater than overnight and continuous contractual maturity for non-cash collateral.

Distributions to Shareholders:
Each of the Funds intends to declare and distribute any net investment income monthly. Each of the Funds distribute any net realized long or short-term capital gains at least annually.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains (collectively, distributions to shareholders) are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. To the extent these "book/tax" differences are permanent in nature (e.g., net operating loss and distribution reclassification), such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences (e.g., wash sales) do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends and distributions exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of capital. Net investment losses incurred by a Fund may be reclassified as an offset to capital on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
As of June 30, 2020, there are no reclassification adjustments (inclusive of in-kind redemptions as applicable) incurred by the Funds on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences.
Federal Income Taxes:
It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements. The Funds have a tax year end of June 30.
Management of the Funds has reviewed tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by all major tax jurisdictions, including federal (i.e., the last four tax years, which includes the current fiscal tax year end). Management believes that there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken.
Allocations:
Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to the Fund, while expenses which are attributable to more than one fund in the Trust, or jointly with an affiliated trust, are allocated among the respective funds in the Trust and/or affiliated trust based upon net assets or another appropriate basis.
Cross-Trade Transactions:
Pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act, the Funds may engage in securities transactions with affiliated investment companies and advisory accounts managed by the Adviser and any applicable
46
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
sub-adviser. Any such purchase or sale transaction must be effected without brokerage commission or other remuneration, except for customary transfer fees. The transaction must be effected at the current market price, which is either the security's last sale price on an exchange or, if there are no transactions in the security that day, at the average of the highest bid and lowest asked price. For the ten months ended June 30, 2020, the Funds engaged in the following securities transactions with affiliated funds, which resulted in the following net realized gains (losses):

5. Risks:
Each Fund may be subject to other risks in addition to these identified risks.
An investment in the Funds' Shares represents an indirect investment in the securities owned by the Funds, some of which will be traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter markets. The value of the securities in which the Funds invest, like other market investments, may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. The value of the securities in which the Funds invest may affect the value of the Funds' Shares. An investment in the Funds' Shares at any point in time may be worth less than the original investment, even after taking into account the reinvestment of the Funds' distributions.
The Funds are subject to credit risk with respect to the amount each expects to receive from counterparties for financial instruments entered into by the Funds. The Funds may be negatively impacted if a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties. The Funds may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding and the Funds may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances. The Funds typically enter into transactions with counterparties whose credit ratings are investment grade, as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, judged by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.
The Funds are subject to credit and interest rate risk with respect to fixed income securities. Credit risk refers to the ability of an issuer to make timely payments of interest and principal. Interest rates may rise or the rate of inflation may increase, impacting the value of investments in fixed income securities. A debt issuers' credit quality may be downgraded or an issuer may default. Interest rates may fluctuate due to changes in governmental fiscal policy initiatives and resulting market reaction to those initiatives.
An outbreak of respiratory disease called COVID-19 was first detected in China in December 2019 and subsequently spread internationally. The transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread have resulted in international, national and local border closings and other significant travel restrictions and disruptions, significant disruptions to business operations, supply chains and consumer activity, significant challenges in healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines and general concern and uncertainty. These negative impacts have caused significant volatility and declines in global financial markets, which have caused losses for Fund investors during and subsequent to period end. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may be short term or may last for an extended period of time, and in either case could result in a substantial economic downturn or recession. Public health crises may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, economic, market and financial risks. The extent of the impact to the financial performance of the Funds' investments will depend on future developments, including (i) the duration and spread of the outbreak, (ii) the restrictions and advisories, (iii) the effects on the financial markets, and (iv) the effects on the economy overall, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
6. Line of Credit:
For the ten months ended June 30, 2020, the Victory Funds Complex participated in a short-term demand note "Line of Credit" agreement with Citibank. The Line of Credit agreement with Citibank was renewed on June 29, 2020 with a termination date of June 28, 2021. Under the agreement with Citibank, the Victory Funds Complex and USAA Mutual Funds Complex, combined, may borrow up to
50
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
$600 million, of which $300 million is committed and $300 million is uncommitted. $40 million of the Line of Credit is reserved for use by the Victory Floating Rate Fund (herein, the "Fund"), another series of the Victory Funds Complex, with that Fund paying the related commitment fees for that amount. The purpose of the agreement is to meet temporary or emergency cash needs. For the ten months ended June 30, 2020, Citibank received an annual commitment fee of 0.15% on $300 million for providing the Line of Credit. Each fund in the Victory Funds Complex pays a pro-rata portion of the commitment fees plus any interest (one month LIBOR plus one percent) on amounts borrowed. Effective June 29, 2020, under an amended Line of Credit agreement, Citibank will also receive an annual upfront fee of 0.10% on the $300 million committed line of credit. Each fund in the Victory Funds Complex will pay a pro-rata portion of the upfront fee. Interest charged to each Fund during the period, if applicable, is presented on the Statements of Operations under Line of credit fees.
The average loans for the days outstanding and average interest rate for each Fund during the ten months ended June 30, 2020, were as follows:
Amount Outstanding at June 30, 2020 | Average Borrowing | Days Borrowing Outstanding | Average Interest Rate* | Maximum Borrowing During the Period | |||||||||||||||||||

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of Victory Portfolios II
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of portfolio investments, of VictoryShares USAA Core Short-Term Bond ETF and VictoryShares USAA Core Intermediate-Term Bond ETF (the "Funds"), each a series of Victory Portfolios II, as of June 30, 2020, and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for the ten months ended June 30, 2020 and for the year ended August 31, 2019, (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of June 30, 2020, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the ten months ended June 30, 2020 and for the year ended August 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Funds' financial highlights and financial statements for the period ended August 31, 2018, were audited by other auditors whose report dated October 25, 2018, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights and financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2020, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more investment companies advised by Victory Capital Management, Inc. since 2015.

Proxy Voting and Portfolio Holdings Information
Proxy Voting:
Information regarding the policies and procedures each Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available without charge, upon request, by calling 800-539-3863. The information is also included in the Funds' Statement of Additional Information, which is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Information relating to how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve months ended June 30 is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Availability of Schedules of Portfolio Investments:
The Trust files a complete list of Schedules of Portfolio Investments with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-PORT. Forms N-PORT are available on the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov.
Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Funds, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. These examples are 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 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 January 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020.
The Actual Expense figures in the table below provide 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 "Actual Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
The Hypothetical Expense figures in the table below provide 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. 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.

Liquidity Risk Management Program:
The Victory Funds have adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program (the "LRMP") as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Act. The LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk, taking into consideration each Fund's investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed market conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other liquidity management tools such as available funding sources including the Victory Funds Complex Interfund Lending Facility and Line of Credit (discussed in the Notes to Financial Statements). The Board approved the appointment of VCM as the administrator of the LRMP. At an in-person meeting held on February 20, 2020, VCM provided an oral and written report to the Trustees on the operation and effectiveness of the LRMP during the previous year.
VCM manages liquidity risks associated with the Funds' investments by monitoring, among other things, cash and cash equivalents, any use of derivatives, the concentration of investments, the appropriateness of each Fund's investment strategy, and by classifying every fund investment as either highly liquid, moderately liquid, less liquid or illiquid on at least a monthly basis. To assist with the classification of Fund investments, VCM has retained a third-party provider of liquidity evaluation services. This provider determines preliminary liquidity classifications for all portfolio holdings based upon portfolio-level data and certain assumptions provided by VCM. VCM reviews the preliminary liquidity classifications and, when appropriate, considers other information including input from the Funds' portfolio managers (including the portfolio managers employed by any investment sub-advisers) in determining final liquidity classifications.
The report from VCM concluded that the Funds did not experience any significant liquidity challenges during the covered period, and the Funds' LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage its liquidity risk. The report also concluded that the LRMP continues to operate adequately and effectively to enable VCM to oversee and manage liquidity risk and ensure each Fund is able to meet redemption requests without significant dilution to the remaining investors' interest in each Fund. During the review period, each Fund's portfolio consisted primarily of highly liquid investments, which are defined as cash and any investments reasonably expected to be converted to cash in current market conditions in three business days or less without significantly changing the market value of the investment. Therefore, the Funds have not adopted a Highly Liquid Investment Minimum. The Funds' investments were below the limitation on illiquid investments during the review period. Additionally, VCM indicated that no events occurred that would require the filing of Form N-LIQUID and recommended no material changes to the LRMP.

Victory Funds Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholder,
What a difference a year makes. Not long ago, we were marveling at the longest-ever bull market in equities. Although the current market environment appears constructive and relatively calm (as of this writing), what has transpired over the past year has been nothing short of astounding.
In fact, the annual period ended June 30, 2020, has been the most unusual period for investors since the Global Financial Crisis or, perhaps, the Great Depression. We entered this year with mundane concerns of interest rates and global trade talks, but that all changed quickly in early 2020. The spread of COVID-19 throughout the United States was an unprecedented event that rendered virtually any economic forecast unreliable. In March, and seemingly overnight, the sentiment pendulum swung from risk-on to risk-off.
The global economy came to an all-stop and equities sold off sharply. Meanwhile, liquidity evaporated in many segments of the fixed-income market, especially higher-yielding credits and anything perceived to be higher risk, which caused credit spreads to widen and depressed prices.
Fortunately, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the "Fed") and other monetary authorities worldwide leapt into action — slashing interest rates, (re)starting quantitative easing and, in the case of the Fed, launching an array of programs to provide liquidity to stabilize fixed-income markets.
The U.S. government also stepped up to provide $2 trillion of fiscal stimulus in the form of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), which aims help toward corporations, small businesses, and individuals that have been affected by the abrupt economic stoppage.
All those steps ended the market's freefall, spurred a significant rally in equities, and helped tighten credit spreads across much of the fixed-income universe. In fact, by June 30, 2020, sentiment was nothing less than bullish and the broad market indexes had largely recovered losses from the first quarter. Through all this turmoil and volatility, the S&P 500® Index managed to deliver an annual return of approximately 7.5% for the 12-month period ended June 30, 2020. Meanwhile, the yield on 10-year U.S. Treasuries declined 144 basis points, reflecting both the Fed intervention and the uncertainties, ending June 30 at approximately 0.66%.
Looking ahead, the economy and markets remain unpredictable. For equities, investors should expect continued bouts of elevated volatility, which will likely be driven by reports on the virus, a possible vaccine, and the economic data. On the whole, however, the tenor of the market is much improved from the depths of the crisis even as earnings estimates remain vague at best.
Credit markets, too, remain unpredictable, though they have stabilized markedly. A wide range of outcomes are conceivable over the next year, but continued monetary intervention and fiscal stimulus, coupled with a regional approach to economic shutdowns, may well prevent credit spreads from returning to the elevated levels of March.

Regardless, whatever is in store for markets, you can be certain that the investment philosophies and resolve of Victory Capital's various independent investment franchises remain steadfast. We believe that our collective investment talent and their passively managed portfolios will be able to manage risks and excel in an environment that often creates short-term pricing dislocations that benefit astute investors.
On the following pages, you will find information relating to your Victory Funds investment. If you have any questions, we encourage you to contact your financial advisor. If you invest with us directly, you may call (800) 539-3863, or visit our website at www.vcm.com.
My colleagues and I sincerely appreciate the confidence you have placed in the Victory Funds, and we value the opportunity to help meet your investment goals.

Portfolio Review
June 30, 2020 (Unaudited)
What were the market conditions during the year ended June 30, 2020?
U.S. equities posted mixed results over the one-year period ended June 30, 2020, with the S&P 500® Index and the Nasdaq-100 Index returning 7.51% and 33.78%, respectively, and the Russell 2000® Index returning -6.63%. During the first quarter of 2020, the U.S. equity market experienced a drawdown of approximately 34% (as measured by the S&P 500® Index) as fears over a spreading COVID-19 virus resulted in a temporary economic shutdown. Once business activity resumed around the second quarter, the U.S. equity market began to rally. Large-cap growth stocks appeared to drive the market rally as the Nasdaq-100 Index reached new highs during the second quarter, while the S&P 500® Index and the Russell 2000® Indexes failed to fully reach their pre-correction peaks. Growth stocks outperformed value stocks over the evaluation period, as the Russell 1000® Growth Index returned 23.28% while the Russell 1000® Value Index returned 8.84%.
How did VictoryShares USAA MSCI USA Value Momentum ETF (the "Fund") perform during the year ended June 30, 2020?
The Fund returned -9.94% based on net asset value (NAV) and -10.17% based on market price over the one-year period ended June 30, 2020. The MSCI USA Select Value Momentum Blend Index (the "Index") returned -9.89% for the period.
The Fund, which provides exposure to U.S. large- and mid-cap stocks with value and momentum characteristics, as well as the Index, were negatively impacted by an underweight to the Information Technology sector, which was one of the best-performing sectors over the reporting period. An overweight to the Industrials sector also was detrimental as the sector delivered negative performance over the period.

1The MSCI USA Select Value Momentum Blend Index is based on MSCI USA Index, its parent index, which includes large- and mid-cap stocks in the U.S. equity market. The index is designed to represent the performance of a strategy that seeks higher exposure to value and momentum factors within the parent index while also maintaining moderate Index turnover and lower realized volatility than traditional cap-weighted indexes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
2The MSCI USA Index is designed to measure the performance of the large- and mid-cap segments of the U.S. market. With 637 constituents, the index covers approximately 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization in the United States. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Portfolio Review
June 30, 2020 (Unaudited)
What were the market conditions during the year ended June 30, 2020?
U.S. equities posted mixed results over the one-year period ended June 30, 2020, with the S&P 500® Index and the Nasdaq-100 Index returning 7.51% and 33.78%, respectively, and the Russell 2000® Index declining by returning -6.63%. During the first quarter of 2020, the U.S. equity market experienced a drawdown of approximately 34% (as measured by the S&P 500® Index) as fears over a spreading COVID-19 virus resulted in a temporary economic shutdown. Once business activity resumed around the second quarter, the U.S. equity market began to rally. Large-cap growth stocks appeared to drive the market rally as the Nasdaq-100 Index reached new highs during the second quarter, while the S&P 500® Index and the Russell 2000® Indexes failed to fully reach their pre-correction peaks. Growth stocks outperformed value stocks over the evaluation period, as the Russell 2000® Growth Index returned 3.48% while the Russell 2000® Value Index returned 17.48%.
How did VictoryShares USAA MSCI USA Small Cap Value Momentum ETF (the "Fund") perform during the year ended June 30, 2020?
The Fund returned -9.25% based on net asset value (NAV) and -9.19% based on market price over the one-year period ended June 30, 2020. The MSCI USA Select Value Momentum Blend Index (the "Index") returned -8.97% for the period.
The Fund, which provides exposure to U.S. small-cap stocks with value and momentum characteristics, as well as the Index, were negatively impacted by a double-digit decline in the Financials sector. A slight underweight to Information Technology was also detrimental to performance as the sector increased by double digits over the evaluation period. The Real Estate, Industrials, and Communication Services sectors provided positive contribution with good stock selection.

June 30, 2020 (Unaudited)
What were the market conditions during the year ended June 30, 2020?
Non-U.S. developed markets mostly declined over the one-year period ended June 30, 2020, with the MSCI EAFE Index returning -5.13% and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index returning -4.80%. During the first quarter of 2020, the non-U.S. developed markets experienced a drawdown of approximately 34% (as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index) as fears over a spreading COVID-19 virus resulted in a temporary global economic shutdown. Once business activity resumed around the second quarter, non-U.S. developed markets began to rally. Despite the improving performance, neither the MSCI EAFE or the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index made it back to their pre-correction peaks. Non-U.S. growth stocks outperformed value stocks over the evaluation period, as the MSCI ACWI ex USA Growth Index returned 5.80% while the MSCI ACWI ex USA Value Index returned 15.26%.
How did VictoryShares USAA MSCI International Value Momentum ETF (the "Fund") perform during the year ended June 30, 2020?
The Fund returned -12.42% based on net asset value (NAV) and -12.67% based on market price over the one-year period ended June 30, 2020. The MSCI World ex USA Select Value Momentum Blend Index (the "Index") returned -12.18% for the period.
The Fund, which provides exposure to equities in non-U.S. markets with value and momentum characteristics, as well as the Index were negatively impacted by Japan, Switzerland and Canada, where stock selection was struggling in the face of mixed country-level performance. The Fund's underweight position to securities held in the United Kingdom, where performance was negative, protected the portfolio and resulted in a positive allocation effect.

During the first quarter of 2020, emerging markets experienced a drawdown of approximately 34% (as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index) as fears over a spreading COVID-19 virus resulted in a temporary global economic shutdown.

The Fund, which provides exposure to equities in emerging markets with value and momentum characteristics, as well as the Index, were negatively impacted by China and Korea, where stock selection struggled due to low exposure to technology. The Fund's underweight positions to negatively performing markets such as India and Russia helped protect the portfolio, while good stock selection in Thailand improved Fund performance.

Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2020 |
1. Organization:
Victory Portfolios II (the "Trust") was organized on April 11, 2012 as a Delaware statutory trust, as a successor to the "Compass EMP Funds Trust." The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company. The Trust is currently comprised of 24 funds, 22 of which are exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares, which are units of beneficial interest with no par value. Each Fund is classified as diversified under the 1940 Act.
On April 18, 2019, shareholders of the USAA ETF Trust voted to approve the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, which provided for the Reorganizations of the Predecessor Funds into the Funds (the "Reorganizations").
The accompanying financial statements are those of the following four Funds (collectively, the "Funds" and individually, a "Fund"). These Funds have been newly formed for the purposes of completing the Reorganizations with the four corresponding series of USAA ETF Trust, a registered investment company (each such series, a "Predecessor Fund"), as follows:
Predecessor Fund Name | Funds (Legal Name) | Funds (Short Name) | |||||||||
USAA MSCI USA Value Momentum Blend Index ETF | VictoryShares USAA MSCI USA Value Momentum ETF | USAA MSCI USA Value Momentum ETF | |||||||||
USAA MSCI USA Small Cap Value Momentum Blend Index ETF | VictoryShares USAA MSCI USA Small Cap Value Momentum ETF | USAA MSCI USA Small Cap Value Momentum ETF | |||||||||
USAA MSCI International Value Momentum Blend Index ETF | VictoryShares USAA MSCI International Value Momentum ETF | USAA MSCI International Value Momentum ETF | |||||||||
USAA MSCI Emerging Markets Value Momentum Blend Index ETF | VictoryShares USAA MSCI Emerging Markets Value Momentum ETF | USAA MSCI Emerging Markets Value Momentum ETF |
The Funds commenced operation on July 1, 2019, upon the completion of the Reorganizations and each Fund is the accounting successor of its respective Predecessor Fund. The Funds assumed the performance, financial and other historical information of the Predecessor Funds. Information presented for periods prior to the date of these financial statements reflects, where applicable, the historical information of the Predecessor Funds.
On November 6, 2018, United Services Automobile Association (USAA), the parent company of USAA Asset Management Company ("AMCO"), the investment adviser of the Predecessor Funds, announced that AMCO would be acquired by Victory Capital Holdings Inc., a global investment management firm headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, on July 1, 2019. Effective July 1, 2019, Victory Capital Management Inc.'s internal investment team, Victory Solutions, began managing the Funds' net assets.
Effective September 1, 2019, the Board of Trustees (the "Board") approved the fiscal year-end change for the Funds from August 31 to June 30. The accompanying financial statements reflect this change in fiscal year-end.
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 with their vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the Funds expect that risk of loss to be remote.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
Shares of the Funds are listed and traded on NYSE Arca, Inc (the "Exchange"). The Funds issue and redeem shares of a Fund ("Shares") at net asset value ("NAV") only in aggregations of 50,000 Shares (each a "Creation Unit"). The Funds issue and redeem Creation Units principally in exchange for a basket of securities included in the respective Fund's Index (the "Deposit Securities"), together with the deposit of a specified cash payment (the "Cash Component"), plus a transaction fee. Shares will trade on the Exchange at market prices that may be below, at, or above NAV. Shares of a Fund may
68
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions ("Authorized Participants"). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the distributor. Only Authorized Participants may purchase or redeem the shares directly from a Fund. In addition, Shares may be issued in advance of receipt of Deposit Securities subject to various conditions, including a requirement to maintain on deposit with the Trust cash equal to up to 105% of fair value of the missing Deposit Securities. In each instance of such cash creations or redemptions, transaction fees may be imposed and may be higher than the transaction fees associated with in-kind creations or redemptions.
Each Fund may issue an unlimited number of Shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. Shares of each Fund have equal rights and privileges. A purchase (i.e., creation) transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transactional costs associated with the purchase of Creation Units. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units. Variable fees received by each Fund are displayed in the Capital Share Transaction section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets as an increase to Capital.
The Transaction Fees for each Fund are listed below.
Fee for In-Kind and Cash Purchases and Redemptions | Maximum Additional Variable Charge for Cash Purchases and Redemptions* | ||||||||||

* As a percentage of the amount invested.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in accordance 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 income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Funds follow the specialized accounting and reporting requirements under GAAP that are applicable to investment companies.
Investment Valuation:
The Funds record investments at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The valuation techniques described below maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. The inputs used for valuing the Funds' investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
• Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities or interest rates applicable to those securities, etc.)
• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds' own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
69
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuation techniques are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with entering into those investments.
Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Portfolio securities listed or traded on securities exchanges, including American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") and Rights, are valued at the closing price on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded, if available, or at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price. If there have been no sales for that day on the exchange or system, then a security is valued at the last available bid quotation on the exchange or system where the security is principally traded. In each of these situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or an exchange on which they are traded. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments for which there are no such quotations, or for which quotations do not appear reliable, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Board. These valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, based on the observability of inputs used to determine the fair value.
A summary of the valuations as of June 30, 2020, based upon the three levels defined above, is included in the table below while the breakdown, by category, of investments is disclosed on the Schedules of Portfolio Investments.

For the ten months ended June 30, 2020, there were no transfers in or out of the Level 3 fair value hierarchy.
Real Estate Investment Trusts ("REITs"):
The Funds may invest in REITs, which report information on the source of their distributions annually. REITs are pooled investment vehicles that invest primarily in income-producing real estate or real-estate related loans or interests (such as mortgages). Certain distributions received from REITs during the year are recorded as realized gains or return of capital as estimated by the Funds or when such information becomes known.
Investment Companies:
The Funds may invest in portfolios of open-end investment companies. These investment traded companies value securities in their portfolios for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value by the methods established by the board of directors of the underlying funds.
Derivative Instruments:
Futures Contracts:
The Funds may enter into contracts for the future delivery of securities or foreign currencies and futures contracts based on a specific security, class of securities, foreign currency or an index, and purchase or sell options on any such futures contracts. A futures contract on a securities index is an agreement obligating either party to pay, and entitling the other party to receive, while the contract is outstanding, cash payments based on the level of a specified securities index. No physical delivery of the underlying asset is made. A Fund may enter into futures contracts in an effort to hedge against market risks. The acquisition of put and call options on futures contracts will give the Fund the right (but not the obligation), for a specified price, to sell or to purchase the underlying futures contract, upon exercise of the option, at any time during the option period. Futures transactions involve brokerage costs and require the Fund to segregate assets to cover contracts that would require it to purchase securities or currencies. A good faith margin deposit, known as initial margin, of cash or government securities with a broker or custodian is required to initiate and maintain open positions in futures contracts. Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund based on the change in the market value of the position and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or
71
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
depreciation until the contract is closed out, at which time the gain or loss is realized. A Fund may lose the expected benefit of futures transactions if interest rates, exchange rates or securities prices change in an unanticipated manner. Such unanticipated changes may also result in lower overall performance than if the Fund had not entered into any futures transactions. In addition, the value of a Fund's futures positions may not prove to be perfectly or even highly correlated with the value of its portfolio securities or foreign currencies, limiting a Fund's ability to hedge effectively against interest rate, exchange rate and/or market risk and giving rise to additional risks. There is no assurance of liquidity in the secondary market for purposes of closing out futures positions. The collateral held by the Funds is presented on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities under Deposits with brokers for futures contracts.
During the year ended August 31, 2019 and the ten months ended June 30, 2020, the Funds entered into futures contracts primarily for the strategy of hedging or other purposes, including but not limited to, providing liquidity and equitizing cash.
Offsetting of Financial Assets and Derivatives Assets:
The Funds are subject to various Master Netting Arrangements, which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. The Master Netting Arrangements allow the Funds to close out and net total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single agreement with a counterparty. The Master Netting Arrangements also specify collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Netting Arrangements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net of existing collateral already in place) governed under the reevant Master Netting Arrangement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specified threshold depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Netting Arrangement.
The table below, as of June 30, 2020, discloses both gross information and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and instruments and transactions that are subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement as well as amounts related to collateral held at clearing brokers and counterparties.

All open derivative positions at period end are reflected on each respective Fund's Schedule of Portfolio Investments. The underlying face value of open derivative positions relative to each Fund's net assets at year end is generally representative of the notional amount of open positions to net assets throughout the period.
Investment Transactions and Related Income:
Changes in holdings of investments are accounted for no later than one business day following the trade date. For financial reporting purposes, however, investment transactions are accounted for on trade date on the last business day of the reporting period. Interest income is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued using the effective interest method which adjusts, where applicable, the amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are recorded on the identified cost basis.
Withholding taxes on interest, dividends and gains as a result of certain investments in ADRs by the Funds have been provided for in accordance with each investment's applicable country's tax rules and rates.
Securities Lending:
The Trust has entered into a Master Securities Lending Agreement ("MSLA") with Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank" or the "Agent"). Under the terms of the MSLA, the Funds may lend securities to certain broker-dealers and banks in exchange for collateral in the amount of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned or at least 105% of the value of non-U.S. securities loaned, marked-to-market daily. Any collateral shortfalls associated with increases in the valuation of the securities loaned are adjusted the next business day. The collateral can be received in the form of cash collateral and/or non-cash collateral. Non-cash collateral can include U.S. Government Securities, letters of credit and certificates of deposit. The cash collateral is invested in short-term instruments or cash equivalents, primarily open-end investment companies, as noted on the Funds' Schedules of Portfolio Investments. The Trust does not have effective control of the non-cash collateral and therefore it is not disclosed on the Funds' Schedules of Portfolio Investments. During the time portfolio securities are on loan, the borrower will pay the Funds any dividends or interest paid on such securities plus any fee negotiated between the parties to the lending agreement. The Funds also earn a return from the collateral. The Funds pay the Agent various fees in connection with the investment of cash collateral and fees based on the investment income received from securities lending activities. Securities lending income (net of these fees) is disclosed on the Statements of Operations. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the Funds could experience a delay in recovering their securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them.
Securities lending transactions are entered into by a Fund under the MSLA, which permits the Fund, under certain circumstances such as an event of default, to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts receivable from the counterparty to create a net payment due to or from the Fund.
The following table is a summary of the Funds' securities lending transactions which are subject to offset under the MSLA as of June 30, 2020. These transactions are accounted for as secured borrowings with an overnight and continuous contractual maturity for cash collateral and greater than overnight and continuous contractual maturity for non-cash collateral.

Foreign Currency Translations:
The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities of a Fund denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates on the date of the transactions. The Funds do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are disclosed as Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investment securities and foreign currency translations on the Statements of Operations. Any realized gains or losses from these fluctuations are disclosed as Net realized gains (losses) from investment securities and foreign currency translations on the Statements of Operations.
Foreign Taxes:
The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes related to foreign income received (a portion of which may be reclaimable), capital gains on the sale of securities, and certain foreign currency transactions. All foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the Funds invest.
Distributions to Shareholders:
Distributions of net investment income are monthly for MSCI USA Value Momentum ETF and MSCI USA Small Cap Value Momentum ETF and semi-annually for MSCI International Value Momentum ETF and MSCI Emerging Markets Value Momentum ETF. Each of the Funds distributes any net realized long or short-term capital gains at least annually.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains (collectively, distributions to shareholders) are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. To the extent these "book/tax" differences are permanent in nature (e.g., net operating loss and distribution reclassification), such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences (e.g., wash sales) do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends and distributions exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of capital. Net investment losses incurred by a Fund may be reclassified as an offset to capital on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
As of June 30, 2020, on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences, reclassification adjustments (inclusive of in-kind redemptions as applicable) were as follows:
Total Distributable Earnings/(Loss) | Capital | ||||||||||
USAA MSCI USA Value Momentum ETF | $ | (6,006,737 | ) | $ | 6,006,737 | ||||||
USAA MSCI USA Small Cap Value Momentum ETF | (2,813,685 | ) | 2,813,685 | ||||||||
USAA MSCI International Value Momentum ETF | (166,426 | ) | 166,426 | ||||||||
USAA MSCI Emerging Markets Value Momentum ETF | 28,191 | (28,191 | ) |
Federal Income Taxes:
It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements. The Funds have a tax year end of June 30.
Management of the Funds has reviewed tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by all major tax jurisdictions, including federal (i.e., the last four tax years, which includes the current fiscal tax year end). Management believes that there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken.

5. Risks:
Each Fund may be subject to other risks in addition to these identified risks.
An investment in the Funds' Shares represents an indirect investment in the securities owned by the Funds, some of which will be traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter markets. The value of the securities in which the Funds invest, like other market investments, may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. The value of the securities in which the Funds invest may affect the value of the Funds' Shares. An investment in the Funds' Shares at any point in time may be worth less than the original investment, even after taking into account the reinvestment of the Funds' distributions.
The USAA MSCI International Value Momentum ETF and USAA MSCI Emerging Markets Value Momentum ETF invest in securities of foreign issuers in various countries. Investing on an international basis involves certain risks not involved in domestic investments including the risk of nationalization or expropriation of assets, imposition of currency exchange controls or restrictions on the repatriation of foreign currency, confiscatory taxation, political or financial instability and diplomatic developments, which could affect the value of a Fund's investments in certain foreign countries. Governments of many countries have exercised, and continue to exercise, substantial influence over many aspects of the private sector through the ownership or control of many companies, including some of the largest in these countries. As a result, government actions in the future could have a significant effect on economic conditions which may adversely affect prices of certain portfolio securities. There is also generally less government supervision and regulation of stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies than in the U.S. Dividends or interest on, or proceeds from the sale of, foreign securities may be subject to foreign withholding taxes, and special U.S. tax considerations may apply. Moreover, foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resource self-sufficiency and balance of payments
79
Victory Portfolios II | Notes to Financial Statements — continued June 30, 2020 |
position. The Schedule of Portfolio Investments includes information on each Fund's holdings, including industry and/or geographic composition, as relevant.
The Funds are subject to credit risk with respect to the amount each expects to receive from counterparties for financial instruments entered into by the Funds. The Funds may be negatively impacted if a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties. The Funds may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding and the Funds may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances. The Funds typically enter into transactions with counterparties whose credit ratings are investment grade, as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, judged by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.
An outbreak of respiratory disease called COVID-19 was first detected in China in December 2019 and subsequently spread internationally. The transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread have resulted in international, national and local border closings and other significant travel restrictions and disruptions, significant disruptions to business operations, supply chains and consumer activity, significant challenges in healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines and general concern and uncertainty. These negative impacts have caused significant volatility and declines in global financial markets, which have caused losses for Fund investors during and subsequent to period end. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may be short term or may last for an extended period of time, and in either case could result in a substantial economic downturn or recession. Public health crises may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, economic, market and financial risks. The extent of the impact to the financial performance of the Funds' investments will depend on future developments, including (i) the duration and spread of the outbreak, (ii) the restrictions and advisories, (iii) the effects on the financial markets, and (iv) the effects on the economy overall, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
6. Line of Credit:
For the ten months ended June 30, 2020, the Victory Funds Complex participated in a short-term demand note "Line of Credit" agreement with Citibank. The Line of Credit agreement with Citibank was renewed on June 29, 2020 with a termination date of June 28, 2021. Under the agreement with Citibank, the Victory Funds Complex and USAA Mutual Funds Complex, combined, may borrow up to $600 million, of which $300 million is committed and $300 million is uncommitted. $40 million of the Line of Credit is reserved for use by the Victory Floating Rate Fund (herein, the "Fund"), another series of the Victory Funds Complex, with that Fund paying the related commitment fees for that amount. The purpose of the agreement is to meet temporary or emergency cash needs. For the ten months ended June 30, 2020, Citibank received an annual commitment fee of 0.15% on $300 million for providing the Line of Credit. Each fund in the Victory Funds Complex pays a pro-rata portion of the commitment fees plus any interest (one month LIBOR plus one percent) on amounts borrowed. Effective June 29, 2020, under an amended Line of Credit agreement, Citibank will also receive an annual upfront fee of 0.10% on the $300 million committed line of credit. Each fund in the Victory Funds Complex will pay a pro-rata portion of the upfront fee. Interest charged to each Fund during the period, if applicable, is presented on the Statements of Operations under Line of credit fees.
The average loans for the days outstanding and average interest rate for each Fund during the ten months ended June 30, 2020, were as follows:
Amount Outstanding at June 30, 2020 | Average Borrowing | Days Borrowing Outstanding | Average Interest Rate* | Maximum Borrowing During the Period | |||||||||||||||||||
USAA MSCI International Value Momentum ETF | $ | — | $ | 8,600,000 | 1 | 1.34 | % | $ | 8,600,000 | ||||||||||||||

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of Victory Portfolios II
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of portfolio investments, of VictoryShares USAA MSCI USA Value Momentum ETF, VictoryShares USAA MSCI USA Small Cap Value Momentum ETF, VictoryShares USAA MSCI International Value Momentum ETF, and VictoryShares USAA MSCI Emerging Markets Value Momentum ETF (the "Funds"), each a series of Victory Portfolios II, as of June 30, 2020, and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for the ten months ended June 30, 2020 and for the year ended August 31, 2019, (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of June 30, 2020, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the ten months ended June 30, 2020 and for the year ended August 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Funds' financial highlights and financial statements for the period ended August 31, 2018, were audited by other auditors whose report dated October 25, 2018, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights and financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2020, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers or counterparties were not received. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more investment companies advised by Victory Capital Management, Inc. since 2015.

Proxy Voting and Portfolio Holdings Information
Proxy Voting:
Information regarding the policies and procedures each Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available without charge, upon request, by calling 800-539-3863. The information is also included in the Funds' Statement of Additional Information, which is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Information relating to how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve months ended June 30 is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Availability of Schedules of Portfolio Investments:
The Trust files a complete list of Schedules of Portfolio Investments with the SEC for the first and third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-PORT. Forms N-PORT are available on the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov.
Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Funds, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. These examples are 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 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 January 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020.
The Actual Expense figures in the table below provide 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 "Actual Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
The Hypothetical Expense figures in the table below provide 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. 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.

Liquidity Risk Management Program:
The Victory Funds have adopted and implemented a written liquidity risk management program (the "LRMP") as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Act. The LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk, taking into consideration each Fund's investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed market conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other liquidity management tools such as available funding sources including the Victory Funds Complex Interfund Lending Facility and Line of Credit (discussed in the Notes to Financial Statements). The Board approved the appointment of VCM as the administrator of the LRMP. At an in-person meeting held on February 20, 2020, VCM provided an oral and written report to the Trustees on the operation and effectiveness of the LRMP during the previous year.
VCM manages liquidity risks associated with the Funds' investments by monitoring, among other things, cash and cash equivalents, any use of derivatives, the concentration of investments, the appropriateness of each Fund's investment strategy, and by classifying every fund investment as either highly liquid, moderately liquid, less liquid or illiquid on at least a monthly basis. To assist with the classification of Fund investments, VCM has retained a third-party provider of liquidity evaluation services. This provider determines preliminary liquidity classifications for all portfolio holdings based upon portfolio-level data and certain assumptions provided by VCM. VCM reviews the preliminary liquidity classifications and, when appropriate, considers other information including input from the Funds' portfolio managers (including the portfolio managers employed by any investment sub-advisers) in determining final liquidity classifications.
The report from VCM concluded that the Funds did not experience any significant liquidity challenges during the covered period, and the Funds' LRMP is reasonably designed to assess and manage its liquidity risk. The report also concluded that the LRMP continues to operate adequately and effectively to enable VCM to oversee and manage liquidity risk and ensure each Fund is able to meet redemption requests without significant dilution to the remaining investors' interest in each Fund. During the review period, each Fund's portfolio consisted primarily of highly liquid investments, which are defined as cash and any investments reasonably expected to be converted to cash in current market conditions in three business days or less without significantly changing the market value of the investment. Therefore, the Funds have not adopted a Highly Liquid Investment Minimum. The Funds' investments were below the limitation on illiquid investments during the review period. Additionally, VCM indicated that no events occurred that would require the filing of Form N-LIQUID and recommended no material changes to the LRMP.
