Segall Bryant & Hamill Funds | Shareholder Letter |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
What a difference a year makes. We entered 2022 coming off one of the most profitable two-year periods in the history of the U.S. financial markets. Shortly after the year began, the tides began to turn and by year end, the financial markets had posted steep losses, with many indices generating their worst performance since the financial crisis in 2008.

Janice M. Teague | Carolyn B. Goldhaber |
Chair | President |
The key underpinning of the economic environment of the last 12 years—the program of holding interest rates at or near zero percent—was ended by the Federal Reserve (Fed). The Fed felt compelled to end its program due to a rapid rise in inflation that most forecasters, including the Fed, thought would be “transitory.” That wasn’t the case. Various explanations—the COVID pandemic, supply chain shortages, changes in the labor force, and the war in Ukraine—were all offered as candidates for the source of the rapid rise in inflation. We believe that each of these were simply agents that accelerated or slowed the pace of inflation, thereby hastening or slowing the changes to be brought about in the economy. In our view, change will occur through a reduction of economic activity and prices of financial assets. While painful, such declines are needed before we can expect a new upswing in global economic growth that can then be reflected in the prices of financial assets.
The most frequent question asked by our longtime clients and shareholders is how much longer we believe this transition will take. The only answer, of course, is we don’t know any more than anyone else. What we do know, however, is that our investment teams continue to apply our time-tested discipline of focusing on valuation, whether in our fundamental or our quantitative strategies, to seek mispriced opportunities. Importantly, our teams strive to include, as they always have, an estimate of downside risks in their assessments of the companies they consider, with the goal of protecting shareholder capital in down markets.
Lastly, the Board of Trustees would like to extend our sincere appreciation to Phil Hildebrandt who served as the President of the SBH Funds since May 1, 2018, and we wish him all the best in his retirement. We would also like to welcome Carolyn Goldhaber as the newly elected SBH Funds’ President. Since joining the adviser close to 10 years ago, Carolyn has served on its leadership committee and is currently the President of the firm.
Thank you for your continued investment in the SBH Funds.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Value Fund | Fund Overview |

Manager Commentary
Market Overview and Fund Performance
For the year 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Value Fund returned -14.76% (Retail Class) compared to a return of -14.48% for its benchmark, the Russell 2000® Value Index.
While the easy monetary policy has abated with interest rates rising and, therefore, cost of capital higher, we believe the market has only reacted to the interest rates and not to the longer lagging effects on profit margins and funding requirements, and the impact on the economy. Throughout 2022, the market experienced significant volatility due to an array of events including an unexpected geopolitical event with the war in Ukraine, the Federal Reserve tightening cycle which began in March and continued throughout the year, and the resurgence of supply issues. There was a lot for investors to digest in a short time period and we believe 2023 will likely continue the cycle of volatility as interest rate hikes and a liquidity tightening cycle start to impact the economy more visibly. For us, investing with a Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) mindset remains at the center of our approach; investing the Fund’s capital with management teams that we believe can improve ROIC by becoming more efficient, divesting businesses not deemed core, and improving overall culture and governance matters at their respective companies.
Contributors to Return
Over the last twelve months, the three sectors in the Fund that contributed most to returns on a relative basis were Industrials, Real Estate, and Consumer Discretionary. Modine Manufacturing Co. (MOD), SPX Technologies, Inc. (SPXC), and Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (HP) generated the largest positive contribution to returns on an absolute basis. Modine, under a new CEO, has rapidly hired new talent in its management ranks as it works to execute upon an 80/20 simplification strategy. When this strategy is successfully adopted, we believe it may lead to less complexity, stronger customer relationships, and a greater focus on pricing and improvements. Although Modine is still early in this process, we have already started to see positive signs of its focus on profitability. SPX Technologies’ management has transformed its business by divesting non-core assets and redeploying those proceeds into niche, higher ROIC and higher margin businesses. In our view, the mix of the revenue is attractive with greater than 65% of the business driven by repair/replacement demand which has typically been stable in times of economic weakness. Helmerich & Payne has focused on optimizing its drilling fleet while also focusing capital allocation on debt reduction and shareholder returns. In our view, the team
at HP is focused on ROIC-additive investments and takes a long-term view when making capital decisions, which gives us optimism despite volatile energy markets making HP’s near-term returns less predictable.
Detractors from Return
The three sectors that detracted most over the last twelve months were Consumer Staples, Energy, and Materials. Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (HAIN), Glatfelter Corp. (GLT), and NCR Corp. (NCR) generated the weakest contributions to returns on an absolute basis. Hain suffered from rising energy prices in its U.K. market while also dealing with continued supply chain challenges. Though some of these headwinds are easing, the recovery could take longer than we originally expected. Glatfelter was also caught up in the energy crisis in Europe as it has significant operations in Germany which were impacted by rapidly rising energy prices. The integration of Glatfelter’s acquisition in 2021 has been a headwind to profitability. Glatfelter is now under a new CEO who is looking to quickly take out costs and raise prices to recapture profits lost due to inflation. NCR’s weakness stemmed from the company not being able to sell themselves to private equity as the debt markets were untenable to many. Management at NCR has decided to split the company into two separate businesses and remains open to being acquired if the opportunity arises.
Outlook and Positioning
We would describe 2022 as quietly chaotic with many unexpected macro circumstances. We believe that the market has only adjusted to some of the cost of capital increases. We also believe a recession is highly probable and 2023 will show us how the market will react to contracting profit margins, a factor which usually accompanies economic downturns. It is our view that the key to the market ending 2023 on a strong note will be increased liquidity. We believe there is currently more downside than upside risk in the market; however, 2023 should be full of opportunities to buy quality companies with strong management teams. We think companies with strong balance sheets and stable free cash flow will remain important. We have an ROIC philosophy and seek to find like-minded management teams focused on improving ROIC. We learned much in 2022, not simply about the market, but about resilience in the face of volatile times. This business is not for the faint of heart. Experience is the best teacher, and we believe we are stronger investors entering 2023.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Growth Fund | Fund Overview |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Manager Commentary
Market Overview and Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Growth Fund returned -32.59% (Retail Class) compared to the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000® Growth Index’s -26.36% return. While nearly all asset classes struggled in 2022 due to rapidly rising interest rates and higher levels of inflation, growth stocks were particularly battered. The benchmark posted its worst year since the financial crisis of 2008. Additionally, for the second year in a row, growth stocks were trounced by their value counterparts, lagging the Russell 2000® Value Index by more than 11% in 2022 and 25% in 2021.
The mantra over the last decade has been growth at all costs, particularly in Silicon Valley, where technology investors were happily rewarded for higher growth that was based, in many cases, on only promises of future cash flows down the road. As interest rates have risen, the valuation of these types of growth companies has appropriately come under immense pressure. Meanwhile, investors have favored companies in cyclical sectors in this inflationary backdrop, particularly Energy, Industrials, and Materials. Historically, during economic slowdowns, these have been some of the hardest-hit sectors; however, the resilience in cash flows, especially relative to typical growth sectors, has been impressive. The Fund underperformed for the year largely due to its positioning in the aforementioned cyclical sectors.
Contributors to Return
Two sectors contributed positively to the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark during the year, Real Estate and Information Technology. The three strongest performing stocks, which all rallied in the period, were biotechnology company Turning Point Therapeutics, Inc. (TPTX), enterprise planning software provider Anaplan, Inc. (PLAN), and provider of outsourced clinical development services Medpace Holdings, Inc. (MEDP). Turning Point Therapeutics was acquired by pharmaceutical company Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. (BMY) and Anaplan was bought by private equity firm Thoma Bravo. Despite fears around a slowing funding environment for early-stage biotechnology companies, Medpace continued to see strong demand for its services. The company expects growth to remain strong into 2023, fueled by its large and growing backlog of contracted business. Both Turning Point Therapeutics and Anaplan were sold in the period, while Medpace remained in the Fund at the end of 2022.
Detractors from Return
The three sectors that detracted most from the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark in the period were Energy, Financials, and Industrials. The three weakest stocks, which all fell in the period, were pharmacy automation tools and services provider Omnicell, Inc. (OMCL), independent insurance agency Goosehead Insurance, Inc. (GSHD), and information technology services provider Endava PLC (DAVA). Omnicell reported an abrupt and unexpected slowdown in customer demand. The company’s customer base of large health systems is under considerable financial strain and is slowing implementation of Omnicell’s products and services. We sold the Fund’s position given the highly uncertain outlook over the next 12-18 months. Goosehead was weak as continued growth investments have created margin pressure. Additionally, investors have concerns that a slowdown in housing could reduce demand for new policies. Despite strong growth and profitability, Endava underperformed largely due to a compression in valuations for growth companies as interest rates have risen. We believe the long-term growth prospects for digital transformation services remain attractive.
Outlook and Positioning
Valuation compression in less profitable, higher growth companies is just one consequence of the current backdrop. More importantly, we have seen a sharp fundamental deterioration in many profitable bellwether companies (particularly in the Technology sector) as years of aggressive hiring have now created margin headwinds as growth rapidly slows. As it turns out, companies fueled by near-zero interest rates with little consequence for a focus on returns on invested capital are now pivoting. The ramifications, we believe, will be long-lasting and affect all sectors of the economy. We are focused, as always, on building a portfolio of companies that can demonstrate fundamentally stable growth and cash flow characteristics over the long term.
As of the end of 2022, the Fund was overweight primarily in the Information Technology and Financials sectors and underweight primarily in the Energy and Consumer Staples sectors.
Thank you for your continued interest and support.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Core Fund | Fund Overview |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Manager Commentary
Market Overview and Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Core Fund returned -13.26% (Retail Class) compared to the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000® Index’s -20.44% return. The market pulled back in 2022 as higher inflation led to a rise in interest rates while the outbreak of the Russia/Ukraine war increased uncertainty. As interest rates rose, market multiples contracted, particularly in longer duration assets, as alternative investment options to equities resurfaced. Further, as the cost of capital increased and uncertainty related to the war and global economies grew, higher Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) companies outperformed.
Contributors to Return
On a sector level, Health Care, Information Technology, and Industrials were the largest contributors to the Fund’s performance relative to the benchmark. Agilysys, Inc. (AGYS), a software solutions provider to the hospitality industry, was the largest individual contributor to the Fund’s return. A complete refresh of Agilysys’s software positioned the company to benefit as consumers returned to travel with the COVID-19 pandemic waning. Agilysys’s improved competitive position was punctuated towards the end of 2022 when Marriott chose its software for a multi-year rollout, potentially its largest win ever. Model N, Inc. (MODN), a software provider to Health Care and IT companies, was another large contributor. The transition of Model N’s customers to the cloud reached an inflection point driving organic growth acceleration which, combined with less macroeconomic sensitivity, resulted in multiple expansion.
Detractors From Return
On a sector level, Energy and Utilities were the largest relative detractors from the Fund’s performance. Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (HAIN), a manufacturer of organic and natural food products, was the largest detractor. Hain incurred multiple headwinds through the year including slowing demand in Europe, supply chain issues, and higher input costs which pressured growth and margins. Endava PLC (DAVA), a digital technology outsourcer, was another detractor. Endava’s share price suffered as growing macroeconomic concern and layoffs at its customers created uncertainty about the sustainability of its revenue growth rate.
Outlook and Positioning
We enter 2023 with a sense of caution. While corporate earnings held up reasonably well through 2022, buoyed by excess consumer savings and solid backlogs, there are increasing signs of slowing in economic indicators and corporate commentary. We expect inflation to continue to soften in 2023 which, combined with softer economic conditions as the year progresses, should allow the U.S. Federal Reserve to stop raising interest rates. As inflation likely cools through 2023, however, earnings expectations are likely to continue to fall as the lagged effect of the interest rate increases materializes.
Given the headwinds seen in the data and emerging in corporate earnings results, as we enter 2023, we have weighted the Fund more towards companies that we believe have higher ROIC businesses and solid balance sheets, and that we assess have the ability to generate free cash flow. Lower ROIC companies have been underperforming as interest rates have risen and the outlook has become more uncertain. We would expect lower ROIC companies to continue to underperform should the economy worsen from here. Should fundamental weakness begin to accelerate and translate into a further market sell-off over the next quarter or two, we may begin to rotate out of higher ROIC companies and into smaller market cap, improving/lower ROIC companies that would disproportionately benefit from an economic recovery. Of course, these improving ROIC companies would be augmented with additional key attributes within our philosophical approach such as niche market positioning with defendable competitive advantages and strong management teams. Combined, we believe these attributes have the potential to produce powerful results over market cycles but also allow the Fund to be prepared for risks and surprises – of which we are sure 2023 could be full!

Segall Bryant & Hamill All Cap Fund | Fund Overview |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Manager Commentary
Market Overview and Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill All Cap Fund returned -19.23% (Retail Class) compared to the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 3000® Index’s -19.21% return. Security selection detracted from relative performance while sector allocation contributed, as did the Fund’s allocation to cash. As a reminder, a key element of the Fund’s strategy is to participate in all markets by investing in companies that we believe possess strong management teams, can generate High Return on Invested Capital (ROIC), and produce quality financial metrics (e.g., free cash flow growth, consistent earnings growth, and margin expansion).
Contributors to Return
At the sector level, the strategy’s best performing areas relative to the benchmark during the year were Consumer Discretionary, Financials, and Communication Services. Outperformance in the Consumer Discretionary sector was driven by favorable stock selection as the Fund held outperforming retail positions while also avoiding the negative performance of Tesla, Inc. (TSLA). Outperformance in Financials reflected an improvement in COVID-related mortality trends within life insurers Globe Life (GL) and Reinsurance Group of America, Inc. (RGA). Communication Services performance was aided by avoiding ownership in many sector names that underperformed during the year. These included Meta Platforms Inc. (META) and many other media companies tied to digital advertising that declined significantly during the year due to a weakening economy. At the individual stock level, Quanta Services, Inc. (PWR) outperformed as power grid and renewables spending continues to propel earnings growth and positive sentiment in shares. In addition, Chevron Corp. (CVX) saw outperformance as supportive commodity prices and disciplined spending drove strong cash returns at major energy companies during the year.
Detractors from Returns
Health Care, Information Technology, and Consumer Staples were the largest relative detractors on a sector level for the year. Health Care underperformance was linked to unfavorable stock selection as the Fund had positions that delivered weaker-than-anticipated earnings updates. Information Technology underperformance was tied to many of the Fund’s technology holdings underperforming throughout the year after significant outperformance during 2021. Specifically, rising rates had an outsized negative impact on many of
the Fund’s software holdings and increasing concerns related to an inventory correction in semiconductor holdings weighed on results. Consumer Staples underperformance was due to unfavorable stock selection as the Fund held names that experienced a margin squeeze from a challenging cost environment and adverse operating conditions in China due to COVID. At the individual stock level, underperformance was driven by Alphabet, Inc. (GOOG) as difficult comparisons relative to 2021 and a pullback by advertisers in many categories significantly reduced growth. In addition, profitability was impacted more than expected due to continued headcount growth and investments in the cloud. Underperformance by Marvell Technology, Inc. (MRVL) was tied to concerns related to a semiconductor inventory correction and a slowdown in data center capex spending.
Outlook and Positioning
As we enter 2023, the focus of many investors is on assessing the durability of inflationary pressures and the intentions of the Federal Reserve with respect to interest rates. Determining the timing at the macro level and whether the U.S. enters a recession is nearly an impossible task. Fortunately for us, macro concerns are not a principal part of the selection process in our approach. A key aspect of our approach is to assess company-specific business models against the impact of a new regime of deglobalization, which we expect will reduce ROIC and free cash flow as the global economy is going to labor under building new supply chains and transitioning away from fossil fuels. Both are costly and inflationary and, as a result, company profits are likely to be hit much harder than consensus expectations. For example, we believe the reshoring of semiconductor supply chains should increase chip prices significantly due to rising inventory levels and diversifying suppliers. In addition, sluggish growth—or even a marked decline in inflation—could create negative operating leverage and result in lower margins. All that said, this will not stop us from buying stocks as they move into an attractive valuation range. It always has been, and will always remain, a market of stocks rather than a stock market. In our view, there will always be investments to make in companies with the right set of investment characteristics, priced at valuations that present an attractive opportunity to reach our long-term investment goals.
Thank you for your consideration and continued support.

Manager Commentary
Market Overview and Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Emerging Markets Fund returned -16.17% (Retail Class) compared to the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index’s -20.09% return. The benchmark’s annual return was its worst since the 2008 financial crisis as concerns about higher inflation, supply chain disruptions, rising interest rates, and slowing global growth following the pandemic were exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in March. Regional performance within the benchmark was mixed as Latin America finished in positive territory while Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) and Asia ended the year lower. Within Latin America, commodity exporting nations including Chile and Brazil benefited from sanctions imposed on Russia. Asia finished lower as China’s COVID restrictions, housing market troubles, and tensions with the U.S. increased uncertainty regarding global economic activity. China ended the year down and dragged on other Asian nations including Taiwan and Korea. EMEA was the worst-performing region as the trading of Russian securities was suspended and removed from the benchmark at no value, negatively impacting the benchmark’s return. Hungary and Poland were also a drag for the region over concerns about the war’s effect on Ukraine’s neighbors. Turkey notably ended the year as the best performing country in the benchmark as Turkish investors bought domestic stocks to hedge against the country’s high inflation. All 11 sectors in the benchmark ended the year lower. Information Technology was the worst performer as semiconductor stocks struggled due to weaker PC and smartphone demand. Utilities, a more defensive sector, and Financials, where earnings could benefit from higher interest rates, were the most resilient.
The Fund outperformed its benchmark for the second year in a row with positive security selection in Asia, EMEA, and Latin America. Within Asia, China and India were the top performers while Taiwan was modestly lower. Security selection in Saudi Arabia was the primary driver of positive returns in EMEA and South Africa also contributed. In Latin America, positive stock selection in Mexico and Brazil more than offset negative selection in Peru, Colombia, and Chile. At the sector level, stock selection in Financials, Communication Services, and Health Care added the most to relative returns. Consumer Discretionary and Industrials were the largest detractors.
Outlook and Positioning
Exiting the fiscal year, we are optimistic about the Fund’s performance potential as we look forward given the substantial discounts on certain key valuation measures. The Fund’s holdings at year end have an average price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 5.34x, a price-to-book (P/B) ratio of 0.86x, with a dividend yield (DY) of 5.93%. This compares favorably to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which at year end had a P/E of 10.93x, P/B of 1.57x and a DY of 3.33%. The strategy is even more attractively valued when viewed in contrast to what is currently observed in domestic U.S. markets, represented by the S&P 500® Index, which trades at 18.17x P/E, 3.84x P/B, and a DY of 1.73%.

Segall Bryant & Hamill International Small Cap Fund | Fund Overview |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Manager Commentary
Market Overview and Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill International Small Cap Fund returned -13.31% (Retail Class) compared to the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Small Cap Index, which returned -21.39%. The benchmark’s return was its worst annual return since the 2008 financial crisis as higher inflation driven by pandemic-related distortions and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine led to tighter monetary policies and increased recession fears from a slowdown in economic activity. After falling for the first three quarters of the year, stocks pared losses in the fourth quarter on optimism that inflation had peaked. During the year, the U.S. dollar strengthened versus the euro, pound, and yen as risk-off sentiment sent investors to the perceived safety of dollar assets. All four major benchmark regions ended lower led by the United Kingdom after newly elected prime minister Liz Truss announced a series of unfunded tax cuts that sent stocks and the pound tumbling. The chaos caused Truss to resign after six weeks and the reversal of many of her policies helped U.K. assets to stabilize. Europe also underperformed the broader market, led on the downside by Sweden and Germany, as investors worried that a gas and oil shortage would spark a major energy crisis. These concerns partially abated as the year ended due to warmer weather in the region. In the Far East, the region’s largest constituent, Australia, was the worst performer due in part to metal and mining companies falling on concerns of a global growth slowdown. Japan was the top performing region and ended the year 0.77% higher in local currency terms as the weaker yen benefited exporters. Ten of
11 sectors ended the year lower with the exception being Energy where coal companies gained from buyers seeking substitutes for Russian oil and gas.
The Fund outperformed its benchmark for the second year in a row with strong security selection in Europe, the Far East, the United Kingdom, and Japan. The Fund’s best relative performance within Europe came from Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, while in the Far East, Australia was the primary driver of positive returns. Stock selection was additive in nine of 11 sectors as Industrials, Financials, and Information Technology were the Fund’s top performers. Selection was modestly lower in Consumer Staples and Utilities.
Outlook and Positioning
Exiting the fiscal year, we are optimistic about the Fund’s performance potential as we look forward given the substantial discounts on certain key valuation measures. The Fund’s holdings at year end have an average price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 5.56x, a price-to-book (P/B) ratio of 0.85x, with a dividend yield (DY) of 5.63%. This compares favorably to the MSCI EAFE Small Cap Index which at year end had a P/E of 11.28x, P/B of 1.21x and a DY of 3.10%. The strategy is even more attractively valued when viewed in contrast to what is currently observed in domestic U.S. markets, represented by the Russell 2000® Index, which trades at 10.73x P/E, 1.94x P/B, and a DY of 1.49%.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Fundamental International Small Cap Fund | Fund Overview |

Manager Commentary
Market Overview and Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Fundamental International Small Cap Fund returned -33.89% (Retail Class) compared to the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI ACWI ex USA Small-Cap Index’s -19.97% return. Faced with an abundance of global macroeconomic risks and concerns, including high inflation, rapidly rising interest rates, the war in Ukraine, and the COVID lockdowns in China, to name but a few, global equity markets struggled throughout the year.
Equity valuation levels, especially for companies with high growth rates compressed under the surging U.S. dollar, which explained most of the Fund’s negative performance. In our view, there was a difference between the stock price performance of these companies and their operating performance, which continued to be strong. We attribute this to our strict adherence to identify fundamentally strong companies.
Contributors to Return
The Fund’s relative outperformance and underweighting in Communication Services and its lack of exposure to Real Estate contributed to annual performance relative to the benchmark. From a holdings level, U.K.-based Clipper Logistics PLC (CLG.LN) was a contributor to performance. As one of the U.K.’s leading retail logistics companies, Clipper transformed its business model to accommodate the fast-changing demands of ecommerce retailers. The acceleration of ecommerce transactions due to COVID continued to propel Clipper’s earnings which garnered the attention of potential suitors. During the year, GXO Logistics (GXO) agreed to acquire Clipper at a 32% premium to Clipper’s three-month weighted-average share price.
Hong Kong-listed PAX Global Technology, Ltd. (PAX) contributed to performance as well. PAX is one of the world’s largest electronic-funds-transfer at point-of-sale (EFT-POS) terminal providers with a focus on emerging markets like Brazil. In 2021, speculation arose that PAX terminals may have been used in cyberattacks. Shares had been under pressure despite a lack of evidence of such claims. Our independent research supported maintaining the Fund’s position in PAX shares and we saw the benefits of our patience throughout 2022.
Detractors from Return
The Fund’s relative underperformance and overweighting in Industrials and Consumer Discretionary detracted from the Fund’s performance relative to the benchmark. From a holdings level, U.K.-based Victoria PLC (VCP) was a detractor to performance. Victoria manufactures and distributes primarily carpet, underlay, and tiles mostly for the European residential market. This market is highly fragmented, and Victoria has been a leading consolidator. We believe that the shares have been overlooked given that it operates in a cyclical and capital-intensive industry. We also believe the potential for continued value creative acquisitions is largely misunderstood and should provide opportunity for growth despite the negative sentiment in the industry stemming from inflationary pressures and supply chain issues.
Global pet nutrition company, Swedencare A.B. (publ), also negatively affected the Fund’s performance. The company’s two main product families, ProDen PlaqueOff and NutriScience, are sold in over 50 countries. We believe Swedencare has a significant opportunity to continue increasing penetration of its products in current markets and to launch new and existing products into fast-growing markets such as China. During the year, Swedencare reported strong top-line results but disappointed investors with below-guidance organic growth. Management cited tough comparables and large clients reducing inventory levels. While consumer sentiment remains challenged, exiting the fiscal year, we believe in maintaining the Fund’s position in Swedencare.
Outlook and Positioning
As the macro environment is likely to remain challenging, we are focused on helping to ensure that the Fund has exposure to companies that we believe can continue to flourish even in such an environment. Earnings advances will be vulnerable as companies maneuver around inflationary pressures in the face of slowing growth. We invest in companies we believe offer visibility into future earnings, such as those with recurring revenue streams or those that supply into their customers’ non-discretionary budgets. We believe that quality has been underappreciated by the market and is attractive today. The market sell-off has been largely indiscriminate. Moving forward, we believe companies that continue to generate substantial free cash flow and compelling returns should perform well in a global economic slowdown.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Global All Cap Fund | Fund Overview |

Manager Commentary
Market Overview and Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Global All Cap Fund returned -18.68% (Retail Class) compared to the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI World Index’s -18.14% return. For the year, security selection detracted from relative performance while sector allocation and cash contributed. The investment approach of the Fund is to participate in the global developed markets by investing in companies that we believe possess strong management teams, can generate High Return on Invested Capital (ROIC), and produce quality financial metrics (e.g., free cash flow growth, consistent earnings growth, and margin expansion).
Contributors to Return
At the sector level, the Fund’s best performing areas relative to the benchmark for the year were Consumer Discretionary, Communication Services, and Materials. Outperformance in the Consumer Discretionary sector was driven by favorable stock selection as the Fund held outperforming retail/apparel positions while also avoiding the negative performance of Tesla, Inc. (TSLA). Communication Services performance was aided by avoiding ownership in many sector names that underperformed during the year. These included Meta Platforms Inc., (META) and many other media companies tied to digital advertising that declined significantly during the year due to a weakening economy. Outperformance in Materials was due to gains at quality defensive growers Linde, PLC. (LIN) and Franco-Nevada Corp. (FNV) as both companies maintain idiosyncratic growth drivers in most macroeconomic scenarios. At the individual stock level, Quanta Services, Inc. (PWR) outperformed as power grid and renewables spending continues to propel earnings growth and positive sentiment in shares. In addition, McKesson Corp. (MCK) outperformed as it was rewarded for delivering consistent upside to investor expectations and provided exposure to an end market with resiliency through a volatile macroeconomic environment.
Detractors from Return
For the year, Health Care, Information Technology, and Financials were the largest relative detractors on a sector level. Health Care underperformance was attributable to stock selection as the Fund was invested in select life science services and health care facilities names which delivered disappointing earnings updates. In addition, the Fund was underweight large cap pharma which outperformed by a wide margin and the Fund did not have exposure for much
of the year. Information Technology underperformance was tied to many of the technology holdings underperforming throughout the year after significant outperformance during 2021. Specifically, rising rates had an outsized negative impact on many of the Fund’s software holdings and increasing concerns related to an inventory correction in semiconductor holdings weighed on results. Financials underperformed as declining equity market values were a headwind to fundamentals and sentiment for capital-markets-oriented securities. At the individual stock level, underperformance by Marvell Technology, Inc. (MRVL) was tied to concerns related to a semiconductor inventory correction and a slowdown in data center capex spending. In addition, underperformance was driven by Alphabet, Inc. (GOOG) as difficult comparisons relative to 2021 and a pullback by advertisers in many categories significantly reduced growth. Profitability was also impacted more than expected due to continued headcount growth and investments in the cloud.
Outlook and Positioning
As we enter 2023, the focus of many investors is on assessing the durability of inflationary pressures and the intentions of the Federal Reserve with respect to interest rates. Determining the timing at the macro level and whether we enter a global recession is nearly an impossible task. Fortunately for us, macro concerns are not a principal part of the selection process in our approach. A key aspect of our approach is to assess company-specific business models against the impact of a new regime of deglobalization, which we expect will reduce ROIC and free cash flow as the global economy is going to labor under building new supply chains and transitioning away from fossil fuels. Both are costly and inflationary and as a result, company profits are likely to be hit much harder than consensus expectations. For example, we believe the reshoring of semiconductor supply chains should increase chip prices significantly due to rising inventory levels and diversifying suppliers. In addition, sluggish growth—or even a marked decline in inflation—could create negative operating leverage and result in lower margins. All that said, this will not stop us from buying stocks as they move into an attractive valuation range. It always has been, and will always remain, a market of stocks rather than a stock market. In our view, there will always be investments to make in companies with the right set of investment characteristics, priced at valuations that present an attractive opportunity to reach our long-term investment goals.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Workplace Equality Fund | Fund Overview |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Manager Commentary
Market Overview and Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Workplace Equality Fund returned -21.11% (Retail Class) compared to the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000® Index’s -19.13% return. For the year, security selection detracted from relative performance while sector and cash allocations contributed to returns. As a reminder, a key element of the Fund’s strategy is to invest in companies that we believe maintain progressive and inclusionary human resource policies, whereby diversity is embraced. The universe of investable names includes companies with a commitment to providing equal treatment to employees regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or race. Within the universe, we focus on companies that we believe possess strong management teams, can generate High Return on Invested Capital (ROIC), and produce quality financial metrics (e.g., free cash flow growth, consistent earnings growth, and margin expansion).
Contributors to Return
At the sector level, the Fund’s best performing areas relative to the benchmark during the year were Consumer Discretionary, Communication Services, and Industrials. Within Consumer Discretionary, outperformance was attributable to favorable stock selection as the Fund was invested in high quality brands and retailers such as Dollar General Corp. (DG) while also avoiding the negative performance of Tesla, Inc. (TSLA). Communication Services performance was aided by avoiding ownership in many sector names that underperformed during the year. These included Meta Platforms Inc., (META) and many other media companies tied to digital advertising that declined significantly during the year due to a weakening economy. Industrials outperformed as the Fund was overweight the sector and strong gains from Deere & Co. (DE) and Raytheon Technologies Corp. (RTX) drove most of the outperformance. Both companies have exposure to above average growth markets (agriculture, commercial aerospace, and defense) that investors favored in the year’s mixed macroeconomic environment. At the individual stock level, Chevron Corp. (CVX) outperformed as supportive commodity prices and disciplined spending drove strong cash returns at major energy companies during the year. In addition, McKesson Corp. (MCK) was rewarded as the company delivered consistent upside to investor expectations and provided exposure to an end market with resiliency through a volatile macroeconomic environment.
Detractors from Returns
Information Technology, Consumer Staples, and Health Care were the largest relative detractors on a sector level for the year. Information Technology underperformance was tied to many of the Fund technology holdings underperforming throughout the year after significant outperformance during 2021. Specifically, rising rates
had an outsized negative impact on many of the Fund’s software holdings and increasing concerns related to an inventory correction in semiconductor holdings weighed on results. Consumer Staples underperformance was attributable to unfavorable stock selection as the Fund held names that experienced a margin squeeze from a challenging cost environment and adverse operating conditions in China due to COVID. Health Care underperformance was attributable to unfavorable stock selection as the Fund was invested in select life science services and animal health names which experienced multiple compression. In addition, underperformance in Health Care was due to being underweight in large cap pharma which posted strong returns for the year. At the individual stock level, underperformance was driven by Alphabet, Inc. (GOOG) as difficult comparisons relative to 2021 and a pullback by advertisers in many categories significantly reduced growth. Profitability was also impacted more than expected due to continued headcount growth and investments in the cloud. Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) continues to see increasing macro pressure across both its retail and Amazon Web Services (AWS) segments. Inflation, fuel prices, and rising energy costs have all had a negative impact on sales growth and operating income.
Outlook and Positioning
As we enter 2023, the focus of many investors is on assessing the durability of inflationary pressures and the intentions of the Federal Reserve with respect to interest rates. Determining the timing at the macro level and whether the U.S. enters a recession is nearly an impossible task. Fortunately for us, macro concerns are not a principal part of the selection process in our approach. A key aspect of our approach is to assess company-specific business models against the impact of a new regime of deglobalization, which we expect will reduce ROIC and free cash flow as the global economy is going to labor under building new supply chains and transitioning away from fossil fuels. Both are costly and inflationary and as a result, company profits are likely to be hit much harder than consensus expectations. For example, we believe the reshoring of semiconductor supply chains should increase chip prices significantly due to rising inventory levels and diversifying suppliers. In addition, sluggish growth—or even a marked decline in inflation—could create negative operating leverage and result in lower margins. All that said, this will not stop us from buying stocks as they move into an attractive valuation range. It always has been, and will always remain, a market of stocks rather than a stock market. In our view, there will always be investments to make in companies with the right set of investment characteristics, priced at valuations that present an attractive opportunity to reach our long-term investment goals.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Short Term Plus Fund | Fund Overview |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Manager Commentary
Market Overview
Like the rest of the fixed income market, the segment of the market with the shortest maturities was not immune to the across-the-board increase in interest rates in 2022. The Federal Reserve’s (Fed) interest rate hikes had a pronounced effect on short-term interest rates: 1-year maturity Treasury yields rose to 4.69% from 0.38%, 2-year maturity Treasury yields rose to 4.43% from 0.73%, and 3-year maturity Treasury yields rose to 4.22% from 0.96%.
Although the market rallied in the fourth quarter, this comeback was small comfort as the bond market ended the calendar year with one of its worst returns in history. While corporate spreads narrowed in the fourth quarter from elevated levels, Treasuries outperformed credit for the year as investors worried that the tighter monetary policy would lead to a weaker economic environment.
Fund Performance
The Segall Bryant & Hamill Short Term Plus Fund returned -2.07% (Retail Class) for 2022 compared to a return of -3.69% for its benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Government/Credit 1-3 Year Index. The most significant drivers of the Fund’s relative performance during this period were security selection and duration. In the corporate credit sector, the Fund’s corporate bonds outperformed the benchmark. Also helping relative performance was a shorter duration. The Fund averaged 1.3 years over this period, shorter than the 1.9 years for the benchmark. This helped relative returns as 1- to 3-year Treasury yields rose during the year.
Outlook and Positioning
The bond market, particularly those securities with maturities three years and less, is in a significantly healthier position going into 2023. Shorter maturity bonds currently offer yields above their stated duration. For example, at year end, the yield on the Bloomberg U.S. Government/Credit 1-3 Year Index was 4.7% and the duration was 1.9 years. This yield “cushion” provides investors some return protection should interest rates increase.
Higher interest rates and increased volatility are creating pockets of opportunities for fixed income investors. Exiting the fiscal year, the Fund continues to emphasize liquidity and remains overweight the 0-1 year part of the yield curve relative to the benchmark. This positioning helps provide liquidity to capture future opportunities in an investment landscape characterized by yield levels the market has not experienced in over a decade. Entering 2023, the duration of the Fund’s holdings remains shorter than the benchmark. This positioning reflects our expectation that the Fed will need to continue raising interest rates in its effort to slow the economy and drive down inflationary pressures. The Fund’s high yield exposure remains below historical average (approximately 4% at year-end). Within the corporate sector, as of year-end, the Fund was overweight Industrial and Utility corporate securities, and underweight Financials. Entering 2023, we continue to emphasize higher yielding securities that we believe are higher quality securities overlooked by other investors.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Plus Bond Fund | Fund Overview |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Manager Commentary
Market Overview
The bond market ended the year with its best quarterly return in over two years. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the Agg) was up 1.87% and high yield (HY) bonds returned over 4% in the fourth quarter. While this comeback was welcome relief, the bond market ended 2022 with some of the worst returns in history.
By any measure, 2022 was an outlier. The Agg declined by 13.01%, the previous worst-ever mark being -2.92% in 1994. The decline in high yield of over 11% was the second worst in history. Long-duration assets were among the worst performers for the year, as long Treasuries lost 33% and long corporates lost 26%. After a remarkable year of rate hikes, the Federal Reserve (Fed) ended the year with an overnight Fed Funds rate range of 4.25%-4.5%, after starting the year at 0-0.25%.
Corporate bond spreads tightened across every investment grade (IG) sector in the final quarter of the year but were significantly wider through 2022. Similarly in high yield, the market saw some reprieve in the fourth quarter, as spreads tightened in almost every sector, but calendar year returns remained significantly negative in both absolute and excess return terms. Default rates remained at historically low levels, reflective of healthy corporate fundamentals. While mortgage-backed securities (MBS) posted their best quarter since early 2020, full-year returns were the worst in history by a wide margin.
Fund Performance
The Segall Bryant & Hamill Plus Bond Fund returned -13.13% (Retail Class) for the year versus -13.01% for the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. In relative terms, the Fund benefitted from a modestly short duration position as interest rates rose across the yield curve. Given a backdrop of strong corporate fundamentals, the Fund remained overweighted to corporate credit, including high yield securities, through the year. This resulted in an income advantage over the benchmark, further aided by the shorter average duration of the Fund’s corporate bonds in an inverted yield curve environment.
The overweighted allocation to corporate bonds was detrimental to relative returns although the Fund’s corporate bonds outperformed those in the benchmark due to their lower spread duration. High
yield holdings outperformed investment grade; our stance has been that the Fund’s short duration high yield securities allow for yield pickup without exposing the Fund to interest rate or credit spread volatility further out the yield curve. An underweighted allocation to mortgage-backed securities (MBS) was also beneficial as the sector struggled amid volatile interest rates, along with slower prepayment speeds amid the housing slowdown.
Outlook and Positioning
The fixed income market enters the new year with support for both bullish and bearish views. Fed officials have been consistent in their “higher-for-longer” message regarding the most likely path for rates in 2023. Exiting the fiscal year, estimates of the peak Fed Funds rate were around 5.0%, implying two more quarter-point hikes before pausing. The market has seemed to rally at every hint of a Fed pause or taper, and Fed officials have been consistent in tamping down such optimism. The Fed’s efforts in fighting inflationary pressures will likely remain a major driver of market performance in 2023. That said, the fixed income market enters the new year with more of a yield cushion than existed this time one year ago, and we believe that will be a moderating factor to any further potential rate increases.
Heading into 2023, the Fund remains overweight corporate bonds relative to the benchmark. While we have been adding to its MBS exposure, as of December 31, 2022, the Fund remains underweight this asset class versus the benchmark. Recent prevailing 30-year mortgage rates peaked around 7.35% in early November, and while they have since fallen to around 6.60% as of December 31, 2022, prepayment risk on MBS pools remains low, which prompted us to moderately increase the Fund’s exposure. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund maintains exposure to taxable municipal bonds based on our view that municipal bond fundamentals are strong and offer a compelling yield for the level of risk.
As global markets grapple with mixed economic signals, we expect volatility in the fixed income market to remain high. Higher interest rates continue to create pockets of opportunity for fixed income investors. For the first time in years, the “cushion” that yield can provide gives us comfort about the prospect for returns from the asset class as we move into 2023.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Quality High Yield Fund | Fund Overview |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Manager Commentary
Market Overview
The bond market ended the year with its best quarterly return in over two years. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the Agg) was up 1.87% and high yield (HY) bonds returned 4.17%. While this comeback was welcome relief, the bond market ended the calendar year with some of the worst returns in history.
By any measure, 2022 was a remarkable outlier. The Agg declined by 13.01%, the previous worst-ever mark being -2.92% in 1994. The decline in high yield of 11.19% was the second worst in history. Long-duration assets were among the worst performers for the year, as long Treasuries lost 33% and long corporates lost 26%. For the full year, CCCs (-16.29%) underperformed the broader high yield market, while BB (-10.80%) and B (-10.26%) ratings categories outperformed. The HY default rate ticked slightly higher during the year to 1.6% but remains quite low versus historical standards. While every sector within HY widened over the course of the year, the least amount of widening occurred in the Energy and Utilities sectors.
Fund Performance
The Segall Bryant & Hamill Quality High Yield Fund (Retail Class) returned -9.75% for the year versus -11.18% for its benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index. The Fund’s relative performance in 2022 was driven by our credit selection, which centers around stress testing individual issuers’ cash flows— which helps our team to understand the issuer’s ability to service its debt not only in good times but also during tough periods.
Regarding credit quality, the Fund’s quality bias and focus on capital preservation typically drive an overweight to BBB and BB rated securities, with an underweight to B and CCC rated issues. For the year, higher quality outperformed with rating category returns as follows: -9.79% for intermediate BBBs, -10.80% for BBs, -10.26% for Bs, and -16.29% for CCCs. The Fund’s duration was relatively in line with its benchmark, resulting in a negligible impact to relative performance for the year. However, the yield on the 5-year U.S. Treasury (which carries a duration of 4.4 years as of year-end 2022 and is most closely matched to the overall U.S. HY market) increased from 1.26% at the beginning of the year to 4.00% (i.e., up 274 basis points) at year end which significantly impacted the Fund’s absolute return during 2022.
Outlook and Positioning
The fixed income market enters 2023 with support for both bullish and bearish views. Fed officials have been consistent in their “higher-for-longer” message regarding the most likely path for rates in 2023. Exiting the fiscal year, estimates of the peak Fed Funds rate are around 5.0%, implying two more quarter-point hikes before pausing. The market has seemed to rally at every hint of a Fed pause or taper, and Fed officials have been consistent in tamping down such optimism. The Fed’s efforts in fighting inflationary pressures will likely remain a major driver of market performance in 2023. That said, the fixed income market enters the new year with more of a yield cushion than existed this time one year ago, and that will be a moderating factor to any further potential rate increases.
We remain constructive on high yield bonds as the global markets grapple with mixed economic signals. While we expect volatility to remain high, at fiscal year-end corporate fundamentals remained resilient and default rates sat near historic lows. Higher yields and lower dollar prices are in a more favorable position for high yield investors compared to a year ago. At approximately 9.0% yield, current levels of high yield bonds are more than double where we entered 2022 (4.2%). The average bond price is lower as well ($86.20 versus $103.50). Lower bond prices generally provide more total return opportunity for investors as well as downside protection.
Exiting 2022, our inherent quality bias is represented currently in the Fund by an overweight to BBB and BB rated securities along with an underweight to B and CCC rated securities. This Fund’s composition is driven by our independent, bottom-up fundamental analysis, which includes stress testing each issuer. Entering 2023, the Fund remains invested in what we believe to be several “rising-star” candidates. These are high yield issuers that are exhibiting improving credit quality characteristics which we feel will transition to an investment grade credit rating. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund continues to carry a duration that is relatively in line with the Bloomberg U.S. High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index.
Although no market participant is immune in volatile markets, we believe our approach, which has always favored securities that we consider high quality, may provide some degree of relative protection against market downturns over time.

Manager Commentary
Market Overview
By any measure, 2022 was a remarkable outlier for the fixed income market. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the Agg) returned -13.01%, the previous worst-ever mark being -2.92% in 1994. The decline in high yield of over -11% was the second worst in history. Given the magnitude of rate increases implemented by the Federal Reserve (Fed) over the year, it is no surprise that long-duration assets were among the worst performers for the year, with long Treasuries losing 33% and long corporates losing 26%. Looking ahead, the Fed’s work is not over, and the market is currently pricing in two more quarter-point rate hikes. Recent Fed speakers have emphasized the “higher rates for longer” message, and most economists believe the economy will enter something resembling a recession in 2023. That said, the fixed income market enters the new year with more of a yield cushion than existed this time one year ago, and this may be a moderating factor to any further potential rate increases.
The municipal market ended up being the cleanest dirty shirt in the fixed income market in 2022. This was driven by a strong rally that started in November and continued through the end of the year. We have watched in amazement as municipal AAA ratios (i.e., the yield on an index of AAA-rated municipal bonds vs. the yield on the equivalent Treasury notes) have gone from fair to rich to levels that seem exuberant. We believe there are two reasons for the disconnect between the AAA scale and municipal indices’ performance relative to the broader market. The first reason is that we have continued to see large inflows into low fee products tied to an index. The second reason is due to the underlying construct of municipal market indices, some of which poorly represent the overall market in our opinion. For context, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Municipal Bond Index represents approximately 6% of the total municipal debt outstanding which we believe makes it the most poorly representative index that exists for any market. The growth of passive products and ETFs directly tied to indexes has created a somewhat vicious cycle during periods of inflows. Large inflows continue to go to products that are chasing a very small subset of bonds. We believe this trend will only continue to grow in the years to come as some investors seek a cheaper and easier way to invest compared to an approach we believe may
better serve them in the long-term; one based on diligent research aimed at understanding an underlying market and finding attractive individual municipal bond to invest in.
Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Municipal Opportunities Fund (Retail Class) returned -11.25% (Retail Class) versus -5.95% for the benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. 1-15 Year Municipal Bond Index. The Fund’s underperformance was driven by several factors with the largest being the extension of short callable bonds into long duration assets as rates rose. Our decision to exit a number of these positions before the rally that began in November also detracted from the Fund’s relative performance. We stand by our decision to sell these positions even though the timing was less than ideal. As a silver lining, however, the Fund accrued a significant tax loss cushion, and we believe market dynamics continue to shift in favor of the strategy employed by the Fund.
Outlook and Positioning
Looking back on 2022, we were disappointed with the Fund’s performance for the year. While we went into the year prepared for a slowly rising yield environment, what occurred was the fastest and largest rise in rates ever seen. As we look forward to 2023, we remain steadfast in our belief that the Fund’s investment approach is the best way to allocate capital in the municipal market, particularly given the complexity of its underlying dynamics.
We have done a large restructuring of the Fund heading into 2023 and are hopeful we have seen the worst of negative price movements for this cycle. The most material change in positioning was in the structure of bonds in which the Fund invests. We have moved away from the short call, negative convexity bonds that performed well in a low interest rate, low volatility environment to bonds which do not have, or have only limited, extension risk. We believe we will be entering a cycle in which credit risks will intensify and have positioned the Fund to take advantage of this by moving up in credit quality. While short and abrupt rallies and selloffs may still occur, and volatility will certainly persist, we believe we have positioned the Fund to successfully navigate this environment in 2023 and beyond.

Market Overview
By any measure, 2022 was a remarkable outlier for the fixed income market. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the Agg) returned -13.01%, the previous worst-ever mark being -2.92% in 1994. The decline in high yield of over -11% was the second worst in history. Given the magnitude of rate increases implemented by the Federal Reserve (Fed) over the year, it is no surprise that long-duration assets were among the worst performers for the year, with long Treasuries losing 33% and long corporates losing 26%. Given the increase in rates in 2022 and the expectation for at least a few rate hikes in 2023, the fixed income market enters the new year with more of a yield cushion than existed this time one year ago, and this will be a moderating factor to any further potential rate increases.
The municipal market ended up being the cleanest dirty shirt in the fixed income market in 2022. This was driven by a strong rally that started in November and continued through the end of the year. We have watched in amazement as municipal AAA ratios (i.e., the yield on an index of AAA-rated municipal bonds vs. the yield on the equivalent Treasury notes) have gone from fair to rich to levels that seem exuberant.

The first reason is that we have continued to see large inflows into low fee products tied to an index. The second reason is due to the underlying construct of municipal market indices, some of which poorly represent the overall market in our opinion.
During 2022, Colorado’s (CO) municipal market continued to experience many positives from a credit standpoint. We continued to see positive demographic trends and job creation and business relocations across the state. We have also seen the rise of the cost of living and the stress on the underlying infrastructure of the state due to growth, especially around transportation. These are problems that are not easily or quickly solved, and we believe they could dampen growth going forward.
Fund Performance
For 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Colorado Tax Free Fund returned -10.64% (Retail Class) compared to a return of -5.95% for the benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. 1-15 Year Municipal Bond Index. The Fund’s underperformance was driven by several factors
with the largest being the adverse price behavior that callable bonds (of which the Fund held a considerable amount) exhibit in rising interest rate environments. Looking back on 2022, we were disappointed with the Fund’s performance for the year. While we went into the year prepared for a slowly rising yield environment, what occurred was the fastest and largest rise in rates ever seen. As we look forward, we remain steadfast in our belief that the Fund’s investment approach is the best way to allocate capital in the Colorado municipal market, particularly given the complexity of its underlying dynamics.
Outlook and Positioning
Colorado demographics and fundamentals remain exceptionally strong relative to most places in the United States. One concern worth highlighting is housing in Colorado. The state and major metro areas have ranked at the top of many lists for price increases and new construction, among other things. The future of housing across the country and in Colorado is complicated and it appears housing will face some headwinds. We have turned negative on many new developments that are not 50-75% built out as we believe new build projects are at risk. How these headwinds impact broader credits in the state is yet to be seen and we will keep this in mind when allocating capital.
We have done a large restructuring of the Fund heading into 2023 and are hopeful we have seen the worst of negative price movements for this cycle. The most material change in positioning was in the structure of bonds in which the Fund invests. We have moved away from the short call, negative convexity bonds that performed well in a low interest rate, low volatility environment to bonds which do not have, or have only limited, extension risk. We believe we will be entering a cycle in which credit risks will intensify and have positioned the Fund to take advantage of this by moving up in credit quality. And, in the process, the Fund has accrued a considerable tax loss cushion. While short and abrupt rallies and selloffs may still occur, and volatility will certainly persist, we believe we have positioned the Fund to successfully navigate this environment in 2023 and beyond.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses
As a shareholder of a Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The examples on the next page are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested on July 1, 2022 and held until December 31, 2022.
Actual Expenses. The first line of the table on the next page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second line of the table on the next page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Expenses shown in the table on the next page are meant to highlight ongoing Fund costs only and do not reflect transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and may 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.

TOP 5/BOTTOM 5 STOCK PERFORMANCE CALCULATION METHODOLOGY
The calculation methodology used to construct this table took into account consistently the weighting of every holding in the Fund that contributed to the Fund’s performance during the measurement period, and the table reflects consistently the results of the calculation. The calculation determined the contribution of each Fund holding by calculating the weight (i.e., percentage of the total investments) of each holding multiplied by the rate of return for that holding during the measurement period.
DEFINITION OF TERMS
Beta: A measure of a fund’s sensitivity to market movements. The beta of the market is 1.00 by definition. A beta above 1 is more volatile than the overall market, while a beta below 1 is less volatile.
Bond Rating Categories:
| ● | AAA: An obligation rated “AAA” has the highest rating assigned by Standard & Poor’s. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is extremely strong. |
| ● | AA+: An obligation rated “AA+” differs from the highest rated obligations only in small degree. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is very strong. |
| ● | AA: An obligation rated “AA” differs from the highest rated obligations only in small degree. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is very strong. |
| ● | A: An obligation rated “A” is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher-rated categories. However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is still strong. |
| ● | BBB: An obligation rated “BBB” exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. |
| ● | Below BBB: Obligations rated “BB,” “B,” “CCC,” “CC” and “C” are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics. “BB” indicates the least degree of speculation and “C” the highest. While such obligations will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large uncertainties or major exposures to adverse conditions. Bonds rated “BB” or below are commonly referred to as “junk” bonds. |
| ● | Non-Rated: These bonds are not rated. |
Credit Quality Rating: A rating of an individual bond as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO) such as Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s. Credit quality ratings range from highest, “AAA ” to lowest, “D”. For more information regarding rating methodologies for Standard & Poor’s, visit www.standardandpoors.com and for Moody’s, visit www.moodys.com.
Credit Spread: The difference in yield between two bonds of similar maturity, but different credit quality.
Duration: A generic description of the sensitivity of a bond’s price (as a percentage of initial price) to a change in yield.
EPS (Earnings per Share) Growth: Earnings per share is the portion of a company’s profit allocated to each outstanding share of common stock. EPS growth serves as an indicator of a company’s profitability.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Funds | Important Disclosures |
| December 31, 2022 (Unaudited) |
Emerging Markets: Segall Bryant & Hamill Funds consider emerging market countries to be those countries that are neither U.S. nor developed countries.
Federal Reserve (Fed): The central banking system of the United States.
Free Cash Flow to Total Enterprise Value (FCF/TEV): A valuation metric used to compare the amount of cash a firm generates to the total value of the resources used to generate that cash.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP): The market value of all officially recognized goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time.
Market Capitalization: The market capitalization represents the total value of a company or stock. It is calculated by multiplying the number of shares outstanding by the current price of one share.
Modified Duration: A duration measure in which it is assumed that yield changes do not change the expected cash flows.
Number of Holdings: The Number of Holdings presented excludes short-term investments including money market mutual funds.
OPEC: Is the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries.
Operating Cash Flow to Price (OCF/P): A valuation metric used to compare the amount of cash a firm generates per share from operations to the price of the stock.
Portfolio Turnover Rate: A percentage computed by taking the lesser of purchases or sales of portfolio securities (excluding short-term investments) for the year and dividing it by the monthly average of the market value of the portfolio securities during the year.
Price to Book Value (P/B) Ratio: The P/B ratio is used to compare a company’s book value to its current market price. This ratio compares the market’s valuation of a company to the value of that company as indicated on its financial statements. The higher the ratio, the higher the premium the market is willing to pay for the company above its hard assets.
Price to Cash (P/C) Flow Ratio: The P/C flow ratio is a measure of a firm’s stock price relative to its financial performance. For a fund, the P/C flow ratio is the weighted average of all stocks held in the fund. It represents the amount an investor is willing to pay for a dollar generated from a particular company’s operations.
Price to Earnings (P/E) Ratio: The P/E ratio is a stock’s per share price divided by its per share earnings over a 12-month period. For a fund, the P/E ratio is the weighted average of all stocks held in the fund. The higher the P/E ratio, the more the market is willing to pay for each dollar of annual earnings.
REIT: A REIT is a real estate investment trust. REITs are securities that sell like a stock on a major exchange. REITs invest directly in real estate, either through properties or mortgages.
Return on Equity (ROE): A measure of how well a company used reinvested earnings to generate additional earnings. It is used as a general indication of a company’s efficiency; in other words, how much profit is a company able to generate given the resources provided by its stockholders.
Risk-Adjusted Return: Is a measure of return that incorporates the value of risk involved in the return of an investment. It is intended to help investors compare the returns of investments with varying levels of risk. Risk-adjusted return can be applied to individual securities, mutual funds and portfolios.
Risk On, Risk Off: A concept that describes market sentiment as either “risk on” or “risk off”. During a market sentiment of “risk on”, the market is optimistic and more willing to take on risk in exchange for possibly better returns. When market sentiment is “risk off”, the market is pessimistic and will favor investments with perceived lower risk.
SEC Yield: The SEC Yield is a standardized method of computing return on investment that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires mutual funds to use when advertising their yields. Its objective is to allow a confusion-free comparison of the performance of different funds.

For securities based on a published reference rate and spread, the reference rate and spread (in basis points) are indicated parenthetically. Certain variable rate securities are not based on a published reference rate and spread but are determined by the issuer or agent and are based on current market conditions. These securities, therefore, do not indicate a reference rate and spread. |

Segall Bryant & Hamill Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Interests in the Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Value Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Growth Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Core Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill All Cap Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Emerging Markets Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill International Small Cap Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Fundamental International Small Cap Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Global All Cap Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Workplace Equality Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Short Term Plus Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Plus Bond Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Quality High Yield Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Municipal Opportunities Fund and Segall Bryant & Hamill Colorado Tax Free Fund (the “Funds”) are represented by separate classes of beneficial interest of the Trust, which is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. All of the Funds offer Retail Class and Institutional Class shares. All classes of shares have identical rights to earnings, assets and voting privileges, except for class specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters solely affecting such class.
Each of the Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Value Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Growth Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Small Cap Core Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill All Cap Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Emerging Markets Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill International Small Cap Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Fundamental International Small Cap Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Global All Cap and Segall Bryant & Hamill Workplace Equality Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation. The Segall Bryant & Hamill Short Term Plus Fund seeks to provide current income and competitive total return. Each of the Segall Bryant & Hamill Plus Bond Fund and Segall Bryant & Hamill Quality High Yield Fund seeks to achieve long-term total rate of return consistent with preservation of capital. The Segall Bryant & Hamill Municipal Opportunities Fund seeks income exempt from Federal income taxes. The Segall Bryant & Hamill Colorado Tax Free Fund seeks income exempt from both federal and Colorado state personal income taxes.
The Funds (other than Segall Bryant & Hamill Emerging Markets Fund and Segall Bryant & Hamill Colorado Tax Free Fund, which are non-diversified) are diversified portfolios of the Trust for the purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).
| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. Each Fund is considered an investment company for financial reporting purposes. The following policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for investment companies, under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 – Financial Services – Investment Companies.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements. The actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), ASU 2020-04, which provides optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from the London Interbank Offered Rate and other reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. ASU 2020 04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In March 2021, the administrator for LIBOR announced the extension of the publication of a majority of the USD LIBOR settings to June 30, 2023. Management is continuing to evaluate the potential effect a discontinuation of LIBOR could have on the Fund’s investments and has determined that it is unlikely the ASU’s adoption will have a material impact on the Funds’ financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2022-03 (“ASU 2022-03”), Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)—Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sales Restrictions. The amendments in ASU 2022-clarify that a contractual restriction on a sale of an equity security is not considered a part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. The amendments in ASU 2022-03 also require the following disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions: (i) the fair value of equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions reflected in the balance sheet, (ii) the nature and remaining duration of the restriction(s), and (iii) the circumstances that could cause a lapse in the restriction(s). The amendments in ASU 2022-03 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years for public business entities (early adoption is also permitted). Management is currently evaluating the potential effect that this ASU amendment will have on the Funds’ financial statements.
Cash Equivalents – Each Fund subscribes to the Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH”) Cash Management Service (“CMS”), whereby cash balances are automatically swept into overnight demand deposits with a branch of a pre-approved commercial bank. This fully automated program allows the Funds to earn interest on cash balances. As of December 31, 2022, the cash equivalents balances reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities represent the amounts participating in the BBH CMS.

Segall Bryant & Hamill Funds | Notes to Financial Statements |
| December 31, 2022 |
Investment Valuation – All securities of the Funds are valued as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), currently 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time), on each day that the NYSE is open, subject to provisions in the prospectus and/or Statement of Additional Information regarding pricing at other times in case of an emergency and optional pricing of the Funds in the event that the NYSE does not open for business because of an emergency.
Securities that are traded on a recognized domestic stock exchange are generally valued at the last sales price as of the valuation time on the principal stock exchange on which they are traded. Securities that are principally traded on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation (“NASDAQ”) exchange are generally valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). Unlisted securities that are traded on the domestic over-the-counter market for which last sales prices are available, are generally valued at the last sales price as of the valuation time. In the absence of sales and NOCP, such securities are valued at the bid price.
Securities that are traded on a foreign stock exchange (and that are not listed on a recognized domestic stock exchange or traded on the NASDAQ exchange or the domestic over-the-counter market) are generally valued at the official closing price on the principal stock exchange on which they are traded. When an event occurs subsequent to the close of the foreign exchange and the close of the NYSE that was likely to have changed such value, the fair value of those securities are determined in good faith in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. The Funds will use a fair valuation model provided by an independent pricing service, which is intended to reflect fair value when a security’s value is believed to have been materially affected by a valuation event that has occurred between the close of the exchange or market on which the security is traded and the close of the regular trading day on the NYSE. In the event that closing prices are not available for such foreign securities, such securities are generally valued at the last sales price occurring prior to the closing of its principal exchange.
Forward foreign currency contracts have a fair value determined by an automated system that estimates rates on the basis of the current day foreign currency exchange rates and forward foreign currency exchange rates supplied by a pricing vendor. Foreign currency exchange rates and forward foreign currency exchange rates may generally be obtained at the close of the NYSE. As of December 31, 2022, the Funds did not hold any forward foreign currency contracts.
Redeemable securities issued by open-end registered investment companies are valued at the investment company’s applicable net asset value.
Fixed-income obligations, having a remaining maturity of greater than 60 days, are typically valued at the evaluated prices formulated by an independent pricing service.
On August 18, 2022, the Board approved, effective September 8, 2022, the Adviser as the fund’s valuation designee to be responsible for carrying out pricing and valuation duties in accordance with the Adviser’s Valuation Procedures (the “Procedures”) pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
When market quotations are not readily available or when events occur that make established valuation methods unreliable, securities of the Fund may be valued in good faith by the Advisor with procedures approved by the Board as noted above. Factors which may be considered when determining the value of a security include (a) the fundamental data relating to the investment; (b) an evaluation of the forces which influence the market in which the security is sold, including the liquidity and depth of the market; (c) the market value at date of purchase; (d) information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security or comparable securities; and (e) any other relevant matters.
Securities Traded on Foreign Exchanges – All of the Funds, except the Segall Bryant & Hamill Colorado Tax Free Fund, may invest at least a portion of their assets in foreign securities. As of December 31, 2022, all Funds were primarily invested in securities traded on U.S. exchanges, except Segall Bryant & Hamill Emerging Markets Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill International Small Cap Fund, Segall Bryant & Hamill Fundamental International Small Cap Fund and Segall Bryant & Hamill Global All Cap Fund. In the event that a Fund executes a security transaction on a foreign exchange, the Fund will generally enter into a foreign currency contract to settle the foreign security transaction. Foreign securities may carry more risk than U.S. securities, such as political, market and currency risks. The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange at period end. Amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and investment income are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
The portion of realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed and is included in realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments, when applicable.
Federal Income Taxes – No provision for income taxes is included in the accompanying financial statements, as the Funds intend to distribute to shareholders all taxable investment income and realized gains and otherwise comply with Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies.
As of and during the year ended December 31, 2022, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds file U.S. federal, state, and local tax returns as required. Each Fund’s tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return. Tax returns for open years

Segall Bryant & Hamill Funds | Notes to Financial Statements |
| December 31, 2022 |
have incorporated no uncertain tax positions that require a provision for income taxes. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statements of Operations. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.
When-Issued/Forward Commitment Securities – Each Fund may purchase or sell securities on a “when-issued” or “forward commitment” basis which involves a commitment by the Fund to purchase or sell particular securities with payment and delivery taking place at a future date. During this period, such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. In accordance with SEC guidance, each Fund segregates liquid assets in an amount sufficient to satisfy the purchase price. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis may increase the volatility of the Fund’s net asset value to the extent each Fund makes such purchases while remaining substantially fully invested. Settlements in the ordinary course of business, which may take substantially more than three business days for non-U.S. securities, are not treated by the Funds as “when-issued” or “forward commitment” transactions.
Common Expenses – Expenses of the Trust not attributable solely to one of the Funds are allocated among the Funds based on the relative net assets of each Fund or based on the nature of the expense and its relative applicability to each Fund.
Allocation Between Classes – Investment income earned, realized capital gains and losses, and unrealized appreciation and depreciation are allocated daily to each class of a Fund based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of that Fund. Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the class incurring the expense. Common expenses which are not attributable to a specific class are allocated daily to each class of shares of a Fund based upon its proportionate share of total net assets of that Fund.
Security Transactions and Related Investment Income – For financial reporting purposes, the Funds’ investment transactions and shareholder transactions are recorded on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Foreign dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or as soon as practical after the Funds determine the existence of a dividend declaration after exercising reasonable due diligence. Non-cash dividends, if any, included in dividend income, are recorded at the fair value of the security received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, net of reclaims, and foreign capital gains taxes, if any, have been recorded in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s rules and tax rates. Interest income is accrued as earned. Discounts and premiums on fixed income securities are amortized using the effective interest method. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments are reported on an identified cost basis.
Investments in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) – With respect to each Fund, dividend income is recorded based on the income included in distributions received from its REIT investments using published REIT reclassifications including some management estimates when actual amounts are not available. Distributions received in excess of these estimated amounts are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments or reclassified to capital gains. The actual amounts of income, return of capital, and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after its fiscal year end and may differ from the estimated amounts.
| 3. | CERTAIN INVESTMENTS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS |
Market, Credit and Counterparty Risk – In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities and enter into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the issuer of a security to meet all of its obligations (issuer credit risk). The value of securities held by the Funds may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Funds; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional, national or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to issuer credit risk, the Funds may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments. The Funds manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that they believe have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.
Country Risk – As of December 31, 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Emerging Markets Fund invested a significant percentage of its assets in China; and the Segall Bryant & Hamill International Small Cap Fund invested a significant percentage of its assets in Japan. Therefore, they may be more affected by economic developments and currency fluctuations in these countries.
On February 24, 2022, Russia commenced a military attack on Ukraine. The outbreak of hostilities between the two countries could result in more widespread conflict and could have a severe adverse effect on the region and the markets. In addition, sanctions imposed on Russia by the United States and other countries, and any sanctions imposed in the future could have a significant adverse impact on the Russian economy and related markets. The price and liquidity of investments may fluctuate widely as a result of the conflict and related events. How long such conflict and related events will last and whether it will escalate further cannot be predicted, nor its effect on the Funds. As of December 31, 2022, the Segall Bryant & Hamill Emerging Markets Fund had investments in Russia. These investments are valued at zero.
Sector Concentration Risk – The Funds may concentrate investments in companies that are in a single sector or related sector. Concentrating investments in a single sector may make the Fund more susceptible to adverse economic, business, regulatory or other developments affecting that sector. If an economic downturn occurs in a sector in which a Fund’s investments are concentrated, the Fund may perform poorly during that period. Refer to each Fund’s Statement of Investments for its particular concentration in the various sectors.

The Funds recharacterize distributions received from Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) investments based on information provided by the REIT into the following categories: ordinary income, long-term capital gains, and return of capital. If information is not available on a timely basis from the REIT, the recharacterization will be estimated based on available information which may include the previous year’s allocation. If new or additional information becomes available from the REIT at a later date, a recharacterization will be made in the following year.
As a result of several court cases in certain countries across the European Union (“EU”), some Funds may file European tax reclaims for previously withheld taxes on dividends earned in those countries. These additional filings are subject to various administrative proceedings by the local jurisdictions’ tax authorities within the EU, as well as a number of related judicial proceedings. If any such reclaims are received, they are reflected as dividend income in the Statements of Operations, and related receivables, if any, are reflected within foreign tax reclaims receivable in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. If the associated cash is received, the Funds will follow, for tax purposes, IRS guidance in Notice 2016-10 and reduce the current year foreign taxes paid by the amount of the refund. When uncertainty exists as to the ultimate resolution of these proceedings and the likelihood of receipt of these EU reclaims, no amounts are reflected in the financial statements.

Ultimus, pursuant to a Transfer Agency Agreement, serves as Transfer Agent for each of the Funds. As Transfer Agent, Ultimus has, among other things, agreed to: (a) issue and redeem shares of the Funds; (b) make dividend and other distributions to shareholders of the Funds; (c) effect transfers of shares; (d) mail communications to shareholders of the Funds, including account statements, confirmations, and dividend and distribution notices; (e) facilitate the electronic delivery of shareholder statements and reports and (f) maintain shareholder accounts. Under the Transfer Agency Agreement, Ultimus receives from the Trust an annual minimum fee per Fund, a fee based upon each shareholder account and is reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses.
Certain officers of the Funds are also officers of the Adviser and Ultimus. All access persons of the Trust, as defined in the 1940 Act, and officers and employees of the Adviser, follow strict guidelines and policies on personal trading as outlined in the Trust’s and the Adviser’s respective Code of Ethics.
The Trust has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer who is also the Treasurer of the Trust and an employee of the Adviser. The Trust agreed to have the Funds pay the portion of his compensation attributable for services rendered as the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer.
The Trust has a Trustee Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferral Plan”) which allows the Trustees to defer the receipt of all or a portion of Trustees fees. Under the Deferral Plan, Trustee fees are paid and invested directly into shares of the Funds elected by the Trustees in the Deferral Plan. There is no future liability related to the balance in the Deferral Plan as such amounts are paid directly out of the respective capital accounts of the elected Funds. The amount paid to the Trustees under the Deferral Plan will be determined based upon the performance of the elected funds. The balance in the Deferral Plan as of December 31, 2022 is $718,648.
| 7. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
A three-tier hierarchy has been established to measure fair value based on the extent of use of “observable inputs” as compared to “unobservable inputs” for disclosure purposes and requires additional disclosures about these valuation measurements. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing a security. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the security developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the security developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The three-tier hierarchy is summarized as follows:
| 1) | Level 1 – Unadjusted Quoted Prices in active markets for identical investments |
| 2) | Level 2 – Other Significant Observable Inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
| 3) | Level 3 – Significant Unobservable Inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
The following is a summary of each Fund’s investments and other financial instruments (if any) and the inputs used to value the investments and other financial instruments as of December 31, 2022:

| (1) | The investment adviser considers relevant indications of value that are reasonably and timely available to it in determining the fair value to be assigned to a particular security, such as the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions. The Fund’s use of fair value pricing may cause the net asset value of Fund shares to differ from the net asset value that would be calculated using market quotations. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security may be materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of that security. |

| (2) | This column represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that would result from an increase to the corresponding unobservable input. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. For Segall Bryant & Hamill International Small Cap Fund there was no change. |
Summary of Unobservable Inputs for Level 3 Investments
The ongoing conflict in Russia and Ukraine has led to significant disruption and volatility in the global stock market. This impacted the Fund in terms of suspensions of trading activities on the Russian Stock Exchange as well as suspensions of depositary receipts traded on exchanges outside of Russia. As a result, management made the decision to value all Russian securities at nil.
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
For fair value measurements using significant other observable inputs (Level 2), the Funds utilize an independent pricing service which utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information, and for structured securities also incorporate cash flow and, when available, loan performance data. The independent pricing service’s evaluated pricing models apply available market information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of similar securities, and sector groupings. For certain securities, the independent pricing service uses model processes, such as the Option Adjusted Spread (benchmark driven) model, to assess interest rate impact and develop prepayment scenarios. With respect to trades and bids, the independent pricing service reviews the lot size to determine whether the information is representative of an orderly trading market. If the independent pricing service determines that trade or bid information is not consistent with other information available, the trade or bid will not be reflected in the evaluated price.
Corporate bonds, Municipal bonds and U.S. Treasury bonds & notes are valued using market models that consider trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information. Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are valued based on models that consider trade data, prepayment and default projections, benchmark yield and spread data and estimated cash flows of each tranche of the issuer. Forward foreign currency contracts are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or independent pricing services.
In the event the independent pricing service is unable to provide an evaluated price for a security or the Adviser believes the price provided is not reliable, securities of the Funds may be valued in good faith as described above in Note 2. The Adviser may seek to find an alternative independent source, such as a broker/dealer to provide a price quote, or by using evaluated pricing models similar to the techniques and models used by the independent pricing service. These fair value measurement techniques may utilize unobservable inputs (Level 3).
| 8. | FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS |
The Segall Bryant & Hamill Fundamental International Small Cap Fund may purchase or sell foreign currencies on a “spot” or cash basis at the prevailing rate in the foreign currency exchange market to settle investment transactions in the proper currency. In addition, this Fund may purchase or sell forward currency contracts to adjust the portfolio’s exposure to different currencies consistent with the investment team’s targets, which consider the currency weightings within the Fund’s benchmark index.
When entering into a spot or forward foreign currency contract, the Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed upon price on an agreed future date. These contracts are valued at each portfolio valuation, and the Fund’s net equity therein, representing unrealized gain or loss on the contracts as measured by the difference between the contractual rates at the dates of entry into the contracts and the spot or forward rates at the reporting date, is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gains and losses and change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation are included in the Statements of Operations. These instruments involve credit risk and market risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movement in currency exchange rates.
The Fund must segregate assets determined to be liquid in accordance with procedures established by the Board of Trustees, or otherwise cover its position in a permissible manner.
The forward foreign currency contracts were held during the period from January 1, 2022 to August 31, 2022. The Fund had average forward foreign currency contract values to buy and sell of $40,402,830 and $41,106,296, respectively.

In the normal course of business, the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on claims that may be made against the Funds in the future and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, the risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

At these meetings and throughout the consideration process, the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”), was advised by its independent legal counsel.
In anticipation of the Board of Trustees’ meetings on October 20, 2022, and November 16 - 17, 2022, and as part of the process to consider the continuation of the Advisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, legal counsel to the Independent Trustees requested certain information from SBH. In response to these requests, the Independent Trustees received reports from SBH that addressed specific factors to be considered by the Board. The Board also received from counsel a memorandum regarding the Board’s responsibilities pertaining to the approval of the continuation of the Advisory Agreement. Further, the Board met with representatives of SBH and discussed the services of the firm provided pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, as well as the information provided by SBH.
As part of its evaluation of the continuation of the Advisory Agreement, the Board received and considered information from SBH designed to provide the Trustees with the information necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Agreement, including the general plans and intentions regarding each Fund. During the review process, the Board noted the totality of the information provided with respect to the continuation of the Advisory Agreements, and the Board determined it had received sufficient information to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement. Based on its evaluation, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the terms of the Advisory Agreement continue to be reasonable and fair and that its approval was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders. In approving SBH to continue serving as investment adviser to the Funds, and the fees charged under the Advisory Agreement, the Board concluded that no single factor reviewed by the Board was identified by the Board to be determinative as the principal factor in whether to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement. The following summary does not identify all the matters considered by the Board, but provides a summary of the principal matters the Board considered.

The Board also reviewed the research and decision-making processes utilized by SBH, including the methods adopted to seek to achieve compliance with the investment objectives, policies and restrictions of each Fund. The Board also reviewed accompanying compliance-related materials with respect to the Trust, and not a particular Fund, and noted that they received reports on these services and compliance issues from Trust officers and SBH periodically throughout the year. Taking into account the totality of the information considered, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services rendered by SBH under the Advisory Agreement were adequate.

The Board considered certain information provided regarding the gross investment advisory fee rate paid by each Fund, including comparisons against the fee rates of funds in peer groups selected by an independent provider of investment company data.

The Board also noted the limitations of these comparisons given the differences in terms of strategy and processes, but determined that, based on the information presented, the comparable account fee rates were not indicative of any unreasonableness with respect to the advisory fee rates payable by the Funds in question.

The Board was also provided with CI Financial’s audited financial information as well as information regarding SBH’s other revenue streams and potential liabilities. The Board also considered SBH’s statements regarding its commitment to the Funds. The Board determined that SBH’s profitability in connection with its management of the Funds is not unreasonable.
Economies of Scale
The Board considered whether economies of scale in the provision of services to each Fund are being passed along to the shareholders. The Board noted the Adviser’s statements regarding economies of scale it has experienced in connection with its management of the Funds in light of the expense limitation agreements in effect for certain of the Funds. To the extent available, the Board concluded that the Funds could be expected to share in economies of scale realized by SBH if Fund assets were to increase.

| ● | The Board noted that the total net expense ratios for each Fund were lower than or near their respective peer group medians. |
| ● | Bearing in mind the limitations of comparing different types of managed accounts and the different levels of service typically associated with such accounts, the fee structures applicable to certain of SBH’s other clients employing strategies comparable to those of certain of the Funds, as applicable, were not indicative of any unreasonableness with respect to the advisory fee rates payable by each Fund; |
| ● | The profit, if any, realized by SBH in connection with its management of the Funds is not unreasonable; and |
| ● | To the extent available, the Funds could be expected to share in economies of scale to be realized by SBH if Fund assets were to increase. |

| ● | For the three-year period ended June 30, 2022, as applicable, each class of each Fund outperformed its respective peer group median, except for each class of the Workplace Equality Fund, Global All Cap Fund, International Small Cap Fund, and Emerging Markets Fund, and the institutional classes of the Short Term Plus Fund and Small Cap Value Fund, which underperformed their respective peer group medians. |
