CONGRESS FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS April 30, 2023 (Unaudited) |
Large Cap Growth, Mid Cap Growth, and Small Cap Growth (the “Funds”) are each a diversified series of shares of beneficial interest of Professionally Managed Portfolios (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services—Investment Companies.” Large Cap Growth, which originally commenced operations on March 31, 2009, reorganized with the Century Shares Trust effective as of the close of business September 15, 2017, and assumed the accounting and performance history of the Century Shares Trust. Accordingly, Large Cap Growth has now adopted the inception date of the Century Shares Trust, which commenced operations on March 15, 1928. Mid Cap Growth commenced operations on October 31, 2012. Small Cap Growth was reorganized from the Century Small Cap Select Fund, effective as of the close of business September 15, 2017, and assumed the accounting and performance history of the Century Small Cap Select Fund, which commenced operations on December 9, 1999. Both the Century Shares Trust and the Century Small Cap Select Fund were series of the Century Capital Management Trust.
The Funds offer Retail Class and Institutional Class shares. Each class of shares has equal rights as to earnings and assets except that Retail Class shares bear distribution expenses. Each class of shares has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect just that class. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments, are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.
Large Cap Growth and Small Cap Growth’s investment objectives are to seek long-term capital growth. Mid Cap Growth’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation.
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
| A. | Security Valuation. All equity securities, which may include Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”), Business Development Companies (“BDCs”), and Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”), that are traded |
CONGRESS FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS April 30, 2023 (Unaudited) (Continued) |
| | on U.S. or foreign national securities exchanges are valued at the last reported sale price on the exchange on which the security is principally traded or the exchange’s official closing price, if applicable. If, on a particular day, an exchange-traded security does not trade, then the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices will be used. All equity securities, which may include REITs, BDCs, and MLPs, that are not traded on a listed exchange are valued at the last sale price in the over the counter market. If a non-exchange traded security does not trade on a particular day, then the mean between the last quoted closing bid price and asked price will be used. |
| | |
| | Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted a Valuation Policy designating Congress Asset Management Company, LLP (the “Advisor”) as the Funds’ Valuation Designee. Under Rule 2a-5, the Valuation Designee shall determine the fair value of securities for which readily available market quotes are not available in accordance with procedures approved by the Board. |
| | |
| | As described above, the Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are: |
| Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. |
| | |
| Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
| | |
| Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available; representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
| | The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets and other characteristics |
CONGRESS FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS April 30, 2023 (Unaudited) (Continued) |
| | particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. |
| | |
| | The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. |
| | |
| | The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of April 30, 2023. See the Schedules of Investments for industry breakouts. |

| B. | Foreign Currency. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. |
CONGRESS FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS April 30, 2023 (Unaudited) (Continued) |
| | The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net unrealized and realized gain or loss from investments. |
| | |
| | The Funds do not isolate net realized foreign exchange gains or losses that arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates. |
| | |
| C. | Federal Income Taxes. Each Fund has elected to be taxed as a “regulated investment company” and intends to distribute substantially all taxable income to its shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Therefore, no provisions for federal income taxes or excise taxes have been made. |
| | |
| | In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, each Fund intends to declare each year as dividends in each calendar year at least 98.0% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts, if any, from prior years. |
| | |
| | Net income losses incurred after December 31 and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Funds’ next taxable year. |
CONGRESS FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS April 30, 2023 (Unaudited) (Continued) |
| | As of the most recent fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the Funds had capital loss carry-forward and deferred post-October and late-year losses as follows: |
| | | Capital Loss | | | Post-October | | | Late-Year | |
| | | Carry-Forward | | | Losses | | | Losses | |
| Large Cap Growth | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | |
| Mid Cap Growth | | | — | | | | — | | | | 3,019,464 | |
| Small Cap Growth | | | 4,115,070 | | | | — | | | | 1,993,881 | |
| | As of April 30, 2023, the Funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Generally, tax authorities can examine all the tax returns filed for the last three years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. As of April 30, 2023, the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially. |
| | |
| D. | Security Transactions and Investment Income. Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Discounts/premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted/amortized over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex- dividend date. Dividends received from MLPs & REITs generally are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains, and may include return of capital. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Other non-cash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Trust’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. |
| | |
| E. | Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains on securities for the Funds are normally declared and paid on an annual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. |
| | |
| F. | Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
CONGRESS FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS April 30, 2023 (Unaudited) (Continued) |
| G. | Share Valuation. The net asset value (“NAV”) per share of the Funds are calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Funds, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding for the Funds, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading. The offering and redemption price is equal to the Funds’ net asset value per share. The Funds charged a 1.00% redemption fee on shares held less than 90 days, however, the redemption fee was eliminated for Large Cap Growth and Small Cap Growth as of close of business day on September 15, 2017, and Mid Cap Growth as of April 30, 2016. This fee was deducted from the redemption proceeds otherwise payable to the shareholder. The Funds retained the fee charged as paid-in capital and such fees became part of the Funds’ daily NAV calculation. |
| | |
| H. | Guarantees and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote. |
| | |
| I. | Illiquid Securities. Pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act, the Funds have adopted a Board approved liquidity risk management program (the “program”) that requires, among other things, that the Funds limit their illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of net assets. An illiquid investment is any investment that each Fund reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. |
| | |
| J. | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In June 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2022-03, which amends Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2022-03”). ASU 202203 clarifies guidance for fair value measurement of an equity security subject to a contractual sale restriction and establishes new disclosure requirements for such equity securities. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments on their financial statements. |

| K. | Subsequent Events. In preparing these financial statements, the Funds have evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. The Funds have determined that there were no subsequent events that would need to be disclosed in the Funds financial statements. |

EXPENSE EXAMPLES For the Six Months Ended April 30, 2023 (Unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, distribution fees, and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (11/1/2022-4/30/2023).
Actual Expenses
The “Actual” lines of the following tables provide information about actual account values based on actual returns and actual expenses. Although the Funds charge no sales loads, you will be assessed fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks and stop payment orders at prevailing rates charged by Fund Services, the Funds’ transfer agent. If you request that a redemption be made by wire transfer, currently a $15 fee is charged by Fund Services. An Individual Retirement Account will be charged a $15 annual maintenance fee. To the extent the Funds invest in shares of other investment companies as part of their investment strategy, you will indirectly bear your proportionate share of any fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds in which the Funds invest in addition to the expenses of the Funds. Actual expenses of the underlying funds may vary. These expenses are not included in the following examples. The following examples include, but are not limited to, investment advisory fees, fund accounting fees, fund administration fees, custody fees, and transfer agent fees. However, the following examples do not include portfolio trading commissions and related 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 titled, “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Examples for Comparison Purposes
The “Hypothetical” lines of the following tables provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Funds’ actual returns. 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 each Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

STATEMENT REGARDING LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (Unaudited) |
The Funds have adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Board has designated the Advisor to serve as the administrator of the program. Personnel of the Advisor conducts the day-to-day operation of the programs pursuant to policies and procedures administered by the Advisor.
Under the program, the Advisor manages each Fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Funds. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of each Fund’s investments, limiting the amount of each Fund’s illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to each Fund for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. The Advisor’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of each Fund’s investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The Board reviewed a report prepared by the Advisor regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, the Advisor provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing the Funds’ liquidity risk.
