Hodges Mutual Funds


March 31, 2022
 
Dear Shareholder:
 
In recent months volatility once again returned to U.S. stocks, as global economic uncertainty arose from inflationary pressures, supply chain challenges, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Despite eye-popping inflation numbers and the likelihood of several interest rate increases this year, the S&P 500® Index posted a modest loss of 5.79% for the twelve months ending March 31, 2022.  Three out of the four of the Hodges Funds beat their respective benchmarks during the past twelve months, which reflected the continued shift in market leadership that seemed to favor fundamental investing and rewarded individual stock selection.
 
Today, we face an entirely different market environment than just a few months ago. The ongoing earnings recovery that appeared to be building momentum at the end of calendar 2021 now seems more uncertain due to a jagged global economic reopening, a likely recession in Europe, continued supply chain headwinds, significant commodity inflation, and higher interest rates. We believe active portfolio management becomes essential to navigate quickly changing business conditions across many sectors in this environment. Furthermore, prevailing inflation and higher interest rates favored stocks with solid balance sheets and whose underlying assets can produce stable cash flow and earnings. Specific sectors such as materials, agriculture, and energy have recently benefited from the commodities boom, while consumer discretionary and homebuilders have seen meaningful corrections in the past few months.  Furthermore, it is important to note that higher interest rates create a headwind for PE (price/earnings) multiples for stocks.  According to the most recent data published by FactSet, the S&P 500® is trading at approximately 19.5X forward earnings estimates compared to 21.9X a year ago and the five-year average of 18.6X. Although PE multiples have contracted for some growth stocks, the inverse of the S&P 500® quarter-end PE multiple is an earnings yield of 5.13%, which was still well above the rising 10-year Treasury yield of 2.33% at March 31, 2022. Although many industries hardest hit by the pandemic have experienced a meaningful recovery, we still see opportunities for earnings improvement in the months ahead. We acknowledge that some businesses are more likely to experience difficulties associated with rising commodity prices, higher interest rates, and curtailed consumer discretionary spending. However, such challenges can result in new investment opportunities. With this in mind, the Hodges Capital Management investment team has positioned our portfolios to benefit from shifting economic trends and secular and structural changes across different industries.
 
To fight inflation, the Federal Reserve has signaled plans to decrease liquidity over the next 12 months through fewer asset purchases and additional increases in the Fed funds rate. In recent months, capital markets have started to price in this reality, resulting in lower PE multiples for stocks and lower bond prices. As we have mentioned, we spend little time predicting interest rates, foreign currency fluctuations, or future commodity prices. However, we pay close attention to prices and, more importantly, the pricing power that our portfolio companies exhibit within the goods and services they produce. For many businesses, inflation and logistical challenges will adversely impact profit margins and revenues in the months ahead. Companies that exhibit pricing power and a low threat from substitute products can often pass on higher costs and see profit margins benefit from an inflationary environment. As a result, we are overweighting our portfolios with both growth and value stocks that can pass on higher prices, maintain/improve margins, and inflate their earnings in the year ahead.
 
Recent geopolitical turmoil and cost pressures have broken Wallstreet’s crystal ball, which never worked anyway. Investor sentiment is now far less bullish than it was three months ago. Specific sectors of U.S. stocks such as housing, transportation, retail, semiconductors, and other cyclicals have priced in a meaningful slowdown in the months ahead. Recent fund flows into equities and overall cash levels do not indicate that investors are far from the point of euphoria, which we believe creates the ideal condition for active portfolio management.  The big question is: What will investors be willing to pay for future earnings in a rising interest rate environment, and what earnings expectations are priced into individual stock prices? We believe the PE multiple for the broader market has no room to expand if interest rates continue their ascent. However, this is not true for every stock, as we see the potential to unlock value for many under-the-radar companies in our portfolios.
 
We are using the current period of increased volatility to find bargains in well-run businesses that control their own destiny by relying on ingenuity and well-calculated business decisions. Investors in the Hodges Funds can be assured that we are not changing our core investment discipline, designed to seek out quality companies running great businesses with excellent management teams trading at reasonable prices. Furthermore, we see this as an ideal environment for active portfolio managers to carefully select individual stocks that we believe can generate long-term value for shareholders.

Hodges Mutual Funds


Hodges Fund (HDPMX)
 
The Hodges Fund’s (the“Hodges Fund”) total return for the trailing twelve months ending March 31, 2022, amounted to 2.70%, compared to 15.65% for the S&P 500® Index. Relative performance lagged over the past twelve months due to weakness among several transportation, consumer discretionary and technology stocks. Furthermore, the Hodges Fund’s turnover has recently picked up to take advantage of volatile market conditions. We have upgraded many portfolio holdings into companies that we expect to generate above-average returns over the next twelve to eighteen months.
 
While we are encouraged with the Fund’s performance over the past three months, the Hodges Fund’s portfolio managers remain laser-focused on investments where we have the highest conviction based on fundamentals and relative valuations.  The number of positions held in the Fund at March 31, 2022 was 43 down from 47 positions a year ago. On March 31, 2022, the top ten holdings represented 41.39% of the Fund’s holdings. They included Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (CLF), Matador Resources Company (MTDR), Texas Pacific Land Corporation (TPL), Freeport-McMoRan Inc (FCX), Chesapeake Energy Corporation (CHK), Callaway Golf Company (ELY), Uber Technologies, Inc. (UBER), ON Semiconductor Corporation (ON), Commercial Metals Company (CMC), and Frontier Group Holdings Inc (ULCC).

Hodges Small Cap Fund (HDPSX)
 
As of March 31, 2022, the Hodges Small Cap Fund’s (the “Small Cap Fund”) one-year return amounted to gains of 1.12% compared to a loss of 5.79% for the Russell 2000® Index during the same period. Several of the Fund’s energy and material names contributed to relative outperformance over the past year.  Although small-caps underperformed large-cap stocks over the past twelve months, we view the current risk-reward for holding quality small-cap stocks as attractive. While small-cap stocks tend to experience greater volatility during market turmoil, we expect this segment to generate above-average relative risk-adjusted returns over the long term.
 
The Small Cap Fund remains well diversified across industrials, transportation, financial services, technology, and consumer-related names, which we expect to contribute to the Fund’s long-term performance. The Fund recently took profits in several stocks that appeared overvalued relative to their underlying fundamentals and established several new positions with an attractive risk/reward profile. The total number of stocks held in the Fund was reduced from 54 to 47 during the past twelve months. The top ten holdings amounted to 39.56% of the Fund’s holdings and included Commercial Metals Company (CMC), Texas Pacific Land Corporation (TPL), SM Energy Co (SM), Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (CLF), Matador Resources Company (MTDR), Eagle Materials, Inc. (EXP), Silicon Motion Technology Corporation (SIMO), Boyd Gaming Corporation (BYD), Pacira BioSciences, Inc. (PCRX), and Vista Outdoor Inc. (VSTO).

The Hodges Small Intrinsic Value Fund (the “Small Intrinsic Value Fund”) experienced a returned 12.56% compared to a 3.32% return for the Russell 2000® Value Index over the past twelve months. The Small Intrinsic Value Fund’s solid relative performance over the past year was attributed to several of the Fund’s energy and industrial stocks. The top ten holdings represented 37.76% of the Fund’s holdings and included Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (CLF), Stratus Properties Inc. (STRS), Oasis Petroleum Inc. (OAS), Commercial Metals Company (CMC), Horace Mann Educators Corporation (HMN), Vista Outdoor Inc. (VSTO), HighPeak Energy, Inc. (HPK), Comstock Resources Inc (CRK), and Builders FirstSource, Inc.

Hodges Blue Chip Equity Income Fund (HDPBX)
 
The Hodges Blue Chip Equity Income Fund (the “Blue Chip Equity Income Fund”) was up 17.59% compared to a 13.27% return for the Russell 1000® Index for the 12 months ending March 31, 2022. Positive relative performance was attributed to stock selection among a handful of the energy and technology names. Although large-cap stocks have made an impressive move in recent years, we still see the current investing landscape as offering plenty of attractive, high-quality dividend-paying stocks with solid upside potential. We also expect stable corporate profits to support potential dividend increases in the months ahead. The Blue-Chip Equity Income Fund remains well-diversified in companies that we believe can generate above-average income and total returns on a risk-adjusted basis. The top ten holdings represented 48.77% of the Fund’s holdings and included Microsoft Corporation (MSFT), Apple Inc. (AAPL), Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN), Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM), Deere & Company (DE), Union Pacific Corporation (UNP), Eli Lilly And Co (LLY), Texas Instruments Incorporated (TXN), NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA), and ONEOK, Inc. (OKE).

The above discussion is based on the opinions of Eric Marshall, CFA, and is subject to change. It is not intended to be a forecast of future events, a guarantee of future results, and is not a recommendation to buy or sell any security. Portfolio composition and company ownership in the Hodges Funds are subject to daily change.
 
The Fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses must be considered carefully before investing. The statutory and summary prospectuses contain this and other important information about the Hodges Funds, and it may be obtained by calling 866-811-0224, or visiting www.hodgesmutualfunds.com. Read it carefully before investing.
 
Mutual Fund investing involves risk.  Principal loss is possible. Investments in foreign securities involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. These risks are greater for investments in emerging markets. Options and future contracts have the risks of unlimited losses of the underlying holdings due to unanticipated market movements and failure to correctly predict the direction of securities prices, interest rates and currency exchange rates. These risks may be greater than risks associated with more traditional investments. Short sales of securities involve the risk that losses may exceed the original amount invested. Investments in debt securities typically decrease in value when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer term debt securities. Investments in small and medium-capitalization companies involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. Non-diversified funds are more exposed to individual stock volatility than a diversified fund.  Investments in companies that demonstrate special situations or turnarounds, meaning companies that have experienced significant business problems but are believed to have favorable prospects for recovery, involve greater risk.
 
Value investing carries the risk that the market will not recognize a security’s inherent value for a long time, or that a stock judged to be undervalued may be appropriately priced or overvalued.
 
Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against a loss in a declining market.
 
Fund holdings and/or sector allocations are subject to change at any time and are not recommendations to buy or sell any security.
 
Investment performance reflects fee waivers in effect.  In the absence of such waivers, total return would be reduced.
 
The S&P 500® Index is a broad-based unmanaged index of 500 stocks that is widely recognized as representative of the equity market in general.  The Russell 1000® Index is a subset of the Russell 3000® Index and consists of the 1,000 largest companies comprising over 90% of the total market capitalization of all listed stocks.  The Russell 2000® Index consists of the smallest 2,000 companies in a group of 3,000 U.S. companies in the Russell 3000® Index, as ranked by market capitalization. The Russell 2500® Index consists of the smallest 2,500 companies in a group of 3,000 U.S. companies in the Russell 3000® Index, as ranked by market capitalization. The Russell 3000® Index is a stock index consisting of the 3000 largest publicly listed companies, representing about 98% of the total capitalization of the entire U.S. stock market.  You cannot invest directly in an index.  The Russell 2000® Value Index measures the performance of small-cap value segment of the U.S. equity universe. It includes those Russell 2000® companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. The Russell 2000® Value Index is constructed to provide a comprehensive and unbiased barometer for the small-cap value segment. The Index is completely reconstituted annually to ensure larger stocks do not distort the performance and characteristics of the true small-cap opportunity set and that the represented companies continue to reflect value characteristics.

Hodges Mutual Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2022

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

The Hodges Fund, Small Cap Fund, Small Intrinsic Value Fund, and Blue Chip Equity Income Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively 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”. The Hodges Fund commenced operations on October 9, 1992. The Hodges Fund currently offers a Retail Class of shares only. The Small Cap Fund commenced operations on December 18, 2007. The Small Cap Fund currently offers two classes of shares: Retail Class and Institutional Class. The Retail Class commenced operations on December 18, 2007 and the Institutional Class commenced operations on December 12, 2008. The Small Intrinsic Value Fund commenced operations on December 26, 2013 and offers a Retail Class of shares only.  The Blue Chip Equity Income Fund commenced operations on September 10, 2009 and offers a Retail Class of shares only.
 
Each class of shares has equal rights as to earnings and assets except that each class bears its own 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.
 
The investment objective of the Hodges Fund, Small Cap Fund, and Small Intrinsic Value Fund is long-term capital appreciation. The investment objective of the Blue Chip Equity Income Fund is to seek income and 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 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 and asked price will be used.
     
   
Debt securities are valued by using the evaluated mean price supplied by an approved independent pricing service. The independent pricing service may use various valuation methodologies including, matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. These models generally consider such factors as yields or prices of bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity, ratings and general market conditions.
     
   
Exchange traded options are valued at the composite price, using the National Best Bid and Offer quotes (“NBBO”). NBBO consists of the highest bid price and lowest ask price across any of the exchanges on which an option is quoted, thus providing a view across the entire U.S. options marketplace. Composite option pricing calculates the mean of the highest bid price and lowest ask price across the exchanges where the option is traded.
     
   
Securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at their respective fair values as determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee. When a security is “fair valued,” consideration is given to the facts and circumstances relevant to the particular situation, including a review of various factors set forth in the pricing procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Fair value pricing is an inherently subjective process, and no single standard exists for determining fair value. Different funds could reasonably arrive at different values for the same security. The use of fair value pricing by a Fund may cause the net asset value of its shares to differ significantly from the net asset value that would be calculated without regard to such considerations.

Hodges Mutual Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2022 (Continued)

   
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 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 are summaries of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of March 31, 2022. See the Schedules of Investments for industry breakouts.

The Funds have adopted financial reporting rules and regulations that require enhanced disclosure regarding derivatives and hedging activity intending to improve financial reporting of derivative instruments by enabling investors to understand how an entity uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect an entity’s results of operations and financial position.
     
   
Each Fund may invest in options, traded on U.S. and foreign exchanges, on equities, debt and stock indices as a substitute for a comparable market position in the underlying security, to attempt to hedge or limit the exposure of a Fund’s position, and to effect closing transactions. Each Fund may write covered put and call options on securities, securities indices and currencies in which it may invest to serve as a partial hedge against a price decline of the underlying security.

The average absolute notional value of options held and written during the year ended March 31, 2022 was $57,809,222 and $104,050 in the Hodges Fund and Small Cap Fund, respectively.
     
 
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.
     
   
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 actually received or paid. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized gain or loss from investments. Net 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 provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes  has 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 at least 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 capital losses incurred after October 31 and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of each Fund’s next taxable year. Net investment 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.
     
   
As of fiscal year end March 31, 2022, the Funds deferred, on a tax basis, late year and post-October losses of:

Small Cap Fund

Blue Chip Equity Income Fund
   
     
 

   
As of fiscal year end March 31, 2022, the Funds did not have any capital loss carryovers available for federal income tax purposes.
     
   
As of March 31, 2022, the Funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the “more likely-than-not” threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Generally, tax authorities can examine all the tax returns filed for the last three fiscal years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. As of March 31, 2022, 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.
Securities 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. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividends received from REITs generally are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains, and may include return of capital. 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, if any, on securities for the Hodges Fund, Small Cap Fund, and Small Intrinsic Value Fund are normally declared and paid on an annual basis. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income for the Blue Chip Equity Income Fund normally are declared and paid on a quarterly basis. Distributions to shareholders from net realized gains on securities normally are declared and paid on an annual basis.  Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
     
 
F.
Options Contracts. The Funds may purchase call and put options on securities and indices. As the holder of a call option, each Fund has the right to purchase the underlying security at the exercise price at any time until the expiration date. As  a holder of a put option, each Fund has the right to sell the underlying security at the exercise price at any time until the expiration date. The Funds may enter into closing sale transactions with respect to such options, exercise such options, or permit such options to expire. If an option expires on the stipulated date or if a Fund enters into a closing sale transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a Fund exercises a call option, the cost of the security acquired is increased by the premium paid for the call. Each Fund may write (sell) covered put and call options on securities, security indices, and currencies in which it may invest. When a Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by a Fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to reflect the current fair value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from investments. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or, if the premium is less than the amount paid for the


37

Hodges Mutual Funds

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2022 (Continued)

   
closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether a Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Fund. Each Fund, as writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
     
 
G.
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.
     
 
H.
Share Valuation. The net asset value (“NAV”) per share of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by each Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding for each Fund, 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 per share for each Fund is equal to each Fund’s NAV per share. The Hodges Fund Retail Class, Small Cap Fund Retail Class, Small Intrinsic Value Fund, and Blue Chip Equity Income Fund charge a redemption fee equal to 1% of the net amount of redemptions if redeemed within 30 calendar days after purchase. The Institutional Classes of the Hodges Fund and Small Cap Fund charge a redemption fee equal to 1% of the net amount of redemptions if redeemed within 60 calendar days after purchase. These fees are deducted from the redemption proceeds otherwise payable to the shareholder. Each Fund will retain the fee charged as paid-in capital and such fees become part of that Fund’s daily NAV calculation.
     
 
I.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, each Fund enters 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.
     
 
J.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In October 2020, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted new regulations governing the use of derivatives by registered investment companies (“Rule 18f-4”). The Fund will be required to comply with Rule 18f-4 by August 19, 2022. Once implemented, Rule 18f-4 will impose limits on the amount of derivatives a fund can enter into, eliminate the asset segregation framework currently used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act, treat derivatives as senior securities and require funds whose use of derivatives is more than a limited specified exposure amount to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program and appoint a derivatives risk manager. The Fund is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of this provision.
     
   
In December 2020, the SEC adopted a new rule providing a framework for fund valuation practices (“Rule 2a-5”). Rule 2a-5 establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. Rule 2a-5 will permit fund boards to designate certain parties to perform fair value determinations, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions. Rule 2a-5 also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the 1940 Act and the threshold for determining whether a fund must fair value a security. In connection with Rule 2a-5, the SEC also adopted related recordkeeping requirements and is rescinding previously issued guidance, including with respect to the role of a board in determining fair value and the accounting and auditing of fund investments. The Fund will be required to comply with the rules by September 8, 2022. The Fund is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying this provision.
     
 
K.
Reclassification of Capital Accounts.  U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting.  These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.  For the year ended March 31, 2022, the following adjustments were made 1.

These differences are primarily due to adjustments for net operating losses, foreign currency, equalization and reclassification of dividends.

 
L.
Subsequent Events. In preparing these financial statements, management has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. Management has determined that there were no subsequent events that would need to be disclosed in the Funds’ financial statements.

NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Hodges Capital Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) provides the Funds with investment management services under an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”). Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor furnishes all investment advice, office space, certain administrative services, and provides most of the personnel needed by the Funds. As compensation for its services, the Advisor is entitled to a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.85% for the Hodges Fund, Small Cap Fund, Small Intrinsic Value Fund, and 0.65% for the Blue Chip Equity Income Fund, based upon the average daily net assets of each Fund. Effective as of September 1, 2020, the Advisor had contractually agreed to lower its management fee in the Hodges Fund and Small Cap Fund from 0.85% to 0.82% until August 31, 2021 (the “Management Fee Waiver”). This contractual waiver may not be terminated without the approval of the Board. The Advisor has waived its right to receive reimbursement of the portion of its advisory fees waived pursuant to the advisory waiver agreement. Effective September 1, 2021, the Management Fee Waiver was terminated and the management fee returned to its prior rate. For the year ended March 31, 2022, the advisory fees incurred by the Funds are disclosed in the Statements of Operations. The investment advisory fees incurred are paid monthly to the Advisor, net of any monthly waiver or reimbursement discussed below.
 
The Funds are responsible for their own operating expenses. The Advisor has contractually agreed to limit Fund expenses as follows by reducing all or a portion of its fees and reimbursing the Fund expenses so that its ratio of expenses to average net assets will not exceed:
 
 
Hodges Fund
0.93% 1
 
Small Cap Fund
1.15% 1
 
Small Intrinsic Value Fund
1.04%
 
Blue Chip Equity Income Fund
1.05%

 
1
Prior to the termination of the Management Fee Waiver, these amounts were 0.90% and 1.12% for the Hodges Fund and Small Cap Fund, respectively.

Any fees waived and/or any Fund expenses absorbed (excluding any fees waived under the Management Fee Waiver) by the Advisor pursuant to an agreed upon expense cap shall be reimbursed by the respective Fund to the Advisor, if so requested by the Advisor, any time before the end of the third year following the period to which the fee waiver and/or expense absorption relates, provided the aggregate amount of the respective Fund’s current operating expenses for such period does not exceed the lesser expense cap in place at the time of waiver or at the time of reimbursement. Each Fund must pay its current ordinary operating expenses before the Advisor is entitled to any reimbursements of fees and/or expenses. Any such reimbursement is also contingent upon Board’s review and approval. For the year ended March 31, 2022, the amount of fees waived and expenses reimbursed by the Advisor are disclosed in the Statements of Operations.  Amounts due from the Advisor are paid monthly to the Funds, if applicable.
 
At March 31, 2022, the cumulative unreimbursed amount paid and/or waived by the Advisor on behalf of the Hodges Fund, Small Cap Fund, Small Intrinsic Value Fund, and Blue Chip Equity Income Fund that may be recouped was $1,403,316, $69,673, $463,875, and $199,053, respectively. The Advisor may recapture portions of the above amounts no later than the dates stated below:

Each Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plan provides that each Fund’s Retail Class may pay a fee to the Distributor at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. The fee is paid to the Distributor for the sale and distribution of a Fund’s shares and services it provides to shareholders.

NOTE 8 – (COVID-19) PANDEMIC

The global outbreak of COVID-19 (commonly referred to as “coronavirus”) has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. Although vaccines for COVID-19 are becoming more widely available, the ultimate economic fallout from the pandemic, amid the spread of COVID-19 variants, and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries, and individual companies are not known. The operational and financial performance of individual companies and the market in general depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and the pace of recovery which may vary from market to market, and such uncertainty may in turn adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Funds’ investments, impair the Funds’ ability to satisfy redemption requests, and negatively impact the Funds’ performance.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Trustees of Professionally Managed Portfolios
and Shareholders of the Hodges Funds
 
Opinion on the Financial Statements
 
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Hodges Fund, Hodges Small Cap Fund, Hodges Small Intrinsic Value Fund, and Hodges Blue Chip Equity Income Fund (the “Funds”), each a series of Professionally Managed Portfolios (the “Trust”), including the schedule of investments, as of March 31, 2022, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as of March 31, 2022, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and their financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Basis for Opinion
 
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We have served as the auditor of one or more of the funds in the Trust since 1995.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.   Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
 
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2022 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

EXPENSE EXAMPLES For the Six Months Ended March 31, 2022 (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. The 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 (10/1/21-3/31/22).
 
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. You will be charged a redemption fee equal to 1% of the net amount of the redemption if you redeem shares within 30 calendar days after you purchase them for the Hodges Fund Retail Class, Small Cap Fund Retail Class, Small Intrinsic Value Fund, and Blue Chip Equity Income Fund. You will be charged a redemption fee equal to 1% of the net amount of the redemption if you redeem shares within 60 calendar days after you purchase them for the Institutional Class of the Small Cap Fund. An Individual Retirement Account will be charged an 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, 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. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as redemption fees. Therefore, the hypothetical lines of the tables are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

All of the principal accountant’s hours spent on auditing the registrant’s financial statements were attributed to work performed by full‑time permanent employees of the principal accountant.

The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the registrant’s accountant for services to the registrant and to the registrant’s investment advisor (and any other controlling entity, etc.—not sub-advisor) for the last two years.  The audit committee of the board of trustees has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant's investment advisor is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant’s independence.
