Tax-Managed
Small-Cap Value Portfolio
April 30, 2011
Notes
to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1 Significant
Accounting Policies
Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a
Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a
diversified, open-end management investment company. The
Portfolios investment objective is to achieve long-term
after-tax
returns by investing in a diversified portfolio of value stocks
of small-cap companies. The Declaration of Trust permits the
Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At April 30,
2011, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund and Eaton
Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund held an interest
of 48.1% and 51.9%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of
the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment
Valuation Equity securities (including common
shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S.
securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or
closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place
on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked
prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are
principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ
Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the
NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for
which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not
available are valued at the mean between the latest available
bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity
securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter
market, by a third party pricing service that will use various
techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to,
prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics,
benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying
common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic
events. Short-term debt securities purchased with a remaining
maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value. Investments for which
valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are
deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods
determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees
of the Portfolio in a manner that most fairly reflects the
securitys value, or the amount that the Portfolio might
reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current
sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on
a consideration of all relevant factors, which are likely to
vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may
include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the
existence of any contractual restrictions on the securitys
disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar
securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities,
quotations or relevant information obtained from broker-dealers
or other market participants, information obtained from the
issuer, analysts,
and/or the
appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an
analysis of the companys or entitys financial
condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the
issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and
sold.
B Investment
Transactions Investment transactions for
financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date
basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are
determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for
dividends received in cash
and/or
securities. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest
accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of
discount.
D Federal
Taxes The Portfolio has elected to be treated
as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made
by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable
income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio
is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its
share of taxable income. Since at least one of the
Portfolios investors is a regulated investment company
that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the
Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable
source of income and diversification requirements (under the
Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy
them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its
investors, each investors distributive share of the
Portfolios net investment income, net realized capital
gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or
credit.
As of April 30, 2011, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax
positions that would require financial statement recognition,
de-recognition, or disclosure. Each of the Portfolios
federal tax returns filed in the
3-year
period ended October 31, 2010 remains subject to
examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
E Expense
Reduction State Street Bank and
Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio.
Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced
by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash
balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances,
if any, used to reduce the Portfolios custodian fees are
reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of
Operations.
F Use of
Estimates The preparation of the financial
statements in conformity 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 at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
G Indemnifications
Under the Portfolios organizational documents, its
officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain
liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their
duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain
conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be
deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the
Portfolio. However, the Portfolios Declaration of Trust
contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of
Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the
Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio
interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for
indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder
held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been
an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such
liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the
Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may
contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolios maximum
exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would
involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio
that have not yet occurred.

H Interim Financial
Statements The interim financial statements
relating to April 30, 2011 and for the six months then
ended have not been audited by an independent registered public
accounting firm, but in the opinion of the Portfolios
management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of
the financial statements.
2 Investment
Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and
Research (BMR), a subsidiary of Eaton Vance Management (EVM), as
compensation for management and investment advisory services
rendered to the Portfolio. The fee is computed at an annual rate
of 1.00% of the Portfolios average daily net assets up to
$500 million and is payable monthly. On net assets of
$500 million and over, the annual fee is reduced. Pursuant
to a
sub-advisory
agreement, BMR pays Fox Asset Management LLC (Fox), an affiliate
of EVM, a portion of its adviser fee for
sub-advisory
services provided to the Portfolio. For the six months ended
April 30, 2011, the investment adviser fee was 1.00%
(annualized) of the Portfolios average daily net assets
and amounted to $388,110.
Except for Trustees of the Portfolio who are not members of
EVMs or BMRs organizations, officers and Trustees
receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of
the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are
not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer
receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in
accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation
Plan. For the six months ended April 30, 2011, no
significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and
Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above
organizations.
3 Purchases
and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term
obligations, aggregated $19,546,695 and $19,024,664,
respectively, for the six months ended April 30, 2011.
4 Federal
Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of
investments of the Portfolio at April 30, 2011, as
determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

|
5 Line
of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds
managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $450 million
unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks.
Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the
handling of unusual
and/or
unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged
to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above
either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a
fee computed at an annual rate of 0.10% on the daily unused
portion of the line of credit is allocated among the
participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter.
Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the
Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its
requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not
have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the six
months ended April 30, 2011.
6 Fair
Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value
measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the
assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation
techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of
inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
|
|
|
Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for
identical investments
|
|
|
Level 2 other significant observable inputs
(including quoted prices for similar investments, interest
rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
|
|
|
Level 3 significant unobservable inputs
(including a funds own assumptions in determining the fair
value of investments)
|
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in
different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level
disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The
inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not
necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing
in those securities.

The level classification by major category of investments is the
same as the category presentation in the Portfolio of
Investments.
The Portfolio held no investments or other financial instruments
as of October 31, 2010 whose fair value was determined
using Level 3 inputs. At April 30, 2011, the value of
investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2,
if any, during the six months then ended was not significant.

Board
of Trustees Contract Approval
Overview
of the Contract Review Process
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940
Act), provides, in substance, that each investment
advisory agreement between a fund and its investment adviser
will continue in effect from year to year only if its
continuance is approved at least annually by the funds
board of trustees, including by a vote of a majority of the
trustees who are not interested persons of the fund
(Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of considering such approval.
At a meeting of the Boards of Trustees (each a
Board) of the Eaton Vance group of mutual funds (the
Eaton Vance Funds) held on April 25, 2011, the
Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted
to approve continuation of existing advisory and
sub-advisory
agreements for the Eaton Vance Funds for an additional one-year
period. In voting its approval, the Board relied upon the
affirmative recommendation of the Contract Review Committee of
the Board, which is a committee comprised exclusively of
Independent Trustees. Prior to making its recommendation, the
Contract Review Committee reviewed information furnished for a
series of meetings of the Contract Review Committee held between
February and April 2011. Such information included, among

Board and its committees. Over the course of the twelve-month
period ended April 30, 2011, with respect to one or more
funds, the Board met nine times and the Contract Review
Committee, the Audit Committee, the Governance Committee, the
Portfolio Management Committee and the Compliance Reports and
Regulatory Matters Committee, each of which is a Committee
comprised solely of Independent Trustees, met nine, fifteen,
seven, eight and twelve times, respectively. At such meetings,
the Trustees received, among other things, presentations by the
portfolio managers and other investment professionals of each
adviser relating to the investment performance of each fund and
the investment strategies used in pursuing the funds
investment objective including, where relevant, the use of
derivative instruments, as well as trading policies and
procedures and risk management techniques.
For funds that invest through one or more underlying portfolios,
the Board considered similar information about the portfolio(s)
when considering the approval of advisory agreements. In
addition, in cases where the funds investment adviser has
engaged a
sub-adviser,
the Board considered similar information about the
sub-adviser
when considering the approval of any
sub-advisory
agreement.
The Contract Review Committee was assisted throughout the
contract review process by Goodwin Procter LLP, legal counsel
for the Independent Trustees. The members of the Contract Review
Committee relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own
business judgment in determining the material factors to be
considered in evaluating each advisory and
sub-advisory
agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The
conclusions reached with respect to each advisory and
sub-advisory
agreement were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all the
information provided and not any single factor. Moreover, each
member of the Contract Review Committee may have placed varying
emphasis on particular factors in reaching conclusions with
respect to each advisory and
sub-advisory
agreement.
Results
of the Process
Based on its consideration of the foregoing, and such other
information as it deemed relevant, including the factors and
conclusions described below, the Contract Review Committee
concluded that the continuance of the investment advisory
agreement of Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio (the
Portfolio), the portfolio in which Eaton Vance
Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund (the Fund) invests,
with Boston Management and Research (the Adviser),
and the
sub-advisory
agreement with Fox Asset Management LLC (the
Sub-adviser),
including their fee structures, is in the interests of
shareholders and, therefore, the Contract Review Committee
recommended to the Board approval of each agreement. The Board
accepted the recommendation of the Contract Review Committee as
well as the factors considered and conclusions reached by the
Contract Review Committee with respect to the agreements.
Accordingly, the Board, including a majority of the Independent
Trustees, voted to approve continuation of the investment
advisory agreement and
sub-advisory
agreement for the Portfolio.
Nature,
Extent and Quality of Services
In considering whether to approve the investment advisory
agreement and
sub-advisory
agreement of the Portfolio, the Board evaluated the nature,
extent and quality of services provided to the Portfolio by the
Adviser and the
Sub-adviser.
The Board considered the Advisers and the
Sub-advisers
management capabilities and investment process with respect to
the types of investments held by the Portfolio, including the
education, experience and number of its investment professionals
and other personnel who provide portfolio management, investment
research, and similar services to the Portfolio. The Board also
noted the Advisers in-house equity research capabilities
and experience in managing funds that seek to maximize after-tax
returns. With respect to the Adviser, the Board considered the
Advisers responsibilities supervising the
Sub-adviser.
The Board also took into account the resources dedicated to
portfolio management and other services, including the
compensation methods to recruit and retain investment personnel,
and the time and attention devoted to the Portfolio by senior
management. With respect to the
Sub-adviser,
the Board took into account the resources available to the
Sub-adviser
in fulfilling its duties under the
sub-advisory
agreement and the
Sub-advisers
experience in managing equity portfolios.
The Board also reviewed the compliance programs of the Adviser
and relevant affiliates thereof. Among other matters, the Board
considered compliance and reporting matters relating to personal
trading by investment personnel, selective disclosure of
portfolio holdings, late trading, frequent trading, portfolio
valuation, business continuity and the allocation of investment
opportunities. The Board also evaluated the responses of the
Adviser and its affiliates to requests in recent years from
regulatory authorities such as the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.
The Board considered shareholder and other administrative
services provided or managed by Eaton Vance Management and its
affiliates, including transfer agency and accounting services.
The Board evaluated the benefits to shareholders of investing in
a fund that is a part of a large family of funds, including the
ability, in many cases, to exchange an investment among
different funds without incurring additional sales charges.
After consideration of the foregoing factors, among others, the
Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services
provided by the Adviser and
Sub-adviser,
taken as a whole, are appropriate and consistent with the terms
of the investment advisory agreement and
sub-advisory
agreement.

Fund Performance
The Board compared the Funds investment performance to a
relevant universe of similarly managed funds identified by an
independent data provider and appropriate benchmark indices. The
Board reviewed comparative performance data for the one-, three-
and five-year periods ended September 30, 2010 for the
Fund. The Board concluded that the performance of the Fund was
satisfactory.
Management
Fees and Expenses
The Board reviewed contractual investment advisory fee rates,
including any administrative fee rates, payable by the Portfolio
and the Fund (referred to collectively as management
fees). As part of its review, the Board considered the
management fees and the Funds total expense ratio for the
year ended September 30, 2010, as compared to a group of
similarly managed funds selected by an independent data
provider. The Board also considered factors that had an impact
on Fund expense ratios, as identified by management in response
to inquiries from the Contract Review Committee, as well as
actions being taken to reduce expenses at the Eaton Vance fund
complex level, including the negotiation of reduced fees for
transfer agency and custody services. The Board considered that
the Adviser had waived fees
and/or paid
expenses for the Fund.
After reviewing the foregoing information, and in light of the
nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the
Adviser and the
Sub-adviser,
the Board concluded that the management fees charged for
advisory and related services are reasonable.
Profitability
The Board reviewed the level of profits realized by the Adviser
and relevant affiliates thereof, including the
Sub-adviser,
in providing investment advisory and administrative services to
the Fund, to the Portfolio and to all Eaton Vance Funds as a
group. The Board considered the level of profits realized
without regard to revenue sharing or other payments by the
Adviser and its affiliates to third parties in respect of
distribution services. The Board also considered other direct or
indirect benefits received by the Adviser and its affiliates,
including the
Sub-adviser,
in connection with its relationship with the Fund and the
Portfolio, including the benefits of research services that may
be available to the Adviser or
Sub-Adviser
as a result of securities transactions effected for the
Portfolio and other investment advisory clients.
The Board concluded that, in light of the foregoing factors and
the nature, extent and quality of the services rendered, the
profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates, including
the
Sub-adviser,
are reasonable.
Economies
of Scale
In reviewing management fees and profitability, the Board also
considered the extent to which the Adviser and its affiliates,
on the one hand, and the Fund and the Portfolio, on the other
hand, can expect to realize benefits from economies of scale as
the assets of the Fund and the Portfolio increase. The Board
acknowledged the difficulty in accurately measuring the benefits
resulting from the economies of scale with respect to the
management of any specific fund or group of funds. The Board
reviewed data summarizing the increases and decreases in the
assets of the Fund and of all Eaton Vance Funds as a group over
various time periods, and evaluated the extent to which the
total expense ratio of the Fund and the profitability of the
Adviser and its affiliates may have been affected by such
increases or decreases. Based upon the foregoing, the Board
concluded that the Fund currently shares in the benefits from
economies of scale. The Board also concluded that, assuming
reasonably foreseeable increases in the assets of the Portfolio,
the structure of the advisory fee, which includes breakpoints at
several asset levels, will allow the Fund to continue to benefit
from economies of scale in the future.
