Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio as of April 30, 2005

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1  Significant Accounting Policies

Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio (the Portfolio) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified open-end management investment company. The Portfolio, which was organized as a trust under the laws of the State of New York on December 10, 2001, seeks 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, 2005, the Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund and the Eaton Vance Tax Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund held 48.7% and 51.0% interests in the Portfolio, respectively. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles gene rally accepted in the United States of America.

AInvestment Valuation - Securities listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale 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 National Market System generally are valued at the official NASDAQ closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the lat est 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 an independent pricing service. Exchange-traded options are valued at the last sale price for the day of valuation as quoted on the principal exchange or board of trade on which the options are traded or, in the absence of sales on such date, at the mean between the latest bid and asked prices therefore. Futures positions on securities and currencies generally are valued at closing settlement prices. Short-term debt securities with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost. If short-term debt securities were acquired with a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, their amortized cost value will be based on their value on the sixty-first day prior to maturity. Other fixed income and debt securities, including listed securities and securities for which price quotations are available, will normally be valued on the basis of valuations furn ished by a pricing service. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by an independent quotation service. The daily valuation of exchange traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair valued securities. Investments held by the Portfolio for which valuations or market quotations are unavailable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio considering relevant factors, data and information including the market value of freely tradable securities of the same class in the principal market on which such securities are normally traded.

BIncome - Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.

CIncome Taxes - The Portfolio is 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 the Portfolio's investors include regulated investment companies that invest all or substantially all of their assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Int ernal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate at least annually among its investors each investor's distributive share of the Portfolio's net investment income, net realized capital gains, and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.

DFinancial Futures Contract - Upon entering a financial futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit either in cash or securities an amount (initial margin) equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price indicated in the financial futures contract. Subsequent payments are made or received by the Portfolio (margin maintenance) each day, dependent on daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, and are recorded for book purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio.

19

Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio as of April 30, 2005

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)CONT'D

The Portfolio's investment in financial futures contracts is designed to hedge against anticipated future changes in price of current or anticipated Portfolio positions. Should prices move unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss.

EPut Options - Upon the purchase of a put option by the Portfolio, the premium paid is recorded as an investment, the value of which is marked-to-market daily. When a purchased option expires, the Portfolio will realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. When the Portfolio enters into a closing sale transaction, the Portfolio will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. When the Portfolio exercises a put option, settlement is made in cash. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid.

FSecurities Sold Short - The Portfolio may sell a security short if it owns at least an equal amount of the security sold short or another security convertible or exchangeable for an equal amount of the security sold short. Such transactions are done in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities or in order to hedge portfolio positions. The Portfolio will generally borrow the security sold in order to make delivery to the buyer. Upon executing the transaction, the Portfolio records the proceeds as deposits with brokers in the Statement of Asset s and Liabilities and establishes an offsetting payable for securities sold short for the securities due on settlement. The proceeds are retained by the broker as collateral for the short position. The liability is marked-to-market and the Portfolio is required to pay the lending broker any dividend or interest income earned while the short position is open. A gain or loss is recorded when the security is delivered to the broker. The Portfolio may recognize a loss on the transaction if the market value of the securities sold increases before the securities are delivered.

GForeign Currency Translation - Investment valuations, other assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses are converted into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net real ized gains and losses on investments.

That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.

HExpense Reduction - Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, IBT receives a fee reduced by credits which are determined based on the average daily cash balances the Portfolio maintains with IBT. All credit balances used to reduce the Portfolio's custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses on the Statement of Operations.

IIndemnifications - Under the Portfolio's 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. Interestholders in the Portfolio are jointly and severally liable for the liabilities and obligations of the Portfolio in the event that the Portfolio fails to satisfy such liabilities and obligations; provided, however, that, to the extent assets are available in the Portfolio, the Portfolio may, under certain circumstances, indemnify interestholder s from and against any claim or liability to which such holder may become subject by reason of being or having been an interestholder in the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio's 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.

JUse 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.

KOther - Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis.

LInterim Financial Statements - The interim financial statements relating to April 30, 2005 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of the Portfolio's 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 wholly-owned subsidiary of Eaton Vance Management (EVM), as compensation for management and investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. Under the advisory agreement, BMR receives a monthly advisory fee in the amount of 1.00% annually of average daily net assets of the Portfolio up to $500 million, and at reduced rates as daily net assets exceed that level. For the six months ended April 30, 2005, the advisory fee amounted to $290,285. Pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement, BMR has delegated the investment management of the Portfolio to Fox Asset Management LLC (Fox), a majority-owned subsidiary of EVM. BMR pays Fox a monthly fee for sub-advisory services provided to the Portfolio in the amount of 0.75% annually of average daily net assets up to $500 million, and at reduced rates as daily net assets ex ceed that level. Except for Trustees of the Portfolio who are not members of EVM's or BMR's organization, 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 BMR 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, 2005, no significant amounts have been deferred.

Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

3  Investment Transactions

Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $4,665,111 and $6,439,212, respectively, for the six months ended April 30, 2005.

4  Federal Income Tax Basis of Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of the investments owned at April 30, 2005, as computed on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

Aggregate cost	$	39,733,782
Gross unrealized appreciation	$	12,863,002
Gross unrealized depreciation		(1,115,279	)
Net unrealized appreciation	$	11,747,723

5  Financial Instruments

The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities to assist in managing exposure to various market risks. These financial instruments include written options and financial futures contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and does not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered. The Portfolio did not have any open obligations under these financial instruments at April 30, 2005.

6  Line of Credit

The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by BMR and EVM and its affiliates in a $150 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings will be made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to each participating portfolio or fund 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. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees for the six months ended April 30, 2005.

7  Interestholder Meeting

The Portfolio held a Special Meeting of Interestholders on April 29, 2005 to elect Trustees. The results of the vote were as follows:

	Interest in the Portfolio
Nominee for Trustee	Affirmative			Withhold
Benjamin C. Esty		99	%		1	%
James B. Hawkes		99	%		1	%
Samuel L. Hayes, III		99	%		1	%

Norton H. Reamer		99	%		1	%
Lynn A. Stout		99	%		1	%

Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund

BOARD OF TRUSTEES' ANNUAL APPROVAL OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS

The investment advisory agreement between Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio (the "Portfolio") and the investment adviser, Boston Management and Research, and the investment sub-advisory agreement between the investment adviser and the sub-adviser, Fox Asset Management LLC ("Fox"), each provide that the agreement will continue in effect from year to year so long as its continuance is approved at least annually (i) by a vote of a majority of the noninterested Trustees of the Portfolio cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval and (ii) by the Trustees of the Portfolio or by vote of a majority of the outstanding interests of the Portfolio.

In considering the annual approval of the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements, the Special Committee of the Board of Trustees considered information that had been provided throughout the year at regular Board meetings, as well as information furnished for a series of meetings held in February and March in preparation for a Board meeting held on March 21, 2005 to specifically consider the renewal of the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements. Such information included, among other things, the following:

•  An independent report comparing the advisory fees of the Portfolio with those of comparable funds;

•  An independent report comparing the expense ratio of the Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund (the "Fund") to those of comparable funds;

•  Information regarding Fund investment performance in comparison to relevant peer groups of funds and appropriate indices;

•  The economic outlook and the general investment outlook in relevant investment markets;

•  Eaton Vance Management's ("Eaton Vance") results and financial condition and the overall organization of the investment adviser;

•  The procedures and processes used to determine the fair value of Fund assets and actions taken to monitor and test the effectiveness of such procedures and processes;

•  The allocation of brokerage and the benefits received by the investment adviser as the result of brokerage allocation;

•  Eaton Vance's management of the relationship with the custodian, subcustodians and fund accountants;

•  The resources devoted to compliance efforts undertaken by Eaton Vance and Fox, where applicable, on behalf of the funds they manage and the record of compliance with the investment policies and restrictions and with policies on personal securities transactions;

•  The quality, nature, cost and character of the administrative and other non-investment management services provided by Eaton Vance and its affiliates; and

•  The terms of the advisory agreement and the reasonableness and appropriateness of the particular fee paid by the Portfolio for the services described therein.

The Special Committee also considered the nature, extent and quality of the management services provided by the investment adviser and the sub-adviser. In so doing, the Special Committee considered their management capabilities with respect to the types of investments held by the Portfolio, including information relating to the education, experience and number of investment professionals and other personnel who provide services under the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements. The Special Committee specifically noted the investment adviser's in-house equity research capabilities and experience in managing funds that seek to maximize after-tax returns. The Special Committee evaluated the level of skill required to manage the Portfolio and concluded that the human resources available at the investment adviser and the sub-adviser were appropriate to fulfill effectively its duties on behalf of the Portfolio.

In its review of comparative information with respect to investment performance, the Special Committee concluded that the Fund has performed within a range that the Special Committee deemed competitive. With respect to its review of investment advisory and sub-advisory fees, the Special Committee concluded that the fees paid by the Portfolio are within the range of those paid by comparable funds within the mutual fund industry. In reviewing the information regarding the expense ratio of the Fund, the Special Committee concluded that, in light of the asset size of the Fund, the Fund's expense ratio is reasonable.

In addition to the factors mentioned above, the Special Committee reviewed the level of profits of the investment adviser and the sub-adviser in providing investment management services for the Portfolio and for all Eaton Vance funds as a group. The Special Committee also reviewed the implementation of a soft dollar reimbursement program pursuant to which the Portfolio

BOARD OF TRUSTEES' ANNUAL APPROVAL OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTSCONT'D

may receive reimbursement payments in respect of third party research services obtained by the investment adviser or sub-adviser as a result of soft dollar credits generated through trading on behalf of the Portfolio. The Special Committee also reviewed the benefits to Eaton Vance and its affiliates in providing administration services for the Fund and for all Eaton Vance funds as a group. In addition, the Special Committee considered the fiduciary duty assumed by the investment adviser and sub-adviser in connection with the services rendered to the Portfolio and the business reputation of the investment adviser and its financial resources. The Trustees concluded that in light of the services rendered, the profits realized by the investment adviser and Fox, an affiliated sub-adviser, are not unreasonable. The Special Committee also considered the extent to which the investment adviser and sub-ad viser appear to be realizing benefits from economies of scale in managing the Portfolio, and concluded that the fee breakpoints which are in place will allow for an equitable sharing of such benefits, when realized, with the Portfolio and the shareholders of the Fund.

The Special Committee did not consider any single factor as controlling in determining whether or not to renew the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements. Nor are the items described herein all the matters considered by the Special Committee. In assessing the information provided by Eaton Vance and its affiliates, the Special Committee also took into consideration the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund that is a part of a large family of funds which provides a large variety of shareholder services.

Based on its consideration of the foregoing factors and conclusions, and such other factors and conclusions as it deemed relevant, and assisted by independent counsel, the Special Committee concluded that the renewal of the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements, including the fee structures, is in the interests of shareholders.
