Past performance is not predictive of future performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that your shares, when redeemed may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance current to the most recent month-end may be lower or higher than the performance quoted and can be obtained by calling 1-844-577-3863. Performance assumes the reinvestment of capital gains and income distributions. The performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

The Jackson Square Large-Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund”) acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of the Delaware U.S. Growth Fund, a series of Delaware Group Adviser Funds (the “Predecessor Fund”), effective at the close of business on April 16, 2021 (the “Reorganization”), and the Predecessor Fund is the accounting and performance history survivor of the Reorganization. The performance information shown for the Fund’s Investor Class Shares represent the performance of the Predecessor Fund’s Class A shares, performance for the Fund’s Institutional Class Shares represent the performance of the Predecessor Fund’s Institutional Class shares, and performance for the Fund’s IS Class Shares represent the performance of the Predecessor Fund’s Class R6 shares. Prior to April 16, 2021, the Adviser served as sub-adviser to the Predecessor Fund. The IS Class performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in expenses paid by the Predecessor Fund and those paid by the Fund. The performance shown for the Investor Class Shares has been adjusted so that it does not reflect the Predecessor Fund’s 5.75% sales charge for its Class A shares, which does not apply to Investor Class shares. Performance shown for the periods prior to the inception of the Institutional Class and IS Class is based on the performance of the Investor Class shares, adjusted for the lower expenses applicable to the Institutional and IS classes. The Investor Class commenced operations on December 3, 1993, the Institutional Class commenced operations on February 3, 1994 and the IS Class commenced operations on May 2, 2016.

(3)
During the 3rd quarter of 2023, the Large-Cap Growth Fund received proceeds from a class action settlement from a company it no longer owns. This settlement had a material impact on the Fund's investment performance. On the day the proceeds were received, the IS Class, Institutional Class, and Investor Class had their NAV positively impacted by 5.81%, 5.79%, and 5.84% respectively. This is a one-time event that is not likely to be repeated.

Expense Examples (Unaudited)
April 30, 2024

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transactions costs, including brokerage commissions on purchases and sales of Fund shares, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, Shareholder Servicing Plan fees, and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (November 1, 2023 – April 30, 2024).
 
ACTUAL EXPENSES
 
For each class, the first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled, “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
 
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
 
For each class, the second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the 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 transactional costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transactional costs were included, your costs may have been higher.

Per share amounts calculated using the average shares method.
(3)
Not Annualized for periods less than one year.

This is a one-time event that is not likely to be repeated.
(5)
Total return during the period reflects a waiver by the manager. Performance would have been lower had the waiver not been in effect.
(6)

Notes to the Financial Statements (Unaudited)
April 30, 2024
 
1.  ORGANIZATION
 
Managed Portfolio Series (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on January 27, 2011. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Jackson Square Large-Cap Growth Fund (“Large-Cap Growth Fund”), and Jackson Square SMID-Cap Growth Fund (“SMID-Cap Growth Fund”) (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are investment companies and therefore follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. The Large-Cap Growth Fund, and SMID-Cap Growth Fund are each a non-diversified series with their own investment objectives and policies within the Trust. The investment objective of each Fund is long-term capital appreciation. The Funds offer three different share classes – Investor Class, Institutional Class, and IS Class. The Large-Cap Growth Fund currently offers the IS Class shares (previously known as Class R6, prior to April 16, 2021), which commenced operations on May 2, 2016, the Institutional Class shares which commenced operations on February 3, 1994, and the Investor Class shares (previously known as Class A shares before April 16, 2021), which commenced operations on December 3, 1993. Effective April 16, 2021, the Large-Cap Growth Fund ceased offering Class C and Class R shares. The remaining Class C and Class R shares were converted to Investor Class shares at the close of business on April 16, 2021. The SMID-Cap Growth Fund currently offers the IS Class shares, which commenced operations on December 1, 2003, the Institutional Class shares which commenced operations on September 16, 2016, and the Investor Class shares, which commenced operations on September 19, 2016. Each class of shares has identical rights and privileges except with respect to Shareholder Servicing Plan fees, 12b-1 fees, and voting rights on matters affecting a single share class. Institutional Class shares are subject to a maximum 0.10% Shareholder Servicing Plan fee. Investor Class shares are subject to a 0.25% Rule 12b-1 distribution and servicing fee and a maximum 0.10% Shareholder Servicing Plan fee. The Funds may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest with no par value.
 
2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
Security Valuation – All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 3.
 
Federal Income Taxes – The Funds comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, necessary to qualify as regulated investment companies and distribute substantially all net taxable investment income and net realized gains to shareholders in a manner which results in no tax cost to the Funds. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. As of and during the period ended April 30, 2024, 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. As of and during the period ended April 30, 2024, the Funds did not have liabilities for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits on uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. As of and during the period ended April 30, 2024, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds are not subject to examination by U.S. tax authorities for tax years prior to the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020.
 
Security Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions – The Funds follow industry practice and record security transactions on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of securities are calculated on the basis
 


25

Jackson Square Funds


Notes to the Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
April 30, 2024

of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and regulations. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the expected life of the respective securities using the constant yield method.
 
The Funds distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The treatment for financial reporting purposes of distributions made to shareholders during the year from net investment income or net realized capital gains may differ from their treatment for federal income tax purposes. These differences are caused primarily by differences in the timing of the recognition of certain components of income, expense, or realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. Where such differences are permanent in nature, GAAP requires that they be reclassified in the components of the net assets based on their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations or net asset value (“NAV”) per share of the Funds.
 
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 realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments and translations of foreign currency. The Funds report 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. 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.
 
Allocation of Income, Expenses and Gains/Losses – Income, expenses (other than those deemed attributable to a specific share class), and gains and losses of the Funds are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of net assets represented by each class as a percentage of the net assets of each Fund. Expenses deemed directly attributable to a class of shares are recorded by the specific class. Most Fund expenses are allocated by class based on relative net assets. Shareholder Servicing Plan fees are expensed at an annual rate up to 0.10% of Institutional Class and Investor Class shares and 12b-1 fees are expensed at annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets of Investor Class shares (See Note 5). Expenses associated with a specific Fund in the Trust are charged to that Fund. Common Trust expenses are typically allocated evenly between the Funds of the Trust, or by other equitable means.
 
Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
3.  SECURITIES VALUATION
 
The Funds have adopted authoritative fair value accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about
 


26

Jackson Square Funds


Notes to the Financial Statements (Unaudited) – Continued
April 30, 2024

the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value, a discussion in changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period and expanded disclosure of valuation Levels for major security types. These inputs are summarized in the three broad Levels listed below:
 
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.

Following is a description of the valuation techniques applied to each Fund’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Each Fund’s investments are carried at fair value.
 
Equity Securities – Equity securities that are primarily traded on a national securities exchange shall be valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded on the day of valuation or, if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the bid and ask prices. Securities traded primarily in the Nasdaq Global Market System for which market quotations are readily available shall be valued using the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). If the NOCP is not available, such securities shall be valued at the last sale price on the day of valuation, or if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the bid and ask prices. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. If the market for a particular security is not active, and the mean between bid and ask prices is used, these securities are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
In the case of foreign securities, the occurrence of events after the close of foreign markets, but prior to the time the Funds’ NAV is calculated will result in an adjustment to the trading prices of foreign securities when foreign markets open on the following business day. The Fund will value foreign securities at fair value, taking into account such events in calculating the NAV. In such cases, use of fair valuation can reduce an investor’s ability to seek to profit by estimating the Funds’ NAV in advance of the time the NAV is calculated. All foreign securities, with the exception of Canadian securities and those listed on a U.S. exchange, have an adjustment applied to their trade price and therefore are automatically deemed to be in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Short-Term Investments – Investments in other mutual funds, including money market funds, are valued at their NAV per share. Deposit accounts are valued at acquisition cost, which approximates fair value. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
U.S. government securities are normally valued using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, and reference data. These securities are valued principally using dealer quotations. U.S. government securities are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the inputs used and market activity levels for specific securities.

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted a pricing and valuation policy for use by the Funds and their Valuation Designee (as defined below) in calculating the Funds’ NAV. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Funds have designated Jackson Square Partners, LLC (the “Adviser”) as its “Valuation Designee” to perform all the fair value determinations as well as to perform all of the responsibilities that may be performed by the Valuation Designee in accordance with Rule 2a-5. The Valuation Designee is authorized to make all necessary determinations of the fair values of portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or if it is deemed that the prices obtained from brokers and dealers, or independent pricing services are unreliable.
 
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following tables are a summary of the inputs used to value each Fund’s securities as of April 30, 2024:

U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (the “Administrator”), doing business as U.S. Bank Global Fund Services, acts as the Funds’ Administrator, Transfer Agent, and Fund Accountant. U.S. Bank N.A. (the “Custodian”) serves as the Custodian to the Funds. The Custodian is an affiliate of the Administrator. The Administrator performs various administrative and accounting services for the Funds. The Administrator prepares various federal and state regulatory filings, reports and returns for the Funds; prepares reports and materials to be supplied to the Trustees; monitors the activities of the Custodian; coordinates the payment of the Funds’ expenses and reviews the Funds’ expense accruals. The officers of the Trust, including the Chief Compliance Officer, are employees of the Administrator. As compensation for its services, the Administrator is entitled to a monthly fee at an annual rate based upon the average daily net assets of the Fund, subject to annual minimums. Fees paid by the Funds for administration and fund accounting, transfer agency, custody and compliance services for the period ended April 30, 2024, are disclosed in the Statements of Operations.
 
5.  DISTRIBUTION & SHAREHOLDER SERVICING FEES
 
The Funds have adopted a Distribution Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 (the “Plan”) in the Investor Class only. The Plan permits the Funds to pay for distribution and related expenses at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Investor Class average daily net assets. The expenses covered by the Plan may include the cost of preparing and distributing prospectuses and other sales material, advertising and public relations expenses, payments to financial intermediaries and compensation of personnel involved in selling shares of the Funds.

Payments, if any, to the Adviser under the Agreement may reimburse the Adviser for payments it makes to selected brokers, dealers and administrators which have entered into service agreements with the Adviser for services provided to shareholders of the Funds. Payments may also be made directly to the intermediaries providing shareholder services. The services provided by such intermediaries are primarily designed to assist shareholders of the Fund and include the furnishing of office space and equipment, telephone facilities, personnel, and assistance to the Funds in servicing such shareholders.
