Letter from the Investment Adviser

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

The Jensen Quality Value Fund (the “Fund”)—Class Y Shares—posted a return of 4.31% for the six-month period ended November 30, 2022, compared to a return of 0.33% for the Russell Midcap Total Return Index and a return of 0.40% for the Russell 2500 Total Return Index. Please see pages 12 through 14 of this report for complete standardized performance information for the Fund.

Market Perspective

After a difficult start to calendar year 2022, when investors reacted negatively to the substantial headwinds impacting global economies, the domestic stock markets struggled to find direction for the six months ended November 30, 2022 While the challenges facing companies and their investors remained constant, be they persistently high inflationary pressures, steadily rising interest rates, a less accommodative policy from the U.S. Federal Reserve, ongoing geopolitical risk, or the run-up to the mid-term elections in the United States, the impact on the stock markets was, overall, negative.

Over the same six-month period, the Energy sector saw a substantial slowdown in returns after a remarkably strong start to the year. All of these factors contributed to a meaningful decline in corporate earnings over the course of the calendar year. As investors, we seek companies that produce a level of earnings growth stability that we believe that can help to dampen volatility in stock returns in challenging periods. We view the Fund’s outperformance over the last six months as a reflection of reasonably solid business performance from the companies in which we invest, in spite of the challenges facing global economies.

The Effect at Jensen

For the six months ended November 30, 2022, the Fund’s performance relative to the Russell Midcap Total Return Index was supported by overweight positions in the Industrials and Consumer Discretionary sectors, underweights in the Real Estate, Communication Services, Energy, and Utilities sectors, and specific companies in the Information Technology, Industrials, Financials, and Consumer Staples sectors.

Performance was negatively impacted by the Fund’s relative overweight to the Consumer Staples sector, underweight in the Financials sector, and specific companies in the Consumer Discretionary and Materials sectors.

Relative to the Russell 2500 Total Return Index, the Fund’s performance during the period was aided by overweight positions in the Consumer Staples and Industrials sectors, underweights in the Real Estate, Communication Services, and Energy sectors, and specific companies in the Information Technology, Industrials, and Financials sectors. Performance was hindered by the Fund’s relative underweight to the Financials and Health Care sectors, its overweight to the Information Technology sector, and specific companies in the Materials, Consumer Discretionary, and Consumer Staples sectors.

     
Semi-Annual Report Jensen Quality Value Fund 1

During the period, the Fund continued its high allocation to quality companies, as defined by the S&P Earnings and Dividend Quality Rankings. The Fund’s allocation to the highest-quality companies, those rated A+, A, and A-, averaged 49% of portfolio assets compared to 21% of the Russell Midcap Total Return Index and 12% of the Russell 2500 Total Return Index. This significant overweight to quality added to the Fund’s relative returns during the period, which we believe were driven by the market volatility caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and related lockdowns, rising inflation, and interest rate increases in most countries. While low-quality businesses can outperform in some periods, we believe that over the full market cycle, investors in higher-quality businesses have the potential to be rewarded with better returns and lower volatility.

The top contributor to Fund performance for the six-month period was Genuine Parts Co (GPC), a distributor of automotive and industrial parts. During the period, Genuine Parts Co reported solid revenue and earnings growth that exceeded the expectations of many investors. Genuine Parts Co was selected for the Jensen Quality Value Fund because of its compelling valuation at the time of purchase and its positive fundamental attributes, including a strong market position, well-known brands, best-in- class operating efficiency, and royalty income from franchised stores.

Other notable companies that contributed positively to portfolio performance were Copart (CPRT), an operator of salvage automobile auctions; FactSet (FDS), a financial software company; the Toro Company (TTC), a manufacturer and marketer of lawn care and gardening tools; and General Mills (GIS), a packaged foods company.

The largest negative contributor to Fund performance during the period was Hasbro (HAS), a toy, game, and entertainment company. During the period, Hasbro reported relatively weak results due to slowing consumer spending. Hasbro was originally selected for the Jensen Quality Value Fund due to its attractive valuation at the time of purchase and its compelling fundamental attributes, which include its large scale, strong internal brands, and barriers to entry, which are driven by long-term licensing arrangements with brand owners.

Other notable holdings that weighed on relative performance included Crown Holdings Inc (CCK), a producer of aluminum cans, other packaging, and packaging equipment; Levi Strauss & Co (LEVI), a casual apparel company; Church & Dwight Co Inc (CHD), a consumer packaged goods company; and Pool Corp (POOL), a provider of swimming pool maintenance supplies and equipment.

Fund Additions and Eliminations

During the six months ended November 30, 2022, the investment team continued to purchase the shares of companies we considered undervalued and sell the shares of companies we believed to be overvalued. The team added Charles River Laboratories (CRL) to the portfolio. Charles River Laboratories is a provider of non-clinical contract research services for the pharmaceutical industry, including drug discovery, safety testing, and manufacturing solutions. We believe the company benefits from high barriers to entry due to the complexity of scientific research, as well as high customer switching costs as it provides essential research services that are tailored to specific customer needs.

During the period, the investment team sold Scotts Miracle-Gro Co (SMG), a manufacturer and marketer of gardening products, and MillerKnoll (MLKN), a home and office furnishings company, in order to upgrade the fundamental quality of the businesses in the portfolio. As of November 30, 2022, the Jensen Quality Value Fund held 38 companies.

The Jensen Outlook

As we reflect on the market pullback in 2022 and look forward to 2023, we maintain a more cautious outlook for market returns in the coming year. We recognize that several factors make any forecast challenging. They include, but are not limited to, higher inflation, the specter of higher interest rates than seen for some time, the likelihood that rates will stay high for the foreseeable future, and ongoing cost pressures from the labor markets and supply chains.

In addition to these factors, we note that the business performance of companies and recent market return patterns could influence the outlook for the coming year. We acknowledge that the comparisons to 2022 are easier, but an earnings rebound may prove to be overly optimistic given the Fed’s goal of maintaining its tightening posture in an effort to reduce inflation meaningfully.

At the same time, there are increasing concerns about a recession in the coming year and the bond market is signaling that it expects one in 2023. In particular, the U.S. treasury yield curve—the yield difference between 10-year and 2-year U.S. treasury bonds—has been inverted since early July 2022. Yield curve inversions occur when the yields on short-term bonds are higher than those on long-term bonds. Such occurrences are relatively rare and have accurately predicted the 10 most recent economic recessions. Indeed, recent debate seems to be more about the depth and length of recession rather than whether one will occur.

Consequently, the path forward may continue to be uneven and thus potentially unnerving for investors, despite lofty expectations and the hope for a quick rebound in the stock markets.

However, we believe uncertainty can provide opportunities for higher-quality, more resilient businesses to garner favor from investors looking for lower volatility in the face of the issues discussed here. We continue to have confidence in the high-quality businesses owned in the Fund because of our deep research into characteristics of strength, including strong and resilient business models, durable competitive advantages, pricing power, steady operating margins, and strong free cash flow generation that is consistently reinvested into future growth opportunities.

     
Semi-Annual Report Jensen Quality Value Fund 3

While the economic uncertainty and the pullback in equity market prices in 2022 has tested the resolve of some investors, the Jensen investment team remains convinced that the strategy and process guiding our management of the Fund is sound. Our goal remains the ownership of a portfolio of companies positioned to grow and accrue business value. We seek to participate in this value creation as investors via the long-term ownership of fairly priced, high-quality stocks. We believe the attributes noted above allow quality companies to generate business returns consistently above their cost of capital, ultimately resulting in shareholder value creation.

Finally, we remain steadfast in our belief that paying attention to company fundamentals can help investors manage risk. This should offer a measure of capital protection in more volatile or generally lower market return environments and provide the opportunity for long-term capital appreciation.

We are tremendously grateful for the ongoing support of our firm and investment strategies from our partners and fellow shareholders. Thank you.

Letter from The Investment Adviser

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

The Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund—Class Y Shares—returned 0.56% for the six-month period ended November 30, 2022, compared to -2.51% for the MSCI All Country World Index over this period. Please see pages 16 through 18 of this report for complete standardized performance information for the Fund.

Market Perspective

After a difficult start to calendar year 2022 when investors reacted negatively to the substantial headwinds impacting global economies, global stock markets struggled to find direction for the six-month period ended November 30, 2022. While the challenges facing companies and their investors remained constant, be they persistently high inflationary pressures, steadily rising interest rates, less accommodative policies from central banks in developed economies, or ongoing geopolitical risk, the impact on the stock markets was, overall, negative.

Over the same six-month period, the Energy sector saw a substantial slowdown in returns after a remarkably strong start to the year. That slowdown, along with the other factors noted above, contributed to a decline in corporate earnings over the course of the calendar year. As investors, we seek companies that produce a level of earnings growth stability that we believe can help to dampen the volatility of stock returns during challenging periods. We view the Fund’s outperformance over the last six months as a reflection of reasonably solid business performance from the companies in which we invest, despite the challenges facing global economies.

The Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund also benefitted from its focus on higher-quality stocks during the period, as investment performance from higher-quality stocks (A+, A, and A-, as measured by the S&P Earnings and Dividend Quality Rankings) was stronger than that of lower-quality stocks (B+ and lower, as measured by the S&P Earnings and Dividend Quality Rankings).

The Effect at Jensen

Amidst this market volatility, the Fund’s focus on high-quality stocks mitigated a portion of the headwind to investment performance during the period. One indication of resilience from consistent, quality businesses can be found by reviewing market returns as measured by the S&P Earnings and Dividend Quality Rankings. Companies with more consistent earnings and dividend payments are ranked higher by S&P than those companies that are typically more volatile. Given the nature of the rankings, companies rated A- and above are considered higher quality businesses. Attribution analysis indicates that over the last six months, the Fund’s selection of stocks in the A- and above categories boosted the Fund’s returns relative to the benchmark.

From a sector perspective, stock selection contributed positively to the Fund’s relative performance in the Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology sectors, while detracting from returns in the Health Care sector. A relative overweight allocation to the Health Care and a relative underweight allocation to the Communication Services sectors contributed positively to the Fund’s relative performance, as did a lack of exposure to the Real Estate sector, while underweight

     
6 Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund Semi-Annual Report

allocations detracted from relative returns in the Energy and Financials sectors. Typically, very few companies in the Real Estate, Energy, and Financials sectors qualify for investment in the Fund due to our strict requirement for high and prolonged profitability, as measured by return on equity (ROE), and consequently, our lack of exposure to sectors that do not deliver consistently high business returns will periodically add or detract from the Fund’s relative performance.

Leading contributors to performance during the period were Starbucks (SBUX) and Automatic Data Processing (ADP). Starbucks is a global restaurant company and roaster, marketer, and retailer of specialty coffee. During the period, the company’s stock price reacted favorably to resilient financial results, a better-than-expected long-term financial outlook, and the resolution of senior leadership uncertainty. Our Starbucks ownership thesis remains predicated on its strong, globally recognized brand, favorable scale economics, and history of product innovation.

Automatic Data Processing is a leading human capital management software and cloud company focused on enterprise payroll processing and employee outsourcing. During the past quarter, the company reported robust revenue and earnings growth due to a strong domestic employment environment, rising interest rates, and operating leverage benefits. Automatic Data Processing is a core Fund holding due to the strength of its brand, high customer retention, and consistent business results.

Significant detractors from the Fund’s performance for the period included Taiwan Semiconductor (TSMC) and Alphabet Inc (GOOGL). TSMC is the global market leading chip manufacturer. TSMC has experienced improving business performance and demand for its chips over the last few quarters in part due to the economic shifts that took place during the pandemic. The company expects revenue growth to outpace industry growth due to strong demand for its products in its automotive, 5G, and the Internet of Things (IoT) end markets. More recently, and mindful of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, investors reacted negatively to ongoing geopolitical concerns regarding the relationship between China and Taiwan. We also believe that the combination of current market conditions and solid performance of TSMC’s stock earlier in the year resulted in profit taking, putting additional pressure on the company’s shares.

Alphabet Inc is a leading technology services and hardware company with well-known products including Google Search, Android, and YouTube. Weakness in the company’s shares has been influenced by a broad pullback among technology-centric businesses following positive multi-year stock performance for the group. We are also monitoring the potential for decelerating financial results due to advertising spending uncertainty and difficult year-over-year comparisons. Fundamentally, we consider the company to be sound, with a robust network effect for its core search and YouTube offerings, strong innovation, and an ascendant enterprise cloud business.

We are constantly evaluating all the businesses owned by the Fund as well as other investment candidates to determine whether better opportunities exist in our investable universe. Such determinations ultimately reflect a combination of fundamental considerations, valuation opportunities and overall risk profiles of our companies.

Fund Additions and Eliminations

During the period, the Jensen Investment Team enacted the purchase of three additional holdings and sold three holdings. We initiated new positions in Dassault Systèmes (DSY), UnitedHealth Group (UNH), and Aon (AON) due to solid business fundamentals and attractive valuations for those companies. We sold our positions in 3M (MMM), Tencent (700), and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) as part of ongoing efforts to upgrade the overall quality of the Fund. A brief synopsis of the changes follows.

France-based Dassault Systèmes develops software and cloud services for 3D product design and life management, simulation, manufacturing, and other 3D-related products. The company enjoys strong and formidable competitive advantages including innovation, switching costs, economies of scale, and barriers to entry. The company was an early mover in the 3D design market and established market-leading positions in the automotive and aerospace industries. Subsequently, the company has expanded design leadership in many other industries, such as industrial, marine, consumer goods, fashion, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and biotech.

We believe design and innovation are an important driver of the company’s future success. As such, the design process is often delinked from business cycles because design cycles are long in duration, particularly in the automotive and aerospace industries. This also holds true for shorter-duration design cycle industries, such as medical devices, consumer goods, and fashion. As a result, Dassault Systèmes monetizes these relationships with an annual fee model via the cloud or maintenance revenue, which creates a consistent topline that has grown approximately 10% annually for the last five- and ten-year periods. The company is also highly profitable, with operating margins that have improved by over 200 basis points over the last five years, which has delivered annualized earnings per share growth of almost 14% over the same period.

We have been impressed with Dassault Systèmes’ business fundamentals for some time; however, the company’s stock price was too expensive for consideration. Recently, the company’s stock sold off as part of what we consider an indiscriminate technology stock downdraft in the market. With fundamentals intact, we took the opportunity to add the company to the Fund at a compelling valuation.

UnitedHealth Group is a leading managed care provider in the United States and was added to the Fund in September 2022. The company operates four distinct but interconnected businesses including traditional health insurance, healthcare delivery, healthcare consulting, and pharmacy benefit management. Competitive advantages for the company are derived from the size, scale, and integration of these services. UnitedHealth Group also benefits from a diverse revenue stream consisting of governmental agencies, commercial organizations, and individuals. We expect the company will grow by expanding its care provider network, membership growth, and pricing power. We added UnitedHealth Group shares to the Fund due to attractive valuation and an improved growth outlook.

Aon, a leading professional services firm in areas of risk, health, and wealth, was added to the Jensen Global Quality Growth Strategy in October 2022. Headquartered in Ireland, Aon is one of only two insurance brokers operating on a global scale with 50,000 employees advising clients across over 120 countries. The company is one of the largest global reinsurance brokers, and offers clients consulting and advisory services across health, human capital, and wealth solutions verticals. Competitive advantages for the company include high switching costs gained through

     
8 Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund Semi-Annual Report

in-depth knowledge of unique and complex client risks, global scale required to serve multinational clients, and high barriers to entry due to long-standing client relationships and robust data and analytics capabilities. We believe that the company is uniquely positioned to benefit from rising inflation and interest rates via increasing insured values and fiduciary interest income, respectively. We expect Aon to continue to grow organically as it is well-positioned to help clients navigate complex and growing global risks such as cybersecurity, climate change, and workforce solutions.

3M is a diversified industrial conglomerate that manufactures products based on core material science, process technologies, and manufacturing expertise. The company’s products have applications in safety/industrial, transportation, healthcare, and consumer products. The sale of 3M reflects our concern over deteriorating business fundamentals. We are also concerned about the negative cash flow implications stemming from mounting product liability and environmental claims. Further, we have questions about the viability of 3M’s historical competitive advantages – scale, innovation, and brand strength – due to an ongoing trend of growth below our expectations.

Tencent is a Chinese multinational conglomerate with leading products in gaming, financial services, and communications. We continue to believe Tencent’s financial prospects are sound due to the company’s embedded position in the Chinese economy, and we believe it remains a highly advantaged business levered to the attractive growth areas of global gaming, social media, fintech, and cloud services. In recent months the stock has been under increasing pressure as the Chinese government and its regulatory bodies cracked down on dominant Chinese technology companies, including Tencent, to curb potential antitrust concerns, limit youth gaming activity, and address growing inequality within Chinese society. Given the fundamental uncertainty created by the capricious actions of the Chinese authorities we decided to exit the position.

GlaxoSmithKline, a London-based biopharmaceutical company, was sold from the Fund in September 2022 due to perceived better opportunities. GlaxoSmithKline benefits from a stable growth outlook led by its leading HIV franchise and the Shingrix shingles vaccine. However, we expect growth will remain muted due to a less robust drug pipeline and potential competitive threats to key products. It was the lowest Fund holding at the time of sale.

There were no other wholesale changes to the Fund, but the Investment Team remained active in adding to or trimming from existing positions to reflect Jensen’s convictions in the businesses and relative valuation opportunities within the context of the ongoing economic volatility.

The Jensen Outlook

As we reflect on the market pullback in 2022 and look forward to 2023, we maintain a more cautious outlook for market returns in the coming year. We recognize that several factors make any forecast challenging. They include but are not limited to higher inflation, the specter of higher interest rates than have been seen for some time, the likelihood that rates will stay high for the foreseeable future, and ongoing cost pressures from the labor markets and supply chains.

In addition to these factors, we are cognizant that the business performance of companies and recent market return patterns could influence the outlook for the coming year. Of note, is that global corporate earnings are currently expected to increase in 2023 after a lackluster performance in 2022

     
Semi-Annual Report Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund 9

and amidst signs of slowing in many economies. We acknowledge that the comparisons to 2022 are easier, but a significant rebound in earnings, and the resulting investor expectations, may prove to be overly optimistic given the difficult economic environments facing companies globally.

At the same time, there are increasing concerns about a recession in the coming year. Of note, we believe the U.S. fixed income market is signaling a looming economic recession. The U.S. treasury yield curve—the yield difference between 10-year and 2-year U.S. treasury bonds—has been inverted since early July. Yield curve inversions occur when the yields on short-term bonds are higher than those on long-term bonds. Such occurrences are relatively rare and have accurately predicted the 10 most recent economic recessions. Indeed, recent debate seems to be more focused on the depth and length of a recession rather than whether one will occur, and similar circumstances appear to be in play elsewhere around the world.

Consequently, the path forward may continue to be uneven and thus potentially unnerving for investors, despite lofty expectations and the hope for a quick rebound in the stock markets. However, we believe uncertainty can provide opportunities for higher-quality, more resilient businesses to garner favor from investors looking for lower volatility in the face of the issues discussed here. We continue to have confidence in the high-quality businesses owned in the Fund because of our deep research that favors such characteristics as strong and resilient business models, durable competitive advantages, pricing power, steady operating margins, and strong free cash flow generation that is consistently reinvested into future growth opportunities.

Our goal remains to be the ownership of a portfolio of companies positioned to grow and accrue business value. We seek to participate in this value creation as investors via the long-term ownership of fairly-priced, high-quality stocks. We believe the attributes noted above allow quality companies to generate business returns consistently above their cost of capital, ultimately resulting in shareholder value creation.

Finally, we remain steadfast in our belief that paying attention to company fundamentals can help investors manage risk. This should offer a measure of capital protection in more volatile or generally lower market return environments and provide the opportunity for long-term capital appreciation.

Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund - Class J (Unaudited)

Total Returns vs. MSCI All Country World Index Net (USD)

Average Annual Total Returns –
For periods ended November 30, 2022 (Unaudited)
1 year Since Inception
(4/15/2020)
Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund - Class J -9.07% 13.35%
MSCI All Country World Index Net (USD) -11.62% 13.93%

The MSCI All Country World Index Net (USD) (“MSCI ACWI”) is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that measures the equity performance of global developed and emerging markets. The MSCI ACWI total return indices reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using (for international indices) a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties.

The chart at the top of the page assumes an initial gross investment of $10,000 made on April 15, 2020, the inception date for Class J shares. Returns shown include the reinvestment of all Fund distributions. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Investment performance reflects fee waivers in effect. In the absence of such waivers, total returns would be reduced.

Performance data shown represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the performance shown. Performance data current to the most recent month-end may be obtained by calling 800-992-4144 or by visiting www.jenseninvestment.com.

36 Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund Semi-Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements

November 30, 2022 (Unaudited)

1. Organization

Trust for Professional Managers (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust under a Declaration of Trust dated May 29, 2001. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Jensen Quality Value Fund, formerly known as the Jensen Value Fund, and the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund (each, a “Fund,” and together, the “Funds”), each represent a distinct series with its own investment objective and policies within the Trust. The investment objective of each of the Jensen Quality Value Fund and the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund is long-term capital appreciation. The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest at $0.001 par value. The assets of the Funds are segregated, and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. The Class J and Class I shares of the Jensen Quality Value Fund became effective and commenced operations on March 31, 2010. The Class Y shares of the Jensen Quality Value Fund became effective and commenced operations on January 15, 2020. The Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund commenced investment operations on April 15, 2020 for Class J, Class I, and Class Y shares. For both Funds, Class J shares are subject to a 0.25% distribution (Rule 12b-1) and shareholder servicing fee and Class I shares are subject to a shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.10%. Each class of shares has identical rights and privileges except with respect to the distribution (Rule 12b-1) and shareholder servicing fees, and voting rights on matters affecting a single share class. Costs incurred by the Funds in connection with the organization, registration and the initial public offering of shares were paid by Jensen Investment Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”), the Funds’ investment adviser.

The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services–Investment Companies.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of the financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

(a) Investment Valuation – Each equity security owned by the Funds that is listed on a securities exchange, except those listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”), is valued at its last sale price on that exchange on the date as of which assets are valued. If a security is listed on more than one exchange, the Funds will use the price of the exchange that the Funds generally consider to be the principal exchange on which the stock is traded.

Fund securities listed on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price. If there has been no sale on such exchange or on NASDAQ on such day, the security is valued at (i) the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices at the close of the exchange or (ii) the latest sales price on the Composite Market

     
Semi-Annual Report Jensen Quality Value Fund, Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund 37

for the day such security is being valued. “Composite Market” means a consolidation of the trade information provided by national securities and foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets, as published by an approved independent pricing service (“Pricing Service”).

Foreign securities will be priced in their local currencies as of the close of their primary exchange or market or as of the time a Fund calculates its net asset value (“NAV”), whichever is earlier. Foreign securities, currencies and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are then translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar, as provided by a Pricing Service or reporting agency. All assets denominated in foreign currencies will be converted into U.S. dollars using the applicable currency exchange rates as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

Foreign securities are traded on foreign exchanges which typically close before the close of business on each day on which the NYSE is open. Each security trading on these exchanges may be valued utilizing a systematic fair valuation model provided by a Pricing Service. The valuation of each security that meets certain criteria in relation to the valuation model is systematically adjusted to reflect the impact of movement in the U.S. market after the foreign markets close and are classified as Level 2 securities. Securities that do not meet the criteria, or that are principally traded in other foreign markets, are valued as of the last reported sale price at the time the respective Fund determines its NAV, or when reliable market prices or quotations are not readily available, at the mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations as of the close of the appropriate exchange or other designated time.

Debt securities, including short-term debt instruments having a maturity of 60 days or less, are valued at the mean in accordance with prices supplied by a Pricing Service. Pricing Services may use various valuation methodologies such as the mean between the bid and the asked prices, matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. If a price is not available from a Pricing Service, the most recent quotation obtained from one or more broker-dealers known to follow the issue will be obtained. Quotations will be valued at the mean between the bid and the offer. In the absence of available quotations, the securities will be priced at fair value, as described below. Any discount or premium is accreted or amortized using the constant yield method until maturity.

Redeemable securities issued by open-end, registered investment companies, including money market mutual funds, are valued at the NAV of such companies for purchase and/or redemption orders placed on that day. If, on a particular day, a share of an investment company is not listed on NASDAQ, such security’s fair value will be determined.

When market quotations are not readily available, any security or other financial instrument is valued at its fair value in accordance with Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act as determined under the Adviser’s procedures, subject to oversight by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. These fair value procedures will also be used to price a security when corporate events, events in the securities market or world events cause the Adviser to believe that a security’s last sale price may not reflect its actual fair value. The intended effect of using fair value pricing procedures is to ensure that the Funds are accurately priced.

     
38 Jensen Quality Value Fund, Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund Semi-Annual Report

FASB Accounting Standards Codification, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) Topic 820, establishes an authoritative definition of fair value and sets out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. ASC 820 requires an entity to evaluate certain factors to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in volume and level of activity for the security such that recent transactions and quoted prices may not be determinative of fair value and further analysis and adjustment may be necessary to estimate fair value. ASC 820 also requires enhanced disclosure regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value in those instances as well as expanded disclosure of valuation levels for each class of investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

   Level 1 –  Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
       
  Level 2 –  Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
       
  Level 3 –  Significant unobservable inputs (including a Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used to value each Fund’s investments carried at fair value as of November 30, 2022:

Jensen Quality Value Fund      Level 1  Level 2Level 3Total

Total Investments   $32,043,207   $11,653,608   $    $43,696,815 

(1) For further information regarding security characteristics, please see the Schedules of Investments.

The Funds did not hold any investments during the six months ended November 30, 2022, with significant unobservable inputs which would be classified as Level 3. The Funds did not hold financial derivative instruments during the six months ended November 30, 2022.

(b) Foreign Securities and Currency – Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on 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.

     
Semi-Annual Report Jensen Quality Value Fund, Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund 39

The Funds do not isolate the portion of the results of operations from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from those resulting from the changes in market prices of securities held. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between 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 values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

Investments in foreign securities entail certain risks. Individual foreign economies of certain countries may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resource self-sufficiency, diversification and balance of payments position. The internal politics of certain foreign countries may not be as stable as those of the United States. Since foreign securities normally are denominated and traded in foreign currencies, the value of a Fund’s assets may be affected favorably or unfavorably by currency exchange rates, currency exchange control regulations, foreign withholding taxes, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies. There may be less information publicly available about a foreign issuer than about a U.S. issuer, and foreign issuers are not generally subject to accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices comparable to those in the United States. The securities of some foreign issuers are less liquid and at times more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

(c) Federal Income Taxes – The Funds intend to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as regulated investment companies and to make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to their shareholders sufficient to relieve them from all or substantially all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision has been provided.

As of and during the six months ended November 30, 2022, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the six months ended November 30, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds have no examinations in progress. The Funds are also not aware of any tax provisions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

(d) Distributions to Shareholders – The Funds will declare and distribute any net investment income quarterly. The Funds will distribute any net realized long- or short-term capital gains at least annually. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short-term capital gains. All short-term capital gains are included in ordinary income for tax purposes. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Funds may also pay a special distribution at the end of the calendar year to comply with federal tax requirements. The Funds may utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as part of the dividend paid deduction.

     
40 Jensen Quality Value Fund, Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund Semi-Annual Report

(e) 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.

(f) Share Valuation – The 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 NYSE is closed for trading.

(g) Allocation of Income, Expenses and Gains/Losses – Income, expenses (other than those deemed attributable to a specific share class), and gains and losses of each Fund 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 the 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. Distribution (12b-1) and shareholder servicing fees are expensed at 0.25% of average daily net assets of Class J shares. Shareholder servicing fees are expensed at up to 0.10% of the average daily net assets of Class I shares. 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.

(h) Other – Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss from investment transactions using the specific identification method by comparing the original cost of the security lot sold with the net sale proceeds. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.

Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, net of any reclaims, have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

3. Federal Tax Matters

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended May 31, 2022 and May 31, 2021 was as follows:

Jensen Quality Value Fund   May 31, 2022     May 31, 2021
Ordinary Income       $2,416,784              $944,570

Other accumulated losses   (2,052,629)     (95,078)
Total distributable earnings   $7,651,274      $2,490,435 

The difference between book basis and tax basis of investments is primarily attributable to the deferral of losses on wash sales.

At May 31, 2022, the Jensen Quality Value Fund deferred, on a tax basis, post-October losses of $2,052,629.

At May 31, 2022, the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund had short-term capital loss carryovers of $(95,078).

Additionally, 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 NAV per share. The permanent difference relates to tax equalization.

On the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, the following adjustments were made for permanent tax adjustments:

4. Investment Adviser

The Trust has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Adviser to furnish investment advisory services to the Funds. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Funds compensate the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 0.65% and 0.75% of each Fund’s average daily net assets for the Jensen Quality Value Fund and Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund, respectively.

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse a Fund’s other expenses at least through the expiration dates listed below to the extent necessary to ensure that the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses (exclusive of front-end or contingent deferred sales loads,

5. Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Plan

The Trust adopted a distribution and shareholder servicing plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 (the “12b-1 Plan”), on behalf of the Funds, which authorizes Class J shares to pay Quasar Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor” or “Quasar”), the Funds’ distributor and principal underwriter, a distribution fee of 0.25% of a Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class J shares for services to Class J shareholders and distribution of Class J shares. The Trust adopted a shareholder servicing plan (the “Shareholder Servicing Plan”), on behalf of the Funds, which authorizes Class I shares to pay up to 0.10% of a Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class I shares to other financial institutions for shareholder servicing and maintenance of Class I shareholder accounts.

11. Recent Market Events

U.S. and international markets have experienced and may continue to experience significant periods of volatility in recent years and months due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors including rising inflation, uncertainty regarding central banks’ interest rate increases, the possibility of a national or global recession, trade tensions, political events, the war between Russia and Ukraine and the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic. The global recovery from COVID-19 may last for an extended period of time. As a result of continuing political tensions and armed conflicts, including the war between Ukraine and Russia, the U.S. and the European Union imposed sanctions on certain Russian individuals and companies, including certain financial institutions, and have limited certain exports and imports to and from Russia. The war has contributed to recent market volatility and may continue to do so. These developments, as well as other events, could result in further market volatility and negatively affect financial asset prices, the liquidity of certain securities and the normal operations of securities exchanges and other markets, despite government efforts to address market disruptions. Continuing market volatility as a result of recent market conditions or other events may have adverse effects on your account.

12. Subsequent Events

On December 15, 2022, the following distributions were declared and paid from ordinary income and capital gains to shareholders of record as of December 14, 2022:

Expense Example – November 30, 2022 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including investment management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (Class J only) and shareholder servicing fees (Class I only), and other Fund expenses, which are indirectly paid by shareholders. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period referenced in each table.

Actual Expenses

The first lines of the tables below for each share class of the Funds provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. However, the table does not include shareholder specific fees, such as the $15.00 fee charged to IRA accounts, or the $15.00 fee charged for wire redemptions. The table also does not include portfolio trading commissions and related trading costs. You may use the information in these lines, 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 Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second lines of the tables below for each share class of the Funds provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratios for each share class of the Funds and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is 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 the Funds 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, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees which, although not charged by the Funds, may be charged by other funds. Therefore, the second 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.

Basis for Trustees’ Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement

The Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”) of Trust for Professional Managers (the “Trust”) met on August 26, 2022 to consider the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Trust, on behalf of the Jensen Quality Value Fund and the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund (each, a “Fund,” and together, the “Funds”), each a series of the Trust, and Jensen Investment Management, Inc., the Funds’ investment adviser (the “Adviser”). The Trustees also met at a prior meeting held on June 13, 2022 (the “June 13, 2022 Meeting”) to review materials related to the renewal of the Agreement. Prior to these meetings, the Trustees requested and received materials to assist them in considering the renewal of the Agreement. The materials provided contained information with respect to the factors enumerated below, including a copy of the Agreement, a memorandum prepared by the Trust’s outside legal counsel discussing in detail the Trustees’ fiduciary obligations and the factors they should assess in considering the renewal of the Agreement, detailed comparative information relating to the Funds’ performance, as well as the management fees and other expenses of the Funds, due diligence materials relating to the Adviser (including a due diligence questionnaire completed on behalf of the Funds by the Adviser, the Adviser’s Form ADV, select financial statements of the Adviser, biographical information of the Adviser’s key management and compliance personnel, comparative fee information for the Funds and a summary detailing key provisions of the Adviser’s written compliance program, including its code of ethics) and other pertinent information. The Trustees also received information periodically throughout the year that was relevant to the Agreement renewal process, including performance, management fee and other expense information. Based on their evaluation of the information provided by the Adviser, in conjunction with the Funds’ other service providers, the Trustees, by a unanimous vote (including a separate vote of the Trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”)), approved the continuation of the Agreement for an additional one-year term ending August 31, 2023.

Discussion of Factors Considered

In considering the renewal of the Agreement and reaching their conclusions, the Trustees reviewed and analyzed various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors enumerated below.

1. Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided to the Funds

The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser to the Funds and the amount of time devoted to the Funds’ operations by the Adviser’s staff. The Trustees considered the Adviser’s specific responsibilities in all aspects of day-to-day management of the Funds, including the investment strategies implemented by the Adviser, as well as the qualifications, experience and responsibilities of Eric H. Schoenstein, Robert D. McIver, Allen T. Bond, and Kevin J. Walkush, the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund’s portfolio managers, and Eric H. Schoenstein, Kurt M. Havnaer, Adam D. Calamar, and Tyra S. Pratt, the Jensen Quality Value Fund’s portfolio managers, and other key personnel at the Adviser involved in the day-to-day activities of the Funds. The Trustees reviewed information provided by the Adviser in a due diligence questionnaire, including

     
54 Jensen Quality Value Fund, Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund Semi-Annual Report

the structure of the Adviser’s compliance program and its continuing commitment to the Funds. The Trustees noted that during the course of the prior year the Adviser had participated in a Trust board meeting to discuss the Funds’ performance and outlook, along with the compliance efforts made by the Adviser. The Trustees also noted any services that extended beyond portfolio management, and they considered the brokerage practices of the Adviser. The Trustees discussed the Adviser’s handling of compliance matters, including the reports of the Trust’s chief compliance officer to the Trustees on the effectiveness of the Adviser’s compliance program. The Trustees also considered the Adviser’s overall financial condition, as well as the implementation and operational effectiveness of the Adviser’s business continuity plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Trustees concluded that the Adviser had sufficient quality and depth of personnel, resources, investment methods and compliance policies and procedures essential to performing its duties under the Advisory Agreement and that the nature, overall quality and extent of the management services provided to the Funds, as well as the Adviser’s compliance program, were satisfactory and reliable.

2. Investment Performance of the Funds and the Adviser

The Trustees discussed the performance of the Class I shares of the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund and Jensen Quality Value Fund for the quarter, one-year, three-year, five year, ten-year and since inception periods ended March 31, 2022, as applicable. In assessing the quality of the portfolio management services delivered by the Adviser, the Trustees also compared the short-term and longer-term performance of the Class I shares of each Fund on both an absolute basis and in comparison to each Fund’s primary benchmark index (the MSCI All Country World Index for the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund and the Russell Midcap Total Return Index for the Jensen Quality Value Fund) and in comparison to a peer group of funds as constructed using publicly-available data provided by Morningstar, Inc. and presented by Barrington Financial Group, LLC d/b/a Barrington Partners, an independent third-party benchmarking firm, through its cohort selection process (a peer group of U.S. open-end global large-cap blend and foreign large-cap blend funds for the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund and a peer group of U.S. open-end mid-cap blend and mid-cap value funds for the Jensen Quality Value Fund) (each, a “Barrington Cohort”). The Trustees noted that the Adviser did not manage any other accounts with the same or similar investment strategies as either Fund.

The Trustees noted the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund’s performance for Class I shares for the one-year period ended March 31, 2022 was above the Barrington Cohort average. The Trustees noted that for the one-year period ended March 31, 2022, the Class I shares of the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund had outperformed the MSCI All Country World Index. The Trustees noted that for quarter and since inception periods ended March 31, 2022, the Class I shares of the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund had underperformed the MSCI All Country World Index.

The Trustees noted the Jensen Quality Value Fund’s performance for Class I shares for the ten-year period ended March 31, 2022 was in-line with the Barrington Cohort average. The Trustees also noted that the Jensen Quality Value Fund’s performance for Class I shares for each of the one-year, three-year, and five-year periods ended March 31, 2022 was above the Barrington Cohort average. The Trustees noted that for the one-year period ended March 31, 2022, the Class I shares

     
Semi-Annual Report Jensen Quality Value Fund, Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund 55

of the Jensen Quality Value Fund had outperformed the Russell Midcap Total Return Index. The Trustees noted that for the quarter, three-year, five-year, ten-year and since inception periods ended March 31, 2022, the Class I shares of the Jensen Quality Value Fund had underperformed the Russell Midcap Total Return Index.

After considering all of the information, the Trustees concluded that the performance obtained by the Adviser for each Fund was satisfactory under current market conditions. Although past performance is not a guarantee or indication of future results, the Trustees determined that each Fund and its shareholders were likely to benefit from the Adviser’s continued management.

3. Costs of Services Provided and Profits Realized by the Adviser

The Trustees considered the cost of services and the structure of the Adviser’s fees, including a review of the expense analyses and other pertinent material with respect to the Funds. The Trustees reviewed the related statistical information and other materials provided, including the comparative expenses and Barrington Cohort comparisons. The Trustees considered the cost structure of each Fund relative to its Barrington Cohort, as well as any fee waivers and expense reimbursements of the Adviser.

The Trustees also considered the overall profitability of the Adviser and reviewed the Adviser’s financial information and noted that the Adviser had subsidized each Fund’s operations since inception, and had not yet recouped those subsidies. The Trustees also examined the level of profits that could be expected to accrue to the Adviser from the fees payable under the Advisory Agreement, as well as the Funds’ brokerage practices, noting that the Adviser makes no effort to seek soft dollar arrangements. These considerations were based on materials requested by the Trustees and the Funds’ administrator specifically for the June 13, 2022 meeting and the August 26, 2022 meeting at which the Advisory Agreement was formally considered, as well as the reports prepared by the Adviser over the course of the year.

The Trustees noted that the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund’s contractual management fee of 0.75% was above the Barrington Cohort average of 0.69%. The Trustees noted that the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund was operating above its expense cap of 1.00% for Class I shares. The Trustees observed that the Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund’s total expense ratio (net of fee waivers and expense reimbursements and including shareholder servicing fees) of 1.02% for Class I shares was above the Barrington Cohort average of 0.78%.

The Trustees noted that the Jensen Quality Value Fund’s contractual management fee of 0.65% was below the Barrington Cohort average of 0.72%. The Trustees noted that the Jensen Quality Value Fund was operating above its expense cap of 0.80% for Class I shares. The Trustees observed that the Jensen Quality Value Fund’s total expense ratio (net of fee waivers and expense reimbursements and including shareholder servicing fees) of 0.82% for Class I shares was below the Barrington Cohort average of 0.94%.

     
56 Jensen Quality Value Fund, Jensen Global Quality Growth Fund Semi-Annual Report

The Trustees concluded that the Funds’ expenses and the management fees paid to the Adviser were fair and reasonable in light of the comparative performance, expense and management fee information. The Trustees further concluded, based on a profitability analysis prepared by the Adviser, that neither Fund was profitable to the Adviser after reflecting marketing and distribution expenses, but the Adviser maintained adequate profit levels to support the services to the Funds from the revenues of its overall investment advisory business, despite its subsidies to support each Fund’s operations.

4. Extent of Economies of Scale as the Funds Grow

The Trustees compared each Fund’s expenses relative to its peer group and discussed realized and potential economies of scale. The Trustees also reviewed the structure of each Fund’s management fee and whether each Fund was large enough to generate economies of scale for shareholders or whether economies of scale would be expected to be realized as Fund assets grow (and if so, how those economies of scale were being or would be shared with shareholders). The Trustees reviewed all fee waivers, expense reimbursements and potential recoupments by the Adviser with respect to each Fund. The Trustees noted that each Fund’s management fee structure did not contain any breakpoint reductions as the Fund’s assets grow in size, but that the feasibility of incorporating breakpoints would continue to be reviewed on a regular basis. With respect to the Adviser’s fee structures, the Trustees concluded that the current fee structures were reasonable and reflected a sharing of economies of scale between the Adviser and each Fund at the Fund’s current asset level.

5. Benefits Derived from the Relationship with the Funds

The Trustees considered the direct and indirect benefits that could be received by the Adviser from its association with the Funds. The Trustees examined the brokerage practices of the Adviser with respect to the Funds. The Trustees concluded that the benefits the Adviser may receive, such as greater name recognition and increased ability to attract additional investor assets, appear to be reasonable, and in many cases may benefit the Funds.

Conclusions

The Trustees considered all of the foregoing factors. In considering the renewal of the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any one factor as all-important, but rather considered these factors collectively in light of each Fund’s surrounding circumstances. Based on this review, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year term ending August 31, 2023 as being in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.
