- Becker Value Equity Fund (BVEIX) is an open-end mutual fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation through a value investment strategy, primarily investing in common and preferred stocks of large- and medium-sized companies whose market prices do not reflect their intrinsic values as determined by its investment advisor. The Fund employs a bottom-up approach focused on company fundamentals, targeting firms with sound financials, low price-to-earnings ratios, and discounted valuations, generally favoring companies with market capitalizations exceeding $10 billion while permitting investments across any size; under normal circumstances, it invests at least 80% of its net assets plus borrowings in equity securities including common stocks, preferred stocks, common stock equivalents such as rights, warrants and convertible securities, equity exchange-traded funds, and equity real estate investment trusts. It may allocate up to 15% of assets to foreign securities, including emerging markets via American Depositary Receipts listed on U.S. exchanges, and maintains a portfolio turnover rate of approximately 20%, with total assets under management of about $93.9 million as of mid-2024. The Fund, a series of Professionally Managed Portfolios organized as a Massachusetts business trust, commenced operations on November 3, 2003 as a predecessor fund and reorganized into its current structure on August 27, 2012; it is headquartered in Portland, Oregon and advised by Becker Capital Management, Inc., an independent investment advisory firm founded in 1976 also based at 1211 SW 5th Avenue, Suite 2185 (recently updated to Suite 2600), Portland, Oregon 97204, which oversees approximately $5 billion in assets across various strategies. Retail Class shares trade under ticker BVEFX with a minimum initial investment of $2,500, while Institutional Class shares (BVEIX) require $100,000; both classes feature expense ratios of 0.68% and 0.78% after contractual waivers through at least February 28, 2026, no 12b-1 fees, and a 1% redemption fee on shares sold within 30 days. In recent developments, the Fund's Board of Trustees approved a name change to Becker Equity Fund effective February 28, 2026, while preserving its investment objective, strategies, and portfolio management team led by Patrick E. Becker, Jr., Blake Howells, CFA, Steve Laveson, Thomas (T.J.) McConville, Andy Murray, CFA, and Sid Parakh; this follows a December 9, 2025 supplement to the prospectus and statement of additional information dated February 28, 2025. The advisor concurrently updated its address and continues to waive fees to cap expenses, with the Fund delivering strong 2024 performance of 16.14% for Institutional Class shares, outperforming the Russell 1000 Value Index at 14.37% over one year ended December 31, 2024, amid ongoing value-style emphasis in U.S. large-cap equities and selective global exposure. No major acquisitions, partnerships, or new product launches were reported for the Fund in 2024-2025, with operations focused on core equity value strategies serving individual, high-net-worth, institutional, and charitable investors primarily in the United States.
