PORTFOLIO 21
Dear Portfolio 21 Investors:
It is with pleasure that we write our second shareholder letter. Portfolio 21 is
almost one year old--11 months as of August 31, 2000. Shareholder letters are
written and sent semi-annually, so we will concentrate on highlights from the
past six months.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
We launched the Portfolio on September 30, 1999, as of February 29, 2000, the
Portfolio's total assets had grown to $3,567,380, and by August 31, 2000, total
assets were $7,271,799. Although for the six months ended August 31, 2000, the
Portfolio's cumulative total return was 0.00% (flat), for its 11-month life, the
return has been 20.81%. This compares favorably to The Morgan Stanley World
Equity Index which returned 1.65% for the past six months and 12.41% for the 11
months ending August 31, 2000. We are using this index as our benchmark since
Portfolio 21 holds both US and non-US stocks.
Probably the most memorable aspect of the past six months was the sharp drop in
technology stocks during the month of April. Many of these stocks have
rebounded, although the markets are much more skeptical about ".com" companies
than they had been prior to April. Portfolio 21 has significant exposure to the
technology sector, but we have been hesitant to focus on unprofitable companies
that require significant financing to continue operating. We have felt that the
risks were too high relative to the expected returns.
Portfolio 21's flat return for the past six months was actually composed of
widely dispersed returns. Companies such as Novo Nordisk, Whole Foods, Nike,
Herman Miller, Tomra, and Interface performed very well, while Agilent, AT & T,
Electrolux, and Wild Oats lagged.
It is our intention that Portfolio 21 holdings be long term in nature. However,
during the past six months, we have found it necessary to sell one holding--Real
Goods. In this case, we were concerned that its small size and a shaky financial
outlook outweighed the impressive sustainability aspirations of the company.

<PAGE>
ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
During the past six months, three new companies--IMPCO, Nokia, and NEG
Micon--were qualified for inclusion in Portfolio 21. IMPCO and NEG Micon are
both involved in renewable energy. IMPCO (United States) hopes to develop
hydrogen storage facilities for fuel cells and has made a commitment to spend
research dollars in this area. Based in Denmark, NEG Micon (NEG) develops,
manufactures and markets wind energy products. Nokia, a Finnish company, is a
major participant in the development of wireless communications technology and
equipment.
We continue to seek out companies that understand how they can incorporate
environmental sustainability into their businesses in order to enhance
profitability and long term success and that are making substantive efforts to
do so now. A word about energy--as you review the holdings in Portfolio 21, you
will see that we have concentrated our energy holdings exclusively in companies
that have made significant commitments to developing, generating, and/or
distributing renewable energy. While some of the major oil companies have
publicly announced their awareness of the need to transition away from fossil
fuels, their underlying investment strategies and capital outlays continue to be
concentrated in "old energy". Thus, they are not included in Portfolio 21.
SHAREHOLDER ACTIVISM
Once Portfolio 21 has held positions in stocks for more than one year, we will
be eligible to sponsor and participate in the shareholder resolution process
designed to increase the sustainability commitments of companies in Portfolio 21
by entering into dialogue with companies and, if necessary, filing resolutions
that require shareholder votes. We are currently in the process of determining
our strategy for the upcoming "proxy season". Of course, on an ongoing basis, we
communicate with the companies in the portfolio whenever there are questions or
concerns about their activities. We have also participated in several
letterwriting campaigns dealing with issues ranging from the United States
Department of Agriculture's National Organic Standards Proposal and its Review
of Genetically Engineered Food Products to the Eu-ropean Union Directive on
Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION
Portfolio 21 (the "Fund") is a series of shares of beneficial interest of
Professionally Managed Portfolios (the "Trust"), which is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. The Fund began operations on September 30, 1999.
The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital. The
Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily in equity securities.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
A. SECURITIES VALUATION. Securities traded on a national securities
exchange or Nasdaq are valued at the last reported sale price at the
close of regular trading on each day that the exchanges are open for
trading; securities traded on an exchange or Nasdaq for which there
have been no sales, and other over-the-counter securities, are valued
at the last reported bid price. Securities for which quotations are
not readily available are valued at their respective fair values as
determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. Short-term
investments are stated at cost, which when combined with accrued
interest, approximates market value.
B. FOREIGN CURRENCY. Foreign currency amounts, other than the cost of
investments, are translated into U.S. dollar values based upon the
spot exchange rate at the close of regular trading. The cost of
investments is translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the
dates the portfolio securities were acquired. The Fund includes
foreign exchange gains and losses from dividend receivable and other
foreign currency denominated payables and receivables in realized and
unrealized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency. The Fund
does not isolate that portion of realized and unrealized gain (loss)
on investments resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on
investments from fluctuations arising from changes in the market price
of securities for financial reporting purposes. Fluctuations in
foreign exchange rates on investments are thus included with net
realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments and foreign
currency.
C. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The Fund intends to comply with the requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to shareholders.
Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
11
<PAGE>
PORTFOLIO 21
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued
At August 31, 2000, the Fund had a capital loss carry forward
available for federal income tax purposes of $8,048 which expires in
2007.
D. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME AND DISTRIBUTIONS. Security
transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The cost of
securities sold is determined on a specific identification basis.
Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
E. USE OF ESTIMATES. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Progressive Investment Management Corporation (the "Advisor") provides the
Fund with investment management services under an Investment Advisory Agreement
(the "Agreement"). Under the Agreement, the Advisor furnishes all investment
advice, office space, facilities, and most of the personnel needed by the Fund.
As compensation for its services, the Advisor is entitled to a monthly fee at
the annual rate of 1.00% of Fund's average daily net assets. For the period
ended August 31, 2000, the Fund incurred $35,632 in advisory fees.
The Fund is responsible for its own expenses. The Advisor has contractually
agreed to limit the Fund's expenses by reducing all or a portion of its fees and
reimbursing the Fund's expenses, excluding interest and tax expenses, so that
its ratio of expenses to average net assets will not exceed 1.50%. In the case
of the Fund's initial period of operations, any fee withheld or voluntarily
reduced and/or any Fund expense absorbed by the Advisor pursuant to an agreed
upon expense cap shall be reimbursed by the Fund to the Advisor, if so requested
by the Advisor, anytime before the end of the fifth fiscal year following the
year to which the fee waiver and/or expense absorption relates, provided the
aggregate amount of the Fund's current operating expenses for such fiscal year
does not exceed the applicable limitation on Fund expenses. The Fund must pay
its current ordinary operating expenses before the Advisor is entitled to any
reimbursement of fees and/or expenses. Any such reimbursement is also contingent
upon Board of Trustees review and approval prior to the time the reimbursement
is initiated. For the period ended August 31, 2000, the Advisor waived fees of
$35,632 and absorbed expenses of $70,945.

PORTFOLIO 21
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued

Fund's administrator under an Administration Agreement. The Administrator
prepares various federal and state regulatory filings, reports and returns for
the Fund; prepares reports and materials to be supplied to the trustees;
monitors the activities of the Fund's custodian, transfer agent and accountants;
coordinates the preparation and payment of Fund expenses and reviews the Fund's
expense accruals. For its services, the Administrator receives a monthly fee at
the following annual rate:
Under $15 million $30,000
----------------- -------
$15 to $50 million 0.20% of average daily net assets
$50 to $100 million 0.15% of average daily net assets
$100 to $150 million 0.10% of average daily net assets
Over $150 million 0.05% of average daily net assets
For the period ended August 31, 2000, the Fund incurred $27,542 in
administration fees.
First Fund Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor") acts as the Fund's
principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of the Fund's shares. The
Distributor is an affiliate of the Administrator.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are also officers and/or
directors of the Administrator and Distributor.
NOTE 4 - DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") in accordance with
Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plan provides that the Fund will pay a fee to
the Advisor, as Distribution Coordinator, at an annual rate of 0.25% of the
average daily net assets of the Fund. The fee is paid to the Advisor as
reimbursement for, or in anticipation of, expenses incurred for
distribution-related activity. For the period ended August 31, 2000, the Fund
incurred $8,908 in distribution fees.
NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
The cost of purchases and the proceeds from sales of securities for the
period ended August 31, 2000, excluding short-term investments, were $6,466,502
and $6,545, respectively.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Shareholders of
Portfolio 21
The Board of Trustees of
Professional Managed Portfolios
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, of Portfolio 21, a series of Professional Managed
Portfolios, as of August 31, 2000, and the related statement of operations, the
statements of changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for the period
then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our
procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2000, by
correspondence with the custodians and brokers. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Portfolio 21 as of August 31, 2000, the results of its operations, the changes
in its net assets and the financial highlights for the period then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
