METROPOLITAN WEST FUNDS

Dear Fellow Shareholder,

Thank you for your ongoing investment in the Metropolitan West Funds. For the September 2011 Semi-Annual Report, we are pleased to report that the Funds continue to receive robust sponsorship, resulting in the crossing of the $21 billion asset threshold for all the Funds, led by the share classes of the Total Return Fund with just under $17 billion of investor holdings. The steady inflows continue to provide an excellent backdrop for the implementation of strategies, as investments are carefully considered and made across the Funds. Moreover, sustained investor appetite affords an opportunity to establish new funds to meet the demand.

Such is the case with the creation of the Metropolitan West Unconstrained Bond Fund (Tickers: MWCRX, MWCIX), which commenced operations on October 1. Designed to take advantage of temporary and persistent inefficiencies across the global fixed income markets, this highly flexible strategy seeks to deliver consistently positive returns in all market conditions. In addition to a duration profile that can extend from -3 to +8 years and high yield latitude up to 50% of the Fund, Unconstrained Bond will be the first of the MetWest Funds to take advantage of the international and emerging market bond management capabilities created when Trust Company of the West acquired MetWest in 2010. In the prevailing low U.S. Treasury rate environment, the Fund offers the opportunity for incremental yield in a value-oriented and risk-controlled manner. A prospectus and additional information on the Unconstrained Bond Fund can be found at www.mwamllc.com.

Economic Review and Market Environment

Following months of volatility owing to continued economic weakness and apparent intractability to the ongoing European debt problems, all that was needed for a replay of 2010 (and momentum to close out the year) was a signal of commitment from the Federal Reserve (Fed) at its annual August Jackson Hole retreat that yet another round of quantitative easing was on the way. Either the markets have developed some resistance to Chairman Bernanke’s verbal vaccinations or another 12 months of 9% unemployment and irresolute EU central bankers have worn down investors, as the capital markets outside of government issues fell over the six months, selling off sharply during the last quarter. From June month-end, equities slumped by nearly 14%, while the “plus” bond sectors of U.S. high yield fell 6% and emerging markets dropped 4%. Although a U.S. Treasury flight-to-safety rally has historically been characteristic of such circumstances, Standard & Poor’s early August downgrade to AA+ had the potential for considerable chaos and a spike in yields. Proving not to be the case and highlighting investor disregard for the rating agencies, U.S. Treasury prices climbed as the 5- and 10-Year traded below the 1% and 2% rate milestones. In concluding its scheduled September meeting, the Fed announced the Maturity Extension Program and Reinvestment Policy designed to shift $400 billion in U.S. Treasury holdings to longer maturities and flatten the yield curve, which it did, bringing the 30-Year U.S. Treasury yield to sub-3% to end the third quarter. So, one month removed from a downgrade that would punish any other debtor with higher borrowing costs, the U.S. enjoyed apparently undiminished sponsorship and reduced interest rates. A developed world in financial turmoil and few alternatives will do that...at least for now.

The rallying U.S. Treasury translated to a robust six months for returns on government bond indexes, also lifting diversified broadly diversified investment grade benchmarks to solidly positive returns. Highlighting the asset class, the Barclays U.S. Treasury Index gained 9% over the last six months, as its Long component soared nearly 29%. Though lagging the U.S. Treasury market, the Barclays Aggregate returned 6.2% over the same time frame, as each sector experienced a widening in yield spreads that was more than covered by the decline in U.S. Treasury rates, producing positive performance among corporate (+5.2%), mortgage-backed (+4.4%) and asset-backed (+4.2%) securities. Within the corporate sector, financial issuers faced continuing challenges due to (1) perceptions of asset quality on their balance sheets – housing and Europe exposure drawing the most concern – and (2) profit pressure arising from the Fed’s “twist” Maturity Extension program, which is likely to reduce income receipts from U.S. Treasury investments by banks. As a consequence, financials slipped 1.4% during the quarter (and gained just 0.5% for the six months), as risk premiums climbed, significantly increasing the relative cost of capital. (Investors in financial stocks liked it less, sending shares tumbling by 22% in the third quarter alone.) Among agency mortgages, concerns about the potential for a mass auto-refinance program widened

 

Semi-Annual Report September 2011 / 1


spreads until announcement of the Fed’s Reinvestment Policy, which calls for maturing agency debt proceeds and principal and interest payments from agency MBS on its balance sheet to be reinvested in agency mortgages. Not surprisingly, the increase in expected demand reversed the widening caused by fears that a rapid acceleration in prepayments would repay at par ($100) bonds currently trading at a premium (>$100). In the non-agency mortgage market, pricing eased as fundamental weakness persisted and appetite from investors remained limited following the government’s challenged Maiden Lane II liquidation earlier in 2011.

The Economy and Market Ahead

Entering the last part of the year, market indications – particularly U.S. Treasury rates and high yield risk premiums at 800 basis points - suggest an economy at stall speed at best or on the verge of contraction at worst. Consumers are saddled with high unemployment and diminished net worth and businesses, while profitable and somewhat flush with cash, have experienced limited revenue growth and curbed appetite for investment. Meanwhile, the political tide has turned on government stimulus, with further accumulation of Federal debt no longer viewed as productive by a Congressional majority. While recognizing the challenges, a deep 2008-style recession appears unlikely. Significantly, the deleveraging that has occurred over the past three-plus years has limited the buildup of excesses that would presage a considerable pullback. As a result, the degree of decline in U.S. Treasury yields appears far more pronounced than supported by the fundamentals. Nevertheless, generating sufficient growth to bring down stubbornly elevated joblessness will be a central theme of the ongoing partisan rancor and upcoming Presidential campaign. Is it naïve to think any legislatively-sponsored consensus is possible? At least the “independent” Fed, though largely exhausted of conventional measures, has pursued novel approaches to build confidence, reduce volatility and sustain momentum. In contrast to the market signals, recent readings indicate that some pickup in activity has been apparent in the leading economic indicators, as well as manufacturing and services, while price indexes have been well-removed from deflation. Just a year ago, much of the market chatter referred to potential inflation and how high U.S. Treasury rates might rise after the end of the Fed’s second round of quantitative easing. Those fears proved premature in 2011, but can it be long before the market begins imagining a 4% 10-Year U.S. Treasury yield again?

Positioning across the Funds certainly imagines higher U.S. Treasury rates, thus informing durations that remain decidedly short of the designated indexes by approximately three-quarters of a year. With lofty prices and stingy yields in the U.S. government markets, the Funds continue to underweight exposure in favor better of risk-adjusted opportunities elsewhere in the fixed income market. The most pronounced overweight, in general, is in mortgage-backed securities via a combination of agency and non-agency issues. As the Fed has renewed its commitment as the marginal buyer of MBS, pricing support should remain favorable and subject to further improvement as clarity develops around a refinancing program. Non-agency issues continue to trade at deep discounts (furthered by easing prices over the past six months), representing an attractive risk-adjusted opportunity, captured in a Fund overweight. Investment grade corporate exposure remains in line with the Aggregate index, though the allocation to financials represents a significant overweight within the sector, as yields are suitably compensatory of the risks. In high yield, the industry emphasis favors utility credits, which offer good yields and solid asset backing while tending to perform relatively well in slower growth environments. And lastly, top-of-the-capital structure commercial mortgage-backed securities remain an overweight predicated on solid credit enhancement, while recent purchases have been in 2011-vintage issues, with upgraded underwriting standards.

Data sources for the discussion above include Bloomberg, Barclays, and Merrill Lynch.

Fund Results

General Performance Commentary

With short durations and U.S. Treasury underweights relative to the various indexes, Fund returns lagged their respective benchmarks over the past six months. Relative weakness in the spread sectors was a persistent theme and weighed on performance throughout the second and third quarters. The overweight to financials in the investment grade oriented strategies was a notable drag as banks and brokers continue a halting recovery from the 2008 global financial crisis. While security selection within agency mortgages was marginally additive due to a focus on less prepayment prone issues, the continued weighting in non-agency mortgage-backed issues comprised of prime, subprime and Alt-A collateral was a detractor. Specific to the High Yield Fund, a combination of short duration and issue-specific volatility contributed to the lag, as did an overweight to floating rate issues and bank loans, which have labored to produce significant income under low LIBOR conditions.

Given expectations that the economic backdrop would be difficult and external catalysts – European crisis, U.S. debt ceiling debate – would likely arise periodically to trigger volatility, the recent performance pattern has not been especially surprising. Meanwhile, the conditions have afforded an opportunity to continue enhancing the Funds’ return-risk profiles.

A Consistent Long-Term Value Orientation

We remain committed to an investment approach that emphasizes a long-term perspective and an understanding that market pricing can and does come disconnected to fundamental value on a persistent basis. By maintaining discipline, we expect to continue adding value to client portfolios in a measured, risk-controlled manner. Diversification is a cornerstone to the portfolio construction, not only in the traditional manner of allocating across maturities, sectors and individual securities, but also in the decisions – duration, yield curve positioning, sector allocation and security selection – that drive performance through time. While market conditions change constantly, our process is steadfast and vigilant to opportunities to bring value.

Metropolitan West Funds

Bond Funds have similar interest rates, issues, and credit risks as those associated with the underlying bonds in their portfolio, all of which could reduce a Fund’s value. As interest rates rise, the value of a Bond Fund can decline and an investor can lose principal. Additional risks to the funds include derivatives risk, foreign securities risk, asset-backed securities risk, and prepayment risk. The High Yield Bond Fund purchases more speculative bonds, which are subject to greater risks than higher rated bonds, including “leverage risk”. The Strategic Income Fund engages in sophisticated investment strategies, and is subject to short sales and leverage risks. The AlphaTrak 500 trades futures and derivative contracts. These Funds may not be suitable for all investors.

Derivatives risk refers to the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset. Foreign securities risk refers to the value of the Fund’s investments in foreign securities on changing currency values, political and economic environments in the countries where the Fund invests. Asset-backed securities risk refers to certain asset-backed securities do not have the benefit of the same security interest in the related collateral as do mortgage-backed securities; nor are they provided government guarantees of repayment. Prepayment risk refers to the possibility that falling interest rates may cause the owners of the underlying to pay off their mortgages at a faster than expected rate. This tends to reduce returns since the funds prepaid will have to be reinvested at the then lower prevailing rates. Short sale risk refers to the limited ability of the Fund to sell a debt or equity security short (without owning it) and to borrow the same security from a broker or other institution to complete the sale. If the value of the short sale increases, a Fund would lose money because it will need to replace the borrowed security by purchasing it at a higher price. Leverage Risk refers to the limited ability of Fund to borrow from broker-dealers or other institutions to leverage a transaction, provided that the borrowing is fully-collateralized. The Fund’s assets may change in value while the borrowing is outstanding which could create interest expenses that can exceed the income from the assets retained.

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive and/or reimburse certain fees for the Metropolitan West Ultra Short Bond Fund, Intermediate Bond Fund, High Yield Bond Fund and AlphaTrak 500 Fund until July 31, 2012.

 The views and forecasts expressed here are as of November 2011, are subject to change without notice and may not come to pass. Investment strategies may not achieve the desired results due to implementation lag, other timing factors, portfolio management decision making, economic or market conditions or other unanticipated factors.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses

For the Six Months Ended September 30, 2011 (Unaudited)

We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of fees regarding your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a mutual fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund. A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing fees (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

This table illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:

Actual Fund Return: This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses, after any applicable fee waivers, that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the Fund’s actual return for the past six-month period, the “Expense Ratio” column shows the period’s annualized expense ratio, and the “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund at the beginning of the period.

You may use the information here, together with your account value, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, 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 given for your Fund in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”

Hypothetical 5% Return: This section is intended to help you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the return used is not the Fund’s actual return, the results do not apply to your investment. This example is useful in making comparisons to other mutual funds because the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on an assumed 5% annual return. You can assess your Fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expense shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. The Metropolitan West Funds do not charge any sales loads or exchange fees, but these may be present in other funds to which you compare this data. Therefore, the hypothetical portions of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

The Sector Diversification is presented as a percentage of net assets. The Distribution by Quality Rating and Distribution by Maturity are presented as a percentage of market value. Credit rating distributions for each Fund were determined by giving each fixed income security the highest rating assigned by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. If a security is not rated, the Adviser has assigned a credit rating based upon the credit rating of comparable quality-rated securities.

In addition to its annual and semi-annual reports, the Funds file a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Funds’ most recent Form N-Q was filed for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.

b

The maximum potential payment the Fund could be required to make as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of the swap agreement.

c

The values for credit default swap agreements serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represents the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative should the notional amount of the swap agreement been closed/sold as of the period-end. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

The maximum potential payment the Fund could be required to make as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of the swap agreement.

The values for credit default swap agreements serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represents the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative should the notional amount of the swap agreement been closed/sold as of the period-end.

The maximum potential payment the Fund could be required to make as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of the swap agreement.

c

The values for credit default swap agreements serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represents the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative should the notional amount of the swap agreement been closed/sold as of the period-end. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

a 

The maximum potential payment the Fund could be required to make as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of the swap agreement.

 

b 

The values for credit default swap agreements serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represents the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative should the notional amount of the swap agreement been closed/sold as of the period-end. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

1.    SUMMARY OF ORGANIZATION

The Metropolitan West Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust on December 9, 1996 and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Metropolitan West Asset Management, LLC (the “Adviser”), a federally registered investment adviser, provides the Funds (as defined below) with investment management services. The Trust currently consists of seven separate portfolios (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”): Metropolitan West Ultra Short Bond Fund (the “Ultra Short Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West Low Duration Bond Fund (the “Low Duration Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West Intermediate Bond Fund (the “Intermediate Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West Total Return Bond Fund (the “Total Return Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West High Yield Bond Fund (the “High Yield Bond Fund”), Metropolitan West Strategic Income Fund (the “Strategic Income Fund”), and Metropolitan West AlphaTrak 500 Fund (the “AlphaTrak 500 Fund”). The Low Duration Bond Fund commenced investment operations on March 31, 1997 with the M Class shares. I Class was added on March 31, 2000, and the Administrative Class was added on September 22, 2009. The Total Return Bond Fund also commenced operations on March 31, 1997 with the M Class shares. I Class was added on March 31, 2000; Administrative Class followed on December 18, 2009 and the new Plan Class launched on August 1, 2011. The AlphaTrak 500 Fund – Class M commenced investment operations on June 29, 1998. The Intermediate Bond Fund – Class I commenced operations on June 28, 2002. The High Yield Bond Fund – Class M commenced operations on September 30, 2002. The High Yield Bond Fund – Class I commenced operations on March 31, 2003. Class M shares of the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Ultra Short Bond Fund, and the Strategic Income Fund commenced operations on June 30, 2003. The Strategic Income Fund – Class I commenced operations on March 31, 2004 and the Ultra Short Bond Fund – Class I commenced operations on July 31, 2004.

The Ultra Short Bond Fund seeks to maximize current income, consistent with preservation of capital.This Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of up to one year. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity will normally exceed one year.

The Low Duration Bond Fund seeks to maximize current income, consistent with preservation of capital. This Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of up to three years.The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from one to five years.

The Intermediate Bond Fund seeks to maximize current income, consistent with preservation of capital. This Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of one to six years. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from three to seven years.

The Total Return Bond Fund seeks to maximize long-term total return. This Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of two to eight years. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from two to fifteen years.

The High Yield Bond Fund seeks to maximize long-term total return consistent with preservation of capital. This Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of high-yield, fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of two to eight years. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from two to fifteen years.

The Strategic Income Fund seeks to maximize long-term total return without tracking any particular markets or indices. This Fund uses techniques intended to provide absolute (positive) returns in all markets by employing a strategy intended to produce high income while exploiting disparities or inefficiencies in markets. The Fund will focus on inefficiencies related to secured or asset-backed debt compared with unsecured and subordinated debt or equity of companies and issuers. Additionally, the Fund will focus on longer-term cyclical anomalies in the fixed income markets to both enhance yield and realize potential price appreciation. These anomalies include: shifts in the portfolio’s duration, yield curve anomalies, and sector- and issue-specific dislocations.

The AlphaTrak 500 Fund seeks to achieve a total return that exceeds the total return of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (the “S&P 500 Index”). The Fund combines non-leveraged investments in S&P 500 Index futures contracts and swaps with a diversified portfolio of fixed-income securities of varying maturities with a portfolio duration of up to three years. The Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity is expected to range from one to five years.

2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds:

Net Asset Value:

The Net Asset Value of each Fund’s shares is determined by dividing the net assets attributable to each class of shares of the Fund by the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Class/Fund on each business day as of 4 p.m. ET.

Security Valuation:

Fixed-income securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at prices as provided by independent pricing vendors or broker quotes. The Funds receive pricing information from independent pricing vendors approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Securities with a demand feature exercisable within one to seven days are valued at par. The Funds also use a benchmark pricing system to the extent vendor’s prices for their securities are either inaccurate (such as when the reported prices are different from recent known market transactions) or are not available from another pricing source. For a security priced using this system, the Adviser initially selects a proxy comprised of a relevant security (i.e., U.S. Treasury Note) or benchmark (e.g., LIBOR) and a multiplier, divisor or margin that the Adviser believes would together best reflect changes in the market value of the security. The value of the security changes daily based on changes to the market price of the assigned benchmark. The benchmark pricing system is continuously reviewed by the Adviser and implemented according to the pricing policy reviewed by the Board. Debt securities which mature in less than 60 days are valued at amortized cost if their original maturity was 60 days or less. If their original term to maturity exceeded 60 days, they are valued by amortizing the value as of the 61st day prior to maturity (unless the Board determines that this method does not represent fair value). S&P 500 Index futures contracts are valued at the first sale price after 4 p.m. ET on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. All other futures contracts are valued at the official settlement price of the exchange where it is traded. Equity securities, including depository receipts, are valued at the last reported sale price or the market’s closing price on the exchange or market on which such securities are traded, as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued or, lacking any sales, at the average of the bid and asked prices. In cases where equity securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securities are valued on the exchange or market determined by the Adviser to be the broadest and most representative market, which may be either a securities exchange or the over-the-counter market. Securities and other assets that cannot be valued as described above will be valued at their fair value as determined by the Adviser under guidelines established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the Board.

Investments in registered open-ended investment companies, including those classified as money market funds, are valued based upon the reported net asset value of such investments.

Securities and Derivatives Transactions and Investment Income:

Security transactions are accounted for no later than the first net asset value calculation on the first business day following the trade date. However, for financial reporting purposes, portfolio securities transactions are reported on trade date. Cost is determined and gains and losses are based on the first-in first-out method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued daily. Discounts, including original issue discount, and premiums on securities are amortized using the interest method.

Distributions to Shareholders:

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Funds (except the AlphaTrak 500 Fund) expect to declare distributions daily and pay them monthly to shareholders. TheAlphaTrak 500 Fund expects to declare and pay distributions to shareholders quarterly. Distributions of net capital gains, if any, will be made at least annually. The Board may determine to declare and make distributions more or less frequently.

Federal Income Taxation:

It is each Fund’s policy to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

Income and long-term capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ in amount or character from net investment income and realized gains for financial reporting purposes. Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character. Financial records are not adjusted for temporary differences.

 

Semi-Annual Report September 2011 / 119


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (current and prior three tax years), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

As of and during the period ended September 30, 2011, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

On December 22, 2010, The U.S. government passed the Regulated Investment Company ModernizationAct of 2010 (the “Modernization Act”). The Modernization Act is the first major piece of legislation affecting Regulated Investment Companies (“RICs”) since 1986 and it modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs. One of the provisions allows a RIC to carry forward capital losses indefinitely, and retain the character of the original loss. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years, and carried forward as short-term capital, irrespective of the character of the original loss. Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Modernization Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.

Cash and cash equivalents:

The Trust has defined cash and cash equivalents as cash which can be in interest-bearing accounts. The Funds also maintain cash in bank account deposits that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Funds have not experienced any losses in any such accounts and do not believe they are exposed to any significant credit risk on such bank deposits.

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 increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements:

Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows:

* Level 1 - unadjusted 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 that are not corroborated by observable market data

The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments and the determination of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to each security.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

In periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition, as well as changes related to liquidity of investments, could cause a security to be reclassified between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Money Market Funds. Money Market Funds are open-ended mutual fund that invest in short-term debt securities To the extent that these funds are valued based upon the reported net asset value, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

120 / Semi-Annual Report September 2011


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

Equity securities. Securities are generally valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange. To the extent these securities are actively traded, valuation adjustments are not applied and they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Restricted securities issued by publicly held companies are valued at a discount to similar publicly traded securities and may be categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy to the extent that the discount is considered to be insignificant to the fair value measurement in its entirety, otherwise they may be categorized as Level 3. Restricted securities held in non-public entities are included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently, and, therefore, the inputs are unobservable.

Corporate bonds. The fair value of corporate bonds is estimated using recently executed transactions, market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads, or credit default swap spreads adjusted for any basis difference between cash and derivative instruments. Corporate bonds are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; in instances where prices, spreads, or any of the other aforementioned key inputs are unobservable, they are categorized in Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities. The fair value of asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities is estimated based on models that consider the estimated cash flows of each debt tranche of the issuer, establish a benchmark yield, and develop an estimated tranche specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche including, but not limited to, the prepayment speed assumptions and attributes of the collateral. To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, the values would be categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they would be categorized as Level 3.

Bank loans. The fair value of bank loans is estimated using recently executed transactions, market price quotations, credit/market events, and cross-asset pricing. Inputs are generally observable market inputs obtained from independent sources . Bank Loans are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, unless key inputs are unobservable which would then be in Level 3.

Municipal Bonds. Municipal bonds are fair valued based on pricing models that take into account, among other factors, information received from market makers and broker-dealers, current trades, bid-want lists, offerings, market movements, the callability of the bond, state of issuance, benchmark yield curves, and bond insurance. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of municipal bonds would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.

U.S. Government and agency securities. U.S. government and agency securities are normally valued using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, quoted market prices, and reference data. Accordingly, U.S. government and agency securities are normally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Restricted securities. Restricted securities that are deemed to be both Rule 144A securities and illiquid, as well as restricted securities held in non-public entities, are included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently, and, therefore, the inputs are unobservable. Any other restricted securities are valued at a discount to similar publicly traded securities and may be categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy to the extent that the discount is considered to be insignificant to the fair value measurement in its entirety, otherwise they may be categorized as Level 3.

Futures Contracts. Futures contracts and options on futures contracts that are traded on commodity exchanges and are fair valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange, and to the extent valuation adjustments are not applied to futures contracts, they are categorized as Level 1; otherwise they would be categorized as Level 2 or 3 depending on observability.

Options Contracts. Exchange listed options contracts that are traded on securities exchanges and are fair valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange, and to the extent valuation adjustments are not applied or mean variation to exchange listed options contracts, they are categorized as Level 1. If valuation adjustments are applied and such adjustments are observable and timely, the fair values of exchange listed options contracts would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3. Options contracts traded over the counter (“OTC”) are fair valued based on pricing models and incorporates various inputs such as interest rates, credit spreads, currency exchange rates and volatility measurements for in-the-money, at-the-money, and out-of-the-money contracts based on a given strike price. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of OTC option contracts would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.

Interest Rate Swaps. Interest rate swaps are fair valued using pricing models that are based on real-time intraday snap shots of relevant interest rate curves that are built using the most actively traded securities for a given maturity. The pricing models also incorporate cash and money market rates. In addition, market data pertaining to interest rate swaps are monitored regularly to ensure that interest rates are properly depicting the current market rate. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of interest rate swaps would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.

Credit Default Swaps. Credit default swaps are fair valued using pricing models that take into account, among other factors, information received from market makers and broker-dealers, default probabilities from index specific credit spread curves, recovery rates, and cash flows. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of credit default swaps would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.

Total Return Swaps. Total Return swaps are fair valued using pricing models that take into account among other factors, index spread curves, nominal values, modified duration values and cash flows. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of total return swaps would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.

As of September 30, 2011, Level 3 securities consist of certain collateralized mortgage obligations, preferred stock and corporate bonds.

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04 “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements” in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”). ASU 2011-04 includes common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to disclose the following information for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy: quantitative information about the unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement, the valuation processes used by the reporting entity and a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs. In addition, ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to make disclosures about amounts and reasons for all transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. The new and revised disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Management is currently evaluating the implications of ASU No. 2011-04 and its impact on the financial statements.

For the six months ended September 30, 2011, none of the portfolios had significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2.

PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS

The Funds may invest in mortgage pass-through securities which represent interests in pools of mortgages in which payments of both principal and interest on the securities are generally made monthly, in effect “passing through” monthly payments made by borrowers on the residential or commercial mortgage loans which underlie the securities (net of any fees paid to the issuer or guarantor of the securities). Mortgage pass-through securities differ from other forms of debt securities, which normally provide for periodic payment of interest in fixed amounts with principal payments at maturity or specified call dates.

The Funds may invest in securities issued by Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. (“FHLMC”). These are fixed-income securities that derive their value from or represent interests in a pool of mortgages or mortgage securities. An unexpectedly high rate of defaults on the mortgages held by a mortgage pool may adversely affect the value of a mortgage-backed security and could result in losses to the Funds. The risk of such defaults is generally higher in the case of mortgage pools that include sub-prime mortgages. Sub-prime mortgages refer to loans made to borrowers with weakened credit histories or with a lower capacity to make timely payments on their mortgages.

Additionally, securities issued by FNMA and FHLMC are not backed by or entitled to the full faith and credit of the United States and are supported by the right to the issuer to borrow from the Treasury.

On September 7, 2008, the Federal Housing Finance Agency was appointed as conservator of FNMA and FHLMC. In addition, the U.S. Department of the Treasury has agreed to provide capital as needed to ensure FNMA and FHLMC continue to provide liquidity to the housing and mortgage markets.

The Funds may also invest in Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (“CMOs”). CMOs are debt obligations collateralized by residential or commercial mortgage loans or residential or commercial mortgage pass-through securities. Interest and principal are generally paid monthly. CMOs may be collateralized by whole mortgage loans or private mortgage pass-through securities but are more typically collateralized by portfolios of mortgage pass-through securities guaranteed by Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), FHLMC, or FNMA. The issuer of a series of CMOs may elect to be treated for tax purposes as a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit. CMOs are structured into multiple classes, each bearing a different stated maturity. Monthly payment of principal received from the pool of underlying mortgages, including prepayments, is first returned to investors holding the shortest maturity class. Investors holding the longer maturity classes usually receive principal only after shorter classes have been retired. An investor may be partially protected against a sooner than desired return of principal because of the sequential payments.

The Funds may enter into to be announced (“TBA”) commitments to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future date. TBA commitments are considered securities in themselves, and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased or sold

 

Semi-Annual Report September 2011 / 129


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

declines or increases prior to settlement date, which is in addition to the risk of decline in the value of the Funds’ other assets. Unsettled TBA commitments are valued at the current market value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described in Note 2 under “Security Valuation”.

The Funds may invest in Collateralized Bond Obligations (“CBOs”), Collateralized Loan Obligations (“CLOs”) and other Collateralized Debt Obligations (“CDOs”), which are debt instruments backed solely by a pool of other debt securities. The risks of an investment in a CBO, CLO or other CDO depend largely on the type of the collateral securities and the class of the CBO, CLO or other CDO in which a Fund invests. Some CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs have credit ratings, but are typically issued in various classes with various priorities. Normally, CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs are privately offered and sold (that is, not registered under the securities laws) and may be characterized by the Funds as illiquid securities, but an active dealer market may exist for CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs that qualify for Rule 144A transactions. In addition to the normal interest rate, default and other risks of fixed income securities CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs carry additional risks, including the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments, the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default, the Funds may invest in CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs that are subordinate to other classes, volatility in value, and the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results.

The Funds may invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities issued by the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities. Stripped mortgage-backed securities are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. In certain cases, one class will receive all of the interest (the interest-only or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only or “PO” class). During the six months ended September 30, 2011, certain interest only securities were held as part of the overall mortgage portfolio holdings. The yield to maturity on IOs is sensitive to the rate of principal repayments (including prepayments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and principal payments may have a material effect on yield to maturity. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, a Fund may not fully recoup its initial investment in IOs. Such securities will be considered liquid only if so determined in accordance with guidelines established by the Board. The Funds also may invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities that are privately issued. These securities will be considered illiquid for purposes of each Fund’s limit on illiquid securities.

The Funds may purchase participations in commercial loans, or may purchase assignments of such loans. Such indebtedness may be secured or unsecured. Loan participations typically represent direct participation in a loan to a corporate borrower, and generally are offered by banks or other financial institutions or lending syndicates. The Funds may participate in such syndications, or can buy part of a loan, becoming a part lender. When purchasing loan participations, a Fund assumes the credit risk associated with the corporate borrower and may assume the credit risk associated with an interposed bank or other financial intermediary. The participation interests in which a Fund intends to invest may not be rated by any nationally recognized rating service. Participations and assignments also involve special types of risk, including interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and the risk of being a lender. If the Fund purchases a participation, it may only be able to enforce its rights through the lender, and may assume the credit risk of the lender in addition to the borrower.

The Funds may also sell a debt or equity security short that is, without owning it and borrow the same security from a broker or other institution to complete the sale. The Adviser may use short sales when it believes a security is overvalued or as a partial hedge against a position in a related security of the same issuer held by a Fund. The Ultra Short Bond Fund, Low Duration Bond Fund, Intermediate Bond Fund, and Total Return Bond Fund, will not make total short sales exceeding 25% of the value of that Fund’s assets. The High Yield Bond Fund and Strategic Income Fund will not make total short sales exceeding 33 1/3% of the Fund’s assets. If the value of the security sold short increases, a Fund would lose money because it would need to replace the borrowed security by purchasing it at a higher price. The potential loss is unlimited. (If the short sale was intended as a hedge against another investment, the loss on the short sale may be fully or partially offset by gains in that other investment.) At September 30, 2011, the Funds did not hold any short debt or equity.

A lender may request that the borrowed securities be returned on short notice; if that occurs at a time when other short sellers of the subject security are receiving similar requests, a “short squeeze” can occur. This means that the Fund might be compelled, at the most disadvantageous time, to replace borrowed securities previously sold short, with purchases on the open market at prices significantly greater than those at which the securities were sold short. Short selling also may produce higher than normal portfolio turnover and result in increased transaction costs to the Fund. The Funds also may make short sales “against-the-box”, in which the Funds sell short securities they own. The Funds will incur transaction costs, including interest expenses, in connection with opening, maintaining and closing short sales against-the-box, which result in a “constructive sale”, requiring the Fund to recognize any taxable gain from the transaction.

The Funds may enter into reverse repurchase agreements, whereby a Fund sells securities concurrently with entering into an agreement to repurchase those securities at a later date at a fixed price. During the reverse repurchase agreement period, the Fund continues to receive principal and interest payments on those securities. Reverse repurchase agreements are speculative techniques involving

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

leverage and are considered borrowings by the Fund for purposes of the percentage limitations applicable to borrowings. There were no reverse repurchase agreements for the six months ended September 30, 2011.

Each Fund may enter into when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment transactions in order to lock in the purchase price of the underlying security, or in order to adjust the interest rate exposure of the Fund’s existing portfolio. In when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment transactions, a Fund commits to purchase or sell particular securities, with payment and delivery to take place at a future date. Although a Fund does not pay for the securities or start earning interest on them until they are delivered, it immediately assumes the risks of ownership, including the risk of price fluctuation. If a Fund’s counterparty fails to deliver a security purchased on a when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment basis, there may be a loss, and that Fund may have missed an opportunity to make an alternative investment.

Prior to settlement of these transactions, the value of the subject securities will fluctuate, reflecting interest rate changes. In addition, because a Fund is not required to pay for when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment securities until the delivery date, they must result in a form of leverage to the extent a Fund does not maintain liquid assets equal to the face amount of the contract. The Funds segregate assets (cash and/or securities) to cover the amounts outstanding related to these transactions.

Derivatives:

The Funds engaged in various portfolio investment strategies both to increase the return of the Fund and to economically hedge, or protect, their exposure to interest rate movements and movements in the securities markets. Losses may arise if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the price of the underlying security or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The Funds are subject to credit risk, equity price risk and interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives by investing in various derivative financial instruments, as described below:

Over the reporting period, the Funds engaged in interest rate futures contracts, swap agreements and options as a means of managing interest rate risk and yield curve positioning consistent with the advisor’s current market perspectives. Additionally, credit default swaps were held for the purposes of (1) hedging valuation risks specific to identified market segments, industries and credits and (2) efficiently gaining income-bearing exposures to selected market segments, industries and credits. The market value of these instruments, realized and changes in unrealized gains and losses, the types of contracts are included in the Schedule of Portfolio Investments and the Notes to Financial Statements.

Options - The Funds purchased and wrote call and put options on securities, securities indices and on foreign currencies. A Fund may purchase put options on securities to seek to protect holdings in an underlying or related security against a substantial decline in market value. A Fund may purchase call options on securities to seek to protect against substantial increases in prices of securities the Fund intends to purchase pending its ability to invest in such securities in an orderly manner. A Fund may write a call or put option only if the option is covered by the Fund’s holding a position in the underlying securities or by other means which would permit immediate satisfaction of the Fund’s obligation as writer of the option. The purchase and writing of options involves certain risks. During the option period, the covered call writer has, in return for the premium on the option, given up the opportunity to profit from a price increase in the underlying securities above the sum of the premium and exercise price, but, as long as its obligation as a writer continues, has retained the risk of loss should the price of the underlying securities decline. The writer of an option has no control over the time when it maybe required to fulfill its obligation as a writer of the option. Once an option writer has received an exercise notice, it cannot effect a closing purchase transaction in order to terminate its obligation under the option and must deliver the underlying securities at the exercise price. If a put or call option purchased by the Fund is not sold when it has remaining value, and if the market price of the underlying security, in the case of a put, remains equal to or greater than the exercise price or, in the case of a call, remains less than or equal to the exercise price, the Fund will lose its entire investment in the option. There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist when a Fund seeks to close out an option position. Furthermore, if trading restrictions or suspensions are imposed on the options markets, a Fund may be unable to close out a position.

The Funds may execute transactions in both listed and over-the-counter options. Listed options involve minimal counterparty risk since listed options are guaranteed against default by the exchange on which they trade. Transactions in certain over-the-counter options may expose the Funds to the risk of default by the counterparty to the transaction. In the event of default by the counterparty to the over-the-counter option transaction, the Fund’s maximum amount of loss is the premium paid (as purchaser) or the unrealized loss of the contract (as writer).

Futures - The Funds purchased or sold exchange-traded futures contracts, which are contracts that obligate the Fund to make or take delivery of a financial instrument or the cash value of a security index at a specified future date at a specified price. The Funds may use futures contracts to manage exposure to the stock and bond markets or changes in interest rates and currency values, or for gaining exposure to markets. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market at the time the Adviser to the Fund may be attempting to sell some or all the Fund holdings or that a change in the value of the contract may

 

Semi-Annual Report September 2011 / 131


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin). Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Fund, generally on a daily basis. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The Funds recognize a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires.

Futures transactions involve minimal counterparty risk since futures contracts are guaranteed against default by the exchange on which they trade.

Swaps - The Funds invested in swap agreements. Swap agreements are two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors for periods ranging from a few weeks to more than a year. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns earned on specific assets, such as the return on, or increase in value of, a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate, in a particular foreign currency, or in a basket of securities representing a particular index. A swap contract may not be assigned without the consent of the counterparty (and in certain circumstances may not be assignable), and may result in losses in the event of a default or bankruptcy of the counterparty.

The Funds entered into credit default swap agreements. The buyer in a credit default contract is obligated to pay the seller a periodic, stream of payments over the term of the contract provided no event of default has occurred. In the event of default, the seller must pay the buyer the par value (full notional value) of the reference obligation in exchange for the reference obligation. The Funds may be either the buyer or seller in such transactions. If the Fund is a buyer and no event of default occurs, the Fund loses its investment and recovers nothing. However, if an event of default occurs, the buyer receives full notional value for a reference obligation that may have little or no value. As a seller of a credit default swap, the Fund receives a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the contract, provided there is no default event. If an event of default occurs, the seller may pay the notional value of the reference obligation. The value of the reference obligation received by the seller, coupled with the periodic payments previously received may be less than the full notional value it pays to the buyer, resulting in a loss of value to the Fund. Credit default swaps involve greater risks than if the Fund had invested in the reference obligation directly. In addition to general market risks, credit default swaps are subject to illiquidity risk, counterparty risk and credit risk.

The aggregate fair value of credit default swaps in a net liability position is reflected as unrealized depreciation and is disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments. The collateral posted, net of assets received as collateral, for swap contracts is also disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments. The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a portfolio as a seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement is an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. Notional amounts of all credit default swap agreements outstanding as of September 30, 2011 for which a portfolio is the seller of protection are disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments. These potential amounts are partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by a portfolio for the same referenced entity or entities.

The Funds entered into interest rate swap agreements. Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a floating rate of interest on a notional principal amount and receives a fixed rate of interest on the same notional principal amount for a specified period of time. Alternatively, a party may pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate. In more complex swaps, the notional principal amount may decline (or amortize) over time. The Funds’ maximum risk of loss due to counterparty default is the discounted net asset value of the cash flows paid to/received from the counterparty over the interest rate swap’s remaining life. The Funds enter into interest rate swaps to manage duration, the yield curve or interest rate risk by economically hedging the value of the fixed-rate bonds which may decrease when interest rates rise (interest rate risk).

The Funds wrote (sold) and purchased put and call swaptions. Swaption contracts written by the Funds represent an option that gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a new swap agreement, or to shorten, extend, cancel or modify an existing swap agreement, on a future date on specified terms. Depending on the terms of the particular option agreement, a Fund will generally incur a greater degree of risk when it writes a swaption than it will incur when it purchases a swaption. When a Fund purchases a swaption, it risks losing only the amount of the premium it has paid should it decide to let the option expire unexercised. However, when a Fund writes a swaption, upon exercise of the option the Fund will become obligated according to the terms of the underlying agreement. At September 30, 2011, the Low Duration Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, and the Total Return Bond Fund held swaptions.

In addition to the securities listed above, the AlphaTrak 500 Fund invested in the following equity derivative instruments with a notional or contractual value up to its total assets: S&P 500 Index futures contracts, Mini S&P 500 Index futures contracts, options on the S&P 500 Index and S&P futures, and swap agreements involving the S&P 500 Index. When the above listed S&P Index derivatives appear to be overvalued relative to the S&P 500 Index, the Fund may invest up to 100% in the common stocks that comprise

 

132 / Semi-Annual Report September 2011


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

the S&P 500 Index. The Fund may also invest up to 25% of its total assets in these stocks indirectly by purchasing interests in one or more mutual funds, asset pools, or trusts that invest in such stocks.

The Funds may enter into total return swap agreements. Total return swap is the generic name for any non-traditional swap where one party agrees to pay the other the “total return” of a defined underlying asset, usually in return for receiving a stream of LIBOR based cash flows. The total return swap may be applied to any underlying asset but is most commonly used with equity indices, single stocks, bonds and defined portfolios of loans and mortgages. The total return swap is a mechanism for the user to accept the economic benefits of asset ownership without utilizing the balance sheet. The other leg of the swap, usually LIBOR, is spread to reflect the non-balance sheet nature of the product. Total return swaps can be designed with any underlying asset agreed between two parties.

As a result, unrealized gains are reported as an asset and unrealized losses are reported as a liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The change in the value of the swaps, including periodic amounts of interest paid or received on swaps is reported as unrealized gains or losses in both the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the Statements of Operations. A realized gain or loss is recorded upon payment or termination of swap agreements. Swap agreements are stated at fair value. Notional principal amounts are used upon payment or receipt of a periodic payment or termination of swap agreements to express the extent of involvement in these transactions, but the amounts subject to credit risk are much smaller. At September 30, 2011, the Funds had outstanding swap agreements as listed in the Funds’ Schedules of Portfolio Investments. Swap transactions present risk of loss in excess of the related amounts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

RISK CONSIDERATIONS

Market Risk: Because the values of the Funds’ investments will fluctuate with market conditions, so will the value of your investment in the Funds. You could lose money on your investment in the Funds or the Funds could underperform other investments.

Liquidity Risk: The Funds’ investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the Funds because they may not be able to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Investments in high-yield securities, foreign securities, derivatives or other securities with substantial market and/or credit risk tend to have the greatest exposure to liquidity risk. Certain investments in private placements and Rule 144A securities may be considered illiquid investments. The Funds may invest in private placements and Rule 144A securities.

Interest Rate Risk: The values of the Funds’ investments fluctuate in response to movements in interest rates. If rates rise, the values of debt securities generally fall. The longer the average duration of the Funds’ investment portfolio, the greater the change in value.

Mortgage-Backed and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: Each Fund may invest in mortgage-backed or other asset-backed securities. The values of some mortgaged-backed or other asset-backed securities may expose a Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. When interest rates rise, the value of mortgage-related securities generally will decline; however, when interest rates are declining, the value of mortgage related-securities with prepayment features may not increase as much as other fixed-income securities. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. If unanticipated rate of prepayment on underlying mortgages increase the effective maturity of a mortgage-related security, the volatility of the security can be expected to increase. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.

Derivatives Risk: Use of derivatives, which at times is an important part of the Funds’ investment strategy, involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Investments in derivatives could cause the Funds to lose more than the principal amount invested. Also, suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that the Funds will engage in these transactions to reduce exposure to other risks when that would be beneficial.

Credit Risk: The values of any of the Funds’ investments may also decline in response to events affecting the issuer or its credit rating. The lower rated debt securities in which the Fund may invest are considered speculative and are subject to greater volatility and risk of loss than investment-grade securities, particularly in deteriorating economic conditions. The value of some mortgage-related securities in which the Funds invest also may fall because of unanticipated levels of principal prepayments that can occur when interest rates decline.

Certain of the Funds invest a material portion of their assets in securities of issuers that hold mortgage- and asset-backed securities and direct investments in securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets. The value and related income of these securities is sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults. Continuing

 

Semi-Annual Report September 2011 / 133


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

shifts in the market’s perception of credit quality on securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets may result in increased volatility of market price and periods of illiquidity that can negatively impact the valuation of certain issuers held by the Funds.

Mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and Asset-backed securities (“ABS”) are characterized and classified in a variety of different ways. These classifications include a view of the securities’ cash flow structure (pass-through, sequential pay, prepayment-protected, interest-only, principal-only, etc.), the security of the claim on the underlying assets, (senior, mezzanine and subordinated), as well as types of underlying collateral (prime conforming loans, prime non-conforming loans, Alt-A loans, subprime loans, commercial loans, etc.) In many cases, the classification incorporates a degree of subjectivity: a particular loan might be categorized as “prime” by the underwriting standards of one mortgage issuer while another might classify the loan as “subprime.” In addition to other functions, the risk associated with an investment in a mortgage loan must take into account the nature of the collateral, the form and the level of credit enhancement, the vintage of the loan, the geography of the loan, the purpose of the loan (refinance versus purchase versus equity take-out), the borrower’s credit quality (e.g. FICO score), and whether the loan is a first trust deed or a second lien.

The mortgage industry lacks a single bright-line as to what separates a subprime loan from an Alt-A loan. Often it is a combination of loan characteristics involving both borrower criteria as well as collateral criteria that determine which category a loan is placed in. However, in order to be both conservative and objective as possible, the Adviser applied the following criteria to the Funds’ residential mortgage and asset-backed holdings in coming up with its categorizations:

Sub Prime - Any asset-backed bond whose collateral was residential mortgages were considered to be subprime, provided that the loans did not belong to the classification of manufactured housing loans.

Alt-A - Any mortgage-backed security whose average borrower FICO score was less than 730 and/or was listed as an Alt-A pool by Bloomberg were considered to be Alt-A bonds.

Counterparty Risk: The Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions may default. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to credit and counterparty risks, consist principally of investments and cash due from counterparties. The extent of the Funds’ exposure to credit and counterparty risks with respect to these financial assets is approximated by their fair value recorded in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

While no single measure can account for all the risk factors, one of the most commonly referenced aggregate risk metrics is the bond’s ratings per Moody’s and S&P. As of September 30, 2011, the market value exposure of these positions was as follows:

INVESTMENT ADVISORY SERVICES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS

As compensation for advisory services, the Adviser charges the Ultra Short Bond Fund, the Low Duration Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Total Return Bond Fund, and the High Yield Bond Fund a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.25%, 0.30%, 0.35%, 0.35%, and 0.50%, respectively, of each Fund’s average daily net assets. The Adviser charges the AlphaTrak 500 Fund a basic fee of 0.35% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The basic fee may be adjusted upward or downward (by up to 0.35% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the relevant three-month performance period), depending on whether, and to what extent, the investment performance of the AlphaTrak 500 Fund before management fees, for the relevant performance period, exceeds or is exceeded by, the performance of the S&P 500 Index, plus an annualized margin of 1.00% over the same period. Under this agreement, the basic fee was increased by 0.20% resulting in $14,363 total management fees for the period ended September 30, 2011. The Adviser charges the Strategic Income Fund a basic fee of 1.20% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The basic fee may be adjusted upward or downward (by up to 0.70% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the relevant twelve month performance period), depending on whether, and to what extent, the investment performance of the Strategic Income Fund, for the relevant performance period, exceeds or is exceeded by, the performance of the Merrill Lynch 3 Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index, plus 2.00% over the same period. Under this agreement, the basic fee was increased by 0.01% resulting in $2,216,545 of total management fees for the period ended September 30, 2011.

 

Semi-Annual Report September 2011 / 135


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

The Adviser has agreed in an operating expenses agreement with the Trust to limit each Fund’s expenses as described in the table below. The operating expenses agreement has a one-year term, renewable at the end of each fiscal year. Each Fund has agreed to reimburse the Adviser, for a period of up to three years, for any such payments to the extent that the Fund’s operating expenses are otherwise below its expense cap (excluding the AlphaTrak 500 Fund and the Strategic Income Fund, which shall reimburse the Adviser to the extent that the Fund’s other expenses are below an agreed-upon cap). The Adviser’s obligation will not be recorded as a liability on the books of the applicable Fund to the extent that the total operating expenses (other expenses with respect to the AlphaTrak 500 Fund and the Strategic Income Fund) of the Fund are at or above the expense cap. However, if the total operating expenses (other expenses with respect to the AlphaTrak 500 Fund and the Strategic Income Fund) of a Fund fall below the expense cap, the reimbursement to the Adviser (up to the cap) will be accrued by the Fund as a liability if the Adviser seeks to recoup those amounts and the independent trustees have approved that reimbursement. The Adviser may not request or receive reimbursement from a Fund for prior reductions or reimbursements before the payment of a Fund’s operating expenses for the year.

For the six months ended September 30, 2011, the Adviser recouped $182,867 from Class M, $76,501 from Class I and $191 from the Administrative Class of the Low Duration Bond Fund.

Certain officers and trustees of the Funds are also officers and directors of the Adviser. Such officers and trustees serve without direct compensation from the Funds. Each of the independent trustees receives an annual retainer of $20,000 and $6,250 for each meeting of the Board attended. The Chairman of the Board receives an annual retainer of $35,000. TheTrust has an unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) for certain eligible Trustees. The Plan allows Trustees to defer some or all of their annual trustees’ fees otherwise payable by the Trust for a minimum of three years. The fees deferred are posted to a bookkeeping account maintained by the Trust. The various series of the Trust will use the returns on those Funds selected by the Trustee to determine the income, gains and losses to allocate to the account. At the time for commencing distributions from a Trustee’s deferral account, which is no later than when the Trustee ceases to be a member of the Board, deferred fees will be paid out in a single sum in cash or a maximum of ten annual installments. The expenses related to the annual retainer, meeting fees, and/or any fluctuation in the selected Funds under the Plan are recorded in Trustees’ fees and expenses on the Statements of Operations.

SHARE MARKETING (12b-1) PLAN AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICING PLAN

The Trust has a Share Marketing Plan (or the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act with respect to Class M shares of the Ultra Short Bond Fund, the Low Duration Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Total Return Bond Fund, the High Yield Bond Fund, the Strategic Income, the AlphaTrak 500 Fund and the Administrative Class shares of the Low Duration Bond Fund and Total

Return Bond Fund. The Total Return Bond Fund and Low Duration Bond Fund began accruing for Rule 12b-1 expenses on April 1, 2000 for the Class M shares. The Low Duration Bond Fund and Total Return Bond Funds’ Administrative Class shares began accruing 12b-1 on September 23, 2009 and December 21, 2009, respectively. The High Yield Bond Fund began accruing for Rule 12b-1 expenses on October 2, 2002. The Ultra Short Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, and the Strategic Income Fund began accruing for Rule 12b-1 expenses on July 2, 2003. Under the Plan, the Trust pays BNY Mellon Distributors Inc., as the Trust’s distribution coordinator, an annual fee up to 0.25% of each Fund’s aggregate average daily net assets to reimburse expenses in connection with the promotion and distribution of shares of the respective Fund. The Adviser has undertaken to limit the Rule 12b-1 expenses to 0.16% for the Ultra Short Bond Fund, 0.19% for the Low Duration Bond Fund, and 0.21% for the Intermediate Bond Fund and the Total Return Bond Fund, for the period ended September 30, 2011. The AlphaTrak 500 Fund is currently not incurring Rule 12b-1 fees.

The Funds’ Board of Trustees have adopted a Shareholder Servicing Plan that allows each Fund to pay to broker-dealers and other financial intermediaries a fee for shareholder services provided to Fund shareholders who invest in the Administrative Class shares of a Fund through the intermediary. The fee is payable under the Plan at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the particular Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to the Administrative Share class but the Adviser has undertaken to limit these expenses for the current fiscal year to 0.20% of the Fund’s average daily net assets invested through the intermediary.

10. COMMITTED LINE OF CREDIT

The Funds have entered into a $200,000,000 committed revolving line of credit agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Bank”) for temporary borrowing purpose. The interest rate on borrowing is higher of the Federal Funds rate or the Overnight LIBOR rate, plus 1.25%. There were no borrowings from the line of credit during the period ended September 30, 2011. The Funds pay the Bank a commitment fee equal to 0.10% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount up to a maximum of $200,000 annually. The commitment fees incurred by the Funds are presented in the Statement of Operations. The commitment fees are allocated to each applicable portfolio in proportion to its relative average daily net assets and the interest expenses are charged directly to the applicable portfolio.

11. INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Funds’ organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide general indemnification. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve further claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

Approval of Investment Management Agreement by Trustees (Unaudited)

The Adviser provides investment advisory services to each Fund under an Investment Management Agreement dated March 31, 2010 (the “Agreement”) between the Trust and the Adviser. The Agreement was initially approved by the shareholders of each Fund.

Factors Considered by the Trustees in Connection with Recent Approval of Prior Agreement

On June 6, 2011, the Board approved the renewal of the Agreement for an additional one-year term from August 1, 2011 though July 31, 2012. The renewal of the Agreement was approved by the Board (including a majority of the Independent Trustees) upon the recommendation of the Independent Trustees. The Independent Trustees met separately in executive session to discuss and review the information that had been presented for their consideration prior to the Board’s vote to renew the Agreement. The information, material facts, and conclusions that formed the basis for their recommendation and the Board’s subsequent approval are described below.

1. Information received

Materials reviewed - During the course of each year, the Independent Trustees receive a wide variety of materials relating to the services provided by the Adviser, including reports on each Fund’s investment results, portfolio composition, portfolio trading practices, shareholder services, and other information relating to the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Adviser to the Funds. In addition, the Board reviewed supplementary information that included extensive materials regarding each Fund’s investment results, independently prepared advisory fee and expense comparisons to other mutual funds, advisory fee comparisons to advisory fees charged by the Adviser to its institutional clients, financial and profitability information regarding the Adviser, descriptions of various functions such as compliance monitoring and portfolio trading practices, and information about the personnel providing investment management services to each Fund.

Review process - The Independent Trustees reviewed advice regarding legal and industry standards provided by legal counsel to the Trust, which is not independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees discussed the renewal of the Agreement with the Adviser’s representatives and in a private session at which no representatives of the Adviser were present. In deciding to recommend the renewal of the prior Agreement with respect to each Fund, the Independent Trustees did not identify any single or particular piece of information that, in isolation, was the controlling factor. Each Independent Trustee may also have weighed factors differently. This summary describes the most important, but not all, of the factors considered by the Board.

2. Nature, extent, and quality of services

The Board considered the depth and quality of theAdviser’s investment management process, including its research and intellectual capabilities; the experience, capability, and integrity of its senior management and other personnel; the relatively low turnover rates of its key personnel; the overall resources of its organization; and the ability of its organizational structure to address the growth in assets and products under its management. The Board also considered that the Adviser made available to its investment professionals a variety of resources and systems relating to investment management, compliance, trading, results, and portfolio accounting. They noted the substantial additional resources made available by the parent company of the Adviser, the TCW Group, Inc. They further noted the high level of communication between the Adviser and the Board.

The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Adviser are of a high quality and have benefited and will continue to benefit the Funds and their shareholders.

3. Investment results

The Board considered the investment results of each Fund in light of its investment objective. They compared each Fund’s total returns with the total returns of other mutual funds in peer group reports prepared by Lipper, an independent data provider, with respect to various periods. In reviewing each Fund’s relative performance, the Board took into account any unique characteristics and its asset size, diversification, and range of investments.

The Board noted that each Fund’s performance was acceptable over the relevant periods and in some cases very favorable, particularly from a longer-term perspective, which the Board believes is the most relevant. The Board noted that even where past difficult years such as 2008 had tempered intermediate-term performance, more recent trends were very encouraging and favorable. The Board concluded that the Adviser was implementing each Fund’s investment objective and the Adviser’s record in managing the Funds indicates that its continued management should benefit each Fund and its shareholders.

 

Semi-Annual Report September 2011 / 143


Approval of Investment Management Agreement by Trustees (Unaudited) (Concluded)

4. Advisory fees and total expenses

The Board compared the advisory fees and total expenses of each Fund (each as a percentage of average net assets) with the median fee and expense levels of all other mutual funds in the relevant Lipper peer groups. These comparisons assisted the Board by providing a reasonable statistical measure to assess each Fund’s fees relative to its relevant peers. The Board observed that each Fund’s advisory fee was below the average of the peer group funds on a current basis with the exception of the Strategic Income Fund and the AlphaTrak 500 Fund. The Board discussed why the Lipper peer group was not a suitable comparison for the Strategic Income Fund and why that Fund should instead be compared to private absolute value funds, which the Adviser views as that Fund’s closest relevant comparison and to which it compares very favorably. The Board further noted that the AlphaTrak 500 Fund and Strategic Income Fund both employ a fulcrum fee that adjusts upward from a basic fee only if the Fund enjoys favorable performance against its specified benchmark (and adjusts downward in the case of unfavorable relative performance). Therefore, relatively higher fees and expenses would only occur for those two Funds where there also has been relatively strong performance. The Board further noted the relevant contractual expense limitations that the Adviser has agreed to with respect to each Fund and the fact that the Adviser historically has absorbed any expenses in excess of these limits. The Board concluded that the relatively low level of the fees charged by the Adviser will benefit each Fund and its shareholders.

The Board also reviewed information regarding the advisory fees paid by institutional clients of the Adviser with similar investment mandates. They concluded that although the fees paid by those clients generally were lower than those paid by the Funds, the differences appropriately reflected the Adviser’s significantly greater responsibilities and expenses with respect to the Funds, including the costs of complying with the more comprehensive regulatory regime applicable to mutual funds.

5. The Adviser’s costs, level of profits, and economies of scale

The Independent Trustees reviewed information regarding the Adviser’s costs of providing services to the Funds, as well as the resulting level of profits to the Adviser. They reviewed the Adviser’s stated assumptions and methods of allocating certain costs, such as personnel costs, which constitute the Adviser’s largest operating cost. The Independent Trustees recognized that the Adviser should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services it provides to each Fund. Based on their review, the Independent Trustees concluded that they were satisfied that the Adviser’s level of profitability from its relationship with each Fund was not unreasonable or excessive.

The Independent Trustees considered the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether the advisory fees reflect those economies of scale. They realized that the advisory fees for the Funds do not have breakpoints, which would result in lower advisory fee rates as the Funds grow larger. They also accepted the Adviser’s assertion, based on a review of the Lipper information, that the advisory fees compare favorably to peer group fees and expenses. The Board also recognized the benefits to the Funds of the Adviser’s past investment in the Funds’ operations (through some past subsidies of the Funds’ operating expenses when they were newer and smaller) and its commitment to maintain reasonable overall operating expenses for each Fund. The Board also recognized that the Funds benefit from receiving investment advice from an organization with other types of advisory clients rather than strictly mutual funds.

6. Ancillary benefits

The Board considered other actual and potential financial benefits to the Adviser in concluding that the contractual advisory fees are reasonable for the Funds. In particular, they noted that the Adviser does not have any affiliates that directly benefit from the Adviser’s relationship to the Funds.

7. Conclusions

Based on their overall review, including their consideration of each of the factors referred to above (and others), the Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the Agreement is fair and reasonable to each Fund and its shareholders, that the Fund’s shareholders received reasonable value in return for the advisory fees and other amounts paid to the Adviser by each Fund, and that the renewal of the Agreement was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.
