A Note From Our Chairman

 

 

Tim Buckley

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

 

 

 

 

Dear Shareholder,

 

Over the years, I’ve found that prudent investors exhibit a common trait: discipline. No matter how the markets move or what new investing fad hits the headlines, those who stay focused on their goals and tune out the noise are set up for long-term success.

 

The prime gateway to investing is saving, and you don’t usually become a saver without a healthy dose of discipline. Savers make the decision to sock away part of their income, which means spending less and delaying gratification, no matter how difficult that may be.

 

Of course, disciplined investing extends beyond diligent saving. The financial markets, in the short term especially, are unpredictable; I have yet to meet the investor who can time them perfectly. It takes discipline to resist the urge to go all-in when markets are frothy or to retreat when things look bleak.

 

Staying put with your investments is one strategy for handling volatility. Another, rebalancing, requires even more discipline because it means steering your money away from strong performers and toward poorer performers.

 

Patience—a form of discipline—is also the friend of long-term investors. Higher returns are the potential reward for weathering the market’s turbulence and uncertainty.

 

It’s important to be prepared for that turbulence, whenever it appears. Don’t panic. Don’t chase returns or look for answers outside the asset classes you trust. And be sure to rebalance periodically, even when there’s turmoil.

 

Whether you’re a master of self-control, get a boost from technology, or work with a professional advisor, know that discipline is necessary to get the most out of your investment portfolio. And know that Vanguard is with you for the entire ride.

 

Thank you for your continued loyalty.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Mortimer J. Buckley

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

 

 

·   For the 12 months ended January 31, 2019, the returns of the funds in this report ranged from 2.05% for Vanguard Long-Term Treasury Fund to 3.20% for Vanguard Intermediate-Term Treasury Fund. (Returns cited are for Investor Shares.) Each fund underperformed its benchmark index.

 

·   The U.S. Treasury yield curve flattened over the period. Federal Reserve rate hikes drove short-term yields higher, but longer-term yields moved up less or even fell as the outlook for growth and inflation dimmed.

 

·   In the Treasury funds and Vanguard Short-Term Federal Fund, duration positioning and out-of-benchmark positions in mortgage-backed securities hurt relative performance. In the Treasury funds, security selection and some tactical opportunities added value, while allocations to Treasury inflation-protected securities detracted.

Advisors’ Report

 

 

 

For the Short-, Intermediate-, and Long-Term Treasury Funds and the Short-Term Federal Fund

 

Growth scares, trade tensions, and monetary tightening made the 12 months ended January 31, 2019, a challenging period for the U.S. bond market. The returns of the four U.S. Government Bond Funds managed by Vanguard’s Fixed Income Group ranged from 2.05% for Vanguard Long-Term Treasury Fund to 3.20% for Vanguard Intermediate-Term Treasury Fund. (The returns and yields cited in this report are for Investor Shares.) Each fund underperformed its benchmark index.

 

The funds’ 30-day SEC yields ranged from 2.39% to 2.84% on January 31, 2019. Each yield was higher year over year; that of the Vanguard Short-Term Federal Fund rose the most, climbing 63 basis points, while that of the Long-Term Treasury Fund rose the least, edging up 16 basis points. (A basis point is one-hundredth of a percentage point.)

 

Investment environment

 

Macroeconomic fundamentals were robust throughout much of the 12 months. Business confidence held up, even in the face of trade uncertainties, and consumer spending was supported by solid expansion in the job market.

 

Unemployment hit an almost 50-year low toward the end of 2018, finishing the funds’ fiscal year at 4.0%. The tax cuts enacted in late 2017 and the approval in March 2018 to increase federal government spending added to optimism about growth, which remained above its long-term potential in 2018. On the inflation front, price increases moved toward the Federal Reserve’s target of 2%.

 

The Federal Reserve, acknowledging the health of the economy, moved further down the path toward monetary policy normalization. It raised the federal funds target rate four times during the period, bringing it up to a range of 2.25%–2.5%, but signaled it would be patient in making further hikes in light of global economic

and financial developments and muted inflationary pressures. The Fed also continued shrinking the $4.5 trillion balance sheet it had amassed as part of the stimulus provided in the wake of the 2007–2009 financial crisis.

 

The direction of monetary policy, along with concerns about trade tensions with China and economic growth in Europe, led to fears of a global economic slowdown toward the end of 2018. As a result, the market began to price in a higher probability of a recession. The adjustment had a disproportionate impact on those parts of the U.S. credit market—among them, highly leveraged corporates—that are more sensitive to cyclical forces.

 

At the end of January, as the Fed signaled that it might slow the pace of further rate hikes in 2019, credit markets became more optimistic. Spreads slowly began to tighten; liquidity, which had fallen throughout much of the fiscal year, rebounded.

 

The Treasury yield curve flattened over the 12 months. Fed rate hikes drove the yield of the 2-year Treasury note up 32 basis points, to 2.46%.

 

Demand for longer-term bonds was supported at times by escalating trade tensions, political uncertainty in Europe, and geopolitical flare-ups. The softening in the outlook for growth and inflation, however, led yields on these securities to end the period a little lower than where they started. The yield of the bellwether 10-year Treasury note finished the period down 8 basis points at 2.63%.

 

Management of the funds

 

Overall, we had some success with curve positioning in Treasuries and in identifying some relative value opportunities. Our tactical plays with cash and futures contracts, for example, worked out well.

 

Each fund has a duration that is shorter than that of its benchmark. (Duration is a measure of a portfolio’s price sensitivity to changes in interest rates.) This positioning detracted from relative performance during the period, especially for the Intermediate-Term Fund.

 

We added Treasury inflation-protected securities (TIPS) to the funds early on in the fiscal year, when market expectations for medium-term inflation appeared low. The out-of-benchmark allocations ended up hurting relative performance toward the end of 2018, however, as the outlook for growth cooled.

 

An allocation to mortgage-backed securities also detracted from relative performance.

 

Agency debt, which was overweighted in the Federal Fund and an out-of-benchmark allocation in the three Treasury Funds, also held back returns.

Outlook

 

We expect U.S. economic growth to slow toward a more sustainable level of around 2% in 2019 as fiscal and monetary policy support fade and the global economy decelerates. An upswing in inflation is unlikely, as neither commodity prices nor wage increases appear likely to stoke inflationary pressures. U.S. core inflation is likely to remain near the Fed’s target of 2% and could weaken a few tenths of a percent by the end of the year as the economy shifts into a lower gear.

 

The Federal Open Market Committee recently signaled its intention to be more patient going forward in adjusting monetary policy. After raising its target rate almost every quarter over the past two years and shedding more than $400 billion in Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities from its balance sheet, the central bank may be reaching the end of this interest rate-tightening cycle; given the concerns about global economic and financial developments and muted inflationary pressures, the Fed may hike its target rate just once in 2019.

 

We are likely to see bouts of volatility related to shifting market expectations regarding inflation and interest rates. Signs of slowing growth, especially relating to the United States and China, could also trigger volatility, as could an intensification of trade disputes, flare-ups in geopolitical tensions, and missteps by central banks.

 

Whatever the markets may bring, our experienced team of portfolio managers, credit analysts, and traders will continue to seek out opportunities to add to the funds’ performance.

For the GNMA Fund

 

For the 12 months ended January 31, 2019, Investor Shares of Vanguard GNMA Fund returned 2.85%, and Admiral Shares returned 2.95%. The fund underperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. GNMA Bond Index, which returned 2.97%.

 

Investment environment

 

U.S. fixed income markets largely generated positive total returns during the period, as coupon return helped offset the impact of spread widening across many of the credit sectors. Geopolitical uncertainty remained elevated throughout the period, which was marked by U.S.-China trade tensions, political concerns in Europe (Brexit; the Italian budget plan), and, toward the end of the period, the U.S. government shutdown.

Global monetary policy continued along a less accommodative path. The Federal Reserve hiked rates four times over the 12 months. In January, however, they shifted to a dovish policy stance, spurred by the rapid tightening of financial conditions, weaker global growth, and some loss of domestic growth momentum—all of which played out against a backdrop of tame inflation. The European Central Bank concluded its asset purchase program but announced it would continue reinvestments for an extended period after the first rate hike, slated for the second half of 2019. The Bank of England hiked rates once, then kept them on hold as the United Kingdom continued to negotiate terms of its exit from the European Union.

 

Early in the period, sovereign yields generally moved higher, driven by continued global growth momentum and rising inflation expectations. Toward the end of 2018, however, sovereign yields declined across most markets amid a spike in equity market volatility and increasing concerns about slowing global growth. The prospect of fewer Fed rate hikes in 2019 amid a deteriorating global economic outlook helped pushed down U.S. yields late in the fund’s fiscal year. The yield curve flattened, as short-term yields rose while longer-term yields stayed much the same.

 

Absolute returns were mostly positive across the securitized and corporate credit sectors. On an excess return basis, most major spread sectors posted negative returns over the period, with greater underperformance seen in lower-rated sectors.

 

The agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) market returned 3.00% as measured by the Barclays MBS Fixed Rate Index, underperforming duration-equivalent Treasuries by 31 basis points (as measured by Wellington). Bouts of heightened market volatility across global financial markets— early in the period and then again at the end of 2018—drove credit spreads wider, dragging agency MBS spreads along with them.

 

Still, agency MBS fared much better than investment-grade corporates in this environment. In January, after the Fed’s dovish shift, the MBS sector recouped some of its losses, although index spreads ended the period seven basis points wider.

 

Higher-coupon conventionals (FNMA, FHLMC) lagged the most, especially at the end of 2018, when the rally in interest rates sparked prepayment concerns. Higher-coupon GNMAs suffered less, however, aided by slowing prepayment expectations that resulted from GNMA’s efforts to reign in the aggressive refinancing of mortgage loans guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs.

 

Given their shorter spread durations in a weak environment, 15-year MBS outperformed their 30-year counterparts. GNMAs returned 2.97% as measured by the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. GNMA Bond Index. They underperformed duration-equivalent Treasuries by 31 basis points (as measured by Wellington) and were relatively in line with conventional mortgages.

The fund’s successes

 

On average, the fund had an underweight allocation to GNMAs, instead favoring agency collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), Fannie Mae multifamily Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (DUS) bonds, and agency commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS). Exposure to agency CMOs helped the fund, as they outperformed both GNMAs and U.S. Treasuries on an excess return basis. The fund’s tactical duration and yield curve positioning also contributed modestly to relative performance.

 

The fund’s shortfalls

Selection within high-coupon 30-year GNMAs detracted from relative results, as did exposure to Fannie Mae DUS bonds, which underperformed GNMAs and U.S. Treasuries on an excess return basis. An allocation to U.S. Treasury inflation protected securities (TIPS) also detracted from relative performance, particularly later in the period, when inflation expectations fell.

 

The fund’s positioning

We maintain an underweight to agency MBS pass-throughs, focused on replacing their income with less prepayment sensitive sectors of the agency MBS market. We continue to have a bias toward assets that can generate income and provide more stable cash flows, such as Fannie Mae DUS bonds, agency CMOs, and agency CMBS.

 

In our view, valuations in MBS are fair to slightly cheap. Mortgages have become more attractive as spreads relative to Treasuries are far less tight than they were in 2017. Current coupon spreads are at levels consistent with more stable, pre-crisis periods, but with lower prepayment risk. Agency MBS should continue to attract interest as a liquid alternative to global sovereigns and higher-quality assets. It is true that a deteriorating global cycle and a more prolonged downturn in animal spirits could weigh on risk assets, including agency MBS; however, even in such a scenario, we would still expect these securities to outperform competing spread sectors.

 

MBS fundamentals have generally improved, from both an extension and a prepayment risk perspective. Extension risk has diminished with the increase in rates, as mortgage durations are already toward the long end of their historic range and a substantial portion of the market has a below-market rate. And although standardized underwriting and originator concentration adds to prepayment sensitivity on newly originated mortgages, refinancing remains a challenge. As a result, prepayment risk remains much lower than in any pre-crisis period, with peak prepayment speeds on in-the-money loans far below those seen during refinancing booms.

 

7


 

From a technical perspective, the Fed’s balance sheet normalization process is expected to bring predictable extra supply to the market. Given the out-of-the-money status of the majority of the MBS market, paydowns should remain below the monthly $20 billion cap. Agency MBS spreads are likely to be supported by growth in the Federal budget deficit as the supply of Treasuries is set to rise relative to agency MBS. We expect that MBS will continue to benefit from lower leverage in the system and a more stable buyer base of long-term investors who do not hedge.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

 

 

 

As a shareholder of the 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 costs (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.

 

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

 

·   Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the fund’s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, 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 under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period.”

 

·   Based on hypothetical 5% yearly 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 a yearly 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. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% 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.

 

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

 

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

 

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The funds’ annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the Short-Term Treasury Fund, 0.20% for Investor Shares and 0.10% for Admiral Shares; for the Short-Term Federal Fund, 0.20% for Investor Shares and 0.10% for Admiral Shares; for the Intermediate-Term Treasury Fund, 0.20% for Investor Shares and 0.10% for Admiral Shares; for the GNMA Fund, 0.21% for Investor Shares and 0.11% for Admiral Shares; and for the Long-Term Treasury Fund, 0.20% for Investor Shares and 0.10% for Admiral Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

Short-Term Treasury Fund

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

Vanguard Short-Term Treasury Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value.

 

2. Futures and Options: The fund uses futures contracts and options on futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. The primary risk associated with purchasing options is that interest rates move in such a way that the option is out-of-the-money, the position is worthless at expiration, and the fund loses the premium paid. The primary risk associated with writing options is that interest rates move in such a way that the option is in-the-money, the counterparty exercises the option, and the fund loses an amount equal to the market value of the option written less the premium received. Counterparty risk involving futures and exchange-traded options is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures and options on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 19% and 2% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

25


 

Short-Term Treasury Fund

 

 

 

 

Options on futures contracts are also valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The premium paid for a purchased option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option purchased. The premium received for a written option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset with an equal liability that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option written. Fluctuations in the value of the options are recorded in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until expired, closed, or exercised, at which time realized gains (losses) are recognized.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average value of investments in options purchased and options written each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average market values at each quarter-end during the period.

 

3. To Be Announced (TBA) Transactions: A TBA transaction is an agreement to buy or sell mortgage-backed securities with agreed-upon characteristics (face amount, coupon, maturity) for settlement at a future date. The fund may be a seller of TBA transactions to reduce its exposure to the mortgage-backed securities market or in order to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed-delivery arrangements. When the fund is a buyer of TBA transactions, it maintains cash or short-term investments in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price at the settlement date of the TBA transaction. The primary risk associated with TBA transactions is that a counterparty may default on its obligations. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by, among other things, performing a credit analysis of counterparties, allocating transactions among numerous counterparties, and monitoring its exposure to each counterparty. The fund may also enter into a Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement (MSFTA) with certain counterparties and require them to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Under an MSFTA, upon a counterparty default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any TBA transactions with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements.

 

At January 31, 2019, counterparties had deposited in segregated accounts securities with a value of $20,000 and cash with a value of $288,000 in connection with TBA transactions. After January 31, 2019, the counterparties posted additional cash collateral with a value of $350,000 in connection with TBA transactions.

 

4. Mortgage Dollar Rolls: The fund enters into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions, in which the fund sells mortgage-backed securities to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to purchase similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The proceeds of the securities sold in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are typically invested in high-quality short-term fixed income securities. The fund forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities sold, and is compensated by interest earned on the proceeds of the sale and by a lower price on the securities to be repurchased. The fund has also entered into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions in which the fund buys mortgage-backed securities from a dealer pursuant to a TBA transaction and simultaneously agrees to sell similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The securities bought in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are used to cover an open TBA sell position. The fund continues to earn interest on mortgage-backed security pools already held and receives a lower price on the securities to be sold in the future. The fund accounts for mortgage-dollar-roll transactions as purchases and sales; as such, these

Short-Term Treasury Fund

 

 

 

 

transactions may increase the fund’s portfolio turnover rate. Amounts to be received or paid in connection with open mortgage dollar rolls are included in Receivables for Investment Securities Sold or Payables for Investment Securities Purchased in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

5. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

6. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

7. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

8. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses), and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $418,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.17% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

C.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of January 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

D.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets, if any, are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.

 

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles; the realization of

Performance Summary

 

 

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

·      See Note A in Notes to Financial Statements.

 

1     Securities with a value of $197,000 have been segregated as collateral for certain open To Be Announced (TBA) transactions.

 

2     Securities with a value of $3,991,000 have been segregated as initial margin for open futures contracts.

 

3     U.S. government-guaranteed.

 

4     The issuer was placed under federal conservatorship in September 2008; since that time, its daily operations have been managed by the Federal Housing Finance Agency and it receives capital from the U.S. Treasury, as needed to maintain a positive net worth, in exchange for senior preferred stock.

 

5     The issuer operates under a congressional charter; its securities are generally neither guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury nor backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.

 

6     The average or expected maturity is shorter than the final maturity shown because of the possibility of interim principal payments and prepayments or the possibility of the issue being called.

 

7     Includes securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis for which the fund has not taken delivery as of January 31, 2019.

 

8     Adjustable-rate security based upon one-year Constant Maturity Treasury yield plus spread.

 

9     Adjustable-rate security based upon 1-month USD LIBOR plus spread.

 

10     Affiliated money market fund available only to Vanguard funds and certain trusts and accounts managed by Vanguard. Rate shown is the 7-day yield.

 

11     Includes premium received of $379,000.

Short-Term Federal Fund

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

Vanguard Short-Term Federal Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value.

 

2. Futures and Options: The fund uses futures contracts and options on futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. The primary risk associated with purchasing options is that interest rates move in such a way that the option is out-of-the-money, the position is worthless at expiration, and the fund loses the premium paid. The primary risk associated with writing options is that interest rates move in such a way that the option is in-the-money, the counterparty exercises the option, and the fund loses an amount equal to the market value of the option written less the premium received. Counterparty risk involving futures and exchange-traded options is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures and options on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 18% and 8% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

Short-Term Federal Fund

 

 

 

 

Options on futures contracts are also valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The premium paid for a purchased option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option purchased. The premium received for a written option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset with an equal liability that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option written. Fluctuations in the value of the options are recorded in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until expired, closed, or exercised, at which time realized gains (losses) are recognized.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average value of investments options purchased and options written each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average market values at each quarter-end during the period.

 

3. To Be Announced (TBA) Transactions: A TBA transaction is an agreement to buy or sell mortgage-backed securities with agreed-upon characteristics (face amount, coupon, maturity) for settlement at a future date. The fund may be a seller of TBA transactions to reduce its exposure to the mortgage-backed securities market or in order to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed-delivery arrangements. When the fund is a buyer of TBA transactions, it maintains cash or short-term investments in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price at the settlement date of the TBA transaction. The primary risk associated with TBA transactions is that a counterparty may default on its obligations. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by, among other things, performing a credit analysis of counterparties, allocating transactions among numerous counterparties, and monitoring its exposure to each counterparty. The fund may also enter into a Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement (MSFTA) with certain counterparties and require them to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Under an MSFTA, upon a counterparty default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any TBA transactions with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements.

 

At January 31, 2019, counterparties had deposited in segregated accounts securities with a value of $480,000 and cash with a value of $1,050,000 in connection with TBA transactions. After January 31, 2019, counterparties posted additional securities collateral with a value of $294,000 and cash collateral with a value of $290,000 in connection with TBA transactions.

 

4. Mortgage Dollar Rolls: The fund enters into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions, in which the fund sells mortgage-backed securities to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to purchase similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The proceeds of the securities sold in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are typically invested in high-quality short-term fixed income securities. The fund forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities sold, and is compensated by interest earned on the proceeds of the sale and by a lower price on the securities to be repurchased. The fund has also entered into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions in which the fund buys mortgage-backed securities from a dealer pursuant to a TBA transaction and simultaneously agrees to sell similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The securities bought in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are used to cover an open TBA sell position. The fund continues to earn interest on mortgage-backed security pools already held and receives a lower price on the securities to be sold in the future. The fund accounts for mortgage-dollar-roll transactions as purchases and sales; as

 

46


 

Short-Term Federal Fund

 

 

 

 

such, these transactions may increase the fund’s portfolio turnover rate. Amounts to be received or paid in connection with open mortgage dollar rolls are included in Receivables for Investment Securities Sold or Payables for Investment Securities Purchased in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

5. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

6. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

7. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

8. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses), and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

 

47


 

Short-Term Federal Fund

 

 

 

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $254,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.10% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

C.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of January 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

D.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets, if any, are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.

 

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles, the realization of unrealized gains or losses on certain futures contracts and options; and payables for distributions.

Performance Summary

 

 

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

Intermediate-Term Treasury Fund

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

Vanguard Intermediate-Term Treasury Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A.      The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value.

 

2. Futures and Options: The fund uses futures contracts and options on futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. The primary risk associated with purchasing options is that interest rates move in such a way that the option is out-of-the-money, the position is worthless at expiration, and the fund loses the premium paid. The primary risk associated with writing options is that interest rates move in such a way that the option is in-the-money, the counterparty exercises the option, and the fund loses an amount equal to the market value of the option written less the premium received. Counterparty risk involving futures and exchange-traded options is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures and options on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 8% and 5% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

Options on futures contracts are also valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The premium paid for a purchased option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option purchased. The premium received for a written option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset with an equal liability that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option written. Fluctuations in the value of the options are recorded in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until expired, closed, or exercised, at which time realized gains (losses) are recognized.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average value of investments in options purchased and options written each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average market values at each quarter-end during the period.

 

3. To Be Announced (TBA) Transactions: A TBA transaction is an agreement to buy or sell mortgage-backed securities with agreed-upon characteristics (face amount, coupon, maturity) for settlement at a future date. The fund may be a seller of TBA transactions to reduce its exposure to the mortgage-backed securities market or in order to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed-delivery arrangements. When the fund is a buyer of TBA transactions, it maintains cash or short-term investments in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price at the settlement date of the TBA transaction. The primary risk associated with TBA transactions is that a counterparty may default on its obligations. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by, among other things, performing a credit analysis of counterparties, allocating transactions among numerous counterparties, and monitoring its exposure to each counterparty. The fund may also enter into a Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement (MSFTA) with certain counterparties and require them to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Under an MSFTA, upon a counterparty default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any TBA transactions with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements.

 

At January 31, 2019, counterparties had deposited in segregated accounts securities with a value of $20,000 and cash with a value of $233,000 in connection with TBA transactions.

 

4. Mortgage Dollar Rolls: The fund enters into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions, in which the fund sells mortgage-backed securities to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to purchase similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The proceeds of the securities sold in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are typically invested in high-quality short-term fixed income securities. The fund forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities sold, and is compensated by interest earned on the proceeds of the sale and by a lower price on the securities to be repurchased. The fund has also entered into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions in which the fund buys mortgage-backed securities from a dealer pursuant to a TBA transaction and simultaneously agrees to sell similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The securities bought in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are used to cover an open TBA sell position. The fund continues to earn interest on mortgage-backed security pools already held and receives a lower price on the securities to be sold in the future. The fund accounts for mortgage-dollar-roll transactions as purchases and sales; as such, these transactions may increase the fund’s portfolio turnover rate. Amounts to be received or paid in connection with open mortgage dollar rolls are included in Receivables for Investment Securities Sold or Payables for Investment Securities Purchased in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

5. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

6. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

7. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

8. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.      In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

Intermediate-Term Treasury Fund

 

 

 

 

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $323,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.13% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

C.      Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of January 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

D.      Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets, if any, are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.

 

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles; the realization of unrealized gains or losses on certain futures contracts and options; and payables for distributions.

Performance Summary

 

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

GNMA Fund

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

Vanguard GNMA Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value.

 

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 6% and less than 1% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

3. Swap Contracts: The fund enters into interest rate swap transactions to adjust the fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates and maintain the ability to generate income at prevailing market rates. Under the terms of the swaps, one party pays the other an amount that is a fixed percentage rate applied to a notional amount. In return, the counterparty agrees to pay a floating rate, which is reset periodically based on short-term interest rates, applied to the same notional amount.

 

83


 

GNMA Fund

 

 

 

 

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded as an asset (liability) and as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the seller of credit protection is required to take delivery (or, in a cash settled swap, pay the settlement amount determined) upon occurrence of a credit event, periodic payments are made, or the swap terminates, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded. The net premium to be received or paid by the fund under swap contracts is accrued daily and recorded as realized gain (loss) over the life of the contract.

 

A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

The fund enters into centrally cleared interest rate swaps to achieve the same objectives specified with respect to the equivalent over-the-counter swaps but with less counterparty risk because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker or executing broker. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance, and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades with a diverse group of prequalified executing brokers; monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers, executing brokers and clearinghouse; and has entered into agreements with its clearing brokers and executing brokers.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the average amount of investments in interest rate swaps represented 7% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

4. To Be Announced (TBA) Transactions: A TBA transaction is an agreement to buy or sell mortgage-backed securities with agreed-upon characteristics (face amount, coupon, maturity) for settlement at a future date. The fund may be a seller of TBA transactions to reduce its exposure to the mortgage-backed securities market or in order to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed-delivery arrangements. When the fund is a buyer of TBA transactions, it maintains cash or short-term investments in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price at the settlement date of the TBA transaction. The primary risk associated with TBA transactions is that a counterparty may default on its obligations. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by, among other things, performing a

 

84


 

GNMA Fund

 

 

 

 

credit analysis of counterparties, allocating transactions among numerous counterparties, and monitoring its exposure to each counterparty. The fund may also enter into a Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement (MSFTA) with certain counterparties and require them to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Under an MSFTA, upon a counterparty default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any TBA transactions with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements

 

At January 31, 2019, counterparties had deposited in segregated accounts securities with a value of $1,277,000 and cash with a value of $5,910,000 in connection with TBA transactions.

 

5. Mortgage Dollar Rolls: The fund enters into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions, in which the fund sells mortgage-backed securities to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to purchase similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The proceeds of the securities sold in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are typically invested in high-quality short-term fixed income securities. The fund forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities sold, and is compensated by interest earned on the proceeds of the sale and by a lower price on the securities to be repurchased. The fund has also entered into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions in which the fund buys mortgage-backed securities from a dealer pursuant to a TBA transaction and simultaneously agrees to sell similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The securities bought in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are used to cover an open TBA sell position. The fund continues to earn interest on mortgage-backed security pools already held and receives a lower price on the securities to be sold in the future. The fund accounts for mortgage-dollar-roll transactions as purchases and sales; as such, these transactions may increase the fund’s portfolio turnover rate. Amounts to be received or paid in connection with open mortgage dollar rolls are included in Receivables for Investment Securities Sold or Payables for Investment Securities Purchased in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

6. Repurchase Agreements: The fund enters into repurchase agreements with institutional counterparties. Securities pledged as collateral to the fund under repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature, and in the absence of a default, such collateral cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into repurchase agreements only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master repurchase agreements with its counterparties. The master repurchase agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any repurchase agreements with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund. Such action may be subject to legal proceedings, which may delay or limit the disposition of collateral.

 

7. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

85


 

GNMA Fund

 

 

 

 

8. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

9. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

10. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  Wellington Management Company LLP provides investment advisory services to the fund for a fee calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets. For the year ended January 31, 2019, the investment advisory fee represented an effective annual rate of 0.01% of the fund’s average net assets.

 

C.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $1,175,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.47% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

D.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of January 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

E.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for swap agreements were reclassified between the following accounts:

Performance Summary

 

 

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

1   Securities with a value of $1,792,000 have been segregated as initial margin for open futures contracts.

2     The issuer was placed under federal conservatorship in September 2008; since that time, its daily operations have been managed by the Federal Housing Finance Agency and it receives capital from the U.S. Treasury, as needed to maintain a positive net worth, in exchange for senior preferred stock.

3     The average or expected maturity is shorter than the final maturity shown because of the possibility of interim principal payments and prepayments or the possibility of the issue being called.

4     Includes securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis for which the fund has not taken delivery as of January 31, 2019.

5     Adjustable-rate security based upon 1-month USD LIBOR plus spread.

6     Affiliated money market fund available only to Vanguard funds and certain trusts and accounts managed by Vanguard. Rate shown is the 7-day yield.

7     Includes premium received of $270,000.

Long-Term Treasury Fund

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

Vanguard Long-Term Treasury Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value.

 

2. Futures and Options: The fund uses futures contracts and options on futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. The primary risk associated with purchasing options is that interest rates move in such a way that the option is out-of-the-money, the position is worthless at expiration, and the fund loses the premium paid. The primary risk associated with writing options is that interest rates move in such a way that the option is in-the-money, the counterparty exercises the option, and the fund loses an amount equal to the market value of the option written less the premium received. Counterparty risk involving futures and exchange-traded options is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures and options on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 5% and 3% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

Options on futures contracts are also valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The premium paid for a purchased option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option purchased. The premium received for a written option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset with an equal liability that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option written. Fluctuations in the value of the options are recorded in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until expired, closed, or exercised, at which time realized gains (losses) are recognized.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average value of investments in options purchased and options written each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average market values at each quarter-end during the period.

 

3. To Be Announced (TBA) Transactions: A TBA transaction is an agreement to buy or sell mortgage-backed securities with agreed-upon characteristics (face amount, coupon, maturity) for settlement at a future date. The fund may be a seller of TBA transactions to reduce its exposure to the mortgage-backed securities market or in order to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed-delivery arrangements. When the fund is a buyer of TBA transactions, it maintains cash or short-term investments in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price at the settlement date of the TBA transaction. The primary risk associated with TBA transactions is that a counterparty may default on its obligations. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by, among other things, performing a credit analysis of counterparties, allocating transactions among numerous counterparties, and monitoring its exposure to each counterparty. The fund may also enter into a Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement (MSFTA) with certain counterparties and require them to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Under an MSFTA, upon a counterparty default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any TBA transactions with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements.

 

At January 31, 2019, counterparties had deposited in segregated accounts securities with a value of $276,000 and cash with a value of $154,000 in connection with TBA transactions.

 

4. Mortgage Dollar Rolls: The fund enters into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions, in which the fund sells mortgage-backed securities to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to purchase similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The proceeds of the securities sold in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are typically invested in high-quality short-term fixed income securities. The fund forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities sold, and is compensated by interest earned on the proceeds of the sale and by a lower price on the securities to be repurchased. The fund has also entered into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions in which the fund buys mortgage-backed securities from a dealer pursuant to a TBA transaction and simultaneously agrees to sell similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The securities bought in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are used to cover an open TBA sell position. The fund continues to earn interest on mortgage-backed security pools already held and receives a lower price on the securities to be sold in the future. The fund accounts for mortgage-dollar-roll transactions as purchases and sales; as such, these transactions may increase the fund’s portfolio turnover rate. Amounts to be received or paid in connection with open mortgage dollar rolls are included in Receivables for Investment Securities Sold or Payables for Investment Securities Purchased in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

5. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

6. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

7. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

8. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

 

103


 

Long-Term Treasury Fund

 

 

 

 

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $181,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.07% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

C.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of January 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

D.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets, if any, are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.

 

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles;

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Trustees of Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Funds and Shareholders of Vanguard Short-Term Treasury Fund, Vanguard Short-Term Federal Fund, Vanguard Intermediate-Term Treasury Fund, Vanguard GNMA Fund and Vanguard Long-Term Treasury Fund

 

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities and statements of net assets of Vanguard Short-Term Treasury Fund, Vanguard Short-Term Federal Fund, Vanguard Intermediate-Term Treasury Fund, Vanguard GNMA Fund and Vanguard Long-Term Treasury Fund (five of the funds constituting Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Funds, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of January 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended January 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended January 31, 2019, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended January 31, 2019 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of January 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended January 31, 2019 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended January 31, 2019 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinions

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of January 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodians, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

 

 

The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund.

A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 212 Vanguard funds.

 

Information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund appears below. The mailing address of the trustees and officers is P.O. Box 876, Valley Forge, PA 19482.

A Note From Our Chairman

 

 

 

 

 

Tim Buckley

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

 

 

 

 

Dear Shareholder,

 

Over the years, I’ve found that prudent investors exhibit a common trait: discipline. No matter how the markets move or what new investing fad hits the headlines, those who stay focused on their goals and tune out the noise are set up for long-term success.

 

The prime gateway to investing is saving, and you don’t usually become a saver without a healthy dose of discipline. Savers make the decision to sock away part of their income, which means spending less and delaying gratification, no matter how difficult that may be.

 

Of course, disciplined investing extends beyond diligent saving. The financial markets, in the short term especially, are unpredictable; I have yet to meet the investor who can time them perfectly. It takes discipline to resist the urge to go all-in when markets are frothy or to retreat when things look bleak.

 

Staying put with your investments is one strategy for handling volatility. Another, rebalancing, requires even more discipline because it means steering your money away from strong performers and toward poorer performers.

 

Patience—a form of discipline—is also the friend of long-term investors. Higher returns are the potential reward for weathering the market’s turbulence and uncertainty.

 

It’s important to be prepared for that turbulence, whenever it appears. Don’t panic. Don’t chase returns or look for answers outside the asset classes you trust. And be sure to rebalance periodically, even when there’s turmoil.

 

Whether you’re a master of self-control, get a boost from technology, or work with a professional advisor, know that discipline is necessary to get the most out of your investment portfolio. And know that Vanguard is with you for the entire ride.

 

Thank you for your continued loyalty.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Mortimer J. Buckley

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

 

 

·   The fiscal year ended January 31, 2019, was a challenging period for corporate bonds as investors turned more risk averse. Returns of the funds in this report ranged from –1.45% for Investor Shares of Vanguard Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund to 2.41% for Admiral Shares of Vanguard Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund. The funds’ results versus their benchmarks were mixed.

 

·   For Vanguard Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund and the Intermediate-Term Fund, out-of-benchmark positions in asset-backed securities and U.S. Treasuries, a tilt toward higher-quality bonds, and an allocation to emerging-market sovereigns and quasi-sovereigns added value. Security selection and duration hurt the Short-Term Fund.

 

·   For the Long-Term Fund, security selection and allocations to taxable municipal bonds and emerging-market sovereigns and quasi-sovereigns more than offset a drag from an allocation to BBB-rated bonds.

 

·   Security selection in Vanguard High-Yield Corporate Fund was the main detractor from its relative performance for the period.

Advisors’ Report

 

 

Vanguard Fixed Income Group

 

For the Short-, Intermediate-, and Long-Term Investment-Grade Funds

 

Growth scares, trade tensions, and monetary tightening made the 12 months ended January 31, 2019, a challenging period for corporate bonds. Vanguard Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund returned 2.07%, and Vanguard Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund returned 2.31%. (All returns and yields cited are for the funds’ Investor Shares.) Compared with their benchmark indexes, the Short-Term Fund underperformed but the Intermediate-Term Fund outperformed.

 

We also manage about 10% of the assets of Vanguard Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund. The fund returned –1.45%; it held up a little better than its benchmark index.

 

The 30-day SEC yields of the three funds ranged from 3.15% to 4.07% on January 31, which is 46 to 72 basis points higher than where they stood a year earlier. (A basis point is one-hundredth of a percentage point.)

 

Investment environment

 

Macroeconomic fundamentals were robust throughout much of the period. Business confidence held up even in the face of trade uncertainties, and consumer spending was supported by solid expansion in the job market.

 

Unemployment finished at 4.0% after hitting an almost-50-year low near the end of 2018. The tax cuts enacted in late 2017 and approval in March 2018 to increase federal government spending added to optimism about growth, which remained above its long-term potential. On the inflation front, price increases moved toward the Federal Reserve’s target of 2%.

 

Acknowledging the health of the economy, the Fed moved further down the path toward monetary policy normalization. It raised the federal funds target rate four times, up to a range of 2.25%–2.50%, but signaled it would be patient in making further hikes in light of global economic and financial developments and muted inflation pressures.

The Fed also continued shrinking the $4.5 trillion balance sheet it had amassed as part of the monetary stimulus it began providing in the wake of the 2007–2009 financial crisis. After that unprecedented level of stimulus, markets reacted to the quantitative tightening with uncertainty.

 

This unwinding, as well as concerns about trade tensions with China and economic growth in Europe, led to fears of a global economic slowdown. As a result, the market began at the end of last year to price in a higher probability of a recession. That had a disproportionate impact on parts of the U.S. credit market that are more sensitive to cyclical forces, including highly leveraged corporates.

 

As the Fed signaled its plans to potentially slow the pace of further rate hikes in 2019, credit markets became more optimistic. Spreads slowly began to tighten, and liquidity, which had fallen throughout much of the fiscal year, rebounded.

 

Fed action earlier in the period pushed shorter-term yields higher. The yield of the 2-year Treasury note climbed 32 basis points to 2.46%.

 

Demand for longer-term bonds was supported at times by escalating trade tensions, political uncertainty in Europe, and geopolitical flare-ups. However, the outlook for continuing growth and rising inflation expectations led yields on these securities to end not far from where they’d started. The yield of the bellwether 10-year Treasury note finished at 2.63%.

 

Investment-grade corporate bonds returned 0.75%. Corporate fundamentals were strong and earnings robust at the beginning of 2018—the tax cuts helped with that—but valuations were high and technical support weakened. Tax changes led a number of large multinational companies that had been investing overseas money in high-quality corporate bonds to withdraw from the market. With the Fed on a tightening path, rising hedging costs for foreign buyers caused some of them to pull back as well. Uncertainty in the longer-term credit outlook brought further concern.

 

Management of the funds

 

The Short-Term Fund and the Intermediate-Term Fund had exposure for diversification purposes to segments of the bond market that are not part of their benchmarks. This included allocations to asset-backed securities (typically made up of pooled auto loans, credit-card debt, and student loans), which held up well during the downturn at the end of 2018, and Treasuries. Both allocations added to relative returns.

 

The funds have a structural underweight to lower-quality corporate bonds. This positioning helped relative performance as BBB-rated securities underperformed investment-grade corporates as a whole.

 

Security selection in the capital goods segment was disappointing for both funds, but selection in financials gave a solid boost to the Intermediate-Term Fund.

 

For all three funds, our relatively small allocation to high-quality sovereign emerging-market debt added value.

We increased our exposure to these securities when their valuations fell to more attractive levels and were among the first segments to rebound from the market sell-off in late 2018.

 

For the Long-Term Fund, security selection, especially in financials, was positive. An out-of-benchmark allocation to taxable municipal bonds also helped, but BBB-rated bonds detracted.

 

The use of derivatives to hedge portfolio risks is common in these portfolios. The Intermediate-Term Fund’s derivatives position, including both hedges and active positions, had a net positive contribution to performance.

 

Outlook

 

Headwinds for credit are likely to increase later this year.

 

The Fed’s more patient bias regarding further interest rate hikes and the unwinding of the Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities on its balance sheet should provide some support to risk assets. Any ratcheting down of trade tensions would be a positive as well.

 

But the global economy is set to slow. Major economies including China and the euro area are experiencing some deceleration. The U.S. economy is on pace to stay above its long-term potential growth rate thanks to consumer and business spending, a strong labor market, and further support from tax reform and government spending. However, growth is likely to fall toward 2% by the end of this year.

 

Longer-term, we expect structural pressures from an aging population, global sourcing of goods and labor, and technological disruptions to result in moderate growth and inflation.

 

We may see more bouts of volatility related to shifting market expectations regarding inflation and interest rates as well as concerns about how close we may be to the end of the current credit cycle. Other potential triggers include an intensification of trade disputes, flare-ups in geopolitical tensions, and missteps by central banks.

 

Whatever the markets may bring, our experienced team of portfolio managers, credit analysts, and traders will continue to seek opportunities to add to the funds’ performance.

For the Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

Vanguard Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund returned –1.45% for Investor Shares and –1.35% for Admiral Shares for the 12 months ended January 31, 2019. It modestly surpassed the –1.68% return of its benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Long Credit A or Better Bond Index.

The portion of the Long-Term Fund that we manage (the “portfolio”) invests primarily in corporate bonds with 10 to 30 years until maturity. The portfolio’s returns are influenced by the direction of interest rates and by economic conditions that affect the creditworthiness of the bond issuers.

 

Investment environment

 

Over the fiscal year, global fixed income markets generated positive total returns, driven by declining government bond yields and coupon income. Geopolitical uncertainty remained elevated despite some seemingly positive developments, including a temporary trade truce between the United States and China, a vote of confidence for U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May, and a budget compromise between Italy and the European Union.

 

Global monetary policy stayed on a less accommodative path. The Federal Reserve hiked rates four times and projected additional hikes, but it set expectations that the pace of tightening might slow. The European Central Bank concluded its asset purchase program but announced it would continue reinvestments for an extended period after the first rate hike, slated for the second half of 2019.

 

Early in the period, sovereign yields generally moved higher, driven by global growth momentum and rising inflation expectations. However, late in the year they declined in most markets as equity market volatility spiked and concerns about slowing global growth increased. The prospect of fewer Fed rate hikes in 2019 and a deteriorating global economic outlook contributed to a decline in U.S. yields, which finished lower for the year.

 

Absolute returns were positive for most securitized and corporate sectors as coupon income helped to offset spread widening. On an excess-return basis, most major spread sectors posted negative returns, with greater underperformance in the longer-maturity segment.

 

The portfolio’s successes

 

Sector positioning added to relative results, most notably in capital goods and taxable municipal bonds. A modest allocation to structured finance for its diversification benefits and attractive risk/reward profile contributed as well.

 

The portfolio’s shortfalls

 

An overweight to the banking sector and an underweight to energy detracted from relative performance. Security selection in utilities also hurt.

 

Outlook

 

The U.S. economy is on a positive trajectory, which we forecast to grow by 2.0% in 2019. The labor market remains strong, with low unemployment rates. But geopolitical tensions with China, along with slowing Chinese and European economies, introduce risk factors. We see little risk of higher inflation but are monitoring whether trade uncertainties will have an adverse effect.

 

Year-over-year revenue growth for the corporate sector is among the highest levels since the financial crisis, and free

cash flow continues to improve for investment-grade issuers. Tax reform has further boosted profitability, but its positive impact will fade during 2019. Rising wages and input costs are also risks to strong margin growth. We believe that much of the attention being paid to the potential systemic risk created by the growing cohort of BBB-rated issuers is overstated. Many of these issuers are well-capitalized and positioned to service current debt levels.

 

Mergers and acquisitions constituted nearly one-quarter of new issuance in 2018. We anticipate less M&A-related debt issuance in 2019, which should reduce the overall level of investment-grade credit supply. Credit spreads widened substantially during the period, making valuations more attractive. We will look to opportunistically increase positions in selective issuers where we have strong conviction without increasing overall portfolio risk due to simmering macro risks.

For the High-Yield Corporate Fund

 

For the 12 months ended January 31, 2019, the fund returned 1.61% for Investor Shares and 1.71% for Admiral Shares, lagging the 2.05% return of its benchmark index.

 

The investment environment

 

High-yield markets generated positive total returns as a result of declining government bond yields and coupon income. However, credit spreads widened amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainty in Europe and elevated tensions between the U.S. and its trading partners, particularly China. Global monetary policy continued along a less accommodative path.

 

The Federal Reserve hiked rates four times and projected additional hikes, but it set expectations that the pace of tightening might slow. The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield decreased to 2.63% by the end of January 2019 from 2.71% a year earlier. Trade war concerns initially lifted inflation expectations, but the prospect of fewer Fed rate hikes and a deteriorating global economic outlook contributed to a decline in U.S. yields.

 

Corporate credit spreads widened during the fourth quarter after a lack of progress on key political issues in Europe and a sharp sell-off in energy prices, but they rebounded somewhat in January. The spread of the high-yield market widened to 423 basis points over Treasuries as of January 31, 2019, from 319 basis points 12 months earlier. The average price of high-yield bonds decreased $5 to $96.

 

Performance by credit quality varied. The high-yield market generally punished relatively lower-quality bonds during the spike in volatility late in the year. CCC-rated bonds performed worst, returning –0.70%, according to Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Index. BB-rated bonds returned 1.69%, and B-rated bonds returned 2.40%.

We remain positive about high yield because of stable corporate fundamentals, a supportive macroeconomic landscape, and strong demand for yield-producing assets. We expect GDP growth to slow but continue as the impact of fiscal stimulus fades. Valuations appear attractive. The technical backdrop remains balanced despite mutual fund outflows. New issue supply declined in 2018 to its lowest level since 2009, and net new issuance (after accounting for maturities) was negative.

 

Geopolitical events and tighter-than-expected central bank monetary policy are risks. However, we believe spreads offer ample cushion and expect a benign default environment over the next year. Moody’s trailing 12-month global issuer-weighted speculative-grade default rate ended December 2018 at 2.4%, below the long-term average of 4.2%. Although bouts of volatility may persist, we take a long-term, issuer-specific approach to finding opportunities in this market.

 

Prevailing global political uncertainty and elevated trade tensions may contribute to additional episodes of market volatility. However, most of the high-yield companies in our opportunity set operate in domestically focused industries. Because U.S. conditions remain positive, we continue to favor issuers expected to benefit from a growing domestic economy. Risks to our outlook include the ability of global financial markets to cope with future central bank rate hikes and the uncharted territory of quantitative tightening. Although Fed rhetoric appears more dovish, we remain cognizant of the difficulty of engineering a soft landing.

 

The fund’s shortfalls

 

Positioning and security selection among wirelines companies detracted from relative returns. Security selection in automotive and health care also hurt.

 

The fund’s successes

 

The fund benefited from positioning and credit selection in the energy sector and security selection among retail and wireless companies.

 

The fund’s positioning

 

The fund remains consistent in its investment objective and strategy and maintains a meaningful exposure to relatively higher-quality areas of the high-yield market. We believe these companies have more stable credit profiles and greater predictability of cash flows than those at the lower end of the spectrum, and we favor them in an effort to minimize defaults and provide stable income. We continue to diversify the fund’s holdings by issuer and industry and to deemphasize non-cash-paying securities, preferred stocks, and equity-linked securities such as convertibles because of their potential for volatility.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

 

 

As a shareholder of the 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 costs (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.

 

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

 

·   Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the fund’s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, 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 under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period.”

 

·   Based on hypothetical 5% yearly 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 a yearly 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. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% 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.

 

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

 

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

 

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The funds’ annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund, 0.20% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares, and 0.07% for Institutional Shares; for the Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund, 0.20% for Investor Shares and 0.10% for Admiral Shares; for the Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund, 0.22% for Investor Shares and 0.12% for Admiral Shares; for the High-Yield Corporate Fund, 0.23% for Investor Shares and 0.13% for Admiral Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

 

Vanguard Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. Certain of the fund’s investments are in corporate debt instruments; the issuers’ abilities to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in their respective industries. The fund invests in securities of foreign issuers, which may subject it to investment risks not normally associated with investing in securities of U.S. corporations. To minimize the currency risk associated with investment in bonds denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the fund attempts to hedge its currency exposures. The fund offers three classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, and Institutional Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market- or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund’s pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

 

2. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund’s pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

 

3. Futures Contracts: The fund uses futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The

 

44


 

Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 8% and 5% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

4. Forward Currency Contracts: The fund enters into forward currency contracts to protect the value of securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates. The fund’s risks in using these contracts include movement in the values of the foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations under the contracts. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into forward currency contracts only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. The master netting arrangements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate the forward currency contracts, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The forward currency contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any assets pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the forward currency contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

Forward currency contracts are valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent third party, adjusted for currency risk based on the expiration date of each contract. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized forward currency contract gains (losses).

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investment in forward currency contracts represented 2% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

5. Swap Contracts: The fund invests in credit default swaps to adjust the overall credit risk of the fund or to actively overweight or underweight credit risk to a specific issuer or group of issuers. The fund may sell credit protection through credit default swaps to simulate investments in long positions that are either unavailable or considered to be less attractively priced in the bond market. The fund may purchase credit protection through credit default swaps to reduce credit exposure to a given issuer or issuers. Under the terms of the swaps, an up-front payment may be exchanged between the seller and buyer. In addition, the seller of the credit protection receives a periodic payment of premium from the buyer that is a fixed percentage applied to a notional amount. If, for example, the reference entity is subject to a credit event (such as bankruptcy, failure to pay, or obligation acceleration) during the term of the swap, the seller agrees to either physically settle or cash settle the swap contract. If the swap is physically settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount and take delivery of a debt instrument of the reference issuer with a par amount equal to such notional amount. If the swap is cash settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer the difference between the notional amount and the final price for the relevant debt instrument, as determined either in a market auction or pursuant to a pre-agreed-upon valuation procedure.

 

The fund enters into interest rate swap transactions to adjust the fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates and maintain the ability to generate income at prevailing market rates. Under the terms of the swaps, one party pays the other an amount that is a fixed percentage rate applied to a notional amount. In return, the counterparty agrees to pay a floating rate, which is reset periodically based on short-term interest rates, applied to the same notional amount.

 

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the seller of credit protection is required to take delivery (or, in a cash settled swap, pay the settlement amount determined) upon occurrence of a credit event, periodic payments are made, or the swap terminates, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded. The net premium to be received or paid by the fund under swap contracts is accrued daily and recorded as realized gain (loss) over the life of the contract.

 

The primary risk associated with selling credit protection is that, upon the occurrence of a defined credit event, the market value of the debt instrument received by the fund (or, in a cash settled swap, the debt instruments used to determine the settlement payment by the fund) will be significantly less than the amount paid by the fund and, in a physically settled swap, the fund may receive an illiquid debt instrument. A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated.

 

46


 

Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

The fund enters into centrally cleared interest rate and credit default swaps to achieve the same objectives specified with respect to the equivalent over-the-counter swaps but with less counterparty risk because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker or executing broker. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance, and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades with a diverse group of prequalified executing brokers; monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers, executing brokers, and clearinghouse; and has entered into agreements with its clearing brokers and executing brokers.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average amounts of investments in credit protection sold and credit protection purchased represented 1% and 3% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period. The average amount of investments in interest rate swaps represented 4% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

6. Options: The fund invests in options contracts on futures and swaps to adjust its exposure to the underlying investments. The primary risk associated with purchasing options is that the value of the underlying investments may move in such a way that the option is out-of-the-money (the exercise price of the option exceeds the value of the underlying investment), the position is worthless at expiration, and the fund loses the premium paid. The primary risk associated with selling options is that the value of the underlying investments may move in such a way that the option is in-the-money (the exercise price of the option exceeds the value of the underlying investment), the counterparty exercises the option, and the fund loses an amount equal to the market value of the option written less the premium received.

 

The fund invests in options on futures, which are exchange-traded. Counterparty risk involving exchange-traded options on futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades options on futures on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouses, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers.

 

The fund invests in options on swaps (swaptions), which are transacted over-the-counter (OTC) and not on an exchange. A receiver swaption gives the owner the right to receive the total return of a specified asset, reference rate, or index. A payer swaption gives the owner the right to pay the total return of a specified asset, reference rate, or index. Swaptions also include options that allow an existing swap to be terminated or extended by one of the counterparties. Unlike exchange-traded options, which are standardized with respect to the underlying instrument, expiration date, contract

 

47


 

Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

size, and strike price, the terms of OTC options generally are established through negotiation with the other party to the option contract. Although this type of arrangement allows the purchaser or writer greater flexibility to tailor an option to its needs, OTC options generally involve greater credit risk than exchange-traded options. Credit risk involves the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaptions with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties and monitoring their financial strength.

 

Options on futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. Swaptions are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers. The premium paid for a purchased option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option purchased. The premium received for a written option is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset with an equal liability that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option written. Fluctuations in the value of the options are recorded in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until expired, closed, or exercised, at which time realized gains (losses) are recognized.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average value of investments in options purchased and options written each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average market values at each quarter-end during the period.

 

7. To Be Announced (TBA) Transactions: A TBA transaction is an agreement to buy or sell mortgage-backed securities with agreed-upon characteristics (face amount, coupon, maturity) for settlement at a future date. The fund may be a seller of TBA transactions to reduce its exposure to the mortgage-backed securities market or in order to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed-delivery arrangements. When the fund is a buyer of TBA transactions, it maintains cash or short-term investments in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price at the settlement date of the TBA transaction. The primary risk associated with TBA transactions is that a counterparty may default on its obligations. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by, among other things, performing a credit analysis of counterparties, allocating transactions among numerous counterparties, and monitoring its exposure to each counterparty. The fund may also enter into a Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement (MSFTA) with certain counterparties and require them to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Under an MSFTA, upon a counterparty default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any TBA transactions with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements.

 

8. Mortgage Dollar Rolls: The fund enters into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions, in which the fund sells mortgage-backed securities to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to purchase similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The proceeds of the securities sold in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are typically invested in high-quality short-term fixed income securities. The fund forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities sold, and is compensated by interest earned on the proceeds of the sale and by a lower price on the securities to be repurchased. The fund accounts for mortgage-dollar-roll transactions as purchases and sales; as such, these transactions may

 

48


 

Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

increase the fund’s portfolio turnover rate. Amounts to be received or paid in connection with open mortgage dollar rolls are included in Receivables for Investment Securities Sold or Payables for Investment Securities Purchased in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

9. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

10. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

11. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

12. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses), and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

 

49


 

Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $3,195,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 1.28% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

C.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of January 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

E.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for in-kind redemptions, foreign currency transactions, and swap agreements were reclassified between the following accounts:

 

 

Amount

 

($000)

Paid-in Capital

Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)

(52)

 

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles, the realization of unrealized gains or losses on certain futures contracts, forward currency contracts, options, and payables for distributions. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

Performance Summary

 

 

 

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

Vanguard Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. Certain of the fund’s investments are in corporate debt instruments; the issuers’ abilities to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in their respective industries. The fund invests in securities of foreign issuers, which may subject it to investment risks not normally associated with investing in securities of U.S. corporations. To minimize the currency risk associated with investment in bonds denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the fund attempts to hedge its currency exposures. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market- or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund’s pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

 

2. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund’s pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

 

3. Futures Contracts: The fund uses futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The

 

81


 

Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 19% and 9% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

4. Forward Currency Contracts: The fund enters into forward currency contracts to protect the value of securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates. The fund’s risks in using these contracts include movement in the values of the foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations under the contracts. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into forward currency contracts only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. The master netting arrangements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate the forward currency contracts, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The forward currency contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any assets pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the forward currency contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

Forward currency contracts are valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent third party, adjusted for currency risk based on the expiration date of each contract. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized forward currency contract gains (losses).

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investment in forward currency contracts represented 3% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

5. Swap Contracts: The fund invests in credit default swaps to adjust the overall credit risk of the fund or to actively overweight or underweight credit risk to a specific issuer or group of issuers. The fund may sell credit protection through credit default swaps to simulate investments in long positions that are either unavailable or considered to be less attractively priced in the bond market. The fund may purchase credit protection through credit default swaps to reduce credit exposure to a given issuer or issuers. Under the terms of the swaps, an up-front payment may be exchanged between the seller and buyer. In addition, the seller of the credit protection receives a periodic payment of premium from the buyer that is a fixed percentage applied to a notional amount. If, for example, the reference entity is subject to a credit event (such as bankruptcy, failure to pay, or obligation acceleration) during the term of the swap, the seller agrees to either physically settle or cash settle the swap contract. If the swap is physically settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount and take delivery of a debt instrument of the reference issuer with a par amount equal to such notional amount. If the swap is cash settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer the difference between the notional amount and the final price for the relevant debt instrument, as determined either in a market auction or pursuant to a pre-agreed-upon valuation procedure.

 

The fund enters into interest rate swap transactions to adjust the fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates and maintain the ability to generate income at prevailing market rates. Under the terms of the swaps, one party pays the other an amount that is a fixed percentage rate applied to a notional amount. In return, the counterparty agrees to pay a floating rate, which is reset periodically based on short-term interest rates, applied to the same notional amount.

 

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the seller of credit protection is required to take delivery (or, in a cash settled swap, pay the settlement amount determined) upon occurrence of a credit event, periodic payments are made, or the swap terminates, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded. The net premium to be received or paid by the fund under swap contracts is accrued daily and recorded as realized gain (loss) over the life of the contract.

 

The primary risk associated with selling credit protection is that, upon the occurrence of a defined credit event, the market value of the debt instrument received by the fund (or, in a cash settled swap, the debt instruments used to determine the settlement payment by the fund) will be significantly less than the amount paid by the fund and, in a physically settled swap, the fund may receive an illiquid debt instrument. A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the

 

83


 

Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

The fund enters into centrally cleared interest rate and credit default swaps to achieve the same objectives specified with respect to the equivalent over-the-counter swaps but with less counterparty risk because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker or executing broker. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance, and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades with a diverse group of prequalified executing brokers; monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers, executing brokers, and clearinghouse; and has entered into agreements with its clearing brokers and executing brokers.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average amounts of investments in credit protection sold and credit protection purchased each represented 2% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period. The average amount of investments in interest rate swaps represented 3% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

6. Options: The fund invests in options contracts on futures and swaps to adjust its exposure to the underlying investments. The primary risk associated with purchasing options is that the value of the underlying investments may move in such a way that the option is out-of-the-money (the exercise price of the option exceeds the value of the underlying investment), the position is worthless at expiration, and the fund loses the premium paid. The primary risk associated with selling options is that the value of the underlying investments may move in such a way that the option is in-the-money (the exercise price of the option exceeds the value of the underlying investment), the counterparty exercises the option, and the fund loses an amount equal to the market value of the option written less the premium received.

 

The fund invests in options on futures, which are exchange-traded. Counterparty risk involving exchange-traded options on futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades options on futures on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouses, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers.

 

The fund invests in options on swaps (swaptions), which are transacted over-the-counter (OTC) and not on an exchange. A receiver swaption gives the owner the right to receive the total return of a specified asset, reference rate, or index. A payer swaption gives the owner the right to pay the total return of a specified asset, reference rate, or index. Swaptions also include options that allow an

 

84


 

Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

existing swap to be terminated or extended by one of the counterparties. Unlike exchange-traded options, which are standardized with respect to the underlying instrument, expiration date, contract size, and strike price, the terms of OTC options generally are established through negotiation with the other party to the option contract. Although this type of arrangement allows the purchaser or writer greater flexibility to tailor an option to its needs, OTC options generally involve greater credit risk than exchange-traded options. Credit risk involves the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaptions with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties and monitoring their financial strength.

 

Options on futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. Swaptions are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers. The premium paid for a purchased option is recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option purchased. The premium received for a written option is recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset with an equal liability that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option written. Fluctuations in the value of the options are recorded in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until expired, closed, or exercised, at which time realized gains (losses) are recognized.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average value in options purchased and options written each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average market values at each quarter-end during the period.

 

7. To Be Announced (TBA) Transactions: A TBA transaction is an agreement to buy or sell mortgagebacked securities with agreed-upon characteristics (face amount, coupon, maturity) for settlement at a future date. The fund may be a seller of TBA transactions to reduce its exposure to the mortgagebacked securities market or in order to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayeddelivery arrangements. When the fund is a buyer of TBA transactions, it maintains cash or short-term investments in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price at the settlement date of the TBA transaction. The primary risk associated with TBA transactions is that a counterparty may default on its obligations. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by, among other things, performing a credit analysis of counterparties, allocating transactions among numerous counterparties, and monitoring its exposure to each counterparty. The fund may also enter into a Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement (MSFTA) with certain counterparties and require them to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Under an MSFTA, upon a counterparty default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any TBA transactions with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements.

 

8. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

85


 

Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

9. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

10. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

11. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Net Assets. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $1,606,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.64% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

C.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

E.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for in-kind redemptions, foreign currency transactions and swap agreements were reclassified between the following accounts:

 

 

Amount

 

($000)

Paid-in Capital

Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)

(22)

 

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles; the realization of unrealized gains or losses on certain futures contracts, forward currency contracts, options, and swap agreements and payables for distributions. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

Performance Summary

 

 

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

Vanguard Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. Certain of the fund’s investments are in corporate debt instruments; the issuers’ abilities to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in their respective industries. The fund invests in securities of foreign issuers, which may subject it to investment risks not normally associated with investing in securities of U.S. corporations. To minimize the currency risk associated with investment in bonds denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the fund attempts to hedge its currency exposures. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market- or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund’s pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

 

2. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund’s pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

 

3. Futures Contracts: The fund uses futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse

 

112


 

Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 5% and 3% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

4. Forward Currency Contracts: The fund enters into forward currency contracts to protect the value of securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates. The fund’s risks in using these contracts include movement in the values of the foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations under the contracts. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into forward currency contracts only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. The master netting arrangements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate the forward currency contracts, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The forward currency contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any assets pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the forward currency contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

Forward currency contracts are valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent third party, adjusted for currency risk based on the expiration date of each contract. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized forward currency contract gains (losses).

 

113


 

Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investment in forward currency contracts represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

5. Swap Contracts: The fund invests in credit default swaps to adjust the overall credit risk of the fund or to actively overweight or underweight credit risk to a specific issuer or group of issuers. The fund may sell credit protection through credit default swaps to simulate investments in long positions that are either unavailable or considered to be less attractively priced in the bond market. The fund may purchase credit protection through credit default swaps to reduce credit exposure to a given issuer or issuers. Under the terms of the swaps, an up-front payment may be exchanged between the seller and buyer. In addition, the seller of the credit protection receives a periodic payment of premium from the buyer that is a fixed percentage applied to a notional amount. If, for example, the reference entity is subject to a credit event (such as bankruptcy, failure to pay, or obligation acceleration) during the term of the swap, the seller agrees to either physically settle or cash settle the swap contract. If the swap is physically settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount and take delivery of a debt instrument of the reference issuer with a par amount equal to such notional amount. If the swap is cash settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer the difference between the notional amount and the final price for the relevant debt instrument, as determined either in a market auction or pursuant to a pre-agreed-upon valuation procedure.

 

The fund enters into interest rate swap transactions to adjust the fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates and maintain the ability to generate income at prevailing market rates. Under the terms of the swaps, one party pays the other an amount that is a fixed percentage rate applied to a notional amount. In return, the counterparty agrees to pay a floating rate, which is reset periodically based on short-term interest rates, applied to the same notional amount.

 

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the seller of credit protection is required to take delivery (or, in a cash settled swap, pay the settlement amount determined) upon occurrence of a credit event, periodic payments are made, or the swap terminates, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded. The net premium to be received or paid by the fund under swap contracts is accrued daily and recorded as realized gain (loss) over the life of the contract.

 

The primary risk associated with selling credit protection is that, upon the occurrence of a defined credit event, the market value of the debt instrument received by the fund (or, in a cash settled swap, the debt instruments used to determine the settlement payment by the fund) will be significantly less than the amount paid by the fund and, in a physically settled swap, the fund may receive an illiquid debt instrument. A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may

 

114


 

Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

The fund enters into centrally cleared interest rate and credit default swaps to achieve the same objectives specified with respect to the equivalent over-the-counter swaps but with less counterparty risk because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker or executing broker. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance, and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades with a diverse group of prequalified executing brokers; monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers, executing brokers, and clearinghouse; and has entered into agreements with its clearing brokers and executing brokers.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average amounts of investments in credit protection sold and credit protection purchased represented 17% and less than 1% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period. The average amount of investments in interest rate swaps represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

6. Options: The fund invests in options contracts on futures and swaps to adjust its exposure to the underlying investments. The primary risk associated with purchasing options is that the value of the underlying investments may move in such a way that the option is out-of-the-money (the exercise price of the option exceeds the value of the underlying investment), the position is worthless at expiration, and the fund loses the premium paid. The primary risk associated with selling options is that the value of the underlying investments may move in such a way that the option is in-the-money (the exercise price of the option exceeds the value of the underlying investment), the counterparty exercises the option, and the fund loses an amount equal to the market value of the option written less the premium received.

 

The fund invests in options on futures, which are exchange-traded. Counterparty risk involving exchange-traded options on futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades options on futures on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouses, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers.

 

The fund invests in options on swaps (swaptions), which are transacted over-the-counter (OTC) and not on an exchange. A receiver swaption gives the owner the right to receive the total return of a specified asset, reference rate, or index. A payer swaption gives the owner the right to pay the total return of a specified asset, reference rate, or index. Swaptions also include options that allow an existing swap to be terminated or extended by one of the counterparties. Unlike exchange-traded options, which are standardized with respect to the underlying instrument, expiration date, contract

 

115


 

Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

size, and strike price, the terms of OTC options generally are established through negotiation with the other party to the option contract. Although this type of arrangement allows the purchaser or writer greater flexibility to tailor an option to its needs, OTC options generally involve greater credit risk than exchange-traded options. Credit risk involves the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaptions with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties and monitoring their financial strength.

 

Options on futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. Swaptions are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers. The premium paid for a purchased option is recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option purchased. The premium received for a written option is recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset with an equal liability that is subsequently adjusted daily to the current market value of the option written. Fluctuations in the value of the options are recorded in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until expired, closed, or exercised, at which time realized gains (losses) are recognized.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average value of options purchased and options written each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average market values at each quarter-end during the period.

 

7. To Be Announced (TBA) Transactions: A TBA transaction is an agreement to buy or sell mortgage-backed securities with agreed-upon characteristics (face amount, coupon, maturity) for settlement at a future date. The fund may be a seller of TBA transactions to reduce its exposure to the mortgage-backed securities market or in order to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed-delivery arrangements. When the fund is a buyer of TBA transactions, it maintains cash or short-term investments in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price at the settlement date of the TBA transaction. The primary risk associated with TBA transactions is that a counterparty may default on its obligations. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by, among other things, performing a credit analysis of counterparties, allocating transactions among numerous counterparties, and monitoring its exposure to each counterparty. The fund may also enter into a Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement (MSFTA) with certain counterparties and require them to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Under an MSFTA, upon a counterparty default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any TBA transactions with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements.

 

8. Mortgage Dollar Rolls: The fund enters into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions, in which the fund sells mortgage-backed securities to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to purchase similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The proceeds of the securities sold in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are typically invested in high-quality short-term fixed income securities. The fund forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities sold, and is compensated by interest earned on the proceeds of the sale and by a lower price on the securities to be repurchased. The fund accounts for mortgage-dollar-roll transactions as purchases and sales; as such, these transactions

may increase the fund portfolio turnover rate. Amounts to be received or paid in connection with open mortgage dollar rolls are included in Receivables for Investment Securities Sold or Payables for Investment Securities Purchased in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

9. Repurchase Agreements: The fund enters into repurchase agreements with institutional counterparties. Securities pledged as collateral to the fund under repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature, and in the absence of a default, such collateral cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into repurchase agreements only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master repurchase agreements with its counterparties. The master repurchase agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any repurchase agreements with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund. Such action may be subject to legal proceedings, which may delay or limit the disposition of collateral.

 

10. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016—2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

11. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

12. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

13. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

117


 

Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund

 

 

 

 

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  Wellington Management Company LLP provides investment advisory services to a portion of the fund for a fee calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets managed by the advisor.

 

Vanguard provides investment advisory services to a portion of the fund as described below; the fund paid Vanguard advisory fees of $752,000 for the year ended January 31, 2019.

 

For the year ended January 31, 2019, the aggregate investment advisory fee paid to all advisors represented an effective annual rate of 0.02% of the fund’s average net assets.

 

C.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Net Assets. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $896,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.36% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

D.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

F.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for foreign currency transactions and swap agreements were reclassified between the individual components of total distributable earnings (loss).

Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)

 

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles, the

Performance Summary

 

 

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

§ Certain of the fund’s securites are valued using significant unobservable inputs.

† Represents the aggregate value, by category, of securities that are not among the 50 largest holdings and, in total for any issuer, represent 1% or less of net assets.

1 Securities with a value of $8,684,000 have been segregated as initial margin for open cleared swap contracts.

2 Securities with a value of $2,144,000 have been segregated as collateral for open forward currency contracts.

Such securities may be sold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers.

High-Yield Corporate Fund

 

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

 

Vanguard High-Yield Corporate Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. Certain of the fund’s investments are in corporate debt instruments; the issuers’ abilities to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in their respective industries. The fund invests in securities of foreign issuers, which may subject it to investment risks not normally associated with investing in securities of U.S. corporations. To minimize the currency risk associated with investment in bonds denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the fund attempts to hedge its currency exposures. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market- or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund’s pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

 

2. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund’s pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

 

3. Forward Currency Contracts: The fund enters into forward currency contracts to protect the value of securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates. The fund’s risks in using these contracts include movement in the values of the foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations

under the contracts. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into forward currency contracts only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. The master netting arrangements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate the forward currency contracts, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The forward currency contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any assets pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the forward currency contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

Forward currency contracts are valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent third party, adjusted for currency risk based on the expiration date of each contract. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized forward currency contract gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investment in forward currency contracts represented 2% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

4. Swap Contracts: The fund invests in credit default swaps to adjust the overall credit risk of the fund or to actively overweight or underweight credit risk to a specific issuer or group of issuers. The fund may sell credit protection through credit default swaps to simulate investments in long positions that are either unavailable or considered to be less attractively priced in the bond market. The fund may purchase credit protection through credit default swaps to reduce credit exposure to a given issuer or issuers. Under the terms of the swaps, an up-front payment may be exchanged between the seller and buyer. In addition, the seller of the credit protection receives a periodic payment of premium from the buyer that is a fixed percentage applied to a notional amount. If, for example, the reference entity is subject to a credit event (such as bankruptcy, failure to pay, or obligation acceleration) during the term of the swap, the seller agrees to either physically settle or cash settle the swap contract. If the swap is physically settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount and take delivery of a debt instrument of the reference issuer with a par amount equal to such notional amount. If the swap is cash settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer the difference between the notional amount and the final price for the relevant debt instrument, as determined either in a market auction or pursuant to a pre-agreed-upon valuation procedure.

 

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability)

 

136


 

High-Yield Corporate Fund

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the seller of credit protection is required to take delivery (or, in a cash settled swap, pay the settlement amount determined) upon occurrence of a credit event, periodic payments are made, or the swap terminates, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded. The net premium to be received or paid by the fund under swap contracts is accrued daily and recorded as realized gain (loss) over the life of the contract.

 

The primary risk associated with selling credit protection is that, upon the occurrence of a defined credit event, the market value of the debt instrument received by the fund (or, in a cash settled swap, the debt instruments used to determine the settlement payment by the fund) will be significantly less than the amount paid by the fund and, in a physically settled swap, the fund may receive an illiquid debt instrument. A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

The fund enters into centrally cleared credit default swaps to achieve the same objectives specified with respect to the equivalent over-the-counter swaps but with less counterparty risk because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker or executing broker. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance, and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades with a diverse group of prequalified executing brokers; monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers, executing brokers, and clearinghouse; and has entered into agreements with its clearing brokers and executing brokers.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average amounts of investments in credit protection sold and credit protection purchased represented 2% and 0% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

5. Repurchase Agreements: The fund enters into repurchase agreements with institutional counterparties. Securities pledged as collateral to the fund under repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature, and in the absence of a default, such collateral cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into repurchase agreements only with a diverse group of prequalified

 

137


 

High-Yield Corporate Fund

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master repurchase agreements with its counterparties. The master repurchase agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any repurchase agreements with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund. Such action may be subject to legal proceedings, which may delay or limit the disposition of collateral.

 

6. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

7. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

8. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

9. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  Wellington Management Company LLP provides investment advisory services to the fund for a fee calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets. For the year ended January 31, 2019, the investment advisory fee represented an effective annual rate of 0.03% of the fund’s average net assets.

C.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Net Assets. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $1,200,000 representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.48% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

D.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

 

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

 

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of January 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

F.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets, are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for foreign currency transactions and swap agreements were reclassified between the individual components of total distributable earnings (loss).

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the realization of

unrealized gains or losses on certain forward currency contracts, payables for distributions, the tax recognition of gain or loss from foreign currency hedges, and the difference in the classification of securities for tax purposes.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Trustees of Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Funds and Shareholders of Vanguard Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund, Vanguard Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund, Vanguard Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund and Vanguard High-Yield Corporate Fund

 

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Vanguard Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund and statements of net assets—investments summary of Vanguard Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund, Vanguard Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund, Vanguard Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund and Vanguard High-Yield Corporate Fund (four of the funds constituting Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Funds, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of January 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended January 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended January 31, 2019, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended January 31, 2019 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of January 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended January 31, 2019 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended January 31, 2019 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinions

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of January 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodians, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

A Note From Our Chairman

 

 

 

 

 

Tim Buckley

 

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

 

 

 

 

Dear Shareholder,

 

Over the years, I’ve found that prudent investors exhibit a common trait: discipline. No matter how the markets move or what new investing fad hits the headlines, those who stay focused on their goals and tune out the noise are set up for long-term success.

 

The prime gateway to investing is saving, and you don’t usually become a saver without a healthy dose of discipline. Savers make the decision to sock away part of their income, which means spending less and delaying gratification, no matter how difficult that may be.

 

Of course, disciplined investing extends beyond diligent saving. The financial markets, in the short term especially, are unpredictable; I have yet to meet the investor who can time them perfectly. It takes discipline to resist the urge to go all-in when markets are frothy or to retreat when things look bleak.

 

Staying put with your investments is one strategy for handling volatility. Another, rebalancing, requires even more discipline because it means steering your money away from strong performers and toward poorer performers.

 

Patience—a form of discipline—is also the friend of long-term investors. Higher returns are the potential reward for weathering the market’s turbulence and uncertainty.

 

It’s important to be prepared for that turbulence, whenever it appears. Don’t panic. Don’t chase returns or look for answers outside the asset classes you trust. And be sure to rebalance periodically, even when there’s turmoil.

 

Whether you’re a master of self-control, get a boost from technology, or work with a professional advisor, know that discipline is necessary to get the most out of your investment portfolio. And know that Vanguard is with you for the entire ride.

 

Thank you for your continued loyalty.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Mortimer J. Buckley

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

 

 

·   For the 12 months ended January 31, 2019, Vanguard Ultra-Short-Term Bond Fund returned 2.34% for Investor Shares and 2.44% for Admiral Shares. These returns were above those of its benchmark index (+2.11%).

 

·   The benchmark index consists of a single bond (the most recently issued 1-year Treasury). The fund seeks to provide current income while maintaining limited price volatility. The majority of its holdings have an expected maturity of three years or less.

 

·   The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds target rate four times during the year, bringing it to a range of 2.25%–2.5%, but signaled that it would be patient in making further hikes.

 

·   The fund benefited primarily from its allocations to asset-backed securities and corporates. Within asset-backed securities, the fund’s exposure to automobile loans and credit-card debt helped results most.

Advisor’s Report

 

 

For the 12 months ended January 31, 2019, Vanguard Ultra-Short-Term Bond Fund returned 2.34% for Investor Shares and 2.44% for Admiral Shares. The fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Treasury Bellwethers: 1 Year Index, which consists of a single 1-year Treasury note, returned 2.11%.

 

Investment environment

 

Macroeconomic fundamentals were robust throughout much of the 12 months. Business confidence held up, even in the face of trade uncertainties, and consumer spending was supported by solid expansion in the job market.

 

Unemployment finished the fund’s fiscal year at 4.0%, after hitting an almost 50-year low toward the end of 2018. The tax cuts enacted in late 2017 and the approval in March 2018 to increase federal government spending added to optimism about growth, which remained above its long-term potential in 2018. On the inflation front, price increases moved toward the Federal Reserve’s target of 2%.

 

The Federal Reserve, acknowledging the health of the economy, moved further down the path toward monetary policy normalization. It raised the federal funds target rate four times, bringing it up to a range of 2.25%–2.5%, but signaled it would be patient in making further hikes in light of global economic and financial developments and muted inflation pressures.

 

The Fed also continued shrinking the $4.5 trillion balance sheet it had amassed as part of the stimulus provided in the wake of the 2007–2009 financial crisis. Markets reacted to this period of quantitative tightening with unease, given the unprecedented level of stimulus that had been in place over the past decade.

 

The direction of monetary policy, along with concerns about trade tensions with China and economic growth in Europe, led to fears of a global economic slowdown toward the end of 2018. As a result, the market began to price in a higher probability of a recession. The adjustment had a

disproportionate impact on parts of the U.S. credit market—among them, highly leveraged corporates—that are more sensitive to cyclical forces.

 

At the end of January, as the Fed signaled that it might slow the pace of further rate hikes in 2019, credit markets became more optimistic. Spreads slowly began to tighten; liquidity, which had fallen throughout much of the fiscal year, rebounded.

 

The Treasury yield curve flattened over the 12 months. Fed action drove the yield of the 2-year Treasury note up 32 basis points, to 2.46%. (A basis point is one-hundredth of a percentage point.)

 

Demand for longer-term bonds was supported at times by escalating trade tensions, political uncertainty in Europe, and geopolitical flare-ups. The softening in the outlook for growth and inflation, however, led yields on these securities to end the period a little lower than where they started. The yield of the bellwether 10-year Treasury note finished the period down 8 basis points at 2.63%.

 

Investment-grade corporate bonds returned 0.75%. Corporate fundamentals remained strong and corporate earnings were very robust during the beginning of the period—the tax cuts helped with that—but valuations were high and technical support weakened. As a result of the tax changes for corporations, a number of large multinational companies that had been investing overseas money in high-quality corporate bonds withdrew from the market. And with the Fed on a tightening path, rising hedging costs for foreign buyers caused some of them to pull back as well. Another challenge for the sector was the market’s uncertainty about the longer-term credit outlook.

 

Management of the fund

 

Your fund is supported by the full resources of Vanguard’s Fixed Income Group: its credit analysts, risk managers, and bond traders. We use the same investment philosophy and processes that are in place at Vanguard’s other actively managed taxable bond funds. This includes investing in a diversified array of securities, including Treasury, agency, corporate, and asset-backed bonds, in our quest to provide income while maintaining limited price volatility.

 

A majority of the fund’s holdings have an expected maturity of three years or less, and we typically hold those bonds until they mature. We strive to maintain the fund’s duration (a measure of the sensitivity of bond, and bond mutual fund, prices to changes in interest rates) at or near one year. That duration is in line with the fund’s 1-year Treasury benchmark.

 

We seek to add value versus the fund’s benchmark through asset allocation and security selection. The choices we make in allocation by issuer, sector, and credit quality can lead to over- and underper-formance relative to the benchmark.

During the period, we continued to have significant exposure to asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities, both of which we view as having attractive return prospects, particularly on the short end of the yield curve. The asset-backed securities were primarily backed by automobile loans and credit card accounts. Both sectors are very liquid and help us manage positions in the fund.

 

Our overweight to corporates, especially our positions in transportation, capital goods, and communications companies, helped performance. We remain optimistic, as investor uncertainty over the credit cycle will limit how much the Fed can tighten in 2019. We believe that in the current environment, high-quality corporate bonds are well-positioned—especially short-duration corporate bonds, which are less vulnerable to wider spreads. We will continue to take advantage of opportunities in an environment where fundamentals remain strong but uncertainty in the macro environment is prompting some volatility.

 

Outlook

 

Headwinds for credit are likely to increase later this year. That said, the Fed’s recent adoption of a more patient bias regarding further interest rate hikes and the unwinding of the Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities on its balance sheet should provide some support to risk assets. Any ratcheting down of trade tensions would be a positive as well.

 

At the same time, the global economy is set to slow. Major economies including China and the euro area are experiencing some deceleration. And while the U.S. economy is on pace to stay above its long-term potential growth rate in 2019 thanks to consumer and business spending, a strong labor market, and some further support from tax reform and government spending, growth is likely to fall toward 2% by the end of this year. Longer-term, we continue to expect structural pressures from an aging population, global sourcing of goods and labor, and technological disruptions to result in moderate long-run growth and inflation.

 

We are likely to see bouts of volatility related to shifting market expectations regarding inflation and interest rates. Signs of slowing growth, especially relating to the United States and China, could also trigger volatility, as could an intensification of trade disputes, flare-ups in geopolitical tensions, and missteps by central banks.

 

Whatever the markets may bring, our experienced team of portfolio managers, credit analysts, and traders will continue to seek out opportunities to add to the fund’s performance.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

 

 

As a shareholder of the 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 costs (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.

 

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

 

·   Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the fund’s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, 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 under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period.”

 

·   Based on hypothetical 5% yearly 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 a yearly 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. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% 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.

 

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

 

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

 

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are 0.20% for Investor Shares and 0.10% for Admiral Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

Ultra-Short-Term Bond Fund

 

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

 

Vanguard Ultra-Short-Term Bond Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. Certain of the fund’s investments are in corporate debt instruments; the issuers’ abilities to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in their respective industries. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds and temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Structured debt securities, including mortgages and asset-backed securities, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system that considers such factors as issuer, tranche, nominal or option-adjusted spreads, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, credit enhancements, and collateral. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market-or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund’s pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

 

2. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund’s pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

 

3. Futures Contracts: The fund uses futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated

clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 13% and 1% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

4. Forward Currency Contracts: The fund enters into forward currency contracts to protect the value of securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates. The fund’s risks in using these contracts include movement in the values of the foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations under the contracts. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into forward currency contracts only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. The master netting arrangements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate the forward currency contracts, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The forward currency contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any assets pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the forward currency contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

Forward currency contracts are valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent third party, adjusted for currency risk based on the expiration date of each contract. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized forward currency contract gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investment in forward currency contracts represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

5. Swap Contracts: The fund invests in credit default swaps to adjust the overall credit risk of the fund or to actively overweight or underweight credit risk to a specific issuer or group of issuers. The fund may sell credit protection through credit default swaps to simulate investments in long positions that are either unavailable or considered to be less attractively priced in the bond market. The fund may purchase credit protection through credit default swaps to reduce credit exposure to a given issuer or issuers. Under the terms of the swaps, an up-front payment may be exchanged between the seller and buyer. In addition, the seller of the credit protection receives a periodic payment of premium from the buyer that is a fixed percentage applied to a notional amount. If, for example, the reference entity is subject to a credit event (such as bankruptcy, failure to pay, or obligation acceleration) during the term of the swap, the seller agrees to either physically settle or cash settle the swap contract. If the swap is physically settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount and take delivery of a debt instrument of the reference issuer with a par amount equal to such notional amount. If the swap is cash settled, the seller agrees to pay the buyer the difference between the notional amount and the final price for the relevant debt instrument, as determined either in a market auction or pursuant to a pre-agreed-upon valuation procedure.

 

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the seller of credit protection is required to take delivery (or, in a cash settled swap, pay the settlement amount determined) upon occurrence of a credit event, periodic payments are made, or the swap terminates, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded. The net premium to be received or paid by the fund under swap contracts is accrued daily and recorded as realized gain (loss) over the life of the contract.

 

The primary risk associated with selling credit protection is that, upon the occurrence of a defined credit event, the market value of the debt instrument received by the fund (or, in a cash settled swap, the debt instruments used to determine the settlement payment by the fund) will be significantly less than the amount paid by the fund and, in a physically settled swap, the fund may receive an illiquid debt instrument. A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund’s net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged

is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average amounts of investments in credit protection sold and credit protection purchased represented less than 1% and 0% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

6. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

7. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

8. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

9. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines

 

36


 

Ultra-Short-Term Bond Fund

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $296,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.12% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

C.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of January 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

E.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets, if any, are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for foreign currency transactions and swap agreements were reclassified between the individual components of total distributable earnings (loss).

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles, the realization of unrealized gains or losses on certain futures contracts and forward currency contracts, and payables for distributions. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Trustees of Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Funds and Shareholders of Vanguard Ultra-Short-Term Bond Fund

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets and statement of assets and liabilities of Vanguard Ultra-Short-Term Bond Fund (one of the funds constituting Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Funds, referred to hereafter as the “Fund”) as of January 31, 2019, the related statement of operations for the year ended January 31, 2019, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended January 31, 2019, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of January 31, 2019, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended January 31, 2019 and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of January 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodians, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

A Note From Our Chairman

 

 

 

 

Tim Buckley

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

 

 

 

Dear Shareholder,

 

Over the years, I’ve found that prudent investors exhibit a common trait: discipline. No matter how the markets move or what new investing fad hits the headlines, those who stay focused on their goals and tune out the noise are set up for long-term success.

 

The prime gateway to investing is saving, and you don’t usually become a saver without a healthy dose of discipline. Savers make the decision to sock away part of their income, which means spending less and delaying gratification, no matter how difficult that may be.

 

Of course, disciplined investing extends beyond diligent saving. The financial markets, in the short term especially, are unpredictable; I have yet to meet the investor who can time them perfectly. It takes discipline to resist the urge to go all-in when markets are frothy or to retreat when things look bleak.

 

Staying put with your investments is one strategy for handling volatility. Another, rebalancing, requires even more discipline because it means steering your money away from strong performers and toward poorer performers.

 

Patience—a form of discipline—is also the friend of long-term investors. Higher returns are the potential reward for weathering the market’s turbulence and uncertainty.

 

It’s important to be prepared for that turbulence, whenever it appears. Don’t panic. Don’t chase returns or look for answers outside the asset classes you trust. And be sure to rebalance periodically, even when there’s turmoil.

 

Whether you’re a master of self-control, get a boost from technology, or work with a professional advisor, know that discipline is necessary to get the most out of your investment portfolio. And know that Vanguard is with you for the entire ride.

 

Thank you for your continued loyalty.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Mortimer J. Buckley

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Your Fund’s Performance at a Glance

 

 

·  For the 12 months ended January 31, 2019, Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund returned 9.53% for Investor Shares. Returns were a bit higher for Institutional and Admiral Shares as well as for Vanguard Real Estate II Index Fund. The results were in line with those of the funds’ benchmark index.

 

·  In December, the Federal Reserve increased the target range for its federal funds rate by one-quarter of a percentage point, to between 2.25% and 2.5%. This was the Fed’s fourth rate hike of 2018.

 

·  As defensive stocks gained traction in the broader market beginning in the middle of 2018, the types of real estate investments that outperformed tended to be defensive as well.

 

·  Health care, residential, and specialized REITs contributed most to the funds’ returns. Hotel and resort REITs, real estate services, real estate development, and diversified real estate activities detracted from relative performance.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

 

 

As a shareholder of the 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 costs (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.

 

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

 

·   Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the fund’s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, 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 under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period.”

 

·   Based on hypothetical 5% yearly 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 a yearly 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. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% 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.

 

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

 

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

 

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the Real Estate Index Fund, 0.25% for Investor Shares, 0.11% for ETF Shares, 0.11% for Admiral Shares, and 0.09% for Institutional Shares; and for the Real Estate II Index Fund, 0.08%. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (184/365).

Performance Summary

 

 

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

Real Estate Index Fund

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers four classes of shares: Investor Shares, ETF Shares, Admiral Shares, and Institutional Shares. Each of the share classes has different eligibility and minimum purchase requirements, and is designed for different types of investors. ETF Shares are listed for trading on NYSE Arca; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

 

On November 19, 2018, the fund announced changes to the availability and minimum investment criteria of the Investor and Admiral share classes. It is anticipated that all of the outstanding Investor Shares will be automatically converted to Admiral Shares beginning in April 2019, with the exception of those held by Vanguard funds and certain other institutional investors.

 

As a part of its principal investment strategy, the fund attempts to replicate its benchmark index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets—either directly or indirectly through a wholly owned subsidiary—in the stocks that make up the index. Vanguard Real Estate II Index Fund is the wholly owned subsidiary in which the fund has invested a portion of its assets. For additional financial information about the Real Estate II Index Fund, refer to the accompanying financial statements.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in affiliated Vanguard funds are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services.

 

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented less than 1% and 0% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period. The fund had no open futures contracts at January 31, 2019.

 

3. Swap Contracts: The fund has entered into equity swap contracts to earn the total return on selected reference stocks in the fund’s target index. Under the terms of the swaps, the fund receives the total return on the referenced stock (i.e., receiving the increase or paying the decrease in value of the selected reference stock and receiving the equivalent of any dividends in respect of the selected referenced stock) over a specified period of time, applied to a notional amount that represents the value of a designated number of shares of the selected reference stock at the beginning of the equity swap contract. The fund also pays a floating rate that is based on short-term interest rates, applied to the notional amount. At the same time, the fund generally invests an amount approximating the notional amount of the swap in high-quality temporary cash investments.

 

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until termination of the swap, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded.

 

A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average amounts of investments in total return swaps represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

4. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2016–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

5. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The portion of distributions that exceeds a fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, as measured on a tax basis, constitute a non-taxable return of capital. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

 

6. Securities Lending: To earn additional income, the fund lends its securities to qualified institutional borrowers. Security loans are subject to termination by the fund at any time, and are required to be secured at all times by collateral in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled before the opening of the market on the next business day. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into securities lending transactions only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master securities lending agreements with its counterparties. The master securities lending agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any loans with that borrower, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund; however, such actions may be subject to legal proceedings. While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the event of a default, the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan. During the term of the loan, the fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities.

 

7. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

8. Other: Distributions received from investment securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Each investment security typically reports annually the tax character of its distributions. Dividend income, capital gain distributions received, and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) reflect the amounts of taxable income, capital gain, and return of capital reported by the investment securities, and management’s estimates of such amounts for investment security distributions for which

actual information has not been reported. Income, capital gain, and return of capital distributions received from affiliated Vanguard funds are recorded on ex-dividend date. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

 

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses), shareholder reporting, and the proxy. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

 

B.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $2,931,000, representing 0.00% of the fund’s net assets and 1.17% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

C.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

 

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

 

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of January 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

D.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for in-kind redemptions, distribution in excess, and swap agreements were reclassified between the following accounts:

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and the realization of unrealized gains or losses on certain swap agreements. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

Performance Summary

 

 

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

Real Estate II Index Fund

 

 

Notes to Financial Statements

 

 

Vanguard Real Estate II Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund is a wholly owned subsidiary of Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund (“Real Estate Index Fund”), and at January 31, 2019, the Real Estate Index Fund was the record and beneficial owner of 100% of the fund’s net assets. As part of the Real Estate Index Fund’s principal investment strategy, it attempts to replicate the benchmark index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets—either directly or indirectly through the fund—in the stocks that make up the index.

 

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

 

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value.

 

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract. Any assets pledged as initial margin for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The notional amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented less than 1% and 0% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of the notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period. The fund had no open futures contracts at January 31, 2019.

3. Swap Contracts: The fund has entered into equity swap contracts to earn the total return on selected reference stocks in the fund’s target index. Under the terms of the swaps, the fund receives the total return on the referenced stock (i.e., receiving the increase or paying the decrease in value of the selected reference stock and receiving the equivalent of any dividends in respect of the selected referenced stock) over a specified period of time, applied to a notional amount that represents the value of a designated number of shares of the selected reference stock at the beginning of the equity swap contract. The fund also pays a floating rate that is based on short-term interest rates, applied to the notional amount. At the same time, the fund generally invests an amount approximating the notional amount of the swap in high-quality temporary cash investments.

 

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Swaps are valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized dealers and the change in value is recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until termination of the swap, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded.

 

A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund’s maximum amount subject to counterparty risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Statement of Net Assets. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2019, the fund’s average amounts of investments in total return swaps represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average of notional amounts at each quarter-end during the period.

 

4. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (January 31, 2018–2019), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

 

5. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The portion of distributions that exceeds a fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, as measured on a tax basis, constitute a non-taxable return of capital. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes.

6. Securities Lending: To earn additional income, the fund lends its securities to qualified institutional borrowers. Security loans are subject to termination by the fund at any time, and are required to be secured at all times by collateral in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled before the opening of the market on the next business day. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into securities lending transactions only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master securities lending agreements with its counterparties. The master securities lending agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any loans with that borrower, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund; however, such actions may be subject to legal proceedings. While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the event of a default, the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Net Assets for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan. During the term of the loan, the fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities.

 

7. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

 

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2019, or at any time during the period then ended.

 

8. Other: Distributions received from investment securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Each investment security reports annually the tax character of its distributions. Dividend income, capital gain distributions received, and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) reflect the amounts of taxable income, capital gain, and return of capital reported by the investment securities, and management’s estimates of such amounts for investment security distributions for which actual information has not been reported. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

B.  In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Net Assets. All other costs of operations payable to Vanguard are generally settled twice a month.

 

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At January 31, 2019, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $332,000, representing 0.00% of the fund’s net assets and 0.13% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

 

C.  Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

 

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

 

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted on the Statement of Net Assets.

 

At January 31, 2019, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

 

D.  Permanent differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of net assets are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. As of period end, permanent differences primarily attributable to the accounting for swap agreements were reclassified between the individual components of total distributable earnings (loss).

Temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) arise when certain items of income, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The differences are primarily related to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and the realization of unrealized gains or losses on certain swap agreements. As of period end, the tax-basis components of total distributable earnings (loss) are detailed in the table as follows:

Basis for Opinions

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of January 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodians and brokers and by agreement to

(e)     (1) Pre-Approval Policies.

In making a determination, the Audit Committee considers whether the services are consistent with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

 

In the event of a contingency situation in which the principal accountant is needed to provide services in between scheduled Audit Committee meetings, the Chairman of the Audit Committee would be called on to consider and, if appropriate, pre-approve audit or permitted non-audit services in an amount sufficient to complete services through the next Audit Committee meeting, and to determine if such services would be consistent with maintaining the accountant’s independence. At the next scheduled Audit Committee meeting, services and fees would be presented to the Audit Committee for formal consideration, and, if appropriate, approval by the entire Audit Committee. The Audit Committee would again consider whether such services and fees are consistent with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

 

The Registrant’s Audit Committee is informed at least annually of all audit and non-audit services provided by the principal accountant to the Vanguard complex, whether such services are provided to: the Registrant, other registered investment companies in the Vanguard complex, The Vanguard Group, Inc., or other entities controlled by The Vanguard Group, Inc. that provide ongoing services to the Registrant.

 

(2) No percentage of the principal accountant’s fees or services were approved pursuant to the waiver provision of paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

 

(f)     For the most recent fiscal year, over 50% of the hours worked under the principal accountant’s engagement were not performed by persons other than full-time, permanent employees of the principal accountant.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Trustees of Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Funds and Shareholders of Vanguard Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund, Vanguard Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund, Vanguard Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund and Vanguard High-Yield Corporate Fund

 

Opinions on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Vanguard Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund and statements of net assets—investments summary of Vanguard Short-Term Investment-Grade Fund, Vanguard Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Fund, Vanguard Long-Term Investment-Grade Fund and Vanguard High-Yield Corporate Fund (four of the funds constituting Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Funds, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of January 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended January 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended January 31, 2019, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended January 31, 2019 (included in Item 1 of this Form N-CSR) and the schedules of investments (included in Item 6 of this Form N-CSR) as of January 31, 2019 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of January 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended January 31, 2019 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended January 31, 2019 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinions

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of January 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodians, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
