Municipal Market Relatively Stable Overall (Ex-Puerto Rico and Chicago) in a Period of Increased Volatility

Broad market index returns for municipal bonds (munis) were mostly positive for the 12 months, primarily a carryover from favorable muni market conditions during the first five months of the reporting period. During those first five months (mostly during late 2014), the muni market was still rebounding after selling off in 2013. The 2014 rebound reflected a favorable combination of constrained inflation, improving U.S. economic and credit conditions, strong demand for yield, relatively low muni issuance, and the unexpected U.S. Treasury market rally.

Positive momentum from 2014 carried into January 2015, then reversed during the next four months. We believe munis struggled from February into June this year due to: 1) low, post-rally muni yields not attracting investors, 2) supply (particularly from refinancing activity) increasing while demand was declining, and 3) the downgrade of Chicago’s debt to high-yield status in May.

Deteriorating credit conditions in Puerto Rico also created headlines as the summer progressed, but the broader muni market became a bastion of stability because of its relatively high overall credit quality. During the last two months of the reporting period, comparative stability in muni market performance played out against a broader global backdrop of increased capital market volatility. This was triggered in part by China’s economic slowdown and by diverging central bank policies as the U.S. Federal Reserve seeks to reduce its monetary stimulus while other central banks are still pursuing theirs at full throttle amid generally soft global growth conditions. We expect more monetary policy divergence between the U.S. and the rest of the world in coming months, accompanied by continued market volatility. This could present both challenges and opportunities for active investment managers. In this environment, we continue to believe in a disciplined, diversified, long-term investment approach, using professionally managed stock and bond portfolios to meet financial goals. We appreciate your continued trust in us.

Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
President and Chief Executive Officer
American Century Investments

Portfolio Commentary

Portfolio Managers: Joseph Gotelli, Alan Kruss, and Steven Permut

Performance Summary

California Long-Term Tax-Free returned 2.86%* for the 12 months ended August 31, 2015. The fund’s benchmark, the Barclays Municipal Bond Index, returned 2.52%. Fund returns reflect operating expenses, while index returns do not.

The fund’s absolute return for the reporting period reflected the positive overall performance of municipal bonds (munis) despite a backdrop of increasing global market volatility. The muni market generally rallied during the first five months of the period, following the U.S. Treasury market higher. Global divergence of central bank policy, whereby the Federal Reserve (the Fed) was scaling back its stimulus programs as other leading central banks were increasing theirs in response to weak growth rates, created an environment in which U.S. Treasury yields were relatively more attractive than government bond yields in Europe and elsewhere. A muted inflation backdrop also aided U.S. bond returns. Furthermore, a combination of factors specific to munis, including generally improving credit conditions among issuers and modest demand for munis in the face of reduced supply, also supported broad muni market gains.

Beginning in February 2015, muni market volatility emerged and persisted into June. Mounting speculation about when the Fed would raise its federal funds rate target pushed interest rates higher, slowing demand for investment-grade fixed-income securities in general. In the muni market, demand subsided (particularly from mutual fund investors) as municipalities boosted issuance of securities ahead of the Fed’s expected interest rate hike, which most investors believed would occur later in 2015. These supply/demand factors suppressed returns. In addition, credit rating agency Moody’s downgraded Chicago’s debt to high-yield status, which put pressure on other muni issuers with large unfunded pension liabilities. Late in the period, concerns about slowing growth in China rocked the global financial markets. Investment-grade munis, which represented a source of relative stability during this market unrest, rebounded in the final two months of the period, benefiting from their quality characteristics and tax benefits.

Overall, strong performance early and late in the period more than offset the weaker results in the middle months. Longer-maturity and lower-quality munis generally fared better than shorter-maturity and the highest-quality securities. Revenue bonds outperformed general obligation (GO) bonds, and California munis generally outperformed national muni benchmarks. The fund’s outperformance versus its benchmark was due primarily to its longer maturity and single-state focus relative to the national benchmark. Security selection also aided results.

Credit Improvements, Particularly in California, Negated Negative Headlines Elsewhere

Despite negative headlines regarding Chicago, Puerto Rico, and other isolated issuers, muni market fundamentals generally remained positive and continued to provide support to the broad market. We believe the problems in Chicago and Puerto Rico are due largely to their own circumstances and should not be viewed as indicative of any particular systemic municipal market problem.

Performance for other share classes will vary due to differences in fee structure; when Investor Class performance exceeds that of the fund's benchmark, other share classes may not.

From a broad fiscal standpoint, state and local finances in California and across the U.S. generally improved due to increased revenue collections and spending constraints. California’s economy gained ground, as indicated by job growth (which exceeded the U.S. average) and real estate gains. Following enactment of California’s 2015-2016 budget, which mandates contributions to the state’s “rainy day” fund and the paydown of previous deficit loans, Standard & Poor’s raised the state’s bond credit rating to “AA-,” its highest level in 14 years.

From a national credit rating perspective, muni credit-rating upgrades outpaced downgrades in the fourth quarter of 2014 and first quarter of 2015. In addition, the national muni default rate remained low. We continue to believe it is unlikely any states will default, but select isolated state, local, and commonwealth credit ratings could be pressured by special circumstances.

Longer Maturity, California Biases Were Main Relative Performance Contributors

Our focus on longer-maturity securities and maintaining a longer duration (price sensitivity to interest rate changes) versus the benchmark was a primary contributor to the fund’s outperformance. In general, longer-term interest rates declined and shorter-term rates increased during the 12-month period. This caused the yield curve to flatten, and longer-maturity/duration securities generally outperformed their shorter-maturity/duration counterparts. We used U.S. Treasury futures as part of our duration strategy.

The portfolio’s California bias compared with the national benchmark and our preference for revenue bonds over GO bonds also aided results. Within the revenue bond sector, we favored lease revenue, special tax, transportation, and hospital bonds. Our selections among certain lower-quality California munis also boosted the fund’s relative performance. Conversely, small positions in select Puerto Rico munis detracted from fund performance. In light of the escalating fiscal challenges facing Puerto Rico, we began reducing the portfolio’s position in the commonwealth’s munis in early 2015. By the end of July, we had exited all Puerto Rico debt. Although we no longer have any direct Puerto Rico exposure, we expect the commonwealth to continue to distract the muni market due to the sheer size and prevalence of its outstanding debt.

Global Market Volatility Likely to Persist

We believe interest rates will increase as the U.S. economy continues to improve, but the time frame for rate normalization may be extended due to weak global growth. Given this backdrop and continued uncertainty about the Fed’s monetary policy strategy, we expect market volatility to persist ahead of any action on short-term interest rates. The near-term effect this backdrop will have on muni supply remains unclear. On one hand, it may increase issuance as municipalities seek to refinance their debt and issue securities before the Fed raises rates significantly higher. On the other hand, it may lead to reduced overall muni supply as issuers have less incentive to refinance as rates rise. We have marginally increased the fund’s credit quality, believing the volatile backdrop may lead to credit spread widening (an increase in the yield differential between higher-quality and lower-quality munis of similar maturity), which would favor higher-quality securities. We expect fundamental credit research, active management, and security selection to become increasingly important as rates normalize.

We continue to monitor the impact of California’s drought on the state economy and individual bond issuers. We do not expect the drought to have a broad impact on the credit ratings of water bond issuers within the state, given the financial strength of most water utilities. With regard to the state economy, the drought could slow growth in more agriculturally oriented areas, but they represent only 2% of California’s diverse economy.

Shareholder Fee Example 

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption/exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2015 to August 31, 2015.

Actual Expenses

The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the share class you own. Then 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 under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century Investments fund, or Institutional Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond Fund, in an American Century Investments account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or retirement plan account), American Century Investments may charge you a $12.50 semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of those shares is less than $10,000. We will redeem shares automatically in one of your accounts to pay the $12.50 fee. In determining your total eligible investment amount, we will include your investments in all personal accounts (including American Century Investments Brokerage accounts) registered under your Social Security number. Personal accounts include individual accounts, joint accounts, UGMA/UTMA accounts, personal trusts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and IRAs (including traditional, Roth, Rollover, SEP-, SARSEP- and SIMPLE-IRAs), and certain other retirement accounts. If you have only business, business retirement, employer-sponsored or American Century Investments Brokerage accounts, you are currently not subject to this fee. If you are subject to the Account Maintenance Fee, your account value could be reduced by the fee amount.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund’s share class. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
 
AUGUST 31, 2015

1. Organization

American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds (the trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company and is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. California Long-Term Tax-Free Fund (the fund) is one fund in a series issued by the trust. The fund is diversified as defined under the 1940 Act. The fund’s investment objectives are to seek safety of principal and high current income that is exempt from federal and California income taxes.

The fund offers the Investor Class, the Institutional Class, the A Class and the C Class. The A Class may incur an initial sales charge. The A Class and C Class may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge. The share classes differ principally in their respective sales charges and distribution and shareholder servicing expenses and arrangements. The Institutional Class is made available to institutional shareholders or through financial intermediaries whose clients do not require the same level of shareholder and administrative services as shareholders of other classes. As a result, the Institutional Class is charged a lower unified management fee.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the fund in preparation of its financial statements. The fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.

Investment Valuations — The fund determines the fair value of its investments and computes its net asset value per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the fund’s investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the fund’s pricing function.

Fixed income securities maturing in greater than 60 days at the time of purchase are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Fixed income securities maturing within 60 days at the time of purchase may be valued at cost, plus or minus any amortized discount or premium or at the evaluated mean as provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated mean prices are commonly derived through utilization of market models, which may consider, among other factors: trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, related sector levels, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information.
 
Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at the settlement price as provided by the appropriate clearing corporation.

If the fund determines that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the fund may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the fund to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.

The fund monitors for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before the fund’s net asset value per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a

23



specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region.
 
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.

Investment Income — Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums.

Segregated Assets — In accordance with the 1940 Act, the fund segregates assets on its books and records to cover certain types of investments, including, but not limited to, futures contracts and when-issued securities. American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the investment advisor) monitors, on a daily basis, the securities segregated to ensure the fund designates a sufficient amount of liquid assets, marked-to-market daily. The fund may also receive assets or be required to pledge assets at the custodian bank or with a broker for margin requirements on futures contracts.

Income Tax Status — It is the fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The fund files U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The fund's tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

Multiple Class — All shares of the fund represent an equal pro rata interest in the net assets of the class to which such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except for class specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only individual classes. Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the fund are allocated to each class of shares based on their relative net assets.

Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually.

Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.

3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties

Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, ACIM, the trust's distributor, American Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS), and the trust's transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC.
 
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the fund with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee) per class. The agreement provides that all expenses of managing and operating the fund, except distribution and service fees, brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of the independent trustees (including legal counsel fees), and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on each class’s daily net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The fee consists of (1) an Investment Category Fee based on the daily net assets of the fund and certain other accounts managed by the investment advisor that are in the same broad investment category as the fund and (2) a Complex Fee based on the assets of all the funds in the American Century Investments family of funds. The rates for the Investment Category Fee range from 0.1625% to 0.2800%. The rates for the Complex Fee range from 0.2500% to 0.3100% for the Investor Class, A Class and C Class. The rates for the Complex Fee range from 0.0500% to 0.1100% for the Institutional Class. The effective annual management fee for each class for the year ended August 31, 2015 was 0.46% for the Investor Class, A Class and C Class and 0.26% for the Institutional Class.
 

24



Distribution and Service Fees — The Board of Trustees has adopted a separate Master Distribution and Individual Shareholder Services Plan for each of the A Class and C Class (collectively the plans), pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. The plans provide that the A Class will pay ACIS an annual distribution and service fee of 0.25%. The plans provide that the C Class will pay ACIS an annual distribution and service fee of 1.00%, of which 0.25% is paid for individual shareholder services and 0.75% is paid for distribution services. The fees are computed and accrued daily based on each class’s daily net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The fees are used to pay financial intermediaries for distribution and individual shareholder services. Fees incurred under the plans during the year ended August 31, 2015 are detailed in the Statement of Operations.

Trustees’ Fees and Expenses — The Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the investment advisor’s management and operations of the fund. The trustees receive detailed information about the fund and its investment advisor regularly throughout the year, and meet at least quarterly with management of the investment advisor to review reports about fund operations. The fund’s officers do not receive compensation from the fund.

6. Fair Value Measurements

The fund’s investments valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the fund. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.

Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.

Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.

Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).

The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments. There were no significant transfers between levels during the period.

As of period end, the fund’s investment securities and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts were classified as Level 2 and Level 1, respectively. The Schedule of Investments provides additional information on the fund’s portfolio holdings.

7. Derivative Instruments

Interest Rate Risk — The fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of bonds generally declines as interest rates rise. A fund may enter into futures contracts based on a bond index or a specific underlying security. A fund may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to increases in market value or sell futures contracts to protect against a decline in market value. Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on its records in amounts sufficient to meet requirements. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized gains and losses. A fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the futures contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts, respectively. One of the risks of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying securities. The fund's average exposure to interest rate risk derivative instruments held during the period was 85 contracts.

The value of interest rate risk derivative instruments as of August 31, 2015, is disclosed on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset of $8,313 in receivable for variation margin on futures contracts.* For the year ended August 31, 2015, the effect of interest rate risk derivative instruments on the Statement of Operations was $(473,245) in net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and $72,365 in change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts.

* Included in the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts as reported in the Schedule of Investments.

8. Risk Factors

The fund concentrates its investments in a single state and therefore may have more exposure to credit risk related to the state of California than a fund with a broader geographical diversification.

9. Federal Tax Information

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 were as follows:
 
2015
2014
Distributions Paid From
 
 
Exempt income
$
11,664,699

$
11,823,725

Taxable ordinary income
$
783


Long-term capital gains



The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.

As of August 31, 2015, the federal tax cost of investments and the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
Federal tax cost of investments
$
306,716,323

Gross tax appreciation of investments
$
32,352,056

Gross tax depreciation of investments
(210,962
)
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments

Undistributed exempt income

Accumulated short-term capital losses
$
(1,442,386
)
Accumulated long-term capital losses
$
(117,576
)
 
 
The cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes. The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts. Other book-to-tax adjustments are attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on straddle positions.

Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. Any unlimited losses will be required to be utilized prior to the losses which carry an expiration date. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations. Capital loss carryovers expire as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds and Shareholders of the California Long-Term Tax-Free Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the California Long-Term Tax-Free Fund (one of the four funds in the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at August 31, 2015, 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 then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2015 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Management

Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office. The board has adopted a mandatory retirement age for trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act (independent trustees). Independent trustees shall retire on December 31 of the year in which they reach their 75th birthday; provided, however, that on or after January 1, 2022, independent trustees shall retire on December 31 of the year in which they reach their 76th birthday.
Mr. Thomas is an “interested person” because he currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent company of American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM or the advisor). The other trustees (more than three-fourths of the total number) are independent. They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM, American Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS) and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The trustees serve in this capacity for eight (in the case of Mr. Thomas, 15) registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds.
The following table presents additional information about the trustees. The mailing address for each trustee other than Mr. Thomas is 1665 Charleston Road, Mountain View, California 94043. The mailing address for Mr. Thomas is 4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64111.

Approval of Management Agreement


At a meeting held on June 16, 2015, the Fund’s Board of Trustees unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for the Fund. Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s directors/trustees, including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year. The Board regards this annual evaluation and renewal as one of its most important responsibilities.

The independent Trustees have memorialized a statement regarding the relationship between their ongoing obligations to oversee and evaluate the performance of the Advisor and their annual consideration of renewal of the management agreement. In that statement, the independent Trustees noted that their assessment of the Advisor’s performance is an ongoing process that takes place over the entire year and is informed by all of the extensive information that the Board and its committees receive and consider over time. This information, together with the materials provided in connection with the review, are central to the Board’s assessment of the Advisor’s performance and its determination whether to renew the Fund’s management agreement.

Prior to its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board requested and reviewed extensive data and analysis relating to the proposed renewal. This information and analysis was compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Fund and the services provided to the Fund by the Advisor.

In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:

the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided by the Advisor to the Fund;
the wide range of other programs and services the Advisor provides to the Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
the investment performance of the Fund, including data comparing the Fund’s performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
the cost of owning the Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
the Advisor’s compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience;
financial data showing the cost of services provided to the Fund, the profitability of the Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of the Fund and other accounts under its management;
data comparing services provided and charges to other investment management clients of the Advisor;
acquired fund fees and expenses;
payments by the Fund and the Advisor to financial intermediaries whose clients are investors in the Fund; and
any collateral benefits derived by the Advisor from the management of the Fund.

In keeping with its practice, the Board held two in-person meetings to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.


34



Factors Considered

The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and the independent Trustees’ independent counsel in connection with the review, and evaluated such information for the Fund. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including the following:

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services - Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of the Fund. The Board noted that under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services including:

constructing and designing the Fund
portfolio research and security selection
initial capitalization/funding
securities trading
Fund administration
custody of Fund assets
daily valuation of the Fund’s portfolio
shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
regulatory and portfolio compliance
financial reporting
marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by the Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)

The Board noted that many of these services have expanded over time both in terms of quantity and complexity in response to shareholder demands, competition in the industry, changing distribution channels, and the changing regulatory environment.

Investment Management, Shareholder, and Other Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Fund is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, the opportunity to easily diversify among asset classes by investing in or exchanging among various American Century Investments funds, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage the Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to seek the best execution of fund trades. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board, directly and through its Portfolio Committee, regularly reviews investment performance information for the Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks and/or peer groups of similarly-managed funds, over different time horizons. The Trustees also review detailed performance information during the management agreement approval process. If performance concerns are identified, the Fund receives special reviews until performance improves, during which the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results (e.g., market conditions, security selection) and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The Fund’s performance was above its benchmark for the three- and five-year periods and below its benchmark for the one- and ten-year periods reviewed by the Board. The Board discussed the Fund’s performance with the Advisor and was satisfied with the efforts being undertaken by the Advisor. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.

Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides the Fund with a comprehensive package of transfer agency, shareholder, and other services. The Board, directly and through various committees of the Board, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction (as measured by external as well as internal sources), technology support, new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities.

Certain aspects of shareholder and transfer agency service level efficiency and the quality of securities trading activities are measured by independent third party providers and are presented in comparison to other fund groups not managed by the Advisor. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to the Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.

Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Fund, its profitability in managing the Fund, its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.

Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to shareholders and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.

Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of the Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is appropriately sharing economies of scale through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business to provide shareholders enhanced and expanded services.

Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that the Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, the fees and expenses of the Fund’s independent Trustees (including their independent legal counsel), and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing, and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. By contrast, most other funds are charged a variety of fees, including an investment advisory fee, a transfer agency fee, an administrative fee, distribution charges, and other expenses. Other than their investment advisory fees and any applicable Rule 12b-1 fees, all other components of the total fees charged by these other funds may be increased without shareholder approval. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider and comparing the Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratio of peer funds. The unified fee charged to shareholders of the Fund was below the median of the total expense ratios of the Fund’s peer universe. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by the Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.

36




Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to advisory clients other than the Fund. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Fund. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Fund were reasonable by comparison.

Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by the Fund and the Advisor. These payments include various payments made by the Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for the Fund.

Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor’s primary business is managing mutual funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that the Advisor receives proprietary research from broker-dealers that execute fund portfolio transactions. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex.

Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Fund’s operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund.

Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees and assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, concluded that the management agreement between the Fund and the Advisor is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and should be renewed.

President’s Letter

Dear Investor:

Thank you for reviewing this annual report for the 12 months ended August 31, 2015. It provides investment performance and portfolio information for the reporting period, plus longer-term historical performance data.

Annual reports remain important vehicles for conveying information about fund returns, including market and economic factors that affected performance during the reporting period. For additional, updated investment and market insights, we encourage you to visit our website, americancentury.com.

Municipal Market Relatively Stable Overall (Ex-Puerto Rico and Chicago) in a Period of Increased Volatility

Broad market index returns for municipal bonds (munis) were mostly positive for the 12 months, primarily a carryover from favorable muni market conditions during the first five months of the reporting period. During those first five months (mostly during late 2014), the muni market was still rebounding after selling off in 2013. The 2014 rebound reflected a favorable combination of constrained inflation, improving U.S. economic and credit conditions, strong demand for yield, relatively low muni issuance, and the unexpected U.S. Treasury market rally.

Positive momentum from 2014 carried into January 2015, then reversed during the next four months. We believe munis struggled from February into June this year due to: 1) low, post-rally muni yields not attracting investors, 2) supply (particularly from refinancing activity) increasing while demand was declining, and 3) the downgrade of Chicago’s debt to high-yield status in May.

Deteriorating credit conditions in Puerto Rico also created headlines as the summer progressed, but the broader muni market became a bastion of stability because of its relatively high overall credit quality. During the last two months of the reporting period, comparative stability in muni market performance played out against a broader global backdrop of increased capital market volatility. This was triggered in part by China’s economic slowdown and by diverging central bank policies as the U.S. Federal Reserve seeks to reduce its monetary stimulus while other central banks are still pursuing theirs at full throttle amid generally soft global growth conditions. We expect more monetary policy divergence between the U.S. and the rest of the world in coming months, accompanied by continued market volatility. This could present both challenges and opportunities for active investment managers. In this environment, we continue to believe in a disciplined, diversified, long-term investment approach, using professionally managed stock and bond portfolios to meet financial goals. We appreciate your continued trust in us.

Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
President and Chief Executive Officer
American Century Investments

Shareholder Fee Example

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption/exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2015 to August 31, 2015.

Actual Expenses

The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the share class you own. Then 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 under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century Investments fund, or Institutional Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond Fund, in an American Century Investments account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or retirement plan account), American Century Investments may charge you a $12.50 semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of those shares is less than $10,000. We will redeem shares automatically in one of your accounts to pay the $12.50 fee. In determining your total eligible investment amount, we will include your investments in all personal accounts (including American Century Investments Brokerage accounts) registered under your Social Security number. Personal accounts include individual accounts, joint accounts, UGMA/UTMA accounts, personal trusts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and IRAs (including traditional, Roth, Rollover, SEP-, SARSEP- and SIMPLE-IRAs), and certain other retirement accounts. If you have only business, business retirement, employer-sponsored or American Century Investments Brokerage accounts, you are currently not subject to this fee. If you are subject to the Account Maintenance Fee, your account value could be reduced by the fee amount.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund’s share class. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
 
AUGUST 31, 2015

1. Organization

American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds (the trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company and is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. California Tax-Free Money Market Fund (the fund) is one fund in a series issued by the trust. The fund is diversified as defined under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. The fund’s investment objectives are to seek safety of principal and high current income that is exempt from federal and California income taxes.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the fund in preparation of its financial statements. The fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.

Investment Valuations — The fund determines the fair value of its investments and computes its net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. Investments are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. If the fund determines that amortized cost does not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
    
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.

Investment Income — Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums.

Income Tax Status — It is the fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The fund files U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The fund's tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. The fund may make short-term capital gains distributions to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The fund does not expect to realize any long-term capital gains, and accordingly, does not expect to pay any long-term capital gains distributions.

Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.


13



3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties

Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM), the trust's distributor, American Century Investment Services, Inc., and the trust's transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC.

Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the fund with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee). The agreement provides that all expenses of managing and operating the fund, except distribution and service fees, brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of the independent trustees (including legal counsel fees), and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of the fund and paid monthly in arrears. The fee consists of (1) an Investment Category Fee based on the daily net assets of the fund and certain other accounts managed by the investment advisor that are in the same broad investment category as the fund and (2) a Complex Fee based on the assets of all the funds in the American Century Investments family of funds. The rates for the Investment Category Fee range from 0.1570% to 0.2700%. The rates for the Complex Fee range from 0.2500% to 0.3100%. In order to maintain a positive yield, ACIM may voluntarily waive a portion of the management fee on a daily basis. The fee waiver may be revised or terminated at any time without notice. The effective annual management fee for the year ended August 31, 2015 was 0.49% before waiver and 0.12% after waiver.

Trustees’ Fees and Expenses — The Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the investment advisor’s management and operations of the fund. The trustees receive detailed information about the fund and its investment advisor regularly throughout the year, and meet at least quarterly with management of the investment advisor to review reports about fund operations. The fund’s officers do not receive compensation from the fund.

4. Fair Value Measurements

The fund’s investments valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the fund. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.

Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.

Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.

Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).

The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments. There were no significant transfers between levels during the period.

As of period end, the fund’s investment securities were classified as Level 2. The Schedule of Investments provides additional information on the fund’s portfolio holdings.

5. Risk Factors

The fund concentrates its investments in a single state and therefore may have more exposure to credit risk related to the state of California than a fund with a broader geographical diversification.


14



6. Federal Tax Information

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 were as follows:
 
2015
2014
Distributions Paid From
 
 
Exempt income
$
20,678

$
22,836

Long-term capital gains



The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.

As of August 31, 2015, the fund had accumulated long-term gains for federal income tax purposes of $704.
 
7. Money Market Fund Reform

In July 2014, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to the rules that govern money market mutual funds. The amendments consist of structural and operational reforms intended to make money market funds more resilient for investors. In response to the amendments to the rules, beginning in the fall of 2016, the board will have the ability to impose a liquidity fee or suspend redemptions in times of severe market stress and the fund will only be available to shareholders who are retail investors. The fund will continue to offer a stable NAV. Management anticipates there will be no changes to the financial statement disclosures.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds and Shareholders of the California Tax-Free Money Market Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the California Tax-Free Money Market Fund (one of the four funds in the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at August 31, 2015, 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 then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2015 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Management

Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office. The board has adopted a mandatory retirement age for trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act (independent trustees). Independent trustees shall retire on December 31 of the year in which they reach their 75th birthday; provided, however, that on or after January 1, 2022, independent trustees shall retire on December 31 of the year in which they reach their 76th birthday.
Mr. Thomas is an “interested person” because he currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent company of American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM or the advisor). The other trustees (more than three-fourths of the total number) are independent. They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM, American Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS) and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The trustees serve in this capacity for eight (in the case of Mr. Thomas, 15) registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds.
The following table presents additional information about the trustees. The mailing address for each trustee other than Mr. Thomas is 1665 Charleston Road, Mountain View, California 94043. The mailing address for Mr. Thomas is 4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64111.

Approval of Management Agreement


At a meeting held on June 16, 2015, the Fund’s Board of Trustees unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for the Fund. Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s directors/trustees, including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year. The Board regards this annual evaluation and renewal as one of its most important responsibilities.

The independent Trustees have memorialized a statement regarding the relationship between their ongoing obligations to oversee and evaluate the performance of the Advisor and their annual consideration of renewal of the management agreement. In that statement, the independent Trustees noted that their assessment of the Advisor’s performance is an ongoing process that takes place over the entire year and is informed by all of the extensive information that the Board and its committees receive and consider over time. This information, together with the materials provided in connection with the review, are central to the Board’s assessment of the Advisor’s performance and its determination whether to renew the Fund’s management agreement.

Prior to its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board requested and reviewed extensive data and analysis relating to the proposed renewal. This information and analysis was compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Fund and the services provided to the Fund by the Advisor.

In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:

the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided by the Advisor to the Fund;
the wide range of other programs and services the Advisor provides to the Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
the investment performance of the Fund, including data comparing the Fund’s performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
the cost of owning the Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
the Advisor’s compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience;
financial data showing the cost of services provided to the Fund, the profitability of the Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of the Fund and other accounts under its management;
data comparing services provided and charges to other investment management clients of the Advisor;
acquired fund fees and expenses;
payments by the Fund and the Advisor to financial intermediaries whose clients are investors in the Fund; and
any collateral benefits derived by the Advisor from the management of the Fund.

In keeping with its practice, the Board held two in-person meetings to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.


21



Factors Considered

The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and the independent Trustees’ independent counsel in connection with the review, and evaluated such information for the Fund. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including the following:

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services - Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of the Fund. The Board noted that under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services including:

constructing and designing the Fund
portfolio research and security selection
initial capitalization/funding
securities trading
Fund administration
custody of Fund assets
daily valuation of the Fund’s portfolio
shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
regulatory and portfolio compliance
financial reporting
marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by the Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)

The Board noted that many of these services have expanded over time both in terms of quantity and complexity in response to shareholder demands, competition in the industry, changing distribution channels, and the changing regulatory environment.

Investment Management, Shareholder, and Other Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Fund is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, the opportunity to easily diversify among asset classes by investing in or exchanging among various American Century Investments funds, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage the Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to seek the best execution of fund trades. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board, directly and through its Portfolio Committee, regularly reviews investment performance information for the Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks and/or peer groups of similarly-managed funds, over different time horizons. The Trustees also review detailed performance information during the management agreement approval process. If performance concerns are identified, the Fund receives special reviews until performance improves, during which the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results (e.g., market conditions, security selection) and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The Fund’s performance was in the first quartile of its peer group for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods reviewed by the Board. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.

Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides the Fund with a comprehensive package of transfer agency, shareholder, and other services. The Board, directly and through various committees of the Board, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular

22



meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction (as measured by external as well as internal sources), technology support, new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities.

Certain aspects of shareholder and transfer agency service level efficiency and the quality of securities trading activities are measured by independent third party providers and are presented in comparison to other fund groups not managed by the Advisor. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to the Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.

Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Fund, its profitability in managing the Fund, its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.

Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to shareholders and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.

Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of the Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is appropriately sharing economies of scale through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business to provide shareholders enhanced and expanded services.

Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that the Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, the fees and expenses of the Fund’s independent Trustees (including their independent legal counsel), and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing, and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. By contrast, most other funds are charged a variety of fees, including an investment advisory fee, a transfer agency fee, an administrative fee, distribution charges, and other expenses. Other than their investment advisory fees and any applicable Rule 12b-1 fees, all other components of the total fees charged by these other funds may be increased without shareholder approval. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider and comparing the Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratio of peer funds. Given the industry-wide proliferation of fee waivers to support positive money market fund yields, the Board recognized that net fee comparisons may be less statistically relevant than in prior years. With that in mind, the Board reviewed peer data both on a gross basis and net of applicable waivers. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by the Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.


23



Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to advisory clients other than the Fund. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Fund. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Fund were reasonable by comparison.

Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by the Fund and the Advisor. These payments include various payments made by the Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for the Fund.

Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor’s primary business is managing mutual funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that the Advisor receives proprietary research from broker-dealers that execute fund portfolio transactions. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex.

Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Fund’s operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund.

Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees and assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, concluded that the management agreement between the Fund and the Advisor is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and should be renewed.

President’s Letter

Dear Investor:

Municipal Market Relatively Stable Overall (Ex-Puerto Rico and Chicago) in a Period of Increased Volatility

Broad market index returns for municipal bonds (munis) were mostly positive for the 12 months, primarily a carryover from favorable muni market conditions during the first five months of the reporting period. During those first five months (mostly during late 2014), the muni market was still rebounding after selling off in 2013. The 2014 rebound reflected a favorable combination of constrained inflation, improving U.S. economic and credit conditions, strong demand for yield, relatively low muni issuance, and the unexpected U.S. Treasury market rally.

Positive momentum from 2014 carried into January 2015, then reversed during the next four months. We believe munis struggled from February into June this year due to: 1) low, post-rally muni yields not attracting investors, 2) supply (particularly from refinancing activity) increasing while demand was declining, and 3) the downgrade of Chicago’s debt to high-yield status in May.

Deteriorating credit conditions in Puerto Rico also created headlines as the summer progressed, but the broader muni market became a bastion of stability because of its relatively high overall credit quality. During the last two months of the reporting period, comparative stability in muni market performance played out against a broader global backdrop of increased capital market volatility. This was triggered in part by China’s economic slowdown and by diverging central bank policies as the U.S. Federal Reserve seeks to reduce its monetary stimulus while other central banks are still pursuing theirs at full throttle amid generally soft global growth conditions. We expect more monetary policy divergence between the U.S. and the rest of the world in coming months, accompanied by continued market volatility. This could present both challenges and opportunities for active investment managers. In this environment, we continue to believe in a disciplined, diversified, long-term investment approach, using professionally managed stock and bond portfolios to meet financial goals. We appreciate your continued trust in us.

Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
President and Chief Executive Officer
American Century Investments

Portfolio Commentary

Portfolio Managers: Joseph Gotelli, Alan Kruss, and Steven Permut


Performance Summary

California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free Bond returned 1.68%* for the 12 months ended August 31, 2015. The fund’s benchmark, the Barclays 7 Year Municipal Bond Index, returned 1.77%. Fund returns reflect operating expenses, while index returns do not.

The fund’s absolute return for the reporting period reflected the positive overall performance of municipal bonds (munis) despite a backdrop of increasing global market volatility. The muni market generally rallied during the first five months of the period, following the U.S. Treasury market higher. Global divergence of central bank policy, whereby the Federal Reserve (the Fed) was scaling back its stimulus programs as other leading central banks were increasing theirs in response to weak growth rates, created an environment in which U.S. Treasury yields were relatively more attractive than government bond yields in Europe and elsewhere. A muted inflation backdrop also aided U.S. bond returns. Furthermore, a combination of factors specific to munis, including generally improving credit conditions among issuers and modest demand for munis in the face of reduced supply, also supported broad muni market gains.

Beginning in February 2015, muni market volatility emerged and persisted into June. Mounting speculation about when the Fed would raise its federal funds rate target pushed interest rates higher, slowing demand for investment-grade fixed-income securities in general. In the muni market, demand subsided (particularly from mutual fund investors) as municipalities boosted issuance of securities ahead of the Fed’s expected interest rate hike, which most investors believed would occur later in 2015. These supply/demand factors suppressed returns. In addition, credit rating agency Moody’s downgraded Chicago’s debt to high-yield status, which put pressure on other muni issuers with large unfunded pension liabilities. Late in the period, concerns about slowing growth in China rocked the global financial markets. Investment-grade munis, which represented a source of relative stability during this market unrest, rebounded in the final two months of the period, benefiting from their quality characteristics and tax benefits.

Overall, strong performance early and late in the period more than offset the weaker results in the middle months. Longer-maturity and lower-quality munis generally fared better than shorter-maturity and the highest-quality securities. Revenue bonds outperformed general obligation (GO) bonds, and California munis generally outperformed national muni benchmarks. The fund’s underperformance versus its benchmark was due primarily to our shorter duration (less price sensitivity to interest rate changes) early in the period and our limited exposure to Puerto Rico. These factors are detailed on page 6.

Credit Improvements, Particularly in California, Negated Negative Headlines Elsewhere

Despite negative headlines regarding Chicago, Puerto Rico, and other isolated issuers, muni market fundamentals generally remained positive and continued to provide support to the broad market. We believe the problems in Chicago and Puerto Rico are due largely to their own circumstances and should not be viewed as indicative of any particular systemic municipal market problem.

See page 3 for returns for all share classes.

From a broad fiscal standpoint, state and local finances in California and across the U.S. generally improved due to increased revenue collections and spending constraints. California’s economy gained ground, as indicated by job growth (which exceeded the U.S. average) and real estate gains. Following enactment of California’s 2015-2016 budget, which mandates contributions to the state’s “rainy day” fund and the paydown of previous deficit loans, Standard & Poor’s raised the state’s bond credit rating to “AA-,” its highest level in 14 years.

From a national credit rating perspective, muni credit-rating upgrades outpaced downgrades in the fourth quarter of 2014 and first quarter of 2015. In addition, the national muni default rate remained low. We continue to believe it is unlikely any states will default, but select isolated state, local, and commonwealth credit ratings could be pressured by special circumstances.

Short Duration Was Main Relative Performance Detractor; Security Selection Was Mixed

Early in the reporting period, we expected improving economic data and the Fed’s October 2014 conclusion of its bond purchase program to push interest rates higher. This prompted us to initiate a shorter-than-benchmark duration. We used U.S. Treasury futures as part of this duration strategy. But longer-term interest rates defied investor expectations and declined during that time frame, causing our duration strategy to detract from relative performance. With global and technical factors, rather than U.S. economic fundamentals, influencing the interest rate environment, we extended the portfolio’s duration to a neutral position by the end of 2014.

Meanwhile, security selection produced mixed results relative to the benchmark. In addition to the portfolio’s California bias compared with the national benchmark, our preference for revenue bonds over GO bonds generally aided results. Within the revenue sector, we favored lease revenue, special tax, transportation, and hospital bonds. Conversely, small positions in select Puerto Rico munis detracted from fund performance. In light of the escalating fiscal challenges facing Puerto Rico, we began reducing the portfolio’s position in the commonwealth’s munis in early 2015. By the end of July, we had exited all Puerto Rico debt. Although we no longer have any direct Puerto Rico exposure, we expect the commonwealth to continue to distract the muni market due to the sheer size and prevalence of its outstanding debt.

Global Market Volatility Likely to Persist

We believe interest rates will increase as the U.S. economy continues to improve, but the time frame for rate normalization may be extended due to weak global growth. Given this backdrop and continued uncertainty about the Fed’s monetary policy strategy, we expect market volatility to persist ahead of any action on short-term interest rates. The near-term effect this backdrop will have on muni supply remains unclear. On one hand, it may increase issuance as municipalities seek to refinance their debt and issue securities before the Fed raises rates significantly higher. On the other hand, it may lead to reduced overall muni supply as issuers have less incentive to refinance as rates rise. We have marginally increased the fund’s credit quality, believing the volatile backdrop may lead to credit spread widening (an increase in the yield differential between higher-quality and lower-quality munis of similar maturity), which would favor higher-quality securities. We expect fundamental credit research, active management, and security selection to become increasingly important as rates normalize.

We continue to monitor the impact of California’s drought on the state economy and individual bond issuers. We do not expect the drought to have a broad impact on the credit ratings of water bond issuers within the state, given the financial strength of most water utilities. With regard to the state economy, the drought could slow growth in more agriculturally oriented areas, but they represent only 2% of California’s diverse economy.

Shareholder Fee Example
 
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption/exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2015 to August 31, 2015.

Actual Expenses

The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the share class you own. Then 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 under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century Investments fund, or Institutional Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond Fund, in an American Century Investments account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or retirement plan account), American Century Investments may charge you a $12.50 semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of those shares is less than $10,000. We will redeem shares automatically in one of your accounts to pay the $12.50 fee. In determining your total eligible investment amount, we will include your investments in all personal accounts (including American Century Investments Brokerage accounts) registered under your Social Security number. Personal accounts include individual accounts, joint accounts, UGMA/UTMA accounts, personal trusts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and IRAs (including traditional, Roth, Rollover, SEP-, SARSEP- and SIMPLE-IRAs), and certain other retirement accounts. If you have only business, business retirement, employer-sponsored or American Century Investments Brokerage accounts, you are currently not subject to this fee. If you are subject to the Account Maintenance Fee, your account value could be reduced by the fee amount.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund’s share class. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
 
AUGUST 31, 2015

1. Organization

American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds (the trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company and is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free Bond Fund (the fund) is one fund in a series issued by the trust. The fund is diversified as defined under the 1940 Act. The fund’s investment objectives are to seek safety of principal and high current income that is exempt from federal and California income taxes.

The fund offers the Investor Class, the Institutional Class, the A Class and the C Class. The A Class may incur an initial sales charge. The A Class and C Class may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge. The share classes differ principally in their respective sales charges and distribution and shareholder servicing expenses and arrangements. The Institutional Class is made available to institutional shareholders or through financial intermediaries whose clients do not require the same level of shareholder and administrative services as shareholders of other classes. As a result, the Institutional Class is charged a lower unified management fee.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the fund in preparation of its financial statements. The fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.

Investment Valuations — The fund determines the fair value of its investments and computes its net asset value per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the fund’s investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the fund’s pricing function.

Fixed income securities maturing in greater than 60 days at the time of purchase are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Fixed income securities maturing within 60 days at the time of purchase may be valued at cost, plus or minus any amortized discount or premium or at the evaluated mean as provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated mean prices are commonly derived through utilization of market models, which may consider, among other factors: trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, related sector levels, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information.
 
Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at the settlement price as provided by the appropriate clearing corporation.

If the fund determines that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the fund may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the fund to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.


35



The fund monitors for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before the fund’s net asset value per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region.
 
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.

Investment Income — Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums.

Segregated Assets — In accordance with the 1940 Act, the fund segregates assets on its books and records to cover certain types of investments, including, but not limited to, futures contracts and when-issued securities. American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the investment advisor) monitors, on a daily basis, the securities segregated to ensure the fund designates a sufficient amount of liquid assets, marked-to-market daily. The fund may also receive assets or be required to pledge assets at the custodian bank or with a broker for margin requirements on futures contracts.

Income Tax Status — It is the fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The fund files U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The fund's tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

Multiple Class — All shares of the fund represent an equal pro rata interest in the net assets of the class to which such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except for class specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only individual classes. Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the fund are allocated to each class of shares based on their relative net assets.

Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually.

Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.

3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties

Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, ACIM, the trust's distributor, American Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS), and the trust's transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC.
 
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the fund with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee) per class. The agreement provides that all expenses of managing and operating the fund, except distribution and service fees, brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of the independent trustees (including legal counsel fees), and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on each class’s daily net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The fee consists of (1) an Investment Category Fee based on the daily net assets of the fund and certain other accounts managed by the investment advisor that are in the same broad investment category as the fund and (2) a Complex Fee based on the assets of all the funds in the American Century Investments family of funds. The rates for the Investment Category Fee range from 0.1625% to 0.2800%. The rates for the Complex Fee range from 0.2500% to 0.3100% for the Investor Class, A Class and C Class. The rates for the Complex Fee range from 0.0500% to 0.1100% for the Institutional Class. The effective annual management fee for each

36



class for the year ended August 31, 2015 was 0.46% for the Investor Class, A Class and C Class and 0.26% for the Institutional Class.

Distribution and Service Fees — The Board of Trustees has adopted a separate Master Distribution and Individual Shareholder Services Plan for each of the A Class and C Class (collectively the plans), pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. The plans provide that the A Class will pay ACIS an annual distribution and service fee of 0.25%. The plans provide that the C Class will pay ACIS an annual distribution and service fee of 1.00%, of which 0.25% is paid for individual shareholder services and 0.75% is paid for distribution services. The fees are computed and accrued daily based on each class’s daily net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The fees are used to pay financial intermediaries for distribution and individual shareholder services. Fees incurred under the plans during the year ended August 31, 2015 are detailed in the Statement of Operations.

Trustees’ Fees and Expenses — The Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the investment advisor’s management and operations of the fund. The trustees receive detailed information about the fund and its investment advisor regularly throughout the year, and meet at least quarterly with management of the investment advisor to review reports about fund operations. The fund’s officers do not receive compensation from the fund.

4. Investment Transactions

Purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term investments, for the year ended August 31, 2015 were $625,695,374 and $421,838,344, respectively.

6. Fair Value Measurements

The fund’s investments valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the fund. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.

Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.

Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.

Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).

The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments. There were no significant transfers between levels during the period.

As of period end, the fund’s investment securities were classified as Level 2. The Schedule of Investments provides additional information on the fund’s portfolio holdings.

7. Derivative Instruments

Interest Rate Risk — The fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of bonds generally declines as interest rates rise. A fund may enter into futures contracts based on a bond index or a specific underlying security. A fund may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to increases in market value or sell futures contracts to protect against a decline in market value. Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on its records in amounts sufficient to meet requirements. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized gains and losses. A fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the futures contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts, respectively. One of the risks of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying securities. The fund's average exposure to interest rate risk derivative instruments held during the period was 270 contracts.

At period end, the fund did not have any derivative instruments disclosed on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For the year ended August 31, 2015, the effect of interest rate risk derivative instruments on the Statement of Operations was $(1,714,522) in net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and $340,296 in change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts.

8. Risk Factors

The fund concentrates its investments in a single state and therefore may have more exposure to credit risk related to the state of California than a fund with a broader geographical diversification.

9. Federal Tax Information

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 were as follows:

The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.

As of August 31, 2015, the federal tax cost of investments and the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
Federal tax cost of investments
$
1,414,472,825

Gross tax appreciation of investments
$
77,220,872

Gross tax depreciation of investments
(1,106,320
)
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments
76,114,552

Net tax appreciation (depreciation) on derivatives

Net tax appreciation (depreciation)
$
76,114,552

Other book-to-tax adjustments
$
(37,391
)
Undistributed exempt income

Accumulated short-term capital losses
$
(4,461,809
)
Accumulated long-term capital losses
$
(6,622,789
)

The cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes. Other book-to-tax adjustments are attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on straddle positions.

Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The capital loss carryovers may be carried forward for an unlimited period. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds and Shareholders of the California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free Bond Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free Bond Fund (one of the four funds in the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at August 31, 2015, 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 then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2015 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Management

Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office. The board has adopted a mandatory retirement age for trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act (independent trustees). Independent trustees shall retire on December 31 of the year in which they reach their 75th birthday; provided, however, that on or after January 1, 2022, independent trustees shall retire on December 31 of the year in which they reach their 76th birthday.
Mr. Thomas is an “interested person” because he currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent company of American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM or the advisor). The other trustees (more than three-fourths of the total number) are independent. They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM, American Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS) and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The trustees serve in this capacity for eight (in the case of Mr. Thomas, 15) registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds.
The following table presents additional information about the trustees. The mailing address for each trustee other than Mr. Thomas is 1665 Charleston Road, Mountain View, California 94043. The mailing address for Mr. Thomas is 4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64111.

Approval of Management Agreement


At a meeting held on June 16, 2015, the Fund’s Board of Trustees unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for the Fund. Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s directors/trustees, including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year. The Board regards this annual evaluation and renewal as one of its most important responsibilities.

The independent Trustees have memorialized a statement regarding the relationship between their ongoing obligations to oversee and evaluate the performance of the Advisor and their annual consideration of renewal of the management agreement. In that statement, the independent Trustees noted that their assessment of the Advisor’s performance is an ongoing process that takes place over the entire year and is informed by all of the extensive information that the Board and its committees receive and consider over time. This information, together with the materials provided in connection with the review, are central to the Board’s assessment of the Advisor’s performance and its determination whether to renew the Fund’s management agreement.

Prior to its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board requested and reviewed extensive data and analysis relating to the proposed renewal. This information and analysis was compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Fund and the services provided to the Fund by the Advisor.

In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:

the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided by the Advisor to the Fund;
the wide range of other programs and services the Advisor provides to the Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
the investment performance of the Fund, including data comparing the Fund’s performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
the cost of owning the Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
the Advisor’s compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience;
financial data showing the cost of services provided to the Fund, the profitability of the Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of the Fund and other accounts under its management;
data comparing services provided and charges to other investment management clients of the Advisor;
acquired fund fees and expenses;
payments by the Fund and the Advisor to financial intermediaries whose clients are investors in the Fund; and
any collateral benefits derived by the Advisor from the management of the Fund.

In keeping with its practice, the Board held two in-person meetings to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.


46



Factors Considered

The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and the independent Trustees’ independent counsel in connection with the review, and evaluated such information for the Fund. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including the following:

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services - Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of the Fund. The Board noted that under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services including:

constructing and designing the Fund
portfolio research and security selection
initial capitalization/funding
securities trading
Fund administration
custody of Fund assets
daily valuation of the Fund’s portfolio
shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
regulatory and portfolio compliance
financial reporting
marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by the Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)

The Board noted that many of these services have expanded over time both in terms of quantity and complexity in response to shareholder demands, competition in the industry, changing distribution channels, and the changing regulatory environment.

Investment Management, Shareholder, and Other Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Fund is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, the opportunity to easily diversify among asset classes by investing in or exchanging among various American Century Investments funds, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage the Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to seek the best execution of fund trades. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board, directly and through its Portfolio Committee, regularly reviews investment performance information for the Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks and/or peer groups of similarly-managed funds, over different time horizons. The Trustees also review detailed performance information during the management agreement approval process. If performance concerns are identified, the Fund receives special reviews until performance improves, during which the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results (e.g., market conditions, security selection) and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The Fund’s performance was below its benchmark for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods reviewed by the Board. The Board discussed the Fund’s performance with the Advisor and was satisfied with the efforts being undertaken by the Advisor. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.

Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides the Fund with a comprehensive package of transfer agency, shareholder, and other services. The Board, directly and through various

47



committees of the Board, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction (as measured by external as well as internal sources), technology support, new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities.

Certain aspects of shareholder and transfer agency service level efficiency and the quality of securities trading activities are measured by independent third party providers and are presented in comparison to other fund groups not managed by the Advisor. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to the Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.

Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Fund, its profitability in managing the Fund, its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.

Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to shareholders and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.

Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of the Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is appropriately sharing economies of scale through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business to provide shareholders enhanced and expanded services.

Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that the Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, the fees and expenses of the Fund’s independent Trustees (including their independent legal counsel), and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing, and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. By contrast, most other funds are charged a variety of fees, including an investment advisory fee, a transfer agency fee, an administrative fee, distribution charges, and other expenses. Other than their investment advisory fees and any applicable Rule 12b-1 fees, all other components of the total fees charged by these other funds may be increased without shareholder approval. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider and comparing the Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratio of peer funds. The unified fee charged to shareholders of the Fund was below the median of the total expense ratios of the Fund’s peer group. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by the Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.


48



Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to advisory clients other than the Fund. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Fund. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Fund were reasonable by comparison.

Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by the Fund and the Advisor. These payments include various payments made by the Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for the Fund.

Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor’s primary business is managing mutual funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that the Advisor receives proprietary research from broker-dealers that execute fund portfolio transactions. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex.

Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Fund’s operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund.

Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees and assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, concluded that the management agreement between the Fund and the Advisor is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and should be renewed.

Municipal Market Relatively Stable Overall (Ex-Puerto Rico and Chicago) in a Period of Increased Volatility

Broad market index returns for municipal bonds (munis) were mostly positive for the 12 months, primarily a carryover from favorable muni market conditions during the first five months of the reporting period. During those first five months (mostly during late 2014), the muni market was still rebounding after selling off in 2013. The 2014 rebound reflected a favorable combination of constrained inflation, improving U.S. economic and credit conditions, strong demand for yield, relatively low muni issuance, and the unexpected U.S. Treasury market rally.

Positive momentum from 2014 carried into January 2015, then reversed during the next four months. We believe munis struggled from February into June this year due to: 1) low, post-rally muni yields not attracting investors, 2) supply (particularly from refinancing activity) increasing while demand was declining, and 3) the downgrade of Chicago’s debt to high-yield status in May.

Deteriorating credit conditions in Puerto Rico also created headlines as the summer progressed, but the broader muni market became a bastion of stability because of its relatively high overall credit quality. During the last two months of the reporting period, comparative stability in muni market performance played out against a broader global backdrop of increased capital market volatility. This was triggered in part by China’s economic slowdown and by diverging central bank policies as the U.S. Federal Reserve seeks to reduce its monetary stimulus while other central banks are still pursuing theirs at full throttle amid generally soft global growth conditions. We expect more monetary policy divergence between the U.S. and the rest of the world in coming months, accompanied by continued market volatility. This could present both challenges and opportunities for active investment managers. In this environment, we continue to believe in a disciplined, diversified, long-term investment approach, using professionally managed stock and bond portfolios to meet financial goals. We appreciate your continued trust in us.

Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
President and Chief Executive Officer
American Century Investments

Portfolio Commentary

Portfolio Managers: Alan Kruss, Joseph Gotelli, and Steven Permut

Performance Summary

California High-Yield Municipal returned 4.32%* for the 12 months ended August 31, 2015. The fund’s national investment-grade benchmark, the Barclays Municipal Bond Index, returned 2.52%.

The fund’s absolute return reflected the positive overall performance of California municipal bonds (munis) despite a backdrop of increasing global market volatility. The muni market generally rallied during the first five months of the period, following the U.S. Treasury market higher. Global divergence of central bank policy, whereby the Federal Reserve (the Fed) was scaling back its stimulus programs as other leading central banks were increasing theirs in response to weak growth rates, created an environment in which U.S. Treasury yields were relatively more attractive than government bond yields in Europe and elsewhere. A muted inflation backdrop also aided U.S. bond returns. Furthermore, a combination of factors specific to munis, including generally improving credit conditions among issuers and modest demand for munis in the face of reduced supply, also supported broad muni market gains, particularly high-yield munis.

Beginning in February 2015, muni market volatility emerged and persisted into June. Mounting speculation about when the Fed would raise its federal funds rate target pushed interest rates higher, slowing demand for investment-grade fixed-income securities in general. In the muni market, demand subsided (particularly from mutual fund investors) as municipalities boosted issuance of securities ahead of the Fed’s expected interest rate hike, which most investors believed would occur later in 2015. These supply/demand factors suppressed returns. In addition, credit rating agency Moody’s downgraded Chicago’s debt to high-yield status, which put pressure on other muni issuers with large unfunded pension liabilities. Late in the period, concerns about slowing growth in China rocked the global financial markets. Investment-grade munis, which represented a source of relative stability during this market unrest, rebounded in the final two months of the period, benefiting from their quality characteristics and tax benefits.

Overall, strong performance early and late in the period more than offset the weaker results in the middle months. Longer-maturity and lower-quality munis generally fared better than shorter-maturity and the highest-quality securities. Revenue bonds outperformed general obligation (GO) bonds, and California munis generally outperformed national muni benchmarks. The fund’s outperformance versus its benchmark was due primarily to its single-state focus and longer duration (price sensitivity to interest rate changes) relative to the national benchmark. Security selection within the California high-yield muni universe also aided results.

Credit Improvements, Particularly in California, Negated Negative Headlines Elsewhere

Despite negative headlines regarding Chicago, Puerto Rico, and other isolated issuers, muni market fundamentals generally remained positive and continued to provide support to the broad market. We believe the problems in Chicago and Puerto Rico are due largely to their own circumstances and should not be viewed as indicative of any particular systemic municipal market problem.

From a broad fiscal standpoint, state and local finances in California and across the U.S. generally improved due to increased revenue collections and spending constraints. California’s economy gained ground, as indicated by job growth (which exceeded the U.S. average) and real estate gains. Following enactment of California’s 2015-2016 budget, which mandates contributions to the state’s “rainy day” fund and the paydown of previous deficit loans, Standard & Poor’s raised the state’s bond credit rating to “AA-,” its highest level in 14 years.

From a national credit rating perspective, muni credit-rating upgrades outpaced downgrades in the fourth quarter of 2014 and first quarter of 2015. In addition, the national muni default rate remained low. We continue to believe it is unlikely any states will default, but select isolated state, local, and commonwealth credit ratings could be pressured by special circumstances.

California Bias, Security Selection, Longer Duration Were Main Relative Performance Contributors

The portfolio’s California bias compared with the national benchmark and our preference for revenue bonds over GO bonds contributed to the fund’s outperformance. Within the revenue sector, we favored special tax, transportation, and lease revenue bonds.

Our focus on longer-maturity securities and maintaining a longer duration versus the benchmark also contributed to the fund’s outperformance. In general, longer-term interest rates declined and shorter-term rates increased during the 12-month period. This caused the yield curve to flatten, and longer-maturity/duration securities generally outperformed their shorter-maturity/duration counterparts. We used U.S. Treasury futures as part of our duration strategy.

Meanwhile, small positions in select Puerto Rico munis detracted from fund performance. In light of the escalating fiscal challenges facing Puerto Rico, we began reducing the portfolio’s position in the commonwealth’s munis in early 2015. By the end of July, we had exited all Puerto Rico debt. Although we no longer have any direct Puerto Rico exposure, we expect the commonwealth to continue to distract the muni market due to the sheer size and prevalence of its outstanding debt.

Global Market Volatility Likely to Persist

We believe interest rates will increase as the U.S. economy continues to improve, but the time frame for rate normalization may be extended due to weak global growth. Given this backdrop and continued uncertainty about the Fed’s monetary policy strategy, we expect market volatility to persist ahead of any action on short-term interest rates. The near-term effect this backdrop will have on muni supply remains unclear. On one hand, it may increase issuance as municipalities seek to refinance their debt and issue securities before the Fed raises rates significantly higher. On the other hand, it may lead to reduced overall muni supply as issuers have less incentive to refinance as rates rise. We believe the volatile backdrop may lead to credit spread widening (an increase in the yield differential between higher-quality and lower-quality munis of similar maturity), which may reveal compelling buying opportunities among lower-quality credits. We expect fundamental credit research, active management, and security selection to become increasingly important as rates normalize.

We continue to monitor the impact of California’s drought on the state economy and individual bond issuers. We do not expect the drought to have a broad impact on the credit ratings of water bond issuers within the state, given the financial strength of most water utilities. With regard to the state economy, the drought could slow growth in more agriculturally oriented areas, but they represent only 2% of California’s diverse economy.

Shareholder Fee Example

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption/exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2015 to August 31, 2015.

Actual Expenses

The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the share class you own. Then 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 under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century Investments fund, or Institutional Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond Fund, in an American Century Investments account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or retirement plan account), American Century Investments may charge you a $12.50 semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of those shares is less than $10,000. We will redeem shares automatically in one of your accounts to pay the $12.50 fee. In determining your total eligible investment amount, we will include your investments in all personal accounts (including American Century Investments Brokerage accounts) registered under your Social Security number. Personal accounts include individual accounts, joint accounts, UGMA/UTMA accounts, personal trusts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and IRAs (including traditional, Roth, Rollover, SEP-, SARSEP- and SIMPLE-IRAs), and certain other retirement accounts. If you have only business, business retirement, employer-sponsored or American Century Investments Brokerage accounts, you are currently not subject to this fee. If you are subject to the Account Maintenance Fee, your account value could be reduced by the fee amount.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund’s share class. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
 
AUGUST 31, 2015

1. Organization

American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds (the trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company and is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. California High-Yield Municipal Fund (the fund) is one fund in a series issued by the trust. The fund is nondiversified as defined under the 1940 Act. The fund’s investment objective is to seek high current income that is exempt from federal and California income taxes.

The fund offers the Investor Class, the Institutional Class, the A Class and the C Class. The A Class may incur an initial sales charge. The A Class and C Class may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge. The share classes differ principally in their respective sales charges and distribution and shareholder servicing expenses and arrangements. The Institutional Class is made available to institutional shareholders or through financial intermediaries whose clients do not require the same level of shareholder and administrative services as shareholders of other classes. As a result, the Institutional Class is charged a lower unified management fee.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the fund in preparation of its financial statements. The fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.

Investment Valuations — The fund determines the fair value of its investments and computes its net asset value per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the fund’s investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the fund’s pricing function.

Fixed income securities maturing in greater than 60 days at the time of purchase are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Fixed income securities maturing within 60 days at the time of purchase may be valued at cost, plus or minus any amortized discount or premium or at the evaluated mean as provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated mean prices are commonly derived through utilization of market models, which may consider, among other factors: trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, related sector levels, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information.
 
Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at the settlement price as provided by the appropriate clearing corporation.

If the fund determines that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the fund may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the fund to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.

The fund monitors for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before the fund’s net asset value per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a

27



specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region.
 
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.

Investment Income — Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums.

Segregated Assets — In accordance with the 1940 Act, the fund segregates assets on its books and records to cover certain types of investments, including, but not limited to, futures contracts and when-issued securities. American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the investment advisor) monitors, on a daily basis, the securities segregated to ensure the fund designates a sufficient amount of liquid assets, marked-to-market daily. The fund may also receive assets or be required to pledge assets at the custodian bank or with a broker for margin requirements on futures contracts.

Income Tax Status — It is the fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The fund files U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The fund's tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

Multiple Class — All shares of the fund represent an equal pro rata interest in the net assets of the class to which such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except for class specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only individual classes. Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the fund are allocated to each class of shares based on their relative net assets.

Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually.

Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.

3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties

Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, ACIM, the trust's distributor, American Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS), and the trust's transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC.
 
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the fund with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee) per class. The agreement provides that all expenses of managing and operating the fund, except distribution and service fees, brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of the independent trustees (including legal counsel fees), and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on each class’s daily net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The fee consists of (1) an Investment Category Fee based on the daily net assets of the fund and certain other accounts managed by the investment advisor that are in the same broad investment category as the fund and (2) a Complex Fee based on the assets of all the funds in the American Century Investments family of funds. The rates for the Investment Category Fee range from 0.1925% to 0.3100%. The rates for the Complex Fee range from 0.2500% to 0.3100% for the Investor Class, A Class and C Class. The rates for the Complex Fee range from 0.0500% to 0.1100% for the Institutional Class. The effective annual management fee for each class for the year ended August 31, 2015 was 0.49% for the Investor Class, A Class and C Class and 0.29% for the Institutional Class.


28



Distribution and Service Fees — The Board of Trustees has adopted a separate Master Distribution and Individual Shareholder Services Plan for each of the A Class and C Class (collectively the plans), pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. The plans provide that the A Class will pay ACIS an annual distribution and service fee of 0.25%. The plans provide that the C Class will pay ACIS an annual distribution and service fee of 1.00%, of which 0.25% is paid for individual shareholder services and 0.75% is paid for distribution services. The fees are computed and accrued daily based on each class’s daily net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The fees are used to pay financial intermediaries for distribution and individual shareholder services. Fees incurred under the plans during the year ended August 31, 2015 are detailed in the Statement of Operations.

Trustees’ Fees and Expenses — The Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the investment advisor’s management and operations of the fund. The trustees receive detailed information about the fund and its investment advisor regularly throughout the year, and meet at least quarterly with management of the investment advisor to review reports about fund operations. The fund’s officers do not receive compensation from the fund.

6. Fair Value Measurements

The fund’s investments valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the fund. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.

Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.

Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.

Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).

The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments. There were no significant transfers between levels during the period.

As of period end, the fund’s investment securities and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts were classified as Level 2 and Level 1, respectively. The Schedule of Investments provides additional information on the fund’s portfolio holdings.

7. Derivative Instruments

Interest Rate Risk — The fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of bonds generally declines as interest rates rise. A fund may enter into futures contracts based on a bond index or a specific underlying security. A fund may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to increases in market value or sell futures contracts to protect against a decline in market value. Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on its records in amounts sufficient to meet requirements. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized gains and losses. A fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the futures contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts, respectively. One of the risks of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying securities. The fund's average exposure to interest rate risk derivative instruments held during the period was 358 contracts.

The value of interest rate risk derivative instruments as of August 31, 2015, is disclosed on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset of $29,938 in receivable for variation margin on futures contracts.* For the year ended August 31, 2015, the effect of interest rate risk derivative instruments on the Statement of Operations was $(573,036) in net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and $188,044 in change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts.

* Included in the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts as reported in the Schedule of Investments.

8. Risk Factors

The fund concentrates its investments in a single state and therefore may have more exposure to credit risk related to the state of California than a fund with a broader geographical diversification. The fund invests in lower-rated debt securities, which are subject to substantial risks including liquidity risk and credit risk.

9. Federal Tax Information

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 were as follows:
 
2015
2014
Distributions Paid From
 
 
Exempt income
$
31,004,444

$
28,094,462

Taxable ordinary income
$
47,808

$
12,582

Long-term capital gains



The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.

As of August 31, 2015, the federal tax cost of investments and the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
Federal tax cost of investments
$
796,278,126

Gross tax appreciation of investments
$
56,644,592

Gross tax depreciation of investments
(2,191,071

Accumulated short-term capital losses
$
(36,306,087
)
Accumulated long-term capital losses
$
(6,499,020
)
 
 
The cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes. The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts. Other book-to-tax adjustments are attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on straddle positions.

Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. Any unlimited losses will be required to be utilized prior to the losses which carry an expiration date. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations. Capital loss carryovers expire as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds and Shareholders of the California High-Yield Municipal Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the California High-Yield Municipal Fund (one of the four funds in the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at August 31, 2015, 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 then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2015 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Management

Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office. The board has adopted a mandatory retirement age for trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act (independent trustees). Independent trustees shall retire on December 31 of the year in which they reach their 75th birthday; provided, however, that on or after January 1, 2022, independent trustees shall retire on December 31 of the year in which they reach their 76th birthday.
Mr. Thomas is an “interested person” because he currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent company of American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM or the advisor). The other trustees (more than three-fourths of the total number) are independent. They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM, American Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS) and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The trustees serve in this capacity for eight (in the case of Mr. Thomas, 15) registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds.
The following table presents additional information about the trustees. The mailing address for each trustee other than Mr. Thomas is 1665 Charleston Road, Mountain View, California 94043. The mailing address for Mr. Thomas is 4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64111.

Approval of Management Agreement


At a meeting held on June 16, 2015, the Fund’s Board of Trustees unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for the Fund. Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s directors/trustees, including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year. The Board regards this annual evaluation and renewal as one of its most important responsibilities.

The independent Trustees have memorialized a statement regarding the relationship between their ongoing obligations to oversee and evaluate the performance of the Advisor and their annual consideration of renewal of the management agreement. In that statement, the independent Trustees noted that their assessment of the Advisor’s performance is an ongoing process that takes place over the entire year and is informed by all of the extensive information that the Board and its committees receive and consider over time. This information, together with the materials provided in connection with the review, are central to the Board’s assessment of the Advisor’s performance and its determination whether to renew the Fund’s management agreement.

Prior to its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board requested and reviewed extensive data and analysis relating to the proposed renewal. This information and analysis was compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Fund and the services provided to the Fund by the Advisor.

In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:

the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided by the Advisor to the Fund;
the wide range of other programs and services the Advisor provides to the Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
the investment performance of the Fund, including data comparing the Fund’s performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
the cost of owning the Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
the Advisor’s compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience;
financial data showing the cost of services provided to the Fund, the profitability of the Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of the Fund and other accounts under its management;
data comparing services provided and charges to other investment management clients of the Advisor;
acquired fund fees and expenses;
payments by the Fund and the Advisor to financial intermediaries whose clients are investors in the Fund; and
any collateral benefits derived by the Advisor from the management of the Fund.

In keeping with its practice, the Board held two in-person meetings to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.


38



Factors Considered

The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and the independent Trustees’ independent counsel in connection with the review, and evaluated such information for the Fund. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including the following:

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services - Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of the Fund. The Board noted that under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services including:

constructing and designing the Fund
portfolio research and security selection
initial capitalization/funding
securities trading
Fund administration
custody of Fund assets
daily valuation of the Fund’s portfolio
shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
regulatory and portfolio compliance
financial reporting
marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by the Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)

The Board noted that many of these services have expanded over time both in terms of quantity and complexity in response to shareholder demands, competition in the industry, changing distribution channels, and the changing regulatory environment.

Investment Management, Shareholder, and Other Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Fund is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, the opportunity to easily diversify among asset classes by investing in or exchanging among various American Century Investments funds, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage the Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to seek the best execution of fund trades. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board, directly and through its Portfolio Committee, regularly reviews investment performance information for the Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks and/or peer groups of similarly-managed funds, over different time horizons. The Trustees also review detailed performance information during the management agreement approval process. If performance concerns are identified, the Fund receives special reviews until performance improves, during which the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results (e.g., market conditions, security selection) and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The Fund’s performance was above its benchmark for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods and below its benchmark for the one-year period reviewed by the Board. The Board discussed the Fund’s performance with the Advisor and was satisfied with the efforts being undertaken by the Advisor. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Fund to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.

Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides the Fund with a comprehensive package of transfer agency, shareholder, and other services. The Board, directly and through various committees of the Board, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction (as measured by external as well as internal sources), technology support, new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities.

Certain aspects of shareholder and transfer agency service level efficiency and the quality of securities trading activities are measured by independent third party providers and are presented in comparison to other fund groups not managed by the Advisor. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to the Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.

Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Fund, its profitability in managing the Fund, its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.

Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to shareholders and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.

Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of the Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is appropriately sharing economies of scale through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business to provide shareholders enhanced and expanded services.

Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that the Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, the fees and expenses of the Fund’s independent Trustees (including their independent legal counsel), and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing, and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. By contrast, most other funds are charged a variety of fees, including an investment advisory fee, a transfer agency fee, an administrative fee, distribution charges, and other expenses. Other than their investment advisory fees and any applicable Rule 12b-1 fees, all other components of the total fees charged by these other funds may be increased without shareholder approval. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider and comparing the Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratio of peer funds. The unified fee charged to shareholders of the Fund was below the median of the total expense ratios of the Fund’s peer group. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by the Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.

Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to advisory clients other than the Fund. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Fund. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Fund were reasonable by comparison.

Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by the Fund and the Advisor. These payments include various payments made by the Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for the Fund.

Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor’s primary business is managing mutual funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that the Advisor receives proprietary research from broker-dealers that execute fund portfolio transactions. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex.

Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Fund’s operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund.

Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees and assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, concluded that the management agreement between the Fund and the Advisor is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and should be renewed.
