Disclosure of Fund expenses
For the six-month period from September 1, 2011 to February 29, 2012

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvested dividends, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. These following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period from September 1, 2011 to February 29, 2012.

Actual expenses

The first section of the tables shown, “Actual Fund return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section of the table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. 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 in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

The second section of the tables shown, “Hypothetical 5% return,” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. 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 a 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 tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second section of each 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. The Funds’ expenses shown in the tables reflect fee waivers in effect. The expenses shown in each table assume reinvestment of all dividends and distributions.

Notes to financial statements
Delaware Investments® state tax-free funds February 29, 2012 (Unaudited)

Voyageur Mutual Funds is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and offers five series: Delaware Minnesota High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund, Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund, Delaware Tax-Free California Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, and Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund. Voyageur Mutual Funds II is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and offers one series: Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund. Voyageur Insured Funds is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and offers one series: Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund. Voyageur Mutual Funds, Voyageur Mutual Funds II, and Voyageur Insured Funds are individually referred to as a Trust and collectively as the Trusts. These financial statements and related notes pertain to Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund, Delaware Tax-Free California Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, and Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund (each, a Fund or, collectively, the Funds). The above Trusts are open-end investment companies. The Funds are considered diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and offer Class A, Class B, and Class C shares. Class A shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of up to 4.50%. Class A share purchases of $1,000,000 or more will incur a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% if redeemed during the first year and 0.50% during the second year, provided that Delaware Distributors, L.P. (DDLP) paid a financial advisor a commission on the purchase of those shares. Class B shares may be purchased only through dividend reinvestment and certain permitted exchanges. Prior to June 1, 2007, Class B shares were sold with a CDSC that declined from 4% to zero depending upon the period of time the shares were held. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares on a quarterly basis approximately eight years after purchase. Class C shares are sold with a CDSC of 1%, if redeemed during the first twelve months.

The investment objective of each Fund is to seek as high a level of current income exempt from federal income tax and from personal income tax in its respective state as is consistent with preservation of capital.

1. Significant Accounting Policies

The following accounting policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) and are consistently followed by the Funds.

Security Valuation — Debt securities are valued based upon valuations provided by an independent pricing service or broker and reviewed by management. To the extent current market prices are not available, the pricing service may take into account developments related to the specific security, as well as transactions in comparable securities. Valuations for fixed income securities utilize matrix systems, which reflect such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings, and are supplemented by dealer and exchange quotations. Open-end investment companies are valued at their published net asset value. Short-term debt securities are valued at market value. Generally, other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of each Fund’s Board of Trustees (each, a Board or, collectively, the Boards). In determining whether market quotations are readily available or fair valuation will be used, various factors will be taken into consideration, such as market closures or suspension of trading in a security.

92



Federal Income Taxes — No provision for federal income taxes has been made as each Fund intends to continue to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and make the requisite distributions to shareholders. The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (August 31, 2008–August 31, 2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements.

Class Accounting — Investment income and common expenses are allocated to the various classes of each Fund on the basis of “settled shares” of each class in relation to the net assets of each Fund. Realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments are allocated to the various classes of each Fund on the basis of daily net assets of each class. Distribution expenses relating to a specific class are charged directly to that class.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the fair value of investments, the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material.

Other — Expenses directly attributable to the Funds are charged directly to the Funds. Other expenses common to various funds within the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds are generally allocated amongst such funds on the basis of average net assets. Management fees and some other expenses are paid monthly. Security transactions are recorded on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date) for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in calculating realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts and premiums are amortized to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Each Fund declares dividends daily from net investment income and pays the dividends monthly and declares and pays distributions from net realized gain on investments, if any, annually. The Funds may distribute income dividends and capital gains more frequently, if necessary for tax purposes. Dividends and distributions, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

The Funds may receive earnings credits from their custodian when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset custody fees. There were no earnings credits for the six months ended February 29, 2012.

At February 29, 2012, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes has been estimated since the final tax characteristics cannot be determined until the fiscal year end. At February 29, 2012, the cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for each Fund were as follows:

Delaware Delaware Delaware Delaware Delaware

U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that the Funds would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. A three level hierarchy for fair value measurements has been established based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available under the circumstances. Each Fund’s investment in its entirety is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three level hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.

Level 1   –  inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments (e.g., equity securities, open-end investment companies, futures contracts, options contracts)
       
Level 2   –  other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) (e.g., debt securities, government securities, swap contracts, foreign currency exchange contracts, foreign securities utilizing international fair value pricing)

4. Dividend and Distribution Information

Income and long-term capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Additionally, distributions from net short-term gains on sales of investment securities are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. The tax character of dividends and distributions paid during the six months ended February 29, 2012 and the year ended August 31, 2011 was as follows:

Delaware Delaware Delaware Delaware Delaware
Tax-Free Tax-Free Tax-Free Tax-Free Tax-Free
Arizona Fund California Fund   Colorado Fund Idaho Fund New York Fund
Six Months Ended 2/29/12*
Tax-exempt income $ 2,010,660 $1,767,010 $4,642,752 $ 2,426,865 $1,022,535

*Tax information for the six months ended February 29, 2012 is an estimate and the tax character of dividends and distributions may be redesignated at fiscal year end.

5. Components of Net Assets on a Tax Basis

The components of net assets are estimated since final tax characteristics cannot be determined until fiscal year end. As of February 29, 2012, the estimated components of net assets on a tax basis were as follows:

Delaware Delaware Delaware Delaware Delaware
Tax-Free Tax-Free Tax-Free Tax-Free Tax-Free
Arizona Fund California Fund Colorado Fund Idaho Fund New York Fund

       interest $ 99,701,505 $ 84,919,181 $ 226,932,360 $ 141,792,798 $ 60,026,860

The differences between book basis and tax basis components of net assets are primarily attributable to tax deferral of losses on wash sales, tax treatment of distributions payable and tax treatment of market discount and premium on debt instruments.

For financial reporting purposes, capital accounts are adjusted to reflect the tax character of permanent book/tax differences. Reclassifications are primarily due to tax treatment of market discount and premium on debt instruments. Results of operations and net assets were not affected by these reclassifications. For the six months ended February 29, 2012, the Funds recorded an estimate of these differences since final tax characteristics cannot be determined until fiscal year end.

On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the Act) was enacted, which changed various technical rules governing the tax treatment of regulated investment companies. The changes are generally effective for taxable years beginning after the date of enactment. Under the Act, the Funds will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after the date of enactment for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years, which carry an expiration date. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital loss carryforwards will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as permitted under previous regulation.

7. Line of Credit

Each Fund, along with certain other funds in the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds (Participants), was a participant in a $100,000,000 revolving line of credit to be used for temporary or emergency purposes as an additional source of liquidity to fund redemptions of investor shares. Under the agreement, the Participants were charged an annual commitment fee, which was allocated across the Participants on the basis of each Participant’s allocation of the entire facility. The Participants were permitted to borrow up to a maximum of one third of their net assets under the agreement. The line of credit under the agreement expired on November 15, 2011.

On November 15, 2011, the Funds, along with the other Participants, entered into an amendment to the agreement for a $125,000,000 revolving line of credit. The agreement is to be used as described above and operates in substantially the same manner as the original agreement. The agreement expires on November 13, 2012. The Funds had no amounts outstanding as of February 29, 2012 or at any time during the period then ended.

8. Credit and Market Risk

The Funds concentrate their investments in securities issued by municipalities. The values of these investments may be adversely affected by new legislation within the states, regional or local economic conditions, as applicable, and differing levels of supply and demand for municipal bonds. Many municipalities insure repayment for their obligations. Although bond insurance reduces the risk of loss due to default by an issuer, such bonds remain subject to the risk that value may fluctuate for other reasons and there is no assurance that the insurance company will meet its obligations. A real or perceived decline in creditworthiness of a bond insurer can have an adverse

impact on the value of insured bonds held in the Funds. At February 29, 2012, the percentages of each Fund’s net assets insured by bond insurers are listed below and these securities have been identified in the statements of net assets.

Delaware Delaware Delaware Delaware Delaware

Arizona Fund California Fund Colorado Fund Idaho Fund New York Fund
  29.84%       14.69%       23.17%       27.72%       4.38%

The Funds may invest in advanced refunded bonds, escrow secured bonds or defeased bonds. Under current federal tax laws and regulations, state and local government borrowers are permitted to refinance outstanding bonds by issuing new bonds. The issuer refinances the outstanding debt to either reduce interest costs or to remove or alter restrictive covenants imposed by the bonds being refinanced. A refunding transaction where the municipal securities are being refunded within 90 days from the issuance of the refunding issue is known as a “current refunding.” Advance refunded bonds are bonds in which the refunded bond issue remains outstanding for more than 90 days following the issuance of the refunding issue. In an advance refunding, the issuer will use the proceeds of a new bond issue to purchase high grade interest bearing debt securities which are then deposited in an irrevocable escrow account held by an escrow agent to secure all future payments of principal and interest and bond premium of the advance refunded bond. Bonds are “escrowed to maturity” when the proceeds of the refunding issue are deposited in an escrow account for investment sufficient to pay all of the principal and interest on the original interest payment and maturity dates.

Bonds are considered “pre-refunded” when the refunding issue’s proceeds are escrowed only until a permitted call date or dates on the refunded issue with the refunded issue being redeemed at the time, including any required premium. Bonds become “defeased” when the rights and interests of the bondholders and of their lien on the pledged revenues or other security under the terms of the bond contract are substituted with an alternative source of revenues (the escrow securities) sufficient to meet payments of principal and interest to maturity or to the first call dates. Escrowed secured bonds will often receive a rating of AAA from Moody’s Investors Service Inc., Standard & Poor’s Rating Group, and/or Fitch Ratings due to the strong credit quality of the escrow securities and the irrevocable nature of the escrow deposit agreement.

Each Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities, which may include securities with contractual restrictions on resale, securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other securities which may not be readily marketable. The relative illiquidity of these securities may impair each Fund from disposing of them in a timely manner and at a fair price when it is necessary or desirable to do so. While maintaining oversight, each Fund’s Board has delegated to DMC the day-to-day functions of determining whether individual securities are liquid for purposes of each Fund’s limitation on investments in illiquid securities. Securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, which are determined

104



to be liquid, are not subject to each Fund’s 15% limit on investments in illiquid securities. As of February 29, 2012, there were no Rule 144A securities. Illiquid securities have been identified on the statements of net assets.

9. Contractual Obligations

The Funds enter into contracts in the normal course of business that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Funds’ existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

10. Subsequent Events

Management has determined that no material events or transactions occurred subsequent to February 29, 2012 that would require recognition or disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.

Change in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Due to independence matters under the Securities and Exchange Commission’s auditor independence rules relating to the January 4, 2010 acquisition of Delaware Investments (including DMC, DDLP and DSC) by Macquarie Group, Ernst & Young LLP (E&Y) has resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm for Voyageur Mutual Funds, Voyageur Mutual Funds II, and Voyageur Insured Funds (the Trusts) effective May 20, 2010. At a meeting held on May 20, 2010, the Board of Trustees of the Trusts, upon recommendation of the Audit Committee, selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Trusts for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2010. During the fiscal years ended August 31, 2009 and 2008, E&Y’s audit reports on the financial statements of the Trusts did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. In addition, there were no disagreements between the Trusts and E&Y on accounting principles, financial statements disclosures or audit scope, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of E&Y, would have caused them to make reference to the disagreement in their reports. Neither the Trusts nor anyone on their behalf has consulted with PwC at any time prior to their selection with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Trusts’ financial statements.
