Principal Investment Strategies and Risks

This is not a complete list of risks that affect the Funds. For additional information concerning the risks applicable to the Funds, please see the Funds’ Prospectuses.

The Goldman Sachs Bond Fund invests primarily in fixed income securities, including U.S. government securities, corporate debt securities, privately issued mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, high yield non-investment grade securities and fixed income securities of issuers located in emerging countries. The Fund’s investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities generally, including credit, liquidity and interest rate risk. Any guarantee on U.S. government securities applies only to the underlying securities of the Fund if held to maturity and not to the value of the Fund’s shares. Investments in mortgage-backed securities are also subject to prepayment risk (i.e., the risk that in a declining interest rate environment, issuers may pay principal more quickly than expected, causing the Fund to reinvest proceeds at lower prevailing interest rates). High yield, lower rated investments involve greater price volatility and present greater risks than higher rated fixed income securities. Foreign and emerging markets investments may be more volatile and less liquid than investments in U.S. securities and are subject to the risks of currency fluctuations and adverse economic and political developments. Derivative instruments may involve a high degree of financial risk. These risks include the risk that a small movement in the price of the underlying security or benchmark may result in a disproportionately large movement, unfavorable or favorable, in the price of the derivative instrument; risks of default by a counterparty; and liquidity risk (i.e., the risk that an investment may not be able to be sold without a substantial drop in price, if at all).

The Goldman Sachs Core Fixed Income Fund invests primarily in fixed income securities, including U.S. government securities, corporate debt securities, privately issued mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities. The Fund’s investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities generally, including credit, liquidity and interest rate risk. Any guarantee on U.S. government securities applies only to the underlying securities of the Fund if held to maturity and not to the value of the Fund’s shares. Investments in mortgage-backed securities are also subject to prepayment risk (i.e., the risk that in a declining interest rate environment, issuers may pay principal more quickly than expected, causing the Fund to reinvest proceeds at lower prevailing interest rates). Foreign and emerging markets investments may be more volatile and less liquid than investments in U.S. securities and are subject to the risks of currency fluctuations and adverse economic and political developments. Derivative instruments may involve a high degree of financial risk. These risks include the risk that a small movement in the price of the underlying security or benchmark may result in a disproportionately large movement, unfavorable or favorable, in the price of the derivative instrument; risks of default by a counterparty; and liquidity risk (i.e., the risk that an investment may not be able to be sold without a substantial drop in price, if at all).

The Goldman Sachs Global Income Fund invests primarily in a portfolio of fixed income securities of U.S. and foreign issuers. The Fund’s investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities generally, including credit, liquidity and interest rate risk. Foreign and emerging markets investments may be more volatile and less liquid than investments in U.S. securities and are subject to the risks of currency fluctuations and adverse economic or political developments. Issuers of sovereign debt may be unable or unwilling to repay principal or interest when due. Any guarantee on U.S. government securities applies only to the underlying securities of the Fund if held to maturity and not to the value of the Fund’s shares. Investments in mortgage-backed securities are also subject to prepayment risk (i.e., the risk that in a declining interest rate environment, issuers may pay principal more quickly than expected, causing the Fund to reinvest proceeds at lower prevailing interest rates). Derivative instruments may involve a high degree of financial risk. These risks include the risk that a small movement in the price of the underlying security or benchmark may result in a disproportionately large movement, unfavorable or favorable, in the price of the derivative

instrument; risks of default by a counterparty; and liquidity risk (i.e., the risk that an investment may not be able to be sold without a substantial drop in price, if at all). The Fund may invest heavily in investments in particular countries or regions and may be subject to greater losses than if it were less concentrated in a particular country or region. The Fund is “non-diversified” and may invest more of its assets in fewer issuers than “diversified” funds. Accordingly, the Fund may be more susceptible to adverse developments affecting any single issuer held in its portfolio and to greater losses resulting from these developments.

The Goldman Sachs Strategic Income Fund invests in a broadly diversified portfolio of U.S. and foreign investment grade and non-investment grade fixed income investments including, but not limited to: U.S. government securities, non-U.S. sovereign debt, agency securities, corporate debt securities, agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, custodial receipts, municipal securities, loan participations and loan assignments and convertible securities. Investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities generally, including credit, liquidity and interest rate risk. Investments in mortgage-backed securities are also subject to, among other risks, prepayment risk (i.e., the risk that in a declining interest rate environment, issuers may pay principal more quickly than expected, causing the Fund to reinvest proceeds at lower prevailing interest rates). High yield, lower rated investments involve greater price volatility, are less liquid and present greater risks than higher rated fixed income securities. Foreign and emerging markets investments may be more volatile and less liquid than investments in U.S. securities and are subject to the risks of currency fluctuations and adverse economic or political developments. The Fund is also subject to the risk that the issuers of sovereign debt or the government authorities that control the payment of debt may be unable or unwilling to repay principal or interest when due. The Fund may be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments if it invests a substantial portion of its assets in bonds of similar projects or in particular types of municipal securities. The Fund may invest in loans directly, through loan assignments, or indirectly, by purchasing participations or sub-participations from financial institutions. Indirect purchases may subject the Fund to greater delays, expenses and risks than direct obligations in the case that a borrower fails to pay scheduled principal and interest. Derivative instruments may involve a high degree of financial risk. These risks include the risk that a small movement in the price of the underlying security or benchmark may result in a disproportionately large movement, unfavorable or favorable, in the price of the derivative instrument; risks of default by a counterparty; and liquidity risk. At times, the Fund may be unable to sell certain of its illiquid investments without a substantial drop in price, if at all. The Fund is subject to the risks associated with implementing short positions. Taking short positions involves leverage of the Fund’s assets and presents various other risks. Losses on short positions are potentially unlimited as a loss occurs when the value of an asset with respect to which the Fund has a short position increases.

The Investment Adviser will not manage the investment program of the Fund by reference to a benchmark index (i.e., unconstrained). By removing benchmark constraints, the Fund is able to invest across the global fixed income spectrum without regard to sector, quality, maturity or market capitalization limitations, including in asset classes in which more traditional or benchmark-constrained fixed income funds do not typically invest (or do not invest to such an extent). Due to this flexible strategy, the Fund’s risk exposure may vary, and the Fund may underperform traditional fixed income indices. There can be no assurance that the discretionary element of the investment processes of the Investment Adviser will be exercised in a manner that is successful or that is not adverse to the Fund, or that the Fund will outperform more traditional or benchmark-constrained fixed income funds.

What Differentiates the Goldman Sachs Asset Management Fixed Income Investment Process?

 

At Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), the goal of our fixed income investment process is to provide consistent, strong performance by actively managing our portfolios within a research-intensive, risk-managed framework.

 

A key element of our fixed income investment philosophy is to evaluate the broadest global opportunity set to capture relative value across sectors and instruments. Our globally integrated investment process involves managing dynamically along the risk/return spectrum, as we continue to develop value-added strategies through:

MARKET REVIEW

 

Goldman Sachs Multi Sector Fixed Income Funds

 

 

Market Review

Shifting expectations about global economic growth and the timing of a potential Federal Reserve (“Fed”) interest rate hike, along with falling commodities prices, appear to have influenced the performance of the global fixed income markets during the six months ended September 30, 2015 (the “Reporting Period”).

When the Reporting Period began in April 2015, the performance of spread, or non-government bond, sectors was mixed. U.S. Treasury yields rose, as U.S. economic data improved, including positive surprises in inflation and retail sales. First quarter 2015 U.S. Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) was revised upwards from -0.7% to a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of -0.2%. The upward revision stemmed in part from stronger than estimated consumer spending and inventory data. U.S. dollar gains hit a roadblock during the second calendar quarter on uncertainty around the Fed’s plans for raising interest rates in 2015. The Eurozone’s economic progress took a back seat to the seemingly intractable challenges surrounding Greece.

In the third quarter of 2015, spread sectors underperformed U.S. Treasuries as the outlook for the global economy grew cloudy. Investors focused on slowing economic growth in China, the devaluation of the Chinese renminbi and an unexpected increase in market volatility. Oil and commodities prices dropped to new lows, partly because of falling demand from China. Uncertainty about the timing of potential Fed policy tightening became an increasingly key theme. Surprisingly to many, the Fed chose to leave rates unchanged at its September 2015 policy meeting, citing conditions in the global economy. Although the U.S. economy continued to improve, economic growth in other developed countries softened and emerging markets economies broadly weakened. Despite accommodative monetary policies by many global central banks, inflation remained subdued in the world’s major economies.

For the Reporting Period overall, U.S. Treasuries performed strongly, outpacing other fixed income sectors with the exception of asset-backed securities. High yield corporate bonds underperformed U.S. Treasuries the most, followed by investment grade corporate bonds, sovereign emerging market debt and agency securities. Commercial mortgage-backed securities and residential mortgage-backed securities also underperformed U.S. Treasuries, albeit more modestly. The U.S. Treasury yield curve, or spectrum of maturities, steepened during the Reporting Period, as longer-term yields rose more than intermediate-term yields, and shorter-term yields edged down. The yield on the bellwether 10-year U.S. Treasury rose approximately 18 basis points to 2.04%. (A basis point is 1/100th of a percentage point.)

Looking Ahead

At the end of the Reporting Period, we had not changed our broadly positive view for the global economy, though we did see less cause for optimism. We believe the economic slowdown in the emerging markets is constraining global economic growth overall. Further, in our view, U.S. and European economic momentum is moderating, and Japan is facing stronger headwinds. The risks of policy missteps in China have manifested, in our view, raising the prospect of further volatility in the fixed income markets. Additionally, we think the benefits of lower oil prices are fading, with no end in sight for the downward trend in the commodities markets.

We believed, at the end of the Reporting Period, that the U.S. economy was caught in the cross-currents of domestic strength and global weakness. In our view, the U.S. is likely to

MARKET REVIEW

 

benefit from labor market tightening as well as from improvements in the housing market and in retail sales. Risks include tight financial conditions and weak global demand, while production cuts in the energy sector could have an impact on capital expenditures. Although the Fed may yet raise rates in 2015, we believe the odds of a delay are growing.

In the Eurozone, economic growth momentum appears to have flattened. The Syrian refugee crisis seems to have replaced worries about a potential Greek exit as the dominant policy challenge. We think the European Central Bank is likely to expand its quantitative easing in early 2016. In the U.K., we expect economic growth data to remain positive and believe an interest rate hike by the Bank of England in early 2016 is possible. However, we do not expect the U.K. central bank to move before the Fed acts. Japan faces a possible relapse into recession, and we believe the Bank of Japan will probably ease again in the near term. In the emerging markets, economic growth has weakened under the combined pressures of the commodities slump, China’s economic slowdown, U.S. dollar strength and fears of Fed policy tightening.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks a total return consisting of capital appreciation and income that exceeds the total return of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs U.S. Fixed Income Investment Management Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Bond Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the six-month period ended September 30, 2015 (the “Reporting Period”).

 

Q   How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, C, Institutional, Service, IR and R Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of -0.08%, -0.55%, 0.09%, -0.17%, 0.04% and -0.21%, respectively. These returns compare to the -0.47% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the “Barclays Index”), during the same time period.

 

    Since their inception on July 31, 2015, the Fund’s Class R6 Shares generated a cumulative total return, without sales charge, of 0.35%. This return compares to the 0.53% cumulative total return of the Barclays Index during the same period.

 

Q   What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

 

A   Tactical management of the Fund’s duration and yield curve positioning strategy contributed positively to relative performance during the Reporting Period. The duration strategy is primarily implemented via interest rate swaps and/or futures. Duration is a measure of the Fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Yield curve indicates the spectrum of maturities within a particular sector.

 

    Our top-down currency strategy further boosted the Fund’s relative results. In our currency strategy, positions in several developed market currencies proved beneficial during the Reporting Period, particularly having underweighted positions in the Japanese yen, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar. The currency strategy is primarily implemented via currency forwards. Bottom-up individual issue selection overall added value as well.

 

    Our cross-sector strategy detracted from Fund performance during the Reporting Period. Our cross-sector strategy is one in which we invest Fund assets across a variety of fixed income sectors, including some that may not be included in the Fund’s benchmark.

 

Q   Which fixed income market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

 

A   Implemented via our cross-sector strategy, the Fund’s overweighted exposure to corporate credit detracted from relative results. Credit spreads, or the yield differential between corporate bonds and duration-equivalent U.S. Treasuries, widened during the Reporting Period amidst heavy market volatility. An allocation to tax-exempt Puerto Rican municipal debt also dampened results, as spreads widened due largely to increased concerns about the commonwealth’s ability to meet its debt obligations.

 

    Individual issue selection of structured debt within the corporate credit sector added value. Tactical trades within our government/swaps strategy and selection of U.S. dollar-denominated emerging market debt also contributed positively to relative results. The government/swaps selections strategy is primarily implemented via currency forwards. There were no meaningful detractors from a security selection perspective during the Reporting Period.

 

Q   Did the Fund’s duration and yield curve positioning strategy help or hurt its results during the Reporting Period?

 

A  

Tactical management of the Fund’s duration and yield curve positioning contributed positively to its results during the Reporting Period. We maintained a short U.S. duration position relative to the Barclays Index during the second quarter of 2015, which helped as government yields rose broadly on stronger economic data and expectations that the

Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) would raise interest rates in 2015. In August 2015, we removed the short U.S. duration position and moved to a rather neutral position relative to the Barclays Index as volatility picked up early in the month. We then shifted to a modestly longer duration position than that of the Barclays Index in September 2015, ahead of the Fed’s meeting, due to tightening financial conditions and our view that the Fed was not likely to raise rates. We maintained a bullish bias regarding the Fed’s monetary policy, but toward the end of the Reporting Period, we returned to a more neutral duration position in the Fund compared to that of the Barclays Index as yields moved lower amid Fed rhetoric indicating its bias toward hiking rates in late 2015. At the end of the Reporting Period, we expected the Fed to raise interest rates either in December 2015 or early in 2016, as international headwinds such as low commodity prices and volatility in Asia skewed risks, in our view, toward a later hike.

 

Q   How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

 

A   As market conditions warranted during the Reporting Period, currency transactions were carried out using primarily over-the-counter (“OTC”) spot and forward foreign exchange contracts as well as purchased OTC options. Currency transactions were used as we sought both to enhance returns and to hedge the Fund’s portfolio against currency exchange rate fluctuations. Also, Treasury futures were used as warranted to facilitate specific duration, yield curve and country strategies; swaptions (or options on interest rate swap contracts) to express an outright term structure view and manage volatility (term structure, most often depicted as a yield curve, refers to the term structure of interest rates, which is the relationship between the yield to maturity and the time to maturity for pure discount bonds); credit default swaps to manage exposure to fluctuations in credit spreads (or the differential in yields between Treasury securities and non-Treasury securities that are identical in all respects except for quality rating); and interest rate swaps to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. The Fund also used forward sales contracts to help manage duration. Overall, we employ derivatives and similar instruments for the efficient management of the Fund’s portfolio. Derivatives and similar instruments allow us to manage interest rate, credit and currency risks more effectively by allowing us both to hedge and to apply active investment views with greater versatility and to afford greater risk management precision than we would otherwise be able to implement. Derivatives are used in combination with cash securities to implement our views in the Fund.

 

Q   Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

 

A   As mentioned earlier, we adjusted the Fund’s U.S. duration position during the Reporting Period as market conditions and perceptions around Fed policy shifted.

 

    From a sector perspective, we increased the Fund’s already overweighted exposure to corporate credit on our expectations that global economic growth is likely to improve. We maintained the Fund’s underweighted exposure to agency mortgage-backed securities on our view that valuations within the sector remained unattractive relative to other fixed income sectors amid high prepayment speeds.

 

Q   How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of September 2015?

 

A   At the end of September 2015, the Fund had overweighted allocations relative to the Barclays Index on a market-value weighted basis in asset-backed securities, high yield corporate bonds and investment grade corporate bonds. The Fund also had modest exposure to municipal bonds, which is a sector not represented in the Barclays Index. The Fund had underweighted exposure relative to the Barclays Index in U.S. government securities and, to a lesser extent, in residential mortgage-backed securities. The Fund held rather neutral positions compared to the Barclays Index in quasi-government securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, covered bonds and emerging market debt. (Covered bonds are debt securities backed by cash flows from mortgage loans or public sector loans.) The Fund also maintained a position in cash at the end of the Reporting Period. The Fund maintained a rather neutral overall duration compared to the Barclays Index at the end of the Reporting Period.

  1    The net asset value (“NAV”) represents the net assets of the class of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares of the class outstanding. The Fund’s performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions. The Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.

 

  2    The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index represents an unmanaged diversified portfolio of fixed income securities, including U.S. Treasuries, investment-grade corporate bonds, and mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. The Index figure does not reflect any deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

 

  3    The method of calculation of the 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield is mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and is determined by dividing the net investment income per share earned during the last 30 days of the period by the maximum public offering price (“POP”) per share on the last day of the period. This number is then annualized. The 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield reflects fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements recorded by the Fund during the period. Without waivers and/or reimbursements, yields would be reduced. This yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned and distributed by the Fund and, therefore, may not be correlated with the dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders. The 30-Day Standardized Unsubsidized Yield does not adjust for any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements in effect. If the Fund does not incur any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements during the period, the 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield and 30-Day Standardized Unsubsidized Yield will be identical.

 

The returns set forth in the table above represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

  4    The Standardized Total Returns are average annual or cumulative total returns (only if the performance period is one year or less) as of the most recent calendar quarter-end . They assume reinvestment of all distributions at NAV. These returns reflect a maximum initial sales charge of 3.75% for Class A Shares and the assumed contingent deferred sales charge for Class C Shares (1% if redeemed within 12 months of purchase). Prior to July 29, 2009, the maximum initial sales charge applicable to Class A Shares was 4.5%, which is not reflected in the average annual total return figures shown. Because Institutional, Service, Class IR and Class R Shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Standardized Total Returns.

 

The returns set forth in the table above represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks a total return consisting of capital appreciation and income that exceeds the total return of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs U.S. Fixed Income Investment Management Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Core Fixed Income Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the six-month period ended September 30, 2015 (the “Reporting Period”).

 

Q   How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, C, Institutional, Service, IR and R Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of -0.61%, -0.97%, -0.44%, -0.68%, -0.49% and -0.73%, respectively. These returns compare to the -0.47% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the “Barclays Index”), during the same period.

 

    Since their inception on July 31, 2015, the Fund’s Class R6 Shares generated a cumulative total return, without sales charge, of 0.29%. This return compares to the 0.53% cumulative total return of the Barclays Index during the same period.

 

Q   What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

 

A   Tactical management of the Fund’s duration and yield curve positioning strategy detracted from relative performance during the Reporting Period. The duration strategy is primarily implemented via interest rate swaps and/or futures. Duration is a measure of the Fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Yield curve indicates the spectrum of maturities within a particular sector.

 

    Our top-down currency strategy was the primary positive contributor to Fund performance during the Reporting Period. In our currency strategy, underweighted positions in the euro and Japanese yen and an overweighted position in the U.S. dollar versus the Canadian dollar proved particularly beneficial during the Reporting Period. The currency strategy is primarily implemented via currency forwards. Our country strategy contributed as well, driven by a long European rates strategy. The country strategy is primarily implemented via interest rate swaps and/or futures.

 

    Our top-down cross-sector strategy and our bottom-up individual issue selection overall produced mixed results. Our cross-sector strategy is one in which we invest Fund assets across a variety of fixed income sectors, including some that may not be included in the Fund’s benchmark.

 

Q   Which fixed income market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

 

A   Implemented via our cross-sector strategy, the Fund’s underweighted exposure compared to the Barclays Index in emerging market debt, mortgage-backed securities and government/swaps securities contributed positively to relative results. During the Reporting Period, emerging market debt posted weak performance, as sovereign spreads, or yield differentials to U.S. Treasuries, widened on heightened global volatility and the economic slowdown in China. Similarly, agency mortgage-backed securities underperformed the Barclays Index, as mortgage spreads widened in response to increased volatility. In the government/swaps sector, being underweight U.S. Treasuries hurt, as these securities outperformed the Barclays Index amidst a flight to safety. The government/swaps selection strategy is primarily implemented via interest rate swaps and/or futures. Conversely, having an overweighted allocation to corporate bonds detracted from relative results. We maintained the Fund overweight based on our view that there is macroeconomic support for the corporate credit sector. However, during the Reporting Period, investment grade corporate bond spreads widened, and credit overall weakened due to high issuance and heightened global volatility. An overweight to agency securities, which lagged the Barclays Index during the Reporting Period, also detracted from the Fund’s relative results.

 

   

Individual issue selection amongst structured products within the corporate credit sector, particularly in the banking and financial industries, contributed positively to relative results. Selection of mortgage-backed security passthroughs and

tactical trades on the mid- to long-term end of the U.S. dollar curve added value as well. However, individual issue selection among investment grade corporate bonds overall dampened relative performance.

 

Q   Did the Fund’s duration and yield curve positioning strategy help or hurt its results during the Reporting Period?

 

A   Tactical management of the Fund’s duration and yield curve positioning detracted from its results during the Reporting Period. We maintained a short U.S. duration position relative to the Barclays Index throughout the Reporting Period based on what we viewed as improving inflation indicators, generally strong economic data releases and our expectation that the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) would raise rates in either late 2015 or early 2016. That said, we reduced the short position toward the end of the Reporting Period as our view began trending more toward a neutral duration position given our growing expectation that the Fed would postpone raising interest rates due to what proved to be subdued inflation, heightened global volatility and depressed commodity prices. However, the fact that the Fed did not raise rates in September 2015 as we, along with many others, originally expected and because U.S. Treasury yields did not increase in reaction to positive economic data during the summer of 2015, the Fund’s short U.S. duration position hurt performance.

 

Q   How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

 

A   As market conditions warranted during the Reporting Period, currency transactions were carried out using primarily over-the-counter (“OTC”) spot and forward foreign exchange contracts as well as purchased OTC options. Currency transactions were used as we sought both to enhance returns and to hedge the Fund’s portfolio against currency exchange rate fluctuations. Also, Treasury and international government bond futures, Eurodollar futures and other futures contracts were used as warranted to facilitate specific duration, yield curve and country strategies; swaptions (or options on interest rate swap contracts) to express an outright term structure view and manage volatility (term structure, most often depicted as a yield curve, refers to the term structure of interest rates, which is the relationship between the yield to maturity and the time to maturity for pure discount bonds); credit default swaps to manage exposure to fluctuations in credit spreads (or the differential in yields between Treasury securities and non-Treasury securities that are identical in all respects except for quality rating); and interest rate swaps to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. The Fund also used forward sales contracts to help manage duration. Overall, we employ derivatives and similar instruments for the efficient management of the Fund’s portfolio. Derivatives and similar instruments allow us to manage interest rate, credit and currency risks more effectively by allowing us both to hedge and to apply active investment views with greater versatility and to afford greater risk management precision than we would otherwise be able to implement.

 

Q   Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

 

A   As mentioned earlier, we shifted the Fund’s short U.S. duration position toward a rather neutral stance toward the end of the Reporting Period due to an increase in volatility.

 

    From a sector perspective, we maintained the Fund’s overweighted exposure relative to the Barclays Index to corporate credit. Within the sector, we maintained a modest overweight in the Fund to investment grade credit based on our view that there is a supportive macroeconomic outlook in the developed markets despite the greater global volatility. We also maintained a bias toward lower-rated securities within the intermediate segment of the corporate term structure.

 

    We maintained the Fund’s underweighted exposure to agency mortgage-backed securities during the Reporting Period based on our belief that the sector faces headwinds, including increased supply and reduced demand. However, within the sector, we did maintain a modest overweight in the Fund to agency multi-family mortgage-backed securities.

 

Q   How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of September 2015?

 

A   At the end of September 2015, the Fund had its most overweighted allocations relative to the Barclays Index on a market-value weighted basis in asset-backed securities and investment grade corporate bonds (with an emphasis on the financials and industrials industries). The Fund also had a more modestly overweighted exposure at the end of the Reporting Period to quasi-government securities. The Fund had its most underweighted exposure relative to the Barclays Index in U.S. government securities. The Fund maintained rather neutral exposures relative to the Barclays Index to commercial mortgage-backed securities, residential mortgage-backed securities, covered bonds, high yield corporate bonds and emerging market debt. (Covered bonds are debt securities backed by cash flows from mortgage loans or public sector loans.) The Fund had a sizable position in cash and cash equivalents at the end of September 2015. The Fund maintained a rather neutral overall duration compared to the Barclays Index at the end of the Reporting Period.

  1    The net asset value (“NAV”) represents the net assets of the class of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares of the class outstanding. The Fund’s performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions. The Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.

 

  2    The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index represents an unmanaged diversified portfolio of fixed income securities, including U.S. Treasuries, investment-grade corporate bonds and mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. The Index figure does not reflect any deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

 

  3    The method of calculation of the 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield is mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and is determined by dividing the net investment income per share earned during the last 30 days of the period by the maximum public offering price (“POP”) per share on the last day of the period. This number is then annualized. The 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield reflects fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements recorded by the Fund during the period. Without waivers and/or reimbursements, yields would be reduced. This yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned and distributed by the Fund and, therefore, may not be correlated with the dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders. The 30-Day Standardized Unsubsidized Yield does not adjust for any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements in effect. If the Fund does not incur any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements during the period, the 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield and 30-Day Standardized Unsubsidized Yield will be identical.

 

The returns set forth in the table above represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

  4    The Standardized Total Returns are average annual or cumulative total returns (only if the performance period is one year or less) as of the most recent calendar quarter-end . They assume reinvestment of all distributions at NAV. These returns reflect a maximum initial sales charge of 3.75% for Class A Shares and the assumed contingent deferred sales charge for Class C Shares (1% if redeemed within 12 months of purchase). Prior to July 29, 2009, the maximum initial sales charge applicable to Class A Shares was 4.5%, which is not reflected in the average annual total return figures shown. Because Institutional, Service, Class IR and Class R Shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Standardized Total Returns.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks a high total return, emphasizing current income, and, to a lesser extent, providing opportunities for capital appreciation.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Global Fixed Income Investment Management Team discusses the Goldman Sachs

Global Income Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the six-month period ended September 30, 2015 (the “Reporting Period”).

 

Q   How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, C, Institutional, Service and IR Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of -0.89%, -1.35%, -0.72%, -0.97% and -0.77%, respectively. These returns compare to the -0.91% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index (Gross, USD, hedged) (the “Barclays Index”), during the same time period.

 

    Since their inception on July 31, 2015, the Fund’s Class R6 Shares generated a cumulative total return, without sales charge, of 0.17%. This return compares to the 0.32% cumulative total return of the Barclays Index during the same period.

 

Q   What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

 

A   The primary contributor to the Fund’s performance was our country strategy. Within our country strategy, our five-year/ five-year relative value trading, implemented via the use of interest rate swaps, proved most effective. (The strategy looks at various countries, both developed and emerging market, for relative value opportunities.) In particular, the Fund’s exposure to the European interest rate curve proved effective. Such positioning more than offset the detracting impact of positioning in Brazil and the U.S. during the Reporting Period. Additionally, several relative value trades strongly benefited results, especially our long Japanese yen 10-year/20-year position versus short U.S. dollar and euro 10-year/20-year trade and our long euro five-year rates position versus short U.S. 10-year rates trade. The Fund’s long position in Canadian 10-year rates versus short position in U.S. 10-year rates trade also added value. These relative value trades boosted results, as expectations of an interest rate hike in the U.S. were pushed further into the future based on worsening global macroeconomic data. The country strategy is primarily implemented via interest rate swaps and/or futures.

 

    To a more modest degree, our duration strategy also contributed positively to the Fund’s results. The duration strategy is primarily implemented via interest rate swaps and/or futures. Duration is a measure of the Fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates.

 

    Detracting from the Fund’s performance were our cross-sector and currency strategies. Our cross sector strategy is one in which we invest Fund assets across a variety of fixed income sectors, including some that may not be included in the Fund’s benchmark. Within our currency strategy, the Fund’s long position in the Mexican peso detracted the most. The Mexican peso depreciated against the U.S. dollar through most of the Reporting Period, partially due to the flight to U.S. dollar safety seen in the wake of August 2015 volatility. The Fund’s long position in the New Zealand dollar also dampened relative results. The currency strategy is primarily implemented via currency forwards.

 

    Individual issue selection produced mixed results during the Reporting Period. These strategies reflect any active views we take on these particular sectors.

 

Q   Which fixed income market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

 

A  

The Fund’s overweight to corporate spreads compared to the Barclays Index, implemented via our cross-sector strategy, was the primary detractor from the Fund’s results. In August 2015, increased market volatility drove a broad risk-off sentiment among investors and pushed expectations of an interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) further out.

 

16


PORTFOLIO RESULTS

 

 

In turn, corporate spreads, or yield differentials to U.S. Treasuries, widened especially dramatically in September 2015. High yield corporate bonds sold off for a fourth consecutive month in September 2015 amidst pressures from increased volatility. An overweight relative to the Barclays Index in commercial mortgage-backed securities also hurt. These detractors were partially offset by the Fund’s underweighted exposure to emerging market debt, which contributed positively.

 

    Individual issue selection within the emerging market debt sector detracted from the Fund’s results during the Reporting Period, owing mostly to the Fund’s overweight to Mexican government debt as well as to positions in Columbia and Indonesia.

 

    Conversely, bottom-up individual issue selection of corporate bonds boosted the Fund’s relative results during the Reporting Period. More specifically, selection of structured products within the corporate bond sector — such as those of Halcyon Loan Advisors or collateralized loan obligations from Shackleton — helped. Specific selection of credits within investment grade utilities and high yield financials contributed positively as well.

 

Q   Did the Fund’s duration and yield curve positioning strategy help or hurt its results during the Reporting Period?

 

A   The combined effect of the Fund’s duration and yield curve positioning contributed positively to results during the Reporting Period. The Fund’s duration strategy is actively managed and constantly monitored in an effort to generate greater performance and reduced risk through volatile markets. We tactically adjusted the Fund’s duration position throughout the Reporting Period as market conditions shifted. For example, the Fund’s long German duration position, implemented via what are known as Bobl futures contracts, in July 2015 was particularly beneficial to relative results. Detracting somewhat was our shifting from a long U.S. duration position relative to the Barclays Index at the end of March 2015 to a short U.S. duration position relative to the Barclays Index by the end of April 2015 and then to an even shorter relative position in June 2015 before extending duration slightly, though staying shorter than that of the Barclays Index, by the end of the Reporting Period. As mentioned earlier, duration is a measure of the Fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates.

 

Q   How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

 

A   We used derivatives and similar instruments for the efficient management of the Fund. These derivatives and similar instruments allowed us to manage interest rate, credit and currency risks more effectively by allowing us both to hedge and to apply active investment views with greater versatility and to afford greater risk management precision than we would otherwise be able to implement. Derivatives are used in combination with cash securities to implement our views in the Fund.

 

    During the Reporting Period, we used interest rate and bond exchange traded futures contracts to implement duration and country strategies within the Fund, especially in the U.S., Eurozone, U.K. and Japanese markets. Currency transactions were carried out using primarily over-the-counter (“OTC”) spot and forward foreign exchange contracts as well as by purchasing OTC options. Currency transactions were used as we sought both to enhance returns and to hedge the Fund’s portfolio against currency exchange rate fluctuations. Interest rate and credit default swaps were also used as cost-efficient instruments to help grant us greater precision and versatility in the management of active strategies. Forward sales contracts were used to implement currency transactions based on our active views and for hedging purposes. Written option contracts were used to implement active views within our top-down and bottom-up selection strategies and for hedging purposes.

 

Q   Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

 

A   As mentioned earlier, we transitioned from a long U.S. duration position in comparison to that of the Barclays Index to a short U.S. duration position, held for most of the Reporting Period. We made this shift because we felt the market was being too bearish on the U.S. economy and that interest rates were likely to rise sooner than the consensus expected.

 

   

Within the investment grade corporate bond sector, we modestly reduced the Fund’s exposure to the financials industry, as we feel this segment is increasingly affected by the idiosyncratic risk of regulation, and increased its exposure to industrials. We moved to an increasingly underweighted allocation to emerging market debt during the

Reporting Period, as the global macroeconomic environment became of heightened concern to us, especially with the market volatility evident in August 2015. We also reduced the Fund’s exposure to quasi-government securities during the Reporting Period. We increased the Fund’s cash position during the Reporting Period.

 

    From a country perspective, on a market-value weighted basis, we increased the Fund’s exposure relative to the Barclays Index to Japan and the U.S. and decreased its relative weightings in the U.K. and in the Eurozone overall, primarily in Germany.

 

Q   How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of September 2015?

 

A   At the end of September 2015, on a market-value weighted basis, the Fund had overweighted allocations relative to the Barclays Index in asset-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities and investment grade corporate bonds. The Fund had underweighted exposure relative to the Barclays Index in government securities, covered bonds, quasi-government securities and emerging market debt. (Covered bonds are debt securities backed by cash flows from mortgage loans or public sector loans.) The Fund was rather neutrally weighted compared to the Barclays Index in residential mortgage-backed securities and had no position in high yield corporate bonds at the end of the Reporting Period. The Fund also had a notable position in cash at the end of the Reporting Period.

 

    From a country perspective, on a market-value weighted basis, the Fund was overweight relative to the Barclays Index in the U.S. The Fund was underweight compared to the Barclays Index in Japan and the U.K. The Fund was relatively neutrally weighted to the Eurozone overall, but within the region, was overweight Germany and Italy, underweight France and rather neutral to the remaining markets at the end of the Reporting Period. The Fund was also relatively neutrally weighted at the end of the Reporting Period to Australia, Canada, Denmark, Norway and Sweden. The Fund had a modestly shorter duration than the Barclays Index at the end of the Reporting Period.

  1    The net asset value (“NAV”) represents the net assets of the class of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares of the class outstanding. The Fund’s performance reflects the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions. The Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.

 

  2    The Barclays Global Aggregate Bond (Gross, USD, Hedged) Index, an unmanaged index, provides a broad based measure of the global investment-grade fixed-rate debt markets and covers the most liquid portion of the global investment grade fixed-rate bond market, including government, credit and collateralized securities. The Index figures do not include any deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

 

  3    The method of calculation of the 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield is mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and is determined by dividing the net investment income per share earned during the last 30 days of the period by the maximum public offering price (“POP”) per share on the last day of the period. This number is then annualized. The 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield reflects fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements recorded by the Fund during the period. Without waivers and/or reimbursements, yields would be reduced. This yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned and distributed by the Fund and, therefore, may not be correlated with the dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders. The 30-Day Standardized Unsubsidized Yield does not adjust for any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements in effect. If the Fund does not incur any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements during the period, the 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield and 30-Day Standardized Unsubsidized Yield will be identical.

 

The returns set forth in the table above represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown. In their absence, performance would be reduced.

  4    The Standardized Total Returns are average annual or cumulative total returns (only if the performance period is one year or less) as of the most recent calendar quarter-end. They assume reinvestment of all distributions at NAV. These returns reflect a maximum initial sales charge of 3.75% for Class A Shares and the assumed contingent deferred sales charge for Class C Shares (1% if redeemed within 12 months of purchase). Prior to July 29, 2009, the maximum initial sales charge applicable to Class A Shares was 4.5%, which is not reflected in the average annual total return figures shown. Because Institutional, Service, Class IR and Class R Shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Standardized Total Returns.

 

The returns set forth in the table above represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs U.S. Fixed Income Investment Management Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Strategic Income Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the six-month period ended September 30, 2015 (the “Reporting Period”).

 

Q   How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, C, Institutional, IR and R Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of -0.37%, -0.74%, -0.20%, -0.24% and -0.49%, respectively. These returns compare to the 0.14% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. Dollar 3-Month LIBOR Constant Maturity Index (the “LIBOR Index”), during the same period.

 

    Since their inception on July 31, 2015, the Fund’s Class R6 Shares generated a cumulative total return, without sales charge, of -1.11%. This return compares to the 0.05% cumulative total return of the LIBOR Index during the same period.

 

    We note that the Fund’s benchmark being the LIBOR Index is a means of emphasizing that the Fund has an unconstrained strategy. That said, this Fund employs a benchmark agnostic strategy and thus comparisons to a benchmark index are not particularly relevant.

 

Q   What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

 

A   Detracting most from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period was individual issue selection. These strategies reflect any active views we take on these particular sectors.

 

    Within our top-down strategies, our currency and country strategies contributed positively to Fund performance. Within our currency strategy, the Fund benefited most from an underweighted position in a basket of Asian currencies, including the Chinese renminbi, South Korean won and New Taiwan dollar. Within our country strategy, the Fund benefited from long duration positions in Canada and Europe versus a short U.S. duration position.

 

    The Fund’s duration strategy contributed positively, albeit modestly to its performance. Duration is a measure of the Fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates.

 

Q   Which fixed income market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

 

A   Individual issue selection within the corporate bond and municipal debt sectors detracted. Throughout the Reporting Period, the broad corporate bond sector, both investment grade and high yield, experienced significant spread widening, meaning the differential in yields between these sectors and U.S. Treasuries increased. Within the municipal debt sector, exposure to Puerto Rico debt hurt most, as there was significant downward price movement following comments in June 2015 by the commonwealth’s governor indicating that its current debt was unsustainable and there was a need for a debt restructure. At the end of the Reporting Period, the commonwealth was continuing to explore various options to restructure its outstanding debt.

 

    Conversely, individual issue selection within the government/swaps sector contributed positively to the Fund’s performance. In particular, the Fund benefited from its yield curve steepening positions within the sector.

 

Q   Did the Fund’s duration and yield curve positioning strategy help or hurt its results during the Reporting Period?

 

A  

The combined effect of the Fund’s tactical duration and yield curve positioning contributed positively, albeit modestly, to results during the Reporting Period. The Fund particularly benefited from a long duration in European interest rates toward the beginning of the Reporting Period and from a long duration position in U.S. interest rates toward the end of

the Reporting Period, the latter position being established based on our view that the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) would not raise interest rates following its September 2015 meeting.

 

Q   How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

 

A   We used derivatives and similar instruments for the efficient management of the Fund. These derivatives and similar instruments allowed us to manage interest rate, credit and currency risks more effectively by allowing us both to hedge and to apply active investment views with greater versatility and to afford greater risk management precision than we would otherwise be able to implement.

 

    During the Reporting Period, we used interest rate and bond exchange traded futures contracts to implement duration and country strategies within the Fund, especially in the U.S., Eurozone and Japanese markets. Currency transactions were carried out using primarily over-the-counter (“OTC”) spot and forward foreign exchange contracts as well as by purchasing OTC options. Currency transactions were used as we sought both to enhance returns and to hedge the Fund’s portfolio against currency exchange rate fluctuations. Also, we used written options contracts and swaptions (or options on interest rate swap contracts) to express an outright term structure view and manage volatility (term structure, most often depicted as a yield curve, refers to the term structure of interest rates, which is the relationship between the yield to maturity and the time to maturity for pure discount bonds); credit default swaps to manage exposure to fluctuations in credit spreads (or the differential in yields between Treasury securities and non-Treasury securities that are identical in all respects except for quality rating); and interest rate swaps to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. We used total return swaps to manage curve exposure across various strategies within the Fund. Our currency strategy used forward sales contracts to implement long and short views within the strategy.

 

    Both the country strategy and currency strategy employ derivatives to achieve their views. In the country strategy, the Team primarily uses swaps/futures to express relative value trades in the interest rates of two separate countries. The country strategy overall contributed positively to the Fund’s performance. Within the country strategy, the Fund benefited from a long Canadian dollar and euro vs short U.S. rates positions.

 

    In the currency strategy, transactions were carried out primarily using over-the-counter spot and forward foreign exchange contracts as well as by purchasing over-the-counter options. The currency strategy overall contributed positively to the Fund’s performance. Within the currency strategy, the Fund benefited from a short position in a basket of Asian currencies such as the Chinese yuan, Korean won, and New Taiwan dollar.

 

Q   Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

 

A   The Fund is a broadly diversified, multi-sector portfolio designed to provide total return opportunities from across the fixed income spectrum, including government, securitized, corporate credit and emerging market fixed income sectors.

 

    During the Reporting Period, we modestly reduced the Fund’s exposure to Puerto Rico municipal debt, as these securities had come under heavy pressure following comments from the commonwealth’s governor. We kept the Fund’s corporate bond exposure relatively modest throughout the Reporting Period based on seasonality, as credit assets have historically performed poorly in the summer months. However, we did add to the Fund’s corporate bond sector position toward the end of the Reporting Period based on what we considered to be attractive valuations. We also slowly increased the Fund’s exposure to securitized products, specifically in Federal Family Education Loan Program (“FFELP”) student loans, as we believe this move represented an opportunity to add what we consider to be high quality cash flows at attractive levels.

 

    Early in the Reporting Period, our country strategy’s largest conviction was that in the long Japan/U.S. versus short U.K./ Europe trade, as we sought to capture the divergence of the respective economies. Following strong performance, we wound down the trade. In June 2015, we pivoted into a long Europe versus short U.K. and U.S. rates position. Within the Fund’s currency strategy, we steadily increased the Fund’s overweighted positions in other developed market currencies versus an underweighted position in a basket of Asian currencies given our concerns surrounding a slowdown in Asian economic growth.

 

Q   How was the Fund positioned at the end of September 2015?

 

A  

At the end of September 2015, the Fund had the majority of its total net assets invested in U.S. government securities, followed by collateralized loan obligations, agency and

non-agency mortgage-backed securities, high yield corporate bonds, emerging market debt, investment grade corporate bonds, quasi-government securities, corporate bank loans and commercial mortgage-backed securities. The Fund also maintained exposure at the end of the Reporting Period to asset-backed securities, municipal bonds and covered bonds. (Covered bonds are debt securities backed by cash flows from mortgage loans or public sector loans.) The Fund also had a sizable position in cash at the end of the Reporting Period.

 

    The Fund’s largest duration positions at the end of the Reporting Period were its long duration position in Europe versus its short duration positions in the U.K. and U.S. The Fund had a more modestly long duration position in Canada and a more modestly short duration position in Japan. The Fund had a long duration overall relative to the LIBOR Index at the end of the Reporting Period.

 

    From a currency perspective, the Fund maintained long currency positions in the U.S. dollar and, to a significantly more modest degree, in the Mexican peso and the Chilean peso. The Fund was most short a basket of Asian currencies, including the Chinese renminbi, the South Korean won, the New Taiwan dollar and the Singapore dollar at the end of the Reporting Period. More modestly so, the Fund also had short positions in the euro, the Israeli shekel and the United Arab Emirates dirham at the end of the Reporting Period.

  1    The net asset value (NAV) represents the net assets of the class of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares of the class outstanding. The Fund’s performance reflects the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions. The Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.

 

  2    The Bank of America Merrill Lynch U.S. Dollar Three-Month LIBOR Constant Maturity Index tracks the performance of a synthetic asset paying LIBOR to a stated maturity. The index is based on the assumed purchase at par of a synthetic instrument having exactly its stated maturity and with a coupon equal to that day’s fixing rate. That issue is assumed to be sold the following business day (priced at a yield equal to the current day fixing rate) and rolled into a new instrument.

 

  3    The method of calculation of the 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield is mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and is determined by dividing the net investment income per share earned during the last 30 days of the period by the maximum public offering price (“POP”) per share on the last day of the period. This number is then annualized. The 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield reflects fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements recorded by the Fund during the period. Without waivers and/or reimbursements, yields would be reduced. This yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned and distributed by the Fund and, therefore, may not be correlated with the dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders. The 30-Day Standardized Unsubsidized Yield does not adjust for any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements in effect. If the Fund does not incur any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements during the period, the 30-Day Standardized Subsidized Yield and 30-Day Standardized Unsubsidized Yield will be identical.

 

The returns set forth in the table above represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

  (c)   Credit spread on the Referenced Obligation, together with the term of the swap contract, are indicators of payment/performance risk. The likelihood of a credit event occurring which would require a fund to make a payment or otherwise be required to perform under the swap contract is generally greater as the credit spread and the term of the swap contract increase.

  All or a portion of the security was pledged as collateral against open reverse repurchase agreements. As of September 30, 2015, the value of securities pledged amounted to $19,294,875.

(f)

  Security is currently in default and/or non-income producing.

(g)

  Security with a notional or nominal principal amount. The actual effective yield of this security is different than the stated interest rate.

(h)

  TBA (To Be Announced) Securities are purchased on a forward commitment basis with an approximate principal amount and no defined maturity date. The actual principal and maturity date will be determined upon settlement when the specific mortgage pools are assigned. Total market value of TBA securities (excluding forward sales contracts, if any) amounts to $204,102,501 which represents approximately 1.1% of net assets as of September 30, 2015.

(i)

  Coupon changes periodically based upon a predetermined schedule. Interest rate disclosed is that which is in effect on September 30, 2015.

(j)

  Issued with a zero coupon. Income is recognized through the accretion of discount.

(k)

  Guaranteed by a foreign government until maturity. Total market value of these securities amounts to $820,342,779, which represents 4.3% of net assets as of September 30, 2015.

(l)

  All or a portion of security is segregated as collateral for initial margin requirements on futures transactions.

(m)

  Senior Term Loans often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. The stated interest rate represents the weighted average interest rate of all contracts within the senior loan facility on September 30, 2015. Senior Term Loans typically have rates of interest which are predetermined either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are primarily the London-Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), and secondarily the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks (the “Prime Rate”) and the certificate of deposit (“CD”) rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders.

  (a)   Calculated based on the average shares outstanding methodology.
  (b)   Assumes investment at the net asset value at the beginning of the period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions, a complete redemption of the investment at the net asset value at the end of the period and no sales or redemption charges. Total returns would be reduced if a sales or redemption charge was taken into account. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Total returns for periods less than one full year are not annualized.
  (c)   The Fund’s portfolio turnover rate is calculated in accordance with regulatory requirements, without regard to transactions involving short term investments and certain derivatives. If such transactions were included, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be higher.
  (d)   Annualized.
  (e)   Rounds to less than $0.01 per share.
  (f)   Includes a tax return of capital amounting to less than $0.01 per share.

  (a)   Calculated based on the average shares outstanding methodology.
  (b)   Assumes investment at the net asset value at the beginning of the period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions, a complete redemption of the investment at the net asset value at the end of the period and no sales or redemption charges. Total returns would be reduced if a sales or redemption charge was taken into account. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Total returns for periods less than one full year are not annualized.
  (c)   The Fund’s portfolio turnover rate is calculated in accordance with regulatory requirements, without regard to transactions involving short term investments and certain derivatives. If such transactions were included, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be higher.
  (d)   Annualized.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management International (“GSAMI”), an affiliate of GSAM and Goldman Sachs, serves as investment adviser pursuant to a management agreement with the Trust on behalf of the Global Income Fund (the management agreements with GSAM and GSAMI are collectively referred to herein as the “Agreements”).

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions.

A.  Investment Valuation — The Funds’ valuation policy is to value investments at fair value.

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income and dividend income, net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments. Distributions received from the Funds’ investments in U.S. real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Funds as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT.

For derivative contracts, realized gains and losses are recorded upon settlement of the contract. Upfront payments are made or received upon entering into a swap agreement and are reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Upfront payments are recognized over the contract’s term/event as realized gains or losses, with the exception of forward starting interest rate swaps

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

whose realized gains or losses are recognized from the effective start date. For securities with paydown provisions, principal payments received are treated as a proportionate reduction to the cost basis of the securities, and excess or shortfall amounts are recorded as income. For treasury inflation protected securities (“TIPS”), adjustments to principal due to inflation/deflation are reflected as increases/decreases to interest income with a corresponding adjustment to cost.

C.  Class Allocations and Expenses — Investment income, realized and unrealized gain (loss), and non-class specific expenses of each Fund are allocated daily based upon the proportion of net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, are borne by the respective share classes and include Distribution and Service, Transfer Agency and Service and Shareholder Administration fees. Non-class specific expenses directly incurred by a Fund are charged to that Fund, while such expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated across the applicable Funds on a straight-line and/or pro-rata basis depending upon the nature of the expenses.

D.  Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies (mutual funds) and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Funds are not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gains distributions, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly, and capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually.

Net capital losses are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 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. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law.

The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from GAAP. The source of each Fund’s distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from net investment income, net realized gain or capital. Certain components of the Funds’ net assets on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities reflect permanent GAAP/tax differences based on the appropriate tax character.

E.  Foreign Currency Translation — The accounting records and reporting currency of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates at the close of each business day. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is included within net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. Changes in the value of other assets and liabilities as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are included in the Statements of Operations within net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency translations. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the date the transaction occurred, the effects of which are included within net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price). GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, volatility and credit spreads), either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require significant unobservable inputs (including GSAM’s and GSAMI’s assumptions in determining fair value measurement).

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the hierarchy. In accordance with the Funds’ policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value hierarchy resulting from such changes are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period.

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has adopted Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Funds, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have delegated to GSAM and GSAMI day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Funds’ portfolio investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM and GSAMI regularly perform price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

A.  Level 1 and Level 2 Fair Value Investments — The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair values for investments classified as Level 1 and Level 2 are as follows:

Debt Securities — Debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued daily on the basis of quotations supplied by dealers or an independent pricing service approved by the Trustees. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which consider: (i) yield or price with respect to bonds that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value. Short-term debt obligations that mature in sixty days or less and that do not exhibit signs of credit deterioration are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. With the exception of treasury securities of G8 countries (not held in money market funds), which are generally classified as Level 1, these investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

i.  Inverse Floaters — The interest rate on inverse floating rate securities (“inverse floaters”) resets in the opposite direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floaters are indexed. An inverse floater may be considered to be leveraged to the extent that its interest rate varies by a magnitude that exceeds the magnitude of the change in the index rate of interest. The higher the degree of leverage of an inverse floater, the greater the volatility of its market value.

ii.  Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities — Mortgage-backed securities represent direct or indirect participations in, or are collateralized by and payable from, mortgage loans secured by residential and/or commercial real estate property. Asset-backed securities include securities whose principal and interest payments are collateralized by pools of other assets or receivables. The value of certain mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities (including adjustable rate mortgage loans) may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. The value of these securities may also fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers.

 

118

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

 

Asset-backed securities may present credit risks that are not presented by mortgage-backed securities because they generally do not have the benefit of a security interest in collateral that is comparable to mortgage assets. Some asset-backed securities may only have a subordinated claim on collateral.

Stripped mortgage-backed securities are usually structured with two different classes: one that receives substantially all interest payments (interest-only, or “IO” and/or high coupon rate with relatively low principal amount, or “IOette”), and the other that receives substantially all principal payments (principal-only, or “PO”) from a pool of mortgage loans. Little to no principal will be received at the maturity of an IO; as a result, periodic adjustments are recorded to reduce the cost of the security until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income.

iii.  Mortgage Dollar Rolls — Mortgage dollar rolls are transactions whereby a Fund sells mortgage-backed-securities and simultaneously contracts with the same counterparty to repurchase similar securities on a specified future date. During the settlement period, a Fund will not be entitled to accrue interest and receive principal payments on the securities sold.

iv.  Senior Term Loans — Senior term loans (“Loans”) are interests in amounts owed by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. Loans are arranged through private negotiations between the borrower and one or more financial institutions (“Lenders”). A Fund’s investments in Loans are in the form of either participations in Loans (“Participations”) or assignments of all or a portion of Loans from third parties (“Assignments”). With respect to Participations, a Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled from the Lender selling the Participations and only upon receipt by the Lender of the payments from the borrower. A Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement with respect to Participations. Conversely, Assignments result in a Fund having a direct contractual relationship with the borrower, and the Fund may be permitted to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement.

v.  Structured Notes —The values of structured notes are based on the price movements of a reference security or index. Upon termination, a Fund will receive a payment from the issuer based on the value of the referenced instrument (notional amount multiplied by price of the referenced instrument) and record a realized gain or loss.

vi.  Treasury Inflation Protected Securities — TIPS are treasury securities in which the principal amount is adjusted daily to keep pace with inflation, as measured by the U.S. Consumer Pricing Index for Urban Consumers. The repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity is guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.

vii.  When-Issued Securities and Forward Commitments — When-issued securities, including TBA (“To Be Announced”) securities, are securities that are authorized but not yet issued in the market and purchased in order to secure what is considered to be an advantageous price or yield to a Fund. A forward commitment involves entering into a contract to purchase or sell securities, typically on an extended settlement basis, for a fixed price at a future date. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines before the settlement date. Conversely, the sale of securities on a forward commitment basis involves the risk that the value of the securities sold may increase before the settlement date. Although a Fund will generally purchase securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis with the intention of acquiring the securities for its portfolio, the Fund may dispose of when-issued securities or forward commitments prior to settlement which may result in a realized gain or loss.

Equity Securities — Equity securities and investment companies traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or it is believed by GSAM and GSAMI to not represent fair value, equity securities and exchange traded

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

 

investment companies are valued at the last bid price for long positions and at the last ask price for short positions. Investments in investment companies (other than those that are exchange traded) are valued at the NAV on the valuation date. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2.

Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on the valuation date, or if no sale occurs, at the last bid price. Securities traded on certain foreign securities exchanges are valued daily at fair value determined by an independent fair value service (if available) under Valuation Procedures approved by the Trustees and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. The independent fair value service takes into account multiple factors including, but not limited to, movements in the securities markets, certain depositary receipts, futures contracts and foreign currency exchange rates that have occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign securities exchange. These investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Money Market Funds — Investments in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Underlying Fund”) are valued at the NAV of the FST Share class on the day of valuation. These investments are generally classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Underlying Fund may invest in debt securities which are valued daily on the basis of quotations supplied by dealers, if market quotations are readily available, or an independent pricing service approved by the Trustees. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which consider: (i) yield or price with respect to bonds that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value.

Derivative Contracts — A derivative is an instrument whose value is derived from underlying assets, indices, reference rates or a combination of these factors. The Funds enter into derivative transactions to hedge against changes in interest rates, securities prices, and/or currency exchange rates, to increase total return, or to gain access to certain markets or attain exposure to other underliers.

Exchange-traded derivatives, including futures and options contracts, are valued at the last sale or settlement price and typically fall within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) and centrally cleared derivatives are valued using market transactions and other market evidence, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value OTC and centrally cleared derivatives depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC and centrally cleared derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC and centrally cleared derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence.

i.  Forward Contracts — A forward contract is a contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a specified price on a future date. A forward contract settlement can occur on a cash or delivery basis. Forward contracts are marked-to-market daily using independent vendor prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss.

A forward foreign currency contract is a forward contract in which a Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked-to-market daily at the applicable forward rate. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.

A non-deliverable bond forward is a short term forward contract between two parties to buy or sell a bond denominated in a non-deliverable foreign currency at a specified future time and price. Non-deliverable bond forwards are marked-to-market daily using market quotations. Unrealized gains or losses on non-deliverable bond forwards are recorded by a Fund on a daily basis, and realized gains or losses are recorded on the termination date or sale of a contract.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

 

ii.  Futures Contracts — Futures contracts are contracts to buy or sell a standardized quantity of a specified commodity or security and are valued based on exchanged settlement prices or independent market quotes. Futures contracts are valued at the last settlement price, or in the absence of a sale, the last bid price for long positions and at the last ask price for short positions, at the end of each day on the board of trade or exchange upon which they are traded. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund deposits cash or securities in an account on behalf of the broker in an amount sufficient to meet the initial margin requirement. Subsequent payments are made or received by a Fund equal to the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as variation margin receivable or payable with a corresponding offset to unrealized gains or losses.

iii.  Options — When a Fund writes call or put options, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. Swaptions are options on interest rate swap contracts.

Upon the purchase of a call option or a put option by a Fund, the premium paid is recorded as an investment and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms.

iv.  Swap Contracts — Bilateral swap contracts are agreements in which a Fund and a counterparty agree to exchange periodic payments on a specified notional amount or make a net payment upon termination. Bilateral swap transactions are privately negotiated in the OTC market and payments are settled through direct payments between a Fund and the counterparty. By contrast, certain swap transactions are subject to mandatory central clearing. These swaps are executed through a derivatives clearing member (“DCM”), acting in an agency capacity, and submitted to a central counterparty (“CCP”) (“centrally cleared swaps”), in which case all payments are settled with the CCP through the DCM. Swaps are marked-to-market daily using pricing vendor quotations, counterparty or clearinghouse prices or model prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Upon entering into a swap contract, a Fund is required to satisfy an initial margin requirement by delivering cash or securities to the counterparty (or in some cases, segregated in a triparty account on behalf of the counterparty), which can be adjusted by any mark-to-market gains or losses pursuant to bilateral or centrally cleared arrangements. For centrally cleared swaps the daily change in valuation, if any, is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin.

An interest rate swap is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals, based upon or calculated by reference to changes in interest rates on a specified notional principal amount. The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to the other.

A credit default swap is an agreement that involves one party (the buyer of protection) making a stream of payments to another party (the seller of protection) in exchange for the right to receive protection on a reference security or obligation, including a group of assets or exposure to the performance of an index. A Fund’s investment in credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if the Fund had invested in the referenced obligation directly. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring and obligation acceleration. If a Fund buys protection through a credit default swap and no credit event occurs, its payments are limited to the periodic payments previously made to the counterparty. Upon the occurrence of a specified credit event, a Fund, as a buyer of credit protection, is entitled to receive an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver to the seller the defaulted reference obligation in a physically settled trade. A Fund may also receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap reduced by the recovery value of the reference obligation in a cash settled trade.

As a seller of protection, a Fund generally receives a payment stream throughout the term of the swap, provided that there is no credit event. In addition, if a Fund sells protection through a credit default swap, a Fund could suffer a loss because the value of the referenced obligation and the premium payments received may be less than the notional amount of the swap

paid to the buyer of protection. Upon the occurrence of a specified credit event, a Fund, as a seller of credit protection, may be required to take possession of the defaulted reference obligation and pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap in a physically settled trade. A Fund may also pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap reduced by the recovery value of the reference obligation in a cash settled trade. Recovery values are at times established through the credit event auction process in which market participants are ensured that a transparent price has been set for the defaulted security or obligation. In addition, a Fund is entitled to a return of any assets, which have been pledged as collateral to the counterparty.

The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Fund as seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations or net amounts received from a settlement of a credit default swap for the same reference security or obligation where a Fund bought credit protection.

A total return swap is an agreement that gives a Fund the right to receive the appreciation in the value of a specified security, index or other instrument in return for a fee paid to the counterparty, which will typically be an agreed upon interest rate. If the underlying asset declines in value over the term of the swap, a Fund may also be required to pay the dollar value of that decline to the counterparty.

Short Term Investments — Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost which approximates fair market value. These investments are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

i.  Repurchase Agreements — Repurchase agreements involve the purchase of securities subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). During the term of a repurchase agreement, the value of the underlying securities held as collateral on behalf of a Fund, including accrued interest, is required to exceed the value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest. The gross value of repurchase agreements is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held at the Funds’ custodian or designated sub-custodians under tri-party repurchase agreements.

An MRA governs transactions between a Fund and select counterparties. An MRA contains provisions for, among other things, initiation of the transaction, income payments, events of default and maintenance of securities for both repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements. An MRA also permits offsetting with collateral to create one single net payment in the event of default or similar events, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of a counterparty.

If the seller defaults, a Fund could suffer a loss to the extent that the proceeds from the sale of the underlying securities and other collateral held by the Fund are less than the repurchase price and the Fund’s costs associated with delay and enforcement of the repurchase agreement. In addition, in the event of default or insolvency of the seller, a court could determine that a Fund’s interest in the collateral is not enforceable, resulting in additional losses to the Fund.

Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and terms and conditions contained therein, the Funds, together with other funds of the Trust and registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates, may transfer uninvested cash into joint accounts, the daily aggregate balance of which is invested in one or more repurchase agreements. Under these joint accounts, the Funds maintain pro-rata credit exposure to the underlying repurchase agreements’ counterparties. With the exception of certain transaction fees, the Funds are not subject to any expenses in relation to these investments.

ii.  Commercial Paper Commercial paper normally represents short-term unsecured promissory notes issued in bearer form by banks or bank holding companies, corporations, finance companies and other issuers. Commercial paper consists of direct U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of domestic or foreign issuers. Asset-backed commercial paper is issued by a special purpose entity that is organized to issue the commercial paper and to purchase trade receivables or other financial assets.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

 

Secured Borrowings — Secured Borrowings are valued at their contractual amounts, which approximates fair value and are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

i. Reverse Repurchase Agreements — Reverse repurchase agreements involve the sale of securities held by the Funds subject to the Funds’ agreement to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price (including interest), under the terms of an MRA.

The funds are required to deliver securities as collateral to the counterparty that exceeds the value of the reverse repurchase agreement. The gross value of reverse repurchase agreements is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes.

If the buyer defaults on its commitment to sell back the securities, a Fund could suffer a loss to the extent that the amount borrowed is less than the replacement cost of similar securities and the Fund’s costs associated with delay and enforcement of the reverse repurchase agreement. In addition, in the event of default or insolvency of the buyer, a court could determine that a Fund’s interest in the amount borrowed is not enforceable, resulting in additional losses to the Fund.

B.  Level 3 Fair Value Investments — To the extent that significant inputs to valuation models and other alternative pricing sources are unobservable, or if quotations are not readily available, or if GSAM and GSAMI believe that such quotations do not accurately reflect fair value, the fair value of the Funds’ investments may be determined under Valuation Procedures approved by the Trustees. GSAM and GSAMI, consistent with their procedures and applicable regulatory guidance, may make an adjustment to the most recent valuation prices of either domestic or foreign securities in light of significant events to reflect what they believe to be the fair value of the securities at the time of determining a Fund’s NAV. Significant events which could affect a large number of securities in a particular market may include, but are not limited to: significant fluctuations in U.S. or foreign markets; market dislocations; market disruptions; or unscheduled market closings. Significant events which could also affect a single issuer may include, but are not limited to: corporate actions such as reorganizations, mergers and buy-outs; ratings downgrades; and bankruptcies. To the extent investments are valued using single source broker quotations obtained directly from the broker or passed through from third party pricing vendors, such investments are classified as Level 3 investments.

GSAM and GSAMI did not develop the unobservable inputs (examples include but are not limited to single source broker quotations, third party pricing, etc.) for the valuation of Level 3 Assets and Liabilities.

Such amounts do not include incremental charges directly associated with the close-out of the agreements. They also do not reflect the fair value of any assets pledged as collateral which, through the daily margining process, substantially offsets the aforementioned amounts and for which the Funds are entitled to a full return.

The following tables set forth, by certain risk types, the Funds’ gains (losses) related to these derivatives and their indicative volumes for the six months ended September 30, 2015. These gains (losses) should be considered in the context that these derivative contracts may have been executed to create investment opportunities and/or economically hedge certain investments, and accordingly, certain gains (losses) on such derivative contracts may offset certain (losses) gains attributable to investments. These gains (losses) are included in “Net realized gain (loss)” or “Net change in unrealized gain (loss)” on the Statements of Operations:

4. INVESTMENTS IN DERIVATIVES (continued)

 

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help a Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, a Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivatives counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives, including (including forward foreign currency exchange contracts, and certain options and swaps), and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

Collateral and margin requirements differ between exchange traded derivatives and OTC derivatives. Margin requirements are established by the broker or clearing house for exchange-traded and centrally cleared derivatives (financial futures contracts, options and centrally cleared swaps) pursuant to governing agreements for those instrument types. Brokers can ask for margin in excess of the minimum in certain circumstances. Collateral terms are contract-specific for OTC derivatives. For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the marked to market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by a Fund and the counterparty. Additionally, a Fund may be required to post initial margin to the counterparty, the terms of which would be outlined in the confirmation of the OTC transaction.

For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as receivables/payables for collateral on certain derivative contracts. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a counterparty must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer is required to be made. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty nonperformance. A Fund attempts to mitigate counterparty risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that it believes to be of good standing and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

Additionally, the netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received are based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the ISDA Master Agreement or similar agreements. However, in the event of a default or insolvency of a counterparty, a court could determine that such rights are not enforceable due the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of setoff that may be imposed due to a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws.

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

 

A.  Management Agreements — Under the Agreements, GSAM and GSAMI manage the Funds, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreements, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Funds’ business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM and GSAMI are entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

For the six months ended September 30, 2015, contractual and effective net management fees with GSAM and GSAMI were at the following rates:

^   Effective Net Management Rate includes the impact of management fee waivers of affiliated underlying funds, if any.
*   Effective December 1, 2014, GSAM agreed to waive a portion of its management fee for the Bond Fund in order to achieve the effective net management rate of 0.41% as an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets of the Fund through at least July 29, 2016. Prior to such date, GSAM may not terminate the arrangement without the approval of the Trustees.

The Bond, Core Fixed Income, and Strategic Income Funds invest in the Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund. This Underlying Fund is considered to be affiliated with the Funds. GSAM has contractually agreed to waive irrevocably a portion of any underlying fund’s management fee in an amount equal to the management fee paid to GSAM due to the Funds’ investment in an affiliated fund for which it also serves as investment advisor. For the six months ended September 30, 2015, GSAM waived $36,696, $60,142 and $458,552, of such Fund’s management fee for the Bond Fund, Core Fixed Income Fund, and Strategic Income Fund, respectively.

B.  Distribution and Service Plans — The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (the “Plans”). Under the Plans, Goldman Sachs, which serves as distributor (the “Distributor”), is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly, for distribution services and personal and account maintenance services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers, at the following annual rates calculated on a Fund’s average daily net assets of each respective share class:

 

     Distribution and Service Plan Rates  
      Class A*        Class C        Class R*  

Distribution Plan

     0.25        0.75        0.50

Service Plan

               0.25             

 

*   With respect to Class A and Class R Shares, the Distributor at its discretion may use compensation for distribution services paid under the Distribution Plan to compensate service organizations for personal and account maintenance services and expenses as long as such total compensation does not exceed the maximum cap on “service fees” imposed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

C.  Distribution Agreement — Goldman Sachs, as Distributor of the shares of the Funds pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, may retain a portion of the Class A Shares’ front end sales charge and Class C Shares’ CDSC. During the six months ended September 30, 2015, Goldman Sachs advised that it retained the following amounts:

 

Fund         Front End
Sales Charge
Class A
       Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge Class C
 

Bond

       $ 1,751         $ 1   

Core Fixed Income

         2,365           972   

Global Income

         1,882             

Strategic Income

         57,031             

D.  Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan — The Trust, on behalf of each Fund that offers Service Shares, has adopted a Service Plan and a Shareholder Administration Plan. These plans allow for service organizations to provide varying levels of personal and account maintenance and shareholder administration services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan each provide for compensation to the service organizations which is accrued daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.25% (0.50% in aggregate) of the average daily net assets of the Service Shares.

E.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Funds for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates as follows: 0.13% of the average daily net assets of Class A, Class C, Class IR and Class R Shares, 0.02% of the average daily net assets of Class R6 Shares; and 0.04% of the average daily net assets of Institutional and Service Shares.

F.  Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM and GSAMI have agreed to limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Funds (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, service fees and shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, shareholder meeting, litigation, indemnification and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Funds are not obligated to reimburse GSAM and GSAMI for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. The Other Expense limitations as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets for the Bond, Core Fixed Income, Global Income and Strategic Income Funds are 0.004%, 0.014%, 0.004% and 0.054%, respectively. The Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least July 29, 2016, and prior to such date GSAM and GSAMI may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees. In addition, the Funds have entered into certain offset arrangements with the custodian and the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Funds’ expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

G.  Line of Credit Facility — As of September 30, 2015, the Funds participated in a $1,205,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates (“Other Borrowers”). Pursuant to the terms of the facility, the Funds and Other Borrowers could increase the credit amount by an additional $115,000,000, for a total of up to $1,320,000,000. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Funds based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the six months ended September 30, 2015, the Funds did not have any borrowings under the facility.

H.  Other Transactions with Affiliates — For the six months ended September 30, 2015, Goldman Sachs earned $24,527, $28,682, $25,125 and $1,172,681 in brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions, including futures transactions executed with Goldman Sachs as the Futures Commission Merchant, on behalf of the Bond, Core Fixed Income, Global Income and Strategic Income Funds, respectively.

As of September 30, 2015, the Funds’ aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

 

      Bond        Core Fixed Income        Global Income        Strategic Income

   $ 408,982,742         $ 1,126,218,023         $ 637,314,423         $ 19,334,169,324

   $ (1,815,070      $ 6,148,813         $ (16,684,154      $ (686,977,364

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales, net mark to market gains/(losses) on regulated futures contracts, foreign currency contracts, inflation protected securities, material modification of debt securities, underlying fund investments, and differences related to the tax treatment of swap transactions.

GSAM and GSAMI have reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for all open tax years (the current and prior three years, as applicable) and have concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.

 

8. OTHER RISKS

The Funds’ risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Foreign Custody Risk — A Fund that invests in foreign securities may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Fund’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over or independent evaluation of their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on a Fund’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include a Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact a Fund’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to

8. OTHER RISKS (continued)

 

shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that a Fund is delayed in investing new cash and, as a result, maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Leverage Risk — Leverage creates exposure to potential gains and losses in excess of the initial amount invested. Borrowings and the use of derivatives may result in leverage and may make the Funds more volatile. When the Funds use leverage, the sum of each Fund’s investment exposure may significantly exceed the amount of assets invested in each Fund, although these exposures may vary over time. Relatively small market movements may result in large changes in the value of a leveraged investment. Each Fund will identify liquid assets on its books or otherwise cover transactions that may give rise to such risk, to the extent required by applicable law. The use of leverage may cause the Funds to liquidate portfolio positions to satisfy their obligations or to meet segregation requirements when it may not be advantageous to do so. The use of leverage by each Fund can substantially increase the adverse impact to which each Fund’s investment portfolio may be subject.

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, fixed income securities or instruments held by the Fund will generally decline in value. Long-term fixed income securities or instruments will normally have more price volatility because of this risk than short-term fixed income securities or instruments.

Investments in Other Investment Companies — As a shareholder of another investment company, including an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”), a Fund will directly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Fund. ETFs are subject to risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including but not limited to the following: (i) the market price of the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or a discount to their NAV; and (ii) an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained.

Liquidity Risk — The Funds may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that a Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, a Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. Liquidity risk may be the result of, among other things, the reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities or the lack of an active market. The potential for liquidity risk may be magnified by a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income mutual funds may be higher than normal, potentially causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, the Funds trade financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). Additionally, the Funds may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the U.S. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation, less public information and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which the Funds invest. Loss may also result from the imposition of exchange controls, confiscations and other government restrictions by the United States or other governments, or from problems in registration, settlement or custody. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which the Funds have exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. To the extent that the Funds also invest in securities of issuers located in emerging markets, these risks may be more pronounced.

Non-Diversification Risk — The Global Income Fund is non-diversified, meaning that it is permitted to invest a larger percentage of its assets in fewer issuers than diversified mutual funds. Thus, a Fund may be more susceptible to adverse

 

141


GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI SECTOR FIXED INCOME FUNDS

 

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

September 30, 2015 (Unaudited)

 

9. INDEMNIFICATIONS

 

developments affecting any single issuer held in its portfolio, and may be more susceptible to greater losses because of these developments.

Portfolio Concentration Risk — As a result of the Global Income Fund’s ability to invest a large percentage of its assets in obligations of issuers within the same country, state, region, currency or economic sector, an adverse economic, business or political development may affect the value of the Fund’s investments more than if its investments were not so concentrated.

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act and state law, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, GSAM and GSAMI believe the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

 

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events after the Statement of Assets and Liabilities date have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued. GSAM and GSAMI have concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended September 30, 2015 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Class IR, Class R and Class R6 Shares of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments (with respect to Class A Shares), contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions (with respect to Class C Shares), and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees (with respect to Class A, Class C and Class R Shares); and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Class IR, Class R or Class R6 Shares of the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from April 1, 2015 through September 30, 2015, which represents a period of 183 days in a 366-day year.

Actual Expenses — The first line under each share class in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net 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 the Funds 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, redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of 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.

*   Expenses for each share class are calculated using each Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended September 30, 2015. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI SECTOR FIXED INCOME FUNDS

 

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreements (Unaudited)

 

Background

The Goldman Sachs Bond Fund, Goldman Sachs Core Fixed Income Fund, Goldman Sachs Global Income Fund, and Goldman Sachs Strategic Income Fund (the “Funds”) are investment portfolios of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Funds at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreements (the “Management Agreements”) on behalf of the Bond, Core Fixed Income, and Strategic Income Funds with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”) and on behalf of the Global Income Fund with Goldman Sachs Asset Management International (together with GSAM, the “Investment Advisers”).

The Management Agreements were most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2016 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreements or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 10-11, 2015 (the “Annual Meeting”).

The review process undertaken by the Trustees spans the course of the year and culminates with the Annual Meeting. To assist the Trustees in their deliberations, the Trustees have established a Contract Review Committee (the “Committee”), comprised of the Independent Trustees. The Committee held three meetings over the course of the year since the Management Agreements were last approved. At those Committee meetings, regularly scheduled Board or other committee meetings, and/or the Annual Meeting, matters relevant to the renewal of the Management Agreements were considered by the Board, or the Independent Trustees, as applicable. Such matters included:

  (a)   the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Funds by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates, including information about:
  (i)   the structure, staff, and capabilities of the Investment Advisers and their portfolio management teams;
  (ii)   the groups within the Investment Advisers and their affiliates that support the portfolio management teams or provide other types of necessary services, including fund services groups (e.g., accounting and financial reporting, tax, shareholder services and operations); controls and risk management groups (e.g., legal, compliance, valuation oversight, credit risk management, internal audit, compliance testing, market risk analysis, finance and strategy and central funding); sales and distribution support groups and others (e.g., information technology and training);
  (iii)   trends in employee headcount;
  (iv)   the Investment Advisers’ financial resources and ability to hire and retain talented personnel and strengthen their operations; and
  (v)   the parent company’s support of the Investment Advisers and their mutual fund business, as expressed by the firm’s senior management;
  (b)   information on the investment performance of each Fund, including comparisons to the performance of similar mutual funds, as provided by a third-party mutual fund data provider engaged as part of the contract review process (the “Outside Data Provider”), benchmark performance indices, and composites of accounts with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Advisers (with the exception of the Global Income Fund), and general investment outlooks in the markets in which the Funds invest;
  (c)   information provided by the Investment Advisers indicating the Investment Advisers’ views on whether a Fund’s peer group and/or benchmark index had high, medium, or low relevance given the Fund’s particular investment strategy;
  (d)   the terms of the Management Agreements and other agreements with affiliated service providers entered into by the Trust on behalf of the Funds;
  (e)   fee and expense information for the Funds, including:
  (i)   the relative management fee and expense levels of each Fund as compared to those of comparable funds managed by other advisers, as provided by the Outside Data Provider;
  (ii)   the expense trends over time of each Fund; and
  (iii)   to the extent the Investment Advisers manage other types of accounts (such as bank collective trusts, private wealth management accounts, institutional separate accounts, sub-advised mutual funds, and non-U.S. funds) having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds, comparative information on the advisory fees charged and services provided to those accounts by the Investment Advisers;
  (f)   with respect to the extensive investment performance and expense comparison data provided by the Outside Data Provider, its processes in producing that data for the Funds;
  (g)  

the undertakings of GSAM to waive a portion of its management fee with respect to the Bond Fund and the undertakings of the Investment Advisers to limit certain expenses of each Fund that exceed specified levels, and a summary of

 

148


GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI SECTOR FIXED INCOME FUNDS

 

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

 

  contractual fee reductions made by the Investment Advisers and/or their affiliates over the past several years with respect to the Funds;
  (h)   information relating to the profitability of the Management Agreements and the transfer agency and distribution and service arrangements of each Fund and the Trust as a whole to the Investment Advisers and their affiliates;
  (i)   whether each Fund’s existing management fee schedule adequately addressed any economies of scale;
  (j)   a summary of the “fall-out” benefits derived by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates from their relationships with the Funds, including the fees received by the Investment Advisers’ affiliates from the Funds for transfer agency, portfolio trading, distribution and other services;
  (k)   a summary of potential benefits derived by the Funds as a result of their relationship with the Investment Advisers;
  (l)   information regarding portfolio trading and how the Investment Advisers carry out their duty to seek best execution;
  (m)   portfolio manager ownership of Fund shares; the manner in which portfolio manager compensation is determined; and the number and types of accounts managed by the portfolio managers;
  (n)   the nature and quality of the services provided to the Funds by their unaffiliated service providers, and the Investment Advisers’ general oversight and evaluation (including reports on due diligence) of those service providers as part of the administration services provided under the Management Agreements; and
  (o)   the Investment Advisers’ processes and policies addressing various types of potential conflicts of interest; their approach to risk management; the annual review of the effectiveness of the Funds’ compliance program; and periodic compliance reports.

The Trustees also received an overview of the Funds’ distribution arrangements. They received information regarding the Funds’ assets, share purchase and redemption activity and the payment of Rule 12b-1 distribution and service fees and non-Rule 12b-1 shareholder service and/or administration fees with respect to the Funds. Information was also provided to the Trustees relating to revenue sharing payments made by and services provided by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates to intermediaries that promote the sale, distribution, and/or servicing of Fund shares.

The presentations made at the Board and Committee meetings and at the Annual Meeting encompassed the Funds and other mutual fund portfolios for which the Board of Trustees has responsibility. In evaluating the Management Agreements at the Annual Meeting, the Trustees relied upon their knowledge, resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year, of the Investment Advisers and their affiliates, their services, and the Funds. In conjunction with these meetings, the Trustees received written materials and oral presentations on the topics covered, and were advised by their independent legal counsel regarding their responsibilities and other regulatory requirements related to the approval and continuation of mutual fund investment management agreements under applicable law. In addition, the Investment Advisers and their affiliates provided the Independent Trustees with a written response to a formal request for information sent on behalf of the Independent Trustees by their independent legal counsel. During the course of their deliberations, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions with their independent legal counsel, without representatives of the Investment Advisers or their affiliates present. The Independent Trustees also discussed the broad range of other investment choices that are available to Fund investors, including the availability of comparable funds managed by other advisers.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Management Agreements

As part of their review, the Trustees considered the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Investment Advisers. In this regard, the Trustees considered both the investment advisory services and non-advisory services that are provided by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates. The Trustees noted the transition in the leadership and changes in personnel of various of the Investment Advisers’ portfolio management teams that had occurred in recent periods, and the ongoing recruitment efforts aimed at bringing high quality investment talent to the Investment Advisers. They also noted the Investment Advisers’ commitment to maintaining high quality systems. The Trustees concluded that the Investment Advisers continued to commit substantial financial and operational resources to the Funds and expressed confidence that the Investment Advisers would continue to do so in the future. The Trustees also recognized that the Investment Advisers had made significant commitments to address regulatory compliance requirements applicable to the Funds and the Investment Advisers.

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Fund to its peers using rankings and ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2014, and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Advisers using the peer groups identified by the Outside Data Provider as of March 31, 2015. The information on each Fund’s investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ending on the applicable dates, to the extent that each Fund had been in existence for those periods. The

 

149


GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI SECTOR FIXED INCOME FUNDS

 

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

 

Trustees also reviewed each Fund’s investment performance over time (including on a year-by-year basis) relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Funds over time, and reviewed the investment performance of each Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions. The Trustees also received information comparing the Funds’ performance (with the exception of the Global Income Fund) to that of composites of accounts with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Advisers.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Advisers’ senior management and portfolio management personnel, in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Advisers’ periodic reports with respect to the Funds’ risk profiles, and how the Investment Advisers’ approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

The Trustees observed that the Bond Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the first quartile of the Fund’s peer group for the three- and five-year periods and third quartile for the one-year period, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the three- and five-year periods and underperformed for the one-year period ended March 31, 2015. They also noted changes to the Fund’s target duration made in September 2014. They noted that the Core Fixed Income Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the second quartile of the Fund’s peer group for the one-, three-, and five-year periods and in the third quartile for the ten-year period, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the three- and five-year periods and underperformed for the one- and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2015. The Trustees noted that the Global Income Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the three-year period and underperformed for the one-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2015. The Trustees observed that the Strategic Income Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the first quartile of the Fund’s peer group for the three-year period and in the fourth quartile for the one-year period; had outperformed the Fund’s LIBOR-based benchmark index by 3.95% for the three-year period and underperformed by 2.70% for the one-year period; and had outperformed the average performance of a group of competitor funds, as determined by GSAM, for the three-year period and underperformed for the one-year period ended March 31, 2015.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

The Trustees considered the contractual terms of the Management Agreements and the fee rates payable by each Fund under its respective Management Agreement. In this regard, the Trustees considered information on the services rendered by the Investment Advisers to the Funds, which included both advisory and administrative services that were directed to the needs and operations of the Funds as registered mutual funds.

In particular, the Trustees reviewed analyses prepared by the Outside Data Provider regarding the expense rankings of the Funds. The analyses provided a comparison of the Funds’ management fees and breakpoints to those of relevant peer groups and category universes; an expense analysis which compared each Fund’s overall net and gross expenses to a peer group and a category universe; and a five-year history (or, in the case of Funds that commenced investment operations within a shorter period, since the year in which it commenced operations) comparing each Fund’s net expenses to the peer and category medians. The analyses also compared each Fund’s transfer agency, custody, and distribution fees, other expenses and fee waivers/reimbursements to those of the peer group and category medians. The Trustees concluded that the comparisons provided by the Outside Data Provider were useful in evaluating the reasonableness of the management fees and total expenses paid by the Funds.

In addition, the Trustees considered GSAM’s undertakings to waive a portion of its management fees with respect to the Bond Fund and the Investment Advisers’ undertakings to limit certain expenses of each Fund that exceed specified levels. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Advisers manage other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Advisers to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Funds differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Advisers to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

In addition, the Trustees noted that shareholders are able to redeem their Fund shares at any time if shareholders believe that the Fund fees and expenses are too high or if they are dissatisfied with the performance of the Fund.

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed the Investment Advisers’ revenues and pre-tax profit margins with respect to the Trust and each of the Funds. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Advisers’ expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Advisers for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions

 

150


GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI SECTOR FIXED INCOME FUNDS

 

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

 

among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization had audited the expense allocation methodology and was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Advisers’ expense allocation methodology and profitability analysis calculations. Profitability data for the Trust and each Fund were provided for 2014 and 2013, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Advisers’ overall profitability. The Trustees considered the Investment Advisers’ revenues and pre-tax profit margins both in absolute terms and in comparison to information on the reported pre-tax profit margins earned by certain other asset management firms.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding the Investment Advisers’ profitability. The Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreements for each of the Funds at the following annual percentage rates of the average daily net assets of the Funds:

 

Average Daily

Net Assets

 

Bond

Fund

   

Core Fixed
Income

Fund

   

Global

Income
Fund

   

Strategic

Income

Fund

 
First $1 billion     0.45     0.40     0.65     0.60
Next $1 billion     0.41        0.36        0.59        0.54   
Next $3 billion     0.39        0.34        0.56        0.51   
Next $3 billion     0.38        0.33        0.55        0.50   
Over $8 billion     0.37        0.32        0.54        0.49   

The Trustees noted that the breakpoints were designed to share potential economies of scale, if any, with the Funds and their shareholders as assets under management reach those asset levels. The Trustees considered the amounts of assets in the Funds; the Funds’ recent share purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Advisers relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates and their realized profits; information comparing fee rates charged by the Investment Advisers with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer groups; and GSAM’s undertakings to waive a portion of its management fees with respect to the Bond Fund and the Investment Advisers’ undertakings to limit certain expenses of each Fund that exceed specified levels. Upon reviewing these matters at the Annual Meeting, the Trustees concluded that the fee breakpoints represented a means of assuring that benefits of scalability, if any, would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels. They also noted that GSAM had passed along savings to shareholders of the Core Fixed Income and Strategic Income Funds, which each had asset levels above at least the first breakpoint during the prior fiscal year.

Other Benefits to the Investment Advisers and Their Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates from their relationships with the Funds as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman, Sachs & Co. (“Goldman Sachs”); (b) futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing futures transactions on behalf of the Funds; (c) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Funds with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Advisers; (d) the Investment Advisers’ ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Funds on behalf of their other clients; (e) the Investment Advisers’ ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (f) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Fund Distributor; (g) the Investment Advisers’ ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of their other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Funds; and (h) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Advisers and the Funds’ third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Funds and Their Shareholders

The Trustees also noted that the Funds receive certain potential benefits as a result of their relationship with the Investment Advisers, including: (a) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Funds with those of other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Advisers; (b) enhanced servicing from vendors because of the volume of business generated by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates; (c) enhanced servicing from broker-dealers because of the volume of business generated by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates; (d) the Investment Advisers’ ability to negotiate favorable terms with derivatives counterparties on behalf of the Funds as a result of the size and reputation of the Goldman Sachs organization; (e) the Investment

 

151


GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI SECTOR FIXED INCOME FUNDS

 

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

 

Advisers’ knowledge and experience gained from managing other accounts and products; (f) the Investment Advisers’ ability to hire and retain qualified personnel to provide services to the Funds because of the reputation of the Goldman Sachs organization; (g) the Funds’ access, through the Investment Advisers, to certain firmwide resources (e.g., proprietary risk management systems and databases), subject to certain restrictions; and (h) the Funds’ access to certain affiliated distribution channels. In addition, the Trustees noted the competitive nature of the mutual fund marketplace, and considered that many of the Funds’ shareholders invested in the Funds in part because of the Funds’ relationship with the Investment Advisers and that those shareholders have a general expectation that the relationship will continue.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreements, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by each of the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by its respective Investment Adviser, the Investment Advisers’ costs and each Fund’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Advisers’ continued management likely would benefit each applicable Fund and its shareholders and that the Management Agreements should be approved and continued with respect to each applicable Fund until June 30, 2016.

Item 4(e)(1) — Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Services Provided to the Funds of the Goldman Sachs Trust. The Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the “Policy”) adopted by the Audit Committee of Goldman Sachs Trust (“GST”) sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which services performed by an independent auditor for GST may be pre-approved. Services may be pre-approved specifically by the Audit Committee as a whole or, in certain circumstances, by the Audit Committee Chairman or the person designated as the Audit Committee Financial Expert. In addition, subject to specified cost limitations, certain services may be pre-approved under the provisions of the Policy. The Policy provides that the Audit Committee will consider whether the services provided by an independent auditor are consistent with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules on auditor independence. The Policy provides for periodic review and pre-approval by the Audit Committee of the services that may be provided by the independent auditor.

De Minimis Waiver. The pre-approval requirements of the Policy may be waived with respect to the provision of non-audit services that are permissible for an independent auditor to perform, provided (1) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than five percent of the total amount of revenues subject to pre-approval that was paid to the independent auditors during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (2) such services were not recognized by GST at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (3) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Audit Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee to whom authority to grant such approvals has been delegated by the Audit Committee, pursuant to the pre-approval provisions of the Policy.

Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services Provided to GST’s Investment Advisers. The Policy provides that, in addition to requiring pre-approval of audit and non-audit services provided to GST, the Audit Committee will pre-approve those non-audit services provided to GST’s investment advisers (and entities controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment advisers that provide ongoing services to GST) where the engagement relates directly to the operations or financial reporting of GST.

Item 4(e)(2) – 0% of the audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees listed in Table 1 were approved by GST’s Audit Committee pursuant to the “de minimis” exception of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X. In addition, 0% of the non-audit services to the GST’s service affiliates listed in Table 2 were approved by GST’s Audit Committee pursuant to the “de minimis” exception of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

Item 4(f) – Not applicable.

Item 4(g) Aggregate Non-Audit Fees Disclosure

The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST by PwC for the twelve months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014 were approximately $659,410 and $723,485 respectively. The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST’s adviser and service affiliates by PwC for non-audit services for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were approximately $10.2 million and $9.8 million respectively. With regard to the aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST’s adviser and service affiliates, the 2014 and 2013 amounts include fees for non-audit services required to be pre-approved [see Table 2] and fees for non-audit services that did not require pre-approval since they did not directly relate to GST’s operations or financial reporting.

Item 4(h) — GST’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services to GST’s investment adviser and service affiliates that did not require pre-approval pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence.
