LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

Dear Valued Shareholder,

We sincerely thank you for your continued business and support. Our primary objective is to help you achieve your investment goals, and we’re grateful you have placed your confidence in us. We aim to earn your trust through competitive investment performance and excellent client service. We hope we have met your expectations in both of these measures, and we look forward to continuing to serve as your asset manager in the months and years to come.

During the 12 months through March 31, 2016, the U.S. economy continued to grow, albeit at a slower pace than last year. The U.S. Federal Reserve in December 2015 took its first steps toward unwinding its long-running stimulus efforts, raising the federal funds rate by 25 basis points. However, the relatively weak improvement of the U.S. economy suggests that the Fed will move slowly to raise interest rates in the near term.

Two major themes during the period were the sharp decline in commodity prices and the strength of the U.S. dollar. These factors caused corporate earnings to struggle, posing headwinds for stocks. However, these headwinds currently appear to be ebbing as commodity prices—particularly the price of oil—have rebounded and the dollar has given back some of the considerable gains experienced since 2014.

Outside the U.S., countries such as China and Brazil struggled to realign economic priorities, contain excess debt and limit political turmoil, while slow economic growth challenged the euro zone. Central banks in many international markets adopted increasingly aggressive stimulus measures. We remain concerned that monetary policies abroad may be nearing the limits of their effectiveness, and we believe the decision by the European Central Bank and other central banks to push interest rates into uncharted negative territory has the potential to disrupt the global economy. We do expect, however, international developed markets to continue to recover, due in part to the continued strength of the U.S. economy, which is shouldering much of the burden of the global economic recovery.

Looking ahead, we believe bond yields will remain relatively low, but the Fed’s intention is to normalize monetary policy. The decline in commodity prices stoked concerns about certain bond issuers over the past year, especially those in the energy sector. This year will be key in terms of observing which ones will be able to service their debt.

Our outlook for the equity markets remains favorable, but with increased volatility due to the presidential race and global macro-headlines. We see opportunities in all equity styles. Finally, we continue to believe that a gradually firming economic environment will offer fresh opportunities to selective investors. We expect this opportunistic environment should mesh well with RidgeWorth’s bottom-up approach to security selection. We at RidgeWorth wish to thank you again for the trust and confidence you have placed in us, and we look forward to another successful year together.

Sincerely,

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of this Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes. Common stocks, and funds investing in common stocks, generally provide greater return potential when compared with other types of investments.

Small- and mid-capitalization funds typically carry additional risks as smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Aggressive Growth Stock Fund (I Shares) returned -4.74%. That compared to a 1.34% return for the Russell 3000® Growth Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Global and domestic economic mayhem created two record-level spikes in equity volatility during the 12-month period. The Fund’s higher beta holdings bore the brunt of selling pressure. While the Fund rebounded significantly two out of four quarters, gains were not enough to compensate for the remaining quarters’ weakness, and absolute returns suffered during the 12 months through March 31, 2016.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its benchmark was attributable to active stock selection in the financial services, healthcare and technology sectors. Consumer discretionary holdings added positive excess returns.

Among the Fund’s key detractors: XPO Logistics, Inc., underperformed amid negative response to acquisitions and exposure to the industrial business cycle. Chinese macroeconomic issues and competitor-related concerns were reflected in Vipshop Holdings Limited share performance. While concerns over possible legal and regulatory issues pressured shares of LendingClub Corporation.

Key contributors to relative returns included the following: Netflix, Inc., exceeded domestic and international subscriber guidance, while delivering profitability in new markets. Amazon.com, Inc., achieved record revenues through growth in web services, fulfillment and third-party seller participation. Tesla Motors, Inc., shares advanced on unit volume growth, ahead-of-schedule build-out for its Gigafactory and anticipation of its Model 3 automobile debut.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

Underperformance in the Fund does not necessarily lead us to make position changes as we continue to focus on company fundamentals. Many of the same companies that underperformed during the past year are still in the portfolio, and given the pull-back in stock prices, represent good potential drivers to future returns.

In times of significant stock volatility, we find great comfort in companies with excellent management teams— especially those that are founder-led. These companies tend to be more innovative, likely to make bold investments to renew or adapt business models and demonstrate a willingness to take risk to invent the future. An owner’s mindset is imperative, with speed to act and personal responsibility for risk and cost—a key strategic asset. Nearly 70% of the Fund’s holdings have founders among its leadership teams.

Investors likely still harbor excessive pessimism: Recent short interest figures are higher than the March 2009 nadir. As yet another panic and recovery demonstrates, the price of overreaction—and non-participation—may be the difference between exceeding objectives and being left in the dust. Invest with conviction.

Growth of a $10,000 Investment (as of March 31, 2016)

 

LOGO     

This chart assumes an initial hypothetical investment of $10,000 made on 3/31/06. Total return is based on net change in the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) assuming reinvestment of distributions. Returns shown on this page include reinvestment of all dividends and other distributions.

 

The Fund’s performance is compared to the Russell 3000® Growth Index, which measures the performance of the broad growth segment of the U.S. equity universe. It includes those Russell 3000® companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The Index is unmanaged and does not reflect the deduction of fees, such as investment and fund accounting fees, associated with a mutual fund. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Because equity markets may be volatile in the short-term, resulting in unusually high or low performance, investors should evaluate long-term performance before making an investment.

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses until at least August 1, 2016 in order to keep total operating expenses (excluding underlying fund fees and expenses) from exceeding 1.50% and 1.30% for A and I Shares, respectively. Without these fee waivers, performance would have been lower.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance data quoted represents past performance and current returns may be lower or higher. Total return figures include change in share price, reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the redemption of fund shares. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Companies within the infrastructure, agribusiness and timber industries are susceptible to adverse economic or regulatory factors which may affect the Fund’s performance.

Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of this Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes. Common stocks, and funds investing in common stocks, generally provide greater return potential when compared with other types of investments.

Small- and Mid-capitalization funds typically carry additional risks since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure.

Large-capitalization stocks can perform differently from other segments of the equity market or the equity market as a whole. Large capitalization companies may be less flexible in evolving markets or unable to implement change as quickly as smaller capitalization companies.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the period ended March 31, 2016?

The Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund (I Shares) delivered a -20.48% return. That compared to a -15.30% return for the S&P Global Natural Resources Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the period ended March 31, 2016?

The U.S. dollar gained against most major currencies during the period under review, while commodity prices declined substantially. Oil prices in particular declined sharply; major Middle East oil-producing nations maintained production levels while North American drillers decreased output. This environment contributed to the Fund’s negative absolute returns.

The Fund’s relative performance was hurt by an overweight position in the paper and forest products industry, which was impacted by investors’ fears about falling prices. Exposure to cyclical commodities also detracted from performance, as fertilizers, containerboard and timber came under pressure during the first three quarters of the period. In particular, oversupply of fertilizer, especially in China and India, pushed down fertilizer producers’ valuations. Exposure to shares of a global energy firm detracted from relative performance, as concerns mounted over its long-term earnings ability. An investment in a Texas energy infrastructure company also dragged on the Fund’s returns, as its shares declined following a dividend cut in response to the falling price of crude oil.

An underweight position in metals and mining stocks—part of the materials sector—helped the Fund’s relative returns. That said, the Fund benefited from an overweight position in a Canadian gold mining firm, as fears about a potential global recession drove up prices for gold and shares of gold-mining firms. An underweight position in a multinational metals, mining and petroleum firm also helped performance relative to the benchmark, as the company’s shares dropped following an accident at one of its facilities. In addition, an underweight position in a diversified metals and commodities producer aided relative performance, as investors grew concerned about the firm’s ability to repay its debt.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We remain moderately upbeat about the global economic outlook, even as investor skepticism remains widespread. We expect industrial production growth to solidify gradually over the next several months, which we believe will provide a tailwind for commodity demand and prices. In addition, as global growth concerns dwindle we expect commodity prices to move higher.

Our research indicates that we are in the later stages of the economic cycle. As a result, inflation may become more of a concern going forward. Within this framework, sectors such as energy and commodities tend to benefit.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The International Equity Fund (I Shares) delivered a -1.59% return. That compared to a -9.19% for the MSCI ACWI Ex-U.S. Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

International equity markets generally declined during the period under review. Concerns about the health of the euro zone economy prompted the European Central Bank (ECB) to strengthen stimulus measures intended to spur economic growth. Other central banks around the world, including in China and Japan, also adopted stimulus measures to prop up weak economies. Meanwhile, flagging commodity prices, including sharp declines in the price of oil, put pressure on emerging markets. The U.S. dollar gained against most major currencies, and U.S. stocks outperformed international stocks. In this environment, strong stock selection helped the Fund post positive absolute returns.

The Fund’s relative performance also benefited from effective stock selection. Individual holdings in the health care, information technology and materials sectors particularly helped the Fund out-perform its benchmark. Shares of two Danish companies generated especially strong results. One, a developer of natural ingredients, enjoyed strong demand for its products, especially animal feed; the other, a provider of kidney, gastroenterology, and other intimate health care products and services, debuted a new product in collaboration with another Danish medical technology company. A Canadian software company and a Japanese electronics manufacturer also boosted the Fund’s relative return.

The Fund’s bottom-up structural biases—underweight positions in the financial and energy sectors, and overweight positions in information technology and consumer staples—benefited its return relative to the benchmark. Consumer staples was the best-performing sector in the index, while financial services was the second-worst.

The Fund’s relative performance was dampened by the selection of industrial stocks, chiefly exposure to a Dutch manufacturer of sensors and to a Canadian railway line that failed in its acquisition bid of an American railroad. From a sector perspective, our overweight position in health care and underweight position in telecommunications and utilities softened the Fund’s performance.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

The firm plans to maintain its bottom-up sector biases, with an overweight position in information technology, health care, and consumer staples, and an underweight position in financial services, energy and telecommunications. We will continue to focus on stock selection through our bottom-up investment approach.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Large Cap Growth Stock Fund (I Shares) returned -1.79%. That compared to a 2.52% return for the Russell 1000 Growth Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The period was marked by economic challenges both domestically and internationally. Investors worried about slowing economic growth in the U.S., Europe and China, as well as about volatile commodities prices and the U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate strategy. These factors contributed to record-level spikes in market volatility during the 12-month period. The Fund’s absolute returns suffered in this environment.

The majority of the Fund’s underperformance relative to the benchmark index was due to stock selection within the consumer staples, financials and healthcare sectors. The healthcare sector was the largest relative underperformer, as biotechnology stocks sold off amid election-year rhetoric about prescription drug price controls.

The Fund’s relative performance also suffered from lack of exposure to the telecommunications sector, which led sector performance during the period under review. An underweight position in consumer staples relative to the benchmark also dragged on performance. In addition, a position in a major financial services firm hurt relative returns.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

The portfolio managers seek to eliminate investment results that are directly attributed to market conditions, and instead attempt to drive performance through stock selection. Therefore, the Fund will continue to invest in companies with reasonable valuations and improving fundamentals. Generally, we look for companies that have shown year-over-year increases in operating margins, revenue growth and return on incremental invested capital. By combining income statement, balance sheet and cash flow metrics to evaluate earnings quality, capital efficiency and relative valuations, we can avoid making investment decisions based on a single factor.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of this Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.

Value-based investments are subject to the risk that the broad market may not recognize their intrinsic value.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Large Cap Value Equity Fund (I Shares) delivered a -2.19% return. That compared to a -1.54% return for the Russell 1000 Value Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

During the 12-month period, stocks faced major headwinds, including debt negotiations between Greece and the euro zone, Puerto Rico’s debt restructuring, re-emerging volatility in oil prices, and anxiety surrounding the U.S. Federal Reserve’s strategy for raising interest rates. Instability in international and U.S. markets weighed on the Fund’s absolute returns.

The portfolio management team does not attempt to position the Fund based on predictions of macro-economic conditions. The Fund employs a bottom-up investment approach to stock selection that seeks out dividend-paying stocks trading at the lower end of their historical trading ranges, and which display characteristics of financial strength and possess an improving fundamental situation. The Fund does not make active sector allocations but allows its bottom-up investment process to define sector weights.

The Fund’s relative performance was hurt by underweight positions in the consumer staples and utilities sectors. Exposure to three energy companies during a time of volatility in that sector detracted from relative performance, as did holdings in a global mass media company and a financial services company.

The Fund benefited from individual exposure to shares of a leading technology and software company, a healthcare company, a telecommunications company, and a supplier of semiconductor materials.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We will continue to maintain our disciplined, bottom-up fundamental stock analysis when choosing investments for the Fund. Our investment philosophy seeks out investments that meet three key criteria: the existence of a dividend, low valuations and improving fundamentals. In the current environment, we expect to maintain a pro-cyclical bias that includes overweight positions in the information technology and healthcare sectors, and underweight positions in the utilities and consumer staples sectors.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Small Cap Growth Stock Fund (I Shares) returned -13.30%. That compared to a -11.84% return for the Russell 2000 Growth Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The period was marked by economic challenges both domestically and internationally. Investors worried about slowing economic growth in the U.S., Europe and China, as well as about volatile commodities prices and the U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate strategy. These factors contributed to record-level spikes in market volatility during the 12-month period. The Fund’s absolute returns suffered in this environment.

Stock selection within the consumer discretionary sector was responsible for most of the Fund’s underperformance relative to the benchmark index. Specifically, holdings in an educational services provider, a home décor chain and automobile components manufacturer dragged on returns, as did holdings in a new home builder and an automotive sales and service firm. The Fund’s relative performance also was hurt by lack of exposure to a ski resort company that contributed to the benchmark’s performance.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

The portfolio managers seek to eliminate investment results that are directly attributed to market conditions, and instead attempt to drive performance through stock selection. Therefore, the Fund will continue to invest in companies with reasonable valuations and improving fundamentals. Generally, we look for companies that have shown year-over-year increases in operating margins, revenue growth and return on incremental invested capital. By combining income statement, balance sheet and cash flow metrics to evaluate earnings quality, capital efficiency and relative valuations, we can avoid making investment decisions based on a single factor.

The Fund does not make active sector allocations but allows its bottom-up investment process to define sector weights.

The Fund’s relative performance was boosted by exposure to individual stocks in the financial services sector, including three insurance companies. Holdings in a waste management company and a software company that measures consumer credit risk also contributed to the Fund’s relative returns.

An underweight position and stock selection in the energy sector detracted from the Fund’s relative performance. An overweight position in consumer discretionary stocks also dragged on relative returns, as did exposure to shares of an entertainment company, an interactive retailer and an electronics company.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We will continue to maintain our disciplined, bottom-up fundamental stock analysis when choosing investments for the Fund. Our investment philosophy seeks out investments that meet three key criteria: the existence of a dividend, low valuations and improving fundamentals. In the current environment, we expect to maintain a pro-cyclical bias that includes overweight positions in the consumer discretionary and industrials sectors, and underweight positions in the utilities sector. We also expect to maintain an underweight position in REITs and banks in the financials sector.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Equity Securities (Stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk and return potential than other forms of investments. Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate, providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Cash equivalents offer low risk and low return potential.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Aggressive Growth Allocation Strategy (I Shares) returned -4.67%, compared to a -4.67% return for the Lipper Mixed-Asset Target Allocation (Growth Classification)*, and a 1.98% return for its hybrid benchmark made up of an 80% weighting in the S&P 500 Index and a 20% weighting in the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

RidgeWorth Investments manages four distinct asset allocation strategies, each structured to align investment portfolios with specific levels of investor risk tolerance and income requirements. The underlying mutual funds and ETFs typically are the same across the Strategies, but different stock, bond and alternatives allocations create noticeably different total return characteristics, which are intended to align with investor needs and constraints.

The equity market rose very modestly during the 12-month period, despite being buffeted by a drop in oil prices and global economic uncertainty. Stocks gained when the Federal Reserve raised its target short-term interest rate in December, but then fell due to fears about the economy’s strength.

Amid those concerns, risk-averse investors sought relatively conservative options and defensive sectors. While large-cap stocks and longer-duration fixed income positions faired moderately well over the period, small-, mid-cap, and international stocks and high yield bonds struggled. Commodities declined sharply during the year, but erased some declines late in the period. That environment challenged the Fund’s absolute return.

Broadly speaking, since the S&P 500 equity index slightly underperformed the Barclays U.S. Aggregate bond index for the year, the strategy’s overweight to stocks was a net detractor in terms of relative performance versus its hybrid index. However, selected funds also detracted from relative total returns versus the blended benchmark, most notably from pronounced weakness in international mandates, as well as large-cap and small-cap growth mandates. In the fixed income space, exposure to cash, core, high yield and ultra-short mandates detracted from performance.

We actively and opportunistically reduced risk in the Fund throughout the period by trimming equities, rebuilding a long-dormant position in the GDX (Gold Miners) ETF, and maintaining bond portfolio durations close that of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate index.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We believe equities remain attractive relative to bonds in a period of rising rates, especially given historically low interest rates and upticks in inflation and wages. As such, we are maintaining a slightly overweight position in equities relative to the Fund’s target benchmarks, with a core equity position tilted slightly towards growth. The Fund holds overweight stakes in the technology, financials, industrials and consumer discretionary sectors, while maintaining relatively low exposures to developed international and emerging markets equities.

The Fund holds a nearly neutral duration to the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index. We would not be surprised to see the equity and fixed income markets undergo a period of consolidation in the short run, but we think it could be short-lived. In our estimation, investors facing near-zero interest rates are likely to continue to venture out the risk spectrum in search of income and total return.

Growth of a $10,000 Investment (as of March 31, 2016)

 

LOGO     

This chart assumes an initial hypothetical investment of $10,000 made on 3/31/06. Total return is based on net change in the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) assuming reinvestment of distributions. Returns shown on this page include reinvestment of all dividends and other distributions.

 

Effective September 30, 2012, the benchmark index for the Fund changed from the Standard & Poors 500 Index (“S&P 500 Index”) to the Hybrid 80/20 Blend Index. The Fund's performance is compared to the Hybrid 80/20 Blend Index.

 

The S&P 500 Index is widely regarded as a gauge of the U.S. equities market. This index includes 500 leading companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy. Although the S&P 500 Index focuses on the large cap segment of the market, with approximately 75% coverage of U.S. equities, it is also an ideal proxy for the total market. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a measure of the overall performance of the U.S. bond market. These indices are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of fees, such as investment and fund accounting fees, associated with a mutual fund. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Because equity markets may be volatile in the short-term, resulting in unusually high or low performance, investors should evaluate long-term performance before making an investment.

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses until at least August 1, 2016 in order to keep total operating expenses (excluding underlying fund fees and expenses) from exceeding 0.70%, 1.30% and 0.50% for A, C and I Shares, respectively. Without these fee waivers, performance would have been lower. The indirect expenses of the Fund, which represent a pro-rata share of the expenses of the underlying funds in which the Fund invests, totaled 0.73% of net assets and are included in the expense ratios listed in the table above.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance data quoted represents past performance and current returns may be lower or higher.

The Conservative Allocation Strategy (I Shares) returned -1.73%, compared to a -1.73% return for the Lipper Mixed-Asset Target Allocation (Conservative Classification)*, and a 2.12% return for its hybrid benchmark made up of a 30% weighting in the S&P 500 Index and a 70% weighting in the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Moderate Allocation Strategy (I Shares) returned -2.96%, compared to a -2.70% return for the Lipper Mixed-Asset Target Allocation (Moderate Classification)*, and a 2.12% return for its hybrid benchmark made up of a 50% weighting in the S&P 500 Index and a 50% weighting in the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

RidgeWorth Investments manages four distinct asset allocation strategies, each structured to align investment portfolios with specific levels of investor risk tolerance and income requirements. The underlying mutual funds and ETFs typically are the same across the Strategies, but different stock, bond and alternatives allocations create noticeably different total return characteristics, which are intended to align with investor needs and constraints.

The equity market rose very modestly during the 12-month period, despite being buffeted by a drop in oil prices and global economic uncertainty. Stocks gained when the Federal Reserve raised its target short-term interest rate in December, but then fell due to fears about the economy’s strength.

Amid those concerns, risk-averse investors sought relatively conservative options and defensive sectors. While large-cap stocks and longer-duration fixed income positions faired moderately well over the period, small-, mid-cap, and international stocks and high yield bonds struggled. Commodities declined sharply during the year, but erased some declines late in the period. That environment challenged the Fund’s absolute return.

Broadly speaking, since the S&P 500 equity index slightly underperformed the Barclays U.S. Aggregate bond index for the year, the strategy’s overweight to stocks was a net detractor in terms of relative performance versus its hybrid index. However, selected funds also detracted from relative total returns versus the blended benchmark, most notably from pronounced weakness in international mandates, as well as large-cap and small-cap growth mandates. In the fixed income space, exposure to cash, core, high yield and ultra-short mandates detracted from performance.

We actively and opportunistically reduced risk in the Fund throughout the period by trimming equities, rebuilding a long-dormant position in the GDX (Gold Miners) ETF, and maintaining bond portfolio durations close that of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate index.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We believe equities remain attractive relative to bonds in a period of rising rates, especially given historically low interest rates and upticks in inflation and wages. As such, we are maintaining a slightly overweight position in equities relative to the Fund’s target benchmarks, with a core equity position tilted slightly towards growth. The Fund holds overweight stakes in the technology, financials, industrials and consumer discretionary sectors, while maintaining relatively low exposures to developed international and emerging markets equities.

The Fund holds a nearly neutral duration to the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index. We would not be surprised to see the equity and fixed income markets undergo a period of consolidation in the short run, but we think it could be short-lived. In our estimation, investors facing near-zero interest rates are likely to continue to venture out the risk spectrum in search of income and total return.

MODERATE ALLOCATION STRATEGY

 

 

Growth of a $10,000 Investment (as of March 31, 2016)

 

LOGO     

This chart assumes an initial hypothetical investment of $10,000 made on 3/31/06. Total return is based on net change in the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) assuming reinvestment of distributions. Returns shown on this page include reinvestment of all dividends and other distributions.

 

The Fund’s performance is compared to the Hybrid 50/50 Blend Index. The Standard & Poors 500 Index (“S&P 500 Index”) is widely regarded as a gauge of the U.S. equities market. This index includes 500 leading companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy. Although the S&P 500 Index focuses on the large cap segment of the market, with approximately 75% coverage of U.S. equities, it is also an ideal proxy for the total market. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a measure of the overall performance of the U.S. bond market. These indices are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of fees, such as investment and fund accounting fees, associated with a mutual fund. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Because equity markets may be volatile in the short-term, resulting in unusually high or low performance, investors should evaluate long-term performance before making an investment.

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive fees and reimburse expenses until at least August 1, 2016 in order to keep total operating expenses (excluding underlying fund fees and expenses) from exceeding 0.70%, 1.30% and 0.50% for A, C and I Shares, respectively. Without these fee waivers, performance would have been lower. The indirect expenses of the Fund, which represent a pro-rata share of the expenses of the underlying funds in which the Fund invests, totaled 0.59% of net assets and are included in the expense ratios listed in the table above.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance data quoted represents past performance and current returns may be lower or higher. Total return figures include change in share price, reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the redemption of fund shares. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. For performance data current to the most recent month end, visit our website at www.ridgeworth.com.

* Class C Shares were offered beginning on 4/5/05. The performance shown prior to such dates is based on performance of the I Shares of the Fund, and has not been adjusted to reflect C Share expenses. If it had been, performance would have been lower.

 

** Class A Share performance reflects the maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75% and Class C Shares reflect the maximum CDSC (contingent deferred sales charge) of 1.00% in year one only.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

1. Organization

RidgeWorth Funds (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares without par value. The financial statements presented herein are those of the Aggressive Growth Stock Fund, Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund, International Equity Fund, Large Cap Growth Stock Fund, Large Cap Value Equity Fund, Mid-Cap Value Equity Fund, Small Cap Growth Stock Fund, Small Cap Value Equity Fund, Aggressive Growth Allocation Strategy, Conservative Allocation Strategy, Growth Allocation Strategy and Moderate Allocation Strategy (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), which are each a diversified series of the Trust. Effective the close of business on February 19, 2016, Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund, a new series of the Trust, acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of the Capital Innovations Global Agri, Timber, Infrastructure Fund (“Predecessor Fund”), a series of Investment Managers Series Trust, in a tax-free reorganization.

The Aggressive Growth Stock Fund offers I Shares and A Shares. The International Equity Fund offers I Shares, A Shares and IS Shares. The Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund, Small Cap Value Equity Fund, Aggressive Growth Allocation Strategy, Conservative Allocation Strategy, Growth Allocation Strategy and Moderate Allocation Strategy offer I Shares, A Shares and C Shares. The Large Cap Growth Stock Fund, Large Cap Value Equity Fund, Mid-Cap Value Equity Fund and Small Cap Growth Stock Fund offer I Shares, A Shares, C Shares and IS Shares.

The assets of each Fund are segregated and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. Each class of shares has identical rights and privileges except with respect to fees paid under the Distribution and Service Plan and the Shareholder Servicing Plan (“Plan”), voting rights on matters affecting a single class of shares and sales charges. The A Shares of the Funds (except Conservative Allocation Strategy) have a maximum sales charge on purchases of 5.75% as a percentage of original purchase price. Conservative Allocation Strategy A Shares have a maximum sales charge on purchases of 4.75% as a percentage of original purchase price. Certain purchases of A Shares will not be subject to a front-end sales charge but will be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 0.75%, if redeemed within two years of purchase. The deferred sales charge may be waived from time to time for certain broker-dealers that waive payment of compensation to them. The C Shares have a maximum CDSC of 1.00% as a percentage of either the original purchase price or the next calculated price after the Funds receive a redemption request, whichever is less, if shares are redeemed within one year of purchase. There is no sales charge on purchases of I Shares or IS Shares.

The Trust’s officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust. However, based on experience, the Trust expects that risk of loss to be remote.

The Funds are each an investment company and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following are significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). Estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ.

(a) Investment Valuation — Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last reported sales price or official closing price on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. The prices are provided by independent pricing vendors approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”).

The Funds, in accordance with GAAP, have adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification Topic 820 (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 establishes a single definition of fair value, creates a three-tier hierarchy as a

 

62


Table of Contents

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (continued)

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

framework for measuring fair value based on inputs used to value the Funds’ investments, and requires additional disclosure about fair value. The hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

 

    Level 1 — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. Investments in underlying funds are valued at their Net Asset Value (“NAV”) daily and are classified as Level 1 prices.

 

    Level 2 — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include less liquid equities and certain equity securities listed or traded on foreign security exchanges which include a fair valuation adjustment factor applied to their equity prices as of the end of the period.

 

    Level 3 — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the Funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the Funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the Funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the Funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the Funds’ results of operations.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The Funds use valuation techniques to measure fair value that are consistent with the market approach and/or income approach, depending on the type of security and the particular circumstance. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable securities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to discount estimated future cash flows to present value. Exchange Traded Funds are traded on a securities exchange. The market prices of index-based investments will fluctuate in accordance with changes in the underlying portfolio securities of the investment company and also due to supply and demand of the investment company’s shares on the exchange upon which the shares are traded.

When reliable prices are not readily available, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, but before each Fund calculates its NAV, each of the Funds will value the security as determined in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Procedures approved by the Board. The Pricing and Valuation Procedures are performed and monitored by a Valuation Committee (the “Committee”) designated by the Board. Some of the more common reasons which may necessitate that a security be fair valued in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Procedures include, but are not limited to: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from a national exchange; the security’s primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when, under normal conditions, it would be open; or the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price. When a security is fair valued in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Procedures, the Committee determines the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee. Under the Pricing and Valuation Procedures, such securities may be considered Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Short-term obligations with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, and such securities are considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Certain Funds hold securities or other assets that are denominated in a foreign currency. The Funds will normally use the currency exchange rates as of 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) when valuing such assets.

The assets of Aggressive Growth Allocation Strategy, Conservative Allocation Strategy, Growth Allocation Strategy and Moderate Allocation Strategy (the “Allocation Strategies”) consist of investments in other funds including affiliated Funds (See Note 7), which are valued at their respective daily net asset values. Recognition of net investment income by the Allocation Strategies is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the other funds in which the Allocation Strategies invest. Also, in addition to the Allocation Strategies’ direct expenses, shareholders bear a proportionate share of the underlying funds’ expenses. Each underlying fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings are outlined in the underlying funds’ financial statements and are available upon request.

1 Please see the Schedule of Portfolio Investments for Sector or Country Classification.
2 For additional information regarding the investments of the underlying RidgeWorth Funds, please call 1-888-784-3863 or visit www.ridgeworthfunds.com.

The Funds’ policy is to disclose transfers between levels based on valuations at the end of the reporting period. Each portfolio may hold securities which are periodically fair valued in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Procedures. This may result in movements between Level 1 and Level 2 throughout the fiscal year. As of March 31, 2016, securities valued at $16,554,943 were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 pursuant to the Pricing and Valuation Procedures for International Equity Fund. The transfers were a result of certain foreign equity securities including a fair valuation adjustment factor no longer being applied to their equity prices as of March 31, 2016.

(b) Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Domestic and foreign dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or as soon as practicable after the Funds determine the existence of a dividend declaration after exercising reasonable due diligence. The cost of

 

65


Table of Contents

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (continued)

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method. Distributions from gains from underlying funds, if any, are recorded as realized gains on the ex-dividend date.

(c) Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income of each of the Funds are declared and paid annually to shareholders of record. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are declared at least annually. Distributions to shareholders from each of the Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

(d) Distributions from Underlying Funds — Distributions received from underlying funds, whether in the form of cash or securities, are applied as a reduction of the investment’s cost when identified by the underlying fund as a return of capital. Once the investment’s cost is received, any further distributions are recognized as realized gains.

(e) Expenses and Share Class Accounting — Expenses that are directly related to a specific Fund are charged to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are allocated pro-rata to the Funds on the basis of relative net assets or another appropriate basis. Investment income, common expenses, and realized/unrealized capital gains (losses) on investments are allocated to the various share classes of the Funds on the basis of relative daily net assets of each share class. Fees relating to a specific share class are charged directly to the share class.

(f) Foreign Currency Translation — Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing exchange rates, as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time), on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of such transactions.

The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments and foreign currencies.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, including gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded and the amount actually received.

(g) Securities Lending — Each Fund may lend portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and other financial organizations that meet capital and other credit requirements or other criteria established by the Board. These loans may not exceed either (i) 50% of the sum of the market value of all securities of the Fund and the market value of securities purchased with cash collateral or (ii) 33.33% of the total market value of all securities of the Fund. No Fund will lend portfolio securities to its investment adviser, subadviser, or its affiliates unless it has applied for and received specific authority to do so from the Securities and Exchange Commission. Loans of portfolio securities are required to be fully collateralized by cash, letters of credit or U.S. government securities. The initial value of the collateral must be at least 102% of the market value of the securities loaned, if the securities loaned are U.S. securities (105% for non-U.S. securities); and maintained in an amount equal to at least 100% (103% for non-U.S. securities) thereafter. However, due to market fluctuations during the day, the value of securities loaned on a particular day may exceed the value of collateral. On each business day, the amount of collateral is adjusted based on the prior day’s market fluctuations and the current day’s lending activity. Income from lending activity is determined by the amount of interest earned on collateral, less any amounts payable to the borrowers of the securities and the lending agent. Lending securities involves certain risks; including the risk that a Fund may be delayed or prevented from recovering the collateral if the borrower fails to return the securities. A fee will be obtained from the borrower if letters of credit or U.S. government securities are used as collateral. For International Equity Fund, Large Cap Growth Stock Fund, Mid-Cap Value Equity Fund and Small Cap Growth Stock Fund, all of the securities on loan are classified as Common Stock in each Fund’s Schedule of Investments, and remaining contractual maturity of agreements are classified as overnight and continuous as of March 31, 2016.

The Funds, in accordance with guidance presented, have adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (‘‘ASU 2014-11”), Balance Sheet (Topic) 860: Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. ASU 2014-11 is intended to provide increased transparency about the types of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and other similar transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowing.

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

(h) Real Estate Investment Trusts — Certain Funds may own shares of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) which report information on the source of their distributions annually. The Funds re-characterize distributions received from REIT investments based on information provided by the REITs into the following categories: ordinary income, long-term capital gains, and return of capital. If information is not available on a timely basis from the REITs, the re-characterization will be estimated based on available information which may include the previous year’s allocation. If new or additional information becomes available from the REITs at a later date, a re-characterization will be made in the following year. The Funds record as dividend income the amount re-characterized as ordinary income and as realized gain the amount re-characterized as long-term capital gain in the Statements of Operations, and the amount re-characterized as a return of capital as a reduction to the cost of investments in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and in the Schedules of Portfolio Investments. These re-characterizations are reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

(i) Restricted Securities — Certain Funds’ investments are restricted as to resale. All of these restricted securities have been deemed liquid by the Funds’ Investment Adviser based upon procedures approved by the Board, unless stated otherwise in the Funds’ Schedules of Portfolio Investments. As of March 31, 2016, the Funds did not have any restricted securities.

(j) Foreign Investment Risks — Certain Funds may invest in securities of foreign issuers in various countries. Investments in securities of foreign issuers carry certain risks not ordinarily associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks include future political and economic developments, and the possible imposition of exchange controls or other foreign governmental laws and restrictions. In addition, with respect to certain countries, there is a possibility of expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation, political or social instability or diplomatic developments, which could adversely affect investments in those countries. Emerging market countries are countries that the World Bank or the United Nations considers to be emerging or developing. Emerging markets may be more likely to experience political turmoil or rapid changes in market or economic conditions than more developed countries. In addition, the financial stability of issuers, including governments, in emerging market countries may be more precarious than in other countries. As a result, there may be an increased risk of price volatility associated with a Fund’s investments in emerging market countries, which may be magnified by currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar. Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for additional risks that may be associated with the Funds.

For securities subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.

(k) Federal and Other Taxes — It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the federal income and excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the Funds intend to distribute taxable income and net realized gains, if any, to shareholders in accordance with timing requirements imposed by the Code. Therefore, no federal or state income tax provision is required in the Funds’ financial statements.

Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of March 31, 2016, no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue. As of March 31, 2016, open tax years include the tax years of March 31, 2013 through 2016.

Under the applicable foreign tax laws, a withholding tax may be imposed on interest, dividends and capital gains at various rates. The Funds will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon their current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which they invest.

(l) Reclassification — GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per share.

(m) Line of Credit —The Funds entered into a committed unsecured revolving line of credit agreement (“LOC”) with a syndicate of banks which includes State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street Bank”) and Royal Bank of Canada (“RBC”), for an aggregate amount of $200,000,000. The proceeds may be used only to (1) temporarily finance the

 

67


Table of Contents

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (continued)

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

purchase and sale of securities; or (2) finance the redemption of shares of the Funds. The Funds will pay a commitment fee on a pro rata basis to State Street Bank and RBC, in the amount of 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the LOC. Borrowings under the LOC will accrue interest at the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate, or (b) the One-month LIBOR Rate, plus 1.25% per annum. Generally, repayments must be made within 60 days of the borrowings. Commitment fees and interest expense paid to State Street Bank and RBC pursuant to this agreement are reflected on the Statements of Operations as a component of Other Fees. Prior to the September 23, 2015 syndicated agreement, a credit agreement with State Street Bank permitted an aggregate amount of $250,000,000 under similar terms and interest rates as described above. As of March 31, 2016, the Aggressive Growth Stock Fund and Small Cap Value Equity Fund had outstanding borrowings under the LOC.

The following Funds had an outstanding loan during the year. The borrowings were valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

     6,650         1,833,334         1.51        88   

(n) Master Limited Partnership — Certain Funds may invest in domestic master limited partnership (“MLPs”). MLPs are publicly traded companies organized as limited partnerships or limited liability companies and treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. An investment in MLP units involves risks in addition to the risks associated with a similar investment in equity securities, such as common stock, of a corporation. As compared to common shareholders of a corporation, holders of MLP units have more limited control and limited rights to vote on matters affecting the partnership. Additional risks inherent to investments in MLP units include cash flow risk, tax risk, risk associated with a potential conflict of interest between unit holders and the MLP’s general partner, and capital markets risk. Moreover, the value of the Fund’s investment in MLPs depends largely on the MLPs being treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If an MLP does not meet current legal requirements to maintain eligibility for partnership tax treatment, or if it is unable to do so because of tax law changes, it could be taxed as a corporation and there could be a material decrease in the value of its securities. Certain MLP securities may trade in lower volumes due to their smaller capitalizations. Accordingly, those MLPs may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements and may lack sufficient market liquidity to enable the Fund to effect sales at an advantageous time or without a substantial drop in price. MLPs are generally considered interest-rate sensitive investments. During periods of interest rate volatility, these investments may not provide attractive returns.

Distributions received from each Fund’s investments in MLPs may be comprised of both income and return of capital. Each Fund records investment income and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from MLPs after their tax reporting periods are concluded.

 

3. Investment Adviser and Other Service Providers

Investment Adviser — RidgeWorth Investments (“Investment Adviser”) serves as the investment adviser to the Funds. The Trust and the Investment Adviser have entered into an investment advisory agreement (“Advisory Agreement”). The Investment Adviser is a money–management holding company with multiple style-focused investment boutiques which, along with certain unaffiliated advisory firms, serve as subadvisers to the Funds (“Subadvisers”). The Subadvisers for each of the Funds, other than the Allocation Strategies, which are not subadvised, are as follows: Capital Innovations LLC serves as the Subadviser for the Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund; Ceredex Value Advisors LLC serves as the Subadviser for the Large Cap Value Equity Fund, Mid-Cap Value Equity Fund and Small Cap Value Equity Fund; Certium Asset Management LLC served as the Subadviser for the International Equity Fund through August 31, 2015 and beginning September 1, 2015, WCM Investment Management serves as Subadviser for the International Equity Fund; Silvant Capital Management LLC serves as the Subadviser for the Large Cap Growth

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

Stock Fund and Small Cap Growth Stock Fund; and Zevenbergen Capital Investments LLC serves as the Subadviser for the Aggressive Growth Stock Fund. Zevenbergen Capital Investments LLC is a minority-owned subsidiary of the Investment Adviser. Capital Innovations LLC and WCM Investment Management are not affiliated with the Investment Adviser. Ceredex and Silvant are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser pays the Subadvisers out of the investment advisory fees it receives from the Funds.

The Predecessor Fund had an Advisory Agreement with Liberty Street Advisors, Inc. (“Liberty Street”). Liberty Street engaged Capital Innovations LLC (the “Sub-Advisor”) to manage the Fund and paid the Sub-Advisor from its advisory fees.

Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Funds are charged annual advisory fees, which are computed daily and paid monthly based upon average daily net assets. Breakpoints are used in computing the overall annual advisory fee. The maximum annual advisory fee is charged on average daily net assets of each Fund up to $500 million. A discount of 5% applies on the next $500 million, a discount of 10% applies on the next $4 billion and a discount of 15% applies on amounts over $5 billion. Fee rates for the period or fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 were as follows:

6. Federal Income Tax Information

The following information is presented on an income tax basis and takes into consideration differences between amounts for financial statement and income tax purposes. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature (i.e., foreign currency transactions and return of capital on securities) such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their U.S. federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.

The effects of certain differences reclassified as of March 31, 2016 were as follows:

* The differences between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation is attributable primarily to: tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains/losses on investments in passive foreign investment companies, return of capital adjustments, forward contracts marked to market and partnership basis adjustments.

The Funds utilize the provisions of the federal income tax laws that provide for the carry forward of capital losses from prior years, offsetting such losses against any future realized capital gains. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”), net capital losses recognized in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 (“post-enactment”), may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term and/or long-term losses. Previously, net capital losses were carried forward for eight years and treated as short-term losses (“pre-enactment”). The Act requires that post-enactment net capital losses be used before pre-enactment net capital losses.

As of March 31, 2016, the post-enactment accumulated short-term and long-term capital loss carry forwards were as follows:

On August 1, 2015, affiliated fixed income funds were rebranded from “RidgeWorth” to “RidgeWorth Seix”.

 

8. Reorganizations

On November 18, 2014, the Board approved the reorganization of the RidgeWorth Select Large Cap Growth Fund (the “Target Fund”) into the RidgeWorth Large Cap Growth Stock Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”), a separate series of the Trust. On January 26, 2015 the Acquiring Fund acquired all of the net assets of the Target Fund in a tax-free exchange of shares. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two portfolios with comparable investment objectives and strategies.

The combined net assets of the Acquiring Fund immediately after the reorganization were $287,227,781.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (concluded)

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

Assuming the acquisition had been completed on April 1, 2014, the beginning of the reporting period of the Acquiring Fund, the Acquiring Fund’s pro forma results of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 were as follows:

 

Net Investment Income (Loss)

   $ (645,883

Net Realized and Unrealized Gains/Losses on Investments

   $ 40,828,634   

Net Increase/Decrease in Net Assets resulting from Operations

   $ 40,182,751   

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Target Fund that has been included in the Acquiring Fund’s Statement of Operations as of March 31, 2015.

Effective the close of business on February 19, 2016, Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund, a new series of the Trust, acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of the Predecessor Fund, a series of Investment Managers Series Trust. As part of the reorganization there was a change to the independent registered public accounting firm. The reorganization was accomplished by the following tax-free reorganization in which each shareholder of the Predecessor Fund received the same aggregate share net asset value in the corresponding classes as noted below:

 

     Shares Issued      Net Assets  

I Shares

     224,274         $1,806,342   

A Shares

     127,824         1,028,373   

C Shares

     24,776         196,668   

The appreciation (depreciation) of the Predecessor Fund was $588,102 as of the date of the acquisition.

The undistributed net investment income of the Predecessor Fund was $18,436 as of the date of the acquisition.

 

9. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-07 Disclosure for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). The amendments in ASU No. 2015-07 remove the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy investments measured using the net asset value per share (“NAV”) practical expedient. The ASU also removes certain disclosure requirements for investments that qualify, but do not utilize, the NAV practical expedient. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact these changes will have on the Fund’s financial statements and related disclosures.

 

10. Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued. Management has determined that there are no material events that would require disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements through this date.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of RidgeWorth Funds:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of portfolio investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Aggressive Growth Stock Fund, Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund, International Equity Fund, Large Cap Growth Stock Fund, Large Cap Value Equity Fund, Mid-Cap Value Equity Fund, Small Cap Growth Stock Fund, Small Cap Value Equity Fund, Aggressive Growth Allocation Strategy, Conservative Allocation Strategy, Growth Allocation Strategy, and Moderate Allocation Strategy (twelve of the funds constituting RidgeWorth Funds, collectively the “Funds”) at March 31, 2016, the results of their operations for the periods then ended, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at March 31, 2016 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, and application of alternative auditing procedures where securities purchased had not been received, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights of the Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund for the year or periods ended on November 30, 2015 and prior were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report dated January 29, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements and financial highlights.

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY AGREEMENTS

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

(Unaudited)

 

Renewal of Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements

The continuance of the Trust’s investment advisory agreement with RidgeWorth Capital Management LLC (the “Adviser”) and subadvisory agreements between the Adviser and each of Ceredex Value Advisors LLC, Silvant Capital Management LLC, and Zevenbergen Capital Investments LLC (collectively, the “Subadvisers”) must be specifically approved at least annually by (i) the vote of the Trustees or a vote of the shareholders of the Funds and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the agreements or “interested persons” of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. New advisory agreements for the Trust are also subject to such approval initially and annually after their initial term is complete.

Each year, the Board of Trustees calls and holds a meeting to decide whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s agreements for another year. In preparation for the meeting, the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of information from the Adviser and Subadvisers. The Trustees use this information, as well as other information that the Adviser, Subadvisers, and other service providers may submit to the Board, to help them decide whether to approve the agreements.

In considering the renewal of the agreements with the Adviser and Subadvisers, the Board requested and received material from the Adviser and Subadvisers in preparation for a special meeting of the Board held on October 8, 2015, and requested and reviewed additional material from the Adviser and Subadvisers in preparation for its quarterly meeting held on November 16-17, 2015, at which it specifically considered the renewal of the agreements. Such material included, among other things, information about: (a) the quality of the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ investment management and other services; (b) the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ investment management personnel; (c) the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ operations and financial condition; (d) the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ brokerage practices (including any soft dollar arrangements) and investment strategies; (e) the level of the advisory fees that the Adviser and Subadvisers charge the Funds compared with the fees they charge to comparable mutual funds or accounts; (f) the Funds’ overall fees and operating expenses compared with similar mutual funds; (g) the level of the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ profitability from their Fund-related operations; (h) the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ compliance systems; (i) the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ policies and procedures for personal securities transactions; (j) the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ reputation, expertise, and resources in domestic financial markets; and (k) the Funds’ performance compared with similar mutual funds. The Board also received a memorandum from fund counsel regarding the responsibilities of the Trustees in connection with their consideration of the agreements.

At the meetings, representatives from the Adviser and Subadvisers presented additional oral and written information to the Board to help the Board evaluate the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ fees and other aspects of the agreements. The Board also considered information presented by the Adviser, Subadvisers, and other service providers at meetings held throughout the year. The Trustees discussed the written materials, oral presentations, and any other information that the Board received, and considered the approval of the agreements in light of this information.

Based on the Board’s deliberations and evaluation of the information it received, the Board, all of whose members are Independent Trustees, approved the renewal of the agreements with the Adviser and Subadvisers and determined that the compensation under the agreements is fair and reasonable in light of the services to be performed. The Board considered the following specific factors, none of which was controlling, and made the following conclusions:

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. The Board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Subadvisers. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ personnel, experience, track record, and compliance program. The Board considered the background and experience of the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ senior management and the expertise of, and amount of attention given to the Funds by, their portfolio management teams. The Board reviewed the qualifications and backgrounds of the portfolio managers responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds. The Board also reviewed information pertaining to the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ organizational structure, senior management, investment operations, and other relevant information. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Subadvisers supported the approval of the agreements.

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY AGREEMENTS  (continued)

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

(Unaudited)

 

Performance. The Board considered the investment performance of each Fund, including any periods of outperformance and underperformance, both on an absolute basis and a comparative basis to indices and other funds within the same investment categories. Specifically, the Board considered Fund performance relative to peer groups and appropriate benchmarks in light of total return, yield, and market trends. As part of this review, the Board considered the composition of the peer group and selection criteria, as well as market risk and shareholder risk expectations. The Board considered the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ explanations regarding specific performance issues. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the performance of the Funds, the Adviser, and the Subadvisers supported the approval of the agreements.

Fund Expenses. With respect to advisory fees, the Board considered the rate of compensation under the agreements and each Fund’s net operating expense ratio in comparison to those of comparable mutual funds. The Trustees also considered information about average expense ratios of comparable mutual funds in each Fund’s peer group. Finally, the Trustees considered the effect of the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ waiver and reimbursement of fees and expenses, where applicable, to prevent total expenses from exceeding a specified amount and that, due to these waivers and reimbursements, net operating expenses have been maintained at competitive levels. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported the approval of the agreements.

Profitability. The Board reviewed information about the profitability of the Funds to the Adviser and Subadvisers and considered whether the level of profitability, if any, was reasonable and justified in light of the quality of the services rendered to the Funds. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the profitability of the Adviser and Subadvisers is within the range the Board considered reasonable.

Economies of Scale. The Board considered the existence of economies of scale and whether they were passed along to Fund shareholders through a graduated advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the Adviser and Subadvisers. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.

Approval of New Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements

At a meeting held on November 16-17, 2015, the Board of Trustees considered the proposed advisory agreement between RidgeWorth Capital Management LLC (the “Adviser”) and the Trust and the proposed subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and Capital Innovations LLC (the “Subadviser”), both with respect to the RidgeWorth Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund (the “Fund”). After their initial two-year term, the agreements must be specifically approved at least annually by (i) the vote of the Trustees or a vote of the shareholders of the Fund and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the agreements or “interested persons” of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. Each year after the initial two-year term, the Board will call and hold a meeting to decide whether to continue the agreements for an additional one-year term. In preparation for such meetings, the Board will request and review a wide variety of information from the Adviser and the Subadviser. The Trustees use this information, as well as other information that the Adviser, the Subadviser, and other service providers may submit to the Board, to help them decide whether to renew the agreements.

Prior to and at the November meeting at which the Trustees considered the agreements, the Board requested and reviewed materials from the Adviser and Subadviser to help the Trustees evaluate the proposed fees and other aspects of the agreements. The agreements were considered as part of the proposed reorganization of the Capital Innovations Global Agri, Timber, Infrastructure Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) into the Fund, which was being proposed at the meeting as a new series of the Trust.

In considering whether to approve the agreements, the Board considered and discussed information and analysis provided by the Adviser and Subadviser. The Board considered all factors that it deemed to be relevant. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any single factor that was paramount or controlling and individual Trustees may have attributed different weights to various factors. Certain factors considered by the Board are addressed in more detail below.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. In considering the nature, extent, and quality of the services proposed to be provided by the Adviser and Subadviser, the Board reviewed the services to be provided and the qualifications and

backgrounds of the portfolio managers proposed to be responsible for managing the Fund. The Board also reviewed information set forth in the Subadviser’s Form ADV, which provides information about the firm, its management, and its business activities and affiliations. The Board considered the professional experience and qualifications of the Subadviser’s senior management and key professional personnel. The Board also considered the Subadviser’s operational capabilities and resources and its experience in managing investment portfolios. The Board noted that the Subadviser serves as subadviser to the Predecessor Fund and reviewed the Subadviser’s record in that role. The Board also noted that the Adviser serves as investment adviser to each series of the Trust and that its advisory agreement with respect to the existing series of the Trust also was being considered for renewal at the meeting. Based on its review, within the context of its full deliberations, the Board determined that it was satisfied with the nature, extent, and quality of services to be provided to the Fund by the Adviser and Subadviser.

Performance. In connection with the assessment of the Subadviser’s ability to perform its duties under the subadvisory agreement, the Board considered the sufficiency of its resources and concluded that the Subadviser had the financial resources necessary to perform its obligations under the agreement. The Board heard an overview of the Subadviser’s investment philosophy, the proposed portfolio construction of the assets of the Fund, and the investment techniques to be employed. The Board also reviewed the Subadviser’s investment performance with respect to the strategies proposed to be used in managing the Fund and the investment performance of the Subadviser with respect to its other accounts, including mutual funds and other pooled investment vehicles, and, specifically, the Predecessor Fund. The Board also assessed the Adviser’s ability to perform its duties under the advisory agreement, noting that the Adviser’s performance with respect to the other series of the Trust also was being assessed at the meeting. Based on its review, within the context of its full deliberations, the Board determined that it was satisfied with the information regarding the performance of the Adviser and the Subadviser.

Cost of Services. The Board considered the cost of the services to be provided by the Adviser and Subadviser, including estimated profitability analyses, and reviewed the fees to be paid pursuant to the agreements. In addition, the Board discussed the fee arrangement between the Adviser and the Subadviser, noting that the Adviser would pay the Subadviser out of the advisory fee it receives from the Fund. The Board also reviewed information regarding advisory fees of comparable funds and evaluated the proposed fee arrangement in light of this information and the factors that judicial decisions have specified as pertinent generally. The Board also considered the Adviser’s and the Subadviser’s contractual arrangement with the Fund to waive the advisory fee and/or reimburse expenses in an effort to control the expense ratio of the Fund, if necessary. Based on its review, within the context of its full deliberations, the Board determined that the fees proposed to be paid to the Adviser and Subadviser were fair and reasonable.

Economies of Scale. The Board considered the potential for economies of scale and noted that both the Adviser’s and the Subadviser’s fees include breakpoints.

Conclusion. Based on its deliberations and evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously: (i) concluded that the terms of the agreements are fair and reasonable; (ii) concluded that the proposed compensation for the Adviser and Subadviser is fair and reasonable in light of the services that they will provide to the Fund; and (iii) agreed to approve the agreements for an initial term of two years.

*** Effective February 22, 2016, Capital Innovations Global Resources and Infrastructure Fund had a fiscal year date change from November 30 to March 31. Expenses are equal to annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 122 (the number of days since February 22, 2016), then divided by 366.

Hypothetical Example

The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each RidgeWorth Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

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

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

Dear Valued Shareholder,

We sincerely thank you for your continued business and support. Our primary objective is to help you achieve your investment goals, and we’re grateful you have placed your confidence in us. We aim to earn your trust through competitive investment performance and excellent client service. We hope we have met your expectations in both of these measures, and we look forward to continuing to serve as your asset manager in the months and years to come.

During the 12 months through March 31, 2016, the U.S. economy continued to grow, albeit at a slower pace than last year. The U.S. Federal Reserve in December 2015 took its first steps toward unwinding its long-running stimulus efforts, raising the federal funds rate by 25 basis points. However, the relatively weak improvement of the U.S. economy suggests that the Fed will move slowly to raise interest rates in the near term.

Two major themes during the period were the sharp decline in commodity prices and the strength of the U.S. dollar. These factors caused corporate earnings to struggle, posing headwinds for stocks. However, these headwinds currently appear to be ebbing as commodity prices—particularly the price of oil—have rebounded and the dollar has given back some of the considerable gains experienced since 2014.

Outside the U.S., countries such as China and Brazil struggled to realign economic priorities, contain excess debt and limit political turmoil, while slow economic growth challenged the euro zone. Central banks in many international markets adopted increasingly aggressive stimulus measures. We remain concerned that monetary policies abroad may be nearing the limits of their effectiveness, and we believe the decision by the European Central Bank and other central banks to push interest rates into uncharted negative territory has the potential to disrupt the global economy. We do expect, however, international developed markets to continue to recover, due in part to the continued strength of the U.S. economy, which is shouldering much of the burden of the global economic recovery.

Looking ahead, we believe bond yields will remain relatively low, but the Fed’s intention is to normalize monetary policy. The decline in commodity prices stoked concerns about certain bond issuers over the past year, especially those in the energy sector. This year will be key in terms of observing which ones will be able to service their debt.

Our outlook for the equity markets remains favorable, but with increased volatility due to the presidential race and global macro- headlines. We see opportunities in all equity styles. Finally, we continue to believe that a gradually firming economic environment will offer fresh opportunities to selective investors. We expect this opportunistic environment should mesh well with RidgeWorth’s bottom-up approach to security selection. We at RidgeWorth wish to thank you again for the trust and confidence you have placed in us, and we look forward to another successful year together.

Sincerely,

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

Mortgage-backed investments involve risk of loss due to prepayments and, like any bond, due to default. Because of the sensitivity of mortgage-related securities to changes in interest rates, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile than if it did not hold these securities.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Core Bond Fund returned 1.18% (I Shares). That compared to a 1.96% return for the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Treasuries and high-grade corporate bonds benefited from a flight to quality among investors concerned about global economic growth. Those worries were fueled in part by a slowdown in China, related weakness in commodities and questions about the Fed’s future rate path. Corporate spreads widened during the period, detracting from absolute returns.

Security selection and asset allocation in the corporate sector dragged on the Fund’s return relative to its benchmark. A consistent underweight position in government-related issues such as agency bonds contributed positively to relative performance.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We expect the U.S. economy’s anemic growth to cause the Fed to maintain a relatively soft approach to interest rate increases. The direction of the financial markets is likely to have an increasing impact on the Fed’s interest rate strategy in the near term.

Concerns persist about the health of U.S. and world economies. U.S. economic growth has consistently underwhelmed throughout this recovery. Across the globe, deflationary pressures continue to persist due to excessive debt, slow productivity growth and a surplus of productive capacity. Given this environment, we expect interest rates to remain range-bound, with a bias toward the lower end, and we think credit spreads will remain volatile for the foreseeable future. Our investment strategy continues to prioritize safe income at a reasonable price.

The Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark benefited from tactical shifts in its allocation to the energy sector. The Fund’s underweight position in the financials sector also was a positive contributor.

Asset allocation and security selection within the oil field services and mid-stream energy sectors were the main detractors from performance relative to the index.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We expect the U.S. economy’s anemic growth to cause the Fed to maintain a relatively soft approach to interest rate increases. The direction of the financial markets is likely to have an increasing impact on the Fed’s interest rate strategy in the near term.

Concerns persist about the health of U.S. and world economies. U.S. economic growth has consistently underwhelmed throughout this recovery. Across the globe, deflationary pressures continue to persist due to excessive debt, slow productivity growth and a surplus of productive capacity. Given this environment, we expect interest rates to remain range-bound, with a bias toward the lower end, and we think credit spreads will remain volatile for the foreseeable future. Our investment strategy continues to prioritize safe income at a reasonable price.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Bond funds will tend to experience smaller fluctuations in value than stock funds. However, investors in any bond fund should anticipate fluctuations in price. Floating rate loans generally offer less interest rate risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

Although the Fund’s yield may be higher than that of fixed income funds that purchase higher-rated securities, the potentially higher yield is a function of the greater risk that the Fund’s share price will decline.

Floating rate loans are typically senior and secured, in contrast to other below-investment grade securities. However, there is no guarantee that the value of the collateral will not decline, causing a loan to be substantially unsecured. Loans generally are subject to restrictions on resale, and they sometimes trade infrequently in the secondary market. Certain types of loans may limit the ability of the Fund to enforce its rights and may involve assuming additional credit risks.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Floating Rate High Income Fund returned –1.50% (I Shares). That compared to a 1.70% return for the Credit Suisse Institutional Leveraged Loan Index, and a –1.11% return for the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index.

The Fund employed the Credit Suisse Institutional Leveraged Loan Index for the first nine months of the 12-month period. Effective December 31, 2015, the Fund’s official benchmark has changed to the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index, which we believe is more appropriate.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Investors sought out relatively safe parts of the fixed income markets during the period due to a range of macroeconomic issues, including worries about slower global economic growth, weakness in commodity prices and questions about the Federal Reserve’s interest rate strategy. Challenging technical factors, such as high levels of mutual fund redemptions, put pressure on the leveraged loan market and contributed to the Fund’s negative returns.

Even though security selection in the Energy sector was positive, the Fund’s overweight in the sector detracted from performance due to a decrease in oil prices, which impacted energy and energy-related credits. We tend to favor the Refiners sub-sector, which benefits from the decline in oil prices because it is their largest cost, and demand for diesel and gasoline has been consistent. Secondly, negative security selection in Broadcasting detracted from Fund performance; this underperformance mostly comes from one issuer—a large radio broadcasting credit with digital streaming services. The issuer is in the process of revising their earnings projections and providing more clarity on its capital structure.

Positive security selection in Utilities was additive to the Fund’s performance. Additionally, an overweight in BBs and split BB/Bs contributed, as these securities outperformed lower quality counterparts.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

The outlook for leveraged loans remains constructive given attractive valuations. We will continue to watch fund flows and how they impact market technicals, as well as monitor corporate fundamentals throughout the upcoming earnings season. Ultimately, the current market conditions and global macro backdrop will steer investors towards active management, and further justify the need for fundamental analysis and risk mitigation; this is core to our investment style and management.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

The geographical concentration of portfolio holdings in the Fund may involve increased risk.

The Fund’s income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, depending on your tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax.

The Fund is subject to the risk that principal value reacts in opposition to the movement of interest rates and that a rising interest rate environment increases the risk of loss of principal.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Georgia Tax-Exempt Bond Fund (I Shares) posted a total return of 3.50%. That compared to 12-month returns of 2.99% and 3.98% for the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Category and the Barclays U.S. Municipal Bond Index, respectively.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Municipal bonds (munis) benefited from increased investor demand, which helped drive prices up and yields down on five-, 10- and 30-year AAA-rated munis. Investors were attracted to munis as they searched for income and stability in a relatively volatile low-interest rate environment. Demand was strong enough to more than offset the impact of high new issuance.

Credit spreads tightened. Holdings issued by transportation and health care entities led performance among the larger sectors of the Fund’s benchmark.

The Fund’s greater-than-benchmark holdings of munis with maturities of 22 years or longer added to relative results, as the long bond sector outperformed the five-year bond sector by a wide margin. Overweight positions in the education and water and sewer sectors also helped boost the Fund’s relative return.

An underweight allocation to state general obligation bonds dragged on relative results, as did underweight allocations to the transportation and leasing sectors.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We remain constructive on the municipal sector because of its tax-exempt income, strong technical factors, healthy fundamentals, and attractive yields relative to other fixed income alternatives. Negative headlines still persist from some entities experiencing fiscal strain but do not reflect the financial condition of most municipal borrowers. Tight credit spreads continue to warrant a degree of caution at this point in the economic/credit cycle.

The Fund’s present curve posture and sector allocations seem appropriate given our forecasts for the economy and financial markets. We will continue to make tactical adjustments to the Fund, periodically, as a part of an active portfolio management process and all activity will occur within an investment grade construct.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix High Grade Municipal Bond Fund (I Shares) posted a total return of 3.85%. That compared to 12-month returns of 3.45% and 3.98% for the Lipper General & Insured Municipal Debt Funds Category and the Barclays U.S. Municipal Bond Index, respectively.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Municipal bonds (munis) benefited from rising investor demand during the 12-month period, which drove up prices on five-, 10- and 30-year AAA-rated munis and pushed yields down. Credit spreads continued to tighten as well. Investors were attracted to munis as they searched for income and stability amid low interest rates and relatively high volatility. The strong demand was enough to absorb the high volume of new munis issued during the period.

The Fund’s absolute performance benefited from holdings of transportation and health care issuers, which led returns among the larger sectors of the Fund’s benchmark. The Fund also benefited from exposure to bonds with maturities of 20 years or more, as longer duration bonds helped drive positive performance over the 12-month period.

In this positive environment, the Fund outperformed one benchmark while underperforming the other. The Fund’s greater-than-benchmark holdings with maturities of 22 years or longer added to relative results. Overweight positions in general obligation municipal bonds at the state and local levels also made strong contributions to relative performance. Meanwhile, underweight exposure to the strong-performing transportation sector detracted from relative performance, as did an underweight allocation to A-rated bonds, which also performed well during the period. The Fund’s allocation to cash dragged on relative performance.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

Munis remain attractive based on their healthy fundamentals, strong technical factors, tax-exempt income and attractive yields relative to other fixed income investments. While fiscal strains on some issuers continue to generate negative headlines, the sector as a whole remains financially sound. However, the tight credit spreads at this late stage of the current economic and credit cycles mean a degree of caution is warranted.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix High Income Fund (I Shares) returned –5.31%. That compared to a –3.69% return for the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The decrease in oil and other commodity prices was the largest negative influence on credit markets during the period. At the beginning of the 12-month period, the energy and metals and mining sectors accounted for nearly 20% of the benchmark. Although there were pockets of difficulty among some lower-quality issuers not related to energy or metals and mining, the majority of distress was experienced by issuers whose revenues were hurt by the downturn in commodity prices. The Fund’s absolute returns suffered in this environment.

Relative to its benchmark, the Fund benefited from underweight positions in both the energy and metals and mining sectors, and from an overweight position in the cable industry. Security selection among issuers in the chemical and retail industries also boosted relative results. Additionally, the Fund’s overweight position in cash positions helped buoy returns in a challenging market environment.

Underweight positions in the paper, construction and gaming industries hurt the Fund’s relative results. Security selection in the technology, satellite and transportation industries also weighed on relative performance.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

Energy prices continue to stabilize and the fundamentals of non-commodity-related sectors remain moderately positive. Given that environment, we expect high-yield bonds to continue the recovery that began in February. We expect to see higher levels of defaults, especially in the energy and metals and mining sectors, but believe that current prices in those sectors more than account for the potential for losses. In our view, unfavorable technical factors pushed high-yield bond prices down to unsustainably low levels by the middle of February. Although high-yield bonds have rebounded, we believe that spreads have additional room to tighten, and more than compensate investors for any increase in defaults.

We have rotated into bonds with attractive potential upside, including specialty finance companies with stable cash flows that could provide a kind of backstop if the credit market deteriorates. We also have worked to identify investment grade energy companies that we expected to be downgraded to high-yield status, but offered very generous double-digit yields.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Bond funds will tend to experience smaller fluctuations in value than stock funds. However, investors in any bond fund should anticipate fluctuations in price, especially for longer-term issues and in environments of rising interest rates.

Although the Fund’s yield may be higher than that of fixed income funds that purchase higher-rated securities, the potentially higher yield is a function of the greater risk that the Fund’s share price will decline.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix High Yield Fund (I Shares) returned –5.23%. That compared to a –2.34% return for the Fund’s benchmark, the Bank of America Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield BB-B Rated Constrained Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The decrease in oil and other commodity prices was the largest negative influence on credit markets during the period. At the beginning of the 12-month period, the energy and metals and mining sectors accounted for nearly 20% of the benchmark. Although there were pockets of difficulty among some lower-quality issuers not related to energy or metals and mining, the majority of distress was experienced by issuers whose revenues were hurt by the downturn in commodity prices. The Fund’s absolute returns suffered in this environment.

Relative to its benchmark, the Fund benefited from an underweight position in the energy sector, and from an overweight position in the cable industry. Security selection among issuers in the chemical and retail industries also boosted relative results. Additionally, the Fund’s overweight exposure to cash helped buoy returns in a challenging market environment.

Underweight positions in the telecommunications, gaming and healthcare industries hurt the Fund’s relative results. Security selection in the technology, satellite and steel industries also hurt relative performance.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

Energy prices continue to stabilize and the fundamentals of non-commodity-related sectors remain moderately positive. Given that environment, we expect high-yield bonds to continue the recovery that began in February. We expect to see higher levels of defaults, especially in the energy and metals and mining sectors, but believe that current prices in those sectors more than account for the potential for losses. In our view, unfavorable technical factors pushed high-yield bond prices down to unsustainably low levels by the middle of February. And while high-yield bonds have rebounded, we believe that spreads have additional room to tighten, and more than compensate investors for any increase in defaults.

We have rotated into bonds with attractive potential upside, including specialty finance companies with stable cash flows that could provide a kind of backstop if the credit environment deteriorates. We also have worked to identify investment grade energy companies that we expected to be downgraded to high-yield status, but offered very generous double-digit yields.

SEIX INVESTMENT GRADE TAX-EXEMPT BOND FUND

 

 

Portfolio Manager

 

  Ronald Schwartz, CFA

 

 

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

The Fund’s income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, depending on your tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax.

The Fund is subject to the risk that principal value reacts in opposition to the movement of interest rates and that a rising interest rate environment increases the risk of loss of principal.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Investment Grade Tax-Exempt Bond Fund (I Shares) posted a total return of 2.96%. That compared to 12-month returns of 3.02% and 3.46% for the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Category and the Barclays U.S. Municipal Bond 1-15 Blend Index, respectively.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Municipal bonds (munis) benefited from rising investor demand during the 12-month period, which drove up prices on five-, 10- and 30-year AAA-rated munis and pushed yields down. Credit spreads continued to tighten. Investors were attracted to munis as they searched for income and stability amid low interest rates and relatively high volatility. The strong demand was enough to absorb the high volume of new munis issued during the period.

The Fund’s absolute performance benefited from its holdings of transportation and health care issuers, which led returns among the larger sectors of the Fund’s benchmark. The Fund also benefited from exposure to bonds with maturities of 20 years or more, as longer duration bonds helped drive positive performance over the 12-month period.

Underweight exposure to the strong-performing transportation sector detracted from relative performance, as did an underweight allocation to A-rated bonds, which also performed well during the period. The Fund’s allocation to cash also dragged on relative performance. The Fund’s greater-than-benchmark holdings of bonds with maturities of 20 years or longer added to relative results. An overweight position in the special tax sector also added to relative return, as did exposure to market refunding events.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

Munis remain attractive based on their healthy fundamentals, strong technical factors, tax-exempt income and attractive yields relative to other fixed income investments. While fiscal strains on some issuers continue to generate negative headlines, the sector as a whole remains financially sound. However, the tight credit spreads at this late stage of the current economic and credit cycles warrant a degree of caution.

We feel the Fund’s current focus on longer term bonds targets the appropriate part of the yield curve. We will continue to take a tactical approach with a focus on a higher credit quality.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Bond funds will tend to experience smaller fluctuations in value than stock funds. However, investors in any bond fund should anticipate fluctuations in price, especially for longer-term issues and in environments of rising interest rates.

Mortgage-backed investments involve risk of loss due to prepayments and, like any bond, due to default. Because of the sensitivity of mortgage-related securities to changes in interest rates, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile than if it did not hold these securities.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Limited Duration Fund (I Shares) returned 0.26%. That compared to a 0.12% return for the Fund’s benchmark, the Bank of America Merrill Lynch 3 month U.S. Treasury Bill Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The U.S. Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate by 25 basis points in December. Nevertheless, short-term interest rates remained near historical lows during the 12-month period. The Fund held a variety of short-duration mortgage- and asset-backed securities, which provided somewhat higher yields than Treasury bills of comparable durations. The income from such issues helped the Fund to provide a positive absolute return for the period, and to modestly outperform its Treasury-only benchmark index.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We expect the Fed to maintain a relatively soft approach to interest rate increases, given the U.S. economy’s anemic growth. The direction of the financial markets is likely to have an increasing impact on the Fed’s interest rate strategy in the near term.

Concerns persist about the health of U.S. and world economies. U.S. economic growth has consistently underwhelmed throughout this recovery. Across the globe, deflationary pressures continue to persist due to excessive debt, slow productivity growth and a surplus of productive capacity. Given this environment, we expect interest rates to remain range-bound, with a bias toward the lower end, and we think credit spreads will remain volatile for the foreseeable future. Our investment strategy continues to prioritize safe income at a reasonable price.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform relative to its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix North Carolina Tax-Exempt Bond Fund (I Shares) posted a total return of 3.39%. That compared to 12-month returns of 2.99% and 3.98% for the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Category and the Barclays U.S. Municipal Bond Index, respectively.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Municipal bonds (munis) benefited from increased investor demand, which helped drive prices up and yields down on five-, 10- and 30-year AAA-rated munis. Investors were attracted to munis as they searched for income and stability in a relatively volatile low-interest rate environment. Demand was strong enough to more than offset the impact of high new issuance.

Credit spreads tightened. Holdings issued by transportation and health care entities led performance among the larger sectors of the Fund’s benchmark.

The Fund’s greater-than-benchmark holdings of munis with maturities of 22 years or longer added to relative results, as the long bond sector outperformed the five-year bond sector by a wide margin. Overweight positions in the education and water and sewer sectors also helped boost the Fund’s relative return.

Underweight allocations to state and local general obligation bonds and to special tax and transportation sectors weighed on relative results, as did higher-than-benchmark holdings of AAA-rated securities.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We remain constructive on the municipal sector because of its tax-exempt income, strong technical factors, healthy fundamentals, and attractive yields relative to other fixed income alternatives. Negative headlines still persist from some entities experiencing fiscal strain but do not reflect the financial condition of most municipal borrowers. Tight credit spreads continue to warrant a degree of caution at this point in the economic/credit cycle.

The Fund’s present curve posture and sector allocations seem appropriate given our forecasts for the economy and financial markets. We will continue to make tactical adjustments to the Fund, periodically, as a part of an active portfolio management process and all activity will occur within an investment grade construct.

The Fund is subject to the risk that principal value reacts in opposition to the movement of interest rates and that a rising interest rate environment increases the risk of loss of principal.

Mortgage-backed investments involve risk of loss due to prepayments and, like any bond, due to default. Because of the sensitivity of mortgage-related securities to changes in interest rates, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile than if it did not hold these securities.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Short-Term Bond Fund (I Shares) returned 0.68%. That compares to a 1.04% return for the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays 1-3 Year Government/Credit Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Treasuries and high-grade corporate bonds benefited from a flight to quality among investors concerned about global economic growth. Those worries were fueled in part by a slowdown in China, related weakness in commodities and questions about the Fed’s future rate path. The Federal Reserve’s December decision to raise the federal funds rate moved short-term Treasury yields higher, reducing absolute returns. Coupon income during the period helped offset the negative impact of higher interest rates.

The primary driver of the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark was the overweight position in primary spread sectors, including corporate bonds, and securitized sectors such as asset-back securities (ABS), residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) and commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS). In this low-rate environment, the Fund’s fees were the largest detractor from relative results.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We expect the U.S. economy’s anemic growth to cause the Fed to maintain a relatively soft approach to interest rate increases. The direction of the financial markets is likely to have an increasing impact on the Fed’s interest rate strategy in the near term.

Concerns persist about the health of U.S. and world economies. U.S. economic growth has consistently underwhelmed throughout this recovery. Across the globe, deflationary pressures continue to persist due to excessive debt, slow productivity growth and a surplus of productive capacity. Given this environment, we expect interest rates to remain range-bound, with a bias toward the lower end, and we think credit spreads will remain volatile for the foreseeable future. Our investment strategy continues to prioritize safe income at a reasonable price.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

The geographical concentration of portfolio holdings in this fund may involve increased risk.

The Fund’s income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, depending on your tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax.

The Fund is subject to the risk that principal value reacts in opposition to the movement of interest rates and that a rising interest rate environment increases the risk of loss of principal.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund (I Shares) posted a total return of 0.41%. That compares to 12-month returns of 0.56% and 1.51% for the Lipper Short Municipal Debt Funds Category and the Barclays 1-5 Year Municipal Bond Index, respectively.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Rising investor demand for longer-term municipal bonds (munis) resulted in a flattening of the yield curve during the 12-month period. Yields on five and 10-year AAA-rated munis declined while the yield on 2-year AAA-rated munis rose. Credit spreads continued to tighten as well. Investors were attracted to munis as they searched for income and stability amid low interest rates and relatively high volatility. The strong demand was enough to absorb the high volume of new munis issued during the period.

The Fund’s absolute performance benefited from holdings of pre-refunded and state general obligation bonds, which led performance among the larger sectors of the Fund’s benchmark.

An underweight allocation to the strong- performing pre-refunded sector dragged on relative results. The Fund’s allocation to cash also detracted, as did a lower-than-benchmark allocation to the three- and five-year durations section of the muni yield curve. Security selection in the lease sector and exposure to A-rated electric issuers also weighed on the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmarks. Meanwhile, the Fund’s overweight allocation to the water and sewer sector and to AAA-rated securities helped relative results.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

Munis remain attractive based on their healthy fundamentals, strong technical factors, tax-exempt income and attractive yields relative to other fixed income investments. While fiscal strains on some issuers continue to generate negative headlines, the sector as a whole remains financially sound. However, the tight credit spreads at this late stage of the current economic and credit cycles mean a degree of caution is warranted.

We feel the Fund’s current yield curve focus and sector allocations remain appropriate given our economic forecasts. We will continue to take a tactical approach with a focus on a higher credit quality.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Bond funds will tend to experience smaller fluctuations in value than stock funds. However, investors in any bond fund should anticipate fluctuations in price, especially for longer-term issues and in environments of rising interest rates.

Mortgage-backed investments involve risk of loss due to prepayments and, like any bond, due to default. Because of the sensitivity of mortgage-related securities to changes in interest rates, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile than if it did not hold these securities.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Total Return Bond Fund (I Shares) returned 1.35%. That compares to a 1.96% return for the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Treasuries and high-grade corporate bonds benefited from a flight to quality among investors concerned about global economic growth. Those worries were fueled in part by a slowdown in China, related weakness in commodities and questions about the Fed’s future rate path. Corporate spreads widened during the period, detracting from absolute returns.

An underweight position in agency bonds was a positive contributor to the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark. The Fund also benefited modestly from its global overlay strategies. The Fund’s relative results were hurt by security selection and asset allocation within the corporate sector.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We expect the U.S. economy’s anemic growth to cause the Fed to maintain a relatively soft approach to interest rate increases. The direction of the financial markets is likely to have an increasing impact on the Fed’s interest rate strategy in the near term.

Concerns persist about the health of U.S. and world economies. U.S. economic growth has consistently underwhelmed throughout this recovery.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix U.S. Government Securities Ultra-Short Bond Fund (I Shares) returned –0.11%. That compared to a 0.24% return for the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays 3-6 month U.S. Treasury Bill Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Short-term interest rates moved higher during the 12-month period as the U.S. Federal Reserve raised overnight interest rates in December 2015. The rising-rate environment hurt absolute returns.

The spreads between the yields on Treasuries and government-guaranteed securitized issues widened during the period, and was the primary detractor from relative performance. The Fund’s return relative to its benchmark benefited from an overweight exposure to higher-yielding securities.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We expect the U.S. economy’s anemic growth to cause the Fed to maintain a relatively soft approach to interest rate increases. The direction of the financial markets is likely to have an increasing impact on the Fed’s interest rate strategy in the near term.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform against its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix U.S. Mortgage Fund (I Shares) returned 1.84%. That compares to a 2.43% return for the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Mortgage Backed Securities Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Treasuries and high-grade corporate bonds benefited from a flight to quality among investors concerned about global economic growth. Those worries were fueled in part by a slowdown in China, related weakness in commodities and questions about the Fed’s future rate path. Corporate spreads widened during the period.

The Fund’s allocation to 30-year Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) bonds detracted from performance relative to the benchmark. Conversely, relative performance benefited from an overweight position in commercial mortgage-backed securities. Another positive contributor was the Fund’s underweight position in conventional 15-year residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS).

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We expect the U.S. economy’s anemic growth to cause the Fed to maintain a relatively soft approach to interest rate increases. The direction of the financial markets is likely to have an increasing impact on the Fed’s interest rate strategy in the near term.

Concerns persist about the health of U.S. and world economies. U.S. economic growth has consistently underwhelmed throughout this recovery. Across the globe, deflationary pressures continue to persist due to excessive debt, slow productivity growth and a surplus of productive capacity. Given this environment, we expect interest rates to remain range-bound, with a bias toward the lower end, and we think credit spreads will remain volatile for the foreseeable future. Our investment strategy continues to prioritize safe income at a reasonable price.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

U.S. Government guarantees apply only to the underlying securities of the Fund’s portfolio and not the Fund’s shares.

Mortgage-backed investments involve risk of loss due to prepayments and, like any bond, due to default. Because of the sensitivity of mortgage-related securities to changes in interest rates, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile than if it did not hold these securities.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform relative to its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Ultra-Short Bond Fund (I Shares) returned 0.42%. That compared to a 0.24% return for the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclays 3-6 Month Treasury Bill Index.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Short-term interest rates moved higher during the 12-month period as the U.S. Federal Reserve raised overnight interest rates in December 2015. The rising-rate environment muted absolute returns.

The Fund held an overweight position in “spread sectors” such as corporate paper and securitized bonds, which provide higher yield than Treasury bills. That positioning provided the largest positive contribution to relative performance during the fiscal year.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We expect the U.S. economy’s anemic growth to cause the Fed to maintain a relatively soft approach to interest rate increases. The direction of the financial markets is likely to have an increasing impact on the Fed’s interest rate strategy in the near term.

Concerns persist about the health of U.S. and world economies. U.S. economic growth has consistently underwhelmed throughout this recovery. Across the globe, deflationary pressures continue to persist due to excessive debt, slow productivity growth and a surplus of production capacity. Given this environment, we expect interest rates to remain range-bound, with a bias toward the lower end, and we think credit spreads will remain volatile for the foreseeable future. Our investment strategy for the Fund continues to emphasize higher quality short-duration spread product that will provide higher coupon income relative to its benchmark.

INVESTMENT CONCERNS

 

The geographical concentration of portfolio holdings in this Fund may involve increased risk.

Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher-quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer-term bonds and a lower rate of return.

The Fund’s income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, depending on your tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax.

The Fund is subject to the risk that principal value reacts in opposition to the movement of interest rates and that a rising interest rate environment increases the risk of loss of principal.

Debt securities will generally lose value if interest rates increase. Interest rate risk is generally higher for investments with longer maturities or durations. Debt securities are subject to the risk that an issuer will fail to make timely payments of interest or principal or go bankrupt, reducing the Fund’s return. The lower the rating of a debt security, the higher its credit risk.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

 

How did the Fund perform relative to its benchmark for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

The Seix Virginia Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund (I Shares) posted a total return of 3.30%. That compared to 12-month returns of 2.82% and 3.46% for the Lipper Other States Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Category and the Barclays U.S. Municipal Bond 1-15 Year Blend Index, respectively.

What factors influenced the Fund’s performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016?

Municipal bonds (munis) benefited from increased investor demand, which helped drive prices up and yields down on five-, 10- and 30-year AAA-rated munis. Investors were attracted to munis as they searched for income and stability in a relatively volatile low-interest rate environment. Demand was strong enough to more than offset the impact of high new issuance.

Credit spreads tightened. Holdings issued by transportation and health care entities led performance among the larger sectors of the Fund’s benchmark.

The Fund’s greater-than-benchmark holdings of munis with maturities of 10 years and longer added to relative results, as the long bond sector outperformed the five-year bond sector by a wide margin. Overweight positions in the leasing and water and sewer sectors added to relative results, as did security selection in the special tax arena.

Underweight allocations to state and local general obligation bonds and to the power sector weighed on results, as did higher-than-benchmark holdings of AAA-rated securities.

How do you plan to position the Fund, based on market conditions?

We remain constructive on the municipal sector because of its tax-exempt income, strong technical factors, healthy fundamentals, and attractive yields relative to other fixed income alternatives. Negative headlines still persist from some entities experiencing fiscal strain but do not reflect the financial condition of most municipal borrowers. Tight credit spreads continue to warrant a degree of caution at this point in the economic/credit cycle.

The Fund’s present curve posture and sector allocations seem appropriate given our forecasts for the economy and financial markets. We will continue to make tactical adjustments to the Fund, periodically, as a part of an active portfolio management process and all activity will occur within an investment grade construct.

The Seix High Yield Fund offers I Shares, A Shares and R Shares. The Seix Core Bond Fund, Seix High Income Fund and Seix Total Return Bond Fund offer I Shares, A Shares, R Shares and IS Shares. The Seix Floating Rate High Income Fund offers I Shares, A Shares, C Shares and IS Shares. The remaining Funds offer I Shares, A Shares and C Shares.

The assets of each Fund are segregated and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. Each class of shares has identical rights and privileges except with respect to the fees paid under the Distribution and Service Plan and the Shareholder Servicing Plan (“Plan”), voting rights on matters affecting a single class of shares and sales charges. The A Shares of the Funds (except Seix Floating Rate High Income Fund, Seix Short-Term Bond Fund, Seix Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund and Seix U.S. Mortgage Fund) have a maximum sales charge on purchases of 4.75% as a percentage of original purchase price. The A Shares of the Seix Floating Rate High Income Fund, Seix Short-Term Bond Fund, Seix Short-Term Municipal Bond and Seix U.S. Mortgage Fund have a maximum sales charge on purchases of 2.50% as a percentage of original purchase price. Certain purchases of A Shares will not be subject to a front-end sales charge but will be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 0.50%, if redeemed within two years of purchase. The deferred sale charges may be waived from time to time for certain broker-dealers that waive payment of compensation to them. The C Shares have a maximum CDSC of 1.00% as a percentage of either the original purchase price or the next calculated price after the Funds receive a redemption request, whichever is less, if shares are redeemed within one year of purchase. There is no sales charge on purchases of I, R or IS Shares.

The Trust’s officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust. However, based on experience, the Trust expects that risk of loss to be remote.

The Funds are each an investment company and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification (“FASB”) Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following are significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). Estimates and assumptions are required to be made

regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ.

(a) Investment Valuation — Debt securities are valued at the last quoted bid price provided by independent pricing vendors approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) that are based on transactions in debt obligations, quotations from bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities and various other relationships between securities.

The Funds, in accordance with GAAP, have adopted FASB Codification Topic 820 (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 establishes a single definition of fair value, creates a three-tier hierarchy as a framework for measuring fair value based on inputs used to value the Funds’ investments, and requires additional disclosure about fair value. The hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

 

    Level 1 — Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose values are therefore classified as Level 1 prices, include active listed equities. Investments in underlying funds and money market funds are valued at their Net Asset Value (“NAV”) daily and are classified as Level 1 prices.

 

    Level 2 — Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as Level 2 prices. These generally include U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, certain asset and mortgage backed products, less liquid listed equities, and state, municipal and provincial obligations.

 

    Level 3 — Investments whose values are classified as Level 3 prices have significant unobservable inputs, as they may trade infrequently or not at all. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the Funds use one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. The inputs used by the Funds in estimating the value of Level 3 prices may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 prices may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the Funds in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the Funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the Funds’ results of operations.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The Funds use valuation techniques to measure fair value that are consistent with the market approach and/or income approach, depending on the type of security and the particular circumstance. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable securities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to discount estimated future cash flows to present value.

The independent pricing vendor may value bank loans and debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, and/or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities and such securities are considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Publicly-traded foreign government debt securities are typically traded internationally in the over-the-counter market and are valued at the bid prices as of the close of business of that market and such securities are considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Futures contracts are valued daily at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded and such securities may be considered Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last reported sales price or official closing price on the primary market or exchange on which they trade and such securities may be considered Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Centrally cleared credit default and interest rate swaps are valued at the price determined by the relevant exchange and such securities may be considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Forward foreign exchange contracts are valued using daily forward exchange rates and such securities may be considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Short-term obligations with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value and such securities are considered Level 2

in the fair value hierarchy. Under the Pricing and Valuation Procedures, such securities may be considered Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

When reliable prices are not readily available, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, but before each Fund calculates its NAV, each of the Funds will value the security as determined in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Procedures approved by the Board. The Pricing and Valuation Procedures are performed and monitored by a Valuation Committee (the “Committee”) designated by the Board. Some of the more common reasons which may necessitate that a security be fair valued in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Procedures include, but are not limited to: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from a national exchange; the security’s primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when, under normal conditions, it would be open; or the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price. When a security is fair valued in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Procedures, the Committee determines the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.

4  As of March 31, 2016, the securities designated as Level 3 were fair valued using significant unobservable inputs under procedures adopted by the Board. Such valuations were based on a review of inputs such as, but not limited to, similar securities, company specific financial information, and company specific news. Each of these securities are Board fair valued securities for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. The Level 3 securities comprised 0.0% of net assets of Seix High Income Fund and 0.6% of net assets of Seix Floating Rate High Income Fund.

The following is a reconciliation of investments as of March 31, 2016 in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value:

The Funds’ policy is to disclose transfers between levels based on valuations at the end of the reporting period. Each portfolio may hold securities which are periodically fair valued in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Procedures. This may result in movements between Level 1 and Level 2 throughout the period. As of March 31, 2016, there were no transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 pursuant to the Pricing and Valuation Procedures. As of March 31, 2016, a security was transferred from Level 2 to Level 3 pursuant to the Pricing and Valuation Procedures for Seix Floating Rate High Income Fund. The transfer was a result of a review of the use of the Barclays broker quote and other pricing inputs. Based on the fact pattern, it was deemed the security illiquid, and classified it as Level 3.

(b) Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount over the life of the securities, is recorded on the accrual basis. Domestic and foreign dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or as soon as practicable after the Funds determine the existence of a dividend declaration after exercising reasonable due diligence. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method. To the extent any issuer defaults or a credit event occurs that impacts the issuer, the Funds may halt any additional interest income accruals and consider the Funds’ ability to realize interest accrued up to the date of default or credit event. Distributions from gains from underlying funds, if any, are recorded as realized gains on the ex-dividend date. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage- and asset-backed securities are recorded as adjustments to interest income.

(c) Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income of each of the Funds are declared each business day to shareholders of record and are paid monthly. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are declared at least annually. Distributions to shareholders from each of the Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

(d) Expenses and Share Class Accounting — Expenses that are directly related to a specific Fund are charged to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are allocated pro-rata to the Funds on the basis of relative net assets or another appropriate basis. Investment income, common expenses, and realized/unrealized capital gains (losses) on investments are allocated to the various share classes of the Funds on the basis of relative daily net assets of each share class. Fees relating to a specific share class are charged directly to the share class.

(e) Securities Traded on a To-Be-Announced Basis — Certain Funds may trade securities on a to-be-announced (“TBA”) basis. In a TBA transaction, a Fund commits to purchasing or selling securities which have not yet been issued by the issuer and for which specific information, such as the face amount, maturity date and underlying pool of investments in U.S. government agency mortgage pass-through securities, is not announced. Securities purchased on a TBA basis are not settled until they are delivered to the Fund. Beginning on the date a Fund enters into a TBA transaction, cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid high-grade debt obligations are segregated in an amount equal in value to the purchase price of the TBA security. These securities are subject to market fluctuations and their current value is determined in the same manner as for other securities.

(f) Derivative Instruments — Certain Funds may enter into derivative contracts for purposes of pursuing their investment objectives, to use as a substitute for a purchase or sale of a position in the underlying assets and/or as part of a strategy designed to reduce exposure to other risks. Open derivative positions as of March 31, 2016 are included on each Fund’s Schedule of Portfolio Investments.

(g) Forward Foreign Currency Contracts — Certain Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risk on non-U.S. dollar denominated securities or to facilitate settlement of a foreign currency denominated portfolio transaction. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price with delivery and settlement at a future date. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When a forward foreign currency contract is closed, through either delivery or offset by entering into another forward foreign currency contract, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it is closed.

Forward foreign currency contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the amounts reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds bear the risk of an unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rate underlying the forward foreign currency contract. Risks may also arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

(h) Futures Contracts — Certain Funds may enter into futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in interest rates or gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in certain asset classes. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit cash or cash equivalents with a broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the “initial margin” and subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. For certain futures, including foreign denominated futures, variation margin is not settled daily, but is recorded as a net variation margin payable or receivable. Futures contracts are valued daily at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The daily changes in contract value are recorded as unrealized gains or losses in the Statements of Operations and the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed.

Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the amounts reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, there is the risk that the Funds may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market.

(i) Foreign Currency Translation — Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing exchange rates, as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time), on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of such transactions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (continued)

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments and foreign currencies.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, including gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded and the amount actually received.

(j) Swap Contracts — Certain Funds may invest in swap contracts for the purpose of managing exposure to interest rate, credit or market risk, or for other purposes. The use of swap contracts involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio transactions. Swap contracts may be privately negotiated in the over-the-counter market (“OTC swaps”) or may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered commodities exchange (“centrally cleared swaps”).

OTC swap contracts are marked-to-market daily using an independent pricing vendor and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Daily changes in valuation of centrally cleared swaps, if any, are recorded as a receivable or payable, as applicable, for variation margin on centrally cleared swaps on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Gains or losses are realized upon termination of the swap contract. Collateral, in the form of restricted cash or securities, may be required to be held in segregated accounts with the Funds’ custodian in compliance with the terms of the swap contracts. Securities posted as collateral for swap contracts are identified in the Schedules of Portfolio Investments and restricted cash, if any, is identified on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Risks may exceed amounts recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These risks include changes in the returns of the underlying instruments, failure of the counterparties to perform under the contracts’ terms, and the possible lack of liquidity with respect to the swap contracts. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as a premium or deposit, respectively, on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are amortized over the life of the swap and are recognized as realized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Funds are recognized as a realized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations.

Credit Default Swaps

Certain Funds enter into credit default swap (“CDS”) contracts for investment purposes, to manage credit risk or to add leverage. CDS contracts involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate or sovereign issuers, on a specified obligation, or in the event of a write-down, principal shortfall, interest shortfall or default of all or part of the referenced entities comprising a credit index. The Funds may use a CDS contract to provide protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Funds have exposure to an issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default.

As a seller of protection, a Fund generally receives an upfront payment or a stream of payments throughout the term of the swap contracts provided that there is no credit event. These amounts of potential payments will be partially offset by any recovery of values from the respective referenced obligations. As a seller of protection, a Fund effectively adds leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, a Fund is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap contract. As a buyer of protection, a Fund generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap contract if a defined credit event occurs.

The Funds’ maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk, as the protection buyer, is the fair value of the swap contract (this risk is mitigated by the posting of collateral by the counterparty to the Fund to cover the Funds’ exposure to the counterparty). As the protection seller, the Funds’ maximum risk is the notional amount of the contract. CDS contracts are considered to have credit risk-related contingent features since they require payment by the protection seller to the protection buyer upon the occurrence of a defined credit event.

Implied spreads are the theoretical prices a lender receives for credit default protection. When spreads rise, market perceived credit risk rises and when spreads fall, market perceived credit risk falls. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to enter into the contract. Wider credit spreads and decreasing market values, when compared

to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the contract. Credit spreads utilized in determining the period end market value of CDS contracts on corporate or sovereign issues are disclosed in the Schedules of Portfolio Investments and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for credit derivatives. The quoted market prices and resulting values, particularly in relation to the notional amount of the contract as well as the annual payment rate, serve as an indication of the current status of the payment/performance risk for CDS contracts on asset-backed securities and credit indices.

Entering into a CDS contract involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these contracts, and that the counterparty to the contract may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of the contractual terms in the contract, and that there are unfavorable changes in net interest rates. As of March 31, 2016, the Funds had no outstanding CDS contracts.

Interest Rate Swaps

Certain Funds may enter into interest rate swap (“IRS”) contracts to manage exposure to interest rate risk. IRS contracts are agreements between two parties to exchange cash flows based on a notional principal amount. The Fund may elect to pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate, or, receive a fixed rate and pay a floating rate on a notional principal amount. IRS contracts are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers. When a swap contract is terminated early, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the original cost and the settlement amount of the closing transaction.

The risks of IRS contracts include changes in market conditions that will affect the value of the contract or changes in the present value of the future cash flow streams and the possible inability of the counterparty to fulfill its obligations under the contract. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty over the contract’s remaining life, to the extent that that amount is positive. This risk is mitigated by the posting of collateral by the counterparty to the Fund to cover the Fund’s exposure to the counterparty. As of March 31, 2016, the Funds had no outstanding IRS contracts.

The fair value of derivative instruments not accounted for as hedging instruments on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the effect of derivative instruments not accounted for as hedging instruments, on the Statements of Operations as of March 31, 2016, are presented in the table below:

portfolio securities are required to be fully collateralized by cash, letters of credit or U.S. government securities. The initial value of the collateral must be at least 102% of the market value of the securities loaned, if the securities loaned are U.S. securities (105% for non-U.S. securities); and maintained in an amount equal to at least 100% (103% for non-U.S. securities) thereafter. However, due to market fluctuations during the day, the value of securities loaned on a particular day may exceed the value of collateral. On each business day, the amount of collateral is adjusted based on the prior day’s market fluctuations and the current day’s lending activity. Income from lending activity is determined by the amount of interest earned on collateral, less any amounts payable to the borrowers of the securities and the lending agent. Lending securities involves certain risks; including the risk that a Fund may be delayed or prevented from recovering the collateral if the borrower fails to return the securities. A fee will be obtained from the borrower if letters of credit or U.S. government securities are used as collateral.

The Funds, in accordance with guidance presented, have adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (‘‘ASU 2014-11”), Balance Sheet (Topic) 860: Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. ASU 2014-11 is intended to provide increased transparency about the types of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and other similar transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowing.

For Seix Core Bond Fund, Seix Corporate Bond Fund, Seix High Income Fund, Seix High Yield Fund and Seix Total Return Bond Fund the value of the security loan obligation is classified as follows as of March 31, 2016:

(l) When-Issued Securities and Forward Commitments — Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by a Fund on a forward commitment or when-issued basis can take place up to a month or more after the transaction date at a fixed price. During this period, such securities are subject to market fluctuations. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis may increase the volatility of a Fund’s NAV if the Fund makes such investments while remaining substantially fully invested. A Fund records when-issued securities on trade date and will segregate or earmark liquid assets in an amount at least equal in value to its commitments to purchase when-issued and forward commitment securities or engage in other appropriate measures to “cover” its obligation. When-issued securities and the segregated liquid assets associated with such investments are presented within the Funds’ Schedules of Portfolio Investments.

(m) Bank Loans — Certain Funds may invest in first and second lien senior floating-rate loans (“bank loans”). These loans are made by banks and other large financial institutions to various companies and are senior in the borrowing companies’ capital structure. Coupon rates are floating, not fixed, and are tied to a benchmark lending rate. A Fund records an investment when the borrower withdraws money and records the interest as earned. Some types of senior loans in which these Funds may invest require that an open loan for a specific amount be continually offered to a borrower. These types of senior loans, commonly referred to as revolvers, contractually obligate the lender (and therefore those with an interest in the loan) to fund the loan at the borrower’s discretion. A Fund will maintain, on a daily basis, high quality, liquid assets in an amount at least equal in value to its contractual obligation to fulfill the revolving senior loan. Therefore, a Fund must have funds sufficient to cover its contractual obligation. In addition, bank loans generally are subject to extended settlement periods, which may impair the Fund’s ability to sell or realize the full value of its loans in the event of a need to liquidate such loans. As of March 31, 2016, the Funds had no unfunded loan commitments.

(n) Restricted Securities — Certain Funds’ investments are restricted as to resale. As of March 31, 2016, all of these restricted securities have been deemed liquid by the Funds’ investment adviser based upon procedures approved by the Board, unless stated otherwise on the Funds’ Schedules of Portfolio Investments.

(o) Credit and Market Risk — Certain Funds’ investments in securities that are collateralized by residential real estate mortgages are subject to certain credit and liquidity risks. When market conditions result in an increase in default rates of the underlying mortgages and the foreclosure values of underlying real estate properties are

materially below the outstanding amount of these underlying mortgages, collection of the full amount of accrued interest and principal on these investments may be doubtful. Such market conditions may significantly impair the value and liquidity of these investments and may result in a lack of correlation between their credit ratings and values.

(p) Foreign Investment Risks — Certain Funds’ investments in foreign securities may involve risks not present in domestic investments. Since securities may be denominated in foreign currencies, may require settlement in foreign currencies or pay interest or dividends in foreign currencies, changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the Fund. Foreign investments may also subject the Fund to foreign government exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic developments, all of which affect the market and/or credit risk of the investments.

For securities subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.

(q) Counterparty Risk and Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features of Derivative Instruments — Certain Funds may invest in certain securities or engage in other transactions where the Funds are exposed to counterparty credit risk in addition to broader market risks. The Funds may invest in securities of issuers, which may also be considered counterparties as trading partners in other transactions. This may increase the risk of loss in the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty or if the counterparty otherwise fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Funds’ Investment Adviser attempts to mitigate counterparty risk by (i) periodically assessing the creditworthiness of its trading partners, (ii) monitoring and/or limiting the amount of its net exposure to each individual counterparty based on its assessment and (iii) requiring collateral from the counterparty for certain transactions. Market events and changes in overall economic conditions may impact the assessment of such counterparty risk by the investment manager. In addition, declines in the values of underlying collateral received may expose the Funds to increased risk of loss.

(r) Other Risks — Certain Funds invest in high yield corporate, government, and other debt instruments of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers. High yield securities involve greater risk of default or downgrade and are more volatile than investment grade securities. A Fund’s concentration of investments in securities of issuers located in a specific region or state, subjects that Fund to the economic and government policies of the region or state, and may increase risk versus that of a fund whose investments are more diversified. Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for additional risks that may be associated with the Funds.

At March 31, 2016, one shareholder owned 100% of Seix Limited Duration Fund. Transaction activities of these shareholders may have a material effect on the respective Fund. Redemptions of these shareholders’ holdings in the Fund may impact the Fund’s liquidity and net asset value. Such redemptions may force the Fund to sell securities.

(s) Federal and Other Taxes — It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the federal income and excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the Funds intend to distribute taxable income and net realized gains, if any, to shareholders in accordance with timing requirements imposed by the Code. Therefore, no federal or state income tax provision is required in the Funds’ financial statements.

Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken on income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of March 31, 2016, no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue. As of March 31, 2016, open tax years include the tax years of March 31, 2013 through 2016.

Under the applicable foreign tax laws, a withholding tax may be imposed on interest, dividends and capital gains at various rates. The Funds will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon their current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which they invest.

(t) Reclassification — GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per share.

(u) Line of Credit —The Funds entered into a committed unsecured revolving line of credit agreement (“LOC”) with a syndicate of banks which includes State Street Bank and Trust (“State Street Bank”) and Royal Bank of Canada (“RBC”), for an aggregate amount of $200,000,000. The proceeds may be used only to (1) temporarily finance the purchase and sale of securities; or (2) finance the redemption of shares of the Funds. The Funds will pay a commitment fee on a pro rata basis to State Street Bank and RBC, in the amount of 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the LOC. Borrowings under the LOC will accrue interest at the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate, or (b) the One-month LIBOR Rate, plus 1.25% per annum. Generally, repayments must be made within 60 days of the borrowings. Commitment fees and interest expense paid to State Street Bank and RBC pursuant to this agreement are reflected on the Statements of Operations as a component of Other Fees. Prior to the September 23, 2015 syndicated agreement, a credit agreement with State Street Bank permitted an aggregate amount of $250,000,000 under similar terms and interest rates as described above. As of March 31, 2016, the Seix High Yield Fund had outstanding borrowings under the LOC.

The following Funds had an outstanding loan during the year. The borrowings were valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

3. Investment Adviser and Other Service Providers

Investment Adviser — RidgeWorth Investments (“Investment Adviser”) serves as the investment adviser to the Funds. The Trust and the Investment Adviser have entered into an investment advisory agreement (“Advisory Agreement”). The Investment Adviser is a money-management holding company with multiple style-focused investment boutiques. The subadviser for the Funds is Seix Investment Advisors LLC (“Subadviser”). Seix is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser pays the Subadviser out of the investment advisory fees it receives from the Funds.

Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Funds are charged annual advisory fees, which are computed daily and paid monthly based upon average daily net assets. Breakpoints are used in computing the overall annual advisory fee. The maximum annual advisory fee is charged on average daily net assets of each Fund up to $500 million. A discount of 5% applies on the next $500 million, a discount of 10% applies on the next $4 billion and a discount of 15% applies on amounts over $5 billion. Fee rates for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 were as follows:

Under the Expense Limitation Agreement, the Investment Adviser may retain the difference between the Contractual Expense Limitation identified above and the actual total expenses to recapture any of its prior contractual waivers or reimbursements at a date not to exceed three years from the date of such waivers or reimbursements. Such repayments shall be made monthly, but only to the extent that such repayments would not cause the annualized total expense ratio to exceed, if lower, the contractual expense limitation in place at the time of the waiver or reimbursement.

Under certain circumstances, the Investment Advisor may choose to voluntarily waive fees. In the event that the Investment Advisor voluntarily waives any fees, these waived fees are not subject to recoupment by the Investment Advisor. The Investment Adviser has voluntarily undertaken to reduce and/or subsidize certain expenses of the Seix Limited Duration Fund, Seix Short-Term Bond Fund and Seix U.S. Mortgage Fund to the extent necessary to maintain a minimum annualized yield of 0.0% for each of the Fund’s share classes. This voluntary expense reduction and/or expense subsidy may be modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice and is not subject to recoupment. There can be no assurance that this fee reduction will be sufficient to avoid any loss. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, Seix Limited Duration Fund, Seix Short-Term Bond Fund, Seix Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund and Seix U.S. Mortgage Fund had voluntary reimbursements in the amount of $34, $4,722, $24 and $7, respectively.

6. Federal Income Tax Information

The following information is presented on an income tax basis and takes into consideration differences between amounts for financial statement and income tax purposes. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature (e.g., foreign currency transactions and return of capital on securities), such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their U.S. federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.

The effects of certain differences reclassified as of March 31, 2016 were as follows:

Pursuant to federal income tax rules applicable to regulated investment companies, the Funds may elect to treat certain capital losses between November 1 and March 31 and late year ordinary losses (i) ordinary losses between January 1 and March 31, and (ii) specified ordinary and currency losses between November 1 and March 31 as occurring on the first day of the following tax year. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, any amount of losses elected as late year ordinary losses within the tax return will not be recognized for federal income tax purposes until April 1, 2016.

 

7. Reorganizations

On May 20, 2014, the Board approved the reorganization of the RidgeWorth Short-Term U.S. Treasury Securities Fund (the “Target Fund”) into the RidgeWorth U.S. Government Securities Ultra-Short Bond Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”), a separate series of the Trust. On August 1, 2014, the Acquiring Fund acquired all of the net assets of the Target Fund in a tax-free exchange of shares. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two portfolios with comparable investment objectives and strategies.

The appreciation (depreciation) of the acquired fund was $9,669 as of the date of the merger. The combined net assets of the Acquiring Fund immediately after the reorganization were $1,786,800,909.

Assuming the acquisition had been completed on April 1, 2014, the beginning of the reporting period of the Acquiring Fund, the Acquiring Fund’s pro forma results of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, were as follows:

 

Net Investment Income (Loss)

     $9,708,863   

Net Realized and Unrealized Gains/Losses on Investments

     $4,096,899   

Net Increase/Decrease in Net Assets resulting from Operations

     $13,805,762   

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Target Fund that has been included in the Acquiring Fund’s Statement of Operations as of March 31, 2015.

On May 21, 2015, the Board approved the reorganization of the RidgeWorth Intermediate Bond Fund (the “Target Fund”) into the RidgeWorth Core Bond Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”), a separate series of the Trust. On August 3, 2015, the Acquiring Fund acquired all of the net assets of the Target Fund in a tax-free exchange of shares. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two portfolios with comparable investment objectives and strategies.

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

 

On May 21, 2015, the Board approved the reorganization of the RidgeWorth U.S. Government Securities Fund (the “Target Fund”) into the RidgeWorth Limited-Term Federal Mortgage Securities Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”), a separate series of the Trust. On August 1, 2015, the Acquiring Fund was renamed RidgeWorth Seix U.S. Mortgage Fund and acquired all of the net assets of the Target Fund in a taxable exchange of shares. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two portfolios with comparable investment objectives and strategies.

The appreciation (depreciation) of the acquired fund was $113,976 as of the date of the merger. The combined net assets of the Acquiring Fund immediately after the reorganization were $32,289,899.

Assuming the acquisition had been completed on April 1, 2015, the beginning of the reporting period of the Acquiring Fund, the Acquiring Fund’s pro forma results of operations for the year ended March 31, 2016, were as follows:

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Target Fund that has been included in the Acquiring Fund’s Statement of Operations as of March 31, 2016.

 

8. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-07 Disclosure for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). The amendments in ASU No. 2015-07 remove the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy investments measured using the net asset value per share (“NAV”) practical expedient. The ASU also removes certain disclosure requirements for investments that qualify, but do not utilize, the NAV practical expedient. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact these changes will have on the Fund’s financial statements and related disclosures.

 

9. Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued. Management has determined that there are no material events that would require disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements through this date.

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of RidgeWorth Funds:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of portfolio investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Seix Core Bond Fund (formerly, “Core Bond Fund”), Seix Corporate Bond Fund (formerly, “Corporate Bond Fund”), Seix Floating Rate High Income Fund, Seix Georgia Tax-Exempt Bond Fund (formerly, “Georgia Tax-Exempt Bond Fund”), Seix High Grade Municipal Bond Fund (formerly, “High Grade Municipal Bond Fund”), Seix High Income Fund (formerly, “High Income Fund”), Seix High Yield Fund, Seix Investment Grade Tax-Exempt Bond Fund (formerly, “Investment Grade Tax-Exempt Bond Fund”), Seix Limited Duration Fund (formerly, “Limited Duration Fund”), Seix North Carolina Tax-Exempt Bond Fund (formerly, “North Carolina Tax-Exempt Bond Fund”), Seix Short-Term Bond Fund (formerly, “Short-Term Bond Fund”), Seix Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund (formerly, “Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund”), Seix Total Return Bond Fund (formerly, “Total Return Bond Fund”), Seix U.S. Government Securities Ultra-Short Bond Fund (formerly, “U.S. Government Securities Ultra-Short Bond Fund”), Seix U.S. Mortgage Fund (formerly, “Limited-Term Federal Mortgage Securities Fund”), Seix Ultra-Short Bond Fund (formerly, “Ultra-Short Bond Fund”), and Seix Virginia Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund (formerly, “Virginia Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund”) (seventeen of the funds constituting RidgeWorth Funds, collectively the “Funds”) at March 31, 2016, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at March 31, 2016 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, and application of alternative auditing procedures where securities purchased had not been received, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

(Unaudited)

 

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY AGREEMENTS

The continuance of the Trust’s investment advisory agreement with RidgeWorth Capital Management LLC (the “Adviser”) and subadvisory agreement between the Adviser and Seix Investment Advisors LLC (the “Subadviser”) must be specifically approved at least annually by (i) the vote of the Trustees or a vote of the shareholders of the Funds and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the agreements or “interested persons” of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. New advisory agreements for the Trust are also subject to such approval initially and annually after their initial term is complete.

Each year, the Board of Trustees calls and holds a meeting to decide whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s agreements for another year. In preparation for the meeting, the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of information from the Adviser and Subadviser. The Trustees use this information, as well as other information that the Adviser, Subadviser, and other service providers may submit to the Board, to help them decide whether to approve the agreements.

In considering the renewal of the agreements with the Adviser and Subadviser, the Board requested and received material from the Adviser and Subadviser in preparation for a special meeting of the Board held on October 8, 2015, and requested and reviewed additional material from the Adviser and Subadviser in preparation for its quarterly meeting held on November 16-17, 2015, at which it specifically considered the renewal of the agreements. Such material included, among other things, information about: (a) the quality of the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s investment management and other services; (b) the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s investment management personnel; (c) the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s operations and financial condition; (d) the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s brokerage practices (including any soft dollar arrangements) and investment strategies; (e) the level of the advisory fees that the Adviser and Subadviser charge the Funds compared with the fees they charge to comparable mutual funds or accounts; (f) the Funds’ overall fees and operating expenses compared with similar mutual funds; (g) the level of the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s profitability from their Fund-related operations; (h) the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s compliance systems; (i) the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s policies and procedures for personal securities transactions; (j) the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s reputation, expertise, and resources in domestic financial markets; and (k) the Funds’ performance compared with similar mutual funds. The Board also received a memorandum from fund counsel regarding the responsibilities of the Trustees in connection with their consideration of the agreements.

At the meetings, representatives from the Adviser and Subadviser presented additional oral and written information to the Board to help the Board evaluate the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s fees and other aspects of the agreements. The Board also considered information presented by the Adviser, Subadviser, and other service providers at meetings held throughout the year. The Trustees discussed the written materials, oral presentations, and any other information that the Board received, and considered the approval of the agreements in light of this information.

Based on the Board’s deliberations and evaluation of the information it received, the Board, all of whose members are Independent Trustees, approved the renewal of the agreements with the Adviser and Subadviser and determined that the compensation under the agreements is fair and reasonable in light of the services to be performed. The Board considered the following specific factors, none of which was controlling, and made the following conclusions:

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services.    The Board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Subadviser. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s personnel, experience, track record, and compliance program. The Board considered the background and experience of the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s senior management and the expertise of, and amount of attention given to the Funds by, their portfolio management teams. The Board reviewed the qualifications and backgrounds of the portfolio managers responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds. The Board also reviewed information pertaining to the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s organizational structure, senior management, investment operations, and other relevant information. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Subadviser supported the approval of the agreements.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT  (concluded)

 

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS    March 31, 2016

(Unaudited)

 

Performance.    The Board considered the investment performance of each Fund, including any periods of outperformance and underperformance, both on an absolute basis and a comparative basis to indices and other funds within the same investment categories. Specifically, the Board considered Fund performance relative to peer groups and appropriate benchmarks in light of total return, yield, and market trends. As part of this review, the Board considered the composition of the peer group and selection criteria, as well as market risk and shareholder risk expectations. The Board considered the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s explanations regarding specific performance issues. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the performance of the Funds, the Adviser, and the Subadviser supported the approval of the agreements.

Fund Expenses.    With respect to advisory fees, the Board considered the rate of compensation under the agreements and each Fund’s net operating expense ratio in comparison to those of comparable mutual funds. The Trustees also considered information about average expense ratios of comparable mutual funds in each Fund’s peer group. Finally, the Trustees considered the effect of the Adviser’s and Subadviser’s waiver and reimbursement of fees and expenses, where applicable, to prevent total expenses from exceeding a specified amount and that, due to these waivers and reimbursements, net operating expenses have been maintained at competitive levels. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported the approval of the agreements.

Profitability.    The Board reviewed information about the profitability of the Funds to the Adviser and Subadviser and considered whether the level of profitability, if any, was reasonable and justified in light of the quality of the services rendered to the Funds. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the profitability of the Adviser and Subadviser is within the range the Board considered reasonable.

Economies of Scale.    The Board considered the existence of economies of scale and whether they were passed along to Fund shareholders through a graduated advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the Adviser and Subadviser. The Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.

Expense Examples

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

These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from October 1, 2015 through March 31, 2016.

Actual Expenses

The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, 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 table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example

The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each RidgeWorth Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

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

(e)(1) Audit Committee’s Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

RIDGEWORTH FUNDS

Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy

 

I. Statement of Principles

As set forth in the chart below, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”), and rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) require that the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees pre-approve all audit services and non-audit services provided to RidgeWorth Funds (the “Trust”) and its portfolios (the “Funds”) by its independent accountant (“Auditor”), as well as non-audit services provided by the Auditor to the Funds’ investment adviser and to affiliates of the adviser that provide ongoing services to the Funds (“Service Affiliates”), listed on Appendix A, if the services directly impact the Funds’ operations and financial reporting.1

Where Pre-Approval is Required

 

     Audit Service   

Non-Audit Service

Fund

   Yes    Yes

Adviser

   No    Yes, if directly related to Fund operation and financial reporting

Service Affiliate

   No    Yes, if directly related to Fund operation and financial reporting

 

 

 

1  The Audit Committee also is permitted to ratify the provision of inadvertent non-audit services, but only if:
¡ the value of all such services do not exceed 5% of total revenues paid by the Trust and Service Affiliates to the Auditor in the fiscal year when services are provided;
¡ the services were not recognized as non-audit services at the time they were provided; and
¡ the services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee and approved prior to the completion of the audit.

 

 


Table of Contents

The following policies and procedures (except Section IX) govern the ways in which the Audit Committee will pre-approve audit and various types of non-audit services that the Auditor provides to the Trust and to Service Affiliates. These policies and procedures do not apply in the case of audit services that the Auditor provides to Service Affiliates, nor do they apply to services that an audit firm other than the Auditor provides to such entities.

These policies and procedures comply with the requirements for pre-approval, but also provide a mechanism by which management of the Trust may request and secure pre-approval of audit and non-audit services in an orderly manner with minimal disruption to normal business operations. Pre-approval of non-audit services by the Auditor may be achieved through a combination of the procedures described in Section VI below.

With respect to non-audit services that may be provided to the Trust by an accounting firm other than the Auditor, the Chairperson of the Audit Committee is authorized to pre-approve such services in accordance with the procedures described in Section IX below.

 

II. Audit Services

The annual audit services engagement scope and terms will be subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. Audit services include the annual financial statement audit (including required rating agency reviews) and other procedures required to be performed by the independent auditor to be able to form an opinion on the Trust’s financial statements. The Audit Committee will monitor the audit services engagement throughout the year and will also approve, if necessary, any changes in terms and conditions resulting from changes in audit scope, Fund structure or other items. The Audit Committee will pre-approve all audit services for the Trust.

 

III. Audit-related Services

Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Trust’s financial statements or that are traditionally performed by the Auditor. The Audit Committee will pre-approve all audit-related services for the Trust.

 

IV. Tax Services

Tax services to the Trust include tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice. The Audit Committee will review all proposed tax related services to assure that their provision would not impair the independence of the Auditor. The Audit Committee will pre-approve all tax services for the Trust.

 

V. All Other Services

While the SEC’s rules prohibit the Auditor from providing specific non-audit services, as listed on Appendix A, certain other types of non-audit services are permitted. Accordingly, the Audit Committee believes it may pre-approve those permissible non-audit services classified as All Other Services that it believes would not impair the independence of the Auditor, and are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence. The Audit Committee will pre-approve all other services for the Trust.

 

VI. Procedures

 

  A. Regular Pre-Approval Procedures

The Audit Committee shall pre-approve at its regularly scheduled meetings the audit, audit-related, tax and other non-audit services to be rendered by the Auditor to the Trust and those non-audit services to be rendered by the Auditor to the Service Affiliates that require pre-approval by the Audit Committee. In connection with such pre-approvals, the Auditor, or the President and/or Treasurer with the assistance of the Auditor, shall provide the Audit Committee with a report containing information about each type of service to be pre-approved at the meeting, an explanation of why the service is being performed, and projected fees.


Table of Contents

The Auditor shall notify the President, Treasurer, and Chairperson of the Audit Committee as soon as practicable regarding its engagement to provide Fund-related non-audit services to Service Affiliates.

 

  B. Interim Pre-Approval Procedures

If, in the opinion of the President and/or Treasurer, a proposed engagement needs to commence before the next regularly scheduled Audit Committee meeting, the Chairperson of the Audit Committee (the “Chairperson”) is authorized to pre-approve the engagement so long as the amount to be paid to the Auditor would not exceed $50,000. The President and/or Treasurer will coordinate with the Chairperson and provide to the Chairperson, with the assistance of the Auditor, information about the service to be considered for pre-approval. The Auditor may not commence the engagement under consideration until the President and/or Treasurer has indicated that pre-approval has been obtained from the Chairperson. The Chairperson will report any interim pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

 

VII. Recordkeeping

The Trust shall maintain a written record of all decisions made by the Audit Committee or by the Chairperson of the Audit Committee pursuant to these procedures, together with appropriate supporting material. In connection with the ratification of any inadvertent non-audit services, a record shall be made indicating that each of the conditions for this exception to the pre-approval requirement has been satisfied.

 

VIII. Amendment

The Audit Committee may review and amend these policies and procedures from time to time as it deems appropriate.

 

IX. Interim Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services By Other Accounting Firms

If, in the opinion of the President and/or Treasurer, a proposed engagement for non-audit services to the Trust by an accounting firm other than the Auditor needs to commence before the next regularly scheduled Audit Committee meeting, the Chairperson is authorized to pre-approve the engagement so long as the amount to be paid to the accounting firm would not exceed $50,000. The Chairperson will report any interim pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
