Fund Performance Discussion

Oppenheimer Rochester Fund Municipals continued to generate attractive levels of tax-free income during the most recent reporting period. As of December 31, 2018, the Class A shares provided a yield-driven annual total return of 8.88% at net asset value (NAV) and a distribution yield of 3.36% at NAV. Additionally, the Fund’s Class A shares outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Index, its benchmark, by 760 basis points. For New York State and New York City residents in the top 2018 tax bracket, the taxable equivalent yield was 5.65% and 5.92%, respectively.

 

MARKET OVERVIEW

The reporting period ended with a ninth consecutive quarter-point increase of the Fed Funds target interest rate. The Federal Reserve Open Market Committee (FOMC) set it to the range of 2.25% to 2.50% on December 19, 2018. While this increase, the fourth in this reporting period, was expected, the U.S. equities markets reacted sharply to the concurrent announcement that 2019 would likely see two or fewer rate increases; earlier indications were for the FOMC to increase the rate at least three times in 2019.

The first quarter-point increase of this reporting period was announced after the

 

 

The average 12-month distribution yield in Lipper’s New York Municipal Debt Funds category was 2.95% at the end of this reporting period. At 3.44%, the 12-month distribution yield at NAV for this Fund’s Class A shares was 49 basis points higher than the category average.

 

 

 

FOMC’s March 2018 meeting. At the time, Fed officials noted that the economic outlook was strengthening. On June 13, 2018, the FOMC raised the Fed Funds target rate again, this time to the range of 1.75% to 2.00%,

citing a strengthening labor market and a “solid rate” of economic growth.

In an interview in November 2018, Federal Reserve Vice Chair Richard Clarida suggested the Fed needs to rely heavily on data regarding future rate increases, because current rates are in the “vicinity” of a neutral policy rate (2.5% to 3.5%). The target range had been set to the range of zero to 0.25% between December 2008 and December 2015.

The Fed’s efforts to “normalize” its balance sheet, which began in October 2017 with reductions of $10 billion a month, continued throughout this reporting period. As of December 2018, reductions reached $30 billion a month, below the expected rate of $50 billion a month by year-end 2018.

At the end of this reporting period, the BofA Merrill Lynch AAA Municipal Securities Index – the AAA subset of the broader BofA Merrill Lynch US Municipal Securities Index – yielded 2.48%, 42 basis points higher than at the reporting period’s outset.

Yields on high-grade municipal bonds and Treasuries alike increased as the Fed Funds rate rose in 2018, but it is important to note that long-term muni rates are set not by the Fed but by the market. Between June 2004 and August 2006, investors may recall, the Fed governors approved 17 consecutive increases to the Fed Funds rate but long-term muni yields trended lower.

Yields on the long end of the muni curve rose more during this reporting period than yields on securities with maturities of 10 years or less. The muni yield curve, which in late 2017 was flatter than at any time since late 2007, steepened slightly during this reporting period; meanwhile, the U.S. Treasury curve continued to flatten as prices, especially at the short end of the curve, fell.

At the end of the reporting period, the slope of the Treasury yield curve between 1- and 3-year Treasuries was negative – that is, inverted – and 1-year government paper offered higher yields than all Treasuries with maturities of 7 years or less. Given that the yield on a 10-year Treasury was just 6 basis points higher than the yield on a 1-year Treasury on December 31, 2018, the reward for taking on 10-year risk was scant.

As a result of the changes in the two yield curves, 30-year AAA-rated munis continued to be considered “cheap to Treasuries.” At the end of this reporting period, the yield on the 30-year, AAA-rated muni was slightly higher than the yield on the 30-year Treasury, meaning that all taxpayers would earn more on an after-tax basis by investing in the muni versus the Treasury. At 5- and 10-year maturities, the tax-equivalent yield (TEY) of a muni investment was greater than the Treasury yield for taxpayers with top marginal federal tax rates of at least 25% and 15%, respectively.

A $168 billion budget for New York State’s fiscal year 2019 passed in March 2018. It was

 

 

5       OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


the eighth consecutive budget with increased spending. To close a $4.4 billion spending gap, the new budget proposes $750 million in new taxes and fees, including a tax on opioid manufacturers, a corporation windfall tax credit, and an “internet fairness tax” that would require online marketplaces to collect sales tax from all third-party sales to New Yorkers, even if the seller is not located in New York; the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in South Dakota vs. Wayfair, announced in June 2018, will require certain online retailers to do the same nationwide. Other provisions include a 3% increase in school aid, $1.9 billion for energy and environment spending, $70 billion for Medicaid, and $7.4 billion for higher education.

New York State sold $215.2 million of tax-exempt and taxable general obligation (G.O.) bonds in March 2018. Proceeds will be used for transportation, education, and environmental purposes. Approximately $69 million will be used to refund a portion of outstanding G.O. bonds. At the end of this reporting period, the state’s G.O. bonds were rated Aa1 by Moody’s Investors Service, and AA-plus by S&P Global Ratings (S&P) and Fitch Ratings. G.O.s are backed by the full faith and taxing authority of the state or local government that issues them.

The Resorts Worldwide Catskills casino in the town of Monticello opened in February 2018, and in March 2018, the Oneida Nation opened a smoke-free casino in Bridgeport. Although casinos have recently been built in the Finger Lakes, Schenectady, and the

Southern Tier, revenues (and the taxes owed on them) are behind projections at all properties. State officials are nonetheless calling for patience, stating that it takes at least three years for a casino’s business to stabilize, while also highlighting that job creation and construction spending have already helped boost local economies.

The Seneca Nation of Indians filed a lawsuit in April 2018 against New York State seeking to remit Thruway toll revenue from a nearly 3-mile stretch of road was built through tribal territory 60 years ago. The plaintiffs’ attorneys argued that the Seneca Nation should be compensated for the use of the land and that the state should stop collecting tolls.

In November 2018, Gov. Andrew Cuomo easily won re-election to a third term with Democrats gaining full control of the State Legislature for the first time in more than a decade. Many New Yorkers believe that this change in leadership will result in new fiscal policies and increased spending on certain state programs.

In June 2018, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and the City Council agreed on a $89.2 billion budget for fiscal year 2019. The spending plan was slightly higher than the budget de Blasio proposed earlier in the year, and 4.7% higher than the prior budget. Since the mayor took office in January 2015, spending is up approximately 20%. The 2019 plan calls for $1.125 billion in the general reserve fund and $4.35 billion in the retiree health benefits trust fund, up $125 million

 

 

6       OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


and $100 million, respectively. The budget also funds a “fair fares” discount for low-income subway riders for one year, allocates school funds based on a system based on enrolled students’ educational needs (Fair Student Funding) , and includes $12 million to equip all police department patrol officers with body cameras, $13 million to handle heating needs for residents in low-income housing, and $26 million to build four new pre-K schools.

Also in June, Gov. Cuomo signed a bill that defines a corridor within which construction for a LaGuardia Airport AirTrain project could be undertaken. If the project moves as planned, construction would begin in 2020 and conclude in 2022. The governor estimates that the ride between midtown Manhattan and the airport would take less than 30 minutes. The 70-year-old airport is currently undergoing an $8 billion overhaul.

Mid-reporting period, Comptroller Scott Stringer proposed 65 changes to the city’s Constitution. The Comptroller’s suggested reforms include a structured capital budget, more comprehensive information about the condition of capital assets, and reporting on the changes in the cost of capital projects.

In December 2018, Mayor de Blasio announced the $24 billion NYCHA 2.0 plan to deal with the city’s housing crisis, featuring three new programs: Build to Preserve ($2 billion in capital repairs), Transfer to Preserve ($1 billion through the sale of air rights), and Fix to Preserve (to improve services,

infrastructure maintenance, and address health and safety problems). The authority serves 400,000 residents, or 5% of the city’s population, in 175,000 apartments.

As of December 31, 2018, Fitch and S&P affirmed their AA ratings for New York City’s G.O. bonds and Moody’s assigned an Aa2 rating.

The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the federal oversight board established by PROMESA (the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Act) continued to generate headlines throughout this reporting period; additional information about the developments in Puerto Rico can be found on our online PR Roundup (oppenheimerfunds.com/puerto-rico).

In response to Hurricane Maria, the Commonwealth has been the recipient of a wide array of federal aid, including billions in disaster relief funds and thousands of “boots on the ground.” Losses in the Commonwealth are estimated to total $37 billion, and disaster relief appears to be double that amount, according to Axios, a new mobile media platform.

Throughout this reporting period, several Puerto Rico issuers continued to remain current in their debt payments, including PRASA, the Commonwealth’s aqueduct and sewer authority; the University of Puerto Rico; the Municipal Finance Agency, and the Children’s Trust, which handles payments on the tobacco bonds backed by Puerto Rico’s

 

 

7       OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


share of the proceeds from the 1998 Master Settlement Agreement. However, Puerto Rico has not honored the debt-service obligations on G.O. securities since 2016.

The Puerto Rico Treasury Department reported a bank cash position of $3.646 billion at the end of this reporting period, which in our opinion does not align with the government’s assertion that it cannot make payments on its G.O. debt.

Debt restructuring agreements related to PREPA and COFINA debt were announced during this reporting period; PREPA debt is issued by Puerto Rico’s electric utility authority and COFINA debt is backed by sales and use tax (SUT) collections. Assuming it is approved by U.S. District Court Judge Laura Taylor Swain, the COFINA agreement will become effective in early 2019. Details of the PREPA restructuring had not been hammered out as of December 31, 2018, and absolute recoveries will depend on a variety of factors.

Gov. Ricardo Rosselló Nevares released a lengthy economic and disaster recovery plan that outlines his case for seeking outside funding of $139.1 billion over the next 10 years. Also during this reporting period, the government has enacted tax measures that are expected to reduce collections by nearly $2 billion over the next 5 years and distributed Christmas bonuses to public sector employees. While the governor has said that these moves will be revenue neutral, the Oversight Board established by PROMESA has challenged that assertion and its relationship

with the governor has remained tense.

Bonds issued in Puerto Rico provided a total return of 6.0% during this reporting period, according to the Bloomberg Barclays index of securities issued there. High yield paper issued in Puerto Rico offered a total return of 36.4%. Nonetheless the situation remains dynamic, and investors should note that all issuers can be affected positively or adversely by economic and fiscal conditions: were the economic situation in Puerto Rico to worsen, for example, then the performance of Rochester municipal funds that hold Puerto Rican debt, including this Fund, may be adversely affected.

Our team will continue to work constructively with all parties involved as we seek the best overall return for our shareholders and a sustainable path forward for Puerto Rico.

FUND PERFORMANCE

Oppenheimer Rochester Fund Municipals held more than 720 securities as of December 31, 2018. The Fund was invested in a broad range of sectors, providing shareholders with a diversity of holdings that we believe would be difficult and costly to replicate in an individual portfolio.

During this reporting period, persistent low interest rates put pressure on the dividends of many fixed income investments. This Fund’s Class A dividend, which was 4.6 cents per share at the outset of this reporting period, was reduced to 4.3 cents per share beginning

 

 

8       OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


with the March 2018 payout. In all, the Fund distributed 52.2 cents per Class A share this reporting period. Toward the end of this reporting period, the Rochester team decided to increase the daily dividend accrual for this Fund in anticipation of a higher January 2019 payout.

Eight of the Fund’s 10 largest sectors were among the 10 strongest contributors to positive performance this reporting period. The Fund’s total return this reporting period was primarily driven by its holdings of sales tax revenue bonds. Debt-service payments on securities in this sector, the Fund’s fifth largest, are paid using the issuing municipality’s sales tax revenue. COFINA bonds, backed by Puerto Rico’s SUT, represent more than half of the assets in this sector, which also includes one security issued by the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Of the top sectors listed on page 11 of this report, only two were not among the 10 best-performing sectors this reporting period: the tobacco bonds sector, which consists of securities backed by proceeds from the 1998 Master Settlement Agreement, and the water utilities sector.

Research-based security selection continued to be a factor in the strong performance of these sectors. The bonds in the highway/ commuter facilities sector, including several issued by Puerto Rico and one by the U.S. Virgin Islands, are used to build and maintain roadways and highway amenities. This sector was the Fund’s second largest and the eighth

strongest contributor to performance this reporting period. The higher education sector, the Fund’s third largest sector and its sixth strongest contributor to total return this reporting period, and the hospital/healthcare sector, the Fund’s tenth largest sector and its tenth-best contributor to performance, include many investment-grade securities. As of December 31, 2018, both sectors included several bonds issued in Puerto Rico. Holdings in the marine/aviation facilities sector, this Fund’s fourth largest sector and ninth-best performer, are typically high-grade investments backed by valuable collateral. This sector included one bond issued in the Northern Mariana Islands. The Special Tax sector, which includes securities that are backed by various taxes, was the sixth largest sector and the seventh strongest performer for this reporting period. The G.O. sector, the Fund’s seventh largest sector and third best performer as of December 31, 2018, consists of bonds issued by various municipalities, and many of the Fund’s holdings are insured. This sector held several bonds issued in Puerto Rico and two bonds issued in the Northern Mariana Islands at the end of the reporting period. The electric utilities sector, the Fund’s eighth largest as of December 31, 2018, was the fourth strongest contributor to performance this reporting period. The Fund’s PREPA bonds represented less than one-half of 1% of the Fund’s assets as of December 31, 2018. The electric utilities sector also included three bonds issued in Guam.

Market conditions, primarily pricing pressure on high-grade securities, caused the real

 

 

9       OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


estate sector, the diversified financial services sector, and the small paper, containers and packaging sector to detract slightly from the Fund’s performance during the reporting period. In aggregate, these three sectors reduced the Fund’s performance by less than one-tenth of 1%.

The Fund’s investments in securities issued in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico contributed positively to the Fund’s total return this reporting period. The securities are exempt from federal, state, and local income taxes, and the Fund’s holdings as of December 31, 2018 included securities from many different sectors.

Investors should note that some of this Fund’s investments in securities issued in Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and New York are insured. A complete listing of securities held by this Fund can be found in

this report’s Statement of Investments.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY

The Rochester investment team focuses exclusively on municipal bonds, and this Fund invests primarily in investment-grade municipal securities. It may invest up to 25% of its total assets in below-investment grade securities, or “junk” bonds; the percentage of assets and the credit quality of the securities are measured at the time of purchase. Additionally, the credit quality is based on Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”) ratings or, if no NRSRO rating, on internal ratings.

In closing, we believe that the structure and sector composition of this Fund and the use of time-tested strategies will continue to benefit fixed income investors through interest rate and economic cycles.

The percentages above are based on the market value of the securities as of December 31, 2018 and are subject to change. OppenheimerFunds, Inc. determines the credit allocation of the Fund’s assets using ratings by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (NRSROs), such as S&P Global Ratings (S&P). For any security rated by an NRSRO other than S&P, the sub-adviser, OppenheimerFunds, Inc., converts that security’s rating to the equivalent S&P rating. If two or more NRSROs have assigned a rating to a security, the highest rating is used. For securities not rated by an NRSRO, the sub-adviser uses its own credit analysis to assign ratings in categories similar to those of S&P. The use of similar categories is not an indication that the sub-adviser’s credit analysis process is consistent or comparable with any NRSRO’s process were that NRSRO to rate the same security.

For the purposes of this Credit Allocation table, securities rated within the NRSROs’ four highest categories – AAA, AA, A, and BBB – are investment-grade securities. For further details, please consult the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information.

Performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns do not consider capital gains or income taxes on an individual’s investments. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.800.CALLOPP (225.5677). Fund returns include changes in share price, reinvested distributions, and the applicable sales charge: for Class A shares, the current maximum initial sales charge of 4.75% and for Class C, the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the 1- year period. There is no sales charge for Class Y shares. Because Class B shares convert to Class A shares 72 months after purchase, the 10-year return for Class B shares uses Class A performance for the period after conversion.

The Fund’s performance is compared to the performance of the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Index, an index of a broad range of investment-grade municipal bonds that measures the performance of the general municipal bond market. The Fund’s performance is also compared to the Consumer Price Index, a non-securities index that measures changes in the inflation rate. Indices are unmanaged and cannot be purchased by investors. While index comparisons may be useful to provide a benchmark for the Fund’s performance, it must be noted that the Fund’s investments are not limited to the investments comprising the indices. Index performance includes reinvestment of income, but does not reflect transaction costs, fees, expenses, or taxes. Index performance is shown for illustrative purposes only as a benchmark for the Fund’s performance, and does not predict or depict performance of the Fund. The Fund’s performance reflects the effects of the Fund’s business and operating expenses.

Distribution yields for Class A shares are based on dividends of $0.043 for the 34-day accrual period ended December 31, 2018. The yield without sales charge for Class A shares is calculated by dividing annualized dividends by the Class A net asset value on December 31, 2018; for the yield with sales charge, the denominator is the Class A maximum offering price on that date. Distribution yields for Class C and Y are annualized based on dividends of $0.0322 and $0.0464, respectively, for the 34-day accrual period ended December 31, 2018, and on the corresponding net asset values on that date.

Standardized yield is based on an SEC-standardized formula designed to approximate the Fund’s annualized hypothetical current income from securities less expenses for the 30-day period ended December 31, 2018 and that date’s maximum offering price (for Class A shares) or net asset value (for all other share classes). Each result is compounded semiannually and annualized. Falling share prices artificially increase yields. The unsubsidized standardized yield is computed under an SEC-standardized formula based on net income earned for the 30-day period ended December 31, 2018. The calculation excludes any expense reimbursements and thus may result in a lower yield.

The average distribution yield in Lipper’s New York Municipal Debt Funds category was calculated based on the distributions and the final net asset values (NAVs) of the reporting period for the funds in each category. The 12-month distribution yield is the sum of a fund’s total trailing 12-month interest and dividend payments divided by the last month’s ending share price (at NAV) plus any capital gains distributed over the same period. The calculation included 91 NAVs, one for each class of each fund in the category; a fund can have up to 4 classes. Lipper yields do not include sales charges, which – if included – would reduce results.

Taxable equivalent yield is based on the standardized yield and the 2018 top federal and New York State tax rate of 46.36% (48.80% for residents of New York City). Calculations factor in the 3.8% tax on unearned income under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as applicable. A portion of the Fund’s distributions may be subject to tax; distributions may also increase an investor’s exposure to the alternative minimum tax. Capital gains distributions are taxable as capital gains. Tax treatments of the Fund’s distributions and capital gains may vary by state; investors should consult a tax advisor to determine if the Fund is appropriate for them. Each result is compounded semiannually and annualized. Falling share prices artificially increase yields. This Report must be preceded or accompanied by a Fund prospectus.

Investments in “tobacco bonds,” which are backed by the proceeds a state or territory receives from the 1998 national litigation settlement with tobacco manufacturers, may be vulnerable to economic and/or legislative events that affect issuers in a particular municipal market sector. Annual payments by MSA-participating manufacturers, for example, hinge on many factors, including annual domestic cigarette shipments, inflation and the relative market share of non-participating manufacturers. To date, we believe consumption figures remain within an acceptable range of the assumptions used to structure MSA bonds. Future MSA payments could be reduced if consumption were to fall more rapidly than originally forecast.

The ICE BofA Merrill Lynch AAA Municipal Securities index is the AAA subset of the ICE BofA Merrill Lynch US Municipal Securities Index, which tracks the performance of dollar-denominated, investment- grade, tax-exempt debt issued by U.S. states and territories and their political subdivisions; index constituents are weighted based on capitalization, and accrued interest is calculated assuming next-day settlement.

Fund Expenses

Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and/or contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended December 31, 2018.

Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During 6 Months Ended December 31, 2018” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class 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 the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

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

1. Organization

Oppenheimer Rochester Fund Municipals (the “Fund”) is a diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”), as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek tax-free income. The Fund’s investment adviser is OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Manager”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Manager has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI.

The Fund offers Class A, Class C and Class Y shares, and previously offered Class B shares for new purchase through June 29, 2012. Subsequent to that date, no new purchases of Class B shares were permitted. Reinvestment of dividend and/or capital gain distributions and exchanges of Class B shares into and from other Oppenheimer funds were permitted through May 31, 2018. Effective June 1, 2018 (the “Conversion Date”), all Class B shares converted to Class A shares. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end sales charge. Class C shares are sold, and Class B shares were sold, without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”). Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors or intermediaries without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the intermediaries may impose charges on their accountholders who beneficially own Class Y shares. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A and C shares have, and Class B shares had, separate distribution and/or service plans under which they pay, and Class B shares paid, fees. Class Y shares do not pay such fees. Previously issued Class B shares automatically converted to Class A shares 72 months after the date of purchase.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed in the Fund’s preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Security Valuation. All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 3.

Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may

 

48       OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


    

    

 

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

differ from U.S. GAAP, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as determined necessary by the Manager.

Investment Income. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.

Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdraft at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 0.35%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.

Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.

Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former Trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remains open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends. The Fund has analyzed its tax positions for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, including open tax years, and does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Fund’s financial statements.

The tax components of capital shown in the following table represent distribution requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses the Fund may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes.

1. At period end, the Fund had $549,945,063 of net capital loss carryforward available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, and thereby reduce future taxable gain distributions.

2. During the reporting period, the Fund did not utilize any capital loss carryforward.

3. During the previous reporting period, the Fund utilized $30,827,422 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.

Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax requirements, which may differ from the character of net investment income or net realized gains presented in those financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.

The tax character of distributions paid during the reporting periods:

The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes at period end are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP

 

50      OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


    

    

 

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

New Accounting Pronouncements. In March 2017, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), ASU 2017-08. This provides guidance related to the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Manager has evaluated the impacts of these changes on the financial statements and there are no material impacts.

During August 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued Final Rule Release No. 33-10532 (the “Rule”), Disclosure Update and Simplification. The rule amends certain financial statement disclosure requirements to conform to U.S. GAAP. The amendments to Rule 6-04.17 of Regulation S-X (balance sheet) remove the requirement to separately state the book basis components of net assets: undistributed (over-distribution of) net investment income (“UNII”), accumulated undistributed net realized gains (losses), and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) at the balance sheet date. Instead, consistent with U.S. GAAP, funds will be required to disclose total distributable earnings. The amendments to Rule 6-09 of Regulation S-X (statement of changes in net assets) remove the requirement to separately state the sources of distributions paid. Instead, consistent with U.S. GAAP, funds will be required to disclose the total amount of distributions paid, except that any tax return of capital must be separately disclosed. The amendments also remove the requirement to parenthetically state the book basis amount of UNII on the statement of changes in net assets. The requirements of the Rule are effective November 5, 2018, and the Funds’ Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the current reporting period have been modified accordingly. In addition, certain amounts within each Fund’s Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the prior fiscal period have been modified to conform to the Rule.

 

 

3. Securities Valuation

The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time, on each day the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange” or “NYSE”) is open for trading, except in the case of a scheduled early closing of the Exchange, in which case the Fund will calculate net asset value of the shares as of the scheduled early closing time of the Exchange.

The Fund’s Board has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Fund’s securities and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Manager. The Manager has established a Valuation Committee which is responsible for determining a fair valuation for any security for which market quotations are not readily available. The Valuation Committee’s fair valuation determinations are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at least quarterly or more frequently, if necessary.

3. Securities Valuation (Continued)

Valuation Methods and Inputs

Securities are valued primarily using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied by third party pricing services or broker-dealers.

The following methodologies are used to determine the market value or the fair value of the types of securities described below:

Equity securities traded on a securities exchange (including exchange-traded derivatives other than futures and futures options) are valued based on the official closing price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. If the official closing price is unavailable, the security is valued at the last sale price on the principal exchange on which it is traded, or if no sales occurred, the security is valued at the mean between the quoted bid and asked prices. Over-the-counter equity securities are valued at the last published sale price, or if no sales occurred, at the mean between the quoted bid and asked prices. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the time when the Fund’s assets are valued.

Corporate and government debt securities (of U.S. or foreign issuers) and municipal debt securities, short-term notes, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and asset-backed securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices utilizing evaluated prices obtained from third party pricing services or broker-dealers who may use matrix pricing methods to determine the evaluated prices. Pricing services generally price debt securities assuming orderly transactions of an institutional “round lot” size, but some trades may occur in smaller, “odd lot” sizes, sometimes at lower prices than institutional round lot trades. Standard inputs generally considered by third-party pricing vendors include reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations, benchmark yields, issuer spreads on comparable securities, the credit quality, yield, maturity, as well as other appropriate factors.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or when a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security, are fair valued either (i) by a standardized fair valuation methodology applicable to the security type or the significant event as previously approved by the Valuation Committee and the Fund’s Board or (ii) as determined in good faith by the Manager’s Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee considers all relevant facts that are reasonably available, through either public information or information available to the Manager, when determining the fair value of a security. Those standardized fair valuation methodologies include, but are not limited to, valuing securities at the last sale price or initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be further adjusted for any discounts related to security-specific resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities nor can it be assured that the Fund can obtain the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the security.

 

52      OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


    

    

 

 

3. Securities Valuation (Continued)

To assess the continuing appropriateness of security valuations, the Manager regularly compares prior day prices and sale prices to the current day prices and challenges those prices exceeding certain tolerance levels with the third party pricing service or broker source. For those securities valued by fair valuations, whether through a standardized fair valuation methodology or a fair valuation determination, the Valuation Committee reviews and affirms the reasonableness of the valuations based on such methodologies and fair valuation determinations on a regular basis after considering all relevant information that is reasonably available.

Classifications

Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Various data inputs may be used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end.

These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:

1) Level 1-unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)

2) Level 2-inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)

3) Level 3-significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).

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

The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities at period end based on valuation input level:

Investments and Risks

Inverse Floating Rate Securities. The Fund invests in inverse floating rate securities that pay interest at a rate that varies inversely with short-term interest rates. Because inverse floating rate securities are leveraged instruments, the value of an inverse floating rate security will change more significantly in response to changes in interest rates and other market fluctuations than the market value of a conventional fixed-rate municipal security of similar maturity and credit quality, including the municipal bond underlying an inverse floating rate security.

An inverse floating rate security is created as part of a financial transaction referred to as a “tender option bond” transaction. In most cases, in a tender option bond transaction the Fund sells a fixed-rate municipal bond (the “underlying municipal bond”) to a trust (the “Trust”). The Trust then issues and sells short-term floating rate securities with a fixed principal amount representing a senior interest in the underlying municipal bond to third parties and a residual, subordinate interest in the underlying municipal bond (referred to as an “inverse floating rate security”) to the Fund. The interest rate on the short-term floating rate securities resets periodically, usually weekly, to a prevailing market rate and holders of these securities are granted the option to tender their securities back to the Trust for repurchase at their principal amount plus accrued interest thereon (the “purchase price”) periodically, usually daily or weekly. A remarketing agent for the Trust is required to attempt to re-sell any tendered short-term floating rate securities to new investors for the purchase price. If the remarketing agent is unable to successfully re-sell the tendered short-term floating rate securities, a liquidity provider to the Trust must contribute cash to the Trust to ensure that the tendering holders receive the purchase price of their securities on the repurchase date.

Because holders of the short-term floating rate securities are granted the right to tender their securities to the Trust for repurchase at frequent intervals for the purchase price, with such payment effectively guaranteed by the liquidity provider, the securities generally bear short-term rates of interest commensurate with money market instruments. When interest is paid on the underlying municipal bond to the Trust, such proceeds are first used to pay the Trust’s administrative expenses and accrued interest to holders of the short-term floating rate securities, with any remaining amounts being paid to the Fund, as the holder of the inverse floating rate security. Accordingly, the amount of such interest on the underlying municipal bond paid to the Fund is inversely related to the rate of interest on the short-term floating rate securities. Additionally, because the principal amount of the short-term floating rate securities is fixed and is not adjusted in response to changes in the market value of the underlying municipal bond, any change in the market value of the underlying municipal bond is reflected entirely in a change to the value of the inverse floating rate security.

Typically, the terms of an inverse floating rate security grant certain rights to the Fund, as holder. For example, the Fund typically has the right upon request to require that the Trust compel a tender of the short-term floating rate securities to facilitate the Fund’s acquisition

 

54      OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


    

    

 

 

4. Investments and Risks (Continued)

of the underlying municipal bond. Following such a request, the Fund pays the Trust the purchase price of the short-term floating rate securities and a specified portion of any market value gain on the underlying municipal bond since its deposit into the Trust, which the Trust uses to redeem the short-term floating rate securities. The Trust then distributes the underlying municipal bond to the Fund. Through the exercise of this right, the Fund can voluntarily terminate or “collapse” the Trust, terminate its investment in the related inverse floating rate security and obtain the underlying municipal bond. Additionally, the Fund also typically has the right to exchange with the Trust (i) a principal amount of short-term floating rate securities held by the Fund for a corresponding additional principal amount of the inverse floating rate security or (ii) a principal amount of the inverse floating rate security held by the Fund for a corresponding additional principal amount of short-term floating rate securities (which are typically then sold to other investors). Through the exercise of this right, the Fund may increase (or decrease) the principal amount of short-term floating rate securities outstanding, thereby increasing (or decreasing) the amount of leverage provided by the short-term floating rate securities to the Fund’s investment exposure to the underlying municipal bond.

The Fund’s investments in inverse floating rate securities involve certain risks. As short-term interest rates rise, an inverse floating rate security produces less current income (and, in extreme cases, may pay no income) and as short-term interest rates fall, an inverse floating rate security produces more current income. Thus, if short-term interest rates rise after the issuance of the inverse floating rate security, any yield advantage is reduced or eliminated. All inverse floating rate securities entail some degree of leverage represented by the outstanding principal amount of the related short-term floating rate securities, relative to the par value of the underlying municipal bond. The value of, and income earned on, an inverse floating rate security that has a higher degree of leverage will fluctuate more significantly in response to changes in interest rates and to changes in the market value of the related underlying municipal bond than that of an inverse floating rate security with a lower degree of leverage, and is more likely to be eliminated entirely under adverse market conditions. Changes in the value of an inverse floating rate security will also be more significant than changes in the market value of the related underlying municipal bond because the leverage provided by the related short-term floating rate securities increases the sensitivity of an inverse floating rate security to changes in interest rates and to the market value of the underlying municipal bond. An inverse floating rate security can be expected to underperform fixed-rate municipal bonds when the difference between long-term and short-term interest rates is decreasing (or is already small) or when long-term interest rates are rising, but can be expected to outperform fixed-rate municipal bonds when the difference between long-term and short-term interest rates is increasing (or is already large) or when long-term interest rates are falling. Additionally, a tender option bond transaction typically provides for the automatic termination or “collapse” of a Trust upon the occurrence of certain adverse events, usually referred to as “mandatory tender events” or “tender option termination events.” These events may include, among others, a credit ratings downgrade of the underlying municipal bond below a specified level, a decrease in the market value of the underlying municipal bond below a specified amount, a bankruptcy of the liquidity provider or the inability of the remarketing

agent to re-sell to new investors short-term floating rate securities that have been tendered for repurchase by holders thereof. Following the occurrence of such an event, the underlying municipal bond is generally sold for current market value and the proceeds distributed to holders of the short-term floating rate securities and inverse floating rate security, with the holder of the inverse floating rate security (the Fund) generally receiving the proceeds of such sale only after the holders of the short-term floating rate securities have received proceeds equal to the purchase price of their securities (and the liquidity provider is generally required to contribute cash to the Trust only in an amount sufficient to ensure that the holders of the short-term floating rate securities receive the purchase price of their securities in connection with such termination of the Trust). Following the occurrence of such events, the Fund could potentially lose the entire amount of its investment in the inverse floating rate security.

Finally, the Fund may enter into shortfall/reimbursement agreements with the liquidity provider of certain tender option bond transactions in connection with certain inverse floating rate securities held by the Fund. These agreements commit the Fund to reimburse the liquidity provider to the extent that the liquidity provider must provide cash to a Trust, including following the termination of a Trust resulting from the occurrence of a “mandatory tender event.” In connection with the occurrence of such an event and the termination of the Trust triggered thereby, the shortfall/reimbursement agreement will make the Fund liable for the amount of the negative difference, if any, between the liquidation value of the underlying municipal bond and the purchase price of the short-term floating rate securities issued by the Trust. Under the standard terms of a tender option bond transaction, absent such a shortfall/ reimbursement agreement, the Fund, as holder of the inverse floating rate security, would not be required to make such a reimbursement payment to the liquidity provider. The Manager monitors the Fund’s potential exposure with respect to these agreements on a daily basis and intends to take action to terminate the Fund’s investment in related inverse floating rate securities, if it deems it appropriate to do so. At period end, the Fund’s maximum exposure under such agreements is estimated at $105,085,000.

When the Fund creates an inverse floating rate security in a tender option bond transaction by selling an underlying municipal bond to a Trust, the transaction is considered a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. As a result of such accounting treatment, the Fund includes the underlying municipal bond on its Statement of Investments and as an asset on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities (but does not separately include the related inverse floating rate security on either). The Fund also includes a liability on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities equal to the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest on the related short-term floating rate securities issued by the Trust. Interest on the underlying municipal bond is recorded as investment income on the Fund’s Statement of Operations, while interest payable on the related short-term floating rate securities is recorded as interest expense. At period end, municipal bond holdings with a value of $879,567,979 shown on the Fund’s Statement of Investments are held by such Trusts and serve as the underlying municipal bonds for the related $502,730,000 in short-term floating rate securities issued and outstanding at that date.

1. For a list of abbreviations used in the Inverse Floater table see the Portfolio Abbreviations table at the end of the Statement of Investments.

2. Represents the current interest rate for the inverse floating rate security.

3. Represents an inverse floating rate security that is subject to a shortfall/reimbursement agreement.

The Fund may also purchase an inverse floating rate security created as part of a tender option bond transaction not initiated by the Fund when a third party, such as a municipal issuer or financial institution, transfers an underlying municipal bond to a Trust. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund includes the inverse floating rate security related to such transaction on its Statement of Investments and as an asset on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and interest on the security is recorded as investment income on the Fund’s Statement of Operations.

The Fund may invest in inverse floating rate securities with any degree of leverage (as measured by the outstanding principal amount of related short-term floating rate securities). However, the Fund may only expose up to 20% of its total assets to the effects of leverage from its investments in inverse floating rate securities. This limitation is measured by comparing the aggregate principal amount of the short-term floating rate securities that are related to the inverse floating rate securities held by the Fund to the total assets of the Fund.

4. Investments and Risks (Continued)

The Fund’s exposure to the effects of leverage from its investments in inverse floating rate securities amounts to $502,730,000 or 8.93% of its total assets at period end.

Securities on a When-Issued or Delayed Delivery Basis. The Fund may purchase securities on a “when-issued” basis, and may purchase or sell securities on a “delayed delivery” basis. “When-issued” or “delayed delivery” refers to securities whose terms and indenture are available and for which a market exists, but which are not available for immediate delivery. Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by the Fund on a when-issued basis normally takes place within six months and possibly as long as two years or more after the trade date. During this period, such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The purchase of securities on a when-issued basis may increase the volatility of the Fund’s net asset value to the extent the Fund executes such transactions while remaining substantially fully invested. When the Fund engages in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions, it relies on the buyer or seller, as the case may be, to complete the transaction. Their failure to do so may cause the Fund to lose the opportunity to obtain or dispose of the security at a price and yield it considers advantageous. The Fund may also sell securities that it purchased on a when-issued basis or forward commitment prior to settlement of the original purchase.

At period end, the Fund had sold securities issued on a delayed delivery basis as follows:

     

When-Issued or

Delayed Delivery

Basis Transactions

 
Sold securities      $7,469,906  

Equity Security Risk. Stocks and other equity securities fluctuate in price. The value of the Fund’s portfolio may be affected by changes in the equity markets generally. Equity markets may experience significant short-term volatility and may fall sharply at times. Different markets may behave differently from each other and U.S. equity markets may move in the opposite direction from one or more foreign stock markets. Adverse events in any part of the equity or fixed-income markets may have unexpected negative effects on other market segments.

The prices of individual equity securities generally do not all move in the same direction at the same time and a variety of factors can affect the price of a particular company’s securities. These factors may include, but are not limited to, poor earnings reports, a loss of customers, litigation against the company, general unfavorable performance of the company’s sector or industry, or changes in government regulations affecting the company or its industry.

Credit Risk. The Fund invests in high-yield, non-investment-grade bonds, which may be subject to a greater degree of credit risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest or principal payments or both as they become due. The Fund may acquire securities that have missed an interest payment, and is not obligated to dispose of securities whose issuers or underlying obligors subsequently miss an interest and/or principal.

In June 2016, Congress passed the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic

4. Investments and Risks (Continued)

Stability Act (“PROMESA”). PROMESA established a federally-appointed fiscal oversight board (the “Oversight Board”) to oversee Puerto Rico’s financial operations and allows the Oversight Board to file cases on behalf of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico or one of its instrumentalities to restructure debt and other obligations of the relevant entity in a “Title III” proceeding. Title III incorporates many provisions of the federal Bankruptcy Code for U.S. territories, and incorporates legal mechanisms for a litigation stay and restructuring of pension and debt obligations, among other provisions. In early May 2017, Title III petitions were filed for the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation (“COFINA”), two of the largest issuers of Puerto Rico debt. Title III petitions for Puerto Rico Highways & Transportation Authority (“PRHTA”) and Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (“PREPA”) were subsequently filed in mid-May and early July, respectively. Title III petitions for additional Puerto Rican instrumentalities may be filed. These restructuring proceedings create uncertainty as to the treatment of claims of varying degrees of seniority and the levels and priorities of payment from the affected entities.

Information concerning securities not accruing interest at period end is as follows:

Cost      $852,996,751  
Market Value      $414,340,657  
Market Value as % of Net Assets      8.40%  

Concentration Risk. The Fund invests a large percentage of its total assets in obligations of issuers within its respective state and U.S. territories. Risks may arise from geographic concentration in any state, commonwealth or territory, such as Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam or the Northern Mariana Islands. Certain economic, regulatory or political developments occurring in the state, commonwealth or territory such as ongoing developments in Puerto Rico may impair the ability of certain issuers of municipal securities to pay principal and interest on their obligations.

 

 

5. Market Risk Factors

The Fund’s investments in securities and/or financial derivatives may expose the Fund to various market risk factors:

Commodity Risk. Commodity risk relates to the change in value of commodities or commodity indexes as they relate to increases or decreases in the commodities market. Commodities are physical assets that have tangible properties. Examples of these types of assets are crude oil, heating oil, metals, livestock, and agricultural products.

Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer of debt to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield debt securities are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality securities.

Equity Risk. Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the

 

60      OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


    

 

 

5. Market Risk Factors (Continued)

U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.

Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.

Volatility Risk. Volatility risk refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.

8. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:

 Fee Schedule                                 
 Up to $100 million      0.54
 Next $150 million      0.52  
 Next $1.75 billion      0.47  
 Next $3 billion      0.46  
 Next $3 billion      0.45  
 Next $6 billion      0.44  
 Over $14 billion      0.42  

The Fund’s effective management fee for the reporting period was 0.47% of average annual net assets before any applicable waivers.

Sub-Adviser Fees. The Manager has retained the Sub-Adviser to provide the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Manager pays the Sub-Adviser an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the investment management fee collected by the Manager from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any investment management fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Adviser is paid by the Manager, not by the Fund.

Transfer Agent Fees. OFI Global (the “Transfer Agent”) serves as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays the Transfer Agent a fee based on annual net assets, which shall be calculated after any applicable fee waivers. Fees incurred and average net assets for each class with respect to these services are detailed in the Statement of Operations and Financial Highlights, respectively.

8. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued)

Sub-Transfer Agent Fees. The Transfer Agent has retained Shareholder Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OFI (the “Sub-Transfer Agent”), to provide the day-to-day transfer agent and shareholder servicing of the Fund. Under the Sub-Transfer Agency Agreement, the Transfer Agent pays the Sub-Transfer Agent an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the transfer agent fee collected by the Transfer Agent from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any applicable fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Transfer Agent is paid by the Transfer Agent, not by the Fund.

Trustees’ Compensation. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan (the “Plan”) for the Fund’s Independent Trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees paid to each Trustee during their period of service. The Plan was frozen with respect to adding new participants effective December 31, 2006 (the “Freeze Date”) and existing Plan Participants as of the Freeze Date will continue to receive accrued benefits under the Plan. Active Independent Trustees as of the Freeze Date have each elected a distribution method with respect to their benefits under the Plan.

During the reporting period, the Fund’s projected benefit obligations, payments to retired Trustees and accumulated liability were as follows:

Projected Benefit Obligations Increased    $ 9,366  
Payments Made to Retired Trustees                          171,436  
Accumulated Liability as of December 31, 2018                    399,483  

The Fund’s Board of Trustees (“Board”) has adopted a compensation deferral plan for Independent Trustees that enables Trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of Trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.

Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor’s Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Fund’s principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of the Fund’s classes of shares.

Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan (the “Plan”) for Class A shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, the Fund reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for services provided to accounts

8. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued)

that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.

Distribution and Service Plans for Class B and Class C Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (the “Plans”) for Class C shares, and had previously adopted a similar plan for Class B shares, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act to compensate the Distributor for distributing those share classes, maintaining accounts and providing shareholder services. Under the Plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class C shares’ daily net assets. The Fund paid the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class B shares prior to their Conversion Date. The Fund also pays a service fee under the Plans at an annual rate of 0.25% of daily net assets and previously paid this fee for Class B prior to their Conversion Date. The Plans continue in effect from year to year only if the Fund’s Board of Trustees votes annually to approve their continuance at an in person meeting called for that purpose. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plans are detailed in the Statement of Operations.

Sales Charges. Front-end sales charges and CDSC do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. The sales charges retained by the Distributor from the sale of shares and the CDSC retained by the Distributor on the redemption of shares is shown in the following table for the period indicated.

9. Borrowings and Other Financing

Borrowings. The Fund can borrow money from banks in amounts up to one third of its total assets (including the amount borrowed) less all liabilities and indebtedness other than borrowings (meaning that the value of those assets must be at least 300% of the amount borrowed). The Fund can use those borrowings for investment-related purposes such as purchasing portfolio securities. The Fund also may borrow to meet redemption obligations or for temporary and emergency purposes. When the Fund invests borrowed money in portfolio

securities, it is using a speculative investment technique known as leverage and changes in the value of the Fund’s investments will have a larger effect on its share price than if it did not borrow because of the effect of leverage.

The Fund can also use the borrowings for other investment-related purposes, including in connection with the Fund’s inverse floater investments as discussed in Note 4. The Fund may use the borrowings to reduce the leverage amount of, or unwind or “collapse” trusts that issued “inverse floaters” owned by the Fund, or in circumstances in which the Fund has entered into a shortfall and forbearance agreement with the sponsor of the inverse floater trust to meet the Fund’s obligation to reimburse the sponsor of the inverse floater for the difference between the liquidation value of the underlying bond and the amount due to holders of the short-term floating rate notes issued by the Trust. See the discussion in Note 4 (Inverse Floating Rate Securities) for additional information.

The Fund will pay interest and may pay other fees in connection with loans. If the Fund does borrow, it will be subject to greater expenses than funds that do not borrow. The interest on borrowed money and the other fees incurred in conjunction with loans are an expense that might reduce the Fund’s yield and return. Expenses incurred by the Fund with respect to interest on borrowings and commitment fees are disclosed separately or as other expenses on the Statement of Operations.

The Fund entered into a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Agreement”) with conduit lenders and Citibank N.A. which enables it to participate with certain other Oppenheimer funds in a committed, secured borrowing facility that permits borrowings of up to $2.5 billion, collectively, by the Oppenheimer Rochester Funds. To secure the loan, the Fund pledges investment securities in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover these borrowings are noted in the Statement of Investments. Interest is charged to the Fund, based on its borrowings, at current commercial paper issuance rates (2.5936% at period end). The Fund pays additional fees monthly to its lender on its outstanding borrowings to manage and administer the facility and is allocated its pro-rata share of an annual structuring fee and ongoing commitment fees both of which are based on the total facility size. Total fees and interest that are included in expenses on the Fund’s Statement of Operations related to its participation in the borrowing facility during the reporting period equal 0.12% of the Fund’s average net assets on an annualized basis. The Fund has the right to prepay such loans and terminate its participation in the conduit loan facility at any time upon prior notice.

At period end, the Fund had borrowings outstanding at an interest rate of 2.5936%.

Details of the borrowings for the reporting period are as follows:

Average Daily Loan Balance    $                     75,933,151  
Average Daily Interest Rate      2.121
Fees Paid    $ 4,044,168  
Interest Paid    $ 1,425,654  

Reverse Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreements. A reverse repurchase agreement is the sale of one or more securities to a

9. Borrowings and Other Financing (Continued)

counterparty at an agreed-upon purchase price with the simultaneous agreement to repurchase those securities on a future date at a higher repurchase price. The repurchase price represents the repayment of the purchase price and interest accrued thereon over the term of the repurchase agreement. The cash received by the Fund in connection with a reverse repurchase agreement may be used for investment-related purposes such as purchasing portfolio securities or for other purposes such as those described in the preceding “Borrowings” note.

The Fund entered into a Committed Repurchase Transaction Facility (the “Facility”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “counterparty”) which enables it to participate with certain other Oppenheimer funds in a committed reverse repurchase agreement facility that permits aggregate outstanding reverse repurchase agreements of up to $750 million, collectively. Interest is charged to the Fund on the purchase price of outstanding reverse repurchase agreements at current LIBOR rates plus an applicable spread. The Fund is also allocated its pro-rata share of an annual structuring fee based on the total Facility size and ongoing commitment fees based on the total unused amount of the Facility. The Fund retains the economic exposure to fluctuations in the value of securities subject to reverse repurchase agreements under the Facility and therefore these transactions are considered secured borrowings for financial reporting purposes. The Fund also continues to receive the economic benefit of interest payments received on securities subject to reverse repurchase agreements, in the form of a direct payment from the counterparty. These payments are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations. Total fees and interest related to the Fund’s participation in the Facility during the reporting period are included in expenses on the Fund’s Statement of Operations and equal 0.03% of the Fund’s average net assets on an annualized basis.

The securities subject to reverse repurchase agreements under the Facility are valued on a daily basis. To the extent this value, after adjusting for certain margin requirements of the Facility, exceeds the cash proceeds received, the Fund may request the counterparty to return securities equal in margin value to this excess. To the extent that the cash proceeds received exceed the margin value of the securities subject to the transaction, the counterparty may request additional securities from the Fund. The Fund has the right to declare each Wednesday as the repurchase date for any outstanding reverse repurchase agreement upon delivery of advanced notification and may also recall any security subject to such a transaction by substituting eligible securities of equal or greater margin value according to the Facility’s terms.

The Fund executed no transactions under the Facility during the reporting period.

Details of reverse repurchase agreement transactions for the reporting period are as follows:

10. Pending Acquisition (Continued)

whereby Invesco Ltd. (“Invesco”), a global investment management company, will acquire the Sub-Adviser (the “Transaction”). In connection with the Transaction, on January 11, 2019, the Fund’s Board unanimously approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”), which provides for the transfer of the assets and liabilities of the Fund to a corresponding, newly formed fund (the “Acquiring Fund”) in the Invesco family of funds (the “Reorganization”) in exchange for shares of the corresponding Acquiring Fund of equal value to the value of the shares of the Fund as of the close of business on the closing date. Although the Acquiring Fund will be managed by Invesco Advisers, Inc., the Acquiring Fund will, as of the closing date, have the same investment objective and substantially similar principal investment strategies and risks as the Fund. After the Reorganization, Invesco Advisers, Inc. will be the investment adviser to the Acquiring Fund, and the Fund will be liquidated and dissolved under applicable law and terminate its registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Reorganization is expected to be a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The Reorganization is subject to the approval of shareholders of the Fund. Shareholders of record of the Fund on January 14, 2019 will be entitled to vote on the Reorganization and will receive a combined prospectus and proxy statement describing the Reorganization, the shareholder meeting, and a discussion of the factors the Fund’s Board considered in approving the Agreement. The combined prospectus and proxy statement is expected to be distributed to shareholders of record on or about February 28, 2019. The anticipated date of the shareholder meeting is on or about April 12, 2019.

If shareholders approve the Agreement and certain other closing conditions are satisfied or waived, the Reorganization is expected to close during the second quarter of 2019, or as soon as practicable thereafter. This is subject to change.

 

 

11. Subsequent Event

On February 4, 2019, the United States District Court for the District of Puerto Rico confirmed the Third Amended Title III Plan of Adjustment of Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation (“COFINA”). As a result, during February 2019 the Fund will receive a combination of newly issued COFINA bonds and cash in exchange for legacy COFINA bonds.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees

Oppenheimer Rochester Fund Municipals:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

    We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Oppenheimer Rochester Fund Municipals (the “Fund”), including the statement of investments, as of December 31, 2018, the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two year period then ended, and the related notes (collectively, the “financial statements”) and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five year period then ended. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2018, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

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

    We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Such procedures also included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2018, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

KPMG LLP

    We have not been able to determine the specific year that we began serving as the auditor of one or more Oppenheimer Funds investment companies, however we are aware that we have served as the auditor of one or more Oppenheimer Funds investment companies since at least 1969.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION Unaudited

 

 

In early 2019, if applicable, shareholders of record received information regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 2018.

None of the dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 are eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction. 98.16% of the dividends were derived from interest on municipal bonds and are not subject to federal income taxes. For the state income tax reporting purposes of non-New York State shareholders, the distribution breaks down as follows: New York State (90.8%), Puerto Rico (8.0%), Guam (0.2%), Virgin Islands (0.3%); Northern Mariana Isles (0.7%).

Dividends, if any, paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 which are not designated as capital gain distributions, may be eligible for lower individual income tax rates to the extent that the Fund has received qualified dividend income as stipulated by recent tax legislation. In early 2019, shareholders of record received information regarding the percentage of distributions that are eligible for lower individual income tax rates. The amount will be the maximum amount allowed.

During 2018, 9.96% of this tax-exempt income was derived from “private activity bonds”. These are municipal bonds used to finance privately operated facilities. The interest on these bonds is not taxable for most investors. For the few investors subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax, the interest from these bonds is considered a preference item.

The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S INVESTMENT ADVISORY

AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Unaudited

 

 

The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”) (“OFI Global” and “OFI” together the “Managers”) and OFI Global has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI whereby OFI provides investment sub-advisory services to the Fund (collectively, the “Agreements”). Each year, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, is required to determine whether to approve the terms of the Agreements and the renewal thereof. The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, requires that the Board request and evaluate, and that the Managers provide, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The Board employs an independent consultant to prepare a report that provides information, including comparative information that the Board requests for that purpose. In addition to in-person meetings focused on this evaluation, the Board receives information throughout the year regarding Fund services, fees, expenses and performance.

The Managers and the independent consultant provided information to the Board on the following factors: (i) the nature, quality and extent of the Managers’ services, (ii) the comparative investment performance of the Fund and the Managers, (iii) the fees and expenses of the Fund, including comparative fee and expense information, (iv) the profitability of the Managers and their affiliates, including an analysis of the cost of providing services, (v) whether economies of scale are realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for Fund investors and (vi) other benefits to the Managers from their relationship with the Fund. The Board was aware that there are alternatives to retaining the Managers.

Outlined below is a summary of the principal information considered by the Board as well as the Board’s conclusions.

Nature, Quality and Extent of Services. The Board considered information about the nature, quality and extent of the services provided to the Fund and information regarding the Managers’ key personnel who provide such services. The Managers’ duties include providing the Fund with the services of the Sub-Adviser’s portfolio managers and investment team, who provide research, analysis and other advisory services in regard to the Fund’s investments; and securities trading services. OFI Global is responsible for oversight of third-party service providers; monitoring compliance with applicable Fund policies and procedures and adherence to the Fund’s investment restrictions; risk management; and oversight of the Sub-Adviser. OFI Global is also responsible for providing certain administrative services to the Fund. Those services include providing and supervising all administrative and clerical personnel who are necessary in order to provide effective corporate administration for the Fund; compiling and maintaining records with respect to the Fund’s operations; preparing and filing reports required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; preparing periodic reports regarding the operations of the Fund for its shareholders; preparing proxy materials for shareholder meetings; and preparing the registration statements required by federal and state securities laws for the sale of the Fund’s shares. OFI Global also provides the Fund with office space, facilities and equipment.

 

70       OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


    

    

 

The Board also considered the quality of the services provided and the quality of the Managers’ resources that are available to the Fund. The Board took account of the fact that the Sub-Adviser has over fifty years of experience as an investment adviser and that its assets under management rank it among the top mutual fund managers in the United States. The Board evaluated the Managers’ advisory, administrative, accounting, legal, compliance and risk management services, among other services, and information the Board has received regarding the experience and professional qualifications of the Managers’ key personnel and the size and functions of their staff. In its evaluation of the quality of the portfolio management services provided, the Board considered the experience of Scott Cottier, Troy Willis, Mark DeMitry, Michael Camarella, Charles Pulire and Elizabeth Mossow, the portfolio managers for the Fund, and the Sub-Adviser’s investment team and analysts. The Board members also considered the totality of their experiences with the Managers as directors or trustees of the Fund and other funds advised by the Managers. The Board considered information regarding the quality of services provided by affiliates of the Managers, which the Board members have become knowledgeable about through their experiences with the Managers and in connection with the review or renewal of the Fund’s service agreements or service providers. The Board concluded, in light of the Managers’ experience, reputation, personnel, operations and resources that the Fund benefits from the services provided under the Agreements.

Investment Performance of the Managers and the Fund. Throughout the year, the Managers provided information on the investment performance of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, including comparative performance information. The Board also reviewed information, prepared by the Managers and by the independent consultant, comparing the Fund’s historical performance to relevant benchmarks or market indices and to the performance of other retail funds in the muni New York long category. The Board noted that the Fund’s one-year performance was below its category median although its three-year, five-year and ten-year performance was better than its category median.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund. The Board reviewed the fees paid to the Adviser and the other expenses borne by the Fund. The Board noted that the Adviser, not the Fund, pays the Sub-Adviser’s fee under the sub-advisory agreement. The independent consultant provided comparative data in regard to the fees and expenses of the Fund and other retail front-end load muni New York long funds with comparable asset levels and distribution features. The Board noted that the Fund’s contractual management fee was lower than its peer group and category median. The Board also noted that the Fund’s total expenses were higher than its peer group and category median.

Economies of Scale and Profits Realized by the Managers. The Board considered information regarding the Managers’ costs in serving as the Fund’s investment adviser and sub-adviser, including the costs associated with the personnel and systems necessary to manage the Fund, and information regarding the Managers’ profitability from their relationship with the Fund. The Board also considered that the Managers must be able to pay and retain experienced professional personnel at competitive rates to provide quality services to the Fund. The Board reviewed whether the Managers may realize economies of scale in managing and supporting the Fund. The Board noted that the Fund currently

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S INVESTMENT ADVISORY

AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Unaudited / Continued

has management fee breakpoints, which are intended to share with Fund shareholders economies of scale that may exist as the Fund’s assets grow.

Other Benefits to the Managers. In addition to considering the profits realized by the Managers, the Board considered information that was provided regarding the direct and indirect benefits the Managers receive as a result of their relationship with the Fund, including compensation paid to the Managers’ affiliates.

Conclusions. These factors were also considered by the independent Trustees meeting separately from the full Board, assisted by experienced counsel to the Fund and to the independent Trustees. Fund counsel and the independent Trustees’ counsel are independent of the Managers within the meaning and intent of the Securities and Exchange Commission Rules.

Based on its review of the information it received and its evaluations described above, the Board, including a majority of the independent Trustees, decided to continue the Agreements through September 30, 2019. In arriving at its decision, the Board did not identify any factor or factors as being more important than others, but considered all of the above information, and considered the terms and conditions of the Agreements, including the management fees, in light of all the surrounding circumstances.

 

72       OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


PORTFOLIO PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND GUIDELINES;

UPDATES TO STATEMENT OF INVESTMENTS Unaudited

 

 

The Fund has adopted Portfolio Proxy Voting Policies and Guidelines under which the Fund votes proxies relating to securities (“portfolio proxies”) held by the Fund. A description of the Fund’s Portfolio Proxy Voting Policies and Guidelines is available (i) without charge, upon request, by calling the Fund toll-free at 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677), (ii) on the Fund’s website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com, and (iii) on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the Fund is required to file Form N-PX, with its complete proxy voting record for the 12 months ended June 30th, no later than August 31st of each year. The Fund’s voting record is available (i) without charge, upon request, by calling the Fund toll-free at 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677), and (ii) in the Form N-PX filing on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

The Fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first quarter and the third quarter of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Fund’s Form N-Q filings are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Householding—Delivery of Shareholder Documents

This is to inform you about OppenheimerFunds’ “householding” policy. If more than one member of your household maintains an account in a particular fund, OppenheimerFunds will mail only one copy of the fund’s prospectus (or, if available, the fund’s summary prospectus), annual and semiannual report and privacy policy. The consolidation of these mailings, called householding, benefits your fund through reduced mailing expense, and benefits you by reducing the volume of mail you receive from OppenheimerFunds. Householding does not affect the delivery of your account statements.

Please note that we will continue to household these mailings for as long as you remain an OppenheimerFunds shareholder, unless you request otherwise. If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these materials, please call us at 1.800.CALL-OPP (225-5677). You may also notify us in writing or via email. We will begin sending you individual copies of the prospectus (or, if available, the summary prospectus), reports and privacy policy within 30 days of receiving your request to stop householding.

 

73       OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER FUND MUNICIPALS


DISTRIBUTION SOURCES Unaudited

 

 

For any distribution that took place over the last six months of the Fund’s reporting period, the table below details on a per-share basis the percentage of the Fund’s total distribution payment amount that was derived from the following sources: net income, net profit from the sale of securities, and other capital sources. Other capital sources represent a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with “yield” or “income.” You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amounts of these distributions. This information is based upon income and capital gains using generally accepted accounting principles as of the date of each distribution. If the Fund (or an underlying fund in which the Fund invests) invests in real estate investment trusts (REITs) and/or master limited partnerships (MLPs), the percentages attributed to each category are estimated using historical information because the character of the amounts received from the REITs and/or MLPs in which the Fund (or underlying fund) invests is unknown until after the end of the calendar year. Because the Fund is actively managed, the relative amount of the Fund’s total distributions derived from various sources over the calendar year may change. Please note that this information should not be used for tax reporting purposes as the tax character of distributable income may differ from the amounts used for this notification. You will receive IRS tax forms in the first quarter of each calendar year detailing the actual amount of the taxable and non-taxable portion of distributions paid to you during the tax year.

Protection of Information

We do not disclose any non-public personal information (such as names on a customer list) about current or former customers to anyone, except as permitted by law.

Disclosure of Information

Copies of confirmations, account statements and other documents reporting activity in your fund accounts are made available to your financial advisor (as designated by you).

Internet Security and Encryption

In general, the email services provided by our website are encrypted and provide a secure and private means of communication with us. To protect your own privacy, confidential and/ or personal information should only be communicated via email when you are advised that you are using a secure website.

As a security measure, we do not include personal or account information in non-secure emails, and we advise you not to send such information to us in non-secure emails. Instead, you may take advantage of the secure features of our website to encrypt your email correspondence. To do this, you will need to use a browser that supports Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.

 

All transactions conducted via our websites, including redemptions, exchanges and purchases, are secured by the highest encryption standards available. SSL is used to establish a secure connection between your PC and OppenheimerFunds’ server. It transmits information in an encrypted and scrambled format.

 

Encryption is achieved through an electronic scrambling technology that uses a “key” to code and then decode the data. Encryption acts like the cable converter box you may have on your television set. It scrambles data with a secret code so that no one can make sense of it while it is being transmitted. When the data reaches its destination, the same software unscrambles the data.

 

You can exit the secure area by closing your browser or, for added security, you can use the Log Out button before you close your browser.

Other Security Measures

We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your personal account information. Our employees and agents have access to that information only so that they may offer you products or provide services, for example, when responding to your account questions.

How You Can Help

You can also do your part to keep your account information private and to prevent unauthorized transactions. If you obtain a user ID and password for your account, safeguard that information. Strengthening your online credentials–your online security profile–typically your user name, password, and security questions and answers, can be one of your most important lines of defense on the Internet. For additional information on how you can help prevent identity theft, visit https://www. oppenheimerfunds.com/security.
