Investment Objective and Principal Investment Strategies

Each of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Funds seek to maximize current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity by investing exclusively in high quality money market instruments. The Goldman Sachs Prime Obligations Fund and the Goldman Sachs Money Market Fund pursue this investment objective by investing in U.S. government securities, obligations of banks (which may exceed 25% of its assets), commercial paper and other short-term obligations of U.S. companies, states, municipalities and other entities, and repurchase agreements (“repos”). They may also invest in U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of foreign banks, foreign companies and foreign governments. The Goldman Sachs Treasury Obligations Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. Treasury obligations and repos collateralized by U.S. Treasury obligations. The Goldman Sachs Treasury Instruments Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. Treasury obligations, the interest from which is generally exempt from state income taxation. The Goldman Sachs Treasury Solutions Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. Treasury obligations and repos with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York collateralized by U.S. Treasury obligations. The Goldman Sachs Government Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. government securities and repos collateralized by such securities. The Goldman Sachs Federal Instruments Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. government securities, the interest from which is generally exempt from state income taxation.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

The Board of Trustees of the Goldman Sachs Trust approved a change to the fiscal year end of the Financial Square Funds (the “Funds”). Effective September 1, 2020, the Funds’ fiscal year end changed from August 31 to November 30. Below, the Goldman Sachs Money Market Portfolio Management Team discusses the Funds’ performance and positioning for the period from September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 (the “Reporting Period”).

 

Q   What economic and market factors most influenced the money markets as a whole during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, the money markets were most influenced by Federal Reserve (“Fed”) policy and the outlook for the U.S. economy.

 

      The Fed held the targeted federal funds rate in a range of between 0% and 0.25% throughout the Reporting Period. Policymakers also signaled the monetary policy backdrop was likely to remain accommodative and short-term interest rates would likely stay low for the foreseeable future. In addition, Fed officials adopted a flexible form of average inflation targeting wherein they would aim for an inflation rate moderately above 2% following periods when inflation has run persistently below 2%, seeking an average of 2% over time.

 

      Positive news about COVID-19 vaccines benefited the medium-term outlook for U.S. economic activity and growth as well as the labor market. However, it was unclear to what extent stronger economic growth and a smaller output gap would translate to higher price inflation.

 

      In this environment, the yields of money market funds generally remained stable and close to zero. Investments in U.S. money market funds declined during the Reporting Period, dropping from $4.5 trillion in August 2020 to $4.3 trillion in November 2020, according to iMoneyNet. Much of the decrease could be attributed to an improvement in investor risk sentiment. Investors rotated into riskier asset classes as uncertainties surrounding the outcome of the November U.S. election and the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines eased.

 

Q   What key factors were responsible for the performance of the Funds during the Reporting Period?

 

A  

The Funds’ yields remained rather stable during the Reporting Period primarily because of the economic and market factors discussed above. The money market yield curve steepened slightly, as the front, or short-term, end of

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

 

 

the U.S. Treasury curve shifted downward and the intermediate- to longer-term end shifted upward. (Yield curve is a spectrum of interest rates based on maturities of varying lengths. A steepening yield curve is one wherein the differential in yields between longer-term and shorter-term maturities widens; opposite of a flattening yield curve.)

 

      During the Reporting Period, the Funds’ positioning along the money market yield curve and in specific securities was predicated on market expectations that interest rates would remain low and Fed monetary policy would stay accommodative.

 

Q   How did you manage the Funds during the Reporting Period?

 

A   Collectively, the Funds had investments in commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper, U.S. Treasury securities, government agency securities, time deposits, certificates of deposit, floating rate securities, repurchase agreements (“repos”), non-U.S. sovereign debt, municipal securities, variable rate demand notes (“VRDNs”) and other instruments during the Reporting Period.

 

      In our commercial paper strategies (i.e., the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Money Market Fund and the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund), we maintained weighted average maturities in a rather narrow range between 38 and 43 days from the beginning of the Reporting Period to the end of October 2020. In November, we extended the weighted average maturities of the commercial paper strategies to between 48 and 49 days. Among our government repo strategies (i.e., the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund and the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Solutions Fund), the weighted average maturity of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund remained rather stable during the Reporting Period in a range between 48 and 53 days. As for the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund, its weighted average maturity was 53 days when the Reporting Period began. We shortened it to 37 days in September and to 34 days in October. During November, we extended its weighted average maturity to 51 days. Regarding the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Solutions Fund, its weighted average maturity was 46 days at the start of the Reporting Period. We extended it to 53 days in October and to 56 by the end of the Reporting Period. In our government non-repo strategies (i.e., the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund and the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Instruments Fund), we maintained rather stable weighted average maturities of between 44 and 57 days throughout the Reporting Period.

 

      During the Reporting Period overall, our commercial paper strategies focused their investments on U.S. Treasury securities, VRDNs and repos. Our government repo strategies focused their investments on government agency securities, government agency repos, U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. Treasury repos. Our government non-repo strategies focused their investments on U.S. Treasury securities. During the course of the Reporting Period, our commercial paper strategies increased their holdings of VRDNs, while our government repo strategies generally increased their holdings of U.S. Treasury repos.

 

      The weighted average maturity of a money market fund is a measure of its price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Also known as effective maturity, weighted average maturity measures the weighted average of the maturity date of bonds held by the Funds, taking into consideration any available maturity shortening features.

 

Q   How did you manage the Funds’ weighted average life during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, we managed the weighted average life of the Funds at less than 115 days. In our commercial paper strategies, we managed the Funds’ weighted average life in a range between approximately 38 and 49 days. In our government repo strategies, we managed the Funds’ weighted average life in a range between approximately 82 and 113 days. In our government non-repo strategies, we managed the Funds’ weighted average life in a range between approximately 100 and 113 days. The weighted average life of a money market fund is a measure of a money market fund’s price sensitivity to changes in liquidity and/or credit risk.

 

      Under amendments to SEC Rule 2a-7 that became effective in May 2010, the maximum allowable weighted average life of a money market fund is 120 days. While one of the goals of the SEC’s money market fund rule is to reinforce conservative investment practices across the money market fund industry, our security selection process has long emphasized conservative investment choices.

 

Q   Did you make any changes to the Funds’ portfolios during the Reporting Period?

 

A  

During the Reporting Period, we made adjustments to the Funds’ weighted average maturities and their allocations to

specific investments based on then-current market conditions, our near-term view and anticipated and actual Fed monetary policy statements.

 

Q   What is the Funds’ tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

 

A   At the end of the Reporting Period, we expected interest rates would remain low in the near term and the Fed to be ready to respond to market conditions as the U.S. and its economy recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. In our view, news of the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccine candidates boded well for the medium-term economic outlook, but we considered the near-term picture less certain given the backdrop of rapidly rising COVID-19 infections and increased restrictions at the end of the Reporting Period. We believed the resurgence of COVID-19 cases and efforts to curb its spread could weigh on economic activity in the short term. Regarding fiscal policy, the prospects for additional stimulus were uncertain when the Reporting Period concluded, though we noted ongoing discussions in Washington, D.C. about a potential deal.

 

      Looking ahead, the Funds will continue to be flexibly guided by shifting market conditions, and we have positioned them to seek to take advantage of the Fed’s accommodative monetary policy. Duration management and duration positioning will continue to play key roles in the management of the Funds. (Duration is a measure of a fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates.) That said, regardless of the interest rate environment, we intend to utilize an active management approach to provide the best possible return within the framework of the Funds’ guidelines and objectives. Our investment approach remains tri-fold — to seek preservation of capital, daily liquidity and maximization of yield potential. We will continue to manage interest, liquidity and credit risk daily. We will also continue to closely monitor economic data, Fed policy and any shifts in the money market yield curves, as we strive to navigate the interest rate environment.

The returns represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Funds’ investment returns will fluctuate. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Please visit our Web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

 

1    Each of the Treasury Obligations, Money Market, Treasury Instruments and Treasury Solutions Funds offers nine separate classes of shares (Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management, Premier and Resource), the Federal Instruments Fund offers eight separate classes of shares (Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management and Premier), the Prime Obligations Fund offers ten separate classes of shares (Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management, Premier, Resource and Drexel Hamilton Class), and the Government Fund offers thirteen separate classes of shares (Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management, Premier, Resource, Drexel Hamilton Class, Class R6, Class A and Class C), each of which is subject to different fees and expenses that affect performance and entitles shareholders to different services. The Institutional, Drexel Hamilton Class, and Class R6 Shares do not have distribution and/or service (12b-1) or administration and/or service (non-12b-1) fees. The Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management, Premier, Resource, Class A and Class C Shares offer financial institutions the opportunity to receive fees for providing certain distribution, administrative support and/or shareholder services (as applicable). As an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, these share classes pay combined distribution and/or service (12b-1), administration and/ or service (non-12b-1) fees (as applicable) at the following contractual rates: the Select Shares pay 0.03%, Preferred Shares pay 0.10%, Capital Shares pay 0.15%, Administration Shares pay 0.25%, Service Shares pay 0.50%, Cash Management Shares pay 0.80%, Premier Shares pay 0.35%, Resource Shares pay 0.65%, Class A Shares pay 0.25% and Class C Shares pay 1.00%. If these fees were reflected in the above performance, performance would have been reduced. In addition, the Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.

 

2    The investment adviser may contractually agree to waive or reimburse certain fees and expenses until a specified date. The investment adviser may also voluntarily waive certain fees and expenses, and such voluntary waivers may be discontinued or modified at any time without notice. The performance shown above reflects any waivers or reimbursements that were in effect for all or a portion of the periods shown. When waivers or reimbursements are in place, the Fund’s operating expenses are reduced and the Fund’s yield and total returns to the shareholder are increased.

 

3    The net asset value (NAV) represents the net assets of the class of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares of the class outstanding. A Fund’s total return reflects the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions.

 

4    The SEC 7-Day Current Yield is calculated in accordance with securities industry regulations and does not include net capital gains. SEC 7-Day Current Yield may differ slightly from the actual distribution rate of a given Fund because of the exclusion of distributed capital gains, which are non-recurring. The SEC 7-Day Current Yield more closely reflects a Fund’s current earnings than do the Fund Total Return figures.

The percentage shown for each investment category reflects the value of investments in that category as a percentage of net assets.

(a)

  All or a portion represents a forward commitment.

(b)

  Variable or floating rate security. Except for floating rate notes (for which final maturity is disclosed), maturity date disclosed is the next interest reset date. Interest rate disclosed is that which is in effect on November 30, 2020.

Interest rates represent either the stated coupon rate, annualized yield on date of purchase for discounted securities, or, for floating rate securities, the current reset rate, which is based upon interest rate indices.

Maturity dates represent either the final legal maturity date on the security, the demand date for puttable securities, the date of the next interest rate reset for variable rate securities, or the prerefunded date for those types of securities.

1. ORGANIZATION

 

Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The following table lists those series of the Trust that are included in this report (collectively, the “Funds” or individually a “Fund”), along with their corresponding share classes and respective diversification status under the Act:

 

Fund*      Share Classes Offered      Diversified/
Non-Diversified

     Diversified

 

*   Effective September 1, 2020, the Funds changed their fiscal year end from August 31 to November 30.

Class C Shares may typically be acquired only in an exchange for Class C Shares of another Goldman Sachs Fund. Class C Shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00% during the first 12 months, measured from the time the original shares subject to the CDSC were acquired.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to management agreements (the “Agreements”) with the Trust.

The following Funds were designated by the Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) as “institutional money market funds” under Rule 2a-7 under the Act: Financial Square Money Market Fund and Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund (the “Institutional Money Market Funds”). Each of the Institutional Money Market Funds must price its shares at a net asset value (“NAV”) reflecting market-based values of its portfolio securities (i.e., at a “floating” NAV) rounded to the fourth decimal place (e.g., $1.0000).

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Each Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A.  Investment Valuation — The investment valuation policy of the Funds, except for the Institutional Money Market Funds, is to use the amortized-cost method permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the Act for valuing portfolio securities. The amortized-cost method of valuation involves valuing a security at its cost and thereafter applying a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. Normally, a security’s amortized cost will approximate its market value. Under procedures and tolerances approved by the Trustees, GSAM evaluates daily the difference between each Fund’s NAV per share using the amortized costs of its portfolio securities and the Fund’s NAV per share using market-based values of its portfolio securities. The Institutional Money Market Funds’ investment valuation policy is to value its portfolio securities only at market-based values. The market-based value of a portfolio security is determined, where readily available, on the basis of market quotations provided by pricing services or securities dealers, or, where accurate market quotations are not readily available, on the basis of the security’s fair value as

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

determined in accordance with Valuation Procedures approved by the Trustees. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which may consider (among other things): (i) yield or price with respect to debt securities that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value.

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost.

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

D.  Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies (mutual funds) and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable and tax exempt income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Funds are not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are declared and recorded daily and paid monthly by the Funds and may include short-term capital gains. Long-term capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually. A Fund may defer or accelerate the timing of the distribution of short-term capital gains (or any portion thereof).

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

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

E.  Forward Commitments — A forward commitment involves entering into a contract to purchase or sell securities, typically on an extended settlement basis, for a fixed price at a future date. The purchase of securities on a forward commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines before the settlement date. Conversely, the sale of securities on a forward commitment basis involves the risk that the value of the securities sold may increase before the settlement date. Although a Fund will generally purchase securities on a forward commitment basis with the intention of acquiring the securities for its portfolio, the Fund may dispose of forward commitments prior to settlement which may result in a realized gain or loss.

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

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

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

November 30, 2020

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

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

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

 

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS   

U.S. GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price); the Funds’ policy is to use the market approach. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

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

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

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

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

As of November 30, 2020, all investments and repurchase agreements, other than those held by the Institutional Money Market Funds, are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. All investments for the Institutional Money Market Funds are classified as Level 2, with the exception of treasury securities of G7 countries which are generally classified as Level 1. Please refer to the Schedules of Investments for further detail.

 

4. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS   

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

GOLDMAN SACHS — FINANCIAL SQUARE FUNDS

 

 

 

4. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued)

 

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

B.  Administration, Service and/or Shareholder Administration Plans — The Trust, on behalf of each applicable Fund, has adopted Administration, Service and/or Shareholder Administration Plans (the “Plans”) to allow Class C, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource and Cash Management Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing varying levels of account administration and/or personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Plans provide for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets of such shares, as set forth below.

C.  Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Plans — The Trust, on behalf of Class A Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, Goldman Sachs, which serves as distributor (the “Distributor”), is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services and personal and account maintenance services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of Class C, Resource and Cash Management Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted Distribution Plans subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution Plans, Goldman Sachs as Distributor is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C, Resource and Cash Management Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of the Service Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act to allow Service Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan provides for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Service Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

D.  Distribution Agreement — Goldman Sachs, as Distributor of the shares of the Funds pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, may retain a portion of the Class C Shares’ CDSC. During the period ended November 30, 2020, Goldman Sachs has advised that it retained $596 in CDSCs with respect to Class C Shares of the Financial Square Government Fund.

E.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Funds for a fee pursuant to a Transfer Agency Agreement. The fee charged for such transfer agency services is accrued daily and paid monthly and is equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets, as set forth below.

F.  Other Agreements — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Funds (excluding transfer agency fees and expenses, administration fees (as applicable), service fees (as applicable), shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, 0.014% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. These Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least December 29, 2021, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees.

In addition, the Funds have entered into certain offset arrangements with the custodian which may result in a reduction of the Funds’ expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

G.  Total Fund Expenses

Fund Contractual Fees

The contractual management fee rate is 0.18% for the Financial Square Federal Instruments, Financial Square Treasury Instruments, Financial Square Treasury Obligations and Financial Square Treasury Solutions Funds and 0.16% for the Financial Square Government, Financial Square Money Market and Financial Square Prime Obligations Funds.

Fund Effective Net Expenses (After Waivers and Reimbursements)

The investment adviser may contractually agree to waive or reimburse certain fees and expenses until a specified date. For the period from September 1, 2020 to November 30, 2020, the investment adviser agreed to not impose a portion of the management fee equal annually to 0.06% of the Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund’s average daily net assets. This arrangement remained in effect through December 27, 2020. The investment adviser may also voluntarily waive certain fees and expenses, and such voluntary waivers may be discontinued or modified at any time without notice.

During the period ended November 30, 2020, GSAM and Goldman Sachs (as applicable) agreed to waive all or a portion of the management fees and respective class-specific fees described above attributable to the Funds. The Funds are not obligated to reimburse GSAM or Goldman Sachs for prior fiscal year fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any.

As of November 30, 2020, the aggregate cost for each Fund stated in the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities also represents aggregate cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

For the period ended November 30, 2020, the Financial Square Money Market Fund utilized $125,878 in Capital Loss Carryforwards.

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

 

6. OTHER RISKS   

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

Floating and Variable Rate Obligations Risk — Floating rate and variable rate obligations are debt instruments issued by companies or other entities with interest rates that reset periodically (typically, daily. monthly, quarterly, or semiannually) in response to changes in the market rate of interest on which the interest rate is based. For floating and variable rate obligations, there may be a lag between an actual change in the underlying interest rate benchmark and the reset time for an interest payment of such an obligation, which could harm or benefit the Fund, depending on the interest rate environment or other circumstances. In a rising interest rate environment, for example, a floating or variable rate obligation that does not reset immediately would prevent the Fund from taking full advantage of rising interest rates in a timely manner. However, in a declining interest rate environment, the Fund may benefit from a lag due to an obligation’s interest rate payment not being immediately impacted by a decline in interest rates.

In 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) warned that LIBOR may cease to be available or appropriate for use by 2021. The unavailability or replacement of LIBOR may affect the value, liquidity or return on certain Fund investments and may result in costs incurred in connection with closing out positions and entering into new trades. Any pricing adjustments to the Fund’s investments resulting from a substitute reference rate may also adversely affect the Fund’s performance and/or NAV.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include a Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV and liquidity. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

November 30, 2020

 

6. OTHER RISKS (continued)

 

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, a Fund’s yield will tend to be lower than prevailing market rates, and the market value of its securities or instruments may also be adversely affected. A low interest rate environment poses additional risks to a Fund, because low yields on the Fund’s portfolio holdings may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s ability to provide a positive yield to its shareholders, pay expenses out of Fund assets, or, at times, maintain a stable $1.00 share price (or, for the Institutional Money Market Funds, minimize the volatility of the Fund’s NAV per share). The risks associated with changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets and a Fund’s investments. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Funds.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, a Fund trade financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). The value of the securities in which a Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular sectors or governments and/or general economic conditions throughout the world due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. Events such as war, acts of terrorism, social unrest, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats could also significantly impact a Fund and its investments. Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Credit/Default Risk — An issuer or guarantor of a security held by a Fund, or a bank or other financial institution that has entered into a repurchase agreement with the Fund, may default on its obligation to pay interest and repay principal or default on any other obligation. Additionally, the credit quality of securities may deteriorate rapidly, which may impair a Fund’s liquidity and cause significant deterioration in NAV.

 

7. INDEMNIFICATIONS   

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

 

8. OTHER MATTERS

Exemptive Orders — Pursuant to SEC exemptive orders, the Funds may enter into certain principal transactions, including repurchase agreements, with Goldman Sachs.

New Accounting Standards — In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This ASU

provides optional exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions affected reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020-04 is elective and is effective on March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. As of the financial reporting period, GSAM is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying ASU 2020-04.

Other — On October 22, 2020, Goldman Sachs announced a settlement of matters involving 1Malaysia Development Bhd. (1MDB), a Malaysian sovereign wealth fund, with the United States Department of Justice as well as criminal and civil authorities in the UK, Singapore and Hong Kong. Further information regarding the 1MDB settlement can be found at https://www.goldmansachs.com/media-relations/press-releases/current/goldman-sachs-2020-10-22.html. The 1MDB settlement will not materially adversely affect GSAM’s ability to serve as investment manager.

 

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS   

Subsequent events after the Statements of Assets and Liabilities date have been evaluated and GSAM has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Money Market Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund, and Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Solutions Fund

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Goldman Sachs Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Money Market Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund, and Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Solutions Fund (seven of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of November 30, 2020, the related statements of operations for the period September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 and the year ended August 31, 2020, the statements of changes in net assets for the period September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 and for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2020, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of November 30, 2020, the results of each of their operations for the period September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 and for the year ended August 31, 2020, the changes in each of their net assets for the period September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 and for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2020 and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements 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 Funds 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 of these financial statements 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 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, 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. 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. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2020 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended November 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Class A, Class C, Institutional, Capital, Service, Preferred, Select, Administration, Cash Management, Premier, Resource, Class R6, or Drexel Hamilton Class of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including contingent deferred sales charges (with respect to Class C Shares); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and distribution, service, administration and/or shareholder administration fees (with respect to all share classes except Institutional Shares and Class R6 Shares) and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Institutional Shares, Select Shares, Preferred Shares. Capital Shares, Administration Shares, Premier Shares, Service Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Resource Shares, Cash Management Shares, Class R6 Shares, or Drexel Hamilton Class of the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020, which represents a period of 183 days in a 365 day year.

Actual Expenses — The first line under each share class in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000=8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the column heading entitled “Expenses Paid” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

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

Investment Objective and Principal Investment Strategies

The Goldman Sachs Investor Funds seek to maximize current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity by investing exclusively in high quality money market instruments. The Goldman Sachs Investor Money Market Fund pursues this investment objective by investing in U.S. government securities, obligations of banks (which may exceed 25% of its total assets), commercial paper and other short-term obligations of U.S. companies, states, municipalities and other entities, and repurchase agreements (“repos”). It may also invest in U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of foreign banks, foreign companies and foreign governments. The Goldman Sachs Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund pursues the investment objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets in securities issued by or on behalf of states, territories and possessions of the U.S. and their political subdivisions, agencies, authorities and instrumentalities, and the District of Columbia. It may also invest in short-term taxable instruments, including repos with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, for temporary investment purposes.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

The Board of Trustees of the Goldman Sachs Trust approved a change to the fiscal year end of the Investor Funds (the “Funds”). Effective September 1, 2020, the Funds’ fiscal year end changed from August 31 to November 30. Below, the Goldman Sachs Money Market Portfolio Management Team discusses the Funds’ performance and positioning for the period from September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 (the “Reporting Period”).

 

Q   What economic and market factors most influenced the money markets as a whole during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, the money markets were most influenced by Federal Reserve (“Fed”) policy and the outlook for the U.S. economy.

 

  

The Fed held the targeted federal funds rate in a range of between 0% and 0.25% throughout the Reporting Period. Policymakers also signaled the monetary policy backdrop was likely to remain accommodative and short-term interest rates would likely stay low for the foreseeable future. In addition, Fed officials adopted a flexible form of average inflation targeting wherein they would aim for an inflation rate moderately above 2% following periods when inflation has run persistently below 2%, seeking an average of 2% over time.

 

  

Positive news about COVID-19 vaccines benefited the medium-term outlook for U.S. economic activity and growth as well as the labor market. However, it was unclear to what extent stronger economic growth and a smaller output gap would translate to higher price inflation.

 

  

In this environment, the yields of taxable and tax-exempt money market funds generally remained stable and close to zero. Investments in U.S. taxable money market funds declined during the Reporting Period, dropping from $4.5 trillion in August 2020 to $4.3 trillion in November 2020, according to iMoneyNet. Much of the decrease could be attributed to an improvement in investor risk sentiment. Investors rotated into riskier asset classes as uncertainties surrounding the outcome of the November U.S. election and the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines eased. As for U.S. tax-exempt money market funds, net outflows totaled $15 billion during the Reporting Period, according to iMoneyNet.

 

Q   What key factors were responsible for the performance of the Funds during the Reporting Period?

 

A  

The yields of the Goldman Sachs Investor Money Market Fund (“the taxable Fund”) and the Goldman Sachs Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund (“the tax-exempt Fund”) remained rather stable during the Reporting Period largely because of the economic and market factors discussed above. The taxable money market yield curve steepened slightly, as the front, or short-term, end of the U.S. Treasury curve shifted downward and the intermediate- to longer-term end shifted upward. The tax-exempt money yield curve flattened during the Reporting Period, as the longer-term end of the curve shifted downward. (Yield curve is a spectrum of interest rates based on maturities of varying lengths. A

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

 

 

steepening yield curve is one wherein the differential in yields between longer-term and shorter-term maturities widens; opposite of a flattening yield curve.)

 

Q   How did you manage the taxable Fund during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, the taxable Fund had investments in commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper, time deposits, repurchase agreements (“repos”), government agency securities, U.S. Treasury securities, certificates of deposit, non-U.S. sovereign debt floating rate securities and variable rate demand notes (“VRDNs”).

 

  

We maintained the taxable Fund’s weighted average maturity at 38 days during September 2020 and 38 days during October. In November, we increased its weighted average maturity to 50 days. For the Reporting Period overall, the taxable Fund focused its investments on U.S. Treasury securities, government agency repos, VRDNs, financial company commercial paper, certificates of deposit and asset-backed commercial paper. We increased the taxable Fund’s allocations to U.S. Treasury securities during the Reporting Period.

 

  

The weighted average maturity of a money market fund is a measure of its price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Also known as effective maturity, weighted average maturity measures the weighted average of the maturity date of bonds held by a Fund, taking into consideration any available maturity shortening features.

 

Q   How did you manage the tax-exempt Fund during the Reporting Period?

 

A   The tax-exempt Fund had investments in VRDNs, short-term tax-exempt securities, non-financial commercial paper and other municipal securities during the Reporting Period.

 

  

We decreased the tax-exempt Fund’s weighted average maturity from 36 days at the beginning of the Reporting Period to 19 days in September 2020. We subsequently reduced its weighted average maturity to 13 days in October and 11 days in November. During the Reporting Period overall, the tax-exempt Fund focused its investments on VRDNs, non-financial tax-exempt commercial paper and other municipal securities. Its allocation to VRDNs decreased slightly during the Reporting Period.

 

Q   How did you manage the Funds’ weighted average life during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, we managed the weighted average life of the taxable and tax-exempt Funds at less than 120 days. In the taxable Fund, we maintained a weighted average life in a range between 38 days and 50 days. In the tax-exempt Fund, we maintained a weighted average life in a range between 11 days and 39 days. The weighted average life of a money market fund is a measure of a money market fund’s price sensitivity to changes in liquidity and/or credit risk.

 

  

Under amendments to SEC Rule 2a-7 that became effective in May 2010, the maximum allowable weighted average life of a money market fund is 120 days. While one of the goals of the SEC’s money market fund rule is to reinforce conservative investment practices across the money market fund industry, our security selection process has long emphasized conservative investment choices.

 

Q   Did you make any changes to the Funds’ portfolios during the Reporting Period?

 

A   During the Reporting Period, we made adjustments to the Funds’ weighted average maturities and their allocations to specific investments based on then-current market conditions, our near-term view and anticipated and actual Fed monetary policy statements.

 

Q   What is the Funds’ tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

 

A   At the end of the Reporting Period, we expected interest rates would remain low in the near term and the Fed to be ready to respond to market conditions as the U.S. and its economy recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. In our view, news of the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccine candidates boded well for the medium-term economic outlook, but we considered the near-term picture less certain given the backdrop of rapidly rising COVID-19 infections and increased restrictions at the end of the Reporting Period. We believed the resurgence of COVID-19 cases and efforts to curb its spread could weigh on economic activity in the short term. Regarding fiscal policy, the prospects for additional stimulus were uncertain when the Reporting Period concluded, though we noted ongoing discussions in Washington, D.C. about a potential deal.

 

  

Looking ahead, the taxable and tax-exempt Funds will continue to be flexibly guided by shifting market conditions, and we have positioned them to seek to take advantage of the Fed’s accommodative monetary policy. Duration management and duration positioning will continue to play key roles in the management of the Funds. (Duration is a measure of a fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates.) That said, regardless of the interest rate environment, we

intend to utilize an active management approach to provide the best possible return within the framework of the Funds’ guidelines and objectives. Our investment approach remains tri-fold — to seek preservation of capital, daily liquidity and maximization of yield potential. We will continue to manage interest, liquidity and credit risk daily. We will also continue to closely monitor economic data, Fed policy and any shifts in the taxable and tax-exempt money market yield curves, as we strive to navigate the interest rate environment.

You could lose money by investing in the Fund. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. The Fund may impose a fee upon sale of your shares or may temporarily suspend your ability to sell shares if the Fund’s liquidity falls below required minimums because of market conditions or other factors. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

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

 

1    The Money Market Fund offers seven separate classes of shares (Class I, Administration, Service, Resource, Cash Management, Class A and Class C Shares) and the Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund offers eleven separate classes of shares (Class I, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource, Cash Management, Class A and Class C Shares), each of which is subject to different fees and expenses that affect performance and entitles shareholders to different services. The Class I Shares do not have distribution and/or service (12b-1) or administration and/or service (non-12b-1) fees. The Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource, Cash Management, Class A and Class C Shares offer financial institutions the opportunity to receive fees for providing certain distribution, administrative support and/or shareholder services (as applicable). As an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, these share classes pay combined distribution and/or service (12b-1) or administration and/or service (non-12b-1) fees (as applicable) at the following contractual rates: Select Shares pay 0.03%, Preferred Shares pay 0.10%, Capital Shares pay 0.15%, Administration Shares pay 0.25%, Premier Shares pay 0.35%, Service Shares pay 0.50%, Resource Shares pay 0.65%, Cash Management Shares pay 0.80%, Class A Shares pay 0.25%, and Class C Shares pay 1.00%. If these fees were reflected in the above performance, performance would have been reduced. In addition, the Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.

 

2   The investment adviser may contractually agree to waive or reimburse certain fees and expenses until a specified date. The investment adviser may also voluntarily waive certain fees and expenses, and such voluntary waivers may be discontinued or modified at any time without notice.

(b)

  Variable or floating rate security. Except for floating rate notes (for which final maturity is disclosed), maturity date disclosed is the next interest reset date. Interest rate disclosed is that which is in effect on November 30, 2020.

(c)

  Rate shown is that which is in effect on November 30, 2020. Certain variable rate securities are not based on a published reference rate and spread but are determined by the issuer or agent and are based on current market conditions.

(d)

  Unless noted, all repurchase agreements were entered into on November 30, 2020. Additional information on Joint Repurchase Agreement Account III appears in the Additional Investment Information section.

Interest rates represent either the stated coupon rate, annualized yield on date of purchase for discounted securities, or, for floating rate securities, the current reset rate, which is based upon current interest rate indices.

Maturity dates represent either the final legal maturity date on the security, the demand date for puttable securities, the date of the next interest rate reset for variable rate securities, or the prerefunded date for those types of securities.

Notes to Financial Statements

November 30, 2020

 

1. ORGANIZATION

 

Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The following table lists those series of the Trust that are included in this report (collectively, the “Funds” or individually a “Fund”), along with their corresponding share classes and respective diversification status under the Act:

 

Fund*      Share Classes Offered    Diversified/
Non-diversified

Investor Money Market

    

Class A, Class C, Class I, Service, Administration, Cash Management, and Resource

   Diversified

Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market

    

Class A, Class C, Class I, Capital, Service, Preferred, Select, Administration, Cash Management, Premier, and Resource

   Diversified

 

*   Effective September 1, 2020, the Funds changed their fiscal year end from August 31 to November 30.

Class C Shares may typically be acquired only in an exchange for Class C Shares of another Goldman Sachs Fund. Class C Shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00% during the first 12 months, measured from the time the original shares subject to the CDSC were acquired.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to management agreements (the “Agreements”) with the Trust.

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Each Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A.  Investment Valuation — The investment valuation policy of the Funds is to use the amortized-cost method permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the Act for valuing portfolio securities. The amortized-cost method of valuation involves valuing a security at its cost and thereafter applying a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. Normally, a security’s amortized cost will approximate its market value. Under procedures and tolerances approved by the Board of Trustees (“Trustees”), GSAM evaluates daily the difference between each Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share using the amortized costs of its portfolio securities and the Fund’s NAV per share using market-based values of its portfolio securities. The market- based value of a portfolio security is determined, where readily available, on the basis of market quotations provided by pricing services or securities dealers, or, where accurate market quotations are not readily available, on the basis of the security’s fair value as determined in accordance with Valuation Procedures approved by the Trustees. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which may consider (among other things): (i) yield or price with respect to debt securities that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value.

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost.

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

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

D.  Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies (mutual funds) and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable and tax-exempt income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, each Fund is not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are declared and recorded daily and paid monthly by the Funds and may include short-term capital gains. Long- term capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually. A Fund may defer or accelerate the timing of the distribution of short-term capital gains (or any portion thereof).

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

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

E.  Forward Commitments — A forward commitment involves entering into a contract to purchase or sell securities, typically on an extended settlement basis, for a fixed price at a future date. The purchase of securities on a forward commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines before the settlement date. Conversely, the sale of securities on a forward commitment basis involves the risk that the value of the securities sold may increase before the settlement date. Although a Fund will generally purchase securities on a forward commitment basis with the intention of acquiring the securities for its portfolio, the Fund may dispose of forward commitments prior to settlement which may result in a realized gain or loss.

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

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

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

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

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

U.S. GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price); the Funds’ policy is to use the market approach. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

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

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

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

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

As of November 30, 2020, all investments are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Please refer to the Schedules of Investments for further detail.

 

4. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

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

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

B.  Administration, Service and/or Shareholder Administration Plans — The Trust, on behalf of each applicable Fund, has adopted Administration, Service and/or Shareholder Administration Plans (the “Plans”) to allow Class C, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource and Cash Management Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing varying levels of account administration and/or personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Plans provide for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets of such shares, as set forth below.

C.  Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Plans — The Trust, on behalf of the Class A Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, Goldman Sachs, which serves as distributor (the “Distributor”), is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services and personal and account maintenance services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

4. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued)

 

The Trust, on behalf of Class C, Resource and Cash Management Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted Distribution Plans subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution Plans, Goldman Sachs as Distributor is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C, Resource and Cash Management Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of the Service Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act to allow Service Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan provides for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Service Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

D.  Distribution Agreement — Goldman Sachs, as Distributor of the shares of the Funds pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, may retain a portion of the Class C Shares’ CDSC. During the period ended November 30, 2020, Goldman Sachs has advised that it did not retain any CDSCs with respect to Class C Shares of the Funds.

E.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Funds for a fee pursuant to a Transfer Agency Agreement. The fee charged for such transfer agency services is accrued daily and paid monthly and is equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

F.  Other Agreements — GSAM has agreed to limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Funds (excluding transfer agency fees and expenses, administration fees (as applicable), service fees (as applicable), shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, 0.014% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. These Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least December 29, 2021, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees.

In addition, the Funds have entered into certain offset arrangements with the custodian which may result in a reduction of the Funds’ expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

I.  Line of Credit Facility — As of November 30, 2020, the Funds participated in a $700,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Funds based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the period ended November 30, 2020, the Funds did not have any borrowings under the facility.

The Investor Money Market Fund re-classed $127,185 from paid in capital to distributable earnings for the period ending November 30, 2020. In order to present certain components of the Fund’s capital accounts on a tax-basis, certain reclassifications have been recorded to the Fund’s accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the net asset value of the Fund’s and result primarily from net operating losses and redemptions utilized as distributions.

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

 

6. OTHER RISKS

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

Floating and Variable Rate Obligations Risk — Floating rate and variable rate obligations are debt instruments issued by companies or other entities with interest rates that reset periodically (typically, daily. monthly, quarterly, or semiannually) in response to changes in the market rate of interest on which the interest rate is based. For floating and variable rate obligations, there may be a lag between an actual change in the underlying interest rate benchmark and the reset time for an interest payment of such an obligation, which could harm or benefit the Fund, depending on the interest rate environment or other circumstances. In a rising interest rate environment, for example, a floating or variable rate obligation that does not reset immediately would prevent the Fund from taking full advantage of rising interest rates in a timely manner. However, in a declining interest rate environment, the Fund may benefit from a lag due to an obligation’s interest rate payment not being immediately impacted by a decline in interest rates.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

November 30, 2020

 

6. OTHER RISKS (continued)

 

In 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) warned that LIBOR may cease to be available or appropriate for use by 2021. The unavailability or replacement of LIBOR may affect the value, liquidity or return on certain Fund investments and may result in costs incurred in connection with closing out positions and entering into new trades. Any pricing adjustments to the Fund’s investment resulting from a substitute reference rate may also adversely affect the Fund’s performance and/or NAV.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients) and individuals, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV and liquidity. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, a Fund’s yield will tend to be lower than prevailing market rates, and the market value of its securities or instruments may also be adversely affected. A low interest rate environment poses additional risks to a Fund, because low yields on the Fund’s portfolio holdings may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s ability to provide a positive yield to its shareholders, pay expenses out of Fund assets, or, at times, maintain a stable $1.00 share price. The risks associated with changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets and a Fund’s investments. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Funds.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, a Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). The value of the securities in which a Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular sectors or governments and/or general economic conditions throughout the world due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. Events such as war, acts of terrorism, social unrest, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats could also significantly impact a Fund and its investments. Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Geographic and Sector Risk — The Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund may invest a significant portion of its total assets in certain issuers within the same state, geographic region or economic sector, which may subject the value of the Fund’s investments to risks associated with an adverse economic, business, political or environmental development affecting that state, region or sector.

Credit/Default Risk — An issuer or guarantor of a security held by the Fund, or a bank or other financial institution that has entered into a repurchase agreement with the Fund, may default on its obligation to pay interest and repay principal or default on any other obligation. Additionally, the credit quality of securities may deteriorate rapidly, which may impair the Fund’s liquidity and cause significant deterioration in NAV.

 

7. INDEMNIFICATIONS

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

 

38


GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — INVESTOR FUNDS

 

 

 

8. OTHER MATTERS

 

Exemptive Orders — Pursuant to SEC exemptive orders, the Funds may enter into certain principal transactions, including repurchase agreements, with Goldman Sachs.

New Accounting Standards — In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This ASU provides optional exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020-04 is elective and is effective on March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. As of the financial reporting period, GSAM is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying ASU 2020-04.

Other — On October 22, 2020, Goldman Sachs announced a settlement of matters involving 1Malaysia Development Bhd. (1MDB), a Malaysian sovereign wealth fund, with the United States Department of Justice as well as criminal and civil authorities in the UK, Singapore and Hong Kong. Further information regarding the 1MDB settlement can be found at https://www.goldmansachs.com/media-relations/press-releases/current/goldman-sachs-2020-10-22.html. The 1MDB settlement will not materially adversely affect GSAM’s ability to serve as investment manager.

 

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events after the Statements of Assets and Liabilities date have been evaluated and GSAM has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Investor Money Market Fund and Goldman Sachs Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Goldman Sachs Investor Money Market Fund and Goldman Sachs Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund (two of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of November 30, 2020, the related statements of operations for the period September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 and the year ended August 31, 2020, the statements of changes in net assets for the period September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 and for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2020, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of November 30, 2020, the results of each of their operations for the period September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 and for the year ended August 31, 2020, the changes in each of their net assets for the period September 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020 and for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2020 and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements 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 Funds 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 of these financial statements 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 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, 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. 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. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2020 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended  November 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

As a shareholder of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares, Service Shares, Preferred Shares, Select Shares, Administration Shares, Cash Management Shares, Premier Shares, or Resource Shares of a Fund you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including contingent deferred sales charges (with respect to Class C Shares); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and distribution, service, administration and/or shareholder administration fees (with respect to all share classes except Class I Shares) and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class I Shares, Select Shares, Preferred Shares, Capital Shares, Administration Shares, Premier Shares, Service Shares, Resource Shares, Cash Management Shares, Class A Shares, or Class C Shares of the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2020 through November 30, 2020, which represents a period of 183 days in a 365-day year.

Actual Expenses — The first line under each Share class in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000=8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each Share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

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

  *   Expenses for each share class are calculated using the Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended 11/30/2020. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

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

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

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

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

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

Item 4(f) – Not applicable.

Item 4(g) Aggregate Non-Audit Fees Disclosure

The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST by PwC for the twelve months ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 were approximately $399,079 and $1,279,647, respectively. The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST’s adviser and service affiliates by PwC for non-audit services for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were approximately $14.7 million and $12.3 million, respectively. The figures for these entities are not yet available for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. With regard to the aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST’s adviser and service affiliates, the 2019 and 2018 amounts include fees for non-audit services required to be pre-approved [see Table 2] and fees for non-audit services that did not require pre-approval since they did not directly relate to GST’s operations or financial reporting.

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