Portfolio management review

Delaware Funds^® by Macquarie national tax-free funds

Economic backdrop

Throughout the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 2019, the US economy grew, albeit at a moderating pace, reflecting mounting concerns about the US-China trade dispute. In the third quarter of 2018, US gross domestic product (GDP) – a measure of national economic output – rose by an annualized 2.9%, down from the previous quarter. Growth slowed to 1.1% in the final three months of 2018 before bouncing back to 3.1% in the first quarter of 2019. In the second quarter of 2019, the country’s GDP rose an estimated 2.0%.

Against this backdrop of economic expansion, job growth also remained strong. In August 2019, the US unemployment rate stood at 3.7%, matching its level one year earlier and close to the nearly

50-year low of 3.6% achieved in both April and May 2019.

When the fiscal year began in September 2018, the US Federal Reserve continued to raise its short-term target interest rate, maintaining a cycle that had been in place since 2015. In September and again in December 2018, the Fed lifted the federal funds rate by 0.25 percentage points. As data mounted suggesting a slowing US economy, however, the Fed adjusted its policy direction – initially, by no longer raising rates and then, in June 2019, reversing its rate increase from December. By the end of the Funds’ fiscal year on Aug. 31, 2019, the federal funds rate was within a range of 2.00% to 2.25%. Investors widely anticipated that the Fed would enact further rate cuts at its meetings later in 2019.

Municipal bond market conditions

Uncertainty about trade policy led to uncertainty about future global growth, encouraging global central banks to implement increasingly stimulative economic policies. This led to a highly favorable backdrop for municipal debt, particularly

as the Funds’ fiscal year progressed. The US municipal bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index, returned 8.72% for the 12 months ended Aug. 31, 2019.

As rates on longer-term bonds fell more than those on shorter-term issues, the municipal yield curve flattened. The largest yield declines came from the “belly” of the municipal yield curve, while the strongest overall performance came from the 20-year (17-22 years) and the long bond (22+ years) segments of the curve. Meanwhile, credit spreads tightened, indicating that investors were willing to accept somewhat less yield in exchange for assuming credit risk in an environment of generally healthy credit fundamentals.

Lower-rated bonds generally outperformed their higher-rated counterparts, while bonds with longer maturities tended to outpace those with shorter maturities. The following tables highlight these performance trends for the Funds’ fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 2019:

Returns by credit rating
AAA	8.17	%
AA	8.37	%
A	9.20	%
BBB	10.48	%
Returns by maturity
1 year	2.65	%
5 years	6.34	%
10 years	9.48	%
22+ years	11.14	%
Source: Bloomberg.

Focused on credit research

For all three of the Funds highlighted in this report, we maintained the same management strategy we employ in all market conditions. We follow a bottom-up (bond by bond) investment approach. This means we select bonds for the Funds on an

2

issuer-by-issuer basis, rather than based on our top-down view of interest rates or economic and market conditions. And we rely on diligent credit research to identify securities we believe offer the Funds’ shareholders a favorable trade-off between risk and reward.

Given this process, the Funds tend to have relatively low allocations to bonds with high credit ratings and greater exposure to securities with lower-investment-grade or below-investment-grade credit ratings. By focusing on higher yielding bonds with solid underlying credit quality, we believe we can potentially add value for the Funds’ shareholders.

As of Aug. 31, 2019, roughly 37% of the net assets of Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund was invested in bonds with lower-investment-grade credit ratings (A and BBB), and approximately 41% of the net assets of Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund was invested in these same credit tiers. Both Funds also maintained allocations to high yield municipal bonds, securities with credit ratings below BBB. By prospectus, both Funds may hold up to 20% of their net assets in high yield debt, although these allocations remained below that threshold in both Funds throughout the fiscal year. Whenever we invest in the high yield market segment, we thoroughly analyze the securities’ credit risk and emphasize those bonds that we believe offer the Funds’ shareholders a favorable risk-reward balance.

Consistent with its mandate, Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund maintained the largest exposure to high yield bonds of the three Funds. As of Aug. 31, 2019, more than 57% of this Fund’s net assets was held in bonds with credit ratings below BBB, including nonrated bonds.

Portfolio positioning

Throughout the fiscal year, our main objective was to maintain the Funds’ existing credit positioning as best we could. Our challenge was that when

interest rates fell, the Funds experienced naturally shortening durations, as various longtime portfolio holdings approached their maturity or call dates.

Because our management approach entails keeping the Funds’ duration (that is, interest rate sensitivity) relatively neutral compared to peer funds – a reflection of our view that we can more effectively add value through credit selection than by trying to anticipate the direction of interest rate movements – we needed to take proactive steps to maintain that neutral stance in a falling interest rate environment.

Accordingly, new bond purchases often focused on longer-duration bonds, including bonds with longer call dates. We often emphasized areas of the market in which bond issues tend to be noncallable, such as the prepaid gas sector. Proceeds for new purchases came from investment inflows and from bond maturities and calls. Using the proceeds from the sale of certain shorter-duration holdings also helped us keep the Funds neutrally positioned in an environment of falling interest rates, while maintaining the credit-oriented investment approach we regularly follow.

Notable performance factors

As noted, longer-maturity bonds tended to outperform shorter-maturity bonds for the fiscal year, while lower-quality issues generally outperformed their higher-rated counterparts. Such trends are evident as we highlight some of the Funds’ strongest- and weakest-performing securities over the 12 months.

In both Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund and Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund, for example, top-performing holdings included Kaiser Foundation hospital bonds (+27%), rated AA- by Standard & Poor’s. These California issues benefited from their relatively long 2047 maturity date and their noncallable status, which positioned them to benefit disproportionately from falling long-term interest rates.

Portfolio management review

Delaware Funds^® by Macquarie national tax-free funds

Prepaid gas bonds of Salt Verde Financial Corp. also contributed to the performance of Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund and Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund. In a market environment favoring lower-rated securities, these bonds benefited from their lower-investment-grade credit rating of BBB+. Their lack of a call date – common in the prepaid gas sector – also helped lift their performance. These securities returned more than 21% for Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund and more than 17% for Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund.

Another strong-performing prepaid gas issue in Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund consisted of bonds for Lower Alabama Gas District (+18%). These securities were similarly noncallable, had a 2034 maturity date, and a lower-investment-grade credit rating.

Further adding value to Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund were zero-coupon, long-maturity Idaho North Star Charter School bonds, which returned 49% for the Fund. These nonrated bonds’ high degree of interest rate sensitivity was a major factor behind their strong results for the 12-month period.

In contrast, many of the Funds’ biggest individual underperformers were bonds with short durations and higher credit ratings. In both Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund and Delaware Tax-Free

USA Intermediate Fund, for example, a position in City of Atlanta water and sewer revenue bonds produced modest returns of less than 2%, reflecting their short durations and higher credit quality. The latter Fund also saw a return of less than 2% from its position in Broward County (Florida) airport revenue bonds, as their shorter call dates held back these securities.

Meanwhile, in Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund, a position in California tobacco securitization bonds (-3%) was a relative underperformer for the fiscal year, as tobacco debt lagged, particularly in the first half of the fiscal year, due to weakening industry trends.

The lowest-returning holdings for Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund were two bonds whose issuers experienced financial challenges. These included Texas senior-housing bonds for Buckingham Senior Living Community and Washington State corporate-backed industrial development revenue bonds for Columbia Pulp, a maker of straw used in paper products. These bonds returned -18% and -3%, respectively, for the 12-month period. Despite the securities’ recent subpar performance, we continued to have confidence in the long-term prospects of both issuers and, as of Aug. 31, 2019, maintained the Fund’s investment in each.

¹Returns reflect the reinvestment of all distributions and are presented both with and without the applicable sales charges described below. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes the shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares.

Expense limitations were in effect for certain classes during some or all of the periods shown in the “Fund and benchmark performance” table. Expenses for each class are listed on the “Fund expense ratios” table on page 7. Performance would have been lower had expense limitations not been in effect.

Institutional Class shares are not subject to a sales charge and are offered for sale exclusively to certain eligible investors. In addition, Institutional Class shares pay no distribution and service (12b-1) fee.

Class A shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.50%, and have an annual 12b-1 fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. The Board has adopted a formula for calculating 12b-1

plan fees for the Fund’s Class A shares. The Fund’s Class A shares are currently subject to a blended 12b-1 fee equal to the sum of: (i) 0.10% of average daily net assets representing shares acquired prior to June 1, 1992, and (ii) 0.25% of average daily net assets representing shares acquired on or after June 1, 1992. All Class A shares currently bear 12b-1 fees at the same rate, the blended rate, currently 0.25% of average daily net assets, based on the formula described above. This method of calculating Class A 12b-1 fees may be discontinued at the sole discretion of the Board. Performance for Class A shares, excluding sales charges, assumes that no front-end sales charge applied.

Class C shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% if redeemed during the first 12 months. They are also subject to an annual 12b-1 fee of 1.00% of average daily net assets. Performance for Class C shares, excluding sales charges, assumes either that contingent deferred

sales charges did not apply or that the investment was not redeemed.

Fixed income securities and bond funds can lose value, and investors can lose principal, as interest rates rise. They also may be affected by economic conditions that hinder an issuer’s ability to make interest and principal payments on its debt.

The Fund may also be subject to prepayment risk, the risk that the principal of a bond that is held by a portfolio will be prepaid prior to maturity, at the time when interest rates are lower than what the bond was paying. A portfolio may then have to reinvest that money at a lower interest rate.

High yielding, non-investment-grade bonds (junk bonds) involve higher risk than investment grade bonds. The high yield secondary market is particularly susceptible to liquidity problems when institutional investors, such as mutual funds and certain other financial institutions, temporarily stop buying bonds for regulatory, financial, or other reasons. In addition, a less liquid secondary market makes it more difficult for the Fund to obtain precise valuations of the high yield securities in its portfolio.

Substantially all dividend income derived from tax-free funds is exempt from federal income tax. Some income may be subject to state or local and/or the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) that applies to certain investors. Capital gains, if any, are taxable.

Duration number will change as market conditions change. Therefore, duration should not be solely relied upon to indicate a municipal bond fund’s potential volatility.

This document may mention bond ratings published by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (NRSROs) Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and Fitch, Inc. For securities rated by an NRSRO other than S&P, the rating is converted to the equivalent S&P credit rating. Bonds rated AAA are rated as having the highest quality and are generally considered to have the lowest degree of investment risk. Bonds rated AA are considered to be of high quality, but with a slightly higher degree of risk than bonds rated AAA. Bonds rated A are considered to have many favorable investment qualities, though they are somewhat more susceptible to adverse economic conditions. Bonds rated BBB are believed to be of medium-grade quality and generally riskier over the long term. Bonds rated BB, B, and CCC are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics, with BB indicating the least degree of speculation of the three.

Bonds rated AA are considered to be of high quality, but with a slightly higher degree of risk than bonds rated AAA. Bonds rated A are considered to have many favorable investment qualities, though they are somewhat more susceptible to adverse economic conditions. Bonds rated BBB are believed to be of medium-grade quality and generally riskier over the long term. Bonds rated BB, B, and CCC are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics, with BB indicating the least degree of speculation of the three.

¹The “Performance of a $10,000 investment” graph assumes $10,000 invested in Institutional Class and Class A shares of the Fund on Aug. 31, 2009, and includes the effect of a 2.75% front-end sales charge (for Class A shares) and the reinvestment of all distributions. The graph does not reflect the deduction of taxes the shareholders would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. Expense limitations were in effect for some or all of the periods shown. Performance would have been lower had expense limitations not been in effect. Expenses are listed in the “Fund expense ratios” table on page 11. Please note additional details on pages 9 through 13.

The graph also assumes $10,000 invested in the Bloomberg Barclays 3–15 Year Blend Municipal Bond Index as of Aug. 31, 2009. The Bloomberg Barclays 3–15 Year Blend Municipal Bond Index measures the total return performance of investment grade, US tax-exempt bonds with maturities from 2 to 17 years.

Index performance returns do not reflect any management fees, transaction costs, or expenses. Indices are unmanaged and one cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

Performance of other Fund classes will vary due to different charges and expenses.

Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund	August 31, 2019

The performance quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month end may be obtained by calling 800 523-1918 or visiting delawarefunds.com/performance.

*The benchmark lifetime return is for Institutional Class share comparison only and is calculated using the last business day in the month of the Fund’s Institutional Class inception date.

¹Returns reflect the reinvestment of all distributions and are presented both with and without the applicable sales charges described below. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes the shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares.

Expense limitations were in effect for certain classes during some or all of the periods shown in the “Fund and benchmark performance” table. Expenses for each class are listed on the “Fund expense ratios” table on page 16. Performance would have been lower had expense limitations not been in effect.

Institutional Class shares are not subject to a sales charge and are offered for sale exclusively to certain eligible investors. In addition, Institutional Class shares pay no distribution and service (12b-1) fee.

Class A shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.50%, and have an annual 12b-1

fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. Performance for Class A shares, excluding sales charges, assumes that no front-end sales charge applied.

Class C shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% if redeemed during the first 12 months. They are also subject to an annual 12b-1 fee of 1.00% of average daily net assets. Performance for Class C shares, excluding sales charges, assumes either that contingent deferred sales charges did not apply or that the investment was not redeemed.

Fixed income securities and bond funds can lose value, and investors can lose principal, as interest rates rise. They also may be affected by economic conditions that hinder an issuer’s ability to make interest and principal payments on its debt.

The Fund may also be subject to prepayment risk, the risk that the principal of a bond that is held by a portfolio will be prepaid prior to maturity, at the time when interest rates are lower than what

14

the bond was paying. A portfolio may then have to reinvest that money at a lower interest rate.

High yielding, non-investment-grade bonds (junk bonds) involve higher risk than investment grade bonds. The high yield secondary market is particularly susceptible to liquidity problems when institutional investors, such as mutual funds and certain other financial institutions, temporarily stop buying bonds for regulatory, financial, or other reasons. In addition, a less liquid secondary market makes it more difficult for the Fund to obtain precise valuations of the high yield securities in its portfolio.

Substantially all dividend income derived from tax-free funds is exempt from federal income tax. Some income may be subject to state or local taxes and/or the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) that applies to certain investors. Capital gains, if any, are taxable.

Duration number will change as market conditions change. Therefore, duration should not be solely relied upon to indicate a municipal bond fund’s potential volatility.

This document may mention bond ratings published by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (NRSROs) Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and Fitch, Inc. For securities rated by an NRSRO other than S&P, the rating is converted to the equivalent S&P credit rating. Bonds rated AAA are rated as having the highest quality and are generally considered to have the lowest degree of investment risk. Bonds rated AA are considered to be of high quality, but with a slightly higher degree of risk than bonds rated AAA. Bonds rated A are considered to have many favorable investment qualities, though they are somewhat more susceptible to adverse economic conditions. Bonds rated BBB are believed to be of medium-grade quality and generally riskier over the long term.

Disclosure of Fund expenses

For the six-month period from March 1, 2019 to August 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

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

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period from March 1, 2019 to Aug. 31, 2019.

Actual expenses

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

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

The second section of the tables shown, “Hypothetical 5% return,” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in each Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second section of each table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. The Funds’ expenses shown in the tables reflect fee waivers in effect and assume reinvestment of all dividends and distributions.

Notes to financial statements
Delaware Funds® by Macquarie national tax-free funds	August 31, 2019

Delaware Group^® Tax-Free Fund is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and offers two series: Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund and Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund. Voyageur Mutual Funds is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and offers five series: Delaware Tax-Free California Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, Delaware Minnesota High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund, Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund, and Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund. Delaware Group Tax-Free Fund and Voyageur Mutual Funds are each referred to as a Trust, or collectively, as the Trusts. These financial statements and the related notes pertain to Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund, Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund, and Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund (each a Fund, or collectively, the Funds). Each Fund is an open-end investment company. The Funds are considered diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (1940 Act), and offer Class A, Class C, and Institutional Class shares. Class A shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.50% for Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund and Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund, and 2.75% for Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund. Class A share purchases of $1,000,000 or more will incur a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) instead of a front-end sales charge of 1.00%, if redeemed during the first year and 0.50% during the second year for Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund and Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund, and 0.75% for Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund if redeemed within the first year, provided that Delaware Distributors, L.P. (DDLP) paid a financial advisor a commission on the purchase of those shares. Class C shares are sold with a CDSC of 1.00%, which will be incurred if redeemed during the first 12 months. Institutional Class shares are not subject to a sales charge and are offered for sale exclusively to certain eligible investors.

The investment objective of Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund and Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund is to seek as high a level of current interest income exempt from federal income taxes as is available from municipal obligations and as is consistent with prudent investment management and preservation of capital.

The investment objective of Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund is to seek a high level of current income exempt from federal income tax primarily through investment in medium- and lower-grade municipal obligations.

1. Significant Accounting Policies

Each Fund follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. The following accounting policies are in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) and are consistently followed by the Funds.

Security Valuation – Debt securities are valued based upon valuations provided by an independent pricing service or broker and reviewed by management. To the extent current market prices are not available, the pricing service may take into account developments related to the specific security, as well as transactions in comparable securities. Valuations for fixed income securities utilize matrix systems, which reflect such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings, and are supplemented by dealer and exchange quotations. Generally, other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of each Trust’s Board of Trustees (each, a Board or, collectively, the Boards). In determining whether market

106

quotations are readily available or fair valuation will be used, various factors will be taken into consideration, such as market closures or suspension of trading in a security. Restricted securities are valued at fair value using methods approved by the Boards.

Federal Income Taxes – No provision for federal income taxes has been made as each Fund intends to continue to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and make the requisite distributions to shareholders. Each Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing each Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Management has analyzed each Fund’s tax positions taken or expected to be taken on each Fund’s federal income tax returns through the year ended Aug. 31, 2019 and for all open tax years (years ended Aug. 31, 2016–Aug. 31, 2018), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in each Fund’s financial statements. If applicable, each Fund recognizes interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in “Other expenses” on the “Statements of operations.” During the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, the Funds did not incur any interest or tax penalties.

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

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

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

Each Fund receives earnings credits from its custodian when positive cash balances are maintained, which may be used to offset custody fees. The expenses paid under this arrangement are included on the “Statements of operations” under “Custodian fees” with the corresponding expenses offset included

If the amount earned is greater than $1, the expenses paid under this arrangement are included on the “Statements of operations” under “Dividend disbursing and transfer agent fees and expenses” with the corresponding expenses offset included under “Less expenses paid indirectly.” For the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, each Fund earned the following amounts under this arrangement:

$334	$109	$485

2. Investment Management, Administration Agreements, and Other Transactions with Affiliates

In accordance with the terms of its respective investment management agreement, each Fund pays Delaware Management Company (DMC), a series of Macquarie Investment Management Business Trust and the investment manager, an annual fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly based on each Fund’s average daily net assets as follows:

	Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund	Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund
On the first $500 million	0.550%	0.500%	0.550%
On the next $500 million	0.500%	0.475%	0.500%
On the next $1.5 billion	0.450%	0.450%	0.450%
In excess of $2.5 billion	0.425%	0.425%	0.425%

DMC has contractually agreed to waive that portion, if any, of its management fee and/or pay/reimburse each Fund to the extent necessary to ensure that total annual operating expenses (excluding any distribution and service (12b-1) fees, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, interest, inverse floater program expenses, short sale and dividend interest expenses, brokerage fees, certain insurance costs, and nonroutine expenses or costs including, but not limited to, those relating to reorganizations, litigation, conducting shareholder meetings, and liquidations) in order to prevent total annual fund

108

operating expenses from exceeding the following percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets from Sept. 1, 2018 through Aug. 31, 2019.* These expense waivers and reimbursements may only be terminated by agreement of DMC and the Funds. The waivers and reimbursements are accrued daily and received monthly.

	Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund	Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund
Operating expense limitation as a percentage of average daily net assets	0.56%	0.50%	0.60%

Delaware Investments Fund Services Company (DIFSC), an affiliate of DMC, provides fund accounting and financial administration oversight services to the Funds. For these services, DIFSC’s fees are calculated daily and paid monthly based on the aggregate daily net assets of all funds within the Delaware Funds at the following annual rates: 0.00475% of the first $35 billion; 0.0040% of the next $10 billion; and 0.0025% of aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $45 billion (Total Fee). Each fund in the Delaware Funds pays a minimum of $4,000, which, in aggregate, is subtracted from the Total Fee. Each fund then pays its portion of the remainder of the Total Fee on a relative net asset value (NAV) basis. These amounts are included on the “Statements of operations” under “Accounting and administration expenses.” For the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, each Fund was charged for these services as follows:

Delaware Tax-Free        USA Fund	Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	Delaware National High-Yield        Municipal Bond Fund
$24,939	$23,844	$53,540

DIFSC is also the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent of the Funds. For these services, DIFSC’s fees are calculated daily and paid monthly based on the aggregate daily net assets of the retail funds within the Delaware Funds at the following annual rates: 0.014% of the first $20 billion; 0.011% of the next $5 billion; 0.007% of the next $5 billion; 0.005% of the next $20 billion; and 0.0025% of average daily net assets in excess of $50 billion. The fees payable to DIFSC under the shareholder services agreement described above are allocated among all retail funds in the Delaware Funds on a relative NAV basis. These amounts are included on the “Statements of operations” under “Dividend disbursing and transfer agent fees and expenses.” For the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, each Fund was charged for these services as follows:

Delaware Tax-Free        USA Fund	Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	Delaware National High-Yield        Municipal Bond Fund
$45,570	$43,280	$109,237

Pursuant to a sub-transfer agency agreement between DIFSC and BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. (BNYMIS), BNYMIS provides certain sub-transfer agency services to each Fund. Sub-transfer agency fees are paid by each Fund and are also included on the “Statements of operations” under “Dividend disbursing and transfer agent fees and expenses.” The fees that are calculated daily and paid as invoices are received on a monthly or quarterly basis.

Pursuant to a distribution agreement and distribution plan, Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund pays DDLP, the distributor and an affiliate of DMC, an annual 12b-1 fee of 0.25% of the

109

Notes to financial statements

Delaware Funds^® by Macquarie national tax-free funds

2. Investment Management, Administration Agreements, and Other Transactions with Affiliates (continued)

average daily net assets of the Class A shares. The Board for Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund has adopted a formula for calculating 12b-1 fees for the Fund’s Class A shares that went into effect on June 1, 1992. The Fund’s Class A shares are currently subject to a blended 12b-1 fee equal to the sum of: (1) 0.10% of average daily net assets representing shares acquired prior to June 1, 1992, and (2) 0.25% of average daily net assets representing shares that were acquired on or after June 1, 1992. All of the Fund’s Class A shareholders bear 12b-1 fees at the same blended rate, currently 0.25% of average daily net assets, based on the formula described on the previous page. This method of calculating Class A 12b-1 fees may be discontinued at the sole discretion of the Board. The Class A shares of Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund were subject to a 12b-1 fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets, which was contractually waived to 0.15% of average daily net assets from Sept. 1, 2018 through Aug. 31, 2019.** Each Fund pays 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Class C shares. The fees are calculated daily and paid monthly. Institutional Class shares do not pay 12b-1 fees.

As provided in the investment management agreement, each Fund bears a portion of the cost of certain resources shared with DMC, including the cost of internal personnel of DMC and/or its affiliates that provide legal, tax, and regulatory reporting services to the Funds. These amounts are included on the “Statements of operations” under “Legal fees.” For the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, each Fund was charged for internal legal, tax, and regulatory reporting services provided by DMC and/or its affiliates’ employees as follows:

Delaware Tax-Free        USA Fund	Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	Delaware National High-Yield        Municipal Bond Fund

Delaware Tax-Free        USA Fund	Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	Delaware National High-Yield        Municipal Bond Fund
$18,364	$5,459	$38,172

For the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, DDLP received gross CDSC commissions on redemptions of each Fund’s Class A and Class C shares. These commissions were entirely used to offset upfront commissions previously paid by DDLP to broker/dealers on sales of those shares. The amounts received were as follows:

	Delaware Tax-Free        USA Fund	Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	Delaware National High-Yield        Municipal Bond Fund
Class A	$153	$ —	$54,821
Class C	163	656	1,919

Trustees’ fees include expenses accrued by each Fund for each Trustee’s retainer and meeting fees. Certain officers of DMC, DIFSC, and DDLP are officers and/or Trustees of the Trusts. These officers and Trustees are paid no compensation by the Funds.

Cross trades for the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, were executed by each Fund pursuant to procedures adopted by the Boards designed to ensure compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. Cross

trading is the buying or selling of portfolio securities between funds of investment companies, or between a fund of an investment company and another entity, that are or could be considered affiliates by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common directors/trustees and/or common officers. At their regularly scheduled meetings, the Boards review such transactions for compliance with the procedures adopted by the Boards. Pursuant to these procedures, for the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, the Funds engaged in Rule 17a-7 securities purchases and securities sales, which resulted in realized losses as follows:

3. Investments

For the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, each Fund made purchases and sales of investment securities other than short-term investments as follows:

	Delaware Tax-Free        USA Fund	Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund

Sales	238,361,585	143,756,228	433,154,815

The tax cost of investments includes adjustments to net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) which may not necessarily be final tax cost basis adjustments, but approximate the tax basis unrealized gains and losses that may be realized and distributed to shareholders. At Aug. 31, 2019, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments for federal income tax purposes for each Fund were as follows:

	Delaware Tax-Free   USA Fund			Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund			Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund
Cost of investments		$	577,209,948		$	499,466,540		$	1,322,173,100

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

Level 1 –	Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. (Examples: equity securities, open-end investment companies, futures contracts, and exchange-traded options contracts)
Level 2 –	Other observable inputs, including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs. (Examples: debt securities, government securities, swap contracts, foreign currency exchange contracts, foreign securities utilizing international fair value pricing, broker-quoted securities, and fair valued securities)
Level 3 –	Significant unobservable inputs, including each Fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments. (Examples: broker-quoted securities and fair valued securities)

Level 3 investments are valued using significant unobservable inputs. Each Fund may also use an income-based valuation approach in which the anticipated future cash flows of the investment are discounted to calculate fair value. Discounts may also be applied due to the nature or duration of any restrictions on the disposition of the investments. Valuations may also be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity, and industry. The derived value of a Level 3 investment may not represent the value which is received upon disposition and this could impact the results of operations.

112

The following tables summarize the valuation of each Fund’s investments by fair value hierarchy levels as of Aug. 31, 2019:

	Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund
	Level 2
Securities
Assets:
Municipal Bonds		$623,082,189

Municipal Bonds		$1,441,700,366

During the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, there were no transfers between Level 1 investments, Level 2 investments, or Level 3 investments that had a significant impact to each Fund. Each Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels based on fair value at the beginning of the reporting period.

A reconciliation of Level 3 investments is presented when a Fund has a significant amount of Level 3 investments at the beginning, interim, or end of the period in relation to each Fund’s net assets. During the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, there were no Level 3 investments.

4. Dividend and Distribution Information

Income and long-term capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from US GAAP. Additionally, distributions from net short-term gains on sales of investment securities are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. The tax character of dividends and distributions paid during the years ended Aug. 31, 2019 and 2018 was as follows:

	Delaware Tax-Free     USA Fund			Delaware Tax-Free     USA Intermediate Fund			Delaware National High-Yield     Municipal Bond Fund
Year ended 8/31/19
Tax-exempt income		$	19,673,037		$	16,667,720		$	56,547,428
Ordinary income			81,501			—			21,340
Long-term capital gains			145,750			—			—
Total		$	19,900,288		$	16,667,720		$	56,568,768
Year ended 8/31/18

Total		$	20,085,601		$	17,509,720		$	54,398,634

5. Components of Net Assets on a Tax Basis

As of Aug. 31, 2019, the components of net assets on a tax basis were as follows:

	Delaware Tax-Free     USA Fund				Delaware Tax-Free     USA Intermediate Fund				Delaware National High-Yield     Municipal Bond Fund
Shares of beneficial interest		$	571,628,110			$	507,685,940			$	1,335,212,255
Undistributed tax-exempt income			468,830				358,539				1,427,496
Undistributed long-term capital gains			1,030,177				—				—
Distributions payable			(483,553	)			(391,650	)			(1,431,598	)
Capital loss carryforwards			—				(1,838,007	)			(13,029,258	)
Unrealized appreciation of investments			49,672,241				40,579,961				119,527,266
Net assets		$	622,315,805			$	546,394,783			$	1,441,706,161

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

114

For federal income tax purposes, capital loss carryforwards may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. At Aug. 31, 2019, the Funds utilized capital loss carryforwards as follows:

	Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund		Delaware National  High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund
Capital loss carryforwards utilized		$1,077,571		$2,894,196

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, net capital losses recognized for tax years beginning after Dec. 22, 2010 may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term and/or long-term losses. At Aug. 31, 2019, capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains were as follows:

	Loss carryforward character
	Short-term		Long-term		Total
Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	$	1,838,007	$	—	$	1,838,007
Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund		11,623,420		1,405,838		13,029,258

At Aug. 31, 2019, there were no capital loss carryforwards for Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund.

7. Line of Credit

Each Fund, along with certain other funds in the Delaware Funds (Participants), was a participant in a revolving line of credit intended to be used for temporary or emergency purposes as an additional source of liquidity to fund redemptions of investor shares. The revolving line of credit available was reduced from $155,000,000 to $130,000,000 on Sept. 6, 2018. Under the agreement, the Participants were charged an annual commitment fee of 0.15%, which was allocated across the Participants based on a weighted average of the respective net assets of each Participant. The Participants were permitted to borrow up to a maximum of one-third of their net assets under the agreement. Each Participant was individually, and not jointly, liable for its particular advances, if any, under the line of credit. The line of credit available under the agreement expired on Nov. 5, 2018.

On Nov. 5, 2018, the Participants entered into an amendment to the agreement for a $190,000,000 revolving line of credit. The revolving line of credit available was increased to $220,000,000 on

7. Line of Credit (continued)

Nov. 29, 2018. The revolving line of credit is to be used as described on the previous page and operates in substantially the same manner as the original agreement. The line of credit available under the agreement expires on Nov. 4, 2019.

The Funds had no amounts outstanding as of Aug. 31, 2019, or at any time during the year then ended.

8. Securities Lending

Delaware Tax-Free USA intermediate Fund, along with other funds in the Delaware Funds, may lend its securities pursuant to a security lending agreement (Lending Agreement) with The Bank of New York Mellon (BNY Mellon). At the time a security is loaned, the borrower must post collateral equal to the required percentage of the market value of the loaned security, including any accrued interest. The required percentage is: (1) 102% with respect to US securities and foreign securities that are denominated and payable in US dollars; and (2) 105% with respect to foreign securities. With respect to each loan, if on any business day, the aggregate market value of securities collateral plus cash collateral held is less than the aggregate market value of the securities which are the subject of such loan, the borrower will be notified to provide additional collateral by the end of the following business day, which, together with the collateral already held, will be not less than the applicable initial collateral requirements for such security loan. If the aggregate market value of securities collateral and cash collateral held with respect to a security loan exceeds the applicable initial collateral requirement, upon the request of the borrower, BNY Mellon must return enough collateral to the borrower by the end of the following business day to reduce the value of the remaining collateral to the applicable initial collateral requirement for such security loan. As a result of the foregoing, the value of the collateral held with respect to a loaned security on any particular day, may be more or less than the value of the security on loan. The collateral percentage with respect to the market value of the loaned security is determined by the security lending agent.

Cash collateral received by each fund of the Trust is generally invested in a series of individual separate accounts, each corresponding to a fund. The investment guidelines permit each separate account to hold certain securities that would be considered eligible securities for a money market fund. Cash collateral received is generally invested in government securities; certain obligations issued by government sponsored enterprises; repurchase agreements collateralized by US Treasury securities; obligations issued by the central government of any Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) country or its agencies, instrumentalities, or establishments; obligations of supranational organizations; commercial paper, notes, bonds, and other debt obligations; certificates of deposit, time deposits, and other bank obligations; and asset-backed securities. The Fund can also accept US government securities and letters of credit (non-cash collateral) in connection with securities loans.

In the event of default or bankruptcy by the lending agent, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. In the event the borrower fails to return loaned securities and the collateral received is insufficient to cover the value of the loaned securities and provided such collateral shortfall is not the result of investment losses, the lending agent has agreed to pay the amount of the shortfall to the Fund or, at the discretion of the lending agent, replace the loaned securities. The Fund continues to record dividends or interest, as applicable, on the securities loaned and is subject to

118

changes in value of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan. The Fund has the right under the Lending Agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand. With respect to security loans collateralized by non-cash collateral, the Fund receives loan premiums paid by the borrower. With respect to security loans collateralized by cash collateral, the earnings from the collateral investments are shared among the Fund, the security lending agent, and the borrower. The Fund records security lending income net of allocations to the security lending agent and the borrower.

The Fund may incur investment losses as a result of investing securities lending collateral. This could occur if an investment in the collateral investment account defaulted or became impaired. Under those circumstances, the value of the Fund’s cash collateral account may be less than the amount the Fund would be required to return to the borrowers of the securities and the Fund would be required to make up for this shortfall.

During the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund had no securities out on loan. For the year ended Aug. 31, 2019, Delaware Tax-Fee USA Fund and Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund were not included in the Lending Agreement.

9. Geographic, Credit, and Market Risks

When interest rates rise, fixed income securities (i.e. debt obligations) generally will decline in value. These declines in value are greater for fixed income securities with longer maturities or durations.

The Funds concentrate their investments in securities issued by municipalities, and may be subject to geographic concentration risk. In addition, the Funds have the flexibility to invest in issuers in US territories and possessions such as the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, and Guam, whose bonds are also free of federal and individual state income taxes.

The value of the Funds’ investments may be adversely affected by new legislation within the US states or territories, regional or local economic conditions, and differing levels of supply and demand for municipal bonds. Many municipalities insure repayment for their obligations. Although bond insurance reduces the risk of loss due to default by an issuer, such bonds remain subject to the risk that value may fluctuate for other reasons and there is no certainty that the insurance company will meet its obligations. A real or perceived decline in creditworthiness of a bond insurer can have an adverse impact on the value of insured bonds held in each Fund. At Aug. 31, 2019, the percentage of each Fund’s net assets insured by bond issuers are listed on the next page and these securities have been identified on the “Schedules of investments.”

As of Aug. 31, 2019, Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund invested in municipal bonds issued by the states of California, New York, and Texas, which constituted approximately 14.14%, 11.61%, and 12.74%, respectively, of the Fund’s net assets. As of Aug. 31, 2019, Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund invested in municipal bonds issued by the states of California and New York, which constituted approximately 15.32% and 16.27%, respectively, of the Fund’s net assets. As of Aug. 31, 2019, Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund invested in municipal bonds issued by the state of California which constituted approximately 15.37% of the Fund’s net assets. These investments could make each Fund more sensitive to economic conditions in those states than other more geographically diversified national municipal income funds.

Each Fund invests a portion of its assets in high yield fixed income securities, which are securities rated lower than BBB- by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (S&P), lower than Baa3 by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (Moody’s), or similarly rated by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Investments in these higher-yielding securities are generally accompanied by a greater degree of credit risk than higher-rated securities. Additionally, lower-rated securities may be more susceptible to adverse economic and competitive industry conditions than investment grade securities.

Each Fund invests in certain obligations that may have liquidity protection designed to ensure that the receipt of payments due on the underlying security is timely. Such protection may be provided through guarantees, insurance policies, or letters of credit obtained by the issuer or sponsor through third parties, through various means of structuring the transaction or through a combination of such approaches. Each Fund will not pay any additional fees for such credit support, although the existence of credit support may increase the price of a security.

Each Fund may invest in advance refunded bonds, escrow secured bonds, or defeased bonds. Under current federal tax laws and regulations, state and local government borrowers are permitted to refinance outstanding bonds by issuing new bonds. The issuer refinances the outstanding debt to either reduce interest costs or to remove or alter restrictive covenants imposed by the bonds being refinanced. A refunding transaction where the municipal securities are being refunded within 90 days from the

120

issuance of the refunding issue is known as a “current refunding.” “Advance refunded bonds” are bonds in which the refunded bond issue remains outstanding for more than 90 days following the issuance of the refunding issue. In an advance refunding, the issuer will use the proceeds of a new bond issue to purchase high grade interest-bearing debt securities, which are then deposited in an irrevocable escrow account held by an escrow agent to secure all future payments of principal and interest and bond premium of the advance refunded bond. Bonds are “escrowed to maturity” when the proceeds of the refunding issue are deposited in an escrow account for investment sufficient to pay all of the principal and interest on the original interest payment and maturity dates.

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

Each Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities, which may include securities with contractual restrictions on resale, securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other securities which may not be readily marketable. The relative illiquidity of these securities may impair each Fund from disposing of them in a timely manner and at a fair price when it is necessary or desirable to do so. While maintaining oversight, the Boards have delegated to DMC, the day-to-day functions of determining whether individual securities are liquid for purposes of each Fund’s limitation on investments in illiquid securities. Securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, which are determined to be liquid, are not subject to each Fund’s 15% limit on investments in illiquid securities. Rule 144A securities held by each Fund have been identified on the “Schedules of investments.” Restricted securities are valued pursuant to the security valuation procedures described in Note 1.

10. Contractual Obligations

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

11. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2017, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU), ASU 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities which amends the amortization period for certain callable debt securities purchased at a premium, shortening such period to the earliest call date. The ASU 2017-08 does not require any accounting change for debt securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The ASU 2017-08 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those

fiscal years, beginning after Dec. 15, 2018. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued an ASU 2018-13, which changes certain fair value measurement disclosure requirements. The ASU 2018-13, in addition to other modifications and additions, removes the requirement to disclose the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for the timing of transfers between levels and the valuation process for Level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after Dec. 15, 2019. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.

In August 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) adopted amendments to Regulation S-X to update and simplify the disclosure requirements for registered investment companies by eliminating requirements that are redundant or duplicative of US GAAP requirements or other SEC disclosure requirements. The new amendments require the presentation of the total, rather than the components, of distributable earnings on the “Statements of assets and liabilities” and the total, rather than the components, of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains on the “Statements of changes in net assets.” The amendments also removed the requirement for the parenthetical disclosure of undistributed net investment income on the “Statements of changes in net assets” and certain tax adjustments that were reflected in the “Notes to financial statements.” All of these have been reflected in the Funds’ financial statements.

12. Subsequent Events

Management has determined that no material events or transactions occurred subsequent to Aug. 31, 2019, that would require recognition or disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.

Report of independent

registered public accounting firm

To the Board of Trustees of Delaware Group^® Tax-Free Fund and Voyageur Mutual Funds and Shareholders of Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund, Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund and Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund, Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund (constituting Delaware Group^® Tax Free Fund) and Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund (one of the funds constituting Voyageur Mutual Funds) (hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of August 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended August 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended August 31, 2019 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as of August 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended August 31, 2019 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 August 31, 2019 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.

Tax Information

The information set forth below is for each Fund’s fiscal year as required by federal income tax laws. Shareholders, however, must report distributions on a calendar year basis for income tax purposes, which may include distributions for portions of two fiscal years of a fund. Accordingly, the information needed by shareholders for income tax purposes will be sent to them in January of each year. Please consult your tax advisor for proper treatment of this information.

All disclosures are based on financial information available as of the date of this annual report and, accordingly are subject to change. For any and all items requiring reporting, it is the intention of each Fund to report the maximum amount permitted under the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder.

For the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 2019, each Fund reports distributions paid during the year as follows:

	(A) Ordinary Income Distributions (Tax Basis)	(B) Tax-Exempt Distributions (Tax Basis)	(C) Long-Term Capital Gain Distributions (Tax Basis)	Total Distributions (Tax Basis)
Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund	0.41%	98.86%	0.73%	100.00%
Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund	—	100.00%	—	100.00%
Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund	0.04%	99.96%	—	100.00%

(A), (B) and (C) are based on a percentage of each Fund’s total distributions.

Board consideration of Investment Advisory agreements for Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund, Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund, and Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund at a meeting held on August 21-22, 2019

At a meeting held on Aug. 21-22, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including a majority of disinterested or independent Trustees, approved the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements for Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund, Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund, and Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund (each, a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”). In making its decision, the Board considered information furnished at regular quarterly Board meetings, including reports detailing Fund performance, investment strategies, and expenses, as well as information prepared specifically in connection with the renewal of the investment advisory contract. Information furnished specifically in connection with the renewal of the Investment Management Agreement with Delaware Management Company (“DMC”), a series of Macquarie Investment Management Business Trust (“MIMBT”), included materials provided by DMC and its affiliates (collectively, “Macquarie Investment Management”) concerning, among other things, the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the Funds; the costs of such services to the Funds; economies of scale; and the investment manager’s financial condition and profitability. In addition, in connection with the Annual Meeting, materials were provided to the Trustees in May 2019, including reports provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions (“Broadridge”). The Broadridge reports compared each Fund’s investment performance and expenses with those of other comparable mutual funds. The Independent

124

Trustees reviewed and discussed the Broadridge reports with independent legal counsel to the Independent Trustees. In addition to the information noted above, the Board also requested and received information regarding DMC’s policy with respect to advisory fee levels and its breakpoint philosophy; the structure of portfolio manager compensation; comparative client fee information; and any constraints or limitations on the availability of securities for certain investment styles, which had in the past year inhibited, or which were likely in the future to inhibit, the investment manager’s ability to invest fully in accordance with Fund policies.

In considering information relating to the approval of each Fund’s advisory agreement, the Independent Trustees received assistance and advice from and met separately with independent legal counsel to the Independent Trustees and also received assistance and advice from an experienced and knowledgeable independent fund consultant, JDL Consultants, LLC (“JDL”). Although the Board gave attention to all information furnished, the following discussion identifies, under separate headings, the primary factors taken into account by the Board during its contract renewal considerations.

Nature, extent, and quality of services. The Board considered the services provided by DMC to the Funds and their shareholders. In reviewing the nature, extent, and quality of services, the Board considered reports furnished to it throughout the year, which covered matters such as the relative performance of the Funds; compliance of portfolio managers with the investment policies, strategies, and restrictions for the Funds; compliance by DMC and Delaware Distributors, L.P. (together, “Management”) personnel with the Code of Ethics adopted throughout the Delaware Funds^® by Macquarie (“Delaware Funds”); and adherence to fair value pricing procedures as established by the Board. The Board was pleased with the current staffing of DMC and the emphasis placed on research in the investment process. The Board recognized DMC’s receipt of certain favorable industry distinctions during the past several years. The Board gave favorable consideration to DMC’s efforts to control expenses while maintaining service levels committed to Fund matters. The Board also noted the benefits provided to Fund shareholders through (a) each shareholder’s ability to: (i) exchange an investment in one Delaware Fund for the same class of shares in another Delaware Fund without a sales charge, or (ii) reinvest Fund dividends into additional shares of the Fund or into additional shares of other Delaware Funds, and (b) the privilege to combine holdings in other Delaware Funds to obtain a reduced sales charge. The Board was satisfied with the nature, extent, and quality of the overall services provided by DMC.

Investment performance. The Board placed significant emphasis on the investment performance of the Funds in view of the importance of investment performance to shareholders. Although the Board considered performance reports and discussions with portfolio managers at Investment Committee meetings throughout the year, the Board gave particular weight to the Broadridge reports furnished for the Annual Meeting. The Broadridge reports prepared for each Fund showed the investment performance of its Class A shares in comparison to a group of similar funds as selected by Broadridge (the “Performance Universe”). A fund with the best performance ranked first, and a fund with the poorest performance ranked last. The highest/best performing 25% of funds in the Performance Universe make up the first quartile; the next 25%, the second quartile; the next 25%, the third quartile; and the poorest/worst performing 25% of funds in the Performance Universe make up the fourth quartile. Comparative annualized performance for each Fund was shown for the past 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year

periods, to the extent applicable, ended Jan. 31, 2019. The Board’s objective is that each Fund’s performance for the 1-, 3-, and 5-year periods be at or above the median of its Performance Universe.

Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund – The Performance Universe for the Fund consisted of the Fund and all retail and institutional general and insured municipal debt funds as selected by Broadridge. The Broadridge report comparison showed that the Fund’s total return for the 1-year period was in the third quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods was in the second quartile of its Performance Universe. The Board was satisfied with performance.

Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund – The Performance Universe for the Fund consisted of the Fund and all retail and institutional intermediate municipal debt funds as selected by Broadridge. The Broadridge report comparison showed that the Fund’s total return for the 1-year period was in the third quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods was in the second quartile of its Performance Universe. The Board was satisfied with performance.

Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund – The Performance Universe for the Fund consisted of the Fund and all retail and institutional high yield municipal debt funds as selected by Broadridge. The Broadridge report comparison showed that the Fund’s total return for the 1-year period was in the fourth quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 3- and 5-year periods was in the second quartile of its Performance Universe and the Fund’s total return for the 10-year period was in the first quartile of its Performance Universe. The Board observed that the Fund’s performance results were mixed but tended toward median, which was acceptable.

Comparative expenses. The Board considered expense data for the Delaware Funds. Management provided the Board with information on pricing levels and fee structures for each Fund as of its most recently completed fiscal year. The Board also focused on the comparative analysis of effective management fees and total expense ratios of each Fund versus effective management fees and total expense ratios of a group of similar funds as selected by Broadridge (the “Expense Group”). In reviewing comparative costs, each Fund’s contractual management fee and the actual management fee incurred by the Fund were compared with the contractual management fees (assuming all funds in the Expense Group were similar in size to the Fund) and actual management fees (as reported by each fund) within the Expense Group, taking into account any applicable breakpoints and fee waivers. Each Fund’s total expenses were also compared with those of its Expense Group. The Broadridge total expenses, for comparative consistency, were shown by Broadridge for Class A shares and comparative total expenses including 12b-1 and non-12b-1 service fees. The Board’s objective is for each Fund’s total expense ratio to be competitive with those of the peer funds within its Expense Group.

Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund – The expense comparisons for the Fund showed that its actual management fee was in the quartile with the lowest expenses of its Expense Group and its total expenses were in the quartile with the second lowest expenses of its Expense Group. The Board was

126

satisfied with the management fee and total expenses of the Fund in comparison to those of its Expense Group as shown in the Broadridge report.

Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund – The expense comparisons for the Fund showed that its actual management fee and total expenses were in the quartile with the second lowest expenses of its Expense Group. The Board was satisfied with the management fee and total expenses of the Fund in comparison to those of its Expense Group as shown in the Broadridge report.

Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund – The expense comparisons for the Fund showed that its actual management fee was in the quartile with the lowest expenses of its Expense Group and its total expenses were in the quartile with the second highest expenses of its Expense Group. The Board gave favorable consideration to the Fund’s management fee but noted that the Fund’s total expenses were not in line with the Board’s objective. In evaluating the total expenses, the Board considered fee waivers in place through December 2019 and various initiatives implemented by Management, such as the negotiation of lower fees for fund accounting, fund accounting oversight, and custody services, which had created an opportunity for a further reduction in expenses. The Board was satisfied with Management’s efforts to improve the Fund’s total expense ratio and to bring it in line with the Board’s objective.

Management profitability. The Board considered the level of profits realized by DMC in connection with the operation of the Funds. In this respect, the Board reviewed the Investment Management Profitability Analysis that addressed the overall profitability of DMC’s business in providing management and other services to each of the individual funds and the Delaware Funds as a whole. Specific attention was given to the methodology used by DMC in allocating costs for the purpose of determining profitability. Management stated that the level of profits of DMC, to a certain extent, reflects recent operational cost savings and efficiencies initiated by DMC. The Board considered DMC’s efforts to improve services provided to Fund shareholders and to meet additional regulatory and compliance requirements resulting from recent industry-wide Securities and Exchange Commission initiatives. The Board also considered the extent to which DMC might derive ancillary benefits from fund operations, including the potential for procuring additional business as a result of the prestige and visibility associated with its role as service provider to the Delaware Funds and the benefits from allocation of fund brokerage to improve trading efficiencies. As part of its work, the Board also reviewed a report prepared by JDL regarding MIMBT profitability as compared to certain peer fund complexes and the Independent Trustees discussed with JDL personnel regarding DMC’s profitability in such context. The Board found that the management fees were reasonable in light of the services rendered and the level of profitability of DMC.

Economies of scale. The Trustees considered whether economies of scale are realized by DMC as each Fund’s assets increase and the extent to which any economies of scale are reflected in the level of management fees charged. The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s advisory fee pricing and structure, approved by the Board and shareholders, which includes breakpoints, and which applies to most funds in the Delaware Funds complex. Breakpoints in the advisory fee occur when the advisory fee rate is reduced on assets in excess of specified levels. Breakpoints result in a lower advisory fee than would otherwise be the case in the absence of breakpoints, when the asset levels specified in the breakpoints are exceeded. The Board noted that, as of March 31, 2019, each of Delaware Tax-Free USA Fund’s and Delaware Tax-Free USA Intermediate Fund’s assets exceeded the first breakpoint level. The Board also

noted that, as of March 31, 2019, Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund’s assets exceeded the second breakpoint level. The Board believed that, given the extent to which economies of scale might be realized by DMC and its affiliates, the schedule of fees under the Investment Management Agreement provides a sharing of benefits with the Funds and their shareholders.
