LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

 

LOGO

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present you with the 2015 GuideStone Funds Annual Report. This report reflects our unwavering commitment to integrity in financial reporting so you may stay fully informed of your investments. We trust that you will find this information valuable when making investment decisions.

In 2015, GuideStone Funds was recognized for the fourth consecutive year by the Lipper Fund Awards. The Extended-Duration Bond Fund was recognized as the Best Fund Over 3 Years, and the Best Fund Over 5 Years in the Corporate Debt A-Rated Funds category for the fund’s risk-adjusted total return, ending November 30, 2014. The Extended-Duration Bond Fund won in the same categories the previous year. In 2012, the entire GuideStone Funds family was honored with Lipper’s Best Overall Small Fund Group in the U.S. over the 3-year period ending November 30, 2011, making it the first Christian-screened mutual fund family to receive this prestigious honor. In 2013, the MyDestination 2025 Fund was ranked No. 1 for its performance over the 3-year period ending November 30, 2012.

As previously communicated, on November 20 the Asset Allocation Funds I Series were closed and all assets were reorganized into the Institutional Share Class of the Asset Allocation Funds. The I Series Funds — the Conservative Allocation Fund I, Balanced Allocation Fund I, Growth Allocation Fund I and the Aggressive Allocation Fund I — were technically four stand-alone funds with an Institutional Share Class launched in 2003. During 2015, changes were made that eliminated any difference between the underlying investments of the Asset Allocation Funds I Series and the Asset Allocation Investor Share Class; therefore, the need to maintain four stand-alone I Series funds no longer existed.

Our affected investors experienced no fee change, nor did they incur a taxable event as a result of the reorganization. Additionally, no commission or trading costs from the reorganization were generated. This gives GuideStone a single set of Asset Allocation Funds with a multiple-class structure, similar to other funds in the GuideStone Funds family.

We invite you to learn more about the continued success of GuideStone Funds and the various investment options available by visiting our website, GuideStoneFunds.com/Disclosures, or contacting us at 1-888-GS-FUNDS (1-888-473-8637). Thank you for choosing to invest in GuideStone Funds.

Sincerely,

FROM THE CHIEF INVESTMENT OFFICER

 

LOGO   The calendar year-end serves as a time for everyone to make New Year’s resolutions and establish new goals. Related to investing, it serves as an opportunity to pause and reflect on what occurred over the previous 12 months while also projecting what will unfold in the upcoming year. Entering into 2015, there was cautious optimism but major questions existed as related to the sustainability of the U.S. economy, corresponding actions by the Federal Reserve (the “U.S. central bank” or the “Fed”), global monetary policy, China’s economy (and its position as a global economic engine) and demand/supply imbalances in commodities. In summary, most of the concern was over the health of the global economy and the ability of the United States and China to lead such growth. Let’s quickly review how these issues played out in 2015.
Matt L. Peden, CFA  

 

  •  

The U.S. economy continued to improve at a moderate pace, with real GDP coming in at roughly 2.0%. A key factor benefiting the U.S. economy included a healthier consumer as unemployment rates fell to 5.00% during the year and consumer confidence and housing trended positive. The domestic economy was also supported by very accommodative monetary policy and low oil prices. Amidst the economic growth, inflation remained somewhat at bay due to modest wage gains, global deflationary pressures, low oil and energy prices and cheaper imports due to a strengthening U.S. dollar.

 

  •  

A major theme throughout 2015 was when, not if, the Fed was going to “lift off “ and reverse course from its zero interest rate policy. Throughout the year, market and economic pundits were debating and forecasting when such an action by Chairman Yellen and the Fed would take place. The Fed was in a precarious position of raising rates “too soon” (causing the risk of an economic recession) or “too late” (causing the risk of higher inflation). After seven years of zero interest rate policy, the Fed made the decision to raise the fed funds rate by 0.25% during its December meeting. This anticipated move was the first time the Fed had raised rates in nine years. While the amount of the increase was not material, the actual move itself was a sign that “emergency accommodative monetary policy” was no longer needed. Further rate hikes in 2016 are being priced into the U.S. yield curve with the number of rate hikes largely being dependent on inflationary pressures and conditions surrounding economic growth.

 

  •  

Prior to 2015, global monetary policy had been “in sync”, with major central banks coordinating very accommodative monetary policy. However, the U.S. economy, through more aggressive stimulus, has been improving faster than most of its counterparts. As a result, the anticipation of a divergence in monetary policies between the United States and other developed market central banks arose, contributing to the market uncertainty. As stated, the U.S. central bank raised rates in December while most other central banks (including the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan) maintained very accommodative monetary policies, including quantitative easing. The relative improvement in the U.S. economy, and relatively higher U.S. interest rates, led to a material appreciation in the U.S. dollar versus most currencies during the year. The appreciation of the U.S. dollar made imports less expensive for U.S. consumers, but provided a headwind for U.S. exporters and the performance of non-U.S. denominated investments.

 

  •  

The health of China’s economy remained in the headlines. Global economic growth has been reliant on both the United States and China for the past decade. China has a large impact on commodity prices, surrounding Pacific-rim economies and other emerging markets. Certain economic indicators, including low commodity prices and an August currency devaluation, made the market “question” whether or not China was actually growing at its annual stated target of about 7.00%. Other China questions included its high levels of debt and whether or not it could successfully transition its economy from a “heavy industrial” economy to a “consumer led” economy. While China has a great deal of options to stimulate its economy, the uncertainty in China’s actual growth and leadership effectiveness served as a cloud over the global markets, especially over the last half of the year.

 

  •  

Commodities across the board suffered materially during the year. When investors thought commodity prices could not fall further, they did. Oil, natural gas and base metals fell sharply due to material demand/supply imbalances. Oil prices were under pressure due to slow declines in production (especially in U.S. shale production) coupled with increases in Middle East production. Base metals were negatively impacted over concerns related to China’s economic growth as that country accounts for 40% to 50% of global demand. Having too much supply during times of slow global economic growth has hit commodity prices hard and caused sentiment to free fall. Supply rationalization has begun, but it appears that it will take time to come into equilibrium with actual demand. The good news from low commodity prices is the positive impact it has on consumers’ disposable income which should eventually lead to further consumer demand and economic stimulus.

Given this economic backdrop, greater uncertainty entered the capital markets, which in turn, led to more volatility and investors taking a “risk-off” approach. The calendar year 2015 may be remembered as the “year of no return.” It was a difficult year for investors, even those with well diversified portfolios, to experience positive results as very few areas of the market posted material positive returns. The table below provides an overview of key capital market returns.

U.S. stocks led returns domestically with a modest annual return of 1.38%, extending another year of positive results for the long-running bull equity market. However, given concerns over the U.S. economy entering into the later stages of its growth cycle, the U.S. stock market appeared to be “less healthy” by year end, as the market, as represented by the S&P 500 Index® became very narrow and driven by a few large cap stocks, such as Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Google. The equal weighted S&P 500® Index performed -2.20% for the year, providing evidence that many U.S. stocks generated negative returns. The best-performing sectors in the S&P 500® Index included defensive sectors such as health care and consumer staples, while the worst performers were the cyclical energy and materials sectors. Large-cap stocks outpaced small-cap stocks, while growth stocks outperformed value stocks. The best performing segment of the U.S. market was large-cap growth with the Russell 1000® Growth Index posting an annual return of 5.67%. Stocks of non-U.S. developed markets trailed U.S. stocks and posted an annual return of -0.81%. Slower economic growth and an appreciating U.S. dollar hurt performance. Emerging market stocks were materially hurt, down -14.92% for the year, reflecting downward pressure on commodity prices and slowing emerging economies (especially China) coupled with a rising U.S. dollar.

In addition to stocks, other asset classes struggled during 2015. Bonds surprised on the upside during 2014 but struggled to generate much return in 2015 as the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a proxy for the broad U.S. bond market, generated a modest annual return of 0.55%. Like stocks, higher quality bond sectors generally outpaced riskier ones. Headwinds for bonds during the year included rising interest rates and spread widening (increase in risk premiums). The best performing areas of the bond market were mortgages and U.S. Treasuries while corporates and high yield bonds (below investment grade) generally lagged. The shape of the U.S. Treasury yield curve was largely influenced by expectations of future Fed actions. The year ended with yields on the 10-year U.S. Treasury and the 30-year U.S. Treasury at 2.27% and 3.02%, respectively. With yields at low levels coupled with expectations for future rate hikes by the Fed, near-term prospects for bond returns are below long-term historical norms.

Despite accommodative monetary policies by central banks and historical amounts of liquidity in the markets, inflation expectations remained rather benign during 2015, especially on a global basis. Commodities were negatively impacted the most due to an oversupply (or supply shock) and fears of sluggish economic growth. The MSCI World Commodity Producers – Net Index, a proxy for the natural resource equities, fell 25.62% during the year. Many commodities ended the year at very low levels, but some positives exist for this market segment including cheap valuations, the occurrence of supply rationalization and economic fundamentals indicating prices should be higher.

After reflecting on 2015, what are our thoughts on the upcoming year?

We believe many of the same challenges that were faced in 2015 will persist into 2016, with prospects of higher asset price volatility. Economic growth is projected to muddle through (slow but positive), and asset class returns are forecasted well below historical annual averages for several reasons, including, currently high asset valuations, a slowdown in corporate earnings, low interest rate levels and projected muted economic growth. We must also take into consideration that the current economic expansion and bull equity market are “long in the tooth” coupled with prospects of the Fed implementing further tightening.

As a team, we believe the following factors will have a material impact during 2016 on the global economies, investors’ sentiment and asset class returns:

 

5


Table of Contents
  •  

Divergence in monetary policy between the United States and other major central banks.

 

  •  

Potential for sluggish economic growth outside the United States in major economies such as Europe, Japan and China, as well as commodity export dependent emerging markets nations.

 

  •  

The resulting impact of very low commodity prices, including oil.

 

  •  

Heightened geopolitical risks, including terrorism.

 

  •  

The valuation of the U.S. dollar versus other major currencies.

We continue to encourage investors to ensure their portfolio is well diversified and corresponds with their underlying risk/return profile. Often higher volatility leads to greater temptation to move away from the appropriate long-term asset allocation. Remember, investing is a long-term process and diversification is key. Also, given the prospects for lower absolute returns, it is prudent for investors to review their savings rate. Any ability to increase savings would be beneficial, especially for those nearing retirement.

On behalf of GuideStone Capital Management, LLC, I would like to thank you for your confidence and trust and for the opportunity to manage assets on your behalf. We consider it a privilege to work diligently on your investment portfolio. Wishing you a happy and prosperous year ahead.

S&P 500® Index Returns

The U.S. large cap equity market, as measured by the S&P 500® Index, posted a positive annual return of 1.4%. Although this marks the seventh consecutive year of positive returns for the index, the market was much more volatile and gains were more concentrated than in years past. In fact, if the 10 largest securities by market capitalization are omitted, the index actually suffered a loss for the year.

After producing gains in each of the first two quarters, volatility spiked and the index posted a negative return in the third quarter, as fears about global growth caused a decline in investor confidence. During the quarter, the index suffered a loss of 6.5%, but a robust fourth quarter rally was sufficient to produce a positive full year return.

Only half of the 10 sectors produced a positive return for the year, led by Consumer Discretionary and the traditionally defensive Consumer Staples and Health Care sectors. The continued decline in commodity prices created a material headwind for Energy and Materials stocks, with both sectors suffering significant losses for the year.

Russell 2000® Index Returns

The U.S. small cap equity market, as represented by the Russell 2000®Index, posted a loss of 4.4% during 2015. The index produced a positive return the first half of the year, but then lost 7.7% in the third quarter before gaining some of that loss back in the fourth quarter. The rise in volatility during the third quarter coincided with a decline in investor risk appetite that negatively impacted small cap stocks.

The best performing sectors during the period included Health Care and Technology, while Energy and Materials were the worst performers. The significant decline in oil and other commodity prices was a major headwind for firms in these two sectors.

The Russell 2000® Index measures the performance of the small-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe.

MSCI EAFE (Net) Returns

International developed market equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), fell 0.8% during the year. This index underperformed the U.S. market as a result of slower economic growth, the strength of the U.S. dollar and a greater reliance on trade with the weakening Emerging Markets. Similar to U. S. stocks, the EAFE Index produced a positive return in the first and second quarters, but fell roughly 10% in the third quarter as volatility rose. A positive 5% fourth quarter return was insufficient to produce a gain for the full year.

The best performing regions included Ireland, Denmark and Belgium, while the worst performers included Norway, Singapore and Australia. Commodity price weakness and exposure to China were the key drivers of the poor performance in these countries.

MSCI EM (Net) Returns

International emerging market equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Market Index (Net), declined 14.9% during the year. The combination of falling commodity prices, weakening currencies and the slowdown in China had a dramatic impact on economic growth and equity performance in these markets. The third quarter was the worst period for the index, as it fell more than 17%.

Only two countries, Hungary and Russia, produced a gain for the year. Countries that produced significant losses were those that rely on commodity exports to drive their economies, including Brazil, South Africa and Colombia, as well as those that are dependent on trade with China, such as Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. The worst performer was Greece, which once again was required to restructure its huge debt burden with its creditors.

Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index Returns

The broad U.S. bond market, as measured by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, produced a small gain of 0.6% during 2015. Higher quality and intermediate maturity debt securities were the best performers, while lower quality bonds, especially those issued by Energy firms, experienced material spread widening and significant losses as investors began to question the health of such firms.

The best performing sectors in the index included Financials, Asset-backed securities and Mortgage-backed securities, while bonds issued by Industrial and Utilities firms produced losses for the year.

Following much debate and analysis both inside and outside the Federal Reserve (“Fed”), the members of the Federal Open Market Committee finally voted to raise the target Fed Funds rate by 0.25% to a range of 0.25 - 0.50% at its December meeting. The long awaited beginning of the Fed tightening cycle is an event for which the markets were well positioned, so the impact on financial assets was negligible. Despite the rise in the Fed Funds rate, short term interest rates remain very low and accommodative by historical standards. In addition, the Fed signaled that further rate hikes will be very gradual and will be dependent on sustained economic strength. This marks the first rate hike since 2006, and ends an unprecedented 7-year period of a near zero Fed Funds rate.

 

 

LOGO

The Federal Reserve (“Fed”) is the central bank of the United States. It was created by Congress to provide the nation with a safer, more flexible, and more stable monetary and financial system. The Federal Funds Rate is the interest rate at which depository institutions lend balances at the Fed to other depository institutions overnight. The rate is one tool the Fed can use in their efforts of controlling the supply of money. Changes in the Federal Funds Rate trigger a chain of events that affect other short-term interest rates, foreign exchange rates, long-term interest rates, the amount of money and credit, and, ultimately, a range of economic variables, including employment, output, and prices of goods and services.

U.S. Treasury Yield Curve

Despite some volatility in interest rates during the year, the yield curve ended 2015 in very similar shape as it started the year. Short term rates, from 3 months to 3-years, rose somewhat as result of the Fed Funds rate hike, but the 5-to 10-year portion of the curve was virtually unchanged from the start of the year. During the period, the 10-year Treasury yield fell to as low as 1.65%, and then rose to near 2.50% as investor expectations for inflation and economic growth varied. However, the yield ended 2015 at 2.27%, very close to the same level at which it began the year.

 

LOGO

The Treasury yield curve illustrates the relationship between yields on short-term, intermediate-term and long-term Treasury securities. Normally, the shape of the yield curve is upward sloping with rates increasing from the short end of the curve moving higher to the long end. The short end of the curve is impacted more by monetary policy (demand for money) while inflationary expectations and market forces impact the long end of the curve.

About Your Expenses (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including advisory fees and to the extent applicable, shareholder services fees, as well as other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 attributable to your investment during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the 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 table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

TARGET DATE FUNDS (Unaudited)

The Target Date Funds, or MyDestination Funds®, maintain diversified exposure to all three asset classes of equities, fixed income and real assets.

Contribution to absolute performance from U.S. equities was roughly flat for the MyDestination Funds®. U.S. equities experienced moderate headwinds, with the broader equity market, as measured by the Russell 3000® Index, returning 0.48% for the calendar year 2015. U.S. equity market performance was hampered by a slowdown in earnings growth and the impact of a strong U.S. dollar, which rose more than 8.00% versus the currencies of key trading partners. Small-cap stocks underperformed large-cap stocks with the Russell 2000® Index returning -4.41%. From a sector perspective, performance was positive for five of the nine sectors within the Russell 3000® Index, with consumer staples and health care leading performance among the sectors. The energy and the materials sectors were the largest detractors, down 20.00% and 8.33% respectively, due largely to global oversupply and falling demand from China for several commodities.

Contribution to absolute performance from non-U.S. equity markets was negative for the MyDestination Funds®, with both developed non-U.S. equity markets and emerging markets equities detracting similarly from performance results. Developed non-U.S. equity markets underperformed the U.S. equity markets as the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), a measure of international developed country returns, posted a one-year return of -0.81%. Two main causes for the relative underperformance of the MSCI EAFE (Net) Index were slower economic growth outside the United States and the continued appreciation of the U.S. dollar versus global currencies. The only regions to post positive returns were Japan and Africa/Middle East, while Asia ex-Japan and Europe were the largest detractors. Asia ex-Japan was hit hard by moderating economic growth in China, and the region fell over 9.00% in the index for the year. From a sector perspective, utilities and health care outperformed with high single digit returns. The energy and the materials sectors were the largest detractors, falling 18.00% and 15.51%, respectively. Emerging markets equities were materially negative for the year, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index falling 14.92%. Emerging markets experienced a difficult year due to the headwinds of slower Chinese growth, weak commodity prices and a strong U.S. dollar.

Contribution to absolute performance from fixed income was a slight detraction for the MyDestination Funds®, except for the more conservatively positioned MyDestination 2005 Fund. The U.S. fixed income markets had mixed returns as the yield curve flattened over the year given the short end of the curve rose more than the long end. This was a result of the Fed telegraphing the first federal funds rate hike of this cycle and executing it in December. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a proxy for the broad U.S. domestic bond market, generated an annual return of 0.55%. Non-U.S. fixed income underperformed domestic, particularly due to U.S. dollar strength weighing heavily on returns, as the Barclays Global Aggregate ex-U.S. Index posted a -5.30% annual return. Credit spreads in high yield bonds widened, which led to the first annual decline in the Barclays U.S. High Yield Corporate Bond Index since 2008. In particular, falling oil prices caused acute price declines in the energy sector, which comprised about 15.00% of the index, dragging down total returns and causing a contagion effect that negatively impacted the rest of the high yield bond market.

Real assets detracted from absolute performance within the MyDestination Funds®, although the returns of the various underlying strategies varied significantly for the year. Key drivers of performance were subdued inflation and inflation expectations and falling commodity prices – all of which put downward pressure on most real assets strategies. The primary detractors to absolute performance for the MyDestination Funds® were negative performance across global natural resource equities and commodities. Global natural resource equities, as measured by the MSCI World Commodity Producers Index, fell 25.62% in 2015. The Bloomberg Commodity Index, a broad-based measure of returns for a diversified basket of commodity futures, posted a 24.66% decline for 2015. Commodity prices continued to have strong headwinds throughout 2015, as oversupply issues and the slowdown in China’s economic growth weighed heavily on the space.

MyDestination 2005 Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund, through investments predominantly in the underlying GuideStone Funds Select Funds, combined a greater percentage of exposure to fixed income securities with a smaller percentage allocated to equity and real assets securities. The Fund followed an allocation glide path designed to become more conservative over time, and the December 31, 2015 targeted allocations were approximately 53.00% Fixed Income Select Funds, 21.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds, 8.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds and 18.00% Real Assets Select Funds.

As a fund of funds, the Fund’s performance was based primarily on the performance of the underlying Select Funds. The Fund generated a return of -1.63% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015. Contribution to absolute performance from the U.S. Equity Select Funds was roughly flat. The Defensive Market Strategies Fund was the largest U.S. Equity Select Fund contributor to absolute performance, benefiting from increased volatility and solid alpha generation. Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds exposure, including both developed and emerging markets, detracted from performance and was impacted by slower global growth, a strengthening U.S. dollar and poor performance from commodity sensitive emerging markets. The Fund’s Fixed Income Select Funds allocation slightly added to investment returns, as the Low-Duration Bond Fund was the largest contributor overall. Real assets exposure was the primary driver of negative absolute performance, led by the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and the Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund, as each fell significantly for the year. As of December 2015, the Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund was no longer held by the Fund.

The Fund underperformed its composite benchmark in 2015 (-1.63% versus -0.82%). The largest detractors to relative underperformance were the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and the Flexible Income Fund. The largest positive contributor to relative performance was the Defensive Market Strategies Fund.

Certain derivatives were utilized to provide market exposure for the cash positions held in the Fund. These derivative positions primarily included stock index futures and fixed income futures. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight negative impact on Fund performance for the year.

The Fund attempted to achieve its objective by investing predominantly in the GuideStone Funds Select Funds. The Fund is managed to a retirement date (“target date”) by adjusting the percentage of fixed income securities and equity securities to become more conservative each year until reaching the retirement year and then approximately 12 years thereafter. The target date in the name of the Fund is the approximate date when an investor plans to start withdrawing money. This Fund may be suitable for investors who want a simplified “one fund” retirement solution, are willing to pay slightly higher fees to get a diversified mix of investments that becomes more conservative over time and retired at an age that was near the year 2005. The Fund’s value will fluctuate due to changes in interest rates. There is a risk that the issuer of a fixed income investment may fail to pay interest or even principal due in a timely manner or at all. The Fund’s value will fluctuate due to business developments concerning a particular issuer, industry or country, as well as general market and economic conditions. The Fund is subject to risks presented by investments in foreign issuers, and changes in currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar may negatively affect the values of foreign investments held by the Select Funds. By investing in this Fund, you will incur the expenses of the Fund, in addition to those of the underlying Select Funds. The principal risks of the Fund will change depending on the asset mix of the Select Funds in which it invests. You may directly invest in the Select Funds. The Fund’s value will go up and down in response to changes in the share prices of the investments that it owns. The amount invested in the Fund is not guaranteed to increase, is not guaranteed against loss nor is the amount of the original investment guaranteed at the target date. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

The construction of the composite index corresponds to the target percentage allocations to the underlying asset classes as represented by the Fund’s investment in the Select Funds. As the target percentage allocations to the underlying investments change according to the MyDestination Funds® glide path, the target percentage allocations to the composite index also change.

MyDestination 2015 Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund, through investments predominantly in the underlying GuideStone Funds Select Funds, combined a greater percentage of exposure to equity securities with a smaller percentage allocated to fixed income and real assets securities. The Fund followed an allocation glide path designed to become more conservative over time, and the December 31, 2015 targeted allocations were approximately 32.00% Fixed Income Select Funds, 37.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds, 13.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds and 18.00% Real Assets Select Funds.

As a fund of funds, the Fund’s performance was primarily based on the performance of the underlying Select Funds.

MyDestination 2025 Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund, through investments predominantly in the underlying GuideStone Funds Select Funds, combined a greater percentage of exposure to equity securities with smaller percentages allocated to fixed income and real assets securities. The Fund followed an allocation glide path designed to become more conservative over time, and the December 31, 2015 targeted allocations were approximately 25.00% Fixed Income Select Funds, 45.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds, 18.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds and 12.00% Real Assets Select Funds.

As a fund of funds, the Fund’s performance was based primarily on the performance of the underlying Select Funds. The Fund generated a return of -2.91% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015. Contribution to absolute performance from the U.S. Equity Select Funds was roughly flat. The Growth Equity Fund and the Defensive Market Strategies Fund were the largest contributors to absolute performance. Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds exposure, including both developed and emerging markets, detracted from performance and was impacted by slower global growth, a strengthening U.S. dollar and poor performance from commodity sensitive emerging markets. The Fund’s Fixed Income Select Funds allocation detracted from investment returns, with the Global Bond Fund as the largest detractor. Real assets exposure was the primary driver of negative absolute performance, led by the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and the Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund, as each fell significantly for the year. As of December 2015, the Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund was no longer held by the Fund.

The Fund underperformed its composite benchmark in 2015 (-2.91% versus -1.81%). The largest detractors to relative underperformance were the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and the Global Bond Fund. The largest positive contributor to relative performance was the Defensive Market Strategies Fund.

Certain derivatives were utilized to provide market exposure for the cash positions held in the Fund. These derivative positions primarily included stock index futures and fixed income futures. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight positive impact on Fund performance for the year.

The Fund attempted to achieve its objective predominantly by investing in the GuideStone Funds Select Funds. The Fund is managed to a retirement date (“target date”) by adjusting the percentage of fixed income securities and equity securities to become more conservative each year until reaching the retirement year and then approximately 12 years thereafter. The target date in the name of the Fund is the approximate date when an investor plans to start withdrawing money. This Fund may be suitable for investors who want a simplified “one fund” retirement solution, are willing to pay slightly higher fees to get a diversified mix of investments that becomes more conservative over time and plan to retire at an age that is near the year 2025. The Fund’s value will fluctuate due to changes in interest rates. There is a risk that the issuer of a fixed income investment may fail to pay interest or even principal due in a timely manner or at all. The Fund’s value will fluctuate due to business developments concerning a particular issuer, industry or country, as well as general market and economic conditions. The Fund is subject to risks presented by investments in foreign issuers, and changes in currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar may negatively affect the values of foreign investments held by the Select Funds. By investing in this Fund, you will incur the expenses of the Fund, in addition to those of the underlying Select Funds. The principal risks of the Fund will change depending on the asset mix of the Select Funds in which it invests. You may directly invest in the Select Funds. The Fund’s value will go up and down in response to changes in the share prices of the investments that it owns. The amount invested in the Fund is not guaranteed to increase, is not guaranteed against loss nor is the amount of the original investment guaranteed at the target date. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

MyDestination 2035 Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund, through investments predominantly in the underlying GuideStone Funds Select Funds, combined a high percentage of exposure to equity securities with only modest percentages to fixed income and real assets securities. The Fund followed an allocation glide path designed to become more conservative over time, and the December 31, 2015 targeted allocations were approximately 16.00% Fixed Income Select Funds, 47.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds, 30.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds and 7.00% Real Assets Select Funds.

MyDestination 2045 Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund, through investments predominantly in the underlying GuideStone Funds Select Funds, combined a high percentage of exposure to equity securities with only modest percentages allocated to fixed income and real assets securities. The Fund followed an allocation glide path designed to become more conservative over time, and the December 31, 2015 targeted allocations were approximately 7.00% Fixed Income Select Funds, 52.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds, 34.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds and 7.00% Real Assets Select Funds.

As a fund of funds, the Fund’s performance was based primarily on the performance of the underlying Select Funds. The Fund generated a return of -4.46% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015. Contribution to absolute performance from the U.S. Equity Select Funds was roughly flat. The Growth Equity Fund was the largest contributor to absolute performance, which was offset by declines in the Value Equity Fund and the Small Cap Equity Fund. Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds exposure, including both developed and emerging markets, was a primary driver of negative performance and was impacted by slower global growth, a strengthening U.S. dollar and poor performance from commodity sensitive emerging markets. The Fund’s Fixed Income Select Funds allocation detracted from investment returns, with the Global Bond Fund as the largest detractor. Real assets exposure was another significant driver of negative performance, led by the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and the Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund, as each fell significantly for the year. As of December 2015, the Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund was no longer held by the Fund.

The Fund underperformed its composite benchmark in 2015 (-4.46% versus -2.87%). The largest detractors to relative underperformance were the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund, International Equity Fund and Emerging Markets Equity Fund.

Certain derivatives were utilized to provide market exposure for the cash positions held in the Fund. These derivative positions primarily included stock index futures and fixed income futures. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight positive impact on Fund performance for the year.

The Fund attempted to achieve its objective by investing predominantly in the GuideStone Funds Select Funds. The Fund is managed to a retirement date (“target date”) by adjusting the percentage of fixed income securities and equity securities to become more conservative each year until reaching the retirement year and then approximately 12 years thereafter. The target date in the name of the Fund is the approximate date when an investor plans to start withdrawing money. This Fund may be suitable for investors who want a simplified “one fund” retirement solution, are willing to pay slightly higher fees to get a diversified mix of investments that becomes more conservative over time and plan to retire at an age that is near the year 2045. The Fund’s value will fluctuate due to changes in interest rates. There is a risk that the issuer of a fixed income investment may fail to pay interest or even principal due in a timely manner or at all. The Fund’s value will fluctuate due to business developments concerning a particular issuer, industry or country, as well as general market and economic conditions. The Fund is subject to risks presented by investments in foreign issuers, and changes in currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar may negatively affect the values of foreign investments held by the Select Funds. By investing in this Fund, you will incur the expenses of the Fund, in addition to those of the underlying Select Funds. The principal risks of the Fund will change depending on the asset mix of the Select Funds in which it invests. You may directly invest in the Select Funds. The Fund’s value will go up and down in response to changes in the share prices of the investments that it owns. The amount invested in the Fund is not guaranteed to increase, is not guaranteed against loss nor is the amount of the original investment guaranteed at the target date. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

The graph illustrates the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund since December 29, 2006 (commencement of operations), with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the Fund’s composite benchmark index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

**Represents a composite index as of December 2015, consisting of 0.25% of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, 3.12% of the Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index - Unhedged, 1.56% of the Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield - 2% Issuer Capped Index, 1.56% of the J.P.

The construction of the composite index corresponds to the target percentage allocations to the underlying asset classes as represented by the Fund’s investment in the Select Funds. As the target percentage allocations to the underlying investments change according to the MyDestination Funds® glide path, the target percentage allocations to the composite index also change.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

The Fund, through investments predominantly in the underlying GuideStone Funds Select Funds, combined a high percentage of exposure to equity securities with only modest percentages allocated to fixed income and real assets securities. The Fund followed an allocation glide path designed to become more conservative over time, and the December 31, 2015 targeted allocations were approximately 5.00% Fixed Income Select Funds, 53.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds, 35.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds and 7.00% Real Assets Select Funds.

ASSET ALLOCATION FUNDS (Unaudited)

Contribution to absolute performance from U.S. equities was roughly flat for the Asset Allocation Funds. U.S. equities experienced moderate headwinds, with the broader equity market, as measured by the Russell 3000® Index, returning 0.48% for the calendar year 2015. U.S. equity market performance was hampered by a slowdown in earnings growth and the impact of a strong U.S. dollar, which rose more than 8.00% versus the currencies of key trading partners. Small-cap stocks underperformed large-cap stocks with the Russell 2000® Index returning -4.41%. From a sector perspective, performance was positive for five of the nine sectors within the Russell 3000® Index, with consumer staples and health care leading performance among the sectors. The energy and the materials sectors were the largest detractors, down 20.00% and 8.33%, respectively, due largely to global oversupply and falling demand from China for several commodities.

Contribution to absolute performance from non-U.S. equity markets was negative for the Asset Allocation Funds, with both developed non-U.S. markets and emerging markets equities detracting similarly from performance results. Developed non-U.S. equity markets underperformed the U.S. equity markets as the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), a measure of international developed country returns, posted a one-year return of -0.81%. Two main causes for the relative underperformance of the MSCI EAFE Index were slower economic growth outside the United States and the continued appreciation of the U.S. dollar versus global currencies. The only regions to post positive returns were Japan and Africa/Middle East, while Asia ex-Japan and Europe were the largest detractors. Asia ex-Japan was hit hard by falling economic growth in China, and the region fell over 9.00% in the index for the year. From a sector perspective, utilities and health care outperformed with high single digit returns. The energy and the materials sectors were the largest detractors falling 18.00% and 15.51%, respectively. Emerging markets equities were materially negative for the year, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index falling 14.92%. Emerging markets experienced a difficult year due to the headwinds of slower Chinese growth, weak commodity prices and a strong U.S. dollar.

Contribution to absolute performance from fixed income was a slight detraction for the Asset Allocation Funds, except for the more conservatively positioned Conservative Allocation Fund. The U.S. fixed income markets had mixed returns as the yield curve flattened over the year given the short end of the curve rose more than the long end. This was a result of the Fed telegraphing the first federal funds rate hike of this cycle and executing it in December. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a proxy for the broad U.S. domestic bond market, generated an annual return of 0.55%. Non-U.S. fixed income underperformed domestic, particularly due to U.S. dollar strength weighing heavily on returns, as the Barclays Global Aggregate ex-U.S. Index posted a -5.30% annual return. Credit spreads in high yield bonds widened, which led to the first annual decline in the Barclays U.S. High Yield Corporate Bond Index since 2008. In particular, falling oil prices caused acute price declines in the energy sector, which comprises about 15% of the index, dragging down total returns and causing a contagion effect that negatively impacted the rest of the high yield bond market.

Real assets detracted from absolute performance within the Asset Allocation Funds, although the returns of the various underlying strategies varied significantly for the year. Key drivers of performance were subdued inflation and inflation expectations and falling commodity prices – all of which put downward pressure on most real assets strategies. The primary detractor to absolute performance for the Asset Allocation Funds was negative performance for global natural resources equites. Global natural resources equities, as measured by the MSCI World Commodity Producers Index, fell 25.62% in 2015.

Conservative Allocation Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund, through investments in the underlying GuideStone Funds Select Funds, combined a greater percentage of exposure to fixed income securities with a smaller percentage to equity securities and real assets securities. The Fund had a target of, but was not limited to, an asset allocation of 55.00% Fixed Income Select Funds, 20.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds, 7.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds and 18.00% Real Assets Select Funds.

As a fund of funds, the Fund’s performance was based on the performance of the underlying Select Funds. The Fund generated a return of -1.69% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015, driven primarily by negative absolute performance of the underlying Real Assets Select Funds. Within this asset class, the Fund’s absolute return was most negatively influenced by its exposure to the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund, followed by exposure to the Inflation Protected Bond Fund and Flexible Income Fund. The Fund’s Fixed Income Select Funds allocation added to investment returns, as the Low-Duration Bond Fund contributed positively. Additionally, the U.S. Equity Select Funds allocation positively impacted the Fund’s performance, led by contributions from both the Defensive Market Strategies Fund and Growth Equity Fund.

The Fund underperformed its composite benchmark in 2015 (-1.69% versus -0.88%). Relative underperformance was primarily driven by the allocation to Real Assets Select Funds, with both the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and the Flexible Income Fund detracting the most from relative returns. Lastly, the largest positive contributor to relative performance was the Defensive Market Strategies Fund.

Certain derivatives were utilized to provide market exposure for the cash positions held in the Fund. These derivative positions primarily included stock index futures and fixed income futures. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight positive impact on Fund performance for the year.

The Fund attempted to achieve its objective by investing in the GuideStone Funds Select Funds. By investing in the Fund you will also incur the expenses and risks of the underlying Select Funds. The principal risks of the Fund will change depending on the asset mix of the Select Funds in which it invests. You may directly invest in the Select Funds. The Fund’s value will go up and down in response to changes in the share prices of the investments that it owns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. The Fund may be suitable for investors who have a short- to medium-term investment horizon, possess a relatively low tolerance for risk and want some exposure to the growth potential of the stock market tempered by a larger allocation to short-term, fixed income securities. This Fund is subject to interest rate risk. Meaning, when interest rates rise, the value of the existing bonds decrease and vice versa. Changes in interest rates have a bigger impact on long duration holdings than on short duration holdings. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

Balanced Allocation Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund, through investments in the underlying Select Funds, combined approximately equal percentages to equity securities and fixed income securities in addition to a smaller allocation to real assets securities. The Fund had a target of, but was not limited to, an asset allocation of 41.00% Fixed Income Select Funds, 30.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds, 14.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds and 15.00% Real Assets Select Funds.

As a fund of funds, the Fund’s performance was based on the performance of the underlying Select Funds. The Fund generated a return of -3.43% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015. While all underlying asset classes generated negative performance for the year, exposure to the underlying Real Assets Select Funds, in aggregate, detracted the most from absolute performance, followed by the Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds. The Fund’s absolute return was most negatively influenced by its exposure to the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund, the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and the International Equity Fund. The Fund’s Fixed Income Select Funds allocation detracted from investment returns, as the contribution from all underlying Fixed Income Select Funds was either roughly flat or marginally negative. The U.S. Equity Select Funds allocation provided mixed results with the most positive contributions coming from the Defensive Market Strategies Fund and Growth Equity Fund.

The Fund underperformed its composite benchmark in 2015 (-3.43% versus -1.73%), which was driven mostly by allocations to the Fixed Income Select Funds and Real Assets Select Funds. Within these asset classes, the Global Bond Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund had material impacts on relative underperformance over the period. Additionally, the Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds allocation detracted from relative performance as both the International Equity Fund and Emerging Markets Equity Fund underperformed over the one-year period ended December 31, 2015.

Certain derivatives were utilized to provide market exposure for the cash positions held in the Fund. These derivative positions primarily included stock index futures and fixed income futures. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight positive impact on Fund performance for the year.

The Fund attempted to achieve its objective by investing in the Select Funds. By investing in the Fund you will also incur the expenses and risks of the underlying Select Funds. The principal risks of the Fund will change depending on the asset mix of the Select Funds in which it invests. You may directly invest in the Select Funds. The Fund’s value will go up and down in response to changes in the share prices of the investments that it owns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a medium- to long-term investment horizon, possess a moderate tolerance for risk and seek to participate in the return potential of stocks but want to achieve this result more slowly and with less volatility through a balanced allocation of fixed income and equity investments. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

Growth Allocation Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund, through investments in the underlying Select Funds, combined a greater percentage of exposure to equity securities with a smaller percentage to fixed income securities and real assets securities. The Fund had a target of, but was not limited to, an asset allocation of 25.00% Fixed Income Select Funds, 41.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds, 27.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds and 7.00% Real Assets Select Funds.

As a fund of funds, the Fund’s performance was based on the performance of the underlying Select Funds. The Fund generated a return of -3.83% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015. While all underlying asset classes generated negative performance for the year, exposure to non-U.S. equities detracted the most from performance. The Fund’s absolute return was most negatively influenced by its exposures to the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund, the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and the International Equity Fund. Additionally, the Fund’s Fixed Income Select Funds allocation detracted marginally from investment returns. Contributing positively to absolute performance was the allocation to the Growth Equity Fund, which benefitted from strong security selection.

The Fund underperformed its composite benchmark in 2015 (-3.83% versus -2.42%). While underlying Select Fund holdings detracted from relative performance results across all asset classes, the Fund’s relative performance was most negatively impacted by allocations to the International Equity Fund, the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and the Emerging Markets Equity Fund.

Certain derivatives were utilized to provide market exposure for the cash positions held in the Fund. These derivative positions primarily included stock index futures and fixed income futures. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight positive impact on Fund performance for the year.

The Fund’s value will go up and down in response to changes in the share prices of the investments that it owns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a long-term investment horizon, possess a relatively high tolerance for risk and seek to participate in the return potential of stocks at a slightly lower risk level than an all stock portfolio. Foreign securities may be subject to greater risk than domestic securities due to currency volatility, reduced market liquidity and political and economic instability. Small company stocks are subject to greater risk than large company stocks due to more volatility and less liquidity. This Fund is subject to interest rate risk. Meaning, when interest rates rise, the value of the existing bonds decrease and vice versa. Changes in interest rates have a bigger impact on long duration holdings than on short duration holdings.

Aggressive Allocation Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund, through investments in the underlying Select Funds, combined a greater percentage of exposure to U.S. equity securities with a smaller percentage to non-U.S. equity securities. The Fund had a target of, but was not limited to, an asset allocation of 60.00% U.S. Equity Select Funds and 40.00% Non-U.S. Equity Select Funds.

As a fund of funds, its performance was based on the performance of the underlying Select Funds. The Fund generated a return of -2.39% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015. While exposure to the U.S. Equity Select Funds, in aggregate, generated positive performance, exposure to the non-U.S. Equity Select Funds detracted significantly from performance and led to a negative absolute return for the Fund in 2015. The largest detractors to absolute performance were the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and the Value Equity Fund. The largest contributor to absolute performance was the Growth Equity Fund, as U.S. growth stocks significantly outperformed the overall U.S. equity market.

The Fund underperformed its composite benchmark in 2015 (-2.39% versus -1.96%). The Fund’s relative performance was most negatively impacted by allocations to the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and the International Equity Fund.

Certain derivatives were utilized to provide market exposure for the cash positions held in the Fund. These derivative positions primarily included stock index futures. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight positive impact on Fund performance for the year.

The Fund attempted to achieve its objective by investing in the Select Funds. By investing in the Fund you will also incur the expenses and risks of the underlying Select Funds. The principal risks of the Fund will change depending on the asset mix of the Select Funds in which it invests. You may directly invest in the Select Funds. The Fund’s value will go up and down in response to changes in the share prices of the investments that it owns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a long-term investment horizon, possess a relatively high tolerance for risk and want to diversify by adding an aggressive investment option that combines U.S. and international stocks. Foreign securities may be subject to greater risk than domestic securities due to currency volatility, reduced market liquidity and political and economic instability. Small company stocks are subject to greater risk than large company stocks due to more volatility and less liquidity. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund for the 10-year period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2015, with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the Fund’s weighted composite benchmark index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

**Represents a composite index as of December 2015, consisting of the Russell 3000® Index and the MSCI ACWI (All Country World Index) Ex-U.S. Index, weighted 60% and 40%, respectively.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

FIXED INCOME SELECT FUNDS (Unaudited)

2015 – A Review

The Federal Reserve (“Fed”) raised rates in December 2015 after keeping short-term interest rates near zero along with record high levels of quantitative easing for seven years. Motivated by signs that the U.S. economy no longer requires such emergency measures of support, the Fed increased the range for the over-night lending rate by 0.25%, marking the first rate increase in nine years. By raising rates, the Fed began the process of dismantling the safety net to which investors had grown accustomed since the financial crisis.

The increase in rates was widely anticipated and investors’ response to the increase was generally calm. Yields rose across the curve in anticipation of and immediately following the announcement with the largest impact being felt in bonds with maturities of two-years to five-years. The two-year U.S. Treasury Note yield ended the year at 1.05%, the first year-end above 1.00% since 2009. Yields on longer maturity bonds, such as the 10-year U.S. Treasury Note, did not experience much movement as they tend to be driven more by inflation concerns and economic expectations. The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury Bond ended the year at 2.27% for an increase of only 0.10% from the end of the previous year.

Importantly, the divergence in monetary policy of the major central banks, discussed in the 2014 review, continued in 2015. After multiple years of coordinated efforts among central banks to spur economic growth through low interest rates and accommodative monetary policies, the divergence of central bank policies grew wider in 2015. In the same month that the Fed announced a rate hike, the European Central Bank announced an increase in its quantitative easing measures to generate growth and boost inflation. As a result of these divergent actions, the yield on the 2-year U.S. Treasury Note rose, the yield on its German counterpart slid further into negative territory and ended the year at -0.35%.

Performance for the year was mixed, but generally weak, with a flattening of the yield curve and widening credit spreads being the primary determinants of returns. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a proxy for the broad U.S. bond market, rose slightly for the year with a gain of 0.55% on the heels of a 0.57% loss in the final quarter. Corporate bonds generally underperformed U.S. Treasuries with calendar year returns of -0.68% and 0.84%, respectively. Below investment grade corporate bonds suffered losses for the full year as the yield spread between these bonds and U.S. Treasuries widened. As a result, high yield bonds lost 4.47% in 2015 as measured by the Barclays U.S. High Yield Corporate Index. This was the first annual year decline in high yield bonds outside of a recession since the 1990s and was driven by sharply declining oil prices in the energy sector (15% of the index). Emerging markets bonds outperformed U.S. bonds with an annual return of 1.82% as measured by the JP Morgan Emerging Market Bond Index.

In general, bonds with longer durations underperformed bonds with shorter durations. Ten-year U.S. Treasuries underperformed five-year U.S. Treasuries by 0.06% in the fourth quarter and underperformed by 0.40% for the full year. The effect of duration was even more evident for 30-year U.S. Treasury Bonds. After a surprisingly strong return of 29.38% in 2014, 30-year U.S. Treasury Bonds lost 3.17% in 2015 as expectations for growth and inflation were tempered heading into the new-year.

2016 – A Preview

Looking forward in 2016, the Fed’s Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) will continue to be closely watched and the subject of much speculation. The Fed is charged with maintaining employment while keeping prices stable by managing inflation. Although we have seen a strong recovery in employment, core inflation (the Fed’s preferred measure) continues to trend significantly below their 2.00% target. Combined with concerns regarding the strength of China and the pace of global growth, the Fed will continue to dominate the financial news. Based on the forward curve at year-end, investors anticipate that the Fed will increase interest rates twice during 2016 with some market pundits forecasting more rate hikes. We believe that this is a fair estimate; however, the Fed’s actions will remain very data dependent, and thus, expectations could certainly change as the year progresses.

Volatility increased in 2015, and we expect it to continue through 2016 – particularly if global monetary policies continue to diverge and/or the Fed continues raising rates. U.S. Treasury yields will continue to have conflicting pressures - upward pressure from the projected Fed rate increases and a strengthening U.S. economy offset by downward pressure from sluggish global economic growth, strong demand for U.S. debt and a low inflationary environment. The return expectations for fixed income securities during 2016 should remain somewhat muted compared to long-term averages.

Money Market Fund (Unaudited)

In December 2015, the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) saw sufficient evidence of economic strength to begin moving the federal funds rate target slightly higher. With a target range of 0.25% to 0.50%, the Fed continues to maintain a very accommodative monetary policy in an effort to stimulate further economic growth and thwart any deflationary pressures. Despite the decision to move off zero, short-term rates were at historically low levels throughout the year which negatively impacted the returns available to investors.

The Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) members, including Chair Janet Yellen, have continued to communicate that future rate hikes will be data dependent. Inflation pressure will likely be the primary focus of the FOMC as the employment situation has improved significantly since the end of the recession in the summer of 2009. Inflation, however, remains significantly below their target of 2.0% and economic growth has remained below the long-term trend, which gives the Fed room to be patient. Voting members of the FOMC suggest that there may be as many as three or four rate increases in 2016. The forward market, which represents the aggregate of investor expectations, suggests that the number will be closer to two increases during 2016. We believe that the Fed will continue to move slowly and cautiously regarding interest rates in a concerted effort to avoid straining the economy and to encourage lenders to generate new consumer and business loans.

Given the low interest rate environment which persisted throughout 2015, money market funds (which are lenders to borrowers at short-term interest rates) experienced another year of “just-above-zero” returns. At the end of 2015, the 90-day U.S. Treasury Bill was yielding 0.16%, although the rate was nearly zero for most of the year. The low yield environment, coupled with the regulatory constraints of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, made it incredibly difficult for money market funds across the industry to post positive returns after paying for fund-related expenses.

The Fund was invested in a broad range of high quality, short-term money market instruments denominated exclusively in U.S. dollars. The Fund maintained a stable per share price of $1.00, while paying monthly dividends based on the daily account value. The Investor Class of the Fund returned 0.02% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015, as compared to a 0.03% return for the Citigroup 3-Month Treasury bill Index (the benchmark index).The low rate environment made it challenging to generate a strong absolute return net of expenses. In the midst of the difficult interest rate and economic environment, the management of the Fund remained true and steadfast to its primary objectives of preservation of capital and liquidity versus sacrificing quality and taking imprudent risk in an effort to stretch for incremental yield. Stretching for yield in this environment provided an asymmetrical payoff, providing little, if any upside, while increasing the potential for a material negative return event. Throughout 2015, the Fund remained well diversified across many sectors including commercial paper, certificates of deposits, time deposits, floating rate notes and U.S. Treasuries. At year-end, the Fund’s weighted average maturity was 39 days, compared to 42 days at the end of 2014.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a short-term investment horizon, seek to maintain a stable dollar value for their investment and can accept a long-term rate of return that may be lower than other fixed income and stock investments.

An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency. Although the Fund seeks to maintain a value of $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

Low-Duration Bond Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund invested in a diversified portfolio composed primarily of investment grade fixed income securities with an average dollar-weighted duration (a measure of bond prices’ sensitivity to changes in interest rates) normally between one to three years. The Investor Class of the Fund slightly underperformed its all-U.S. Treasury benchmark index, the Bank of America Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index, for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015 (0.49% versus 0.54%). This was only the second year in which the Fund did not outperform the index since the financial crisis in 2008. In an effort to outpace its benchmark index, the Fund tactically utilized spread sectors (such as investment grade corporates, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities) that traded at a yield premium relative to their U.S. Treasury counterparts. The strategy of overweighting non-U.S. Treasuries sectors, particularly investment grade corporate bonds, detracted value relative to the benchmark, most notably during the third quarter of the year, a period that experienced spread widening due to elevated market volatility and fears regarding rate hikes and slowing economic growth outside of the United States. The Fund’s relative yield advantage versus the benchmark was a positive to relative returns.

Other strategies involving derivatives were utilized during the year resulting in an overall modest impact to performance. U.S. Treasury futures were used for the common purposes of duration management and yield curve positioning strategies. Over the course of the calendar year, these positions had a minimal impact on relative performance. Credit default swaps were utilized which slightly improved the Fund’s relative performance during the year as spreads widened within the corporate bond sector during the period the positions were held. In an effort to gain exposure to non-U.S. interest rates and duration, interest rate swaps were utilized and detracted modestly from relative performance. Currency forward contracts were used to hedge certain non-U.S. dollar positions. On an overall net basis, the currency strategies modestly benefitted relative performance.

During the year, the Fund remained true to its overall objective of seeking current income consistent with conservation of capital.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a short-term investment horizon, seek an investment return that is relatively stable and want to diversify their portfolio with a fixed income investment option. This Fund is subject to interest rate risk. Meaning, when interest rates rise, the value of the existing bonds decrease and vice versa. Changes in interest rates have a bigger impact on long duration holdings than on short duration holdings. To the extent that the investment adviser misjudges current market conditions, the Fund’s volatility may be amplified by its use of derivatives and by its ability to select sub-advisers to allocate assets. Some derivatives may increase the risk of loss and cause fluctuations in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio to have disproportionately large effects or cause the net asset value of the Fund generally to decline faster than it would otherwise. The use of certain derivatives may also have a leveraging effect which may increase the volatility of the Fund and may reduce its returns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund for the 10-year period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2015, with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the Bank of America Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

***Other financial instruments are derivative instruments not reflected in the Schedule of Investments, such as futures, forwards and swap contracts, which are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the investment. Details of these investments can be found in the Notes to Financial Statements.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year ended December 31, 2015.

The unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the reporting entity’s agency obligations, asset-backed securities, corporate bonds, foreign bonds and mortgage-backed securities are values based on evaluated quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities. Significant increases (decreases) in those evaluated quotations would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Medium-Duration Bond Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund invested in a diversified portfolio composed primarily of investment grade fixed income securities with an average dollar-weighted duration (a measure of bond prices’ sensitivity to changes in interest rates) normally between three to seven years. The Investor Class of the Fund underperformed its benchmark index, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015 (-0.22% versus 0.55%).

The Fund outpaced its benchmark index for two of the four quarters of the year. However, these periods of positive performance were unable to fully offset the weakness experienced in the third quarter. Widening spreads and rising volatility combined with overweight positions in credit were the strongest contributors to relative underperformance in the third quarter. Spreads continued to widen in the fourth quarter in anticipation and reaction to the Fed’s decision to increase short-term interest rates. During the year, the Fund remained diversified across multiple spread sectors to take advantage of the relative yield advantage of these sectors compared to U.S. Treasuries. The Fund’s performance was positively impacted by the relative yield advantage.

Other strategies involving derivatives were utilized during the year. U.S. Treasury futures contracts, options on U.S. Treasuries and Euro-futures were used for the common purposes of managing duration, implementing yield curve positioning strategies and expressing cross-sector views. Overall, on a net basis, these positions had a positive impact on performance. In an effort to better express the desired credit exposures and risks from a synthetic perspective, credit default swaps were utilized on a very modest basis. The positions established through the use of swaps detracted from the performance of the Fund. Currency forward contracts were utilized to hedge foreign currency risk and to express active currency views. These currency strategies resulted in a positive impact to the Fund’s performance. Through the process of implementing interest rate views and emerging markets strategies during the year, interest rate swaps were used although they provided little impact on the performance of the Fund.

During the year, the Fund remained focused on its objective of seeking maximum total return consistent with preservation of capital.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a short- to medium-term investment horizon, seek higher returns than those offered by a shorter maturity bond fund, can accept some short-term fluctuations in account value and want to diversify their portfolio with a fixed income investment option. This Fund is subject to interest rate risk. Meaning, when interest rates rise, the value of the existing bonds decrease and vice versa. Changes in interest rates have a bigger impact on long duration holdings than on short duration holdings. To the extent that the investment adviser misjudges current market conditions, the Fund’s volatility may be amplified by its use of derivatives and by its ability to select sub-advisers to allocate assets. Some derivatives may increase the risk of loss and cause fluctuations in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio to have disproportionately large effects or cause the net asset value of the Fund generally to decline faster than it would otherwise. The use of certain derivatives may also have a leveraging effect which may increase the volatility of the Fund and may reduce its returns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund for the 10-year period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2015, with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

***Other financial instruments are derivative instruments not reflected in the Schedule of Investments, such as futures, forwards and swap contracts, which are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the investment. Details of these investments can be found in the Notes to Financial Statements.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year ended December 31, 2015.

The unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the reporting entity’s asset-backed securities, corporate bonds, foreign bonds, foreign government inflation-linked note and mortgage-backed securities are values based on evaluated quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities. Significant increases (decreases) in those evaluated quotations would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Extended-Duration Bond Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund invested in a diversified portfolio composed primarily of investment grade fixed income securities with an average dollar-weighted duration (a measure of bond prices’ sensitivity to changes in interest rates) normally greater than or equal to seven years. The extended-duration space was challenging in 2015 with both the Fund and the composite benchmark index, 50% Barclays U.S. Long-Term Government Index and 50% Barclays U.S. Long-Term Credit Index, posting negative returns (-5.30% and -2.84%, respectively). Throughout the year, the Fund underweighted lower yielding U.S. Treasury securities in favor of higher yielding corporate bonds, non-U.S. bonds and high yield bonds. The Fund’s benchmark-relative performance was positively impacted by the Fund’s higher-than-benchmark yield, and shorter duration. In contrast, the Fund’s relative performance was negatively impacted by security selection within both investment grade corporate and high yield bonds within market sectors.

During the year, the Fund remained focused on its objective of seeking maximum total return consistent with preservation of capital.

The Fund did not invest in derivative investments during the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who are seeking higher returns without investing in stocks, can accept short-term fluctuations in account value and want to diversify their portfolio with a fixed income investment option. This Fund is subject to interest rate risk. Meaning, when interest rates rise, the value of the existing bonds decrease and vice versa. Changes in interest rates have a bigger impact on long duration holdings than on short duration holdings. To the extent that the investment adviser misjudges current market conditions, the Fund’s volatility may be amplified by its use of derivatives and by its ability to select sub-advisers to allocate assets. Some derivatives may increase the risk of loss and cause fluctuations in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio to have disproportionately large effects or cause the net asset value of the Fund generally to decline faster than it would otherwise. The use of certain derivatives may also have a leveraging effect which may increase the volatility of the Fund and may reduce its returns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund for the 10-year period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2015, with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the weighted composite benchmark index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

**Represents a weighted composite benchmark index consisting of 50% Barclays U.S. Long-Term Credit Bond Index and 50% Barclays U.S. Long-Term Government Bond Index.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

Global Bond Fund (Unaudited)

The divergence in monetary policies among the major central banks, which began in 2014, accelerated in 2015. Although still very accommodating, the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) increased the fed funds rate in December in response to a stronger employment situation and an improving economic outlook. Risks to the U.S. economy continue, and the Fed is expected to be cautious and patient in their pace of further rate hikes, which will be based upon improving data. Outside the United States, however, central banks such as those in Japan, China and Continental Europe have continued their efforts to stimulate economic growth. This dynamic of differing policies will continue to be a major factor in the relative attractiveness of bonds and currencies around the globe. The U.S. dollar continued to gain in value relative to other major currencies including the Great Britain pound, the Japanese yen and the euro. This dollar strength dampened returns for U.S. investors on international bonds (denominated in U.S. dollars), and in many cases, turned small gains in local currency to more substantial losses in U.S. dollar terms. This trend may well continue should the Fed continue to increase short-term interest rates in the United States while the other major central banks maintain their stimulus efforts. The global bond market, as measured by the Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index, posted an annual return of -3.15%. Emerging market debt, as measured by the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Plus (“J.P. Morgan EMBI+”) (a U.S. dollar denominated index), generated an annual return of 1.82%.

The Fund is actively managed and invests in a diversified portfolio composed primarily of global fixed income securities with an average dollar-weighted duration (a measure of bond prices’ sensitivity to changes in interest rates) normally between three to 10 years. The Fund maintained its global focus, seeking investment opportunities across a wide array of economies, credits, yield curves and currencies. For the one-year period ended December 31, 2015, the Investor Class of the Fund underperformed its composite benchmark, 50% Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index – Unhedged, 25% J.P. Morgan EMBI+ and 25% Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Index – 2% Issuer Capped, (-6.00% versus -2.21%). The underperformance was primarily due to widening credit spreads and a strengthening U.S. dollar. The yield curve strategy provided minimal performance variation relative to the composite benchmark. During the year, the Fund utilized U.S. and non-U.S. government futures and options to manage yield curve and duration strategies. These strategies were mixed in their impacts on the Fund’s performance. Additionally, the Fund used currency forward contracts and options on currency forwards for hedging purposes which benefited the Fund’s relative performance during the year.

During the year, the Fund remained focused on its objective of seeking to maximize total return through capital gains and current income while preserving principal value.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a medium- to long-term investment horizon, seek higher returns than those offered by a shorter maturity bond fund, can accept short-term fluctuations in account value and want to diversify their portfolio with a globally diversified fixed-income investment option. This Fund may invest, to a large extent, in high yield securities, commonly known as junk bonds. While offering higher current yields, these securities may be considered speculative and are subject to greater risks than higher-rated bonds. Securities of emerging countries may involve additional risks including price volatility, reduced liquidity, currency fluctuation and financial reporting requirements as well as political and economic instability. This Fund is subject to interest rate risk. Meaning, when interest rates rise, the value of the existing bonds decrease and vice versa. Changes in interest rates have a bigger impact on long duration holdings than on short duration holdings. To the extent that the investment adviser misjudges current market conditions, the Fund’s volatility may be amplified by its use of derivatives and by its ability to select sub-advisers to allocate assets. Some derivatives may increase the risk of loss and cause fluctuations in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio to have disproportionately large effects or cause the net asset value of the Fund generally to decline faster than it would otherwise. The use of certain derivatives may also have a leveraging effect which may increase the volatility of the Fund and may reduce its returns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

**Represents a weighted composite benchmark index consisting of 25% JPMorgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Plus, 50% Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index — Unhedged and 25% Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield – 2% Issuer Capped Index.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

***Other financial instruments are derivative instruments not reflected in the Schedule of Investments, such as futures, forwards and swap contracts, which are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the investment. Details of these investments can be found in the Notes to Financial Statements.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year ended December 31, 2015.

The unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the reporting entity’s mortgage backed securities, corporate bonds, foreign bonds, foreign common stock and foreign government inflation-linked note are values based on evaluated quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities. Significant increases (decreases) in those evaluated quotations would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

EQUITY SELECT FUNDS (Unaudited)

Global equity markets showed resilience in the fourth quarter and erased a good portion of the losses suffered in the prior quarter. Familiar themes such as moderating growth expectations in China, Federal Reserve (“Fed”) policy related to the timing of potential interest rate hikes and falling commodity prices continued to dominate the headlines and contributed to market uncertainty throughout the year. In the United States, equity markets continued to be volatile towards year-end as the S&P 500® Index advanced in October and November but declined in December. The result was an overall fourth quarter return of 7.04%, bringing the annual return to a positive 1.38% for 2015. The broader U.S. market, as measured by the Russell 3000® Index, posted returns of 6.27% for the fourth quarter and 0.48% for calendar year 2015.

From a sector perspective, performance was mixed as only five of nine sectors within the Russell 3000® Index advanced during the year. The best performance came from defensive sectors such as health care and consumer staples, while the worst performance came from the cyclical energy and materials & processing sector. The energy sector was clearly the weakest performer for the year and was negatively impacted by the continued decline in oil and gas prices.

Companies with larger capitalization, higher price-to-earnings ratios and lower dividend yield characteristics generally performed well during the year. In terms of equity market capitalization, large-cap companies outperformed their small-cap counterparts as the Russell 1000® Index posted a one-year return of 0.92%, while the Russell 2000® Index declined -4.41%. Style differentiation was evident during the year as growth-oriented stocks outperformed value-oriented stocks across all market capitalization segments. In the large capitalization segment, the Russell 1000® Growth Index and Russell 1000® Value Index had one-year returns of 5.67% and -3.83%, respectively. In the small capitalization segment, the Russell 2000® Growth Index posted a one-year return of -1.38%, while the Russell 2000® Value Index declined -7.47%. The fact that growth-oriented stocks outperformed their value-oriented counterparts is consistent with performance normally experienced in the late stages of an economic cycle.

Developed non-U.S. markets underperformed their U.S. counterparts and were negatively impacted by the U.S. dollar, which strengthened against most currencies during the year. The MSCI EAFE Index (Net), a measure of international developed country returns, posted a fourth quarter return of 4.71%, bringing the one-year return to -0.81%. Growth styles outperformed value styles and small capitalization stocks generally outperformed large capitalization stocks during the year. From a country perspective, Singapore, Spain and Norway posted the worst performance, while Denmark, Ireland and Belgium were among the best performing countries for the year. From a sector perspective, the weakest performance was registered in the energy and materials sectors, which were negatively impacted by the fall in oil prices, while the strongest performance came from the more defensive health care and consumer staples sectors.

Emerging markets experienced a difficult year and continued to face the headwinds of slower Chinese growth, weak commodity prices and a strong U.S. dollar. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net) posted a small gain of 0.66% in the fourth quarter but was down -14.92% for the year, making it the weakest period since 2011. The worst performance was experienced in countries such as Greece, Brazil and Columbia, while Russia and Hungary were among the few positive performing countries for the year. All sectors were negative and seven of the ten groups experienced double-digit declines for the one-year period. The materials and utilities sectors were the worst performers, while the technology and health care sectors were the strongest performing sectors for calendar year 2015.

Defensive Market Strategies Fund (Unaudited)

The Defensive Market Strategies Fund combines multiple strategies that in aggregate seek to provide long-term capital appreciation with reduced volatility compared to the equity markets.

The Investor Class of the Fund achieved its investment objective during 2015, outperforming its composite benchmark of 50% S&P 500® Index and 50% Citigroup 3-month Treasury Bill Index (2.16% versus 0.91%). The Fund also outperformed its reference benchmark, represented by the S&P 500® Index, which posted a modestly positive return of just 1.38% for the year. The greater capital appreciation of the Fund, relative to that of the S&P 500® Index, was due to the outperformance of the sub-adviser composite despite the Fund having materially lower market sensitivity (equity beta) and volatility (standard deviation) compared to the S&P 500® Index.

The Fund currently has assets allocated between three principal investment strategies, including long-only equity, options equity and convertible bonds. For the calendar year 2015, the long-only equity and options equity strategies contributed positively to absolute and benchmark-relative returns, while the convertible bonds strategy detracted from both absolute and benchmark-relative results.

The long-only equity strategy outperformed the S&P 500® Index for the year, benefiting from strong security selection, most notably in financial services and utilities. Strong security selection overcame defensive posturing in an environment where, in general, the highest beta stocks outperformed. Sector positioning detracted from results relative to the S&P 500® Index, mostly due to underweight positioning in technology and consumer discretionary stocks.

The options equity strategy contributed positively to benchmark relative performance, benefiting from an environment where the option premiums collected from option selling outperformed that of the equity risk premium, which was close to zero.

The convertible bonds strategy produced modestly negative returns. Strong security selection in the less equity sensitive securities of the convertible bond market boosted returns relative to a broad convertible bond index, but the allocation still underperformed the Fund’s benchmark. The Merrill Lynch All U.S. Convertibles Index fell 2.89% for the year and was impacted most negatively by declining share prices of the convertible bond issuers, which reduced the value of the imbedded options of the convertible bonds in the index.

Some underlying strategies may utilize derivative instruments within the Fund. During 2015, the Fund sold equity options in order to hedge (reduce) equity exposure and to collect the option premium from selling. The use of equity options contributed meaningfully to performance during 2015. Currency forwards were used to hedge foreign currency exposure back to the U.S. dollar and also contributed positively to the Fund’s performance.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a medium- to long-term investment horizon, possess a moderate tolerance for risk and seek to participate in the return potential of stocks at a slightly lower risk level than an all stock portfolio. Convertible securities valuations generally are more closely aligned with a company’s bonds than common stock. This Fund is subject to interest rate risk. Meaning, when interest rates rise, the value of the existing bonds decrease and vice versa. Foreign securities may be subject to greater risk than domestic securities due to currency volatility, reduced market liquidity and political and economic instability. To the extent that the investment adviser misjudges current market conditions, the Fund’s volatility may be amplified by its use of short sales and derivatives, and by its ability to select sub-advisers to allocate assets. Short sales by a fund theoretically involve unlimited loss potential since the market price of securities sold short may continuously increase. Leverage may increase the risk of loss and cause fluctuations in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio to have disproportionately large effects or cause the net asset value of the Fund to generally decline faster than it would otherwise. The use of certain derivatives may also have a leveraging effect which may increase the volatility of the Fund and may reduce its returns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

***Other financial instruments are derivative instruments not reflected in the Schedule of Investments, such as futures, forwards and swap contracts, which are valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the investment. Details of these investments can be found in the Notes to Financial Statements.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year ended December 31, 2015.

The unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the reporting entity’s synthetic convertible instruments are values based on evaluated quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities. Significant increases (decreases) in those evaluated quotations would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

The following is a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value:

Equity Index Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund was passively managed and benchmarked against the S&P 500® Index. The Fund was comprised of domestic, large-cap equity stocks with both value- and growth-style orientations. The objective of the Fund was to provide investment results approximating the aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities included in the S&P 500® Index. The correlation between the Fund’s performance and the S&P 500® Index is expected to be greater than 98%. However, it could be lower in certain market environments and due to certain stocks that may be excluded from the Fund’s portfolio because of social investment policies and restrictions (100% would indicate perfect correlation). The Investor Class of the Fund returned 0.70% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015, as compared to a 1.38% return for the S&P 500® Index. The return differential was primarily a result of social restrictions and expenses of the Fund.

In 2015, derivative positions, exchange listed equity index futures contracts, were utilized to provide market exposure to the cash positions held in the Fund. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight negative impact on Fund performance for the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who seek higher, long-term rates of return, can accept significant short-term fluctuations in account value and want to diversify their portfolio by adding a potentially higher return, higher risk option of stocks. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of total investments, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

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

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund for the 10-year period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2015, with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the S&P 500® Index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

Value Equity Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund invested in a diversified portfolio of large- and medium-sized U.S. companies whose stocks were considered to be attractive from a valuation perspective. The Investor Class of the Fund slightly outperformed its benchmark, the Russell 1000® Value Index, for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015 (-3.70% versus -3.83%). Underweight exposure and security selection to the energy sector contributed to benchmark-relative performance, while security selection to the financial services and consumer discretionary sectors detracted from benchmark-relative performance for the year.

In 2015, derivative positions, exchange listed equity index futures contracts, were utilized to provide market exposure to the cash positions held in the Fund. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight negative impact on Fund performance for the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who seek higher, long-term rates of return, can accept significant short-term fluctuations in account value and want to diversify their portfolio by adding a potentially higher return, higher risk option of value stocks. This Fund is subject to value investing risk. This involves the risk that an investment in companies whose securities are believed to be undervalued, relative to their underlying profitability, will not appreciate in value as anticipated. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of total investments, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

The performance data quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher. Performance data current to the most recent month-end may be obtained at www.GuideStoneFunds.org. The 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.

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund for the 10-year period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2015, with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the Russell 1000® Value Index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

Growth Equity Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund invested in a diversified portfolio of large- and medium-sized U.S. companies whose stocks were considered to have above average potential for growth in revenue and earnings. The Investor Class of the Fund slightly underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 1000® Growth Index, for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015 (5.44% versus 5.67%). Overweight exposure within the energy sector and security selection within the consumer staples and health care sectors detracted from benchmark-relative returns, while security selection within the consumer discretionary and technology sectors contributed to benchmark-relative performance during the year.

In 2015, derivative positions, exchange listed equity index futures contracts, were utilized to provide market exposure to the cash positions held in the Fund. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight negative impact on Fund performance for the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who seek high, long-term rates of return, can accept significant short-term fluctuations in account value, want to invest in growth-oriented stocks and would like to diversify their portfolio by adding a potentially higher return, higher risk option of stocks. The Fund will not concentrate in any particular industry, but at times, it may be heavily invested in a particular economic sector. This may result in greater short-term price volatility. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of total investments, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

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

The 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.

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund for the 10-year period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2015, with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the Russell 1000® Growth Index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

Small Cap Equity Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund was comprised of domestic, small-cap stocks with both value- and growth-style orientations. The Investor Class of the Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2000® Index, for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015 (-5.91% versus -4.41%). Security selection within the materials & processing sector as well as underweight exposure and security selection to the health care sector detracted from benchmark-relative returns, while security selection within the consumer discretionary and energy sectors contributed to benchmark-relative performance during the year.

In 2015, derivative positions, exchange listed equity index futures contracts, were utilized to provide market exposure to the cash positions held in the Fund. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight positive impact on Fund performance for the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who seek higher, long-term rates of return, can accept significant short-term fluctuations in account value, want to invest in stocks of small- to medium-sized U.S. companies and would like to diversify their portfolio by adding a potentially higher return, higher risk option of stocks. Small company stocks are subject to greater risk than large company stocks due to more volatility and less liquidity. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of total investments, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

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

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund for the 10-year period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2015, with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the Russell 2000® Index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

International Equity Index Fund (Unaudited)

Developed non-U.S. markets underperformed their U.S. counterparts and were negatively impacted by the U.S. dollar which strengthened against most currencies during the year. The MSCI EAFE Index (Net), a measure of international developed country returns, posted a fourth quarter return of 4.71%, bringing the one-year return to -0.81%. Growth styles outperformed value styles and small capitalization stocks generally outperformed large capitalization stocks during the year. From a country perspective, Singapore, Spain and Norway posted the worst performance, while Denmark, Ireland and Belgium were among the best performing countries for the year. From a sector perspective, the weakest performance was registered in the energy and materials sectors which were negatively impacted by the fall in oil prices, while the strongest performance came from the more defensive health care and consumer staples sectors.

The Fund was passively managed and attempts to duplicate the investment composition and performance of its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index (Net). The MSCI EAFE Index (Net) is an equity index which captures large- and mid-cap representation across developed market countries around the world, excluding the United States and Canada. The objective of the Fund was to provide investment results approximating the aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities included in the MSCI EAFE Index (Net). The correlation between the Fund’s performance and the MSCI EAFE Index (Net) is expected to be greater than 98%. However, it could be lower in certain market environments and due to certain stocks that may be excluded from the Fund’s portfolio because of social investment policies and restrictions (100% would indicate perfect correlation). The Fund was incepted in June 2015 and does not have a full calendar year of performance. The Fund returned -9.88% for the since inception period ended December 31, 2015, as compared to a -8.67% return for the MSCI EAFE Index (Net). The return differential was primarily a result of social restrictions and expenses of the Fund.

In 2015, derivative positions, exchange listed equity index futures contracts, were utilized to provide market exposure to the cash positions held in the Fund. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight negative impact on Fund performance for the year.

The Fund invests in foreign market securities which involves certain risks such as currency volatility, political and social instability and reduced market liquidity. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

International Equity Fund (Unaudited)

Developed non-U.S. markets underperformed their U.S. counterparts and were negatively impacted by the U.S. dollar which strengthened against most currencies during the year. The MSCI EAFE Index (Net), a measure of international developed country returns, posted a fourth quarter return of 4.71%, bringing the one-year return to -0.81%. Growth styles outperformed value styles and small capitalization stocks generally outperformed large capitalization stocks during the year. From a country perspective, Singapore, Spain and Norway posted the worst performance, while Denmark, Ireland and Belgium were among the best performing countries for the year. From a sector perspective, the weakest performance was registered in the energy and materials sectors which were negatively impacted by the fall in oil prices, while the strongest performance came from the more defensive health care and consumer staples sectors.

The International Equity Fund continued to be invested in markets deemed to be developed and, to a much lesser extent, in markets deemed to be emerging or non-developed. The Fund was primarily comprised of equities of foreign companies and was diversified among a large number of companies across different industries and economic sectors. The Investor Class of the Fund underperformed its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015 (-2.16% versus -0.81%). On a country basis, underweight exposure and security selection within Japan and security selection within France and the Netherlands negatively impacted benchmark relative performance. Tactical exposure to emerging markets also had a negative impact during the period. On the positive side, underweight exposure to Australia as well as security selection to Germany positively impacted performance. On a sector basis, security selection to the industrials and financials sectors detracted, while security selection to the materials and consumer discretionary sectors contributed to benchmark-relative returns during the year.

Within the Fund, certain derivatives were utilized to express active views in currency and country selection and to hedge foreign currency exposure back to the U.S. dollar. These derivative positions primarily included currency forward contracts, stock index futures and stock index future swaps. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight positive impact on Fund performance over the course of the year.

This Fund may be suitable to investors who seek higher, long-term rates of return, can accept significant short-term fluctuations in account value and want to diversify their portfolio with international stocks. The Fund invests in foreign and emerging market securities which involve certain risks such as currency volatility, political and social instability and reduced market liquidity. To the extent that the investment adviser misjudges current market conditions, the Fund’s volatility may be amplified by its use of short sales and derivatives and by its ability to select sub-advisers to allocate assets. Short sales by a fund theoretically involve unlimited loss potential since the market price of securities sold short may continuously increase. Leverage may increase the risk of loss and cause fluctuations in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio to have disproportionately large effects or cause the net asset value of the Fund generally to decline faster than it would otherwise. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund for the 10-year period from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2015, with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the MSCI EAFE Index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

Emerging Markets Equity Fund (Unaudited)

Emerging markets experienced a difficult year and continued to face the headwinds of slower Chinese growth, weak commodity prices and a strong U.S. dollar. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net) posted a small gain of 0.66% in the fourth quarter but was down -14.92% for the year, making it the weakest period since 2011. The worst performance was experienced in countries such as Greece, Brazil and Columbia, while Russia and Hungary were among the few positive performing countries for the year. All sectors were negative and seven of the ten groups experienced double-digit declines for the one-year period. The materials and utilities sectors were the worst performers, while the technology and health care sectors were the stronger performing sectors for calendar year 2015.

The Emerging Markets Equity Fund is actively managed and invests mainly in a diversified portfolio of stocks of foreign companies of any market capitalization located in emerging markets. The Investor Class of the Fund underperformed its benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net), for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015 (-19.14% versus -14.92%). On a country basis, security selection in Brazil and South Africa detracted from benchmark-relative performance, while underweight exposure and security selection to China positively impacted performance. On a sector basis, security selection to the materials, energy and consumer staples sectors detracted from benchmark-relative returns, while security selection to the financials sector was one of the few contributors to benchmark-relative returns during the one-year period.

Within the Fund, certain derivatives were utilized to express active views in currency and country selection. These derivative positions primarily included currency forward contracts, stock index futures and stock index future swaps. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight negative impact on Fund performance over the course of the year.

This Fund may be suitable to investors who seek higher, long-term rates of return, can accept significant short-term fluctuations in account value and want to diversify their portfolio with emerging market stocks. The Fund invests in emerging market securities which involves certain risks such as currency volatility, political and social instability and reduced market liquidity. Medium and small companies have limited product lines, markets and financial resources, and their stocks historically have been more volatile and less liquid than large company stocks. To the extent that the investment advisor misjudges current market conditions, the Fund’s volatility may be amplified by its use of derivatives, and by its ability to select sub-advisers to allocate assets. Some derivatives may increase the risk of loss and cause fluctuations in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio to have disproportionately large effects or cause the net asset value of the Fund generally to decline faster than it would otherwise. The use of certain derivatives may also have a leveraging effect which may increase the volatility of the Fund and may reduce its returns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund since October 31, 2013 (commencement of operations), with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the MSCI EM Index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

REAL ASSET SELECT FUNDS (Unaudited)

Real asset returns were mixed for the year, with a wide dispersion of results and some Funds delivering significantly negative performance. The Real Assets Select Funds include funds that invest in various real asset strategies that are commonly used as a strategic diversifier to traditional equity and fixed income investments and as inflation hedges within a broader investment portfolio. Real assets represent a broadly diverse set of investments that can be classified into several sub-categories including inflation-linked bonds, commodities, global natural resource equities, real estate securities and floating-rate bank loans.

U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (“TIPS”) historically have been the least volatile of the real asset categories. TIPS, as measured by the Barclays U.S. TIPS Index, fell 1.44% in 2015. The sector was hurt by failing inflation expectations, as commodity prices tumbled, and rising real rates. In comparison, the U.S. 10-Year U.S. Treasury was up 0.91% for the year.

Commodities were one of the worst performing real asset categories for the year, as the Bloomberg Commodity Index posted a -24.66% return for 2015. This index represents diversified exposure to a basket of commodities futures across energy, agriculture, livestock and industrial and precious metals. Commodities faced headwinds all year as several experienced negative price pressure due to global excess supply, a strong U.S. dollar and falling demand expectations out of a slower growing China. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil suffered roughly a 30% loss and copper fell prices fell around 25%.

Declining commodity prices throughout the year put downward pressure on the global natural resource equity category, and the MSCI World Commodity Producers Index returned -25.62%. Both energy producers and mining companies experienced double digit declines for the year, as it has become difficult for many firms in these sectors to operate profitably and service debts under current commodity prices.

The global real estate investment trust (REIT) market fell -0.79% for the year as measured by the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Index - Net. Overall, macro concerns led to a volatile 2015 and negatively impacted performance. From a regional perspective, Europe was the top performer returning over 6.00%, while Asia was the top detractor from absolute performance, down roughly 7.00% due in part to the economic and local stock market issues out of China.

Bank loans, predominately senior-secured, were up a modest 0.80% for the year based on the S&P® U.S. B- Ratings and Above Loan Index. Bank loans are generally below-investment grade investments that provide higher yields and lower duration (a measure of bond prices’ sensitivity to changes in interest rates) than in traditional fixed income instruments. While bank loans benefited from a low default rate environment, widening credit spreads hurt returns for the year. Bank loans outperformed the broader universe of high yield bonds and investment grade corporate bonds. As of December 31, 2015, the current yield on the index was 4.96%.

Inflation Protected Bond Fund (Unaudited)

The Fund was actively managed and was primarily comprised of inflation-indexed debt securities with an average dollar-weighted duration (a measure of bond prices’ sensitivity to changes in interest rates) normally between four and 10 years. The Fund underperformed its benchmark index, the Barclays U.S. TIPS Index, for the one year period ended December 31, 2015 (-2.25% versus -1.44%).

The Fund was invested predominately in U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (“TIPS”) throughout the year. U.S. TIPS were positive in the first quarter, with the benchmark index rising 1.42% in part due to Fed forward guidance viewed as dovish -thus delaying rate hike expectations. Additionally, TIPS enjoyed a strong bid from investors on continued U.S. dollar strength on the back of monetary policy divergence, which helped the Fund outperform in the first quarter. However, over the rest of the year, TIPS gave up all of their gains and turned negative as inflation expectations continued to weaken due in large part to the free fall in commodity prices. Additionally, interest rate increases outpaced inflation, causing real rates to rise and hurting the absolute performance of the relatively longer duration securities in the Fund (duration of the benchmark index is just over seven years). Throughout the year, the Fund had a higher duration than the benchmark index which contributed to relative underperformance for the year.

The Fund was consistently managed to provide inflation protection and income consistent with investment in inflation-indexed securities.

Certain strategies involving derivatives were utilized during the year. Interest rate futures and options were utilized to manage duration and yield curve exposure and to express active views on valuations of securities. The portfolio’s overall duration and yield curve posture contributed negatively to relative performance for the year. The Fund also utilized currency forwards and options to hedge non-dollar positions and to express active views in foreign currencies. The use of currency forwards and futures contributed to performance over the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a long-term investment horizon, want protection from inflation, can accept short-term fluctuations in account value and want to diversify their portfolio with a fixed income investment option. This Fund is subject to interest rate risk. Meaning, when interest rates rise, the value of the existing bonds decrease and vice versa. Changes in interest rates have a bigger impact on long duration holdings than on short duration holdings. To the extent that the investment adviser misjudges current market conditions, the Fund’s volatility may be amplified by its use of derivatives, and by its ability to select sub-advisers to allocate assets. Some derivatives may increase the risk of loss and cause fluctuations in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio to have disproportionately large effects or cause the net asset value of the Fund generally to decline faster than it would otherwise. The use of certain derivatives may also have a leveraging effect which may increase the volatility of the Fund and may reduce its returns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

Flexible Income Fund (Unaudited)

The Flexible Income Fund primarily invests in below investment grade, senior secured floating rate loans issued by U.S. banks or other financial institutions, otherwise referred to as “bank loans” or “leveraged loans.” To a lesser extent, the Fund may also invest in other below investment grade corporate fixed income securities or unsecured floating rate loans and may include non-U.S. securities. The Fund underperformed its benchmark, the S&P LSTA U.S. B- Ratings & Above Leveraged Loan Index, for the 2015 calendar year (-1.54% vs. 0.80%).

Overall, it was a challenging year for bank loans and high yield bonds as credit spreads widened led by concerns in the energy sector. The Fund’s underweight exposure to BB loans relative to the benchmark hurt relative performance, as lower rated bank loans underperformed. Security selection within BB rated securities negatively impacted relative performance as well. In addition, the Fund’s modest exposure to high yield bonds lowered returns relative to its benchmark index. Underweight exposure and negative selection in the electronics/electrical industry along with negative stock selection within forest products detracted from benchmark relative performance for the Fund. Positive security selection within and an underweight to the utilities sector contributed positively to benchmark relative results.

During the year, the Fund remained focused on its objective of seeking a high level of current income. At year-end, the current yield of the Fund was 4.96%.

The Fund did not invest in derivative instruments during the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a medium- to long-term investment horizon, possess a moderate tolerance for risk and are seeking income which may be more sensitive to interest rates than traditional bonds.

There is a risk that the issuer of a fixed-income investment owned by the Fund may fail to pay interest or principal due in a timely manner or at all. If the Fund acquires a participation interest in a senior secured or unsecured floating rate loan (“Senior Loans”), the Fund may not be able to control the exercise of any remedies that the lender would have under the loan and likely would not have any rights against the borrower directly. Senior Loans made to finance highly leveraged corporate acquisitions may be especially vulnerable to adverse changes in economic or market conditions. The Fund is subject to collateral risk in that the value of collateral securing a Senior Loan may decline after investment and that the collateral may not be sufficient to cover the amount owed. The Fund might not be able to sell a security promptly and at an acceptable price, which could have the effect of decreasing the overall level of the Fund’s liquidity. High yield securities (“junk bonds”) involve greater risks of default and are more volatile than securities rated investment grade. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

Real Assets Fund (Unaudited)

The Real Assets Fund, through investments in other funds, invests mainly in securities or physical assets with real return characteristics.

The Fund had a target asset allocation to Real Assets Select Funds and another real return fund including 33% Inflation Protected Bond Fund, 15% Real Estate Securities Fund, 17.5% Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund (a third party mutual fund), 17.5% Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and 17% Flexible Income Fund.

As a fund of funds, its performance was based on the performance of the underlying funds. The Fund underperformed its composite benchmark index (33% Barclays U.S. TIPS Index, 17% S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index, 15% FTSE EPRA / NAREIT Developed Index, 14% MSCI World Commodity Producers Index, 4% NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index and 17% S&P Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index) during 2015 (-11.77% versus -8.83%).

On an absolute basis, only the Real Estate Securities Fund had positive performance for the year as the other underlying Funds delivered negative returns. The Real Estate Securities Fund contributed to performance while the largest detractors were the Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund.

The Real Estate Securities Fund contributed positively to benchmark relative performance, while other underlying Real Asset Select Funds underperformed their respective benchmarks. The dominant driver of benchmark relative underperformance was the Fund’s allocation to the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund, which trailed its benchmark in 2015.

The Fund did not invest in derivative instruments during the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a medium- to long-term investment horizon, possess a moderate tolerance for risk and seek to participate in the return potential of real return related securities. The Fund attempts to achieve its objective by investing in selected GuideStone Funds Select Funds and other investments. By investing in the Fund, you will also incur the expenses and risks of underlying fund investments. The principal risks of the Fund will change depending on the asset mix of the Select Funds and other investments in which it invests. You may directly invest in only those Select Funds which are eligible for direct investment. The Fund’s value will go up and down in response to changes in the share prices of the investments that it owns. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

Real Estate Securities Fund (Unaudited)

Global real estate markets experienced volatility during the year but showed resilience in the fourth quarter and erased a good portion of the losses suffered in the prior two quarters. Familiar themes such as moderating growth expectations in China, Federal Reserve policy related to the timing of potential interest rate hikes and falling commodity prices continued to dominate the headlines and contributed to market uncertainty throughout the year. The FTSE EPRA / NAREIT Developed Index – Net, posted a fourth quarter return of 4.19%, bringing the one-year return to -0.79%.

The Real Estate Securities Fund provides exposure to real estate by investing in public real estate securities with strong cash flow growth potential that provides the capacity for sustained dividend increases. The Fund was diversified among property sectors and geographical locations. The Fund outperformed its benchmark, the FTSE EPRA / NAREIT Developed Index - Net, for the 2015 calendar year (0.34% vs. -0.79%). Stock selection in the Americas, Japan, Continental Europe and Asia ex-Japan contributed, while stock selection in the United Kingdom detracted from benchmark-relative returns. From a regional allocation perspective, an underweight in the Americas region and an overweight in the U. K. region were the largest contributors. An underweight in the Asia ex-Japan region and an overweight in the Japan region detracted the most during the year.

In 2015, derivative positions, exchange listed equity index futures contracts, were utilized to provide market exposure to the cash positions held in the Fund. Overall, derivative exposure had a slight positive impact on Fund performance for the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who seek the potential for current income and long-term capital appreciation. Investors should be willing to accept significant short-term fluctuations in account value and want to diversify their portfolio through exposure to publicly traded real estate securities.

This Fund invests substantial assets in real estate investment trusts (REITs) that involve equity market risks as well as risks linked directly to the real estate market. Risks include declines in the value of real estate, general and economic conditions, changes in the value of the underlying property and defaults by borrowers. The value of assets in the real estate industry may go through cycles of relative underperformance and outperformance in comparison to equity securities markets in general. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of total investments, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

Global Natural Resources Equity Fund (Unaudited)

The Global Natural Resources Equity Fund primarily invests in equity securities of companies considered to be principally engaged in natural resources industries and related sectors or that supply goods, technology and services to such companies. The benchmark index was changed during the fourth quarter from the 75% MSCI World Commodity Producers Index / 25% NYSE Gold Miners Arca Index to the MSCI World Commodity Producers Index. From January through November, the Fund underperformed its former benchmark (-29.07% versus -20.07%). During December, the Fund underperformed its new benchmark (-3.53% versus -0.11%). Overall, the Fund underperformed its new benchmark for the 2015 calendar year (-34.49% versus -25.62%).

From an allocation perspective, the Fund’s smaller capitalization bias hurt benchmark-relative results. For example, the Fund held no exposure to integrated oil companies (which includes the oil “majors,” such as ExxonMobil or Conoco Phillips), and instead had overweight exposures to “regional” independent players in the North American natural gas and oil sectors. These sectors significantly underperformed integrated oil companies and the MSCI World Commodity Producers Index for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015. The Fund was also overweight base metals (copper miners in particular), which hurt performance as declining economic growth concerns out of China weighed heavily on the sector.

From a stock selection perspective, the Fund’s benchmark relative results benefited from strong stock selection within the base metals and fertilizers industries. Stock selection within North American natural oil and gas sub-sectors was a slight detractor to relative performance.

During the year, the Fund remained focused on achieving its objective of seeking long-term capital appreciation.

The Fund did not invest in derivative instruments during the year.

This Fund may be suitable for investors who have a medium- to long-term investment horizon, possess a high tolerance for risk and seek to participate in the return potential of natural resources related equity securities. An investment in medium-, small- and micro-cap companies may involve greater risk and be more volatile and less liquid than an investment in a larger company. Investment in companies in natural resources industries may be significantly affected by (often rapid) changes in supply of, or demand for various natural resources. Concentrating investments in the natural resources sector increases the risk of loss because the securities of many or all of the companies in the sector may decline in value due to developments adversely affecting the sector, including market, economic, political or regulatory developments. Prices of precious metals and of precious metal-related securities have historically been very volatile due to various economic, financial, social and political factors and may adversely affect the financial condition of companies involved with precious metals. It is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the portfolio holdings of the Fund, as a percentage of net assets, is shown in the following table. Portfolio holdings are subject to risk and may change at any time.

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

The graph compares the results of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Investor Class of the Fund since July 1, 2013 (commencement of operations), with all dividends and capital gains reinvested, with the weighted composite benchmark index.

*These returns reflect expense waivers by the Fund’s investment adviser. Without these waivers, returns would have been lower. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

**The benchmark index was changed during the fourth quarter from the 75% MSCIWorld Commodity Producers Index / 25% NYSE Gold Miners Arca Index (the “Benchmark Index”) to the MSCI World Commodity Producers Index.

Unlike a mutual fund, the performance of an index assumes no taxes, transaction costs, management fees or other expenses.

† Amount represents less than $0.005 per share.
# Calculated using the average shares outstanding method.
(1) Recognition of net investment income by the Fund is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying investment companies in which the Fund invests.
(2) Includes dividends paid from the short-term portion of capital gain distributions received from affiliated Funds.
(3) Does not include expenses of the investment companies in which the Fund invests.
(4) The ratio includes expenses waived/reimbursed net of amount recaptured and fees paid indirectly, where applicable; if expenses waived/reimbursed net of amount recaptured and fees paid indirectly were excluded, the ratio would have been higher (lower), respectively, than the ratio shown.
(5) The ratio excludes expenses waived/reimbursed net of amount recaptured and fees paid indirectly, where applicable; if expenses waived/reimbursed net of amount recaptured and fees paid indirectly were included, the ratio would have been lower than the ratio shown.
(6) Inception date was April 30, 2015. All ratios for the period have been annualized. Total return and portfolio turnover for the period have not been annualized.
(7) An out of period adjustment to Investment Income had no impact on Net Investment Income per Share or Total Return; however, the Ratio of Net Investment Income to Average Net Assets increased by 0.01%.
(8) Inception date was July 1, 2013. All ratios for the period have been annualized. Total return and portfolio turnover for the period have not been annualized.
(9) The portfolio turnover rate for the year ended December 31, 2015 reflects rebalancing of holdings in the Fund and is not representative of a change in investment strategy for the Fund.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE FUNDS

GuideStone Funds (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on March 2, 2000. The Trust has established twenty-eight series (each, a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”). Each Fund is a diversified, open-end management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

The MyDestination 2005, MyDestination 2015, MyDestination 2025, MyDestination 2035, MyDestination 2045 and MyDestination 2055 Fund are each referred to as a “Target Date Fund” and together as the “Target Date Funds.”

The Conservative Allocation Fund, Balanced Allocation Fund, Growth Allocation Fund and Aggressive Allocation Fund are each referred to as an “Asset Allocation Fund” and together as the “Asset Allocation Funds.”

The remaining Funds are each referred to as a “Select Fund” and are together referred to as the “Select Funds.” The Money Market Fund is referred to as the “Money Market Fund.” The Low-Duration Bond Fund, Medium-Duration Bond Fund, Extended-Duration Bond Fund and Global Bond Fund are together referred to as the “Fixed Income Funds.”

The Defensive Market Strategies Fund, Equity Index Fund, Value Equity Fund, Growth Equity Fund, Small Cap Equity Fund, International Equity Index Fund, International Equity Fund and Emerging Markets Equity Fund are together referred to as the “Equity Funds.”

The Inflation Protected Bond Fund, Flexible Income Fund, Real Assets Fund, Real Estate Securities Fund and the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund are together referred to as the “Real Return Select Funds.”

The International Equity Index Fund commenced operations as a registered investment company on June 1, 2015.

There are two classes of shares issued by the Funds — the Institutional Class and the Investor Class (each, a “Class” and together the “Classes”). The International Equity Index Fund issued the Institutional Class only. The Target Date Funds, Flexible Income Fund, Real Assets Fund and the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund issued the Investor Class only. All Classes of shares have identical voting, dividend and liquidation rights. Income, expenses (other than class specific expenses) and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each Class of shares based upon its relative net assets. The Global Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Bond Fund and Real Estate Securities Fund issued Institutional Class shares on May 1, 2015. The Asset Allocation Funds issued Institutional Class shares on November 23, 2015.

Each Fund is a separate mutual fund with its own investment objective, strategies and risks. The Select Funds invest directly in particular types of fixed-income obligations, stocks and other investments. The Target Date, Asset Allocation and Real Assets Funds primarily invest in a different mix of the Select Funds to meet a specified investment strategy. The Target Date Funds, Asset Allocation Funds and Real Assets Fund are commonly referred to as “Fund of Funds.”

Following the close of business on November 20, 2015, pursuant to the Plan, the Asset Allocation Funds received all of the assets and liabilities of the I Series Funds. The transfer was treated as a non-taxable event and, accordingly, the I Series Funds’ basis in securities transferred reflected historical cost basis as of the date of the transfer. The shareholders of the I Series Funds received Institutional Class Shares of the respective Allocation Fund with an aggregate net asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of their shares in the I Series Fund immediately prior to the transfer.

The plan of reorganization and termination was completed at the close of business on November 20, 2015, with the transfer of all of the assets of each I Series Fund to the corresponding Asset Allocation Fund in exchange solely for the Asset Allocation Fund’s assumption of all of the liabilities of the I Series Fund and Institutional Class shares of the Asset Allocation Fund having an aggregate net asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of the shares held in the I Series Fund.

Because each of the combined I Series and Asset Allocation Funds have been managed as a single Fund since the transfer was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the I Series Fund that has been included in the Asset Allocation Funds’ statements of operations.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the accounting and the preparation of its financial statements. The Funds are investment companies and follow accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 (“ASC 946”). The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), including but not limited to ASC 946. The preparation of financial statements requires the Funds’ management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. The Funds utilize various methods to measure the value of its investments on a recurring basis. Amounts received upon the sale of such investments could differ from estimated values and those differences could be significant.

a. Valuation of Securities

The Funds (except the Money Market Fund) each value securities traded on national securities exchanges or included in national market systems at the last quoted sale price, or official close price, on the principal exchange on which they were traded, or, in the absence of any sale or official close price, at the closing bid price. The valuation committee is comprised of individuals from GuideStone Capital Management (“GSCM” or “Adviser”) and BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. who previously have been identified to the Board of Trustees. Non-exchange traded securities for which an over-the-counter quotation is readily available are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities, excluding asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, are valued at the mean of the last bid and ask prices available, which approximates fair value. Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are generally valued at the last bid price, if available.

Short-term securities maturing in more than 60 days from the valuation date are valued at the mean of the last bid and ask prices; those maturing in 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost which approximates current market value in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act.

Forward foreign exchange contracts are valued based upon closing exchange rates from each respective foreign market.

Futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded.

Options, rights and warrants for which the primary market is a national securities exchange are valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are traded, or, in the absence of any sale, at the closing bid price. Options, rights and warrants not traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Swap agreements are valued daily based upon the terms specific to each agreement with its counterparty. (Please see Note 2i, “Derivative Financial Instruments” for additional information regarding the valuation of swap agreements).

To the extent available, valuations of portfolio securities are provided by independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value according to methods established in good faith by the Board of Trustees. Due to the potential excessive volatility at the time valuations are developed, pricing techniques may materially vary from the actual amounts realized upon sale of the securities.

For securities that principally trade on a foreign market or exchange, a significant gap in time can exist between the time of a particular security’s last trade and the time at which a Fund calculates its Net Asset Value (“NAV”). The closing prices of such

 

282


Table of Contents

securities may no longer reflect their market value at the time the Fund calculates its NAV if an event that could materially affect the value of those securities (a “Significant Event”) has occurred between the time of the security’s last close and the time that the Fund calculates its NAV. A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. If a Fund becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which the Fund calculates its NAV, a Valuation Committee meeting may be called. The Trust uses Interactive Data Corporation (“IDC”) as a third party fair valuation vendor. IDC provides a fair value for foreign equity securities held by the Trust based on certain factors and methodologies applied by IDC in the event that there is movement in the U.S. market that exceeds a specific threshold established by the Valuation Committee in consultation with, and approved by, the Board of Trustees. Such methodologies generally involve tracking valuation correlations between the U.S. market and each non-U.S. security. As part of the valuation procedures, a “confidence interval” is used, when the threshold is exceeded, to determine the level of correlation between the value of a foreign equity security and movements in the U.S. market before a particular security will be fair valued. In the event that the threshold established by the Valuation Committee is exceeded on a specific day, the Trust will typically value non-U.S. equity securities in its portfolio that exceed the applicable confidence interval based upon the fair values provided by IDC.

The Target Date, Asset Allocation and Real Assets Funds value their investments in the underlying Select Funds and the Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund daily at the closing NAV of each respective Fund.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value as the price that a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It establishes and requires disclosure of a fair value hierarchy, separately for each major category of assets and liabilities, that segregates fair value measurements into levels (Levels 1, 2, and 3). Categorizations of fair value measurements, and the criteria used to determine each categorization, are as follows:

 

Level 1

  –   quoted prices in active markets for identical securities which include:

Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, that are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded; and

Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the GuideStone Select Funds, Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund and the Northern Institutional Liquid Assets Portfolio, which are valued at their closing NAV each business day.

Derivative financial instruments such as financial futures contracts and written and purchased put and call options for which market quotations are readily available, that are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded.

 

Level 2

  –   prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) which include:

Equity securities for which there were no sales or closing prices for that day, that are valued at the last quoted bid price or that may be valued using the last available price;

Foreign equity securities for which a Significant Event has occurred and a fair value price is provided by IDC;

 

283


Table of Contents

Debt securities, including restricted securities that are valued based on evaluated quotations received from independent pricing. For corporate bonds, pricing services that utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type as well as dealer supplied prices; and

Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available and are valued at amortized cost which approximates fair value.

Derivative financial instruments such as forward foreign exchange contracts and swap agreements that are valued based on pricing models using inputs observed on actively quoted markets or observable correlated market inputs.

 

Level 3

  –   prices determined using significant unobservable inputs (including the valuation committee’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) which include:

Restricted equity securities, private placements and derivative financial instruments where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used; and

Debt securities, including restricted securities, and derivative financial instruments that are valued based on evaluated quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities.

Valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. Transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the end of the reporting period.

In accordance with FASB “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S.GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”),” management has not presented quantitative disclosures for the securities which are advisor priced or valued by the valuation committee as there have been no adjustments to prices received from third parties as of December 31, 2015.

A valuation hierarchy including information regarding transfers between levels and Level 3 securities, where applicable, is shown at the end of each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

b. Fixed Income Securities

The Fixed Income Funds, Defensive Market Strategies Fund and the Small Cap Equity Fund may invest in mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, commercial mortgage-backed securities, stripped mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. Mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities are interests in pools of loans or other receivables. Mortgage-related securities are created from pools of residential or commercial mortgage loans, including mortgage loans made by savings and loan institutions, mortgage bankers, commercial banks and others. Asset-backed securities are created from many types of assets, including auto loans, credit card receivables, home equity loans and student loans. These securities provide a monthly payment which consists of both interest and principal payments. Interest payments may be determined by fixed or adjustable rates. The rate of pre-payments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security and may have the effect of shortening or extending the effective duration of the security relative to what was anticipated at the time of purchase. The timely payment of principal and interest of certain mortgage-related securities is guaranteed with the full faith and credit of the United States Government. Pools created and guaranteed by non-governmental

 

284


Table of Contents

issuers, including government-sponsored corporations, may be supported by various forms of insurance or guarantees, but there can be no assurance that the private insurers or guarantors can meet their obligations under the insurance policies or guarantee arrangements.

Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (“CMOs”) are debt obligations of a legal entity that are collateralized by mortgages and divided into classes. CMOs are structured into multiple classes, often referred to as “tranches,” with each class bearing a different stated maturity and entitled to a different schedule for payments of principal and interest, including pre-payments. Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (“CMBS”) include securities that reflect an interest in, and are secured by, mortgage loans on commercial real property. Many of the risks of investing in CMBS reflect the risks of investing in the real estate securing the underlying mortgage loans. These risks reflect the effects of local and other economic conditions on real estate markets, the ability of tenants to make loan payments, and the ability of a property to attract and retain tenants. CMOs and CMBS may be less liquid and may exhibit greater price volatility than other types of mortgage- or asset-backed securities. Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities (“SMBS”) are derivative multi-class mortgage securities. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS will have one class receiving some of the interest and most of the principal from the mortgage assets, while the other class will receive most of the interest and the remainder of the principal. In the most extreme case, one class will receive all of the interest (the interest-only or “IO” class), while the other class will receive the entire principal (the principal-only or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income on the Statements of Operations. Because little to no principal will be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a monthly basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income on the Statements of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.

Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase or decrease in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income on the Statements of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.

“TBA” (to be announced) commitments are commitments to purchase or sell mortgage-backed securities for a fixed price at a future date, typically not exceeding 45 days. TBAs may be considered securities in themselves and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to settlement date. This risk is in addition to the risk of decline in each Fund’s other assets. Unsettled TBAs are valued at the current market value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described in the section entitled “Valuation of Securities”.

The Low-Duration Bond Fund and Medium-Duration Bond Fund may enter into dollar roll transactions, pursuant to which they sell a mortgage-backed TBA or security and simultaneously purchase a similar, but not identical, TBA with the same issuer, rate and terms. The Funds may execute a “roll” to obtain better underlying mortgage securities or to increase yield. The Funds account for dollar roll transactions as purchases and sales, which has the effect of increasing their portfolio turnover rates. Risks associated with dollar rolls are that actual mortgages received by the Funds may be less favorable than those anticipated or that counterparties may fail to perform under the terms of the contracts. At December 31, 2015, there were no dollar roll transactions.

U.S. Government securities are obligations of and, in certain cases, guaranteed by, the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The U.S. Government does not guarantee the NAV of the Funds’ shares. Some U.S. Government securities, such as Treasury bills, notes and bonds, and securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA” or “Ginnie Mae”), are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States Government; others, such as those of the Federal Home Loan Bank, are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “U.S.

 

285


Table of Contents

Treasury”); others, such as those of the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”), are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency’s obligations; and still others, such as those of the Student Loan Marketing Association, are supported only by the credit of the instrumentality. U.S. Government securities may include zero coupon securities, which do not distribute interest on a current basis and tend to be subject to greater risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities.

Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government) include FNMA and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). FNMA is a government-sponsored corporation, the common stock of which is owned entirely by private stockholders. FNMA purchases conventional (i.e., not insured or guaranteed by any government agency) residential mortgages from a list of approved seller/servicers which include state and federally chartered savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, commercial banks and credit unions and mortgage bankers. Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA, but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. FHLMC issues Participation Certificates (“PCs”), which are pass-through securities, each representing an undivided interest in a pool of residential mortgages. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but PCs are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government.

c. Foreign Currency Translations

Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions.

The Funds isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

d. Loan Participations

The Fixed Income Funds, the Small Cap Equity Fund and the Flexible Income Fund may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owed to lenders or lending syndicates by corporate borrowers. Investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. The holder may invest in multiple series of a loan, which may have varying terms and carry different associated risks. The holder generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, these instruments may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the holder has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt of payments by the lender from the borrower.

The Fixed Income Funds, the Small Cap Equity Fund and the Flexible Income Fund may invest in floating rate loans some of which may be unfunded corporate loan commitments (“commitments”). Commitments may obligate the holder to furnish temporary financing to a borrower until permanent financing can be arranged. The holder may receive a commitment fee based

 

286


Table of Contents

on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit portion of a floating rate loan. In certain circumstances, the holder may receive a prepayment penalty fee upon the prepayment of a floating rate loan by a borrower. Fees earned or paid are recorded as a component of interest income or interest expense on the Statements of Operations.

e. REITs

The Real Estate Securities Fund invests substantial assets in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) that involve risks not associated with investing in stocks. Risks include declines in the value of real estate, general and economic conditions, changes in the value of the underlying property and defaults by borrowers. The value of assets in the real estate industry may go through cycles of relative underperformance and outperformance in comparison to equity securities markets in general.

Dividend income is recorded using management’s estimate of the income included in distributions received from REIT investments. The actual amounts of income, return of capital and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after its fiscal year-end and may differ from the estimated amount. Estimates of income are adjusted in the Funds to the actual amounts when the amounts are determined.

f. Repurchase Agreements

Each Fund may agree to purchase securities from financial institutions subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase them at a mutually agreed upon date and price. It is the Fund’s policy that repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by U.S. Treasury and Government Agency securities. All collateral is held by the Fund’s custodian bank or a bank with which the custodian bank has entered into a subcustodian agreement, or is segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, if the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if the seller enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.

Repurchase transactions are entered into by the Funds under Master Repurchase Agreements (“MRA”) which permit the Funds, under certain circumstances including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables under the MRA with collateral held and/or posted to the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from the Fund.

At December 31, 2015, the open repurchase agreements by counterparty which are subject to an MRA on a net payment basis are as follows:

g. Short Sales

A short sale is a transaction in which a Fund sells a security it does not own. The Fund’s obligation to replace the security borrowed and sold short will be fully collateralized at all times by cash equivalents deposited in an account with the Fund’s custodian. If the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time the Fund replaces the borrowed security, the Fund will realize a loss; and if the price declines during the period, the Fund will realize a gain. Any realized gain will be decreased, and any realized loss increased, by the amount of transaction costs.

The Equity Funds may sell short exchange-listed equity futures contracts to reduce market exposure. The Target Date Funds, Asset Allocation Funds, Fixed Income Funds and Small Cap Equity Fund may sell short U.S. Treasury securities and exchange-listed U.S. Treasury futures contracts to reduce market exposure. The Low-Duration Bond and Medium-Duration Bond Funds will occasionally enter into a short sale to initiate a dollar roll transaction. The Defensive Market Strategies Fund may establish short positions in stocks of companies with a market value of up to 30% of the Fund’s assets. The International Equity Fund may establish short positions in stocks of foreign companies with a market value of up to 7% of the Fund’s assets.

At December 31, 2015, the value of securities sold short in the International Equity Fund amounted to $66,003,436.

h. Synthetic Convertible Instruments

The Defensive Market Strategies Fund invests in synthetic convertible instruments. Synthetic convertible instruments are hybrid financial instruments that generally combine both debt and equity characteristics into a single note form. Income received from synthetic convertible instruments will be recorded as realized gains in the Statement of Operations and may be based on the performance of an underlying equity security, an equity index, or an option position. The risks of investing in synthetic convertible instruments include unfavorable price movements in the underlying security and the credit risk of the issuing financial institution. There may be no guarantee of a return of principal with synthetic convertible instruments and the appreciation potential may be limited. Synthetic convertible instruments may be more volatile and less liquid than other investments held by the Fund.

i. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Funds may engage in various portfolio strategies to seek to increase their return by hedging their portfolios against adverse movements in the equity, debt and currency markets. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the contract if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The Funds, in their normal course of business, may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ exposure may include future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred.

Financial Futures Contracts — The Funds (except the Money Market Fund) may purchase or sell financial futures contracts and the options on such futures contracts for the purpose of hedging risk on existing securities, demonstrating purchase of securities or gaining market exposure on cash balances. Financial futures contracts are contracts for the

 

288


Table of Contents

delivery of securities at a specified future date at an agreed upon price or yield. Upon entering into a contract, the Funds deposit and maintain as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected.

Pursuant to the contract, the Funds agree to pay to or receive from the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such payments or receipts are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Funds as unrealized gains or losses until the contract is closed or settled.

Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there will be an imperfect price correlation between the futures and the underlying securities. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a futures position prior to its maturity date. Third, the purchase of a futures contract involves the risk that a Fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate a futures transaction. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Foreign Currency Options and Futures — The Fixed Income Funds, Defensive Market Strategies Fund, Small Cap Equity Fund and International Equity Fund may also enter into futures contracts on foreign currencies and related options on transactions as a short or long hedge against possible variations in foreign exchange rates.

Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts — Certain Funds may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge against adverse exchange rate fluctuation to the U.S. dollar or between different foreign currencies in connection with either specific security transactions or portfolio positions. Each contract is valued daily and the change in value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed, a realized gain or loss is recorded equal to the difference between the opening value and the closing value of the contract. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds could be exposed to risk if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of the contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

Options — Certain Funds are authorized to write and purchase put and call options. The risk in writing a call option is that the Funds give up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases. The risk in writing a put option is that the Funds may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in purchasing an option is that the Funds pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. The Funds also have the additional risk of being unable to enter into a closing transaction at an acceptable price if a liquid secondary market does not exist. The Funds also may write over-the-counter options where completing the obligation depends upon the credit standing of the other party and that party’s ability to perform. Option contracts also involve the risk that they may not work as intended due to unanticipated developments in market conditions or other causes.

Options purchased are recorded as an asset, and written options are recorded as liabilities to the extent of premiums paid or received. Each Fund will realize a gain or loss when the option transaction expires or closes. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a written put option or the cost of a security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of the premium received or paid.

When a Fund writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Certain Funds may write swaption contracts to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and to enhance portfolio yield. Swaption contracts written by the Funds represent an option that gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a previously agreed upon swap contract on a future date. If a written call swaption is exercised, the writer will enter a swap and is obligated to pay the fixed-rate and receive a floating rate in exchange. If a written put swaption is

 

289


Table of Contents

exercised, the writer will enter a swap and is obligated to pay the floating rate and receive a fixed rate in exchange. Swaptions are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers. When a Fund writes a swaption, the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the swaption.

Entering into a swaption contract involves, to varying degrees, the elements of credit, market and interest rate risk in excess of the associated option and swap contract amounts reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds bear the market risk arising from any change in index values or interest rates.

Swap Agreements — Each Select Fund, except the Money Market Fund, may enter into swap agreements. The Equity Funds may enter into equity swap contracts and the Fixed Income Funds and the Small Cap Equity Fund may enter into interest rate and credit default swaps. The Fixed Income Funds and International Equity Fund may enter into cross-currency swaps, and each Select Fund may enter into total return swaps.

Swap agreements are privately negotiated agreements between a Fund and a counterparty to exchange or swap investment cash flows, assets, foreign currencies or market-linked returns at specified, future intervals. A swap may be entered into in order to, among other things, change the maturity of a Fund’s portfolio, to protect a Fund’s value from changes in interest rates, to expose a Fund to a different security or market, or to help a Fund achieve a strategy relative to an index or other benchmark. By entering into a swap agreement, a Fund is exposed to the risk of unanticipated movements in interest rates or in the value of an underlying security or index (or the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation under the agreement). Credit default swaps involve the payment of amounts based on a specified rate multiplied by a notional amount as well as upon an event of default. In connection with these agreements, securities are set aside as collateral by the Fund’s custodian.

Swaps are marked-to-market daily based upon values from third party vendors or quotations from market makers to the extent available; and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. In the event that market quotations are not readily available or deemed reliable, certain swap agreements may be valued pursuant to guidelines established by the Board of Trustees. In the event that market quotes are not readily available and the swap cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the swap will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee, generally based upon recommendations provided by the Fund’s sub-adviser.

Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and represent payments made or received upon entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap agreement and prevailing market conditions (credit spreads, currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other relevant factors). These upfront payments are recorded as realized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss on the Statements of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by a Fund are included as part of realized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations.

Certain of the Funds’ derivative agreements contain provisions that require the Fund to maintain a predetermined level of net assets, and/or provide limits regarding the decline of the Fund’s NAV over one-month, three-month and 12-month periods. If a Fund were to violate such provisions, the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment or demand immediate collateralization on derivative instruments in net liability positions. For the year ended December 31, 2015, all of the Funds maintained the required level of net assets and/or the NAVs of the Funds did not decline below the limits set forth in the derivative agreements.

Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.

Credit Default Swaps — Credit default swap (“CDS”) agreements involve one party making a stream of payments (referred to as the buyer of protection) to another party (the seller of protection) in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event for the referenced entity, obligation or index. As a seller of protection on CDS agreements, a Fund will generally receive from the buyer of protection a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. As the seller, a Fund would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, a Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap.

Upfront payments made or received in connection with CDS agreements are amortized over the expected life of the CDS agreements as unrealized gains or losses on swap agreements. The change in value of the CDS agreements is recorded daily as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. A realized gain or loss is recorded upon a credit event (as defined in the CDS agreement) or the maturity or termination of the agreement.

The sub-advisers monitor a variety of factors including cash flow assumptions, market activity, market sentiment and valuation as part of their ongoing process of assessing payment and performance risk. As payment and performance risk increases, the value of a CDS increases, resulting in recognition of unrealized gains for long positions and unrealized losses for short positions. Conversely, as payment and performance risk decreases, unrealized gains are recognized for short positions and unrealized losses are recognized for long positions. Any current or future declines in the fair value of the swap may be partially offset by upfront payments received by the Fund as a seller of protection if applicable. The change in value is recorded within unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the occurrence of a credit event or the termination of the swap, at which time a realized gain (loss) is recorded.

If a Fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Fund will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. If a Fund is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Fund will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. Recovery values are assumed by market makers considering either industry standard recovery rates or entity specific factors and considerations until a credit event occurs. If a credit event has occurred, the recovery value is determined by a facilitated auction whereby a minimum number of allowable broker bids, together with a specified valuation method, are used to calculate the settlement value.

CDS agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event. If a credit event occurs and cash settlement is not elected, a variety of other deliverable obligations may be delivered in lieu of the specific referenced obligation. The ability to deliver other obligations may result in a cheapest-to-deliver option (the buyer of protection’s right to choose the deliverable obligation with the lowest value following a credit event). A Fund may use CDS on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where a Fund owns or has exposure to the referenced obligation) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default.

CDS agreements on asset-backed securities involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event. Unlike CDS on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, deliverable obligations in most instances would be limited to the specific referenced obligation as performance for asset-backed securities can vary across deals. Prepayments, principal paydowns, and other write down or loss events on the underlying loans will reduce the outstanding principal balance of the referenced obligation. These reductions may be temporary or permanent as defined under the terms of the swap agreement and the notional amount for the swap agreement will be adjusted by corresponding amounts. A Fund may use CDS on asset-backed securities to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the referenced obligation or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular referenced obligation’s default. At December 31, 2015, there were no investments in CDS agreements on asset-backed securities.

CDS agreements on credit indices involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a write-down, principal shortfall, interest shortfall or default of all or part of the referenced entities comprising the credit index. A credit index is a list of a basket of credit instruments or exposures designed to be representative of some part of the credit market as a whole. These indices are made up of reference credits that are judged by a poll of dealers to be the most liquid entities in the CDS market based on the sector of the index. Components of the indices may include, but are not limited to, investment grade securities, high yield securities, asset-backed securities, emerging markets, and/or various credit ratings within each sector. Credit indices are traded using CDS with standardized terms including a fixed spread and standard maturity dates. An index CDS references all the names in the index, and if there is a default, the credit event is settled based on that name’s weight in the index. The composition of the indices changes periodically, usually every six months, and for most indices, each name has an equal weight in the index. A Fund may use CDS on credit indices to hedge a portfolio of CDS or bonds with a CDS on indices which is less expensive than it would be to buy many CDS to achieve a similar effect. CDS on indices are benchmarks for protecting investors owning bonds against default, and traders use them to speculate on changes in credit quality.

Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value of CDS agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country as of period end are disclosed in the footnotes to the Schedules of Investments and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. For CDS agreements on asset-backed securities and credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Fund as a seller of protection could be required to make under a CDS agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection CDS agreements entered into by a Fund for the same referenced entity or entities.

CDS involve greater risks than if the Funds had invested in the referenced obligation directly. In addition to general market risks, CDS are subject to liquidity risk and counterparty credit risk. The Funds enter into CDS with counterparties meeting defined criteria for financial strength. A buyer also may lose its investment and recover nothing should a credit event not occur. If a credit event did occur, the value of the referenced obligation received by the seller, coupled with the periodic payments previously received, may be less than the full notional value it pays to the buyer, resulting in a loss of value.

Exchange Traded Swap Agreements — Exchange traded swaps are either interest rate or CDS agreements brokered by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Intercontinental Exchange (the “Exchanges”) where the Exchanges are the counterparty to both the buyer and seller of protection. Exchange traded swaps involve a lesser degree of risk because the Exchanges, as counterparties, monitor risk factors for the involved parties. Exchange traded swaps are subject to general market risks and to liquidity risk. Pursuant to the agreement, the Funds agree to pay to or receive from the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract (the “Margin”) and daily interest on the margin. In the case of exchange traded interest rate swaps, the daily settlement also includes the daily portion of interest. Such payments are recorded by the Funds as unrealized gains or losses until the contract is closed or settled.

Exchange traded swaps require no payments at the beginning of the measurement period nor are there liquidation payments at the termination of the swap.

Cross-Currency Swap Agreements — Cross-currency swap agreements involve two parties exchanging two different currencies with an agreement to reverse the exchange at a later date at specified exchange rates. The exchange of currencies at the inception date of the contract takes place at the current spot rate. The re-exchange at maturity may take place at the same exchange rate, a specified rate, or the then current spot rate. Interest payments, if applicable, are made between the parties based on interest rates available in the two currencies at the inception of the contract. The terms of cross-currency swap contracts may extend for many years. Cross-currency swaps are usually negotiated with commercial and investment banks. Some cross-currency swaps may not provide for exchanging principal cash flows but only for exchanging interest cash flows.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements — Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by a Fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest with respect to the notional amount of principal. Certain forms of interest rate swap agreements may include: (i) interest rate caps, under which, in return for a premium, one party agrees to make payments to the other to the extent that interest rates exceed a specified rate, or “cap”, (ii) interest rate floors, under which, in return for a premium, one party agrees to make payments to the other to the extent that interest rates fall below a specified rate, or “floor”, (iii) interest rate collars, under which a party sells a cap and purchases a floor or vice versa in an attempt to protect itself against interest rate movements exceeding given minimum or maximum levels, (iv) callable interest rate swaps, under which the counterparty may terminate the swap transaction in whole at zero cost by a predetermined date and time prior to the maturity date, (v) spread locks, which allow the interest rate swap users to lock in the forward differential (or spread) between the interest rate swap rate and a specified benchmark, or (vi) basis swap, under which two parties can exchange variable interest rates based on different money markets.

Total Return Swap Agreements — Total return swap agreements on commodities involve commitments where exchanged cash flows are based on the price of a commodity and in return a Fund receives either fixed or determined by floating price rate. One party would receive payments based on the market value of the commodity involved and pay a fixed amount. Total return swap agreements on indices involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return. One counterparty pays out the total return of a specific reference asset, which may be an equity, index, or bond, and in return receives a regular stream of payments. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, a Fund will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty.

FASB “Derivatives and Hedging” includes required disclosure for (i) the nature and terms of the derivative, reasons for entering into the derivative, the events or circumstances that would require the seller to perform under the derivative, and the current status of the payment/performance risk of the derivative, (ii) the maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) the seller could be required to make under the derivative, (iii) the fair value of the derivative, and (iv) the nature of any recourse provisions and assets held either as collateral or by third parties. FASB “Guarantees” require additional disclosures about the current status of the payment/performance risk of a guarantee. All of this information has been incorporated for the current period as part of the Schedules of Investments within the Swap agreements outstanding disclosure and in the Notes to Financial Statements.

As of December 31, 2015, the Low-Duration Bond Fund and the Medium-Duration Bond Fund are the buyers (“receiving protection”) on a total notional amount of $1,750,000 and $8,160,000, respectively, and the sellers (“providing protection”) on a total notional amount of $1,200,000 and $14,650,000, respectively. The notional amounts of the swaps are not recorded in the financial statements; however, the notional amount does approximate the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Funds could be required to make if the Funds were the seller of protection and a credit event was to occur. Those credit default swaps for which the Funds are providing protection at balance sheet date are summarized as follows:

Offsetting of Financial and Derivative Assets and Liabilities

Certain Funds are parties to International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreements (“MA”) with various counterparties that govern over-the-counter derivative and foreign exchange contracts entered into from time to time. The ISDA MA may contain provisions regarding, among other things, the parties’ general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral requirements, events of default and early termination. With respect to certain counterparties, in accordance with the terms of the ISDA MA, collateral posted to the Fund is held in a segregated account by the Fund’s custodian and with respect to those amounts which can be sold or repledged, are presented in the Fund’s portfolio or Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to an ISDA MA in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

At December 31, 2015, derivative assets and liabilities (by type) held by the Funds are as follows:

j. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders

The Low-Duration Bond Fund, Medium-Duration Bond Fund, Extended-Duration Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Bond Fund, Global Bond Fund and Flexible Income Fund declare and pay dividends from net investment income monthly. The Money Market Fund declares income dividends daily and pays them monthly. Each of the Defensive Market Strategies Fund, Equity Index Fund, Real Estate Securities Fund, Value Equity Fund and Growth Equity Fund declares and pays dividends from net investment income semi-annually. Each of the other Funds (including all the Target Date Funds and Asset Allocation Funds) declares and pays dividends from net investment income annually. Each Fund also distributes to its shareholders at least annually any realized net capital gains and net gains, if any, from certain foreign currency transactions. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

k. Expenses

Expenses arising in connection with a Fund are charged directly to that Fund. Expenses common to all Funds are generally allocated to each Fund in proportion to their relative net assets. Each Class of shares bears its pro-rata portion of expenses attributable to its Class, except that each Class separately bears expenses related specifically to that Class, such as shareholder reporting, registration, transfer agent, shareholder servicing and distribution fees.

l. Security Transactions, Income and Realized Gains and Losses

Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are purchased or sold (the trade date). Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued daily, including the amortization of market premium and the accretion of market discount using the effective interest method. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are on an identified cost basis.

3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS

a. Investment Advisory Fees (Affiliate)

Pursuant to a separate investment advisory agreement, GSCM acts as the Adviser to the Funds. As Adviser, it supervises the investments of the Funds and for such services is paid a fee. GSCM and the Trust have entered into sub-advisory agreements with various sub-advisers to manage each Select Fund’s investments. Under the general supervision of GSCM, the sub-advisers make the day-to-day investment decisions for the Select Funds, and for such services, each sub-adviser receives a fee from the Funds. The aggregate advisory fees and sub-adviser fees are included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and Statements of Operations under “Investment advisory fees”.

The advisory fees paid to GSCM and aggregate sub-advisory fees paid to the sub-advisers are computed daily based upon the net assets of each Fund. The actual advisory fees accrued and the sub-advisory fees accrued during the year ended December 31, 2015, based upon average daily net assets, were as follows:

The Statement of Operations “Expenses waived/reimbursed net of amount recaptured” for the Money Market Fund includes shareholder servicing fee waiver and other waivers.

b. Shareholder Servicing Fees (Affiliate)

The Board of Trustees has adopted a Shareholder Service Plan for the Investor Class of each Fund. Under this Plan from January 1 to April 30, 2015, the Investor Class of each Select Fund, with the exception of the Real Assets Fund, was authorized to pay fees of 0.24% of average daily net assets to parties that provide services for and maintain shareholder accounts. Beginning May 1, 2015, each Fund is authorized to pay fees of 0.25% of average daily net assets to parties that provide services for and maintain shareholder accounts.

GuideStone Financial Resources (or its affiliate) voluntarily agreed to waive shareholder servicing fees and/or reimburse expenses for the Investor Class of the Money Market Fund to the extent necessary to maintain a minimum daily net yield of at least 0.01%. This voluntary shareholder servicing fee waiver and expense reimbursement may be changed or terminated with the consent of the Board of Trustees at any time.

Each Fund in turn agrees to reimburse GSCM for any operating expenses in excess of the expense limitation paid, waived or assumed by GSCM for that Fund during the limitation period, provided GSCM would not be entitled to reimbursement for any amount that would cause operating expenses to exceed the expense limitation during the year in which the reimbursement would be made, and provided further that no amount will be reimbursed by the Fund more than three years after the year in which it was incurred or waived by GSCM.

4. SECURITIES LENDING

Through an agreement with The Northern Trust Company (“Northern Trust”) (the Funds’ custodian) the Select Funds may lend portfolio securities to certain brokers, dealers and other financial institutions that pay the Select Funds a negotiated fee. The Select Funds receive cash or U.S. government securities as collateral against the loaned securities in an amount at least equal to the market value of the loaned securities. The Funds continue to own the loaned securities and the securities remain in the investment portfolio. However, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. Cash collateral has been invested in a short-term money market fund of Northern Trust, an affiliate of the Funds, which invests in securities that satisfy the quality requirements of Rule 2a-7 and have short maturities. This investment is presented on the Funds’ Schedules of Investments. The Funds do not have control of non-cash securities lending collateral: as such, this amount is not presented on the Funds’ Schedules of Investments. At December 31, 2015, the market values of loaned securities and collateral received were as follows:

Securities lending transactions are entered into by the Funds under a Securities Lending Authorization Agreement which permit the Funds, under certain circumstances including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts to be received and create one single net payment due to or from the Fund.

7. BANK BORROWINGS

The Board of Trustees approved the renewal of a credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (the Bank) dated November 27, 2015 through November 25, 2016. The terms of the credit agreement did not change with the renewal. The agreement permits the Funds to borrow cash from the Bank up to a limit of $50 million, collectively. Each Fund was individually, and not jointly, liable for its particular advances, if any, under the line of credit. Interest is charged to each Fund based on its borrowings at a rate equal to the Bank Prime plus 0.60% or the Wall Street Journal LIBOR One Month Floating Rate plus 1.00%. Each Fund also pays a facility fee equal to its pro rata share of the amount of the credit facility at a rate of 0.23% per annum.

8. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

Each Fund’s policy is to comply with all sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, that apply to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and capital gains to shareholders. No provision for income or excise taxes is thus required. Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes.

The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they invest in issuers existing or operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on income earned. The Funds accrue such taxes when the related income is earned. Gains realized by the Funds on the sale of securities in certain countries are subject to non-U.S. taxes. The Funds record a liability based on unrealized gains to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities. For year ended December 31, 2015, the International Equity Fund and Emerging Markets Equity Fund accrued non-U.S. taxes on unrealized gains of $974 and $20,034, respectively.

Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements except as noted above. The Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. However, management’s conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to new tax laws, regulations and administrative interpretations (including court decisions). Each of the Funds’ federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years (years ended December 31, 2012 through December 31, 2015) remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. In regard to foreign taxes only, certain Funds have open tax years in certain foreign countries they invest in that may date back to the inception of the Funds.

The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the Funds. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for futures and options transactions, foreign currency transactions, paydowns, losses deferred due to wash sales, straddles and investments in Passive Foreign Investment Companies (“PFIC’s”). Distributions during the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, were characterized as follows for tax purposes:

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, Funds will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010, for an unlimited period. Such losses are presented in the table above under the column heading “Unlimited.” However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term losses as under previous law.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the following Funds utilized capital loss carryforwards to offset capital gains:

The differences between book basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the deferral of losses on straddles, gains on constructive sales and investments in PFIC’s, partnerships and other securities with book and tax cost differences.

At December 31, 2015, capital contributions, accumulated undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized gain (loss) from investments have been adjusted for current period permanent book/tax differences which arose principally from differing book/tax treatments of PFICs, paydown losses, net operating losses, swaps, foreign currency transactions, distributions received from regulated investment companies, defaulted bonds, reclassifications of dividends paid and non-deductible expenses. Adjustments were also made due to the transfer of tax attributes received from the reorganization of the I Series Funds. The following amounts were reclassified within the capital accounts:

          Undistributed

9. MARKET AND CREDIT RISK

In the normal course of business, the Funds trade financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where the risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk) or due to the failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risks).

Market Risks — A Fund’s investments in derivatives and other financial instruments expose the Fund to various risks such as, but not limited to, interest rate, foreign currency, equity and commodity risks.

Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. As nominal interest rates rise, the value of certain fixed income securities held by a Fund is likely to decrease. A nominal interest rate can be described as the sum of a real interest rate and an expected inflation rate. Fixed income securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities with shorter durations. Duration is useful primarily as a measure of the sensitivity of a fixed income’s market price to interest rate (i.e. yield) movements.

Table of Contents

If a Fund invests directly in foreign currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, foreign currencies, or in derivatives that provide exposure to foreign currencies, it will be subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the base currency of the Fund, or, in the case of hedging positions, that the Fund’s base currency will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time for a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, or by the imposition of currency controls or other political developments in the United States or abroad. As a result, a Fund’s investments in foreign currency denominated securities may reduce the returns of the Fund.

The market values of equities, such as common stocks and preferred stocks, or equity related investments such as futures and options, may decline due to general market conditions which are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment. Market values may also decline due to factors which affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. Equity securities and equity related investments generally have greater market price volatility than fixed income securities.

A Fund’s investments in commodity-linked derivative instruments may subject the Fund to greater market price volatility than investments in traditional securities. The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, political and regulatory developments.

In countries with limited or developing markets, investments may present greater risks than in more developed markets and the prices of such investments may be volatile. The consequences of political, social or economic changes in these markets may have disruptive effects on the market prices of these investments and the income they generate, as well as the Fund’s ability to repatriate such amounts.

Credit and Counterparty Risks — A Fund will be exposed to credit risk on parties with whom it trades and will also bear the risk of settlement default. A Fund minimizes concentrations of credit risk by undertaking transactions with a large number of customers and counterparties on recognized and reputable exchanges. A Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security, or the counterparty to a derivatives contract, repurchase agreement or a loan of portfolio securities, is unable or unwilling to make timely principal and/or interest payments, or to otherwise honor its obligations. Securities are subject to varying degrees of credit risk, which are often reflected in credit ratings.

Similar to credit risk, a Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an institution or other entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions will default. Financial assets, which potentially expose a Fund to counterparty risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties and investments. The investment advisers minimize counterparty risks to the Funds by performing extensive reviews of each counterparty and obtaining approval from the Counterparty Risk Committee prior to entering into transactions with a third party. All transactions in listed securities are settled/paid for upon delivery using approved counterparties. The risk of default is considered minimal, as delivery of securities sold is only made once a Fund has received payment. Payment is made on a purchase once the securities have been delivered by the counterparty. The trade will fail if either party fails to meet its obligation.

10. RECENT SEC RULE AMENDMENT

On July 23, 2014, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to money market fund regulations, which structurally change the way that certain money market funds will be required to operate. These amendments are generally not effective until sometime in 2016.

The Board, on behalf of the Money Market Fund, has approved an investment policy in order for the Fund to meet the definition of a “government money market fund” under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Under amended Rule 2a-7, a government money market fund is a money market fund that invests at least 99.5% of its total assets in U.S. government securities, cash, and/or repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized by U.S. government securities or cash. These changes will become effective on or about May 1, 2016.

11. REGULATORY EXAMINATIONS

Federal and state regulatory authorities from time to time make inquiries and conduct examinations regarding compliance by the Trust and its affiliates with securities and other laws and regulations affecting the Funds. There are currently no such matters which the Trust and its affiliates believe will be material to these financial statements.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 26, 2016 the Board approved a plan to liquidate the Real Assets Fund on or about April 29, 2016.

Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date that the financial statements were available to be issued. All subsequent events determined to be relevant and material to the financial statements have been appropriately recorded or disclosed.

These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2015 by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and transfer agents of the investee funds, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

BOARD REVIEW OF ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (Unaudited)

As required by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of GuideStone Funds (the “Trust”), including the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), recently considered the renewal of (i) the investment advisory agreement between GuideStone Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser” or “GSCM”) and the Trust on behalf of the Date Target, Asset Allocation and Select Funds (each a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”) (the “Advisory Agreement”); (ii) the sub-advisory agreements among the Adviser, each sub-adviser and the Trust on behalf of each Select Fund; and (iii) the sub-advisory agreement among the Adviser, Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC (“Parametric”) and the Trust on behalf of each Fund participating in the cash overlay program (“Cash Overlay Program”) (items ii and iii referred to collectively as the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”). The Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreements presented for renewal (each, an “Agreement,” and collectively, the “Agreements”) were approved for an additional one-year term, except as noted below, at a meeting of the Board held on September 17-18, 2015. The Board’s decision to approve the Agreements reflects the exercise of its business judgment to continue each existing arrangement. In approving the Agreements, the Board considered information provided by the Adviser, each applicable sub-adviser and a consulting firm engaged by the Adviser with the assistance and advice of counsel to the Independent Trustees (“Independent Counsel”) and counsel to the Trust. Because the Board had recently approved them for an initial two-year term, the following agreements were not subject to annual renewal at the September 17-18, 2015 Board meeting: the Sub-Advisory Agreements for the Growth Equity Fund with Jackson Square Partners, LLC (“Jackson Square”) and Loomis, Sayles & Company, L.P. (“Loomis”).

The Board’s consideration of various factors and its conclusions with respect to such factors formed the basis for the Board’s determination to continue the Agreements. The factors considered by the Board included, but were not limited to: (i) the personnel resources of the Adviser and sub-advisers; (ii) the experience and expertise of the Adviser and sub-advisers; (iii) the financial capabilities and resources of the Adviser and sub-advisers; (iv) the compliance procedures and history of the Adviser and sub-advisers; (v) the performance of the Fund or portfolio account in comparison to relevant benchmarks, peer universes of similarly managed funds and the Adviser’s and sub-advisers’ other clients; (vi) the amount of the contractual advisory fee in comparison to similarly managed funds and the Adviser’s and sub-advisers’ other clients and the effect of any fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangement; (vii) the total expenses of the Fund in comparison to similarly managed funds and the use of past and anticipated expense caps; (viii) the profitability of the Adviser and sub-advisers with respect to the Fund or portfolio account and its overall business, as well as the effect of fee waivers and expense caps on profitability; (ix) the extent of any economies of scale and whether the fee structure reflects such economies of scale through breakpoints; (x) the existence of any collateral benefits realized by the Adviser and sub-advisers, such as affiliated brokerage arrangements or the use of soft dollars; and (xi) the existence of any collateral benefits realized by the Fund resulting from its relationship with the Adviser and sub-advisers. In addition, with respect to the Funds that utilize a multi-manager approach (i.e., the Fund is advised by multiple sub-advisers), the Board considered the ongoing role each sub-adviser plays in the overall structure of the Fund’s portfolio, including how each sub-adviser’s strategy complements the strategies of the other sub-advisers.

In its decision to renew the Agreements, the Board was also mindful of the potential disruptions of the Trust’s operations and various risks, uncertainties and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision to terminate or not renew an Agreement. The Board also evaluated whether the approval of each Agreement is in the best interests of the applicable Fund and its shareholders. No one factor was determinative in the Board’s consideration of the Agreements.

The Board undertook a review of the terms of the Agreements and the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and each applicable sub-adviser. The Board conducted its analysis on a Fund-by-Fund basis with respect to the Adviser and each applicable sub-adviser. The Adviser provided the Board with substantial detailed information in the form of reports about each Date Target Fund, Asset Allocation Fund, Select Fund, applicable sub-advisory firm and the Adviser prior to and during the meeting, which addressed the factors listed previously. The Adviser also provided additional information about the Adviser and each sub-adviser in presentations made during the meeting and responded to questions from the Trustees. In addition, the Independent Trustees met separately in executive session with counsel to the Independent Trustees to discuss and consider information presented in connection with the continuation of the Agreements as well as the Trustees’ responsibilities and duties in approving the Agreements.

BOARD APPROVAL OF CONTINUATION OF THE ADVISORY AGREEMENT WITH GSCM

In considering the renewal of the existing Advisory Agreement with GSCM, the Board took into account all the materials provided prior to and during the meeting, the presentations made during the meeting and the comprehensive discussions during the meeting, including the discussions between the Independent Trustees and their Independent Counsel during the executive sessions.

The Board examined the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Funds. The Board evaluated the Adviser’s experience in serving as an investment adviser, including overseeing and managing the allocation of each Fund’s assets among the sub-advisers and continually reviewing the investment performance of each Fund, the nature and quality of the services provided by each sub-adviser for that Fund, and recommending changes to the sub-advisers as and when appropriate. The Board considered the experience of key personnel at the Adviser in providing investment management and administrative services and the systems used by such persons and the ability of the Adviser to attract and retain capable personnel. The Board considered the reputation, compliance history, compliance program and financial condition of the Adviser. The Board also considered the terms of the advisory and sub-advisory agreements and the responsibilities that the Adviser has as investment adviser to the Funds, including oversight of sub-adviser compliance with each Fund’s policies and objectives, oversight of general Fund compliance, including compliance with social restrictions and the implementation of Board directives as they relate to the Funds. The Board concluded that each Fund is likely to benefit from the nature, extent and quality of these services as a result of the Adviser’s experience, personnel, operations and resources. In their deliberations, the Board members did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors deliberated upon, among others.

The Board also examined fee and expense information for the Select Funds, as compared to other funds in the Funds’ asset-stratified peer groups for the Investor Class, provided by the report of an outside consulting firm, as of June 30, 2015. The Board took into account that the management fees, net of any fee waiver or expense reimbursement, and as compared to similar funds with similar asset levels, for the Money Market, Low-Duration Bond, Medium-Duration Bond and Inflation Protected Bond Funds ranked in the first quartile; the Equity Index, Global Bond, Defensive Market Strategies, Real Estate Securities, Value Equity and International Equity Funds ranked in the second quartile; the Extended-Duration Bond, Flexible Income, Growth Equity, Small Cap Equity and Emerging Markets Equity Funds ranked in the third quartile; and the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund ranked in the fourth quartile. The Board also evaluated the total expense ratios for other funds in the Funds’ asset-stratified peer groups and determined that each Fund’s total expense ratio, with the exception of the Money Market, Extended-Duration Bond, Flexible Income, International Equity and Global Natural Resources Equity Funds, was the same as, or lower than, the median total expense ratio for such other funds. The Board took into account that the total expense ratio for the Extended-Duration Bond, Flexible Income, International Equity and Global Natural Resources Equity Funds ranked in the third quartile, and that the Money Market Fund ranked in the fourth quartile, among similar funds at similar asset levels. The Board inquired into factors that contributed to a Fund’s ranking in the third or fourth quartile for expenses among its peer group.

The Board also examined the fee and expense information for the Select Funds, as compared to other funds in the peer groups for the Institutional Class, provided by the Mack report, as of June 30, 2015. The Board determined that the management fees, net of any fee waiver or expense reimbursement, for the Real Estate Securities Fund ranked in the first quartile; the Money Market, Low-Duration Bond, Medium-Duration Bond, Inflation Protected Bond, Global Bond, Value Equity and International Equity Funds ranked in the second quartile; the Extended-Duration Bond, Defensive Market Strategies, Equity Index, Growth Equity and International Equity Index Funds ranked in the third quartile; and the Small Cap Equity and Emerging Markets Equity Funds ranked in the fourth quartile among each Fund’s broad peer group. The Board also evaluated the total expense ratios for other funds in each Fund’s broad peer group and determined that each Fund’s total expense ratio was the same as, or lower than, the median total expense ratio for such other funds, except for the Money Market, Small Cap Equity, International Equity and International Equity Index Funds. The Board took into account that the total expense ratios for the Money Market, Small Cap Equity and International Equity Funds ranked in the third quartile and the International Equity Index Fund ranked in the fourth quartile. The Board inquired into factors that contributed to a Fund’s ranking in the third or fourth quartile for expenses among its peer group.

The Board also examined fee and expense information for the Date Target Funds and the Asset Allocation Funds, as compared to other funds in the Funds’ asset-stratified peer groups for the Investor Class of the Date Target Funds and the Institutional and Investor Classes of the Asset Allocation Funds, provided by the report of an outside consulting firm, as of June 30, 2015. The Board determined that the management fees, net of any fee waiver or expense reimbursement, for each Date Target Fund were higher than the median management fees for other mutual funds in each Fund’s asset-stratified peer group but that the total expense ratios for each Date Target Fund were slightly lower than the median total expense ratio (second quartile) for such other funds. For the Asset Allocation Funds, the Board determined that the management fees, net of any fee waiver or expense reimbursement, for each Asset Allocation Fund for the Institutional and Investor Classes were slightly higher than the median management fees for other mutual funds in each Fund’s asset-stratified peer group and that the total expense ratios for each Asset Allocation Fund for the Institutional and Investor Class were slightly lower than the median total expense ratio for such other funds.

The Board examined the performance information for the Investor Class of the Select Funds compared to the relevant benchmark and to Morningstar peer rankings, specifically for the three-, five- and 10-year average annual total returns for the period ended June 30, 2015. Among Morningstar peers, the Board noted that the average annual total returns for the three-, five- and 10-year periods ended June 30, 2015 for the Money Market and Extended-Duration Bond Funds ranked in the first quartile.

For the period ended June 30, 2015, the Board noted that for the three-year average annual total return, the Global Bond and Value Equity Funds ranked in the first quartile; the Low-Duration Bond, Medium-Duration Bond, Inflation Protected Bond, Defensive Market Strategies and Small Cap Equity Funds ranked in the second quartile; the Growth Equity and International Equity Funds ranked in the third quartile; and the Real Estate Securities Fund ranked in the fourth quartile.

For the five-year average annual total return for the period ended June 30, 2015, the Board noted that the Global Bond, Real Estate Securities, Value Equity and Small Cap Equity Funds ranked in the first quartile; the Medium-Duration Bond, Inflation Protected Bond, Growth Equity and International Equity Funds ranked in the second quartile; the Low-Duration Bond Fund ranked in the third quartile; and no Funds ranked in the fourth quartile.

For the 10-year average annual total return for the period ended June 30, 2015, the Board noted that the Medium-Duration Bond and Real Estate Securities Funds ranked in the first quartile; the Low-Duration Bond Fund ranked in the second quartile; and the Value Equity, Growth Equity, Small Cap Equity and International Equity Funds ranked in the third quartile; and no Funds ranked in the fourth quartile.

The Board then examined the performance information included in the Report of the Investment Adviser for the Investor Class of each Asset Allocation Fund compared to the relevant benchmark and to Lipper peer rankings for the three-, five- and 10-year periods ended June 30, 2015, and for the Date Target Funds for the three- and five-year periods ended June 30, 2015.

Among Lipper peers, the Board noted that the Conservative Allocation Fund ranked in the fourth quartile for the three-, five- and 10-year periods ended June 30, 2015; the Balanced Allocation Fund ranked in the third quartile for the five- and 10-year periods and the fourth quartile for the three-year period ended June 30, 2015; the Growth Allocation Fund ranked in the third quartile for the five- and 10-year periods and the fourth quartile for the three-year period ended June 30, 2015; and the Aggressive Allocation Fund ranked in the first quartile for the five-year period, the second quartile for the three-year period and the third quartile for the 10-year period ended June 30, 2015.

The Board also noted that the MyDestination 2015, 2025 and 2035 Funds each ranked in the third quartile among Lipper peers for the three-year period ended June 30, 2015, and the MyDestination 2005, 2045 and 2055 Funds ranked in the fourth quartile among Lipper peers for the same period. Among Lipper peers for the five-year period ended June 30, 2015, the Board noted that the MyDestination 2015, 2025, 2035 and 2045 Funds each ranked in the second quartile among Lipper peers for the five-year period ended June 30, 2015, and the MyDestination 2005 Fund ranked in the fourth quartile among Lipper peers for the same period. The Board recognized the inception date of the MyDestination 2055 Fund in 2012.

The Board and GSCM discussed the reasons why a Fund’s performance would be in the third or fourth quartile among its peer group, including with respect to the performances of the International Equity Fund, Extended-Duration Bond Fund, Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund. The Board considered the reasons explained by GSCM, including the composition of the Fund’s peer group and market conditions.

Table of Contents

The Board considered the costs to GSCM of serving as the Adviser to the Funds, including the costs associated with the personnel, systems and equipment necessary to manage the Funds in accordance with the existing advisory agreement. The Board considered the revenues that GSCM received for serving as the Adviser to the Funds and the fact that any profit realized by the Adviser is forwarded to GuideStone Financial Resources, which for many years operated at a deficit with respect to the Trust. The Board also considered the profitability information for the Adviser, first, without taking into account sub-advisory fees, and second, taking into account sub-advisory fees. The Board then considered whether any direct or indirect collateral benefits inured to either the Adviser or the Trust as a result of their affiliation with one another. In light of these considerations, the Board concluded that any profits realized in connection with the Adviser’s services appeared reasonable.

The Board also considered the extent to which the advisory fee to be paid to the Adviser reflected economies of scale. The Board noted that as of May 1, 2015, only certain Funds are subject to an expense cap. The Board considered the amount of any fees waived by the Adviser for each Fund and the total amount of fees waived for the Trust as a whole during the past year. The Board also noted that the total expense ratios net of any fee waiver and expense reimbursement were below the median total expense ratio for other similar funds at the same asset levels for the Investor Class, except for the Money Market, Flexible Income and Global Natural Resources Equity Funds.

The Board also considered that they recently had performed a review of the current Advisory Agreement at the February 26-27, 2015 Board meeting, at which time the Board reviewed detailed presentations by the Adviser regarding the comprehensive review process it used to recommend changes to the advisory fee schedule, including increases in the advisory fees for the Global Bond Fund, Real Estate Securities Fund and Small Cap Equity Fund. At that meeting, the Board considered the Adviser’s rationale for the changes to the advisory fees. In addition, the Board considered the information provided by the Adviser to demonstrate the advisory fee previously set for each of the Global Bond Fund, Real Estate Securities Fund and Small Cap Equity Fund was too low given the complexity of managing that Fund.

In connection with considering the revised advisory fee schedule at the February meeting, the Board considered that the Adviser proposed to eliminate fee waivers for the majority of the Funds and discussed the Adviser’s rationale for such elimination. The Board had noted that the Adviser had expressed its intent to continue to offer fee waivers in connection with new funds. The Board had further noted that the proposed advisory fee schedule changes would result in an overall decrease in fee revenue to the Adviser. Based on their review, the Board had concluded that each Fund’s advisory fee was reasonable. The Board then concluded that based on the presentations made in February and the information provided at the current meeting, that each Fund’s advisory fee was reasonable.

Based on all of the information presented to the Board and its consideration of relevant factors, the Board concluded that the fee paid to the Adviser by each Fund was fair and reasonable in light of the services to be performed, and in the exercise of its business judgment, determined to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement for each Fund. The Board also determined that approval of the continuation of each Advisory Agreement is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.

BOARD APPROVAL OF CONTINUATION OF SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS FOR THE SELECT FUNDS AND THE FUNDS PARTICIPATING IN THE CASH OVERLAY PROGRAM

In considering the existing Sub-Advisory Agreements with each of the applicable sub-advisers, the Board took into account the materials provided prior to and during the meeting, the presentations made during the meeting and the extensive discussions during the meeting, including the discussions the Independent Trustees had during their executive sessions with their Independent Counsel. The Board also took into account the Investment Management Committee’s (the “Committee”) review of information related to the Trust’s sub-advisers, questions submitted by the Committee to GSCM and Trust management regarding various sub-advisers, GSCM and Trust management’s responses to those questions and recommendations made by the Committee. More specifically, the Board examined the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the sub-advisers. The Board evaluated each sub-adviser’s experience in serving as a sub-adviser to a Fund. The Board noted that each sub-adviser currently provides investment advice to various clients, including, in some cases, other pooled investment vehicles. The Board noted the experience of key personnel at each sub-adviser in providing investment management services and the systems used by such persons and the ability of each sub-adviser to attract and retain capable personnel. The Board noted the reputation, compliance history, compliance program and financial condition of each sub-adviser. The Board also noted the terms

of the existing sub-advisory agreements and the responsibilities that each sub-adviser has towards a Fund, including the responsibility of the day-to-day management of the investment portfolio of each Fund, compliance with each Fund’s policies and objectives and the implementation of Board directives as they relate to the Funds. The Board also took into account the overall structure of each Fund and the particular role each sub-adviser plays in that structure and in achieving each Fund’s overall investment objective. The Board also noted that market conditions presented challenges for certain active management strategies during recent periods. The Board concluded that each Fund is likely to benefit from the nature, extent and quality of these services as a result of each sub-adviser’s experience, personnel, operations and resources. In their deliberations, the Board members did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors deliberated upon, among others.

The Board examined performance information for each segment of a Fund managed by a sub-adviser. The Board noted that, for many of the sub-advisers, the performance record of the segment of the Fund managed by the sub-adviser compared favorably to the relevant benchmark, the composite performance for the sub-adviser’s clients (on a gross fee basis) and/or the peer universe of similarly managed funds. In cases where the sub-adviser’s performance lagged behind the relevant benchmark, the Board also considered more recent investment performance, performance measured against other relevant benchmarks or how the sub-adviser’s strategy deviated from the composition of the benchmark, any recent reductions in the sub-advisory fee and the sub-adviser’s role within the Fund.

To the extent that a segment of a Fund underperformed the relevant benchmark, the Board and GSCM discussed the reasons for the underperformance and the outlook for the Fund’s future performance. The Board noted that, in certain cases, market trends that have developed since the recent economic downturn have contributed to the underperformance of some of the sub-advisers. The Board also considered whether a sub-adviser’s underperformance was within the expected tracking error for the sub-adviser’s investment strategy. The Board concluded that, although past performance is no guarantee of future performance, the performance of each Fund was satisfactory and the Funds were likely to benefit from each sub-adviser continuing to serve as sub-adviser to the Trust.

The Board examined the fee schedule for each sub-adviser, noting how the fee levels charged to the Trust compared with available information about fees charged by the sub-advisers to their other similarly situated clients, which in many cases include separately managed accounts, as well as how the sub-adviser fee levels for each Select Fund compared to the median sub-advisory fee for the peer universe of similarly managed funds.

The Board also took into account the profitability and the financial capability of each sub-adviser in light of information presented at the meeting. In light of these considerations, the Board concluded that the profits realized by each sub-adviser who completed a profitability questionnaire appeared reasonable. For the limited number of sub-advisers that did not provide profitability information, the Board relied upon other relevant information, particularly the independent negotiation of the fee schedules, the level of the fees, the sub-adviser’s performance history and feedback received from the sub-adviser regarding the firm’s inability to estimate profitability. The Board noted that, based on the Adviser’s representations, the financial statements of the sub-advisers did not appear to raise any significant concerns regarding the financial capability of those sub-advisers. The Board also considered the Adviser’s representations in the materials prepared for this meeting, and the discussions earlier in the meeting, that no sub-adviser experienced any material adverse change in its financial condition since the date of its most recent audited financial statements, and took into account the Adviser’s representation that it would continue to monitor the financial condition of each sub-adviser.

The Board considered the extent to which sub-adviser fees to be paid to each sub-adviser reflected economies of scale. The Board noted that each sub-adviser’s fee schedule either reflected economies of scale by reducing the fee on assets in excess of certain stated breakpoints or the fee level negotiated was below or on par with the standard fee level for the sub-adviser.

In evaluating the benefits that are expected to accrue to each sub-adviser through its relationship as sub-adviser to a Select Fund, the Board noted that certain sub-advisers allocate portfolio brokerage to affiliated broker-dealers that receive commissions from the execution of Fund trades. The Board also noted that certain sub-advisers expect to benefit from “soft dollar” arrangements by which brokers will provide research and other services to the sub-adviser in exchange for commissions on trades of the portfolio securities of the Select Fund. The Board considered whether any direct or indirect collateral benefits inured to the Trust as a result of its affiliation with each sub-adviser.

Based on all of the information presented to the Board and its consideration of relevant factors, the Board, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, determined to approve the continuation of each Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board also determined that approval of the continuation of each Sub-Advisory Agreement is in the best interest of each Select Fund and each Fund participating in the Cash Overlay Program and their respective shareholders.

BOARD REVIEW OF NEW SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS FOR THE EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUND AND GLOBAL NATURAL RESOURCES EQUITY FUND

As required by the 1940 Act, the Board of the Trust, including all of the Independent Trustees, considered the approval of the following new sub-advisory agreements among: (i) AQR Capital Management, LLC (“AQR”), the Adviser and the Trust on behalf of the Emerging Markets Equity Fund; and (ii) Northern Trust Investments, Inc. (“NTI”), the Adviser and the Trust on behalf of the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund (each a “New Sub-Advisory Agreement” and collectively, the “New Sub-Advisory Agreements”).

The Board approved each New Sub-Advisory Agreement at an in-person meeting of the Board held on November 5-6, 2015.

The Board’s decision to approve each New Sub-Advisory Agreement on behalf of the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund reflects the exercise of its business judgment to enter into such agreements. In approving each New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board considered information provided by the Adviser and each sub-adviser with the assistance and advice of Independent Counsel to the Independent Trustees and counsel to the Trust.

The Board’s consideration of various factors and its conclusions with respect to such factors formed the basis for the Board’s determination to approve each New Sub-Advisory Agreement. The factors considered by the Board included, but were not limited to: (i) the personnel resources of each sub-adviser; (ii) the experience and expertise of each sub-adviser; (iii) the financial capabilities and financial resources of each sub-adviser; (iv) the compliance procedures and history of each sub-adviser; (v) the performance of each proposed investment strategy in comparison to any relevant benchmarks, similarly managed funds and each sub-adviser’s other clients; (vi) the amount of the contractual sub-advisory fee in comparison to fees for similarly managed funds and available information for each sub-adviser’s other clients and the effect of any fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangement; (vii) the total expected expenses of the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund in comparison to those for similarly managed funds and the use of any anticipated expense caps; (viii) the expected profitability of each sub-adviser with respect to the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and its overall business; (ix) the extent of any economies of scale and whether the fee structure reflects such economies of scale; (x) the existence of any collateral benefits realized by each sub-adviser, such as affiliate brokerage arrangements or the use of soft dollars; and (xi) the existence of any collateral benefits realized by the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund. The Board also evaluated whether the approval of each New Sub-Advisory Agreement was in the best interest of each of the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and their respective shareholders or future shareholders. No one factor was determinative in the Board’s consideration of the agreements, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the factors considered.

The Board undertook a review of the terms of each New Sub-Advisory Agreement, and the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by each sub-adviser under the New Sub-Advisory Agreements. The Adviser provided the Board with information in the form of reports about each sub-adviser prior to the meeting, which addressed the factors listed above. The Adviser also provided additional information about each sub-adviser in a presentation made during the meeting, discussed the comprehensive screening process used to recommend each sub-adviser and responded to questions from the Board.

The Independent Trustees met separately in executive session with Independent Counsel to discuss and consider the information presented in connection with the approval of each New Sub-Advisory Agreement, as well as the Board’s responsibilities and duties in approving the agreements.

BOARD APPROVAL OF NEW SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS FOR THE EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUND AND GLOBAL NATURAL RESOURCES EQUITY FUND

In considering the approval of each New Sub-Advisory Agreement for the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund, the Board took into account the materials provided prior to and during the November 5-6, 2015 meeting, the presentations made during the meeting and the extensive discussions during the meeting, including the discussion the

Independent Trustees had during their executive session with Independent Counsel. The Board also took into account the Committee’s review of information related to each New Sub-Advisory Agreement, questions submitted by the Committee to Trust management regarding each sub-adviser, Trust management’s responses to those questions and recommendations made by the Committee. The Board considered its responsibilities with respect to reviewing and approving the terms of each New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the investment management teams at each sub-adviser, the reasonableness of the sub-advisory fees, and whether the appointment of each sub-adviser would be reasonable and fair to each of the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and their respective shareholders and future shareholders. The Board reviewed the factors that they should consider in evaluating whether to approve each New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the materials provided to support each factor.

The Board considered the reputation, compliance history, compliance program and financial condition of AQR and NTI. The Board noted the experience of key personnel at each sub-adviser who would be providing investment management services to each applicable Fund, the systems and resources used by such persons to implement and manage each applicable strategy and the ability of each sub-adviser to attract and retain capable personnel. The Board also noted the terms of each New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the responsibilities that each sub-adviser would have to the applicable Fund, including the responsibility of day-to-day management and compliance with each Fund’s investment objectives and policies. The Board concluded that the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Global Natural Resources Equity Fund were likely to benefit from the nature, extent and quality of the services with respect to each applicable sub-adviser’s experience, personnel, operations and resources.

The Board noted the terms of each New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the responsibilities of each sub-adviser, including oversight of general Fund compliance and compliance with the Trust’s social restrictions. The Board considered the Adviser’s assessment of each sub-adviser’s financial condition. The Board noted that the Adviser, after reviewing certain financial information provided by each sub-adviser, felt comfortable that each sub-adviser was financially sound.

Emerging Markets Equity Fund

The Board, including the Independent Trustees advised by Independent Counsel, considered a number of factors, including the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by AQR, the past performance records of similar accounts managed by relevant personnel of AQR, fees charged to comparable clients and information regarding AQR’s ownership structure, investment management experience, investment philosophies and processes, clients, key personnel, ability to attract and retain capable personnel, assets under management, compliance policies and procedures, compliance history, reputation, and brokerage and soft dollar practices. The Board also reviewed presentations by the Adviser regarding the comprehensive review process it used to recommend AQR. The Board received and considered information about the potential of AQR to contribute economies of scale as the Fund grows in size. The Board considered that the Adviser had been able to negotiate fees that were favorable compared to AQR’s stated fee schedule. In addition, the Trustees noted that the sub-adviser’s fee schedule included a breakpoint that would reduce the sub-advisory fee charged if a specified asset level is reached in the future.

The Board noted that there was no historical profitability information with regard to AQR’s assignment within the Fund. The Board did note, however, that AQR did provide an estimate of profitability, which appeared reasonable to the Board. The Trustees considered the Adviser’s assessment of AQR’s financial condition. The Trustees noted that the Adviser, after reviewing certain financial information provided by AQR, believed that AQR was financially sound.

The Board considered the fees to be paid to AQR under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, as well as the overall fee structure under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided. The Board acknowledged that the Adviser was able to negotiate a favorable fee schedule below that of AQR’s standard fee schedule. The Board noted that the Fund’s aggregate management fees would not increase as a result of the appointment of AQR. The Board also noted that the Fund, and not the Adviser, would pay fees to AQR directly and, as a result, the appointment of AQR would not be expected to affect the Adviser’s profitability. The Board noted that the aggregate management fee for the Fund would continue to be competitive with fees paid by other mutual funds to other advisers. The Board also considered how AQR calculates costs and how, and the extent to which, such costs would be allocated to the Fund.

The Board considered potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits anticipated to be received by AQR and its affiliates as a result of its arrangements with the Fund. The Board concluded that any potential benefits to be derived by AQR included potential access to additional research resources, larger assets under management and reputational benefits, which were consistent with those generally derived by sub-advisers to mutual funds.

The Board considered the Emerging Markets Integrated Alpha Strategy (“Integrated Alpha Strategy”) proposed to be implemented by AQR with respect to approximately 19% of the Fund’s assets that the Adviser intends to allocate to AQR. The Board noted the Adviser’s determination that the strategy would complement the other strategies currently utilized in the Fund and, as such, would maintain the Fund’s dedicated, emerging markets exposure and potential return source diversification. While noting that past performance does not indicate future results, the Trustees considered the back-tested performance results of the Integrated Alpha Strategy being proposed considering its limited performance history (inception date of June 1, 2015). The Trustees noted that the back-tested Integrated Alpha Strategy’s performance would have outperformed its benchmark (MSCI EM Index), gross of fees, over the one-, three-, five-, seven- and 10-year and since inception periods ended May 31, 2015. The Trustees further noted that a transition manager would not be utilized due to the reallocation of assets among the two AQR strategies within the Fund but did consider the anticipated costs of the transition.

The Board noted that the proposed Integrated Alpha Strategy is very similar to AQR’s existing Emerging Markets Equity Strategy. The Board noted that the Integrated Alpha Strategy would provide diversification benefits when combined with the strategy used by the Fund’s other sub-advisers, Genesis Asset Partners LLP and Genesis Investment Management LLP (together, “Genesis”). In addition, the Trustees believe that the inclusion of the Integrated Alpha Strategy in the Emerging Markets Equity Fund will allow for additional assets to be invested in the Emerging Markets Equity Fund, particularly given that the Genesis strategy is currently hard closed and AQR’s Emerging Markets Equity Strategy will be hard closed by year-end, but yet maintain the Emerging Markets Equity Fund’s current risk/return profile and investment characteristics.

Based on all the information presented to the Board and its consideration of relevant factors, the Board, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, concluded that the Emerging Markets Equity Fund was likely to benefit from the nature, extent and quality of AQR’s services under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and determined to approve the New Sub-Advisory Agreement with AQR. The Board also determined that the approval of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement with AQR was in the best interests of the Emerging Markets Equity Fund and its present and future shareholders.

Global Natural Resources Equity Fund

In making its determination to approve the New Sub-Advisory Agreement with NTI, the Board, including the Independent Trustees advised by Independent Counsel, considered a number of factors, including the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by NTI, the past performance records of similar accounts managed by relevant personnel of NTI, fees charged to comparable clients and information regarding NTI’s ownership structure, investment management experience, investment philosophies and processes, assets under management, clients, key personnel, ability to attract and retain capable personnel, compliance policies and procedures, compliance history, reputation, and brokerage and soft dollar practices. The Board also reviewed presentations by the Adviser regarding the comprehensive review process it used to recommend NTI. The Board received and considered information about the potential of NTI to contribute economies of scale as the Fund grows in size. The Board considered that the Adviser had been able to negotiate fees that were favorable compared to NTI’s standard fee schedule. In addition, the Trustees noted that NTI’s fee schedule included a breakpoint that would reduce the sub-advisory fee charged if a specified asset level is reached in the future.

The Board noted that there was no historical profitability information with regard to NTI’s assignment within the Fund. The Board did note, however, that NTI did provide an estimate of profitability, which appeared reasonable to the Board. The Trustees considered the Adviser’s assessment of NTI’s financial condition. The Trustees noted that the Adviser, after reviewing certain financial information provided by NTI, believed that NTI was financially sound.

The Board considered the fees to be paid to NTI under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, as well as the overall fee structure under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided. The Board acknowledged that the Adviser was able to negotiate a favorable fee schedule below that of NTI’s standard fee schedule. The Board noted that the Fund’s aggregate management fees would not increase as a result of the appointment of NTI. The Board also noted that the Fund, and not the Adviser, would pay fees to NTI directly and, as a result, the appointment of NTI would not be expected to affect the Adviser’s profitability. The Board noted that the aggregate management fee for the Fund would continue to be competitive with fees paid by other mutual funds to other advisers. The Board also considered how NTI calculates costs and how, and the extent to which, such costs would be allocated to the Fund.

The Board considered potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits anticipated to be received by NTI and its affiliates as a result of its arrangements with the Fund. The Board concluded that any potential benefits to be derived by NTI included potential access to additional research resources, larger assets under management and reputational benefits, which were consistent with those generally derived by sub-advisers to mutual funds.

The Board considered the passively managed index strategy proposed to be implemented by NTI with respect to approximately 25% of the Fund’s assets that the Adviser intends to allocate to NTI. The Board noted the Adviser’s determination that the strategy would complement the other strategy currently utilized in the Fund and, as such, would enhance the Fund’s potential to provide long-term capital appreciation. While noting that past performance does not indicate future results, the Trustees considered the performance results of the strategy’s benchmark index (MSCI World Commodity Producers Index) being proposed, noting NTI does not currently manage a passive strategy to this benchmark. The Board did note, however, that NTI is an existing sub-adviser managing passive investment strategies for three series of the Trust, and the Adviser believes that NTI can manage this strategy effectively and efficiently for the Fund. The Trustees noted that the Adviser will utilize a transition manager to transition to NTI its allocation of the Fund’s assets and considered the anticipated costs of the transition.

The Board noted that the Adviser had determined to change the Fund’s benchmark index and, after further discussing the reasons for the change to the Fund’s benchmark index, concluded the Adviser’s decision to restructure the Fund by removing the strategic exposure to gold miners equities, and consequently terminating Van Eck Associates Corporation as a sub-adviser to the Fund, was appropriate to enhance (i) the structure of the Fund as a stand-alone fund, (ii) the Fund’s risk/return profile relative to the new benchmark index, (iii) and the Fund’s stock selection risk to factor risk composition. The Board noted that the inclusion of NTI in the Fund’s sub-adviser composite would provide diversifying exposure to SailingStone Capital Partners LLC, the other sub-adviser to the Fund.

Based on all the information presented to the Board and its consideration of relevant factors, the Board, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, concluded that the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund was likely to benefit from the nature, extent and quality of NTI’s services under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and determined to approve the New Sub-Advisory Agreement with NTI. The Board also determined that the approval of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement with NTI was in the best interests of the Global Natural Resources Equity Fund and its present and future shareholders.

GuideStone

Non-Audit Services Provided to the Company, Advisor, and Others

The Audit Committee shall pre-approve all permissible non-audit services (e.g., tax services) to be provided to the Company by the Auditors, including the fees therefor;

provided, that if the Committee chooses to delegate the authority to grant pre-approvals to one or more Committee members, each acting on behalf of the Committee, then the Committee shall adopt policies and procedures detailed as to the particular service and designed to safeguard the continued independence of the auditors, consistent with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “S-O Act”) and related SEC regulations, which shall then be used in making such pre-approvals; and,

further provided, that each delegated pre-approval shall be reported to the Committee during its next regularly scheduled meeting.

The pre-approval requirement for a permitted non-audit service may be waived if:

 

  (1)

the aggregate amount of all such non-audit services provided constitutes not more than 5% of the total revenues paid by the Company to the Auditors in the fiscal year in which the non-audit services are provided;

 

  (2)

such services were not recognized by the Company at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and

 

  (3)

such services are promptly brought to the attention of, and approved by, the Audit Committee or by a member of the Audit Committee to whom the Committee has delegated the authority to grant such approvals, if any, prior to the Auditors’ completion of the Company’s audit.


Table of Contents

Additionally, if the Auditors’ engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Company, to the extent required by Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, the Audit Committee shall pre-approve their engagements for non-audit services with:

 

  (1)

the Advisor (excluding any subadviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is sub-contracted or overseen by the Advisor), and

The percentage of hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees was less than fifty percent.

 

       (g)   

The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the registrant’s accountant for services rendered to the registrant, and rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of the last two fiscal years of the registrant was $0 and $0 for 2014 and 2015, respectively.

 

       (h)   

The registrant’s audit committee of the board of directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
