GREAT-WEST AMERICAN CENTURY GROWTH FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West American Century Growth Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or

 

 

  March 28, 2013


possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) shares can be bought and sold on the secondary market at market prices. Although, it is expected that the market price of an ETF share typically will approximate its NAV, there may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. Thus, the Fund may pay more or less than NAV when it buys ETF shares on the secondary market, and the Fund may receive more or less than NAV when it sells those shares.

The Fund’s underlying ETF may invest in stocks, which may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the underlying ETF to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2011 and 2012.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its

 

 

  March 28, 2013


fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $435,129,169. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $72,678,131 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $7,125,214 resulting in net appreciation of $65,552,917.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $6,862,672 and received collateral of $7,036,270 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST ARIEL MID CAP VALUE FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Ariel Mid Cap Value Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short-term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST ARIEL SMALL CAP VALUE FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Ariel Small Cap Value Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

 

Class

  

Inputs

Equity Investments:

  

Domestic Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close or bid price.

Foreign Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close price, bids, evaluated bids, open and close price of local exchange, exchange rates, fair values based on significant market movement and various index data.

Short Term Investments

  

Maturity date and credit quality.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

(a) Further breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Dividends

Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $2,503,357 and received collateral of $2,571,993 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Bond Index Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek investment results that track the total return of the debt securities that comprise the Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

Fixed income investments are valued using evaluated bid prices from approved pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be model priced or priced on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

Short Term Investments

    

Maturity date and credit quality.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, 100% of the Fund’s investments are valued using Level 2 inputs. A breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments. The Fund recognizes transfers between the levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The Fund may hold bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities which are restricted as to resale. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. These securities are deemed illiquid unless it is otherwise determined that such securities are liquid pursuant to the Board-approved guidelines established in Great-West Funds’ Policy and Procedures regarding Liquidity.

The Fund may own certain investment securities that have been deemed illiquid because no quoted market exists. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. It is possible that the estimated value may differ significantly from the amount that might ultimately be realized in the near term.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid quarterly. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $939,897,421. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $34,165,494 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $2,373,696 resulting in net appreciation of $31,791,798.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $15,922,382 and received collateral of $32,268,913 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Federated Bond Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide total return, consistent with two components: (1) changes in the market value of its fund holdings (both realized and unrealized appreciation); and (2) income received from its fund holdings. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

Fixed income investments are valued using evaluated bid prices from approved pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be model priced or priced on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The Fund may hold bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Restricted and Illiquid Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities which are restricted as to resale. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. These securities are deemed illiquid unless it is otherwise determined that such securities are liquid pursuant to the Board-approved guidelines established in Great-West Funds’ Policy and Procedures regarding Liquidity.

The Fund may own certain investment securities that have been deemed illiquid because no quoted market exists. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. It is possible that the estimated value may differ significantly from the amount that might ultimately be realized in the near term.

Financial Futures Contracts

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Receipts or payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. When the Fund enters into a closing transaction, it will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract at the time it was opened or purchased and its value at the time it was closed.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid quarterly. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $547,224,197. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $16,433,231 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $1,572,567 resulting in net appreciation of $14,860,664.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund uses futures contracts to capitalize on expected changes in the shape of the yield curve and to control overall interest rate exposure. The use of futures contracts involves risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities. The Fund held an average of 598 futures contracts for the reporting period.

4. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $1,731,438 and received collateral of $1,768,508 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Goldman Sachs Mid Cap Value Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short-term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

 

Class

  

Inputs

Equity Investments:
Domestic Common Stock

   Exchange traded close or bid price.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


    Foreign Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close price, bids, evaluated bids, open and close price of local exchange, exchange rates, fair values based on significant market movement and various index data.

Short Term Investments

   Maturity date and credit quality.

Derivative Investments:
Futures Contracts

   Exchange traded close price.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Financial Futures Contracts

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Receipts or payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. When the Fund enters into a closing transaction, it will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract at the time it was opened or purchased and its value at the time it was closed.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $328,441,811. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $41,279,422 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $2,993,124 resulting in net appreciation of $38,286,298.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As the Fund may at times hold cash, in an effort to minimize the tracking error relative to the Fund’s benchmark index, the Fund may at times use index futures contracts in order to maintain index returns for that cash component. The Fund seeks to use index futures contracts which are most correlated to the benchmark index and exhibit sufficient liquidity. The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities that comprise the index, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations. The Fund held an average of 16 futures contracts for the reporting period.

4. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $27,604,908 and received collateral of $28,359,658 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST INTERNATIONAL INDEX FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West International Index Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek investment results that track the total return of the common stocks that comprise the MSCI EAFE Index. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short-term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Managers of GWCM, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies. For this Fund, Level 2 securities include certain securities trading outside the U.S. whose values were adjusted as a result of significant market movements following the close of local trading.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts and Futures Contracts are reported at the security’s unrealized appreciation/(depreciation), which represents the change in the contract’s value from trade date.

 

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Financial Futures Contracts

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Receipts or payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. When the Fund enters into a closing transaction, it will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract at the time it was opened or purchased and its value at the time it was closed.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

A forward foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated rate. Upon closing of such contract there is a gain or loss arising from the difference between the U.S. dollar cost of the original contract and the value of the foreign currency in U.S. dollars. Risks arise from the possible inability of

counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movement in currency and securities values and interest rates.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2011 and 2012.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $391,274,895. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $48,397,322 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $25,680,320 resulting in net appreciation of $22,717,002.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund uses futures contracts in order for the Fund to hold cash but maintain index returns with the objective of minimizing tracking error versus the benchmark index. Index futures contracts which are most correlated to the benchmark index and exhibit sufficient liquidity are utilized. The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities that comprise the index, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations. The Fund held an average of 165 futures contracts for the reporting period.

The Fund captures potential returns from changes in international exchange rates or reduces the risk of undesired currency exposure by entering into forward foreign currency contracts. The Fund uses forward foreign currency contracts when it is determined that it is more cost or tax efficient to use derivative instruments rather than investing directly in the underlying bond or currency market. The Fund held an average notional value of $63,661,546 on forward foreign currency contracts for the reporting period.

4. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $21,468,606 and received collateral of $22,626,391 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST INVESCO ADR FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Invesco ADR Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek high total return through capital appreciation and current income, while reducing risk through diversification. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short-term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

 

Class

  

Inputs

Equity Investments:

  

Foreign Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close price, bids, evaluated bids, open and close price of local exchange, exchange rates, fair values based on significant market movement and various index data.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Depositary Receipts

  

Exchange traded close price, bids, evaluated bids, open and close price of underlying security. Includes currency exchange rates against U.S. Dollar and Depositary Receipt conversion factor.

Short Term Investments

  

Maturity date and credit quality.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies. For this Fund, Level 2 securities include certain securities trading outside the U.S. whose values were adjusted as a result of significant market movements following the close of local trading.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

(a) Further breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $15,060,334. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $1,983,983 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $523,373 resulting in net appreciation of $1,460,610.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $1,223,171 and received collateral of $1,266,832 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST INVESCO SMALL CAP VALUE FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Invesco Small Cap Value Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital growth. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Financial Futures Contracts

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Receipts or payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. When the Fund enters into a closing transaction, it will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract at the time it was opened or purchased and its value at the time it was closed.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $65,980,619. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $11,884,033 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $2,274,420 resulting in net appreciation of $9,609,613.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund may at times hold cash. In an effort to minimize the tracking error relative to the Fund’s benchmark index, the Fund may at times use index futures contracts in order to maintain index-like returns for that cash component. Index futures contracts which are most correlated to the benchmark index and exhibit sufficient liquidity are utilized. Index futures contracts are not constituents of the Fund’s benchmark index itself, but rather, closely represent the exposure of the index in its entirety. The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities that comprise the index, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations. The Fund held an average of 10 futures contracts for the reporting period.

4. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $6,699,867 and received collateral of $6,892,831 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST JANUS LARGE CAP GROWTH FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Janus Large Cap Growth Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of

 

 

  March 28, 2013


non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $259,326,196. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $79,948,744 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $13,296,745 resulting in net appreciation of $66,651,999.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $2,086,127 and received collateral of $2,209,000 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST LOOMIS SAYLES BOND FUND

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Loomis Sayles Bond Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek high total investment return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

Fixed income investments are valued using evaluated bid prices from approved pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be model priced or priced on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

Maturity date and credit quality.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best

information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

(a)

   Further breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments.   

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The Fund may hold bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Restricted and Illiquid Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities which are restricted as to resale. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. These securities are deemed illiquid unless it is otherwise determined that such securities are liquid pursuant to the Board-approved guidelines established in Great-West Funds’ Policy and Procedures regarding Liquidity.

The Fund may own certain investment securities that have been deemed illiquid because no quoted market exists. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. It is possible that the estimated value may differ significantly from the amount that might ultimately be realized in the near term.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $395,654,657. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $63,224,085 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $6,210,679 resulting in net appreciation of $57,013,406.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $16,987,085 and received collateral of $17,397,144 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST LOOMIS SAYLES SMALL CAP VALUE FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Loomis Sayles Small Cap Value Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital growth. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

(a) Further breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) shares can be bought and sold on the secondary market at market prices. Although, it is expected that the market price of an ETF share typically will approximate its NAV, there may be times when the market

 

 

  March 28, 2013


price and the NAV vary significantly. Thus, the Fund may pay more or less than NAV when it buys ETF shares on the secondary market, and the Fund may receive more or less than NAV when it sells those shares.

The Fund’s underlying ETF may invest in stocks, which may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the underlying ETF to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $186,343,197. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $74,505,851 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $3,417,188 resulting in net appreciation of $71,088,663.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $11,695,928 and received collateral of $11,994,010 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST MFS INTERNATIONAL GROWTH FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West MFS International Growth Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short-term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

 

Class

  

Inputs

Equity Investments:

  

Domestic Common Stock

   Exchange traded close or bid price.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Foreign Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close price, bids, evaluated bids, open and close price of local exchange, exchange rates, fair values based on significant market movement and various index data.

Short Term Investments    Maturity date and credit quality.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies. For this Fund, Level 2 securities include certain securities trading outside the U.S. whose values were adjusted as a result of significant market movements following the close of local trading.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table.

(a) Further breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments.

The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. As of March 28, 2013, the following transfers were recognized between valuation levels.

 

Investments

        Fair Value of Transfer   

Reason for Transfer

Consumer, Non-cyclical

      $6,293,661    Transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 due to utilizing a foreign fair value price. As of the prior reporting period end, the security utilized a market closing price.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Restricted Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities which are restricted as to resale. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. These securities are deemed illiquid unless it is otherwise determined that such securities are liquid pursuant to the Board-approved guidelines established in the Great-West Funds’ Policy and Procedures regarding Liquidity.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $250,007,908. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $53,037,060 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $11,482,208 resulting in net appreciation of $41,554,852.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $14,057,933 and received collateral of $14,802,803 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST MFS INTERNATIONAL VALUE FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West MFS International Value Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short-term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Class

  

Inputs

Equity Investments:

  

Foreign Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close price, bids, evaluated bids, open and close price of local exchange, exchange rates, fair values based on significant market movement and various index data.

Preferred Stock

  

Benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, evaluated bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs also may include exchange prices.

Derivative Investments:

  

Purchased Options

  

Cash rates, futures and swap rates, FX spot and forward curve, FX volatilities, interest rates, net present value of cash flows.

Short Term Investments

  

Maturity date and credit quality.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies. For this Fund, Level 2 securities include certain securities trading outside the U.S. whose values were adjusted as a result of significant market movements following the close of local trading.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table.

  March 28, 2013


The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. As of March 28, 2013, the following transfers were recognized between valuation levels.

 

Investments

   Fair Value of Transfer   

Reason for Transfer

Consumer, Non-cyclical

   $20,193,663    Transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 due to utilizing a foreign fair value price. As of the prior reporting period end, the security utilized a market closing price.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Options

As part of its investment strategy the Fund purchases options. When the Fund purchases a put or call option, the premium paid is recorded as an investment and its value is marked-to-market daily. When options expire, are exercised or are closed.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $518,679,753. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $93,339,180 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $12,807,696 resulting in net appreciation of $80,531,484.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund purchased call and put options for a premium. Purchased call and put options entitle the holder to buy and sell a specified number of shares or units of a particular security, currency, or index at a specified price at a specified date or within a specified period of time. Purchased call options are used to seek to reduce exposure to an anticipated increase in the dollar cost of securities or currency to be acquired, or to increase the Fund’s exposure to an underlying instrument. Purchased put options are used to seek to reduce exposure to a decline in the value of Fund securities or currency. The risk in purchasing an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. In addition, there is the risk the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market or, for over-the-counter options, because of the counterparty’s inability or unwillingness to perform. The Fund held an average notional value of $1,965,023,837 on options for the reporting period.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


4. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $30,387,238 and received collateral of $31,896,812 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST MONEY MARKET FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Money Market Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek as high a level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Investments held by the Fund are valued at the amortized cost method of valuation permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act and certain conditions therein. Under the amortized cost method, which does not take into account unrealized capital gains or losses, an instrument is initially valued at its cost and thereafter assumes a constant accretion/amortization to maturity of any discount or premium.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, 100% of the Fund’s investments are valued using amortized cost. Amortized cost closely approximates a security’s current fair value, but since the value is not derived from a quoted price in an active market, amortized securities are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs. A breakdown of the Fund’s investment classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments. The Fund recognizes transfers as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Changing interest rates, changes in credit quality of the issuers, changes in credit ratings of the securities and general market conditions may affect the value and liquidity of securities held by the Fund. Changes in credit quality of banks and financial institutions providing credit and liquidity support features with respect to securities held by the Fund could cause the values of these securities to decline.

Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST PUTNAM EQUITY INCOME FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Putnam Equity Income Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek capital growth and current income. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

Fixed income investments are valued using evaluated bid prices from approved pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be model priced or priced on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Class

  

Inputs

Fixed Income Investments:

  

Convertible Bonds

  

Benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, evaluated bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs also may include exchange prices.

Equity Investments:

  

Domestic Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close or bid price.

Foreign Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close price, bids, evaluated bids, open and close price of local exchange, exchange rates, fair values based on significant market movement and various index data.

Convertible Preferred Stock, Preferred Stock

  

Benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, evaluated bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs also may include exchange prices.

Short Term Investments

  

Maturity date and credit quality.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

  March 28, 2013


Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities which are restricted as to resale. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. These securities are deemed illiquid unless it is otherwise determined that such securities are liquid pursuant to the Board-approved guidelines established in Great-West Funds’ Policy and Procedures regarding Liquidity.

The Fund may own certain investment securities that have been deemed illiquid because no quoted market exists. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. It is possible that the estimated value may differ significantly from the amount that might ultimately be realized in the near term.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2011 and 2012.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $340,096,419. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $77,757,253 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $2,021,108 resulting in net appreciation of $75,736,145.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in

 

 

  March 28, 2013


securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $9,787,796 and received collateral of $9,893,571 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Putnam High Yield Bond Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to obtain high current income with capital appreciation as a secondary objective when consistent with the primary objective. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

Fixed income investments are valued using evaluated bid prices from approved pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be model priced or priced on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities.

The Fund may hold bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities which are restricted as to resale. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. These securities are deemed illiquid unless it is otherwise determined that such securities are liquid pursuant to the Board-approved guidelines established in Great-West Funds’ Policy and Procedures regarding Liquidity.

The Fund may own certain investment securities that have been deemed illiquid because no quoted market exists. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. It is possible that the estimated value may differ significantly from the amount that might ultimately be realized in the near term.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

A forward foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated rate. Upon closing of such contract there is a gain or loss arising from the difference between the U.S. dollar cost of the original contract and the value of the foreign currency in U.S. dollars. Risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movement in currency and securities values and interest rates.

Swap Agreements

A credit default swap is an agreement between the Fund and a counterparty that enables the Fund to buy or sell protection against a credit event related to a particular issuer. One party, acting as a protection buyer, makes periodic payments to the other party, a protection seller, in exchange for a promise by the protection seller to make a payment to the protection buyer if a negative credit event (such as a delinquent payment or default) occurs with respect to a

 

 

  March 28, 2013


referenced bond or group of bonds. Credit default swaps may also be structured based on the debt of a basket of issuers, rather than a single issuer, and may be customized with respect to the default event that triggers purchase or other factors. The Fund may enter into credit default swap contracts for investment purposes. As a credit protection seller in a credit default swap contract, the Fund would be required to pay the par, or other agreed-upon value of a referenced debt obligation to the counterparty in the event of a default by a third party, such as a U.S. or non-U.S. corporate issuer, on the debt obligation. In return for its obligation, the Fund would receive from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default has occurred. If no default occurs, the Fund would keep the stream of payments and would have no payment obligations. As the seller, the Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $228,478,364. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $10,798,296 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $4,220,251 resulting in net appreciation of $6,578,045.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund captures potential returns from changes in international exchange rates or reduces the risk of undesired currency exposure by entering into forward foreign currency contracts. The Fund held an average notional value of $3,110,293 on forward foreign currency contracts for the reporting period.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund enters into credit default swap contracts to gain exposure on individual names and/or baskets of securities. The Fund operates as a seller of protection to take a synthetic long position in the underlying bond or bonds which provide credit protection to the buyer on the referenced obligations. Credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if the Fund had invested in the referenced obligation directly. Credit default swaps are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and credit risk. The Fund held an average notional value of $15,000,000 on credit default swaps for the reporting period.

4. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $6,232,974 and received collateral of $6,384,970 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Real Estate Index Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek investment results that track the total return of a benchmark index that measures the performance of publicly traded equity real estate investment trusts (REITs). The Fund is non-diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short-term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Managers of GWCM, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

  March 28, 2013


The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

Real estate securities involve greater risks than other non-diversified investments, including, but not limited to: declining property values, varying economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, or losses from casualty.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

The Fund may make certain investments in REITs which pay dividends to their shareholders based upon funds available from operations. It is common for these dividends to exceed the REITs’ taxable earnings and profits, resulting in the

 

 

  March 28, 2013


excess portion of such dividends being designated as a return of capital. If the Fund distributes such amounts, it may constitute a return of capital to shareholders for income tax purposes.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns remain open for the fiscal year ended 2012.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $88,817,822. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $8,371,057 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $254,714 resulting in net appreciation of $8,116,343.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund uses futures contracts in order for the Fund to equitize cash and dividend receivables with the objective of minimizing tracking error versus the benchmark index. Index futures contracts which are most correlated to the benchmark index and exhibit sufficient liquidity are utilized. The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations. The Fund held an average of 6 futures contracts for the reporting period.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST S&P 500® INDEX FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West S&P 500® Index Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek investment results that track the total return of the common stocks that comprise the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Financial Futures Contracts

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Receipts or payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. When the Fund enters into a closing transaction, it will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract at the time it was opened or purchased and its value at the time it was closed.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

 

2.

UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $1,133,025,981. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $416,124,407 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $90,377,387 resulting in net appreciation of $325,747,020.

 

3.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund uses futures contracts in order for the Fund to hold cash but maintain index returns with the objective of minimizing tracking error versus the benchmark index. Index futures contracts which are most correlated to the benchmark index and exhibit sufficient liquidity are utilized. The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities that comprise the index, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations. The Fund held an average of 518 futures contracts for the reporting period.

 

4.

SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $9,319,342 and received collateral of $9,673,868 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West S&P Mid Cap 400® Index Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek investment results that track the total return of the common stocks that comprise the Standard & Poor’s MidCap 400® Index. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short-term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Financial Futures Contracts

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Receipts or payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. When the Fund enters into a closing transaction, it will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract at the time it was opened or purchased and its value at the time it was closed.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2011 and 2012.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $292,194,866. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $57,600,759 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $9,554,079 resulting in net appreciation of $48,046,680.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund uses futures contracts in order for the Fund to hold cash but maintain index returns with the objective of minimizing tracking error versus the benchmark index. Index futures contracts which are most correlated to the benchmark index and exhibit sufficient liquidity are utilized. The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities that comprise the index, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations. The Fund held an average of 104 futures contracts for the reporting period.

4. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $20,546,702 and received collateral of $21,106,101 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST S&P SMALL CAP 600® INDEX FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West S&P Small Cap 600® Index Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek investment results that track the total return of the common stocks that comprise the Standard & Poor’s SmallCap 600 Stock Index. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Financial Futures Contracts

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Receipts or payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. When the Fund enters into a closing transaction, it will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract at the time it was opened or purchased and its value at the time it was closed.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its

 

 

  March 28, 2013


fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $456,704,703. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $133,283,161 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $41,718,184 resulting in net appreciation of $91,564,977.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund uses futures contracts in order for the Fund to hold cash but maintain index returns with the objective of minimizing tracking error versus the benchmark index. Index futures contracts which are most correlated to the benchmark index and exhibit sufficient liquidity are utilized. The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities that comprise the index, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations. The Fund held an average of 53 futures contracts for the reporting period.

4. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $50,301,094 and received collateral of $51,606,939 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST SHORT DURATION BOND FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Short Duration Bond Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek maximum total return that is consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

Fixed income investments are valued using evaluated bid prices from approved pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be model priced or priced on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

Mortgage-Backed Securities

Benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, evaluated bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs also may include exchange prices.

Short Term Investments

  

Maturity date and credit quality.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, 100% of the Fund’s investments are valued using Level 2 inputs. A breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments. The Fund recognizes transfers between the levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The Fund may hold bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities which are restricted as to resale. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. These securities are deemed illiquid unless it is otherwise determined that such securities are liquid pursuant to the Board-approved guidelines established in Great-West Funds’ Policy and Procedures regarding Liquidity.

The Fund may own certain investment securities that have been deemed illiquid because no quoted market exists. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. It is possible that the estimated value may differ significantly from the amount that might ultimately be realized in the near term.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid quarterly. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $121,679,716. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $2,613,265 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $344,663 resulting in net appreciation of $2,268,602.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $2,982,378 and received collateral of $5,458,750 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Small Cap Growth Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital growth. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

Maturity date and credit quality.

  

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

(a) Further breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $123,484,533. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $21,283,554 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $5,470,842 resulting in net appreciation of $15,812,712.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities

 

 

  March 28, 2013


on loan valued at $25,755,130 and received collateral of $26,449,556 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Financial Futures Contracts

Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Receipts or payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. When the Fund enters into a closing transaction, it will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contract at the time it was opened or purchased and its value at the time it was closed.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $212,939,569. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $121,344,477 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $29,513,183 resulting in net appreciation of $91,831,294.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund uses futures contracts in order for the Fund to hold cash but maintain index returns with the objective of minimizing tracking error versus the benchmark index. Index futures contracts which are most correlated to the benchmark index and exhibit sufficient liquidity are utilized. The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities that comprise the index, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations. The Fund held an average of 67 futures contracts for the reporting period.

4. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $3,345,768 and received collateral of $3,422,563 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST T. ROWE PRICE EQUITY INCOME FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West T. Rowe Price Equity Income Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek substantial dividend income and also long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

Inputs

     

Equity Investments:

     

Domestic Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close or bid price.

  

Foreign Common Stock

  

Exchange traded close price, bids, evaluated bids, open and close price of local exchange, exchange rates, fair values based on significant market movement and various index data.

  

Preferred Stock

  

Benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, evaluated bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs also may include exchange prices.

  
Short Term Investments   

Maturity date and credit quality.

  

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

(a) Further breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $670,207,308. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $194,140,006 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $42,386,320 resulting in net appreciation of $151,753,686.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $23,783,544 and received collateral of $24,589,316 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

GREAT-WEST FUNDS, INC.

GREAT-WEST T. ROWE PRICE MID CAP GROWTH FUND

Notes to Schedule of Investments

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West T. Rowe Price Mid Cap Growth Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short-term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Foreign securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table.

(a) Further breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the securities held by the Fund to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of

non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Illiquid Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities that have been deemed illiquid because no quoted market exists. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. It is possible that the estimated value may differ significantly from the amount that might ultimately be realized in the near term.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in reverse repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold reverse repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $601,362,661. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $185,974,988 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $11,950,307 resulting in net appreciation of $174,024,681.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $43,023,093 and received collateral of $43,869,823 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Templeton Global Bond Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek current income with capital appreciation and growth of income. The Fund is non-diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

Fixed income investments are valued using evaluated bid prices from approved pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be model priced or priced on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers.

Foreign exchange rates are determined by utilizing the New York closing rates.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, 100% of the Fund’s investments are valued using Level 2 inputs. A breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments. The Fund recognizes transfers between the levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities.

The Fund may hold bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Restricted Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities which are restricted as to resale. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance.These securities are deemed illiquid unless it is otherwise determined that such securities are liquid pursuant to the Board-approved guidelines established in Great-West Funds’ Policy and Procedures regarding Liquidity.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities, and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions.

The Fund does not 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. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from 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 by the Fund 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

A forward foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated rate. Upon closing of such contract there is a gain or loss arising from the difference between the U.S. dollar cost of the original contract and the value of the foreign currency in U.S. dollars. Risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movement in currency and securities values and interest rates.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $241,416,968. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $24,299,278 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $2,980,660 resulting in net appreciation of $21,318,618.

3. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Fund seeks to capture potential returns from changes in international exchange rates or seeks to reduce the risk of undesired currency exposure by entering into forward foreign currency contracts. The Fund uses forward foreign currency contracts when the manager believes it may be more cost or tax efficient to use derivative instruments or it provides more liquidity than investing directly in the underlying bond or currency market. The Fund held an average notional value of $219,443,390 on forward foreign currency contracts for the reporting period.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West U.S. Government Mortgage Securities Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek the highest level of return consistent with preservation of capital and substantial credit protection. The Fund is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, to college savings programs, and to asset allocation funds that are a series of Great-West Funds.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

The value of assets in the Fund is determined as of the close of trading on each valuation date.

Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board of Directors, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.

Fixed income investments are valued using evaluated bid prices from approved pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be model priced or priced on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers.

Independent pricing services are approved by the Board of Directors and are utilized for all investment types when available. In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.

The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities. These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

 

Class

 

Inputs

    

Fixed Income Investments:

   

Asset Backed Securities

 

Benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, evaluated bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs may also include new issue data, collateral performance, and monthly payment information.

 

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Domestic Bonds and Notes, U.S.Government Agency Bonds and Notes, U.S.Treasury Bonds and Notes

 

Benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, evaluated bids, offers and reference data including market research publications.

 

Foreign Bonds and Notes

 

Benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, evaluated bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs also may include observations of equity and credit default swap curves related to issuer.

 

Mortgage-Backed Securities

 

Benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, evaluated bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs may also include new issue data, collateral performance, TBA prices, monthly payment information and third party real estate analysis.

 

Short Term Investments

 

Maturity date and credit quality.

 

The Fund classifies its valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data.

As of March 28, 2013, 100% of the Fund’s investments are valued using Level 2 inputs. A breakdown of the Fund’s sector and industry classifications is included in the Schedule of Investments. The Fund recognizes transfers as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, the following.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the Fund. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Fund may hold bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities

The Fund may own certain investment securities which are restricted as to resale. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. These securities are deemed illiquid unless it is otherwise determined that such securities are liquid pursuant to the Board-approved guidelines established in Great-West Funds’ Policy and Procedures regarding Liquidity.

The Fund may own certain investment securities that have been deemed illiquid because no quoted market exists. These securities are valued after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions, and the issuer’s financial performance. It is possible that the estimated value may differ significantly from the amount that might ultimately be realized in the near term.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in reverse repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that the Fund’s investment adviser has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities collateralizing a reverse repurchase agreement. Collateral is at least equal to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A reverse repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

The Fund, along with certain other funds of Great-West Funds, may invest in repurchase agreement transactions and/or hold repurchase agreement positions as a form of security lending collateral, that are jointly collateralized by various U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund, if any, are declared and paid quarterly. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on a specific lot selection.

Interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU No. 2011-11). ASU No. 2011-11 requires an entity to enhance disclosures about financial and derivative instrument offsetting arrangements or similar arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim or annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund adopted ASU No. 2011-11 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 did not have an impact on the Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

2. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At March 28, 2013, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $398,642,233. The Fund had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $13,049,834 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $1,154,996 resulting in net appreciation of $11,894,838.

3. SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Fund receives income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Fund against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. The Fund also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. Cash collateral is invested in securities approved by the Board of Directors. As of March 28, 2013 the Fund had securities on loan valued at $578,590 and received collateral of $9,456,250 for such loan which was invested in reverse repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities. The reverse repurchase agreements can be jointly purchased with other lending agent clients and in the event of a default by the counterparty, all lending agent clients would share ratably in the collateral. Additional information regarding the Fund’s securities on loan is included in the Schedule of Investments.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Conservative Profile I Fund, Great-West Moderately Conservative Profile I Fund, Great-West Moderate Profile I Fund, Great-West Moderately Aggressive Profile I Fund and Great-West Aggressive Profile I Fund (each a Fund, collectively the Funds) are included herein and are represented by separate classes of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of each Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of the Great-West Funds that emphasize fixed income investments for the Great-West Conservative Profile I Fund; to seek capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of Great-West Funds that emphasize fixed income investments, and to a lesser degree, in those that emphasize equity investments for the Great-West Moderately Conservative Profile I Fund; to seek long-term capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of the Great-West Funds with a relatively equal emphasis on equity and fixed income investments for the Great-West Moderate Profile I Fund; to seek long-term capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of the Great-West Funds that emphasize equity investments, and to a lesser degree, in those that emphasize fixed income investments for the Great-West Moderately Aggressive Profile I Fund and to seek long-term capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of the Great-West Funds that emphasize equity investments for the Great-West Aggressive Profile I Fund. Each Fund is non-diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Funds are available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, and to college savings programs.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Funds.

Security Valuation

Investments in shares of the underlying mutual funds are valued at their net asset value as reported by the underlying mutual fund.

Investments in the Great-West Life & Annuity Contract (GWL&A Contract) are valued at the amount of net deposits, determined on a daily basis. The investment in the GWL&A Contract is a guaranteed account invested in the general account of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (GWL&A).

The Funds classify valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of each Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances. A Statement of Cash Flows is included for the Funds considered to have a substantial percentage of investments not classified as a Level 1 or Level 2.

 

 

 March 28, 2013


As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value each Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Funds recognize transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Level 3 securities include investments in the GWL&A Contract, the fair value of which has been determined with the use of an internal model. The internal model incorporates, among other observable inputs, the financial strength and credit risk of GWL&A and its ability to meet ongoing obligations to its policyholders (i.e., a credit risk input). The Funds consider the credit risk input to be a significant unobservable input. As of March 28, 2013, the credit risk input was negligible. If there were a significant decrease in GWL&A’s credit risk, it may result in a lower fair value measurement.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Funds may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Investments in each Fund are subject to risks related to its allocation strategy. The success of each Fund will be impacted by the results of the underlying funds.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the underlying funds. These events may have adverse effects on the Funds such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Funds, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in underlying funds that primarily invest in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the underlying funds to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund’s underlying funds may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Funds to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Each Fund may invest in underlying funds that primarily invest in bonds. Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The underlying funds of the Funds may be invested in bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may also be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Funds are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Funds, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO). Dividend income and realized gain distributions from underlying funds are accrued as of the ex-dividend date.

Interest on the GWL&A Contract is accrued daily.

Federal Income Taxes

Each Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Funds are not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

Each Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Funds’ U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Funds’ Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Transactions with Affiliates

The Funds each may invest in a fixed interest contract issued by GWL&A. The GWL&A Contract has a stable principal value and accrues a fixed rate of interest, which is reflected in the daily valuation. GWL&A calculates the interest rate in the same way it calculates guaranteed interest rates for similar contracts (on a calendar quarter or other periodic basis). As a result of the investments in certain of the Funds and GWL&A being an affiliated entity the Funds are exposed to the risk of unanticipated industry conditions as well as risks specific to a single corporation. If GWL&A were to become insolvent, the GWL&A Contract would be settled commensurate with other policy holder obligations.

On March 5, 2003, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued exemptive relief (the Exemptive Order) to GWL&A, the Adviser and Great-West Funds permitting the affiliated applicants to purchase the GWL&A Contract. Some of the terms and conditions under which the Exemptive Order was issued are set forth below. Any deviation from these terms and conditions would require the affiliated applicants to seek permission from the SEC to implement any such deviation. There were no deviations from the terms and conditions of the Exemptive Order as of the period ended March 28, 2013.

The amounts deposited will accrue interest at a declared rate of interest, adjustable on a calendar quarter or other periodic basis, guaranteed to be no less than 1.5%. The investment in the GWL&A Contract may be terminated by GWL&A or the Funds with no more than 7 days prior written notice. The guaranteed interest rate paid will be at least as favorable as the guaranteed interest rate paid on other similar products issued by GWL&A or other comparable companies.

The Great-West Funds Board of Directors must annually consider whether allocation by the Funds to the GWL&A Contract is in the best interest of the shareholders as compared to allocating such amounts to another available short duration/short term bond fund.

Each of the Funds may also invest in various funds affiliated with the Adviser & GWL&A. The following tables are a summary of the transactions for each underlying investment during the period ended March 28, 2013, in which the issuer was an affiliate of a Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Conservative Profile II Fund, Great-West Moderately Conservative Profile II Fund, Great-West Moderate Profile II Fund, Great-West Moderately Aggressive Profile II Fund and Great-West Aggressive Profile II Funds (each a Fund, collectively the Funds) are included herein and are represented by separate classes of beneficial interest of the Great-West Funds. The investment objective of each Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of the Great-West Funds that emphasize fixed income investments for the Great-West Conservative Profile II Fund; to seek capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of Great-West Funds that emphasize fixed income investments, and to a lesser degree, in those that emphasize equity investments for the Great-West Moderately Conservative Profile II Fund; to seek long-term capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of the Great-West Funds with a relatively equal emphasis on equity and fixed income investments for the Great-West Moderate Profile II Fund; to seek long-term capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of the Great-West Funds that emphasize equity investments, and to a lesser degree, in those that emphasize fixed income investments for the Great-West Moderately Aggressive Profile II Fund and to seek long-term capital appreciation primarily through investments in underlying funds of the Great-West Funds that emphasize equity investments for the Great-West Aggressive Profile II Fund. Each Fund is non-diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Funds are available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, and to college savings programs.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Funds.

Security Valuation

Investments in shares of the underlying mutual funds are valued at their net asset value as reported by the underlying mutual fund.

Investments in the Great-West Life & Annuity Contract (GWL&A Contract) are valued at the amount of net deposits, determined on a daily basis. The investment in the GWL&A Contract is a guaranteed account invested in the general account of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (GWL&A).

The Funds classify valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of each Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Funds recognize transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Level 3 securities include investments in the GWL&A Contract, the fair value of which has been determined with the use of an internal model. The internal model incorporates, among other observable inputs, the financial strength and credit risk of GWL&A and its ability to meet ongoing obligations to its policyholders (i.e., a credit risk input). The Funds consider the credit risk input to be a significant unobservable input. As of March 28, 2013, the credit risk input was negligible. If there were a significant decrease in GWL&A’s credit risk, it may result in a lower fair value measurement.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Funds may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Investments in each Fund are subject to risks related to its allocation strategy. The success of each Fund will be impacted by the results of the underlying funds.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the underlying funds. These events may have adverse effects on the Funds such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Funds, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in underlying funds that primarily invest in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the underlying funds to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund’s underlying funds may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Funds to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Each Fund may invest in underlying funds that primarily invest in bonds. Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The underlying funds of the Funds may be invested in bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may also be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Funds are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Funds, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from investments sold are determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out method (FIFO). Dividend income and realized gain distributions from underlying funds are accrued as of the ex-dividend date.

Interest on the GWL&A Contract is accrued daily.

Federal Income Taxes

Each Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Funds are not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

Each Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Funds U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Funds Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Transactions with Affiliates

The Funds each may invest in a fixed interest contract issued by GWL&A. The GWL&A Contract has a stable principal value and accrues a fixed rate of interest, which is reflected in the daily valuation. GWL&A calculates the interest rate in the same way it calculates guaranteed interest rates for similar contracts (on a calendar quarter or other periodic basis). As a result of the investments in certain of the Funds and GWL&A being an affiliated entity the Funds are exposed to the risk of unanticipated industry conditions as well as risks specific to a single corporation. If GWL&A were to become insolvent, the GWL&A Contract would be settled commensurate with other policy holder obligations.

On March 5, 2003, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued exemptive relief (the Exemptive Order) to GWL&A, the Adviser and Great-West Funds permitting the affiliated applicants to purchase the GWL&A Contract. Some of the terms and conditions under which the Exemptive Order was issued are set forth below. Any deviation from these terms and conditions would require the affiliated applicants to seek permission from the SEC to implement any such deviation. There were no deviations from the terms and conditions of the Exemptive Order as of the period ended March 28, 2013.

The amounts deposited will accrue interest at a declared rate of interest, adjustable on a calendar quarter or other periodic basis, guaranteed to be no less than 1.5%. The investment in the GWL&A Contract may be terminated by GWL&A or the Funds with no more than 7 days prior written notice. The guaranteed interest rate paid will be at least as favorable as the guaranteed interest rate paid on other similar products issued by GWL&A or other comparable companies.

The Great-West Funds Board of Directors must annually consider whether allocation by the Funds to the GWL&A Contract is in the best interest of the shareholders as compared to allocating such amounts to another available short duration/short term bond fund.

Each of the Funds may also invest in various funds affiliated with the Adviser & GWL&A. The following tables are a summary of the transactions for each underlying investment during the period ended March 28, 2013, in which the issuer was an affiliate of a Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West Lifetime 2015 Fund I, the Great-West Lifetime 2015 Fund II, the Great-West Lifetime 2015 Fund III, the Great-West Lifetime 2025 Fund I, the Great-West Lifetime 2025 Fund II, the Great-West Lifetime 2025 Fund III, the Great-West Lifetime 2035 Fund I, the Great-West Lifetime 2035 Fund II, the Great-West Lifetime 2035 Fund III, the Great-West Lifetime 2045 Fund I, the Great-West Lifetime 2045 Fund II, the Great-West Lifetime 2045 Fund III, the Great-West Lifetime 2055 Fund I, the Great-West Lifetime 2055 Fund II, and the Great-West Lifetime 2055 Fund III (each a Fund, collectively the Funds) are included herein and are represented by separate classes of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of each Fund is to seek capital appreciation and income consistent with its current asset allocation. There are three risk profile options for each available year designated in the name of each Fund. The Fund I series are generally expected to pursue a more conservative allocation strategy relative to the Fund II or Fund III series. The Fund II series are generally expected to pursue a more moderate allocation strategy relative to the Fund I or Fund III series. The Fund III series are generally expected to pursue a more aggressive allocation strategy relative to the Fund I or Fund II series. After the transition year, noted in the name of the Fund, the investment objective is to seek income and secondarily, capital growth. Each Fund is non-diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Funds are available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, to plan sponsors of qualified retirement plans, and to college savings programs.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Funds.

Security Valuation

Investments in shares of the underlying mutual funds are valued at their net asset value as reported by the underlying mutual fund.

Investments in the Great-West Life & Annuity Contract (GWL&A Contract) are valued at the amount of net deposits, determined on a daily basis. The investment in the GWL&A Contract is a guaranteed account invested in the general account of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (GWL&A).

The Funds classify valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of each Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments are detailed in the following tables. The Funds recognize transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Level 3 securities include investments in the GWL&A Contract, the fair value of which has been determined with the use of an internal model. The internal model incorporates, among other observable inputs, the financial strength and credit risk of GWL&A and its ability to meet ongoing obligations to its policyholders (i.e., a credit risk input). The Funds consider the credit risk input to be a significant unobservable input. As of March 28, 2013, the credit risk input was negligible. If there were a significant decrease in GWL&A’s credit risk, it may result in a lower fair value measurement.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Funds may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Investments in each Fund are subject to risks related to its allocation strategy. The success of each Fund will be impacted by the results of the underlying funds.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the underlying funds. These events may have adverse effects on the Funds such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Funds, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Investing in underlying funds that primarily invest in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the underlying funds to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund’s underlying funds may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Funds to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

Each Fund may invest in underlying funds that primarily invest in bonds. Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The underlying funds of the Funds may be invested in bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may also be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Funds are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Funds, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from an investment sold are determined on a specific lot selection. Dividend income and realized gain distributions from underlying funds are accrued as of the ex-dividend date.

Interest on the GWL&A Contract is accrued daily.

Federal Income Taxes

Each Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Funds intend to distribute substantially all of their net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Funds are not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

Each Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Funds’ U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012. The statute of limitations on the Funds’ Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Transactions with Affiliates

The Funds each may invest in a fixed interest contract issued by GWL&A. The GWL&A Contract has a stable principal value and accrues a fixed rate of interest, which is reflected in the daily valuation. GWL&A calculates the interest rate in the same way it calculates guaranteed interest rates for similar contracts (on a calendar quarter or other periodic basis). As a result of the investments in certain of the Funds and GWL&A being an affiliated entity, the Funds are exposed to the risk of unanticipated industry conditions as well as risks specific to a single corporation. If GWL&A were to become insolvent, the GWL&A Contract would be settled commensurate with other policy holder obligations.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


On March 5, 2003, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued exemptive relief (the Exemptive Order) to GWL&A, the Adviser and the Funds permitting the affiliated applicants to purchase the GWL&A Contract. Some of the terms and conditions under which the Exemptive Order was issued are set forth below. Any deviation from these terms and conditions would require the affiliated applicants to seek permission from the SEC to implement any such deviation. There were no deviations from the terms and conditions of the Exemptive Order as of the period ended March 28, 2013.

The amounts deposited will accrue interest at a declared rate of interest, adjustable on a calendar quarter or other periodic basis, guaranteed to be no less than 1.5%. The investment in the GWL&A Contract may be terminated by GWL&A or the Funds with no more than 7 days prior written notice. The guaranteed interest rate paid will be at least as favorable as the guaranteed interest rate paid on other similar products issued by GWL&A or other comparable companies.

The Great-West Funds Board of Directors must annually consider whether allocation by the Funds to the GWL&A Contract is in the best interest of the shareholders as compared to allocating such amounts to another available short duration/short term bond fund.

Each of the Funds may also invest in various funds affiliated with the Adviser & GWL&A. The following tables are a summary of the transactions for each underlying investment during the period ended March 28, 2013, in which the issuer was an affiliate of a Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West SecureFoundation® Lifetime 2015 Fund, the Great-West SecureFoundation® Lifetime 2020 Fund, the Great-West SecureFoundation® Lifetime 2025 Fund, the Great-West SecureFoundation® Lifetime 2030 Fund, the Great-West SecureFoundation® Lifetime 2035 Fund, the Great-West SecureFoundation® Lifetime 2040 Fund, the Great-West SecureFoundation® Lifetime 2045 Fund, the Great-West SecureFoundation® Lifetime 2050 Fund, and the Great-West SecureFoundation® Lifetime 2055 Fund (each a Fund, collectively, the Funds) are included herein and are represented by separate classes of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds.

The investment objective of each Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation and income consistent with its current allocation. Over time until the date noted in the name of the Fund (Guarantee Trigger Date), the asset allocation strategy will generally become more conservative, with greater emphasis on investments that provide for income and preservation of capital, and less on those offering potential for growth. Once a Fund reaches its Guarantee Trigger Date, the asset allocation between equity and fixed-income investments is anticipated to become relatively static. Each Fund is non-diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Funds are available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, and to plan sponsors of certain qualified retirement plans.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Funds.

Security Valuation

Investments in shares of the underlying mutual funds are valued at their net asset value as reported by the underlying mutual fund.

Investments in the Great-West Life & Annuity Contract (GWL&A Contract) are valued at the amount of net deposits, determined on a daily basis. The investment in the GWL&A Contract is a guaranteed account invested in the general account of GWL&A.

The Funds classify valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of each Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances.

As of March 28, 2013, the inputs used to value each Fund’s investments are detailed in the following table. The Funds recognize transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Level 3 securities include investments in the GWL&A Contract, the fair value of which has been determined with the use of an internal model. The internal model incorporates, among other observable inputs, the financial strength and credit risk of GWL&A and its ability to meet ongoing obligations to its policyholders (i.e., a credit risk input). The Funds consider the credit risk input to be a significant unobservable input. As of March 28, 2013, the credit risk input was negligible. If there were a significant decrease in GWL&A’s credit risk, it may result in a lower fair value measurement.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Funds may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Investments in each Fund are subject to risks related to its allocation strategy. The success of each Fund will be impacted by the results of the underlying funds.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the underlying funds. These events may have adverse effects on the Funds such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Funds, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in underlying funds that primarily invest in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the underlying funds to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund’s underlying funds may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Funds to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


Each Fund may invest in underlying funds that primarily invest in bonds. Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The underlying funds of the Funds may be invested in bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may also be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Funds are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Funds, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from an investment sold are determined on a specific lot selection. Dividend income and realized gain distributions from underlying funds are accrued as of the ex-dividend date.

Interest on the GWL&A Contract is accrued daily.

Federal Income Taxes

Each Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Funds intend to distribute substantially all of their net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Funds are not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

Each Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Funds U.S. Federal tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012 for the Great-West SecureFoundation® 2015, 2025, 2035, 2045, and 2055 Funds and 2011 through 2012 for the Great-West SecureFoundation® 2020, 2030, 2040, and 2050 Funds. The statute of limitations on each Fund’s Colorado tax returns remain open for an additional year.

Transactions with Affiliates

The Funds each may invest in a fixed interest contract issued by GWL&A. The GWL&A Contract has a stable principal value and accrues a fixed rate of interest, which is reflected in the daily valuation. GWL&A calculates the interest rate in the same way it calculates guaranteed interest rates for similar contracts (on a calendar quarter or other periodic basis). As a result of the investments in certain of the Funds and GWL&A being an affiliated entity, the Funds are exposed to the risk of unanticipated industry conditions as well as risks specific to a single corporation. If GWL&A were to become insolvent, the GWL&A Contract would be settled commensurate with other policy holder obligations.

On March 5, 2003, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued exemptive relief (the Exemptive Order) to GWL&A, the Adviser and the Funds permitting the affiliated applicants to purchase the GWL&A Contract. Some of the terms and conditions under which the Exemptive Order was issued are set forth below. Any deviation from these terms and conditions would require the affiliated applicants to seek permission from the SEC to implement any such deviation. There were no deviations from the terms and conditions of the Exemptive Order as of the period ended March 28, 2013.

The amounts deposited will accrue interest at a declared rate of interest, adjustable on a calendar quarter or other periodic basis, guaranteed to be no less than 1.5%. The investment in the GWL&A Contract may be terminated by GWL&A or the Funds with no more than 7 days prior written notice. The guaranteed interest rate paid will be at least as favorable as the guaranteed interest rate paid on other similar products issued by GWL&A or other comparable companies.

 

 

  March 28, 2013


The Great-West Funds Board of Directors must annually consider whether allocation by the Funds to the GWL&A Contract is in the best interest of the shareholders as compared to allocating such amounts to another available short duration/short term bond fund.

Each of the Funds may also invest in various funds affiliated with the Adviser & GWL&A. The following tables are a summary of the transactions for each underlying investment during the period ended March 28, 2013, in which the issuer was an affiliate of a Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West SecureFoundation® Balanced Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by separate classes of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation and income. The Fund is non-diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund is available as an investment option for insurance company separate accounts for certain variable annuity contracts, to individual retirement account custodians or trustees, and to plan sponsors of certain qualified retirement plans.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Funds.

Security Valuation

Investments in shares of the underlying mutual funds are valued at their net asset value as reported by the underlying mutual fund.

The Fund classifies valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances.

As of March 28, 2013, all investments of the Fund were in mutual funds that are actively traded, therefore 100% of the investments are valued using Level 1 inputs. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Investments in the Fund are subject to risks related to its allocation strategy. The success of the Fund will be impacted by the results of the underlying funds.

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the underlying funds. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the

See Notes to Schedule of Investments.

 

 

March 28, 2013


value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Investing in underlying funds that primarily invest in stocks may involve larger price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the underlying funds to be subject to larger short-term declines in value.

The Fund’s underlying funds may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.

The Fund may invest in underlying funds that primarily invest in bonds. Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that a security could have its credit rating downgraded or that the issuer of the security could fail to make timely payments or default on payments of interest or principal. Additionally, fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk, meaning the decline in the price of debt securities that accompanies a rise in interest rates. Bonds with longer maturities are subject to greater price fluctuations than bonds with shorter maturities. The prices of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are sensitive to the rate of principal prepayments on the underlying assets.

The underlying funds of the Fund may be invested in bonds which are rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield bonds are traded, may also be less liquid than the market for higher grade bonds.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Fund are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from an investment sold are determined on a specific lot selection. Dividend income for the Fund is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund’s policy complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income taxes or excise tax provision is required.

The Fund files U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. Federal and Colorado tax returns remain open for the fiscal years ended 2009 through 2012.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Great-West Funds, Inc. (Great-West Funds) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. Great-West Funds presently consists of sixty-four funds. Interests in the Great-West SecureFoundation® Balanced ETF Fund (the Fund) are included herein and are represented by separate classes of beneficial interest of Great-West Funds. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation and income. The Fund is non-diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund shares are available through certain broker-dealers, custodians or trustees of Individual Retirement Accounts, or other financial intermediaries who have entered into agreements with the Fund’s distributor to make the shares available. The minimum initial investment in the Fund is $10,000.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

Investments in shares of the underlying Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are valued at the closing market price.

Investments in shares of the underlying mutual fund are valued at the net asset value as reported by the underlying mutual fund.

The Fund classifies valuations into three levels based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The fair value for some Level 2 securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources. The inputs used by the pricing services are reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances.

As of March 28, 2013, all investments of the Fund were in ETFs or mutual funds that are actively traded, therefore 100% of the investments were valued using Level 1 inputs. The Fund recognizes transfers between levels as of the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.

Risk Factors

Unforeseen developments in market conditions may result in the decline of prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the underlying ETFs. These events may have adverse effects on the Fund such as a decline in the value and liquidity of many securities held by the Fund, and a decrease in net asset value. Such unforeseen developments may limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

ETF shares can be bought and sold on the secondary market at market prices. Although it is expected that the market price of an ETF share typically will approximate its NAV, there may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. Thus, the Fund may pay more or less than NAV when it buys ETF shares on the secondary market, and the Fund may receive more or less than NAV when it sells those shares.

The Fund’s underlying ETFs may invest in stocks, which may involve large price fluctuation and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. This may cause the underlying ETFs to be subject to large short-term declines in value.

The Fund’s underlying ETFs may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers have unique risks not present in securities of U.S. issuers, such as greater price volatility and less liquidity.
