Notes to Statements of Investments (unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION

Franklin California Tax-Free Trust (Trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company, consisting of three funds (Funds).

2. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT VALUATION

The Funds' investments in financial instruments are carried at fair value daily. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Funds' calculate the net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), generally at 4p.m. Eastern time (NYSE close) on each day the NYSE is open for trading. Under procedures approved by the Trust's Board of Trustees (the Board), the Funds' administrator, investment manager and other affiliates have formed the Valuation and Liquidity Oversight Committee (VLOC). The VLOC provides administration and oversight of the Funds' valuation policies and procedures, which are approved annually by the Board. Among other things, these procedures allow the Funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers, and other market sources to determine fair value.

Debt securities generally trade in the over-the-counter market rather than on a securities exchange. The Funds' pricing services use multiple valuation techniques to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity exists, the pricing services may utilize a market-based approach through which quotes from market makers are used to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity may not exist or is limited, the pricing services also utilize proprietary valuation models which may consider market characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, credit spreads, estimated default rates, anticipated market interest rate volatility, coupon rates, anticipated timing of principal repayments, underlying collateral, and other unique security features in order to estimate the relevant cash flows, which are then discounted to calculate the fair value.

Securities in Franklin California Tax-Exempt Money Fund are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Amortized cost is an income-based approach which involves valuing an instrument at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium.

The Funds have procedures to determine the fair value of financial instruments for which market prices are not reliable or readily available. Under these procedures, the VLOC convenes on a regular basis to review such financial instruments and considers a number of factors, including significant unobservable valuation inputs, when arriving at fair value. The VLOC primarily employs a market-based approach which may use related or comparable assets or liabilities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, and other relevant information for the investment to determine the fair value of the investment. An income-based valuation approach may also be used in which the anticipated future cash flows of the investment are discounted to calculate fair value. Discounts may also be applied due to the nature or duration of any restrictions on the disposition of the investments. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such investments, the fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market existed. The VLOC employs various methods for calibrating these valuation


 

approaches including a regular review of key inputs and assumptions, transactional back-testing or disposition analysis, and reviews of any related market activity.

3. INCOME TAXES

At March 31, 2014, the cost of investments and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for income tax purposes were as follows:

    Franklin California     Franklin California  
    Insured Tax-Free     Intermediate-Term Tax-  
    Income Fund     Free Income Fund  
 
Cost of investments $ 1,630,267,327   $ 1,133,016,421  
 
Unrealized appreciation $ 128,849,118   $ 63,518,068  
Unrealized depreciation   (2,301,390 )   (9,633,421 )
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) $ 126,547,728   $ 53,884,647  

 

At March 31, 2014, the cost of investments for book and income tax purposes was the same for the Franklin California Tax-Exempt Money Fund.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Funds follow a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and the Funds’ own market assumptions (unobservable inputs). These inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ financial instruments and are summarized in the following fair value hierarchy:

  • Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical financial instruments
  • Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar financial instruments, interest rates, prepayment speed, credit risk, etc.)
  • Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of financial instruments)

The input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with financial instruments at that level. Money market securities may be valued using amortized cost, in accordance with the 1940 Act. Generally, amortized cost reflects the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2 inputs.

For movements between the levels within the fair value hierarchy, the Funds have adopted a policy of recognizing the transfers as of the date of the underlying event which caused the movement.

At March 31, 2014, all of the Funds’ investments in financial instruments carried at fair value were valued using Level 2 inputs.


 

5. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Funds have evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of the Statements of Investments and determined that no events have occurred that require disclosure.

For additional information on the Funds' significant accounting policies, please refer to the Funds' most recent semiannual or annual shareholder report.


 

 

 

 

Item 2. Controls and Procedures.

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  The Registrant maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Registrant’s filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Company Act of 1940 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Such information is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  The Registrant’s management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, recognizes that any set of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

 

Within 90 days prior to the filing date of this Quarterly Schedule of Portfolio Holdings on Form N-Q, the Registrant had carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Registrant’s management, including the Registrant’s principal executive officer and the Registrant’s principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on such evaluation, the Registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Controls.  There have been no changes in the Registrant’s internal controls or in other factors that could materially affect the internal controls over financial reporting subsequent to the date of their evaluation in connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Schedule of Portfolio Holdings on Form N-Q.
