Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

The broad U.S. municipal bond market performed relatively well for the 12 months ended November 30, 2015—a less turbulent period for munis than some recent years. The muni markets’ return of about 3% was more than 2 percentage points higher than that of the broad taxable bond market.

Vanguard Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund also surpassed the broader market and its comparative standards. For the 12 months, the fund’s Investor Shares returned 3.70% and its Admiral Shares returned 3.79%. These results exceeded the 3.35% return of the benchmark, the Barclays Pennsylvania Municipal Bond Index, and the 2.96% average return of competing Pennsylvania tax-exempt funds.

In contrast to the previous fiscal year, interest income, not price appreciation, was the main driver of the fund’s returns. (For both Investor and Admiral Shares, the capital return was 0.03%; return from income was 3.67% for Investor Shares and 3.76% for Admiral Shares.) Its 30-day SEC yield for Investor Shares rose slightly to 2.40% as of November 30, from 2.29% a year earlier.

Vanguard Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund returned 0.01%, constrained by the Federal Reserve’s near-zero policy for short-term interest rates. The average

return of its peers was also 0.01%. The fund’s 7-day SEC yield finished the fiscal year at 0.01%, the same level as a year earlier.

Please note: The funds are permitted to invest in securities whose income is subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT). As of the end of the period, the Long-Term Fund owned no securities that would generate income distributions subject to the AMT, but the Money Market Fund did.

Before moving on to the markets, I want to update you on Vanguard’s response to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s new money market rules that fund sponsors must adopt by October 2016. In June, Vanguard announced plans that preserve our money market funds as a cash management option with a stable price for both individual and institutional funds.

Most notably, we plan to designate the Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund as a retail fund, along with all of our national and state-specific tax-exempt money market fund offerings. This means that individual investors will continue to have access to these funds at a stable net asset value of $1 per share.

Bonds managed slight gains as investors waited for the Fed
Bond returns broadly were muted over the period as markets weighed the Federal Reserve’s latest statements about the timing of a potential rise in short-term interest rates. (In mid-December, after the close of the reporting period, the Fed raised its target for short-term rates to range between 0.25% and 0.50%.) Investors seemed to alternately seek and shun safe-haven assets, depending on stock market volatility.

The broad U.S. taxable bond market returned 0.97%, with income providing the gain. The yield of the 10-year Treasury note ended November at 2.22%, down from 2.25% a year earlier.

International bond markets (as measured by the Barclays Global Aggregate Index ex USD) returned –8.29%, hindered by the dollar’s strength against many foreign currencies. Without this currency effect, results were positive.

The Fed’s 0%–0.25% target for short-term rates continued to limit returns for money market funds and savings accounts.

The broad U.S. stock market produced modest returns
U.S. stocks traveled a rocky route on their way to returns that approached 3% for the 12 months. Most of the turmoil came in late summer; markets tumbled in August and September amid fears about the ripple effects of China’s slowing economic growth.

The fund expense ratios shown are from the prospectus dated March 26, 2015, and represent estimated costs for the current fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2015, the funds’ expense ratios were: for the Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, 0.05%; and for the Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund, 0.20% for Investor Shares and 0.12% for Admiral Shares. The expense ratio for the Pennsylvania Money Market Fund reflects a temporary reduction in operating expenses (described in Note B of the Notes to Financial Statements). Before the reduction, the expense ratio was 0.16%. Peer-group expense ratios are derived from data provided by Lipper, a Thomson Reuters Company, and capture information through year-end 2014.

Peer groups: For the Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, Other States Tax-Exempt Money Market Funds; for the Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund, Pennsylvania Municipal Debt Funds. In most, if not all, cases, the expense ratios for funds in the peer groups are based on net operating expenses after reimbursement and/or fee waivers by fund sponsors. In contrast, the Vanguard money market funds’ expense ratios in the table above do not reflect expense reductions.

Stocks recovered markedly in October and stood firm in November. Central banks in Europe and Asia discussed or enacted more stimulus measures to combat weak growth and low inflation.

International stocks returned about –6% as the dollar’s strength hurt results. Returns for emerging markets, which were especially affected by the concerns about China, trailed those of the developed markets of the Pacific region and Europe.

Demand for munis was strong despite some headline concerns
U.S. Treasury bonds establish the level of risk-free interest rates, and taxable and tax-exempt bonds trade in relation to comparable-maturity Treasury rates. (As I noted in my last letter, because of municipal bonds’ tax-exempt status, their interest rates typically also reflect tax rates; this relationship is dynamic.) In some recent years, the relationship between the bellwether 10-year Treasury note and its tax-exempt counterpart has undergone notable shifts. But this fiscal year, that relationship was nearly unchanged from start to finish, despite some minor moves in between.

Supply and demand also play a key role in municipal bond performance. Investors digested a significant year-over-year increase in bond issuance in the first half of the fiscal year and a much smaller increase in the second half. Demand across the nation was strong not only from traditional buyers in higher income tax brackets but also from nontraditional buyers such as

banks and insurance companies. In Pennsylvania, supply also increased from a year earlier, while demand was in line with the rest of the country.

Broadly, investors looked beyond the well-publicized fiscal challenges faced by Illinois and Puerto Rico to the generally stable-to-improving creditworthiness of the vast majority of municipal borrowers. Municipals benefited from some of the safe-haven demand that helped Treasury bonds amid concerns about Greece and the slower growth in China.

The Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund was helped by the favorable overall environment and investors’ continued search for the higher yields offered by longer-maturity and lower-quality bonds. The fund was also well-positioned by its advisor, Vanguard Fixed Income Group. A lighter allocation to higher-rated securities (particularly those ranked AA in credit quality by major rating agencies) and overall issuer selection boosted relative returns.

For more information about the advisor’s approach and the funds’ positioning during the fiscal year, please see the Advisor’s Report that follows this letter.

Discipline, low costs, and research helped the fund over the decade
Although the most recent fiscal year was relatively calm for the broad municipal bond market, much of the past decade was marked by turmoil. This included a small number of widely publicized bankruptcies such as that of Detroit (though that was resolved rather swiftly). And tax revenues shrank during the Great Recession and its aftermath, further straining already challenged borrowers.

Through it all, the Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Funds have benefited from the expertise and experience of our team of independent credit analysts, who work closely with the entire portfolio management team. (For more on the credit team, see the insight box on page 7.)

The work of our credit analysts, combined with our low costs, has helped the Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund outperform its peer group and closely track its benchmark index. For the decade ended November 30, the average annual return for its Investor Shares was 4.55%, a step behind the index return of 4.92% but ahead of the 3.93% average return of peer funds.

Although we are attentive to the benchmark, our most important gauge of the fund’s relative success is how it performs against its peers. Competitors generally have higher costs than Vanguard, but benchmark indexes have none, which gives them an inevitable performance advantage. The Money Market Fund also outperformed, returning 1.00% compared with the 0.81% average return of its peers.

A final note about a key member of our municipal bond fund management team: Pamela Wisehaupt Tynan, who joined Vanguard in 1982 and has been a longtime muni bond fund manager with us, has announced her retirement effective at the end of February 2016. We are grateful for her dedication in successfully managing a number of our funds for more than two decades. Pam also developed a deep and talented team of portfolio managers and traders to oversee Vanguard’s tax-exempt money market funds. I know that our

short-term muni bond team is in good hands, as we’ve appointed Justin Schwartz to succeed Pam. Justin joined Vanguard in 2004 and has worked closely with Pam since 2005.

A dose of discipline is crucial when markets become volatile
The developments over the past few months remind us that nobody can control the direction of the markets or reliably predict where they’ll go in the short term. However, investors can control how they react to volatility.

  
  
Credit research: A key part of Vanguard’s investment process
 
When our funds buy a municipal bond, fund shareholders are lending money to a school
district, turnpike authority, hospital, university, or other tax-exempt borrower. We expect
those loans to be repaid. That’s why credit research is a pillar of our investment process
and why our credit analysts work closely with our portfolio managers and traders.
 
Our credit team conducts an objective, thorough, and independent analysis of each issuer’s
overall creditworthiness. This quantitative and qualitative approach may include testing the
sensitivity of projected cash flows, analyzing demographic and economic drivers, negotiating
legal covenants, meeting with the issuer’s officials, and, of course, digging into financial
statements.
 
Credit analysts look to identify opportunities or problems among any bonds we own or
are considering. Their informed opinions help us understand and manage risk, sidestep
troubled issuers, and uncover value.
 
Our senior municipal credit analysts average more than 23 years of industry experience
and more than 10 years at Vanguard. This experience, along with stability in our team
structure, helps ensure consistency in credit exposure and risk management across
funds with similar objectives.

During periods of market adversity, it’s more important than ever to keep sight of one of Vanguard’s key principles: Maintain perspective and long-term discipline. Whether you’re investing for yourself or on behalf of clients, your success is affected greatly by how you respond—or don’t respond—to turbulence. (You can read Vanguard’s Principles for Investing Success at vanguard.com/research.)

As I’ve written in the past, the best course for long-term investors is generally to ignore daily market moves and not make decisions based on emotion. This is also a good time to evaluate your portfolio and make sure your asset allocation is aligned with your time horizon, goals, and risk tolerance.

The markets are unpredictable and often confounding. Keeping your long-term plans clearly in focus can help you weather these periodic storms.

As always, thank you for investing with Vanguard.

Sincerely,


F. William McNabb III
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Advisor’s Report

For the 12 months ended November 30, 2015, Vanguard Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund returned 3.70% for Investor Shares and 3.79% for Admiral Shares. The fund outpaced its benchmark, the Barclays Pennsylvania Municipal Bond Index, which returned 3.35%, and the 2.96% average return of its peers. Vanguard Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund returned 0.01%, equaling the average return of its peers.

The investment environment
The fiscal year began a month after the Federal Reserve wrapped up its multiyear stimulative bond-buying program. Attention then turned to when interest rates would rise, a question that remained a key focus of stock and bond investors worldwide throughout the period. (The Fed raised its target for short-term rates to between 0.25% and 0.5% in mid-December, after the close of the reporting period.)

The Fed had made clear that the timing of its first rate hike in almost a decade would depend on the overall health of the economy and on the picture for employment and inflation in particular. Those data points generally moved in the right direction during the fiscal year.

Although gross domestic product growth almost ground to a halt early in 2015, in part because of a harsh winter and a West Coast port strike, it recovered in the second and third quarters. Job growth was generally strong: The national unemployment rate fell from 5.8% to 5.0%—a level not seen since April 2008. And inflation, although under pressure from falling energy and import prices, was expected to move toward the Fed’s 2% target in the medium term.

The unemployment rate in Pennsylvania declined from 5.2% to 5.1% over the period. Pennsylvania’s economy grew more slowly than that of the United States as a whole, according to a gauge of current economic conditions published monthly by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. The bank’s index for Pennsylvania climbed by about 2% from November 2014 through

October 2015; the increase in the index at the national level was about 3%. (Each state’s index incorporates data on nonfarm payroll employment, the jobless rate, average hours worked in manufacturing, and inflation-adjusted wage and salary payments.)

The latter part of the fiscal year was marked by a budget stalemate in Harrisburg. As this report was being prepared, the legislature had made progress toward a settlement but not yet reached a final agreement.

Since the summer of 2014, Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s, and Fitch have all downgraded Pennsylvania’s credit ratings, citing a structural budget imbalance and increasing pension liabilities as factors. However, they noted that Pennsylvania continues to benefit from a moderate overall debt structure, a diversifying economic base, and conservative state government financial planning and management. Because the state’s credit rating depends largely on the final budget, we characterize the current situation as “developing.”

Management of the funds
At Vanguard, we strive to add value through a diversified mix of strategies—primarily duration and yield-curve positioning, credit-quality decisions, and security selection. We don’t try to hit home runs, preferring to consistently hit singles and doubles. Risk management is key to our investment processes, along with collaboration with Vanguard’s experienced team of credit analysts. The team performs an objective, thorough, and independent analysis of the overall creditworthiness of every issuer whose bonds we own or consider buying.

We made no significant shifts during the period in the Long-Term Fund’s portfolio strategy or positioning. In a relatively range-bound environment for bond yields and credit spreads, we believed that picking up additional yield would potentially boost outperformance. To do this, we started and ended with a tilt toward lower-quality and longer-dated bonds compared with the credit and maturity profile of the benchmark.

This strategy, which served us well, was part of our defensive posture while awaiting the Fed’s first move. Longer-dated bond yields are influenced more by inflation expectations than by short-term borrowing costs.

We added value by holding premium callable bonds. Because these bonds may be redeemed before maturity, exposing investors to reinvestment risk, they offer attractive yields and favorable total return potential in many interest rate scenarios. We favored revenue bonds over general obligation bonds for their more identifiable cash-flow streams to service debt.

10


 

The Money Market Fund’s 0.01% return for the period reflected the Fed’s decision to keep short-term interest rates anchored between 0% and 0.25%.

A look ahead
Although the U.S. economy’s growth rate slowed in the third calendar quarter, we believe it is on track to average about 2.5% or a bit higher in 2016. Inflation should continue to be tempered by oil prices, which seem to have settled into a range far below their summer 2014 peak.

The monetary tightening cycle that the Fed initiated just after the close of the fiscal year is likely to be very slow and gradual. It may well end at a level below the historical average because of the moderate pace of U.S. economic growth, fragile growth abroad, and the modest outlook for inflation. These expectations are already largely built into bond market prices.

Apart from Fed policy, which should help lift money market yields, interest rates are likely to remain range-bound. We expect their floor to be set, at least in part, by the strength of the U.S. economy. The cap will be determined by global conditions, including the relative strength of the dollar, slower growth overseas, and central bank policies—which have driven down bond yields abroad.

As interest rates fell in recent years, we captured many opportunities for price appreciation. We don’t see much scope for credit spreads to tighten significantly, nor do we expect them to widen back out. Given the macroeconomic environment and current muni and taxable bond valuation levels, we will keep seeking to add value through duration and maturity positioning, credit-quality profiles, and security selection.

Because market volatility may increase as interest rates move higher, we will maintain above-average levels of liquidity. This will give us the “dry powder” needed to take advantage of any dislocations in pricing.

As always, our experienced team of portfolio managers, traders, and credit analysts will continue to seek out opportunities to add to the funds’ performance, whatever the markets may bring.

A First Tier security is one that is eligible for money market funds and has been rated in the highest short-term rating category for debt obligations by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. Credit-quality ratings are obtained from Moody's, Fitch, and S&P. For securities rated by all three agencies, where two of them are in agreement and assign the highest rating category, the highest rating applies. If a security is only rated by two agencies, and their ratings are in different categories, the lower of the ratings applies. An unrated security is First Tier if it represents quality comparable to that of a rated security, as determined in accordance with SEC Rule 2a-7. For more information about these ratings, see the Glossary entry for Credit Quality.

Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in debt instruments of municipal issuers whose ability to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments in the state.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (November 30, 2012–2015), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

3. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month.

4. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.06% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate equal to the higher of the federal funds rate or LIBOR reference rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at November 30, 2015, or at any time during the period then ended.

5. Other: Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

B. In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Net Assets.

26


 

Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At November 30, 2015, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $180,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.07% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

Vanguard and the board of trustees have agreed to temporarily limit certain net operating expenses in excess of the fund’s daily yield in order to maintain a zero or positive yield for the fund. Vanguard and the board of trustees may terminate the temporary expense limitation at any time. For the year ended November 30, 2015, Vanguard’s expenses were reduced by $2,301,000 (an effective annual rate of 0.11% of the fund’s average net assets); the fund is not obligated to repay this amount to Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At November 30, 2015, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was determined based on Level 2 inputs.

D. Management has determined that no material events or transactions occurred subsequent to November 30, 2015, that would require recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in debt instruments of municipal issuers whose ability to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments in the state. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Bonds, and temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses futures contracts to invest in fixed income asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, to add value when these instruments are attractively priced, or to adjust sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearing-house, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate settlement values of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

During the year ended November 30, 2015, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on the average of aggregate settlement values at each quarter-end during the period.

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (November 30, 2012–2015), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

60


 

Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund

5. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.06% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate equal to the higher of the federal funds rate or LIBOR reference rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at November 30, 2015, or at any time during the period then ended.

6. Other: Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Net Assets.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At November 30, 2015, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $283,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.11% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

61


 

Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of November 30, 2015, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Tax-Exempt Municipal Bonds 3,241,755
Futures Contracts—Assets1 7
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (18)
Total (11) 3,241,755
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.

 

D. At November 30, 2015, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts Long (Short) (Depreciation)
5-Year U.S. Treasury Note March 2016 145 17,209 3

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

E. Capital gain distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when gains or losses are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes. These differences will reverse at some time in the future.

The fund used a tax accounting practice to treat a portion of the price of capital shares redeemed during the year as distributions from realized capital gains. Accordingly, the fund has reclassified $1,297,000 from accumulated net realized gains to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at November 30, 2015, the fund had short-term and long-term capital gains of $208,000 and $10,529,000, respectively, available for distribution. Short-term gain distributions are treated as ordinary income dividends for tax purposes.

At November 30, 2015, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $3,063,662,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $178,093,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $179,455,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $1,362,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

F. During the year ended November 30, 2015, the fund purchased $658,960,000 of investment securities and sold $482,703,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Vanguard Pennsylvania Tax-Free Funds and the Shareholders of Vanguard Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund and Vanguard Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vanguard Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund and Vanguard Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund (constituting Vanguard Pennsylvania Tax-Free Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at November 30, 2015, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at November 30, 2015 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers and the application of alternative auditing procedures where securities purchased had not been received, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.

A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“

Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

Six Months Ended November 30, 2015      
  Beginning Ending Expenses
  Account Value Account Value Paid During
  5/31/2015 11/30/2015 Period
Based on Actual Fund Return      
Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund $1,000.00 $1,000.05 $0.25
Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund      
Investor Shares $1,000.00 $1,026.25 $1.07

Investor Shares $1,000.00 $1,024.02 $1.07
Admiral Shares 1,000.00 1,024.42 0.66

 

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The funds’ annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, 0.05%; and for the Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund, 0.21% for Investor Shares and 0.13% for Admiral Shares. (The six-month expense ratio for the Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund reflects a temporary reduction in operating expenses, described in Note B of the Notes to Financial Statements. Before the reduction, the fund’s annualized six-month expense ratio was 0.16%.) The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (183/365).

Glossary

7-Day SEC Yield and 30-Day SEC Yield. A money market fund’s 7-day SEC yield is calculated by annualizing its income distributions for the previous seven days, as required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. For other funds, 30-day SEC yield is derived using a formula specified by the commission. Under the formula, data related to the fund’s security holdings in the previous 30 days are used to calculate the fund’s hypothetical net income for that period, which is then annualized and divided by the fund’s estimated average net assets over the calculation period. For the purposes of this calculation, a security’s income is based on its current market yield to maturity (for bonds), its actual income (for asset-backed securities), or its projected dividend yield (for stocks). Because the SEC yield represents hypothetical annualized income, it will differ—at times significantly—from the fund’s actual experience. As a result, the fund’s income distributions may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield.

Average Coupon. The average interest rate paid on the fixed income securities held by a fund. It is expressed as a percentage of face value.

Average Duration. An estimate of how much the value of the bonds held by a fund will fluctuate in response to a change in interest rates. To see how the value could change, multiply the average duration by the change in rates. If interest rates rise by 1 percentage point, the value of the bonds in a fund with an average duration of five years would decline by about 5%. If rates decrease by a percentage point, the value would rise by 5%.

Average Stated Maturity. The average length of time until fixed income securities held by a fund reach maturity and are repaid using the maturity date of the security. The figure reflects the proportion of fund assets represented by each security; it also reflects any futures contracts held. In general, the longer the average stated maturity, the more a fund’s share price will fluctuate in response to changes in market interest rates.

Average Weighted Maturity. The average length of time until fixed income securities held by a fund reach maturity and are repaid. The figure reflects the proportion of fund assets represented by each security.

Beta. A measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of a given market index. The index is assigned a beta of 1.00. Compared with a given index, a fund with a beta of 1.20 typically would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the index rose or fell by 10%. For this report, beta is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index. Note that a fund’s beta should be reviewed in conjunction with its R-squared (see definition). The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there is between the fund and the index, and the less reliable beta is as an indicator of volatility.

Credit Quality. For Vanguard money market funds, the Distribution by Credit Quality table includes tier ratings for consistency with SEC Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which governs money market funds. A First Tier security is one that is eligible for money market funds and has been rated in the highest short-term rating category for debt obligations by the requisite nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. Credit-quality ratings are obtained from Moody’s, Fitch, and S&P. For securities rated by all three agencies, where two of them are in agreement and assign the highest rating category, the highest rating applies. If a security is only rated by two agencies, and their ratings are in different categories, the lower of the ratings applies. An unrated security is First Tier if it represents quality comparable to that of a rated security, as determined in accordance with SEC Rule 2a-7. A Second Tier security is one that is eligible for money market funds and is not a First Tier security. For Vanguard tax-exempt bond funds, credit-quality ratings are measured on a scale that generally ranges from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit-quality ratings are obtained from Moody’s and S&P, and the higher rating for each issue is used. ”Not Rated” is used to classify securities for which a rating is not available. Not rated securities include a fund’s investment in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund or Vanguard Municipal Cash Management Fund, each of which invests in high-quality money market instruments and may serve as a cash management vehicle for the Vanguard funds, trusts, and accounts.

Expense Ratio. A fund’s total annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. The expense ratio includes management and administrative expenses, but does not include the transaction costs of buying and selling portfolio securities.

Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.

R-Squared. A measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by the returns from the market in general, as measured by a given index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s returns bore no relationship to the index’s returns, its R-squared would be 0. For this report, R-squared is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index.

Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.

Yield to Maturity. The rate of return an investor would receive if the fixed income securities held by a fund were held to their maturity dates.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.

A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 194 Vanguard funds.

The following table provides information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. More information about the trustees is in the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained, without charge, by contacting Vanguard at 800-662-7447, or online at vanguard.com.
