Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

Vanguard New Jersey Long-Term Tax Exempt Fund returned 11.07% for Investor Shares and 11.15% for Admiral Shares for the 12 months ended November 30, 2012. The fund’s return was behind that of its benchmark, the Barclays New Jersey Municipal Bond Index, which returned 11.65%.

Compared with many of its peers, the fund’s portfolio was more conservatively positioned in terms of maturity and credit quality. While that has proven to be an advantage in more risk-averse times, this year the fund lagged the 12.32% average return of its peer group.

While the fund’s performance was strong in absolute terms, keep in mind that, for reasons I’ll discuss later in this letter, we anticipate a more challenging environment for both municipal and taxable bond investors in coming years.

The New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, meanwhile, returned 0.04% for the period as short-term interest rates hovered just above zero.

As demand for municipal bonds drove prices higher, yields fell. (Bond yields and prices move in opposite directions.) The 30-day SEC yield for Investor Shares of the Long-Term Fund fell to 1.94% as of November 30, 2012, from 2.96% a year earlier. The 7-day SEC yield of the Money Market Fund, which invests in short-term securities, inched down to 0.02% from 0.03% 12 months earlier.

As you know, the Eastern United States was battered by Hurricane Sandy, with New Jersey the hardest hit. We are obviously deeply concerned for the people affected. At the same time, we are confident in the long-term financial resiliency of the region and hope that, with aid from federal and state governments, the area will benefit from the expected economic stimulus produced by the rebuilding effort. Our credit analysis staff is monitoring the situation very closely.

Note: The funds are permitted to invest in securities whose income is subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT). As of November 30, the Long-Term Fund owned no securities that would generate income distributions subject to the AMT, but the Money Market Fund did.

Bonds notched solid results, but challenges lie ahead

The broad U.S. taxable bond market returned more than 5% for the 12 months. Municipal bonds performed robustly, with returns of about 10%.

As bond prices rose, the yield of the 10-year U.S. Treasury note slipped to a record low in July, closing below 1.5%. By the end of the period, the yield had climbed, but it still remained exceptionally low by historical standards.

After years of relatively high bond returns, investors shouldn’t be surprised if future results are much more modest. The low yields mean the opportunity for similarly strong returns has diminished.

As it has since late 2008, the Federal Reserve held its target for short-term interest rates between 0% and 0.25%, which kept a tight lid on returns from money market funds and savings accounts. Shortly after the period closed, the Fed announced that it would not boost interest rates until unemployment fell to 6.5% or lower, provided the long-term inflation outlook remains around 2% or less. Based on current Fed economic projections, short-term interest rates are expected to remain near zero into 2015.

Stocks weathered turbulence to record a healthy advance

Global stock markets seesawed through the 12 months ended November 30, ultimately finishing with double-digit gains. U.S. stocks led the way, returning about

16%, followed by European and emerging markets stocks. Stocks in the developed markets of the Pacific region had the smallest return but still rose about 10%.

The gains masked a significant level of apprehension during the period, with investors concerned about U.S. economic growth and the finances of European governments and banks. Worries about Europe, in particular, flared up in the spring and then quieted in the summer. The president of the European Central Bank declared in July that policymakers would do whatever was needed to preserve the euro common currency.

Although investors’ worries have eased, Europe’s financial troubles aren’t resolved. Vanguard economists believe the most

likely scenario is that the Eurozone will “muddle through” for several years, with occasional spikes in market volatility, as fiscal tightening persists in the face of weak economic growth.

As the period drew to a close soon after the U.S. elections, attention to the United States’s considerable budgetary challenges intensified. The near-term focus on the “fiscal cliff” led to unsettling headlines and nervousness in the markets. But it also sparked serious debate about spending and tax policy options, and such attention could prove a first step to a long-term solution that resolves the nation’s fiscal imbalance and opens the way for growth.

Investors’ search for yield helped boost muni returns

New Jersey has been struggling with many of the same postrecession economic challenges as the rest of the country.

As the chart on page 6 illustrates, total tax collection for the state has rebounded from recession lows, but the pace of growth has softened in recent quarters.

On the cost side of the budget equation, state and local governments have had little appetite to take on new capital projects. They have, however, strengthened their finances by refinancing existing debt at today’s exceptionally low interest rates. The result has been a significant rise in total New Jersey tax-exempt bond issuance for the 12-month period, but much of it represented refinancing activity.

Despite the financial challenges facing New Jersey state and local governments, demand for municipal bonds ran high during the period. Part of the reason was the limited net new supply (described in the Advisor’s Report). Muni returns were also attractive compared with those of U.S. Treasury bonds. Especially in favor with yield-hungry investors were bonds with longer maturities (despite the potential for sharp price declines should interest rates rise) and lower credit ratings (again, despite

the potential for sharp price declines should investors rein in their appetite for riskier investments).

In this context, the New Jersey Long-Term Tax Exempt Fund returned about 11% for the 12-month period because of its holdings in longer-maturity and lower-quality, investment-grade bonds. Many of its peers held even larger stakes of both and performed even better.

Investment insight
An unclear tax collection picture keeps state issuers cautious
After a steep falloff associated with the financial crisis, tax revenue for the states
rebounded. Tax collections have risen since then, but the pace of recovery has slowed
recently for the states as a whole and even fell slightly in New Jersey. The difficult
revenue picture has generally produced “austerity” budgets, and state governments
have become very selective in the bonds they issue to finance expenditures for
capital improvements and general spending.

In terms of sectors, the long-term fund’s holdings in essential service bonds performed well. Typically issued to finance projects such as water and sewer facilities, these bonds benefit from an income stream dedicated to servicing debt and are therefore less affected by the economic cycle or fluctuations in general tax revenues.

Over the decade, the funds have surpassed their peers

As you know, in March we changed the New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund’s benchmark from the national index to a state-specific one. For the ten years ended November 30, 2012, the bond fund’s average annual return of about 5% trailed the 5.67% return of its new benchmark.

While we keep an eye on benchmark indexes, our most important measure of relative success is how a fund performs compared with peers operating in the same market. Over the past ten years, both the Long-Term Fund and the Money Market Fund have delivered commendable performance. The bond fund’s 5.05% compares with the 4.78% average return of its peers; the Money Market Fund’s 1.38% with its peers’ 1.06%. These results reflect the skilled management of their investment advisor, Vanguard Fixed Income Group. The funds’ low-cost profile has helped as well.

Tune out the “noise”—always a good practice

Municipal bonds have been making headlines periodically since the financial crisis, with a handful of issuers filing for bankruptcy protection. But headlines can be flashier than the underlying reality. Such defaults aren’t necessarily unusual, but they represent only a tiny fraction of the dollar amount of the overall muni market (and typically occur among the types of bonds we steer away from). Moreover, state and municipal debt burdens remain manageable relative to the size of their economies—and the last thing that issuers want is to default and have the door to the muni market closed to them by investors shunning future bond issues.

At Vanguard, our seasoned team of credit analysts continually monitors the underlying realities of the municipal bond market, independent of the hubbub generated by instant reactions to events or ratings assigned by credit rating agencies. Our analysts conduct in-depth reviews of securities we’re considering purchasing, and they keep an eye on changes in the credit quality of those already in our portfolios.

Returns from bonds, both municipal and taxable, have been impressive of late. But, as I mentioned, with current interest rates at very low levels, we anticipate future bond returns will be lower. I point this out

to help set realistic expectations, not to encourage you to abandon a sensible bond allocation. Bonds have an important role to play in a portfolio because of the diversification benefits they provide.

Stepping back from the latest headlines or the latest returns and gaining some perspective before making a decision is a good practice for any investor, for any investment in any environment.

Thank you for entrusting your assets to Vanguard.

Advisor’s Report

For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2012, Vanguard New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund returned 0.04%, compared with an average 0.01% return for peer-group funds. Vanguard New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund returned 11.07% for Investor Shares and 11.15% for Admiral Shares. The Long-Term Fund trailed its benchmark—Barclays New Jersey Municipal Bond Index, which returned 11.65%—as well as the 12.32% average return of its peers.

The investment environment

The fiscal period was marked by another round of untraditional Federal Reserve strategies aimed at lowering interest rates and spurring economic growth. Shortly before the fiscal year began, the Fed

launched “Operation Twist,” a Treasury-bond buying program intended to lower longer-term interest rates. The program was extended during the year and another bond-buying program was added that is aimed at lowering mortgage rates. (Throughout the period, the Fed kept in place a three-year-old policy that has kept short-term yields, including those of securities purchased by Vanguard New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, anchored at historic lows.) Then, shortly after the fiscal year ended, the central bank said that it would tie its monetary program to specific levels of employment improvement—an announcement aimed at making Fed decisions more transparent than they had been historically.

In addition to lowering longer-term yields generally, the impact of the Fed’s policies can be seen in the “flattening” of the yield curve—the spectrum of yields from lowest to highest. For example, 30-year municipal bonds declined during the fiscal year by 1.37 percentage points to 2.47%, compared with a 0.75-percentage-point decline to 1.47% for 10-year bonds. The slide in yields helped boost bond prices and returns (prices and yields move in opposite directions).

New Jersey state and local governments have been taking advantage of the lower interest rates to issue “refunding” bonds, designed to reduce debt costs. Nationally, even though about 20% more bonds were issued during fiscal 2012 than in the same period a year earlier (a 10% decrease in New Jersey), about 60% were earmarked for refunding, the highest ratio in at least 15 years. By contrast, bonds to finance new and upgraded infrastructure projects were issued more selectively by New Jersey and other states as they wrestled with the effect on their budgets of the recession’s continuing legacy.

State and local governments typically lag in recovering from recessions, as taxes from revived levels of income begin percolating through the system. But the depth of the Great Recession, the tribulations of the housing market, and the weaker-than-hoped-for pace of the national economic recovery have slowed the typical pattern even further. This has been the case for New Jersey, which has been recovering from its 2009

economic low point more slowly than the nation, according to an index of state economic conditions published by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. The state’s economy had grown by 4.5% through November 2012, compared with a 7.5% rise for the national economy.

Management of the funds

The strength of the New Jersey municipal bond market during fiscal 2012 stemmed from several factors. The decline in yields, as we mentioned, helped boost prices and fund returns. So did an undersupply of new issues when compared with maturing bonds and other redemptions. Such a period of “net negative supply” made it challenging for us to execute our strategy, given how selective we are in the bonds that we add to our portfolios.

The reduced supply met strong demand from investors, who have become more comfortable with munis after many were spooked by unwarranted fears of systemwide problems in late 2010 and early 2011. In a scramble for yield as the Fed continued ratcheting down interest rates, many investors favored longer-term and high-yield bonds, which carry higher yields as compensation for their greater interest rate and credit risks. The relative valuation of municipal bonds was also attractive. Yields of 10-year munis, for example, stood roughly on a par with those of Treasuries of the same maturity; historically, their average annual yield is about 85% of the yield of comparable Treasuries. Uncertainty over government tax policy also whetted investor demand.

The fund’s 11% return reflected careful bond selection by a team of portfolio managers, traders, and credit analysts. Among their decisions was to increase our holdings of mid-investment-grade (A-rated) bonds by redeploying assets from higher credit quality bonds. (The role of credit analysts, always important at Vanguard, has taken on a higher urgency as state and local governments have struggled in the aftermath of the recession.)

Non-recession-related events have also been influencing budgets. Of course, the region is rebuilding after Hurricane Sandy as the storm caused extensive major damage to businesses and infrastructure, especially along the coast. Although state and federal aid is expected to help with the recovery, we don’t anticipate that the

disaster will have any long-term impact on our portfolio. Even before the storm, revenue collection in New Jersey had been slower than expected. Longer-term, the state has taken initial steps to address the overhang of large pension liabilities, although significant challenges remain.

New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard New Jersey 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. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: 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 income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (November 30, 2009–2012), 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. 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. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At November 30, 2012, the fund had contributed capital of $243,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.10% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers 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 so as 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.

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).

25


 

New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund

At November 30, 2012, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was determined using
amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Amortized
cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a
quoted price in an active market, securities valued at amortized cost are considered to be valued
using Level 2 inputs.

D. In preparing the financial statements as of November 30, 2012, management considered the
impact of subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

(Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost.

New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard New Jersey 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. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: 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.

Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts 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, 2012, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts each represented less than 1% of net assets, based on quarterly average aggregate settlement values.

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (November 30, 2009–2012), 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.

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.

53


 

New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund

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. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At November 30, 2012, the fund had contributed capital of $297,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.12% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers 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).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of November 30, 2012, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Tax-Exempt Municipal Bonds 2,155,346
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (6)
Total (6) 2,155,346
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.

 

D. At November 30, 2012, 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)
10-Year U.S. Treasury Note March 2013 (127) (16,972) (6)

 

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.

For tax purposes, the fund used capital loss carryforwards of $13,094,000 to offset taxable capital gains realized during the year ended November 30, 2012. At November 30, 2012, the fund had available capital losses totaling $20,927,000 to offset future net capital gains of $5,490,000 through November 30, 2016, $10,333,000 through November 30, 2017, and $5,104,000 through November 30, 2019.

At November 30, 2012, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,952,711,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $202,635,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $206,225,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $3,590,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

F. During the year ended November 30, 2012, the fund purchased $448,281,000 of investment securities and sold $321,891,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

G. Capital share transactions for each class of shares were:

  Year Ended November 30,
  2012 2011
  Amount Shares Amount Shares
  ($000) (000) ($000) (000)

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, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian and broker, 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.

Admiral Shares 1,000.00 1,024.47 0.61

 

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 New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, 0.16%; and for the New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund, 0.20% for
Investor Shares and 0.12% for Admiral Shares. 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.

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 Effective Maturity. The average length of time until fixed income securities held by a fund reach maturity and are repaid, taking into consideration the possibility that the issuer may call the bond before its maturity date. 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 effective 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.

59


 

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. 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). “Not Rated” is used to classify securities for which a rating is not available. Credit-quality ratings are obtained from Moody’s and S&P, and the higher rating for each issue is used.

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 180 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.
