Beginning on January 1, 2021, as permitted by regulations adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, paper copies of a Fund’s annual and semi-annual shareholder reports will no longer be sent by mail, unless you specifically request paper copies of the reports from the Fund (or from your financial intermediary, such as a broker-dealer or bank). Instead, the reports will be made available on a Fund’s website (www.ssga.com/geam), and you will be notified by mail each time a report is posted, and provided with a website link to access the report. If you already elected to receive shareholder reports electronically, you will not be affected by this change and you need not take any action. You may elect to receive shareholder reports and other communications from a Fund by calling
800-242-0134.

You may elect to receive all future reports in paper free of charge. If you invest through a financial intermediary, you can contact your financial intermediary to request that you continue to receive paper copies of your shareholder reports. If you invest directly with a Fund, you can inform the Fund that you wish to continue receiving paper copies of your shareholder reports by calling 800-242-0134. Your election to receive reports in paper will apply to all funds held in your account, if you invest through your financial intermediary or all funds held with the fund complex if you invest directly with a Fund.

Information on the following performance pages relates to the Elfun Funds.

Total returns take into account changes in share price and assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. Total returns shown are net of Fund expenses.

The performance data quoted represents past performance; past performance does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. Periods less than one year are not annualized. Please call toll-free (800) 242-0134 or visit the Funds’ website at http://www.ssga.com/geam for the most recent month-end performance data.

A portion of the Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund’s income may be subject to state, federal and/or alternative minimum tax. Capital gains, if any, are subject to capital gains tax.

An investment in a Fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency. An investment in a Fund is subject to risk, including possible loss of principal invested.

Understanding Your Fund’s Expenses — June 30, 2019 (Unaudited)

 

 

As a shareholder of the Fund you incur ongoing costs. Ongoing costs include portfolio management fees, professional fees, administrative fees and other Fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in units of the Fund during the period. The information in the following table is based on an investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period ended June 30, 2019.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you 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 under the heading “Expenses paid during the period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholders reports of other funds.

Please 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, such as sales charges or redemption fees, if any. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Understanding Your Fund’s Expenses — June 30, 2019 (Unaudited)

 

 

As a shareholder of the Fund you incur ongoing costs. Ongoing costs include portfolio management fees, professional fees, administrative fees and other Fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in units of the Fund during the period. The information in the following table is based on an investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period ended June 30, 2019.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you 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 under the heading “Expenses paid during the period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholders reports of other funds.

Please 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, such as sales charges or redemption fees, if any. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund

Understanding Your Fund’s Expenses — June 30, 2019 (Unaudited)

 

 

As a shareholder of the Fund you incur ongoing costs. Ongoing costs include portfolio management fees, professional fees, administrative fees and other Fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in units of the Fund during the period. The information in the following table is based on an investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period ended June 30, 2019.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you 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 under the heading “Expenses paid during the period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholders reports of other funds.

Please 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, such as sales charges or redemption fees, if any. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio of 0.21% (for the period January 1, 2019-June 30, 2019), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

The securities information regarding holdings, allocations and other characteristics is presented to illustrate examples of securities that the Fund has bought and the diversity of areas in which the Fund may invest as of a particular date.

*

Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) are nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. The quality ratings represent the lower of Moody’s or S&P credit ratings. When a rating from only one of the rating agencies is available, that rating is used. Securities not rated by Moody’s or S&P are categorized as not rated. Credit quality measures a bond issuer’s ability to repay interest and principal in a timely manner. Credit quality ratings assigned by a rating agency are subject to change periodically and are not absolute standards of quality. In formulating investment decisions for the Fund, SSGA Funds Management, Inc. develops its own analysis of the credit quality and risks associated with individual debt instruments, rather than relying exclusively on rating agency ratings.

Elfun Income Fund

Understanding Your Fund’s Expenses — June 30, 2019 (Unaudited)

 

 

As a shareholder of the Fund you incur ongoing costs. Ongoing costs include portfolio management fees, professional fees, administrative fees and other Fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in units of the Fund during the period. The information in the following table is based on an investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period ended June 30, 2019.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you 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 under the heading “Expenses paid during the period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholders reports of other funds.

Please 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, such as sales charges or redemption fees, if any. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

*

Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) are nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. The quality ratings represent the lower of Moody’s or S&P credit ratings. When a rating from only one of the rating agencies is available, that rating is used. Securities not rated by Moody’s or S&P are categorized as not rated. Credit quality measures a bond issuer’s ability to repay interest and principal in a timely manner. Credit quality ratings assigned by a rating agency are subject to change periodically and are not absolute standards of quality. In formulating investment decisions for the Fund, SSGA Funds Management, Inc. develops its own analysis of the credit quality and risks associated with individual debt instruments, rather than relying exclusively on rating agency ratings.

Elfun Government Money Market Fund

Understanding Your Fund’s Expenses — June 30, 2019 (Unaudited)

 

 

As a shareholder of the Fund you incur ongoing costs. Ongoing costs include portfolio management fees, professional fees, administrative fees and other Fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in units of the Fund during the period. The information in the following table is based on an investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period ended June 30, 2019.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you 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 under the heading “Expenses paid during the period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholders reports of other funds.

Please 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, such as sales charges or redemption fees, if any. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio of 0.29% (for the period January 1, 2019-June 30, 2019), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Elfun Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — June 30, 2019 (Unaudited)

 

 

1.   Organization of the Funds

The Elfun International Equity Fund, Elfun Trusts, Elfun Diversified Fund, Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund, Elfun Income Fund and Elfun Government Money Market Fund (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are each registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as open-end management investment companies. Each Fund is a diversified investment company within the meaning of the 1940 Act.

Under each Fund’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.

 

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements:

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Each Fund is an investment company under U.S. GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

Security Valuation  Each Fund’s investments are valued at fair value each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open and, for financial reporting purposes, as of the report date should the reporting period end on a day that the NYSE is not open. Fair value is generally defined as the price a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. By its nature, a fair value price is a good faith estimate of the valuation in a current sale and may not reflect an actual market price. The investments of each Fund are valued pursuant to the policy and procedures developed by the Oversight Committee (the “Committee”) and approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Committee provides oversight of the valuation of investments for the Funds. The Board has responsibility for overseeing the determination of the fair value of investments.

Valuation techniques used to value each Fund’s investments by major category are as follows:

 

   

Equity investments (including preferred stocks and registered investment companies that are exchange-traded funds) traded on a recognized securities exchange for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last sale price or official closing price, as applicable, on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. Equity investments traded on a recognized exchange for which there were no sales on that day are valued at the last published sale price or at fair value.

 

   

Investments in registered investment companies (including money market funds) or other unitized pooled investment vehicles that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that day’s published net asset value (“NAV”) per share or unit.

 

   

Government and municipal fixed income securities are generally valued using quotations from independent pricing services or brokers. Certain government inflation-indexed securities may require a calculated fair valuation as the cumulative inflation is contained within the price provided by the pricing service or broker. For these securities, the inflation component of the price is “cleaned” from the pricing service or broker price utilizing the published inflation factors in order to ensure proper accrual of income.

 

   

Debt obligations (including short term investments) are valued using quotations from independent pricing services or brokers or are generally valued at the last reported evaluated prices.

 

   

Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price on the primary market on which they are traded most extensively. Exchange-traded futures contracts traded on a recognized exchange for which there were no sales on that day are valued at the last reported sale price obtained from independent pricing services or brokers or at fair value.

 

   

Options on futures are priced at their last sale price on the principal market on which they are traded on the valuation date. If there were no sales on that day, options on futures are valued at either the last reported sale or official closing price on their primary exchange determined in accordance with the valuation policy and procedures approved by the Board.

Swap agreements are valued daily based upon prices supplied by Board approved pricing vendors or through brokers. Depending on the product and terms of the transaction, the value of agreements is determined using a series of techniques including valuation models that incorporate a number of market data factors, such as discounted cash flows, yields, curves, trades and values of the underlying reference instruments. In the event SSGA Funds Management, Inc. (the “Adviser” or “SSGA FM”) is unable to obtain an independent, third-party valuation the agreements will be fair valued.

In the event prices or quotations are not readily available or that the application of these valuation methods results in a price for an investment that is deemed to be not representative of the fair value of such investment, fair value will be determined in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the valuation policy and procedures approved by the Board.

A “significant event” is an event that the Board believes, with a reasonably high degree of certainty, has caused the closing market prices of a Fund’s portfolio securities to no longer reflect their value at the time of the Fund’s NAV calculation. Fair value may be determined using an independent fair value service under valuation procedures approved by the Board. The independent fair value service takes into account multiple factors including, but not limited to, movements in the U.S. securities markets, certain depositary receipts, futures contracts and foreign currency exchange rates that have occurred subsequent to the close of foreign securities exchanges. The use of the independent fair value service or alternative fair valuation methods would result in the investments being classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Funds value their assets and liabilities at fair value using a fair value hierarchy consisting of three broad levels that prioritize the inputs to valuation techniques giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The categorization of a value determined for an investment within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of the investment and is not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in it.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

   

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for an identical asset or liability;

 

   

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not considered to be active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as exchange rates, financing terms, interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs; and

 

   

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, including the Committee’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments.

The value of each Fund’s investments according to the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2019 is disclosed in each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Investment Transactions and Income Recognition  Investment transactions are accounted for on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Realized gains and losses from the sale or disposition of investments and foreign exchange transactions, if any, are determined using the identified cost method.

Dividend income and capital gain distributions, if any, are recognized on the ex-dividend date, net of any foreign taxes withheld at source, if any.

Interest income is recorded daily on an accrual basis. All premiums and discounts are amortized/accreted for financial reporting purposes.

Non-cash dividends received in the form of stock are recorded as dividend income at fair value.

Expenses  Fund specific expenses are charged to the Fund that incurs such expenses. Such expenses may include custodial fees, legal and accounting fees, printing costs and registration fees. Expenses that are not Fund specific are allocated pro rata across the Funds.

Foreign Currency Translation  The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies as well as investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated to U.S. dollars using exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.

The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

Foreign Taxes  The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, stock dividends, realized and unrealized capital gains on investments or certain foreign currency transactions. Foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with SSGA FM’s understanding of the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the Funds invest. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the Funds and are reflected in the Statements of Operations, if applicable. Foreign taxes payable or deferred as of June 30, 2019, if any, are disclosed in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

 

3.   Securities and Other Investments

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities  During the period, the Elfun Diversified Fund and Elfun Income Fund transacted in securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments. A Fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to such purchase commitments, a Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract’s terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic or other factors.

To-Be-Announced Transactions  Certain Funds may seek to obtain exposure to U.S. agency mortgage pass-through securities through the use of “to-be-announced” or “TBA transactions.” “TBA” refers to a commonly used mechanism for the forward settlement of U.S. agency mortgage pass-through securities. In a TBA transaction, the buyer and seller decide on general trade parameters, such as agency, settlement date, coupon, and price.

A Fund may use TBA transactions to “roll over” such agreements prior to the settlement date. This type of TBA transaction is sometimes known as a “TBA roll.” In a TBA roll, a Fund generally will sell the obligation to purchase the pools stipulated in the TBA agreement prior to the settlement date and will enter into a new TBA agreement for future delivery of pools of mortgage pass-through securities. A Fund may also enter into TBA agreements and settle such transactions on the stipulated settlement date by accepting actual receipt or delivery of the pools of mortgage pass-through securities.

Default by or bankruptcy of a counterparty to a TBA transaction would expose a Fund to possible loss because of adverse market action, expenses or delays in connection with the purchase or sale of the pools of mortgage pass-through securities specified in the TBA transaction. To minimize this risk, a Fund will enter into TBA transactions only with established counterparties. A Fund’s use of “TBA rolls” may impact portfolio turnover, transaction costs and capital gain distributions to shareholders.

Repurchase Agreements  Certain Funds may enter into repurchase agreements under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement. A repurchase agreement customarily obligates the seller at the time it sells securities to a Fund to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed upon price and time. During the term of a repurchase agreement, the value of the underlying securities held as collateral on behalf of a Fund including accrued interest, is required to exceed the value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest.

The applicable Fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure it is at least equal to the Fund’s the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). The underlying securities are ordinarily United States Government or Government Agency securities, but may consist of other securities. The use of repurchase agreements involves certain risks including counterparty risks. In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which the value of the collateral may decline.

As of June 30, 2019, the Elfun Government Money Market Fund had invested in repurchase agreements with the gross values of $25,519,000 and associated collateral equal to $26,029,597.

 

4.   Derivative Financial Instruments

Futures Contracts  Certain Funds may enter into futures contracts to meet the Funds’ objectives. A futures contract is a standardized, exchange-traded agreement to buy or sell a financial instrument at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to deposit with the broker, cash or securities in an amount equal to the minimum initial margin requirements of the clearing house. Subsequent payments are made or received by a Fund equal to the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as variation margin receivable or payable with a corresponding offset to unrealized gains or losses. A Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed.

Losses may arise if the value of a futures contract decreases due to unfavorable changes in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument during the term of the contract or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The use of futures contracts also involves the risk that the movements in the price of the futures contracts do not correlate the movement of the assets underlying such contracts.

During the period ended June 30, 2019, the following Funds entered into futures contracts for strategies listed below:

Credit Default Swaps  During the period ended June 30, 2019, the Elfun Diversified Fund and Elfun Income Fund engaged in credit default swaps to manage credit risk. When a Fund is the buyer in a credit default swap contract, a Fund is entitled to receive the par (or other agreed upon) value (full notional value) of a referenced debt obligation (or basket of debt obligations) from the counterparty (or central clearing party (“CCP”) in the case of a centrally cleared swap) to the contract if a credit event by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer or sovereign issuer, on the debt obligation occurs. In return, a Fund pays the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no credit event has occurred. If no credit event occurs, a Fund loses its investment and recovers nothing. However, if a credit event occurs, a Fund receives full notional value for a referenced debt obligation that may have little or no value. When a Fund is the seller of a credit default swap, it receives a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the contract, provided there is no credit event. If a credit event occurs, a Fund is obligated to pay the notional amount of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of securities of the reference entity upon the occurrence of a credit event, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration and repudiation/moratorium. If a Fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, the maximum potential amount of future payments that a Fund could be required to make would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. This potential amount would be partially offset by any recovery value of the respective referenced obligation, or net amount received from the settlement of a buy protection credit default swap agreement entered into by a Fund for the same referenced obligation.

As the seller, a Fund may create economic leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, a Fund is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. The interest fee paid or received on the swap, which is based on a specified interest rate on a fixed notional amount, is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as realized gain upon receipt or realized loss upon payment. A Fund also records an increase or decrease to unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in an amount equal to the daily valuation. For centrally cleared swaps, the daily change in valuation is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin and settled in cash with the CCP daily. All upfront payments, if any, are amortized over the life of the swap as realized gains or losses. Those upfront payments that are paid or received, typically for non-centrally cleared swaps, are recorded as other assets or other liabilities, respectively, net of amortization. For financial reporting purposes, unamortized upfront payments, if any, are netted with unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swaps to determine the market value of swaps. A Fund segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the notional amount of the credit default swaps of which it is the seller. A Fund segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to any unrealized depreciation of the credit default swaps of which it is the buyer, marked to market on a daily basis. Credit default swaps involve greater risks than if a Fund had invested

in the referenced debt obligation directly. If a Fund is a buyer of a credit default swap and no credit event occurs, a Fund will not earn any return on its investment. If a Fund is a seller of a credit default swap, a Fund’s risk of loss may be the entire notional amount of the swap. Swaps may also subject a Fund to the risk that the counterparty to the transaction may not fulfill its obligation. In the case of centrally cleared swaps, counterparty risk is minimal due to protections provided by the CCP.

Interest Rate Swaps  Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by a Fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, such as an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate payments.

During the period ended June 30, 2019, the Elfun Diversified Fund and Elfun Income Fund entered into interest rate swaps in order to manage exposure to interest rates.

Options on Exchanged-Traded Futures Contracts  Certain Funds may purchase and write options, including options on exchanged-traded futures contracts, subject to certain limitations. Writing puts and buying calls tend to increase a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument while buying puts and writing calls tend to decrease a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. A Fund will not enter into a transaction involving options for speculative purposes. A Fund’s risks in using these contracts include changes in the value of the underlying instruments, non-performance of the counterparties under the contracts’ terms and changes in the liquidity of the secondary market for the contracts.

When a Fund writes an option, the amount of the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current fair value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by a Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from investments. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase, as a realized loss. When an option is exercised, the proceeds from the sale of the underlying instrument or the cost basis of the securities purchased is adjusted by the original premium received or paid. In return for a premium paid, call and put options on futures contracts give the holder the right, but not the obligation, to purchase or sell, respectively, a position in a particular futures contract at a specified exercise price.

During the period ended June 30, 2019, the Elfun Diversified Fund and the Elfun Income Fund purchased and wrote options in order to manage interest rate risk.

8.   Income Tax Information

The Funds have qualified and intend to continue to qualify as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Fund will not be subject to the federal income taxes to the extent it distributes its taxable income, including any net realized capital gains, for each fiscal year. Therefore, no provision for federal income tax is required.

The Funds file federal and various state and local tax returns as required. No income tax returns are currently under examination. Generally, the federal returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from date of filing, while the state returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon jurisdiction. SSGA FM has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions and does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions that would require recognition of a tax liability.

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on ex-dividend date. Income dividends and gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax rules and regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.

As of June 30, 2019, gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation of investments and other financial instruments based on cost for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

9.   Line of Credit

The Funds (excluding the Elfun Government Money Market Fund) and other affiliated funds (each, a “Participant” and collectively, the “Participants”) participate in a $500 million revolving credit facility provided by a syndication of banks under which the Participants may borrow to fund shareholder redemptions. This agreement expires October 10, 2019 unless extended or renewed.

The Participants are charged an annual commitment fee which is calculated based on the unused portion of the shared credit line. Commitment fees are allocated among each of the Participants based on relative net assets. Commitment fees are ordinary fund operating expenses. A Participant incurs and pays the interest expense related to its borrowing. Interest is calculated at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 1% plus the greater of the New York Fed Bank Rate and 1-month LIBOR rate.

The Funds had no outstanding loans as of June 30, 2019.

 

10.   Risks

Concentration Risk  As a result of a Fund’s ability to invest a large percentage of its assets in obligations of issuers within the same country, state, region, currency or economic sector, an adverse economic, business or political development may affect the value of a Fund’s investments more than if a Fund was more broadly diversified.

Interest Rate Risk  Is the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. Bond prices generally rise when interest rates decline and generally decline when interest rates rise. Changes in governmental policy, including changes in central bank monetary policy, could cause interest rates to rise rapidly, or cause investors to expect a rapid rise in interest rates. This could lead to heightened levels of interest rate, volatility and liquidity risks for the fixed income markets generally and could have substantial and immediate effect on the values of a Fund’s investments.

Foreign and Emerging Markets Risk  Investing in foreign markets involves risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the U.S. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of government regulation, economic, political and social instability in the countries in which a Fund invests. Foreign markets may be less liquid than investments in the U.S. and may be subject to the risks of currency fluctuations. To the extent that a Fund invests in securities of issuers located in emerging markets, these risks may be even more pronounced.

Market and Credit Risk  In the normal course of business, a Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the general economic conditions and fluctuations of the market (market risk). Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which a Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

 

11.   Change in Accounting Principle

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-08, Receivables — Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20) — Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities (“ASU 2017-08”). For callable debt securities held at a premium that have explicit, non-contingent call features and that are callable at fixed prices on preset dates, ASU 2017-08 requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The adoption resulted in a change in accounting principle, since the Funds had historically amortized such premiums to maturity for U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the Funds have adopted ASU 2017-08 to amend the premium amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities with non-contingent call features to the earliest call date. In accordance with the transition provisions of the standard, each Fund applied the amendments on a modified retrospective basis by recognizing a cumulative effect adjustment that decreased the beginning of period cost of investments and increased the unrealized appreciation on investments as follows:

 

Fund    Adjustment  

Elfun Diversified Fund

   $ 5,002  

Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund

     15,982,599  

Elfun Income Fund

     17,310  

This change in accounting policy has been made to comply with the newly issued accounting standard and had no impact on total accumulated earnings (loss) or the net asset value of each Fund. With respect to each Fund’s results of operations, amortization of premium to first call date accelerates amortization with the intent of more closely aligning the recognition of income on such bonds with the economics of the instrument.

Trustee Considerations in Approving Continuation of Investment Advisory Agreements2

Overview of the Contract Review Process

Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), an investment advisory agreement between a mutual fund and its investment adviser may continue in effect from year to year only if its continuance is approved at least annually by the fund’s board of trustees or its shareholders, and by a vote of a majority of those trustees who are not “interested persons” of the fund (commonly referred to as, the “Independent Trustees”) cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering such approval.

Consistent with these requirements, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of the Elfun Funds, met in person on April 10, 2019 and May 15, 2019, including in executive sessions attended by the Independent Trustees, to consider a proposal to approve, with respect to each Fund, the continuation of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with SSGA Funds Management, Inc. (“SSGA FM” or the “Adviser”). Prior to voting on the proposal, the Independent Trustees, as well as the Trustees who are “interested persons” of the Adviser, reviewed information furnished by the Adviser and others reasonably necessary to permit the Board to evaluate the proposal fully. The Independent Trustees were separately represented by counsel who are independent of the Adviser in connection with their consideration of approval of the Advisory Agreement. Following the April 10, 2019 meeting, the Independent Trustees submitted questions and requests for additional information to management, and considered management’s responses thereto prior to and at the May 15, 2019 meeting. The Independent Trustees considered, among other things, the following:

Information about Performance, Expenses and Fees

 

 

A report prepared by an independent third-party provider of investment company data, which includes for each Fund:

 

   

Comparisons of the Fund’s performance over the past one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2018, to the performance of an appropriate benchmark constructed by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) for the Fund (the “Lipper Index”) and a universe of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and policies (the “Performance Group” and/or the “Performance Universe”);

 

   

Comparisons of the Fund’s expense ratio (with detail of component expenses) to the expense ratios of a group of comparable mutual funds selected by the independent third-party data provider (the “Expense Group” and/or “Expense Universe”);

 

   

A chart showing the Fund’s historical average net assets relative to its total expenses, management fees, and non-management expenses over the past five calendar years; and

 

   

Comparisons of the Fund’s contractual management fee to the contractual management fees of comparable mutual funds at different asset levels.

 

Other Information     103

The “Elfun Funds” include the Elfun Trusts, Elfun International Equity Fund, Elfun Diversified Fund, Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund, Elfun Income Fund, Elfun Government Money Market Fund (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”).

 

2 

The Independent Trustees have identified numerous relevant issues, factors and concerns (“issues, factors and concerns”) that they consider each year in connection with the proposed continuation of the advisory agreements, the administration agreement, the distribution plans, the distribution agreement and various related-party service agreements (the “annual review process”). The statement of issues, factors and concerns and the related conclusions of the Independent Trustees may not change substantially from year to year. However, the information requested by, and provided to, the Independent Trustees with respect to the issues, factors and concerns and on which their conclusions are based is updated annually and, in some cases, may differ substantially from the previous year. The Independent Trustees schedule annually a separate in-person meeting that is dedicated to the annual review process (the “special meeting”). At the special meeting and throughout the annual review process, the Independent Trustees take a fresh look at each of the issues, factors and concerns in light of the latest available information and each year present one or more sets of comments and questions to management with respect to specific issues, factors and concerns. Management responds to such comments and questions to the satisfaction of the Independent Trustees before the annual review process is completed and prior to the Independent Trustees voting on proposals to approve continuation of the agreements and plans.

Materials provided by Broadridge, circulated to the Independent Trustees and to Independent Counsel; and

 

 

A summary of the foregoing materials prepared by Independent Counsel.

In addition to the information identified above, the Board considered information provided from time to time by the Adviser, and other service providers of the Funds throughout the year at meetings of the Board and its committees. At such meetings, the Trustees received, among other things, presentations by the portfolio managers and other investment professionals of the Adviser relating to the performance of the Funds and the investment strategies used in pursuing each Fund’s investment objective.

The Independent Trustees were assisted throughout the contract review process by their Independent Counsel. The Independent Trustees relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the Advisory Agreement, and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached with respect to the Advisory Agreement were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all the information provided and not any single factor. Moreover, each Trustee may have placed varying emphasis on particular factors in reaching conclusions with respect to each Fund.

Results of the Process

Based on a consideration of the foregoing and such other information as deemed relevant, including the factors and conclusions described below, on May 15, 2019 the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement effective June 1, 2019, for an additional year with respect to all Funds.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In considering whether to approve the Advisory Agreement, the Board evaluated the nature, extent and quality of services provided to each Fund by the Adviser.

The Board considered the Adviser’s management capabilities and investment process with respect to the types of investments held by each Fund, including the education, experience and number of investment professionals and other personnel who provide portfolio management, investment research, and similar services to the Fund. The Board evaluated, where relevant, the abilities and experience of such investment personnel in analyzing particular markets, industries and specific issuers of securities in these markets and industries. The Board also considered the substantial expertise of the Adviser in developing and applying proprietary quantitative models for managing various Funds that invest primarily in equity securities or money market instruments. With respect to those Funds that invest primarily in fixed-income securities, the Board considered the extensive experience and resources committed by the Adviser to the evaluation of a portfolio’s quality distribution and sector and interest rate exposure. The Board considered the extensive experience and resources committed by the Adviser to risk management, including with respect to investment risk, liquidity risk, operational risk, counterparty risk and model risk. The Trustees also considered the significant risks assumed by the Adviser in connection with the services provided to the Funds, including reputational and entrepreneurial risks. The Board also took into account the compensation paid to recruit and retain investment personnel, and the time and attention devoted to the Funds by senior management.

The Board had previously reviewed the compliance programs of SSGA FM and various affiliated service providers. Among other things, the Board considered compliance and reporting matters relating to personal trading by investment personnel, selective disclosure of portfolio holdings, late trading, frequent trading, portfolio valuation, business continuity, the allocation of investment opportunities and the voting of proxies.

On the basis of the foregoing and other relevant information, the Board concluded that the Adviser can be expected to continue to provide high quality investment management and related services for the Funds.

Fund Performance

The Board compared each Fund’s investment performance to the performance of an appropriate benchmark and universe of comparable mutual funds for various time periods ended December 31, 2018. For purposes of these comparisons the Independent

Trustees relied extensively on the Performance Group, Performance Universe and Lipper Index and the analyses of the related data provided by Broadridge. Among other information, the Board considered the following performance information in its evaluation of each Fund:

Elfun Trusts. The Board considered that the Fund’s performance was below the medians of its Performance Group and Performance Universe and below its Lipper Index for the 1-, 3- and 5- year periods and below the median of its Performance Universe and below its Lipper Index, and equal to the median of the Performance Group, for the 10-year period. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance.

Elfun International Equity Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s performance was below the median of its Performance Group for the 1-, 3- and 5-year periods and below the median of its Performance Universe and below its Lipper Index for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods, and above the median of its Performance Group for the 10-year period. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance.

Elfun Diversified Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s performance was above the median of its Performance Group for the 1-year period, equal to the median of its Performance Group for the 5-year period and below the median of the Performance Group for the 3- and 10-year periods. The Board also considered that the Fund’s performance was above the median of the Performance Universe for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods and above its Lipper Index for the 1- and 5-year periods and below the Lipper Index for the 3- and 10-year periods. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance.

Elfun Government Money Market Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s performance was above the medians of its Performance Group and Performance Universe and above its Lipper Index for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10- year periods.

Elfun Income Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s performance was above the median of its Performance Group for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods, and above the median of its Performance Universe for 3- and 5-year periods. The Board also considered that the Fund’s performance was below the median of its Performance Universe for the 1- and 10-year periods and below its Lipper Index for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance.

Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s performance was above the medians of its Performance Group and Performance Universe for the 1-year period, below the medians of its Performance Group and Performance Universe for the 3-, 5- and 10-year periods and below its Lipper Index for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance.

On the basis of the foregoing and other relevant information, the Board concluded that the performance of each Fund is satisfactory (a) by comparison to the performance of its Performance Group, Performance Universe or Lipper Index or (b) after considering steps taken by management to improve the performance of certain Funds.

Management Fees and Expenses

The Board reviewed the contractual investment advisory fee rates payable by each Fund and actual fees paid by each Fund, net of waivers. As part of its review, the Board considered each Fund’s management fee and total expense ratio, including the portion attributable to administrative services provided by SSGA FM (both before and after giving effect to any expense caps), as compared to its Expense Group and Expense Universe, as constructed by Broadridge, and the related Broadridge analysis for each of the Funds. The Board also considered the comparability of the fees charged and the services provided to each Fund by the Adviser to the fees charged and services provided to other clients of the Adviser, including institutional accounts, as applicable. In addition, the Board considered the willingness of the Adviser to provide undertakings from time to time to waive fees or pay expenses of various Funds to limit the total expenses borne by shareholders of such Funds. Among other information, the Board considered the following expense information in its evaluation of each Fund:

Elfun Trusts. The Board considered that the Fund’s actual management fee was below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe. The Board also considered that the Fund’s total expenses were below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe.

Elfun International Equity Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s actual management fee was below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe. The Board also considered that the Fund’s total expenses were below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe.

Elfun Diversified Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s actual management fee was below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe. The Board also considered that the Fund’s total expenses were below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe.

Elfun Government Money Market Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s actual management fee was below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe. The Board also considered that the Fund’s total expenses were below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe.

Elfun Income Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s actual management fee was below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe. The Board also considered that the Fund’s total expenses were below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe.

Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s actual management fee was below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe. The Board also considered that the Fund’s total expenses were below the medians of its Expense Group and Expense Universe.

On the basis of the foregoing and other relevant information, and in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board concluded that the fees and the expense ratio of each Fund compare favorably to the fees and expenses of the Expense Group and Expense Universe and are reasonable in relation to the services provided.

Profitability

The Board reviewed the level of profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates in providing investment advisory and other services to each Fund and to all funds within the fund complex. The Board considered other direct and indirect benefits received by SSGA FM and Affiliated Service Providers in connection with their relationships with the Funds, including, where applicable, soft dollar commission benefits generated through Fund portfolio transactions. The Board further considered the profitability of each of the Affiliated Service Providers with respect to their services to the Funds and/or fund complex. The Board also considered the various risks borne by SSGA FM and State Street in connection with their various roles in servicing the Funds, including reputational and entrepreneurial risks.

The Board concluded that the profitability of the Adviser with respect to each of the Funds, and the profitability range of each of the Affiliated Service Providers with respect to its services to the Funds, were reasonable in relation to the services provided.

Economies of Scale

In reviewing management fees and profitability, the Board also considered the extent to which the Adviser and its affiliates, on the one hand, and each Fund and all Funds as a group, on the other hand, can expect to realize benefits from economies of scale as the assets of the Funds increase. The Board acknowledged the difficulty in accurately measuring the benefits resulting from the economies of scale with respect to the management of any specific Fund or the Funds taken as a whole. The Board concluded that, in light of the current size of each Fund and all Funds as a group, the level of profitability of the Adviser and its affiliates with respect to each Fund and all Funds as a group over various time periods, and the comparative management fee and expense ratio of each Fund during these periods, it does not appear that the Adviser or its affiliates has realized benefits from economies of scale in managing the assets of the Funds to such an extent that previously agreed advisory fees should be reduced or that breakpoints in such fees should be implemented for any Fund at this time.

Conclusions

In reaching its decision to approve the Advisory Agreement, the Board did not identify any single factor as being controlling, but based its recommendation on each of the factors it considered. Each Trustee may have contributed different weight to the various factors. Based upon the materials reviewed, the representations made and the considerations described above, and as part of its deliberations, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the Adviser possesses the capability and resources to perform the duties required of it under the Advisory Agreement.

Further, based upon its review of the Advisory Agreement, the materials provided, and the considerations described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that (1) the terms of the Advisory Agreement are reasonable, fair, and in the best interests of each Fund and its respective shareholders, and (2) the rates payable under the Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable in light of the usual and customary charges made for services of the same nature and quality.
