Table of Contents

Dear Shareholder

The past 12 months saw a seismic shift in market sentiment — from fear and pessimism during the worst economic decline and crisis of confidence in financial markets since The Great Depression, to exuberance and increasing optimism amid emerging signs of recovery. The period began on the heels of the infamous collapse of Lehman Brothers, which triggered an intensifying deterioration in global economic activity in the final months of 2008 and the early months of 2009 and resulted in massive government intervention (on a global scale) in the financial system and the economy. The tide turned dramatically in March 2009, however, on the back of new US government initiatives, as well as better-than-expected economic data and upside surprises in corporate earnings.

Not surprisingly, US equities endured extreme volatility in this environment — steep declines and heightened risk aversion in the early part of the reporting period gave way to an impressive seven-month rally that began in March. This rally has pushed all major indexes well into positive territory for 2009. Stocks did experience modest setbacks in June and then again in late September and early October, but the overall trajectory was up. The experience in international markets was similar to that in the United States. Prominent in the rally have been emerging markets, which were less affected by the global credit crunch and are experiencing faster economic growth rates when compared to the developed world.

In fixed income markets, the flight-to-safety premium in Treasury securities prevailed during the equity market downturn, but concerns about deficit spending, debt issuance, inflation and dollar weakness have kept Treasury yields range bound in recent months. At the same time, near-zero interest rates on risk-free assets, coupled with an improving macro environment, prompted many investors to reallocate money from cash investments into higher-yielding and riskier non-Treasury assets, bidding those prices higher. The high yield sector was the greatest beneficiary of this move, having decisively outpaced all other taxable asset classes since the start of 2009. Similarly, the municipal bond market is on pace for its best performance year ever in 2009, following one of its worst years in 2008. Investor demand remains strong while the Build America Bonds program has alleviated supply pressures, creating a highly favorable technical backdrop. Municipal bond mutual funds are seeing record inflows, reflecting the renewed investor interest in the asset class.

Disclosure of Expenses

Shareholders of each Portfolio may incur the following charges: (a) expenses related to transactions, including sales charges; and (b) operating expenses, including advisory fees, service and distribution fees including 12b-1 fees, and other Portfolio expenses. The expense examples below (which are based on a hypothetical investment of $1,000 invested on April 1, 2009 and held through September 30, 2009) are intended to assist shareholders both in calculating expenses based on an investment in each Portfolio and in comparing these expenses with similar costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The tables below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. In order to estimate the expenses a shareholder paid during the period covered by this report, shareholders can divide their account value by $1,000 and then multiply the result by the number corresponding to their Portfolio and share class under the headings entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period.”

The tables also provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Portfolio’s actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses. In order to assist shareholders in comparing the ongoing expenses of investing in each Portfolio and other funds, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in other funds’ shareholder reports.

The expenses shown in the tables are intended to highlight shareholders’ ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional expenses, such as sales charges, redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical tables are useful in comparing ongoing expenses only, and will not help shareholders determine the relative total expenses of owning different funds. If these transactional expenses were included, shareholder expenses would have been higher.

Schedule of Investments (concluded)    Money Market Portfolio

 

 

Fair Value Measurements – Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

 

   

Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market – corroborated inputs)

 

   

Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Portfolio’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to the Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of September 30, 2009 in determining the fair valuation of the Portfolio’s investments:

Fair Value Measurements – Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

 

   

Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market – corroborated inputs)

 

   

Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Portfolio’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of September 30, 2009 in determining the fair valuation of the Portfolio’s investments:

Fair Value Measurements – Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

 

   

Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market – corroborated inputs)

 

   

Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Portfolio’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of September 30, 2009 in determining the fair valuation of the Portfolio’s investments:

Fair Value Measurements – Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

 

   

Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market – corroborated inputs)

 

   

Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Portfolio’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements – Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

 

   

Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market – corroborated inputs)

 

   

Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Portfolio’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements – Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

 

   

Level 2 – other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market – corroborated inputs)

 

   

Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Portfolio’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of September 30, 2009 in determining the fair valuation of the Portfolio’s investments:

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies:

BlackRock FundsSM (the “Fund”), a Massachusetts business trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. As of September 30, 2009, the Fund had 27 registered portfolios, of which BlackRock Money Market Portfolio (“Money Market”), BlackRock U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio (“U.S. Treasury”), BlackRock Municipal Money Market Portfolio (“Municipal”), BlackRock New Jersey Municipal Money Market Portfolio (“New Jersey Municipal”), BlackRock North Carolina Municipal Money Market Portfolio (“North Carolina Municipal”), BlackRock Ohio Municipal Money Market Portfolio (“Ohio Municipal”), BlackRock Pennsylvania Municipal Money Market Portfolio (“Pennsylvania Municipal”) and BlackRock Virginia Municipal Money Market Portfolio (“Virginia Municipal”) (collectively the “Portfolios”) are included in these financial statements. The Portfolios’ financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which may require the use of management accruals and estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Each Portfolio may offer Shares of Institutional, Service, Investor A, Investor B and Investor C classes. In addition, Money Market and Municipal may offer Hilliard Lyons Shares. All classes of shares have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except that the Service, Hilliard Lyons, Investor A, Investor B and Investor C Shares bear certain expenses related to the service of such shares and Investor B and Investor C Shares also bear certain expenses related to the distribution of such shares. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters relating to its servicing and distribution expenditures (except that Investor B shareholders may vote on material changes to the Investor A distribution plan).

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Portfolios:

Valuation: The Portfolios’ securities are valued under the amortized cost method which approximates current market value in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Under this method, securities are valued at cost when purchased and thereafter, a constant proportionate amortization of any discount or premium is recorded until the maturity of the security.

Repurchase Agreements: The Portfolios may invest in US government and agency securities pursuant to repurchase agreements. Under such agreements, the counterparty agrees to repurchase the security at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The counterparty will be required on a daily basis to maintain the value of the securities subject to the agreement at no less than the repurchase price. The agreements are conditioned upon the collateral being deposited under the Federal Reserve book entry system or held in a segregated account by each Portfolio’s custodian. In the event the counterparty defaults and the fair value of the collateral declines, the Portfolios could experience losses, delays and costs in liquidating the collateral.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income: For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are recorded on the dates the transactions are entered into (the trade dates). Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recognized on the accrual method. The Portfolios amortize all premiums and discounts on debt securities. Income and realized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class based on its relative net assets.

Dividends and Distributions: Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly. Distributions of realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend dates.

Income Taxes: It is the Portfolios’ policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their taxable income to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

The Portfolios file US federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on each Portfolio’s US federal income tax returns remains open for each of the three years ended September 30, 2008 and the period ended March 31, 2009. The statutes of limitations on each Portfolio’s state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement: In June 2009, amended guidance was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board for transfers of financial assets. This guidance is intended to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. The amended guidance is effective for financial statements for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2009. Earlier application is prohibited. The recognition and measurement provisions of this guidance must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. Additionally, the enhanced disclosure provisions of the amended guidance should be applied to transfers that occurred both before and after the effective date of this guidance. The impact of this guidance on the Portfolios’ financial statements and disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.

Other: Expenses directly related to a Portfolio or class are charged to that Portfolio or its classes. Other operating expenses shared by several funds are prorated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Other expenses of a Portfolio are allocated daily to each class based on its relative net assets.

2. Investment Advisory Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (“PNC”) and Bank of America Corporation (“BAC”) are the largest stockholders of BlackRock, Inc., (“BlackRock”). Due to the ownership structure, PNC is an affiliate for 1940 Act purpose, but BAC is not.

The Fund, on behalf of the Portfolios, entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), the Portfolios’ investment advisor, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, to provide investment advisory and administration services.

The Manager is responsible for the management of each Portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of the Portfolios. For such services, each Portfolio pays the Manager a monthly fee, based on the average daily net assets at the following annual rates: 0.45% of the first $1 billion, 0.40% of the next $1 billion, 0.375% of the next $1 billion and 0.35% of the assets in excess of $3 billion.

The Manager has entered into separate sub-advisory agreements with BlackRock Institutional Management Corporation (“BIMC”), an affiliate of the Manager, pursuant to which BIMC serves as sub-advisor for each Portfolio. The Manager pays the sub-advisor, for services it provides, a monthly fee that is a percentage of the investment advisory fees paid by the Portfolios to the Manager.

The Manager contractually agreed to waive or reimburse fees or expenses, excluding interest expense, dividend expense, acquired fund fees and expenses and certain other fund expenses until August 1, 2010, in order to limit expenses. This agreement is reviewed annually by the Board. The current expense limitations as a percentage of net assets were as follows:

PFPC Trust Company, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of PNC, serves as custodian for each Portfolio. For these services, the custodian receives a fee computed daily and payable monthly, based on a percentage of the average daily gross assets of each Portfolio. The fee is paid at the following annual rates: 0.0025% of the first $2 billion and 0.002% of average daily gross assets in excess of $2 billion; plus per transaction charges and other miscellaneous fees incurred on behalf of each Portfolio.

Pursuant to the Fund’s operating procedures, custodian fees may be reduced by amounts calculated on uninvested cash balances, which are included on the Statements of Operations as fees paid indirectly.

PNC Global Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (“PNCGIS”), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of PNC, serves as transfer and dividend disbursing agent. Each class of each Portfolio bears the costs of transfer agent fees associated with such respective class. Transfer agent fees borne by each class of each Portfolio are comprised of those fees charged for all shareholder communications, including mailing of shareholder reports, dividend and distribution notices, and proxy materials for shareholders meetings, as well as per account and per transaction fees related to servicing and maintenance of shareholder accounts, including the issuing, redeeming and transferring of shares of each class of each Portfolio, 12b-1 fee calculations, check writing, anti-money laundering services, and customer identification services.

Pursuant to written agreements, affiliates provide certain Portfolios with sub-accounting, recordkeeping, sub-transfer agency and other administrative services with respect to sub-accounts they service. For these services, these affiliates receive an annual fee per shareholder account which will vary depending on share class. For the six months ended September 30, 2009, the Portfolios paid the following fees in return for these services, which are included in transfer agent fees – class specific in the Statements of Operations:

PNCGIS and the Manager act as co-administrators for the Portfolios. For these services, the co-administrators receive a combined administration fee computed daily and payable monthly, based on a percentage of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio. The combined administration fee is paid at the following annual rates: 0.075% of the first $500 million, 0.065% of the next $500 million and 0.055% of the average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. In addition, each of the share classes is charged an administration fee based on the following percentages of average daily net assets of each respective class: 0.025% of the first $500 million of each Portfolio, 0.015% of the next $500 million and 0.005% of the average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. In addition, PNCGIS and the Manager may have, at their discretion, voluntarily waived all or any portion of their administration fees for a Portfolio or a share class.

The Fund, on behalf of the Portfolios, has entered into a separate Distribution Agreement and Distribution Plan with BlackRock Investments, LLC (“BRIL”), an affiliate of BlackRock. Pursuant to the

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

Distribution Plan and in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Portfolios pay BRIL ongoing service and distribution fees. The fees are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates based upon the average daily net assets of the shares of each Portfolio as follows:

Pursuant to sub-agreements with BRIL, broker-dealers, including Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“MLPF&S”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch, and BRIL provide shareholder servicing and distribution services to each Portfolio. The ongoing service and/or distribution fee compensates BRIL and each broker-dealer for providing shareholder servicing and/or distribution related services to Service, Hillard Lyons, Investor A, Investor B and Investor C shareholders.

The Manager and BRIL voluntarily agreed to waive management and service fees and reimburse operating expenses to enable the Portfolios to maintain a minimum daily net investment income dividend. These amounts are reported in the Statements of Operations as fees waived by advisor, service fees waived – class specific and transfer agent fees reimbursed – class specific. The Manager and BRIL may discontinue the waiver or reimbursement at any time.

The Manager maintains a call center, which is responsible for providing certain shareholder services to the Portfolios, such as responding to shareholder inquiries and processing transactions based upon instructions from shareholders with respect to the subscription and redemption of Portfolio shares. For the six months ended September 30, 2009, each Portfolio reimbursed the Manager the following amounts for costs incurred in running the call center, which are included in transfer agent – class specific in the Statements of Operations.

If during a Portfolio’s fiscal year, the operating expenses of a share class, that at any time during the prior two fiscal years received a waiver or reimbursement from the Manager, are less than the expense limit for that share class, the Manager is entitled to be reimbursed by such share class up to the amount of fees waived or expenses reimbursed during those prior two years under the agreement, provided that: (1) the Portfolio of which

the share class is a part has more than $50 million in assets; and (2) the Manager or an affiliate continues to serve as the Portfolio’s investment advisor or administrator.

4. Market and Credit Risk:

The New Jersey Money Fund, North Carolina Money Fund, Ohio Money Fund, Pennsylvania Money Fund and Virginia Money Fund invest a substantial amount of their assets in issuers located in a single state or limited number of states. Please see the Schedules of Investments for concentrations in specific states.

In the normal course of business, the Portfolios invest in securities and enter into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of issuer of a security to meet all its obligations (credit risk). The value of securities held by the Portfolios may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Portfolios; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to credit risk, the Portfolios may be exposed to counterparty risk or the risk that an entity with which the Portfolios have unsettled or open transactions may default. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Portfolios to credit and counterparty risks, consist principally of investments and cash due from counterparties. The extent of the Portfolios’ exposure to credit and counterparty risks with respect to these financial assets approximated by their value recorded in the Portfolios’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

5. Capital Shares Transactions:

The number of shares sold, reinvested and redeemed corresponds to the net proceeds from sale of shares, reinvestments of dividends and cost of shares redeemed, respectively, since shares are redeemed at $1.00 per share.

Transactions in capital shares for each class were as follows:

6. Federal Insurance:

The Portfolios participated in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the “Program”). As a result of the Portfolios’ participation in the Program, in the event a Portfolio’s net asset value fell below $0.995 per share, shareholders in that Portfolio would have had federal insurance of $1.00 per share up to the lesser of a shareholder’s balance in the Portfolio as of the close of business on September 19, 2008, or the amount held in the Portfolio by the shareholder on the date the guarantee was triggered. Any increase in the number of shares in a shareholder’s account after the close of business on September 19, 2008 and any investments after a shareholder closed their account would not have been guaranteed. As a participant in the Program, which expired September 18, 2009, the Portfolios paid a participation fee of 0.03% for the period December 19, 2008 through September 18, 2009 of the Portfolios’ shares outstanding value as of September 19, 2008. The participation fee for period April 1, 2009 to September 18, 2009 is included in federal insurance in the Statement of Operations. These fees are not covered by the contractual agreement to reduce fees and reimburse expenses.

7. Subsequent Events:

Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Portfolios through November 25, 2009, the date the financial statements were issued, and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement

The Board of Trustees (the “Board,” and the members of which are referred to as “Board Members”) of BlackRock FundsSM (the “Fund”) met on April 16, 2009 and May 21-22, 2009 to consider the approval of the Fund’s investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), the Fund’s investment advisor, with respect to each of the Money Market Portfolios of the Fund (each, a “Portfolio,” and together, the “Portfolios”). The Board also considered the approval of the sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between the Manager and BlackRock Institutional Management Corporation (the “Sub-Advisor”) with respect to each Portfolio. The Manager and the Sub-Advisor are referred to herein as “BlackRock.” The Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement are referred to herein as the “Agreements.”

Activities and Composition of the Board

The Board consists of thirteen individuals, eleven of whom are not “interested persons” of the Fund as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) (the “Independent Board Members”). The Board Members are responsible for the oversight of the operations of the Fund and perform the various duties imposed on the directors of investment companies by the 1940 Act. The Independent Board Members have retained independent legal counsel to assist them in connection with their duties. The Co-Chairs of the Board are each Independent Board Members. The Board has established five standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Governance and Nominating Committee, a Compliance Committee, a Performance Oversight and Contract Committee and an Executive Committee, each of which is composed of Independent Board Members (except for the Performance Oversight and Contract Committee and the Executive Committee, which each have one interested Board Member) and is chaired by Independent Board Member.

The Agreements

Pursuant to the 1940 Act, the Board is required to consider the continuation of the Agreements on an annual basis. In connection with this process, the Board assessed, among other things, the nature, scope and quality of the services provided to each Portfolio by the personnel of BlackRock and its affiliates, including investment management, administrative and shareholder services, oversight of fund accounting and custody, marketing services and assistance in meeting applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Throughout the year, the Board, acting directly and through its committees, considers at each of its meetings factors that are relevant to its annual consideration of the renewal of the Agreements, including the services and support provided by BlackRock to the Portfolios and their shareholders. Among the matters the Board considered were: (a) investment performance for one-, three- and five-year periods, as applicable, against peer funds, and applicable benchmarks, if any, as well as senior management and portfolio managers’ analysis of the reasons for any out performance or underperformance against its peers; (b) fees, including advisory, administration, if applicable, and other amounts paid to BlackRock and its affiliates by the Portfolios for services, such as transfer agency, marketing and distribution, call center and fund accounting; (c) each Portfolio’s operating expenses; (d) the resources devoted to and compliance reports relating to each Portfolio’s investment objective, policies and restrictions, (e) the Fund’s compliance with its Code of Ethics and compliance policies and procedures; (f) the nature, cost and character of non-investment management services provided by BlackRock and its affiliates; (g) BlackRock’s and other service providers’ internal controls; (h) BlackRock’s implementation of the proxy voting policies approved by the Board; (i) execution quality of portfolio transactions; (j) BlackRock’s implementation of the Fund’s valuation and liquidity procedures; and (k) periodic updates on BlackRock’s business.

Board Considerations in Approving the Agreements

The Approval Process: Prior to the April 16, 2009 meeting, the Board requested and received materials specifically relating to the Agreements. The Board is engaged in an ongoing process with BlackRock to continuously review the nature and scope of the information provided to better assist its deliberations. The materials provided in connection with the April meeting included (a) information independently compiled and prepared by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”) on each Portfolio’s fees and expenses, and the investment performance of each Portfolio as compared with a peer group of funds as determined by Lipper and, as pertinent, a customized peer group selected by BlackRock (collectively, “Peers”); (b) information on the profitability of the Agreements to BlackRock and a discussion of fall-out benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates and significant shareholders; (c) a general analysis provided by BlackRock concerning investment advisory fees charged to other clients, such as institutional clients, under similar investment mandates, as well as the performance of such other clients; (d) the impact of economies of scale; (e) a summary of aggregate amounts paid by each Portfolio to BlackRock; (f) sales and redemption data regarding each Portfolio’s shares; and (g) an internal comparison of management fees classified by Lipper, if applicable.

At an in-person meeting held on April 16, 2009, the Board reviewed materials relating to its consideration of the Agreements. As a result of the discussions that occurred during the April 16, 2009 meeting, the Board presented BlackRock with questions and requests for additional information and BlackRock responded to these requests with additional written information in advance of the May 21-22, 2009 Board meeting.

At an in-person meeting held on May 21-22, 2009, the Board Members present at the meeting, including the Independent Board Members present at the meeting, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the Fund with respect to each Portfolio and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the Sub-Advisor with respect to each Portfolio, each for a one-year term ending June 30, 2010. The Board considered all factors it believed relevant with respect to each Portfolio, including, among other factors: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by BlackRock; (b) the investment performance of the Portfolio and BlackRock portfolio management; (c) the advisory fee and the cost of

 

    SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT    SEPTEMBER 30, 2009   63

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement

 

the services and profits to be realized by BlackRock and certain affiliates from the relationship with the Portfolio; (d) economies of scale; and (e) other factors.

The Board also considered other matters it deemed important to the approval process, such as payments made to BlackRock or its affiliates relating to the distribution of Portfolio shares, services related to the valuation and pricing of the Portfolios’ portfolio holdings, direct and indirect benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates and significant shareholders from their relationship with the Portfolios and advice from independent legal counsel with respect to the review process and materials submitted for the Board’s review. The Board noted the willingness of BlackRock personnel to engage in open, candid discussions with the Board. The Board did not identify any particular information as controlling, and each Board Member may have attributed different weights to the various items considered.

A. Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services: The Board, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed the nature, extent and quality of services provided by BlackRock, including the investment advisory services and the resulting performance of each Portfolio. Throughout the year, the Board compared each Portfolio’s performance to the performance of a comparable group of mutual funds, and the performance of a relevant benchmark, if any. The Board met with BlackRock’s senior management personnel responsible for investment operations, including the senior investment officers. The Board also reviewed the materials provided by each Portfolio’s portfolio management team discussing Portfolio performance and the Portfolio’s investment objective, strategies and outlook.

The Board considered, among other factors, the number, education and experience of BlackRock’s investment personnel generally and each Portfolio’s portfolio management team, investments by portfolio managers in the funds they manage, BlackRock’s portfolio trading capabilities, BlackRock’s use of technology, BlackRock’s commitment to compliance and BlackRock’s approach to training and retaining portfolio managers and other research, advisory and management personnel. The Board also reviewed a general description of BlackRock’s compensation structure with respect to each Portfolio’s portfolio management team and BlackRock’s ability to attract and retain high-quality talent.

In addition to advisory services, the Board considered the quality of the administrative and non-investment advisory services provided to each Portfolio. BlackRock and its affiliates and significant shareholders provide the Portfolios with certain administrative, transfer agency, shareholder and other services (in addition to any such services provided to the Portfolios by third parties) and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the operations of the Portfolios. In addition to investment advisory services, BlackRock and its affiliates provide the Portfolios with other services, including (i) preparing disclosure documents, such as the prospectus, the statement of additional information and periodic shareholder reports; (ii) assisting with daily accounting and pricing; (iii) overseeing and coordinating the activities of other service providers; (iv) organizing Board meetings and preparing the materials for such Board meetings; (v) providing legal and compliance support; and (vi) performing other administrative functions necessary for the operation of the Fund, such as tax reporting, fulfilling regulatory filing requirements, and call center services. The Board reviewed the structure and duties of BlackRock’s fund administration, accounting, legal and compliance departments and considered BlackRock’s policies and procedures for assuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

B. The Investment Performance of the Portfolios and BlackRock: The Board, including the Independent Board Members, also reviewed and considered the performance history of each Portfolio. In preparation for the April 16, 2009 meeting, the Board was provided with reports, independently prepared by Lipper, which included a comprehensive analysis of each Portfolio’s performance. The Board also reviewed a narrative and statistical analysis of the Lipper data that was prepared by BlackRock, which analyzed various factors that affect Lipper’s rankings. In connection with its review, the Board received and reviewed information regarding the investment performance of each Portfolio as compared to a representative group of similar funds as determined by Lipper and to all funds in the Portfolio’s applicable Lipper category and, as pertinent, customized peer group selected by BlackRock. The Board was provided with a description of the methodology used by Lipper to select peer funds. The Board regularly reviews the performance of each Portfolio throughout the year. The Board attaches more importance to performance over relatively long periods of time, typically three to five years.

The Board noted that, in general, the Virginia Municipal Money Market Portfolio performed better than its Peers in that the Portfolio’s performance was at or above the median of its Customized Lipper Peer Group in each of the one-, three- and five-year periods reported.

The Board noted that, in general, the Money Market Portfolio performed better than its Peers in that the Portfolio’s performance was at or above the median of its Lipper Performance Universe in two of the one-, three-and five-year periods reported.

The Board noted that, in general, the New Jersey Municipal Money Market Portfolio and the Ohio Municipal Money Market Portfolio each underperformed its Peers in that the Portfolio’s performance was below the median of its Lipper Performance Universe in at least two of the one-, three- and five-year periods reported; however, the underperformance was within 5% of the respective Lipper Performance Universe median return for all of the periods during which the Portfolio underperformed.

The Board noted that the performance of the Municipal Money Market Portfolio and the Pennsylvania Municipal Money Market Portfolio was below the median of the Portfolio’s Lipper Performance Universe for the one-, three- and five-year periods reported. The Board and BlackRock reviewed the reasons for each Portfolio’s underperformance during these periods compared with its Peers. The Board was informed that, among

 

64   SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT    SEPTEMBER 30, 2009    


Table of Contents

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement

 

other things, the underperformance of each Portfolio relative to its Peers is mainly attributable to the Portfolio’s holding a larger percentage of its assets in cash because of a scarcity of securities meeting the Portfolio’s quality standards. The decision to keep a higher percentage of the Portfolio’s assets in cash in light of the credit crisis was determined to be the prudent approach, despite its negative impact on yield. The Board and BlackRock discussed BlackRock’s commitment to providing the resources necessary to assist the portfolio managers and to improve each Portfolio’s performance.

The Board noted that the performance of the North Carolina Municipal Money Market Portfolio was below the median of its Customized Lipper Peer Group for the one-, three- and five-year periods reported. The Board and BlackRock reviewed the reasons for the Portfolio’s underperformance during these periods compared with its Peers. The Board was informed that, among other things, the underperformance of the Portfolio relative to its Peers is mainly attributable to the Portfolio’s holding a larger percentage of its assets in cash because of a scarcity of securities meeting the Portfolio’s quality standards. The decision to keep a higher percentage of the Portfolio’s assets in cash in light of the credit crisis was determined to be the prudent approach, despite its negative impact on yield. The Board and BlackRock discussed BlackRock’s commitment to providing the resources necessary to assist the portfolio managers and to improve the Portfolio’s performance.

The Board noted that the performance of the U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio was below the median of its Lipper Performance Universe for the one- and five-year periods reported. The Board and BlackRock reviewed the reasons for the Portfolio’s underperformance during these periods compared with its Peers. The Board was informed that, among other things, the Portfolio underperformed the median of its Lipper Performance Universe by 0.11% and 0.04% for the one- and five-year periods reported, respectively. The Board also noted that the Portfolio’s performance for the three-year period reported was above the median for the Lipper Performance Universe. The Board and BlackRock discussed BlackRock’s commitment to providing the resources necessary to assist the portfolio managers and to improve the Portfolio’s performance.

C. Consideration of the Advisory Fees and the Cost of the Services and Profits to be Realized by BlackRock and its Affiliates from their Relationship with the Portfolios: The Board, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed each Portfolio’s contractual advisory fee rates compared with the other funds in its Lipper category. It also compared each Portfolio’s total expenses, as well as actual management fees, to those of other comparable funds. The Board considered the services provided and the fees charged by BlackRock to other types of clients with similar investment mandates, including separately managed institutional accounts.

The Board received and reviewed statements relating to BlackRock’s financial condition and profitability with respect to the services it provided the Portfolios. The Board was also provided with a profitability analysis that detailed the revenues earned and the expenses incurred by BlackRock for services provided to the Portfolios. The Board reviewed BlackRock’s profitability with respect to each Portfolio and other funds the Board currently oversees for the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to available aggregate profitability data provided for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Board reviewed BlackRock’s profitability with respect to other fund complexes managed by the Manager and/or its affiliates. The Board reviewed BlackRock’s assumptions and methodology of allocating expenses in the profitability analysis, noting the inherent limitations in allocating costs among various advisory products. The Board recognized that profitability may be affected by numerous factors including, among other things, fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the Manager, the types of funds managed, expense allocations and business mix, and therefore comparability of profitability is somewhat limited.

The Board noted that, in general, individual fund or product line profitability of other advisors is not publicly available. Nevertheless, to the extent such information is available, the Board considered BlackRock’s operating margin, in general, compared to the operating margin for leading investment management firms whose operations include advising open-end funds, among other product types. The comparison indicated that operating margins for BlackRock with respect to its registered funds are generally consistent with margins earned by similarly situated publicly traded competitors. In addition, the Board considered, among other things, certain third party data comparing BlackRock’s operating margin with that of other publicly-traded asset management firms, which concluded that larger asset bases do not, in themselves, translate to higher profit margins.

In addition, the Board considered the cost of the services provided to the Portfolios by BlackRock, and BlackRock’s and its affiliates’ profits relating to the management and distribution of the Portfolios and the other funds advised by BlackRock and its affiliates. As part of its analysis, the Board reviewed BlackRock’s methodology in allocating its costs to the management of each Portfolio. The Board also considered whether BlackRock has the financial resources necessary to attract and retain high quality investment management personnel to perform its obligations under the Agreements and to continue to provide the high quality of services that is expected by the Board.

The Board noted that the contractual advisory fees of the New Jersey Municipal Money Market Portfolio, which do not take into account any expense reimbursement or fee waivers, were lower than or equal to the median contractual advisory fees paid by the Portfolio’s Peers.

The Board noted that although the contractual advisory fees of the Money Market Portfolio, the Municipal Money Market Portfolio, the North Carolina Municipal Money Market Portfolio, the Ohio Municipal Money Market Portfolio, the Pennsylvania Municipal Money Market Portfolio and the Virginia Municipal Money Market Portfolio were above the median of the Portfolio’s respective Peers, each Portfolio’s actual advisory fees were lower than or equal to the median of its Peers.

 

    SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT    SEPTEMBER 30, 2009   65


Table of Contents

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement (concluded)

 

The Board noted the contractual advisory fees of the U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio were above the median of its Peers.

The Board also noted that each Portfolio has an advisory fee arrangement that includes breakpoints that adjust the fee rate downward as the size of the Portfolio increases, thereby allowing shareholders the potential to participate in economies of scale. The Board noted that with respect to the New Jersey Municipal Money Market Portfolio, the North Carolina Municipal Money Market Portfolio, the Ohio Municipal Money Market Portfolio, the Pennsylvania Municipal Money Market Portfolio, the U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio and the Virginia Municipal Money Market Portfolio, BlackRock has contractually agreed to waive fees or reimburse expenses in order to limit the Portfolio’s total net expenses on a class basis, as applicable, and that with respect to the Money Market Portfolio and the Municipal Money Market Portfolio, BlackRock has contractually and/or voluntarily agreed to waive fees or reimburse expenses in order to limit the Portfolio’s total net expenses on a class basis, as applicable.

D. Economies of Scale: The Board, including the Independent Board Members, considered the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as the assets of the Portfolios increase and whether there should be changes in the advisory fee rate or structure in order to enable the Portfolios to participate in these economies of scale, for example through the use of revised breakpoints in the advisory fee based upon the assets of the Portfolios. The Board considered that the funds in the BlackRock fund complex share some common resources and, as a result, an increase in the overall size of the complex could permit each fund to incur lower expenses than it would otherwise as a stand-alone entity. The Board also considered BlackRock’s overall operations and its efforts to expand the scale of, and improve the quality of, its operations.

E. Other Factors: The Board also took into account other ancillary or “fall-out” benefits that BlackRock or its affiliates and significant shareholders may derive from its relationship with the Portfolios, both tangible and intangible, such as BlackRock’s ability to leverage its investment professionals who manage other portfolios, an increase in BlackRock’s profile in the investment advisory community, and the engagement of BlackRock’s affiliates and significant shareholders as service providers to the Portfolios, including for administrative, transfer agency and distribution services. The Board also noted that BlackRock may use third party research obtained by soft dollars generated by certain mutual fund transactions to assist itself in managing all or a number of its other client accounts.

In connection with their consideration of the Agreements, the Board also received information regarding BlackRock’s brokerage and soft dollar practices. The Board received reports from BlackRock which included information on brokerage commissions and trade execution practices throughout the year.

Conclusion

The Board Members present at the meeting, including the Independent Board Members present at the meeting, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the Fund with respect to each Portfolio for a one-year term ending June 30, 2010 and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the Sub-Advisor with respect to each Portfolio for a one-year term ending June 30, 2010. Based upon their evaluation of all these factors in their totality, the Board Members present at the meeting, including the Independent Board Members present at the meeting, were satisfied that the terms of the Agreements were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of the Portfolios and their shareholders. In arriving at a decision to approve the Agreements, the Board did not identify any single factor or group of factors as all-important or controlling, but considered all factors together, and different Board Members may have attributed different weights to the various factors considered. The Independent Board Members were also assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel in making this determination. The contractual fee arrangements for each Portfolio reflect the results of several years of review by the Board Members and predecessor Board Members, and discussions between such Board Members (and predecessor Board Members) and BlackRock. Certain aspects of the arrangements may be the subject of more attention in some years than in others, and the Board Members’ conclusions may be based in part on their consideration of these arrangements in prior years.

This report is transmitted to shareholders only. It is not authorized for use as an offer of sale or a solicitation of an offer to buy shares of the Portfolios unless accompanied or preceded by the Portfolios’ current prospectus. An investment in a Portfolio is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Portfolios seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in a Portfolio. Performance data quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Total return information assumes reinvestment of all distributions. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For current month-end performance information, call (800) 441-7762. The Portfolios’ current 7-day yield more closely reflects the current earnings of a Portfolio than the total returns quoted. Statements and other information herein are as dated and are subject to change.
