TURNER FUNDS 2010 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 1
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
To our shareholders
In the six months ended March 31, 2010, the stock market reflected nothing so much as a mirror image of the prolonged bear market of 2007-2009, an investment black hole that pulverized stock-market prices by more than 50%.
In contrast, since reaching a bottom on March 9, 2009, the market, as represented by the S&P 500 Index, has driven stock prices higher with a similar relentless consistency. During that time, the S&P 500 recorded 10 positive monthly returns and didn't suffer even the typical "correction" (a temporary pullback of 10% or more). For the most recent six-month period, the S&P 500 Index gained 11.75%, the equivalent of more than a full year's results by historical standards.
Of late it's been a strong, silent bull market, with stocks registering more moderate gains following outsized returns early on. The quiet upward course of the market is evident in the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index, which measures how much disruption investors expect in the market; the index fell below 17 in mid-March — in sharp relief to readings as high as 80 during the financial crisis in 2008. Back then, a global depression seemed a distinct possibility, due to what The Wall Street Journal called the Four Horsemen of the Financial Apocalypse: Derivatives, Leverage, Greed, and Fraud.
Smaller stocks rebound
A distinguishing characteristic of the market since it turned bullish is that smaller, more speculative stocks with low price/book ratios have performed best. Those stocks had been beaten up so much during the bear market that they were priced as if investors fully expected their issuers to go out of business. But like a child on a trampoline, they bounced back energetically. In the past six months alone, the small-cap Russell 2000 Value Index soared 14.01%; the Russell Midcap Value Index, 15.32%.
In effect, these smaller stocks gained the most in the past six months for no better reason than they had gained the most in the previous six months. According to our Quantitative Investing Team, price momentum was the performance factor that worked best in the past six months. Other, more fundamentally oriented factors such as earnings, return on equity, and market-share leadership were of lesser importance. To us, it's an example of how Mr. Market can sometimes be perverse. For instance, the stocks of companies that were ranked by Morningstar as having no "moat," or no long-term competitive advantage, outperformed those with a wid e or narrow moat. And Bank of America Merrill Lynch found that in the first quarter, the stocks with the best return on equity rose 7.4%, while the stocks with the worst return on equity gained 10.1%. Just as in the bond market, where "junk" high-yield bonds outperformed, junk shares generally flourished in the stock market.
We attribute the outperformance of junk stocks to two catalysts: the Federal Reserve kept short-term interest rates near zero and the stock market rally was so exceptionally positive. As a result, momentum investors and short-term traders were emboldened to become much more tolerant of market risk and persist in doing what they had been doing — bidding up the price of low-quality stocks.
Low quality didn't help us
Although low quality may have benefited momentum investors and short-term traders, it didn't do nearly as much for our own mutual funds. Low quality is not our game. For our 13 U.S. growth, international-growth, core (a blend of growth and value), quantitative, and alternative funds, we focus on picking high-quality stocks for fundamental reasons. For instance, our growth and international funds emphasize the stocks of companies that we think can exceed Wall Street's earnings expectations. Our core funds emphasize stocks with business momentum, such as an improving rate of revenue growth, balance-sheet strength, and undervalued assets. Our quantitative funds select stocks according to the diverse factors in our model that have proven to be most predictive of outperformance in each market sector. And our alternative fund uses fundamental, quantitative, and technical analysis to select stocks for long positions that we think have high-return potential and stocks for short positions that we perceive as underperformers.
Inasmuch as our stock-selection process isn't geared to price momentum, our funds' performance was a mixed bag in the past six months. Six of our 13 funds outperformed at least one of their benchmarks: the Turner Emerging Growth Fund, the Turner New Enterprise Fund, the Turner Small Cap Growth Fund, the Turner International Core Growth Fund, the Turner Quantitative Broad Market Equity Fund, and the Turner Spectrum Fund.
The returns of all 13 funds were uniformly positive, ranging from 3.00% for the Turner Spectrum Fund to 15.39% for the Turner New Enterprise Fund. On an absolute numerical basis, results were generally good: 11 of the funds generated returns in excess of 10%. And as was the case for the market as a whole, the funds specializing in smaller stocks did best.

Fundamentals matter little
If anything surprised us about the market's behavior in the past six months, it was that fundamentals failed to matter more as the bull market progressed. But we believe to everything there is a season and buying the shares of high-quality companies is the surest way to build wealth in the stock market in the long run. We think the market's fascination with speculative, low-quality stocks will inevitably wane; historically, in previous bull markets, that fascination has lasted five to seven months, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
To us, this market resembles the market in 2003, when low quality also held sway. Back then, an improving economy and the prospect of rising interest rates prompted investors to begin gravitating towards quality. We think that quality should return to favor again in 2010 and enhance the relative performance of our funds. We think it's particularly significant that one consequence of the outperformance of low quality is that higher quality is now selling relatively cheaply, and we are taking advantage of the opportunity to add to our positions in good stocks.
On the occasion of the first birthday of this bull market, we take note that the past four bull markets have lasted an average of 55 months. In our judgment, the current bull could continue to rage for some time to come, as long as the economy continues to expand and earnings hold up, both of which we think are probable.
Economic signals rising
For one thing, in the U.S., the Index of Leading Economic Indicators rose for the 12th consecutive month in March. In the past six months, the index is up about 10% annualized, compared with an average gain of about 8% annualized during the previous six economic recoveries. Because of these and numerous other positive economic signs, we think the possibility of the U.S. economy suffering a double-dip recession seems remote. Indeed, we think economic growth may exceed expectations, which are still generally modest.
For another thing, earnings continue to grow strongly. Even the most conservative Wall Street analysts are projecting that companies in the S&P 500 Index will report growth in earnings per share in the double digits in both 2010 and 2011. In our view, as investors come to appreciate that companies' earnings power is for real, we think it could move the market higher. We envision this scenario: as earnings grow, companies could start hiring in earnest in the second or third quarter, and consumer confidence and spending could improve, leading to a virtuous circle for both earnings and the market.
Finally, the companies in the S&P 500 Index are sitting on a mountain of cash — a record $1.1 trillion, by our
TURNER FUNDS 2010 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 3
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (continued)
reckoning. We think that as time passes, they are likely to spend some of it on capital equipment, to the benefit of the economy. Capital spending is in fact rising after two years of underinvestment, when companies were on the defensive and conserving cash to weather the recession. Also, we think companies may spend some of their cash hoard on acquisitions, which could inject additional fuel into the market's engine.
Even so, we hasten to add that since this bull market has yet to endure a correction, it wouldn't be at all shocking if one occurred before the year's end. Since 1900, a correction has taken place about once a year on average.
How our funds are positioned
But on balance, we expect an increasingly high correlation between good stock returns and companies reporting above-average rates of earnings growth this year. In short, we expect a stock picker's market. In anticipation of that prospect, we've positioned our funds in this way:
Our eight U.S. and international growth funds, as always, hold shares that in our estimation offer the greatest prospective earnings power. Our growth funds continue to own three types of growth stocks. One, they hold classic growth stocks in industries like investment management, biotechnology, and wireless communications that we think have high-return potential for strong fundamental reasons. Two, they hold stocks of companies gaining market share in their businesses. And three, they hold cyclical stocks in industries such as metals, banking, business services, and chemicals that historically have tended to do well as the economy expands.
Our two core funds generally own stocks with above-average levels of cash on their issuers' balance sheets and low betas. The funds' sector weightings are being kept close to those of the indexes. We see little need to be overexposed to any of the sectors since their valuations are comparable; we think none of them offer enough of a price discount to merit placing special emphasis on them. Plus, we are finding appealing candidates for investment in all sectors.
Our two quantitative funds remain broadly diversified, with substantial weightings of growth factors in our model. That weighting is consistent with our view that 2010 may be a year in which above-average earnings, the hallmark of growth stocks, are a prime differentiator of performance among stocks. We expect banking stocks, among others, to do well, as banks stand to profit from a steep yield curve in making loans and from their improving balance sheets.
And our long/short fund, the Turner Spectrum Fund, composed of six long/short strategies managed by us, is emphasizing growth stocks with attractive PEG (price/earnings-to-earnings growth) ratios. The Spectrum Fund is invested mainly in U.S. stocks, which our fundamental analysis indicates have superior return potential to that of foreign stocks generally. The fund has a modest net long exposure (its percentage of long positions minus its percentage of short positions), of less than 19%, as of March 31.
We thank you for your vote of confidence in entrusting your wealth to us for investment. As of March 31, the wealth in our funds totaled more than $2.9 billion, which included not only your money but the money of mine and other portfolio managers here as well. We pledge to continue exerting our best efforts to produce good performance for the Turner funds that you and we own. And we look forward to reporting to you how that performance actually played out over the next six months. In the months ahead, we think the market, which recently has been the looking-glass equivalent of the bear market that preceded it, may reward more fully the higher quality stocks we prize.

Manager's discussion and analysis
In its first full six months of operation, the Turner Spectrum Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TSPEX) produced a 3.00% gain. That return underperformed the S&P 500 Index and the Lipper Long/Short Equity Funds Classification but outperformed the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Employing long and short positions, the fund seeks not necessarily to always beat the stock market, but rather to produce consistently positive returns and manage risk by protecting capital in market downturns.
Overall, the health-care and financial-services sectors, in their long and short positions, contributed the most extra return to the fund's results. In those two sectors, health-care products and investment-management shares were among the winners. Detracting most from long and short results were holdings in the producer-durables sector. In that sector, semiconductor-capital-equipment shares performed unsatisfactorily. The fund kept a modest net long exposure.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Weak results in three major sectors impaired the performance of the Turner Concentrated Growth Fund (TTOPX) in the six-month period ended March 31. The fund gained 7.45%, underperforming the benchmark Russell 1000 Growth Index's 12.96% return by 5.51 percentage points.
About 61% of the fund's holdings were concentrated in three sectors, financials, industrials, and information technology, whose returns detracted most from performance. In those sectors, investment-management, semiconductor-capital-equipment, telecommunications, and semiconductor stocks lagged. Four of seven sector positions added extra return, with the consumer-discretionary sector adding the most return. In that sector, gaming, retailing, and Internet shares fared best.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Underperformance in three sectors offset some good stock selection in other sectors for the Turner Core Growth Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TTMEX) in the six-month period ended March 31. The net result: the fund gained 10.50%, underperforming the Russell 1000 Growth Index by 2.46 percentage points.
A 27% position in the energy, health-care, and industrials sectors were the prime detractors from performance. Energy-services, biotechnology, medical-device, and semiconductor-capital-equipment shares were particularly weak. On the plus side, five of the fund's 10 sector positions beat their index sectors. Materials, utilities, and consumer-staples stocks, which amounted to a 15% weighting, boosted the fund's results the most. Winners here included metals, mining, telecommunications, supermarket, and drugstore-chain stocks.
* These figures represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Ample outperformance in some key sectors enabled the Turner Emerging Growth Fund, Investor Class Shares (TMCGX) to produce favorable results in the six-month period ended March 31. The fund rose 14.00%, a return that beat its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index, by 1.93 percentage points.
Four of the fund's nine sector positions, which represented 45% of all holdings, outperformed their corresponding index sectors in health care, materials, industrials, and financials by more than nine percentage points. In those sectors, contract-research, biotechnology, health-services, specialty-chemicals, heavy-equipment, and financial-consulting holdings did relatively well. The primary detractor from results was the fund's consumer-discretionary position, a 15% weighting. Underperformers here included apparel, airline, and business-consulting stocks.

Information-technology and health-care stocks, a 53% weighting, were the greatest detriment to performance; semiconductor, wireless-communications, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology stocks were significant laggards.

Hotel, gaming, metals, regional-banking, and diversified financial stocks were notable contributors. A 23% position in health-care and industrials stocks, especially in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and semiconductor-capital-equipment industries, was the prime detractor from performance.

Good stock selection and strong performance by small-cap stocks propelled the Turner Small Cap Growth Fund (TSCEX) to a 13.31% return in the six-month period ended March 31. The fund's results represented a margin of outperformance of 1.24 percentage points over the index, the Russell 2000 Growth Index, which gained 12.07%.
Six of the fund's nine sector positions beat their index-sector counterparts. The fund's health-care, materials, and energy stocks, a 29% weighting, performed best in relative terms. Winners included pharmaceutical, biotechnology, contract-research, mining, and energy-services stocks. A 26% position in information-technology stocks, particularly financial-technology, semiconductor, and communications-systems shares, were a drag on performance.

Manager's discussion and analysis
In the six-month period ended March 31, the Turner Quantitative Broad Market Equity Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TBMEX) rose 12.92%. That return was good enough to outdistance the Russell 3000 Index by 0.73 percentage point.
The fund's proprietary quantitative model selected stocks that did well in relative terms in six of the 10 market sectors. Energy, materials, and consumer-staples stocks, a 28% weighting, enhanced performance to the greatest degree. Winners here included oil/gas-production, steel, specialty-chemicals, drugstore-chain, food-processing, and beverage shares. Hurting results the most were financials and consumer-discretionary stocks, which represented 28% of the portfolio; major-bank, investment-management, e-commerce, hotel, and automotive stocks were among the detractors.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Capitalizing on the bullish direction of the international stock market in the six months ended March 31, the Turner International Core Growth Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TICGX) gained 10.96%. The fund outperformed the MSCI World Growth ex-U.S. Index's 6.29% gain by 4.67 percentage points.
The key to the fund's outperformance was good stock selection; seven of its 10 sector positions beat their corresponding index sectors. Adding the most value were holdings in the consumer-discretionary and utilities sectors, which accounted for a 16% weighting. Consumer-electronics, Internet, hotel, and telecommunications stocks performed best. Conversely, information-technology shares, which constituted 14% of the portfolio, impaired performance the most. Financial-technology, semiconductor, and communications-network stocks produced losses.

The Turner Midcap Equity Fund, Investor Class Shares (TMCFX) recorded a 14.26% gain in the six-month period ended March 31. That return underperformed its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Index, by 0.84 percentage point.
Good relative returns in the materials and energy sectors, a 16% weighting, added the most value to the fund's results. Mining, specialty-metals, energy-services, and oil/gas-exploration stocks were notable contributors. Altogether, four of the fund's 10 sector positions outperformed their corresponding index sectors. In general, value holdings produced returns superior to those of growth holdings. A 19% position in information-technology and utilities stocks, especially in the semiconductor, electric-utility, and telecommunications industries, detracted most from the fund's results.
* These figures represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.

Manager's discussion and analysis
In a favorable market for small-cap stocks, the Turner Small Cap Equity Fund, Investor Class Shares (TSEIX) rose 10.69% in the six-month period ended March 31. However, that return trailed the Russell 2000 Index's 13.07% gain by 2.38 percentage points.
The fund is invested in both growth and value stocks, and its value holdings generally outperformed growth holdings during the period. Four of the fund's 10 sector positions beat their corresponding index sectors. The greatest degree of outperformance was supplied by materials and energy stocks, which represented 12% of the portfolio. Winners included metals, mining, oil/gas-production, and energy-services shares. An 18% position in information-technology and utilities stocks hurt results the most; semiconductor, electric-utility, and telecommunications holdings performed poorly.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Notes to financial statements
March 31, 2010
1. Organization:
Turner Funds (the "Trust"), a Massachusetts business trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company with thirteen active portfolios as of March 31, 2010. The financial statements included herein are those of the Turner Spectrum Fund (the "Spectrum Fund"), Turner Concentrated Growth Fund (the "Concentrated Growth Fund"), the Turner Core Growth Fund (the "Core Growth Fund"), the Turner Emerging Growth Fund (the "Emerging Growth Fund"), the Turner Large Cap Growth Fund (the "Large Cap Growth Fund"), the Turner Midcap Growth Fund (the "Midcap Growth Fund"), the Turner New Enterprise Fund (the "New Enterprise Fund"), Turner Small Cap Growth Fund (the "Small Cap Growth Fund"), the Turner Quantitative Broad Market Equity Fund (the "Quantitative Broad Market Equity Fund"), the Turner Quantitative Large Cap Value Fund (the "Quantitative Large Cap Value Fund"), the T urner International Core Growth Fund (the "International Core Growth Fund"), the Turner Midcap Equity Fund (the "Midcap Equity Fund"), and the Turner Small Cap Equity Fund (the "Small Cap Equity Fund"), each a "Fund" and collectively the "Funds."
Each Fund is registered as a diversified portfolio of the Trust with the exception of the Large Cap Growth Fund and the Concentrated Growth Fund, each of which are non-diversified.
The Funds are registered to offer different classes of shares: Institutional Class Shares, Investor Class Shares, Retirement Class Shares, Class C Shares, or a combination of the four. The assets of each Fund are segregated, and a shareholder's interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. The Funds' prospectuses provide a description of each Fund's investment objectives, policies, and strategies along with information on the classes of shares currently being offered.
The Emerging Growth, Small Cap Growth and Small Cap Equity Funds were closed to new investors on March 7, 2000, July 31, 2004 and May 1, 2005, respectively. Effective March 1, 2008 and August 24, 2009, the Small Cap Equity Fund and Small Cap Growth Fund were reopened to new investors and existing shareholders, respectively.
2. Significant accounting policies:
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.
Use of estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security valuation—Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ) are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded, or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent quoted bid price for long positions and the most recent quoted ask price for short positions. For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates. Prices for most securities held in the Funds are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. If a security price cannot be obtained from an independent, third-party pricing agent, the Funds seek to obtain a bid price from at least one independent broker.
Securities for which market prices are not "readily available" are valued in accordance with Fair Value Procedures established by the Board of Trustees (the "Board"). The Funds' Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Committee (the "Committee") designated by the Board. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been delisted from a national exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; or trading of the security is subject to local government-imposed restrictions. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committ ee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.
For securities that principally trade on a foreign market or exchange, a significant gap in time can exist between the time of a particular security's last trade and the time at which a Fund calculates its net asset value. The closing prices of such securities may no longer reflect their market value at the time the Fund calculates net asset value if an event that could materially affect the value of those securities (a "Significant Event") has occurred between the time of the security's last close and the time that the Fund calculates net asset value. A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. If the Adviser of a Fund becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with
72 TURNER FUNDS 2010 SEMIANNUAL REPORT
respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which the Fund calculates net asset value, it may request that a Committee meeting be called. In addition, the Fund's Administrator monitors price movements among certain selected indices, securities and/or baskets of securities that may be an indicator that the closing prices received earlier from foreign exchanges or markets may not reflect market value at the time the Fund calculates net asset value. If price movements in a monitored index or security exceed levels established by the Administrator and approved by the Committee, the Administrator notifies the Adviser for any Fund holding the relevant securities that such limits have been exceeded. In such event, the Adviser makes the determination whether a Committee meeting should be called based on the informat ion provided.
The International Core Growth Fund and Spectrum Fund use Interactive Data Pricing and Reference Data, Inc. (formerly FT Interactive Data Corp.) ("Interactive Data") as a third party fair valuation vendor. Interactive Data provides a fair value for foreign securities in the International Core Growth Fund and Spectrum Fund based on certain factors and methodologies (involving, generally, tracking valuation correlations between the U.S. market and each non-U.S. security) applied by Interactive Data in the event that there is a movement in the U.S. market that exceeds a specific threshold established by the Committee. The Committee establishes a "confidence interval" which is used to determine the level of correlation between the value of a foreign security and movements in the U.S. market before a particular security is fair valued when the threshold is exceeded. In the event that the threshold established by the Committee is excee ded on a specific day, the International Core Growth Fund and Spectrum Fund value their non-U.S. securities that exceed the applicable "confidence interval" based upon the fair values provided by Interactive Data. In such event, it is not necessary to hold a Committee meeting. In the event that the Adviser believes that the fair values provided by Interactive Data are not reliable, the Adviser contacts the Funds' Administrator and may request that a meeting of the Committee be held.
If a local market in which the Funds own securities is closed for one or more days or a portion of a day, the Funds shall value all securities held in that corresponding currency based on the fair value prices provided by Interactive Data using the predetermined confidence interval discussed above.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that a fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market. The guidance established a three-tier heirarchy to maximize the use of the observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of the fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below:
Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The valuation techniques used by the Funds to measure fair value in accordance with the guidance, during the six months ended March 31, 2010 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs. For the six months ended March 31, 2010, there have been no significant changes to the Funds' fair valuation methodologies. Fair value measurement classifications are summarized in each Fund's Schedule of investments, Schedule of securities sold short or Schedule of open options written.
Security transactions and related income—Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sales of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold during the respective holding period.
Securities sold short—As consistent with each Fund's investment objectives, the Funds may engage in short sales. Short sales are transactions under which a Fund sells a security it does not own. To complete such a transaction, the Fund must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. The Fund is then obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing the
TURNER FUNDS 2010 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 73
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
security at the market price at the time of the replacement. The price at such time may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by the Fund. Until the security is replaced, the Fund is required to pay the lender amounts equal to any dividends that accrue during the period of the loan. Dividends are shown as an expense for financial reporting purposes. To borrow the security, the Fund also may be required to pay a fee, which is shown as an expense for financial reporting purposes. The proceeds of the short sale are retained by the broker, to the extent necessary to meet margin requirements, until the short position is closed out. A gain, limited to the price at which the Fund sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in size, will be recognized upon the close of a short sale.
Until a Fund closes its short position or replaces the borrowed security, the Fund will: (a) maintain a segregated account containing cash or liquid securities at such a level that (i) the amount deposited in the account plus the amount deposited with the broker as collateral will equal the current value of the security sold short; and (ii) the amount deposited in the segregated account plus the amount deposited with the broker as collateral will not be less than the market value of the security at the time the security was sold short, or (b) otherwise cover the Fund's short positions.
Option transactions—The Funds may write covered call options as a means of increasing the yield on their portfolios and as a means of providing limited protection against decreases in their market value. The Funds may purchase put and call options to protect against a decline in the market value of the securities in their portfolio or to anticipate an increase in the market value of securities that the Funds may seek to purchase in the future. A put option gives the purchaser of the option the right to sell, and the writer of the option the obligation to buy, the underlying security at any time during the option period. A call option gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy, and the writer of the option the obligation to sell, the underlying security at any time during the option period. The premium paid to the writer is the considerati on for undertaking the obligations under the option contract. The initial purchase (sale) of an option contract is an "opening transaction." In order to close out an option position, the Fund may enter into a "closing transaction," which is simply the sale (purchase) of an option contract on the same security with the same exercise price and expiration date as the option contract originally opened. If the Fund is unable to effect a closing purchase transaction with respect to an option it has written, it will not be able to sell the underlying security until the option expires or the Fund delivers the security upon exercise. When the Fund writes (sells) an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. Option contracts are valued at the last quoted sales price. If there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, long positions are valued at the most recent bid price, and short positions are valued at the most recent ask price. When an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain or loss if the cost of the closing purchase transaction differs from the premium received when the option was sold without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. When an option is exercised, the premium originally received decreases the cost basis of the security (or increases the proceeds on a sale of the security). Realized and unrealized gains and losses on written option transactions are shown on the Statement of Operations as Net realized gain on written option contracts and Net change in unrealized appreciation on written option contracts, respectively. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on purchased options for the six months ended Marc h 31, 2010 of $(467,513) and $(28,252), respectively are shown on the Statement of Operations as net realized gain (loss) from securities sold and net change in unrealized appreciation on investments, respectively.
Foreign currency translation—The books and records of the International Core Growth Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. The International Core Growth Fund does not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments in the Statements of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains o r losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the International Core Growth Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid.
Expenses—Expenses that are specifically attributed to one of the Funds are charged to that Fund. Certain other expenses of the Funds are prorated among the Funds on the basis of relative daily net assets. Other common expenses of the Trust are allocated among the Funds on the basis of relative daily net assets.
Classes—Class specific expenses are borne by that class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized/unrealized gains and losses are allocated to the respective classes on the basis of the relative daily net assets.
74 TURNER FUNDS 2010 SEMIANNUAL REPORT
Dividends and distributions—The Funds declare and distribute net investment income, if any, annually, as a dividend to shareholders. Any net realized capital gains on sales of securities for all Funds are distributed to shareholders at least annually.
3. Transactions with affiliates:
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are also officers or employees of Turner Investment Partners, Inc. ("Turner") or SEI Global Funds Services ("SEI"), the Trust's sub-administrator. With the exception of the Trust's Chief Compliance Officer, such officers are paid no fees by the Trust for serving as officers and trustees of the Trust.
SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the "Distributor") provides distribution services to the Funds under a Distribution Agreement.
4. Administration, shareholder servicing, distribution and transfer agent agreements:
Turner provides administrative services to the Funds under Administration Agreements with the Trust. For its services, Turner receives an annual fee of 0.15% of the aggregate average daily net assets of the Trust up to $2 billion and 0.12% of the aggregate average daily net assets of the Trust over $2 billion. Under a separate Sub-Administration Agreement between Turner and SEI, SEI provides sub-administrative services to the Trust. For the six months ended March 31, 2010, SEI was paid $543,507 by Turner.
The Funds have adopted a Distribution Plan for Retirement Class Shares and Class C Shares (the "Distribution Plan") under which firms, including the Distributor, that provide distribution services may receive compensation. Under the Distribution Plan, which was adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Distributor is entitled to receive aggregate fees for distribution services not exceeding seventy-five basis points (0.75%) of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Retirement Class or Class C Shares that are subject to the arrangement in return for providing a broad range of distribution services. Currently, the Retirement Class Shares of the Midcap Growth Fund pay the Distributor twenty-five basis points (0.25%) and the Class C Shares of the Spectrum Fund pay the Distributor seventy-five basis points (0.75%) in distribution fees.
The Funds have also adopted Shareholder Services Plans (the "Shareholder Services Plans"). Under the Shareholder Services Plans, service providers are entitled to receive aggregate fees for shareholder services not exceeding twenty-five basis points (0.25%) of each Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Investor Class and Retirement Class Shares that are subject to the arrangement in return for providing shareholder services. Currently, Investor Class Shares of each Fund and Retirement Class Shares of the Midcap Growth Fund pay 0.25% in shareholder servicing fees.
DST Systems, Inc. serves as the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for the Funds under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust.
The Funds may earn cash management credits which can be used to offset transfer agent expenses. During the six months ended March 31, 2010, each Fund earned less than $500 of cash management credits to offset transfer agent expenses and therefore these amounts do not appear on the Statement of Operations. The following represents the unrounded cash management credits earned by each Fund.

5. Investment advisory agreement:
The Trust and Turner are parties to an Investment Advisory Agreement dated April 28, 1996 under which Turner receives a fee that is calculated daily and paid monthly, based on the average daily net assets of certain Funds. Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement dated November 17, 2006, Turner Investment Management LLC, an affiliate of Turner, serves as the investment adviser for the Small Cap Equity Fund and Midcap Equity Fund.
For their services, Turner and Turner Investment Management LLC receive annual fees, which are calculated daily and paid monthly, based on average daily net assets. Turner and Turner Investment Management LLC have contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of their fees and to reimburse expenses in order to limit operating expenses to a specified percentage of the average daily net assets of each Fund, except the Concentrated Growth Fund and New Enterprise Fund, on an annualized basis through certain dates as disclosed in the following table:

For the remaining Funds, the Concentrated Growth Fund and the New Enterprise Fund, the advisory fee is comprised of a base fee and a performance adjustment that increases or decreases the total fee depending upon the performance of the Fund relative to the Fund's performance benchmark. The Fund's base fee (1.10% for both the Concentrated Growth Fund and the New Enterprise Fund) is accrued daily and paid monthly, based on the Fund's average net assets during the current month.
The performance adjustment is calculated and paid monthly by comparing the Fund's performance to that of the Fund's performance benchmark over the current month plus the previous 11 months (the "performance period"). The annual performance adjustment rate is multiplied by the average net assets of the Fund over the entire performance period, which is then multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the month and the denominator of which is 365 (366 in leap years). The resulting amount is then added to (in the case of overperformance) or subtracted from (in the case of underperformance) the Fund's base fee.
In cases where the advisory fee is comprised of a base fee and a performance adjustment, Turner has voluntarily agreed to waive all or a portion of their fees and to reimburse expenses in order to keep such Fund's "other expenses" (excluding distribution fees) from exceeding a specified percentage of the average daily net assets of the Fund on an annualized basis. Accordingly, the base advisory fee, annual adjustment rate, over/under performance relative to the benchmark threshold, and other expense cap are as follows:
Base advisory fee | Annual adjustment rate | Benchmark threshold(1) | Other expenses cap | ||||||||||||||||
Concentrated Growth Fund | 1.10 | % | +/-0.40% | +/-2.50% | 0.25 | % | |||||||||||||
New Enterprise Fund | 1.10 | +/-0.40 | +/-2.50 | 0.25 |
(1) See the Fund's Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for more information regarding each Fund's performance benchmark.
During the six months ended March 31, 2010, the Funds' advisory fees, before waivers, were adjusted in accordance with the policy described above:
Base adviser fee | Performance adjustment | Net adviser fee before waivers | |||||||||||||
Concentrated Growth Fund | $ | 220,502 | $ | 55,694 | $ | 276,196 | |||||||||
New Enterprise Fund | 143,034 | 29,896 | 172,930 |
6. Redemption fees:
Sales or exchanges out of the Core Growth Fund, New Enterprise Fund, Quantitative Large Cap Value Fund, and the Small Cap Equity Fund within 90 days of purchase are not currently subject to a redemption fee of 2.00%, but may be in the future. The Funds will provide notice to shareholders before they implement the redemption fee.
7. Contingent deferred sales charge (Turner Spectrum Fund, Class C Shares):
A 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") will be deducted with respect to the Spectrum Fund, Class C Shares, redeemed within 12 months of purchase. The CDSC will be based on the lower of the original purchase price or the value of the Class C Shares redeemed. The CDSC may be waived for certain investors, as described in the Spectrum Fund's prospectus.
8. Investment transactions:
The cost of security purchases and the proceeds from security sales, other than short-term investments, for the six months ended March 31, 2010 were as follows (000):

9. Federal tax policies and information:
Each of the Funds is classified as a separate taxable entity for Federal income tax purposes. Each of the Funds intends to continue to qualify as a separate "regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code and make the requisite distributions to shareholders that will be sufficient to relieve it from Federal income tax and Federal excise tax. Therefore, no Federal tax provision is required.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. These differences are primarily due to wash sales, REIT adjustments and net operating losses. The character and timing of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains distributed during the fiscal year may differ from the year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the Funds. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate equity accounts in the period that the differences arise.
The tax character of dividends and distributions declared during the years ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 were as follows (000):
Ordinary income | Long-term capital gain | Total | |||||||||||||

Management has analyzed the Funds' tax position taken on Federal income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of March 31, 2010, no provision for income tax would be required in the Funds' financial statements. The Funds' Federal and State income and Federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue.
10. Concentrations/risks:
Certain Funds invest a high percentage of their assets in specific sectors of the market in order to achieve a potentially greater investment return. As a result, the Funds may be more susceptible to economic, political, and regulatory developments in a particular sector of the market, positive or negative, and may experience increased volatility on the Fund's net asset value and magnified effect on the total return.
The Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
11. Loans of portfolio securities:
The Funds may lend securities in their portfolio pursuant to a securities lending agreement ("Lending Agreement") with Morgan Stanley. Unless otherwise agreed, security loans, made pursuant to the Lending Agreement are required at all times to be secured by collateral equal to at least 100% of the market value of the securities loaned. Cash collateral received is invested in the BlackRock TempCash Fund, Institutional Shares, a money market

fund. All such investments are made at the risk of the Funds and, as such, the Funds are liable for investment losses. The Funds receive an annual fee for their participation in the Lending Agreement based on projected lending activity.
In the event of bankruptcy of the borrower, realization/ retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
12. Derivative contracts:

These transactions were completed pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board. These procedures are designed to minimize or eliminate any adverse tax implications to the Funds and its shareholders.
14. Subsequent events:
On February 19, 2010, the Board of Trustees determined to close and liquidate the Turner Midcap Equity Fund, effective on April 30, 2010. This decision was made after careful consideration of the Fund's asset size, strategic importance, current expenses and historical performance. In connection with the liquidation, the Fund discontinued accepting orders for the purchase of Fund shares or exchanges into the Fund from other Turner Funds after the close of business on April 1, 2010. On the close of business on April 30, 2010, the Fund distributed pro rata all of its assets in cash to its shareholders, and all outstanding shares were redeemed and cancelled.
The Trust has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, no adjustments were required to the financial statements as of March 31, 2010.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONSIDERATIONS IN APPROVING THE ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (Unaudited)
Board of Trustees considerations in approving the Advisory Agreements
On February 19, 2010, the Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees") of the Turner Funds (the "Funds or "Trust") held a meeting to decide whether to renew the advisory agreements (the "Advisory Agreements") with Turner Investment Partners, Inc. and Turner Investment Management, LLC (collectively, the "Adviser") for the upcoming year (and whether to approve the Advisory Agreement with respect to a new Fund, the Turner Global Opportunities Fund). In preparation for the meeting, the Board requested and reviewed a wide variety of information from the Adviser. The information described, among other things: the Adviser's business; its organizational structure, personnel and operations; advisory services; with respect to the existing Funds, the Funds' performance; compliance; advisory fees and expenses paid by the Funds for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009; and information on trading. At the meeting, representatives of the A dviser discussed, and answered Board members' questions about, among other things, a chart of advisory fees received by the Adviser for the various Funds; a schedule of the commissions paid to the Trust's top 10 brokers; a soft dollar commission usage report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009; the Adviser's Form ADVs; and an Adviser profitability report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009.
The Board, including all of the independent Trustees, considered (including, to the extent relevant, with respect to the Global Opportunities Fund), among other things: (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser; (2) the performance of the existing Funds over the past one, three, five and ten years, where applicable, versus each Fund's respective Morningstar category and peer group; (3) the contractual and actual compensation to be paid under the agreements as compared to the compensation paid to relevant Morningstar peer groups; (4) the expense ratios of the Funds, with expense waivers, as compared to expense ratios for relevant Morningstar peer groups; (5) the qualifications of the Adviser's personnel, portfolio management capabilities and investment methodologies; (6) the Adviser's operations, compliance program and policies; (7) the financial condition of the Adviser; (8) the cost of services provided by the Adviser and the Adviser's profitability from each existing Fund for the year ended September 30, 2009; (9) "fall-out" benefits to the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Funds; (10) the extent to which economies of scale are relevant given the Funds' current asset size and current asset growth potential; and (11) a comparison of the fees charged by the Adviser with fees charged by the Adviser to clients employing similar investment strategies, to the extent it deemed it relevant.
The independent Trustees, in executive session, reached the following conclusions, among others, regarding the Adviser and Advisory Agreements: the recent performance of the existing Funds was, in most cases, above the median; the advisory fees were generally competitive (more than half of the existing Funds' advisory fees were below the median); and the net total expense ratios of the Funds were generally competitive (in most cases the net total expense ratios were below the median). The independent Trustees also concluded that: they were satisfied with the quality of services provided by the Adviser in advising the existing Funds; the profits earned by the Adviser seemed reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each existing Fund; and that each Fund was not large enough to attain significant economies of scale. With respect to the Global Opportunities Fund, the Trustees considered, amon g other things, the viability of the proposed strategy, the Adviser's experience, qualifications and track record in managing that strategy in a limited partnership vehicle and the length of that record as well as the quality of that performance. The Trustees also considered the proposed fees for the Global Opportunities Fund, as compared to those of its competitors, including both the net and gross total expense ratios. They discussed the need for establishment of prime brokerage arrangements for the Global Opportunities Fund with NewEdge USA, LLC and the Funds' custodian and considered the Adviser's experience in handling similar prime brokerage arrangements.
Based on the Board's deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Trustees, including all of the independent Trustees, unanimously: (a) agreed to renew the Advisory Agreements for another year (and approve the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Global Opportunities Fund) and (b) determined that the compensation payable by the Trust's Funds under the Advisory Agreements is fair and reasonable.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (Unaudited)
All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a mutual fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for portfolio management, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder services and other expenses. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns. Operating expenses such as these are deducted from a mutual fund's gross income and directly reduce its final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of a mutual fund's average net assets; this percentage is known as a mutual fund's expense ratio.
The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.
The table below and on the next page illustrates your Fund's costs in two ways:
• Actual Fund Return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that your Fund incurred over the period. The "Expenses Paid During Period" column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the "Ending Account Value" number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund's gross investment return.
You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under "Expenses Paid During Period."
• Hypothetical 5% Return. This section helps you compare your Fund's costs with those of other mutual funds. It provides information about hypothetical account values and expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio (column 3) and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. This section is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund's comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the "Expenses Paid During Period" column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other mutual funds.
Note: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund's actual return — the hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate your actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period.
