TURNER FUNDS 2011 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 1
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
To our shareholders
Managing a stock mutual fund is not unlike being a golfer who makes a breakthrough on the professional tour. When a rising star distinguishes himself from the pack, golfing pundits say things like, "Well, it's no wonder — look at that upright swing of his." But when he inevitably goes through a rough stretch of performance, the pundits tend to change their tune and observe, "You know, that upright swing of his was just bound to bring him down to earth at some point."
Like a standout professional golfer's swing, the stock-investment processes that we — and other money managers — use aren't perfect. They don't work well all the time. And they often are perceived as only being as good as the most recent performance they have wrought. But the best investment processes, like the best pro golfers, do prove to perform well on balance.
Funds outperform
In managing our own eight U.S. and global/international growth funds and four long/short funds, we employ an investment process that prizes earnings, based on the premise that earnings drive stock prices. Happily, the past six months ended March 31, 2011, happened to be one of those times when our growth-investment process — the investing equivalent of a distinctive and skilled golf swing — worked well. All twelve of our growth and long/short funds in operation throughout the entire six-month period outperformed one or more of their benchmarks. And all three new long/short funds that opened on February 7 — the Turner Market Neutral Fund, the Turner Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, and the Turner Titan Fund — also got off to good starts, beating one or more of their indexes.
Alas, our swing may not have seemed nearly as good when we most recently reported our funds' results, in the 2010 Turner Funds Annual Report last September. Then, during the 12-month period covered by that report, only four of our funds managed to beat par — their benchmarks.
Even so, we remained confident then that our growth-investment process was sound — that there was nothing fundamentally wrong with our swing. We reasoned that it would eventually lead to better performance.
And that's exactly what happened.
We stick with our processes
When our funds undergo spells of less-than-stellar performance, it's undoubtedly frustrating for shareholders — and for us as well, since our portfolio managers (and other Turner Investments employees) are shareholders in our funds, too.
But if there's anything we believe about stock investing, it's this: if you're convinced that your investment process is logical and well constructed, you shouldn't abandon it when it's generating adverse results. There's a natural tendency in investing to succumb to the temptation to alter an investment process out of desperation to do something — anything — to "cure" a spell of unfavorable performance. But that cure can be worse than the disease. In such a circumstance, we think it's prudent to stick with our investment processes and give them the time needed to pay off.
Of course, the key test for an investment process isn't how it performs in just six months, but its ability to generate outperformance and increase shareholders' wealth over time. And we say with a measure of pride that our funds have generally passed that test: all share classes in eight of the nine growth and long/short funds with records longer than 12 months have beaten one or more of their benchmarks since inception.
As for the investment results in the most recent six-month period, they were certainly helped by a strongly rising stock market. The market, as represented by the S&P 500 Index, gained 17.31%. In the wake of the 2000-2009 decade that we call the Terrible 2000s, the worst decade for stock investing in history, with an annualized 0.95% loss, the S&P 500 has been on a tear, rising almost 100% in the past two years — the second-fastest rise in history.
Bull corrected just once
On balance, this bull market has been uncommonly benign: it has suffered only one correction, i.e., a pullback of 10% or more. (Corrections have occurred about once annually since 1900.) The bull market's resilience has been such that it reminds us of those inflatable punching toys that snap back after being knocked down. With pop-up resilience, the market has kept its equilibrium after absorbing some solid whacks.
Those whacks included three crises late in the period. There was the nuclear crisis in Japan, when the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear station had a partial meltdown following an earthquake-induced tsunami, which resulted in a disruption of component supplies to manufacturers around the world. There was a new phase of the European debt crisis, when Portugal's government collapsed and pushed its credit rating lower, fanning winds of anxiety that a second major financial crisis in three years was in the offing. And there were civil uprisings in the Middle East, most notably in Libya and Egypt, which led to a decline in global oil production. But despite all these geo-economic downers, the market generated positive returns in all six months of the period.

Stocks look good to us
In our view, stocks have had a lot of things going for them in the past six months — and have a lot of things going for them in the near term that may help sustain this bull market. For example:
• Despite Japan's nuclear crisis, the European debt crisis, and unrest in the Middle East — plus the prospect that a key stock-market catalyst, the Federal Reserve's quantitative easing, may end soon — we estimate the global economy may grow more than 4% this year. That's more than a point higher than the global economy's average in the past two decades.
• Earnings for the S&P 500 Index companies should rise at least 10% this year and in the high single digits next year, in our estimation. And earnings for the first quarter should be the ninth in a series of better-than-expected quarterly results. We agree with this assessment of the state of earnings and the market by Bank of America Merrill Lynch: "Corporate profit growth remains solid, and valuations provide a significant cushion to absorb some worst-than-expected outcomes" for any crisis du jour that may surface.
• Mergers and acquisitions are picking up, with multi-billion-dollar deals announced recently in the telecommunications, semiconductor, e-commerce, and pharmaceutical industries, among others. The resources are certainly available for more M&A activity this year:
TURNER FUNDS 2011 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 3
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (continued)
Lazard, an investment bank, estimates that corporations and private-equity firms hold nearly $2.4 trillion in cash.
• We think corporate capital spending should increase at a double-digit rate in both 2011 and 2012, outpacing economic growth by a factor of three. That should especially help technology and industrial companies, in our analysis.
Allocations shifting
• We believe the stock market should benefit from a continuing shift in investors' asset allocations from low-yielding money markets and bonds to stocks. U.S. and international stock funds took in a net $13 billion of new investment in February (the latest month for which data are available), on the heels of a $19.7 billion inflow in January, Citigroup Global Markets reported. In contrast, stock funds suffered outflows of $37.6 billion in 2010 and $9.1 billion in 2009.
• Finally, we think the market should benefit in 2011 from the third year of the presidential-election cycle, which has invariably been an up year for stocks. Since 1955 the S&P 500 Index has advanced an average of 18% in the third year of the cycle, with no losing years.
And we think the longer term outlook for stocks is encouraging as well. Two years ago, when the Terrible 2000s were at their most terrible, we said in the 2009 Turner Funds Semiannual Report that stocks offered superior return potential to investors with long time horizons. We noted: "We refuse to believe that the next 10 years for stocks will be as painfully disappointing as the last 10 years. That's because we as investors above all believe in probabilities, in making decisions that are the most likely to produce a constructive result. And based on the probabilities, we think this decade of dreadful performance by stocks is likely to be the exception that proves the rule."
Better returns ahead?
We still stand behind that statement today. The five- and 10-year returns on stocks as of March 31 remain below the norm: the S&P 500 Index is up an annualized 2.62% for the past five years and an annualized 3.29% for the past 10 years. So stock investors could continue to profit from the statistical phenomenon known as reversion to the mean — the tendency for worse-than-average performance to be followed by periods of above-average performance, and vice versa.
In our judgment, the lackluster stock-market results of the most recent five- and 10-year periods may be followed by sparkling results over the next five or 10 years. According to WisdomTree Asset Management, after the worst 10-year periods of performance dating back to 1871, stocks generated much better returns in all subsequent 10-year periods, with a level of inflation-adjusted results 2.32 percentage points above that of all other 10-year periods.
In closing, as a result of the strong performance of our stock funds recently and our optimism about the stock market's course, we think our own upright golf swing is in the groove and should deliver more good scores.
If nothing else, the market's exceptional rally over the past two years is a testament to the perils of trying to time the market — the practice of investing in stocks when the market's prospects appear favorable and getting out of stocks when the prospects seem poor. Indeed, because you as a Turner Funds shareholder have in your hands this report, chances are you're not a market timer and thus have benefited from the gains our funds have produced in the past six months or longer.
To our way of thinking, putting time on your side — five years, 10 years, 20 years, whatever — improves the odds that you will reap the wealth-building rewards that stocks can uniquely provide. As we see it, putting time on your side going forward should be rewarded with additional good results in the stock market and our funds.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Generally good stock selection helped the Turner Market Neutral Fund, Investor Class Shares (TMNFX) to get off to a good start in its first two months of operation. After opening on February 7, the fund gained 3.30%, beating the S&P 500 Index, the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, and the Lipper Equity Market-Neutral Funds Average. The fund seeks to generate returns that have historically been associated with stocks, with relatively low volatility and a correlation unlike that of the broad market.
Six of the seven sectors in which the fund was invested contributed extra return. The information-technology and financials sectors added the most extra return. In those sectors, long and short positions in semiconductor, data-networking, wireless-communications, banking, insurance, and investment-management shares generated favorable relative results. The prime deflator of performance was the energy sector. In that sector, long and short positions in energy-production, natural-gas, and energy-services shares recorded the poorest relative performance.

Manager's discussion and analysis
The Turner Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Investor Class Shares (TMSFX) got off to a good start in its first two months of operation. Opening on February 7, the fund went on to gain 2.60% through March 31 to outperform the Lipper Long/Short Equity Funds Average and the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, but it slightly trailed the S&P 500 Healthcare Index. The fund seeks to capture alpha (the estimated amount of risk-adjusted excess return expected from an investment's fundamentals), reduce volatility, and preserve capital in declining markets.
In the fund's long and short positions, stocks in three health-care industries — biotechnology, specialty pharmaceutical, and health care services — produced the greatest extra return. The main detractors were long and short positions in the stocks of medical-device companies.

Manager's discussion and analysis
In the six-month period ended March 31, the Turner Spectrum Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TSPEX) produced a 9.24% gain. That return underperformed the S&P 500 Index but outperformed the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Lipper Long/Short Equity Funds Average. The fund seeks to generate returns that have historically been associated with stocks, with relatively low volatility and a correlation unlike that of the broad market.
Overall, seven of the 10 sectors in which the fund held positions contributed extra return, with the health-care and information-technology sectors making the greatest contributions. In those sectors, long and short positions in drug, medical-device, medical-distribution, data-networking, semiconductor, and wireless-communications shares generated the best relative results. Detracting most from long and short results were holdings in the energy sector. In that sector, energy-production, natural-gas, and energy-services shares performed unsatisfactorily. The fund kept a modest net long exposure, mainly in U.S. stocks.

Manager's discussion and analysis
In its first two months of operation, the Turner Titan Fund, Investor Class Shares (TTLFX) produced a 1.50% gain. That return outperformed the S&P 500 Index, the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, and the Lipper Long/Short Equity Funds Average. The fund seeks to generate returns that have historically been associated with stocks, with relatively low volatility and a correlation unlike that of the broad market.
Overall, six of the eight sectors in which the fund was invested made positive contributions to performance. Information-technology and financials holdings, in their long and short positions, contributed the most extra return. In those two sectors, semiconductor, data-networking, wireless-communications, insurance, investment-management, and investment-bank shares were among the winners. Detracting most from results were long and short holdings in the consumer-discretionary sector. In that sector, gaming, entertainment, e-commerce, and Internet-search shares performed unsatisfactorily.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Strong stock selection led to a substantial margin of outperformance for the Turner All Cap Growth Fund (TBTBX), formerly the Turner New Enterprise Fund, in the six months ended March 31. The fund gained 34.99%, beating the NASDAQ Composite Index return of 17.41% by 17.58 percentage points. The fund's gain was the biggest of any of our funds.
Altogether, eight of the fund's nine sector positions produced good relative returns. The information-technology, energy, consumer-staples, and materials sectors, which accounted for 54% of the fund's holdings, performed best. Winners here included data-networking, energy-services, supermarket, and metals shares. The lone sector that impaired performance was financials, a 9% weighting. Stocks in that sector producing unfavorable relative returns included securities-exchange, investment-management, and insurance shares.

Because it is so broad-based, the Index is one of the most widely followed and quoted major market indices.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Good results in three major sectors enhanced the performance of the Turner Concentrated Growth Fund (TTOPX) in the six-month period ended March 31. The fund rose 23.08%, outperforming the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 1000® Growth Index returns of 17.31% and 18.57% by 5.77 and 4.51 percentage points, respectively.
About 57% of the fund's holdings were concentrated in three sectors, information technology, consumer discretionary, and materials, whose returns added the most value to performance. In those sectors, semiconductor, data-networking, food-processing, gaming, and metals stocks performed well. Altogether, six of seven sector positions added extra return. The health-care sector, an 8% weighting, was the only detractor from performance, with health-services and medical-equipment shares recording lagging returns.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Ample outperformance in most sectors helped the Turner Emerging Growth Fund, Investor Class Shares (TMCGX) to produce favorable results in the six-month period ended March 31. The fund rose 33.51%, a return that beat the 27.93% advance by its benchmark, the Russell 2000® Growth Index, by 5.58 percentage points.
Six of the fund's 10 sector positions outperformed their corresponding index sectors. Outperforming the most were health-care, consumer-discretionary, energy, and materials stocks, which represented 47% of all holdings. In those sectors, medical-equipment, health-services, retailing, energy-services, and metals shares did relatively well. The primary detractor from results was the fund's financials position, a 2% weighting. Underperformers here included insurance and diversified financial stocks.

Manager's discussion and analysis
In the six-month period ended March 31, good stock picking fueled the performance of the Turner Large Growth Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TTMEX), formerly the Turner Core Growth Fund. As a result the fund advanced 20.86%, which outpaced the Russell 1000® Growth Index return of 18.57% by 2.29 percentage points.
Six of the fund's nine sector positions beat their corresponding index sectors. Providing the most extra return were information-technology, industrials, and consumer-discretionary shares, which accounted for 62% of holdings. Semiconductor, data-networking, industrial-equipment, automotive, gaming, and e-commerce stocks performed especially well. Financials stocks, a 6% weighting, were the greatest detriment to performance; diversified financial, insurance, and investment-management stocks were notable laggards.

Good stock selection, especially in the larger market sectors, and strong performance by small-cap stocks propelled the Turner Small Cap Growth Fund (TSCEX) to a 30.24% return in the six-month period ended March 31. The fund's results represented a margin of outperformance of 2.31 percentage points over the index, the Russell 2000® Growth Index, which gained 27.93%.
Seven of the fund's nine sector positions beat their index-sector counterparts. The fund's consumer-discretionary, information-technology, and health-care stocks, a 53% weighting, performed best in relative terms. Winners included cosmetics, mattress, electrical-supply, restaurant, photographic-services, digital-networking, wireless-communications, semiconductor, software, information-systems, health-benefits, vision-care, and drug-services stocks. A 5% position in financials stocks, particularly investment-bank, investment-management, and securities-trading services shares, were a drag on performance.

In the six-month period ended March 31, the Turner Quantitative Broad Market Equity Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TBMEX) rose 19.29%. That return was good enough to outdistance the Russell 3000® Index and the S&P 500 Index by 0.58 and 1.98 percentage points, respectively.
The fund's proprietary quantitative model selected stocks that did well in relative terms in seven of the 10 market sectors. Utilities and industrials stocks, a 14% weighting, enhanced performance to the greatest degree. Winners here included telecommunications, electric-utility, industrial-equipment, and heavy-equipment shares. Hurting results the most were energy and consumer-staples stocks, which represented 18% of the portfolio; energy-exploration, energy-services, convenience-store, and food-processing stocks were among the detractors.

In the six-month period ended March 31, the Turner Quantitative Large Cap Value Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TLVFX) climbed 16.21%. That return trailed the Russell 1000® Value Index's 17.68% gain by 1.47 percentage points.
The fund's proprietary quantitative model selected stocks that did relatively well in three of the 10 market sectors: health care, consumer staples, and industrials, a 29% weighting. The best performers in those sectors included medical-equipment, health-services, beverage, and industrial-equipment shares. Utilities, energy, and consumer-discretionary holdings, representing 29% of the portfolio, impaired results the most; electric-utility, telecommunications, petroleum, natural-gas, energy-services, e-commerce, apparel, and automotive stocks were among the detractors.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Exceptionally strong performance in two sectors was enough to provide the Turner Global Opportunities Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TGLBX) with the push to outpace its benchmark in the six-month period ended March 31. The fund gained 23.26%, a return that beat the 14.33% and 14.42% returns of its benchmarks, the MSCI World Growth Index and the MSCI World Index by 8.93 and 8.84 percentage points, respectively.
The big sector outperformers, health care and industrials, accounted for 23% of the fund's holdings. Among the winners in those two sectors were pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical-device, metals, and mining stocks. The primary detractors from results were the fund's information-technology and financials positions, a 48% weighting. Underperformers here included software, semiconductor, insurance, and securities-exchange stocks.

Manager's discussion and analysis
Substantially outdoing the rising international stock market in the six months ended March 31, the Turner International Growth Fund, Institutional Class Shares (TICGX), formerly the Turner International Core Growth Fund, gained 22.79%. The fund outperformed the return for its benchmark, the MSCI World ex-U.S. Growth Index, by 11.39 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 financials, industrials, and consumer-discretionary sectors, which accounted for a 34% weighting. Insurance, investment-management, industrial-equipment, Internet, hotel, and e-commerce stocks performed best. Conversely, energy shares, which constituted 6% of the portfolio, impaired performance the most. Energy-production and energy-services stocks in particular produced subpar returns.

Manager's discussion and analysis
In a robust market for small-cap stocks, the Turner Small Cap Equity Fund, Investor Class Shares (TSEIX) rose 29.07% in the six-month period ended March 31. The fund's return exceeded the Russell 2000® Index's 25.48% gain by 3.59 percentage points.
The fund is invested in both growth and value stocks, and its growth holdings generally outperformed its value holdings. Six of the fund's eight sector positions beat their corresponding index sectors. The greatest degree of outperformance was supplied by information-technology and consumer-discretionary stocks, which represented 31% of the portfolio. Winners included digital-graphics, software, image-sensor, information-systems, laser, retail, and food-processing shares. A 23% position in health-care and materials stocks hurt results the most; specifically, health-care services, diagnostic-test, and metals holdings produced disappointing results.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to financial statements
March 31, 2011
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 fifteen active portfolios as of March 31, 2011. The financial statements included herein are those of the Turner Market Neutral Fund (the "Market Neutral Fund"), the Turner Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund (the "Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund), the Turner Spectrum Fund (the "Spectrum Fund"), the Turner Titan Fund (the "Titan Fund"), the Turner All Cap Growth Fund (the "All Cap Growth Fund", formerly the Turner New Enterprise Fund), the Turner Concentrated Growth Fund (the "Concentrated Growth Fund"), the Turner Emerging Growth Fund (the "Emerging Growth Fund"), the Turner Large Growth Fund (the "Large Growth Fund", formerly the Turner Core Growth Fund), the Turner Midcap Growth Fund (the "Midcap Growth Fund"), the 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 Turner Global Opportunities Fund (the "Global Opportunities Fund"), the Turner International Growth Fund (the "International Growth Fund", formerly the Turner International Core Growth Fund), and the Turner Small Cap Equity Fund (the "Small Cap Equity Fund"), each a "Fund" and collectively the "Funds." The Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund and Titan Fund commenced operations on February 7, 2011.
Each Fund is registered as a diversified portfolio of the Trust with the exception of the Concentrated Growth Fund and Global Opportunities Fund, 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 bid and ask prices from two broker-dealers who make a market in the security and determine the average of the two.
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 Committee 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
88 TURNER FUNDS 2011 SEMIANNUAL REPORT
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 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 Sub-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 Sub-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 information provided.
The Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund, Titan Fund, Global Opportunities Fund and International Growth Fund use Interactive Data Pricing and Reference Data, Inc. ("Interactive Data") as a third party fair valuation vendor. Interactive Data provides a fair value for foreign securities in the Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund, Titan Fund, Global Opportunities Fund and International Growth 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 exceeded on a specific day, the Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund, Titan Fund, Global Opportunities Fund and International Growth 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' Sub-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 hierarchy to maximize the use of the observable market data and minimize the use of the 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, 2011 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs. For the six months ended March 31, 2011, 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. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy during the reporting period. For each Fund there were no significant
TURNER FUNDS 2011 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 89
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
transfers between the levels during the reporting period, based on the input levels assigned under the hierarchy at the beginning and end of the reporting period.
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 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 brokers 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. The Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund and Titan Fund engaged in short sales during the six months ended March 31, 2011.
Option transactions—As consistent with each Fund's investment objectives, 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 consideration 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 (loss) on written option contracts and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on written option contracts, respectively. Realized and unrealized gains and (losses) on purchased options in the Spectrum Fund for the six months ended March 31, 2011 were $(1,228,684) and $(1,181,393), respectively. Realized and unrealized gains and (losses) on purchased options in the All Cap Growth Fund for the six months ended March 31, 2011 were $(123,376) and $8,250, respectively. These amounts are shown on the Statement of Operations as net realized gain (loss) from securities

sold and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, respectively.
Foreign currency translation—The books and records of the Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund, Titan Fund, Global Opportunities Fund and International 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 Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund, Titan Fund, Global Opportunities Fund and International Growth Fund do 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 or 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 Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund, Titan Fund, Global Opportunities Fund and International 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.
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.

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.

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 total Fund operating expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses and interest expenses relating to short sales, except for the Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund and Titan Fund, for which Turner includes acquired fund fees and expenses and interest expenses relating to short sales in its contractual waiver) to a specified percentage of the average daily net assets of each Fund, except the Concentrated Growth Fund and All Cap Growth Fund, on an annualized basis through certain dates disclosed in the following table:

For the remaining Funds, the Concentrated Growth Fund and the All Cap Growth Fund, the advisory fee is comprised of a base fee and 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 All Cap Growth 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, acquired fund fees and expenses and interest expenses relating to short sales) 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
92 TURNER FUNDS 2011 SEMIANNUAL REPORT
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 | |
All Cap Growth Fund | | | 1.10 | % | | | +/-0.40% | | | | +/-2.50% | | | | 0.25 | % | |
Concentrated Growth Fund | | | 1.10 | % | | | +/-0.40% | | | | +/-2.50% | | | | 0.25 | % | |
(1) See the Funds' Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for more information regarding each Fund's performance benchmark.
During the six months ended March 31, 2011, 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 | |
All Cap Growth Fund | | $ | 224,657 | | | $ | 69,832 | | | $ | 294,489 | | |
Concentrated Growth Fund | | | 278,800 | | | | 82,690 | | | | 361,490 | | |
6. Redemption fees:
Sales or exchanges out of the All Cap Growth Fund, Large Growth 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 charges:
A 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") will be deducted with respect to the Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund and Titan 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 Market Neutral Fund, Medical Sciences Long/Short Fund, Spectrum Fund and Titan Fund's Class C statutory prospectus.
8. Investment transactions:

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, expired capital loss carryforwards, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and investments in partnerships and passive foreign investment companies. 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, 2010 and September 30, 2009 were as follows (000):
| | Ordinary income | | Long-term capital gain | | Return of capital | | Total | |

As of March 7, 2011, the Large Growth Fund credited accumulated net realized loss $12,828 (000) and charged paid-in-capital $123,626 (000) and unrealized appreciation $31,165 (000) due to the Turner Large Cap Growth Fund ("Large Cap Growth Fund") merger with the Large Growth Fund. Internal Revenue Code 382 limits the amount of annual capital loss carryover available for use. It is unlikely that the Fund will need to permanently forfeit any of these amounts.
94 TURNER FUNDS 2011 SEMIANNUAL REPORT
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, (the "Modernization Act"), was signed into law by President Obama on December 22, 2010. The Modernization Act makes a number of changes to the provisions in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended relating to regulated investment companies ("RICs") that will generally become effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The Modernization Act allows RICs to generally carryover net capital losses indefinitely, effective for losses arising in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. Such losses will retain their character as either long-term capital losses or short-term capital losses. Under pre-enactment law, capital losses could be carried forward for eight years and carried forward as short-term losses irrespective of the character of the original loss. Loss carryovers from years beginning prior to December 22, 2010 will still expire subject to the eight-year limitation. The Modernization Act further provides that losses arising in taxable years after December 22, 2010 (which are carried forward indefinitely) would be utilized prior to loss carryovers arising in taxable years beginning prior to December 22, 2010.
At March 31, 2011, the total cost of securities for Federal income tax purposes and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for the investments held by the Fund, excluding securities sold short and written options, were as follows (000):

Management has analyzed the Funds' tax positions taken on Federal income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of March 31, 2011, 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. Concentration/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.

During the six months ended March 31, 2011, there were no in-kind transactions.
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. Fund merger:
On March 7, 2011, the Large Growth Fund acquired all of the net assets of the Large Cap Growth Fund, an open-end investment company, pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by the Large Cap Growth Fund shareholders on February 28, 2011. The purpose of the transaction was to combine the two Funds managed by the Adviser with similar investment objectives and policies. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 10,966,460 Institutional Class shares and 119,229 Investor Class shares of the Large Growth Fund, valued at $140,366,060 and $1,517,732, respectively, for 23,818,691 Institutional Class shares and 258,725 Investor Class shares of the Large Cap Growth Fund outstanding on March 7, 2011. The exchange ratios (Large Growth Fund shares issued/Large Cap Growth Fund shares outstanding) were 0.46:1 and 0.46:1 for the Institutional Class and Investor Class, respectively.
The investment portfolio of the Large Cap Growth Fund, with a fair value of $141,864,763 and identified cost of $110,699,412 at March 7, 2011, was the principal asset acquired by the Large Growth Fund. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by the Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Large Cap Growth Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of the Large Growth Fund's realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
Upon the business combination of the Funds on March 7, 2011, the net assets of the Large Cap Growth Fund, which included portfolio capital of $123,626,391, accumulated net investment loss of $39,065, accumulated realized losses of $12,868,885 and unrealized gains of $31,165,351, combined with the Large Growth Fund were $666,939,990. The undistributed net investment income and unrealized gains of the Large Cap Growth Fund may be distributed by the Large Growth Fund in future periods. Immediately prior to the merger, the net assets of the Large Cap Growth Fund and the Large Growth Fund were $141,883,792 and $525,056,198, respectively. All fees and expenses incurred by the Large Cap Growth Fund and the Large Growth Fund directly in connection with the Plan of Reorganization were borne by the Adviser.
Assuming the acquisition had been completed on October 1, 2010, the beginning of the annual reporting period of the Large Growth Fund, the Fund's pro forma results of operations for the six months ended March 31, 2011, are as follows (000):
Net investment income/(loss): | | $ | (287 | ) | |
Net realized/unrealized gains/(losses): | | | 146,276 | | |
Change in net assets resulting from operations: | | $ | 145,989 | | |
96 TURNER FUNDS 2011 SEMIANNUAL REPORT
Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Large Cap Growth Fund that have been included in the Large Growth Fund Statement of Operations since March 7, 2011.
15. Subsequent events:
On February 25, 2011, the Board determined to close and liquidate the Quantitative Large Cap Value Fund and the Small Cap Equity Fund, effective on April 29, 2011. This decision was made after careful consideration of the Funds' asset size, strategic importance, current expenses and historical performance. In connection with the liquidation, the Funds discontinued accepting orders for the purchase of the Funds' shares or exchanges into the Funds from other Turner Funds after the close of business on April 1, 2011. On the close of business on April 29, 2011, the Funds distributed pro rata all of its assets in cash to their shareholders, and all outstanding shares were redeemed and cancelled.
Effective April 14, 2011, the Emerging Growth Fund was reopened to new investors and existing shareholders.
On May 27, 2011, the Board determined to close and liquidate the Quantitative Broad Market Equity Fund, effective June 30, 2011.
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, 2011.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONSIDERATIONS IN APPROVING THE ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (Unaudited)
Board of Trustees considerations in approving the Advisory Agreements
On November 19, 2010, the Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees") of the Turner Funds (the "Funds" or the "Trust") held a meeting to decide whether to approve the advisory agreement with Turner Investment Partners, Inc. ("TIP") with respect to each of the Turner Market Neutral Fund, the Turner Titan Fund, and the Turner Medical Sciences Fund (collectively, the "New Funds"). In preparation for the meeting, the Board requested and reviewed a wide variety of information from TIP. The information described, among other things: TIP's business; its organizational structure, personnel and operations; advisory services; the performance of the separate accounts/ strategies that replicated the proposed strategies of the New Funds over past periods; compliance; the proposed advisory fees and expenses to be paid by the New Funds; and information on trading. At the meeting, representatives from TIP presented additional oral information to the Trustees to help them evaluate TIP's fees and other aspects of the advisory agreement. The Trustees discussed the written materials and TIP's oral presentation, and deliberated on the approval of the advisory agreement in light of this information.
The Board, including all of the independent Trustees, considered, among other things: (1) the nature, extent and quality of the proposed services provided by TIP; (2) the performance of the separate accounts/ strategies over the past periods (as available) and versus each New Fund's proposed 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 proposed expense ratios of the New Funds, with expense waivers, as compared to expense ratios for relevant Morningstar peer groups; (5) the qualifications of TIP's personnel, portfolio management capabilities and investment methodologies; (6) TIP's operations, compliance program and policies; (7) the financial condition of TIP; (8) the cost of services provided by TIP and TIP's potential profitability from managing the New Funds; (9) "fall-out" benefits to TIP and its affiliates from the relationship with the New Funds; (10) the extent to which economies of scale are relevant given the New Funds' proposed asset size and current asset growth potential; and (11) a comparison of the fees charged by TIP with fees charged by TIP to similar clients, to the extent it deemed it relevant.
The independent Trustees, in executive session, reached the following conclusions, among others, regarding TIP and the advisory agreements: the recent performance of the separate account or strategies, as applicable, was generally comparable, and in some cases better, than their respective benchmarks; the proposed advisory fees were generally competitive with the fees of their Morningstar peer groups; and the net total expense ratios of the New Funds were generally competitive. The independent Trustees also concluded that: they were satisfied with the quality of services provided by TIP in advising the existing Turner Funds and believed that the proposed portfolio management teams for the New Funds had the expertise to handle the new products; the fact that TIP did not expect, at least initially, to earn any significant profits from management of the New Funds and in fact would have to subsidize them for an initial period; and that each New Fund was not large enough to attain significant economies of scale.
Based on the factors considered, the independent Trustees had concluded that it was appropriate to approve the advisory agreement with respect to the New Funds.
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 approve the advisory agreement and (b) determined that the compensation payable by the New Funds under the advisory agreement is fair and reasonable.
On February 25, 2011, the Board of the Trust held a meeting to decide whether to renew the advisory agreements for each of the Turner Funds (the "Advisory Agreements") with TIP and Turner Investment Management LLC (collectively, the "Adviser") for the upcoming year. In preparation for the meeting, the board requested and reviewed a wide variety of information from the Adviser. The materials described, among other things: the Adviser's business; the Adviser's organizational structure, personnel and operations; advisory services; the Funds' performance; compliance; advisory fees and expenses paid by the Funds for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010; and information on trading. At the meeting, representatives of the Adviser 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; the Adviser's Form ADVs; and a profitability report for the Adviser for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010.
The Board, including all of the independent Trustees, considered, among other things: (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser; (2) the performance of the Funds over the past one, three, five and ten years, where applicable, versus each Fund's respective Morningstar category and peer group; (3) the
98 TURNER FUNDS 2011 SEMIANNUAL REPORT
BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONSIDERATIONS IN APPROVING THE ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (Unaudited)
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 Fund for the year ended September 30, 2010; (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 similar clients, to the extent the Board deemed it relevant.
The independent Trustees, in executive session, reached the following conclusions, among others, regarding the Adviser and the Advisory Agreements: the recent performance of the Funds was, in most cases, within industry norms. They determined that although performance lagged peer groups in the case of several Funds, the Adviser had helped the performance of the Funds, and the Funds' recent performance, in general, was satisfactory. Moreover, the independent Trustees noted the recent enhancements to the staffing of the portfolio management department and to that department's structure. The independent Trustees also concluded that the Funds' net total expense ratios and advisory fees were generally competitive, and noted that the recently negotiated reductions in transfer agency fees would make them more so. 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, and the Trust, was not large enough to attain significant economies of scale.
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 (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 on-going 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 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 help you 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 cost 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.
