Chairman’s Letter
Dear Shareholder,
The past 12 months were marked by familiar concerns—the pace of the recovery in the United States, the debt crisis in Europe, and a slowdown in growth in emerging markets. And the response from the Federal Reserve and a number of central banks abroad was familiar as well—further monetary policy action to lower borrowing costs for households and corporations.
In this environment of cheap money, returns for the Vanguard Money Market Funds hovered near zero. The Prime Money Market Fund returned 0.04% for Investor Shares, while Institutional Shares, with their lower expense ratio, fared slightly better at 0.11%. Both the Federal and Admiral Treasury Money Market Funds returned 0.01%. Although it’s of little comfort, the funds managed to do better than the average return of 0.00% for their peer groups.
As of August 31, 2012, the Prime Money Market Fund’s 7-day SEC yield had inched up to 0.04% from 0.03% a year earlier for Investor Shares and stood unchanged at 0.11% for Institutional Shares. Yields of the Federal and Admiral Treasury Money Market Funds were 0.01% and 0.02%, respectively, compared with 0.01% for both funds a year earlier. (These two funds have been closed to new investors since 2009.) All three money market funds maintained a net asset value of $1 per share, as is expected but not guaranteed.

Near the end of the period under review, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that it would not move ahead at that time with proposed regulatory changes for money market funds. These changes would have gone beyond the significant regulatory improvements the SEC adopted in 2010. Regulators continue to evaluate money market funds, however, and debate about next steps continues. While the regulatory environment may be in flux, that has not affected the high standards for credit quality and liquidity that we have always applied to Vanguard money market funds as we seek to provide a stable and liquid cash-management tool for investors.
Bonds continued their march, as yields dropped to record lows
Bonds produced solid returns for the period; the broad U.S. taxable market advanced nearly 6% for the 12 months. Long-term U.S. Treasuries were particularly strong as they benefited from the Federal Reserve’s bond-buying program, known as Operation Twist.
As bond prices rose, the yield of the 10-year U.S. Treasury note fell to a record low in July, closing below 1.5%. (Bond yields and prices move in opposite directions.) Bondholders have enjoyed years of strong returns. But as Tim Buckley, our incoming chief investment

officer, has noted, investors shouldn’t be surprised if future results are more modest. As yields tumble, the scope for further declines—and price increases—diminishes.
As it has since December 2008, the Federal Reserve Board held its target for the shortest-term interest rates between 0% and 0.25%, keeping a tight rein on the returns from money market funds and savings accounts.
U.S. stocks shook off concerns to produce double-digit returns
U.S. stocks generated robust gains, returning nearly 17%. They seemed to get a lift as the U.S. economy continued to grow, albeit at a modest rate, and avoided the “double-dip” recession that some investors had feared.
Though European stocks posted strong returns in local-currency terms, this performance was much more modest when converted into U.S. dollars—a result of the dollar’s strengthening against the euro during the 12 months. Signs of slowing economic growth restrained returns for emerging markets and the developed markets of the Pacific region.
Questions about the finances of European governments and banks continued to preoccupy investors. Although the situation in Europe is very fluid, Vanguard

economists believe the most likely scenario is that the Eurozone will “muddle through” for several years, with occasional spikes in market volatility, as fiscal tightening continues in the face of weak economic growth.
Monetary policy keeping a lid on money market returns
Signs that global growth was slowing over the past 12 months spurred central banks around the world into action. While China, Brazil, and the European Central Bank cut their interest rates, the Federal Reserve had little room to maneuver given that it has kept the federal funds rate at a target range of 0.00%–0.25% since 2008. However, the Fed announced in January that it was extending the period through which it expects interest rates to remain “exceptionally low” from mid-2013 to late 2014. (It pushed the date out even further—to mid-2015—just after the close of the period under review.) And in June, citing weak economic data as well as “significant downside risks” in global financial markets, the Fed lowered its growth forecast for the U.S. economy and announced it would extend its Operation Twist program until the end of 2012. Through the program, which began in September 2011 and was originally scheduled to end in June, the Fed sells shorter-term Treasuries and buys longer-term ones to drive down longer-term financing costs.
Operation Twist, along with sustained demand for longer-term Treasuries as a safe haven in turbulent financial markets,

Investment returns will fluctuate. All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the funds. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although a money market fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in such a fund.

contributed to a flattening of the yield curve during the 12-month period: Yields of Treasuries with maturities of less than 3 years rose slightly, while yields of securities with longer maturities declined (the yield of the 3-month T-bill, for example, rose from 0.01% to 0.09%, while the yield of the 10-year Treasury note fell from 2.22% to 1.56%).
With yields low across all money market instruments, returns for all three Vanguard funds hovered near zero. That said, the funds’ advisor, Vanguard (through its Fixed Income Group), continued to seek as much income as possible while maintaining high credit-quality standards.
The Prime Money Market Fund had exposure to the debt of foreign banks in the form of commercial paper (a type of unsecured loan) and dollar-denominated certificates of deposit. Because of the ongoing financial troubles in Europe, the advisor had eliminated all of the fund’s direct exposure to European banks by the end of 2011 while increasing its exposure to Australian and Canadian banks of higher credit quality. Altogether, holdings of foreign banks stood at around 19% of the fund’s assets at the end of the 12-month period.

The Prime Money Market Fund also had limited exposure to corporate debt as well as to repurchase agreements, which represent very short-term loans of government securities.
Looking at a decade of returns paints a brighter picture
Short-term interest rates have not always been as low as they are now. Despite near-zero returns for the past several years, the Prime Money Market Fund generated an average annualized return for the past ten years of 1.88% for Investor Shares and 2.04% for Institutional Shares. The Federal and Admiral Treasury Money Market Funds returned 1.81% and 1.73%, respectively, for the same period. On a comparative basis, all three funds performed well, outpacing the average returns of their peer-fund groups.
Why have money market funds in your portfolio?
We believe that every asset in your portfolio should be there for a reason. With yields from money market funds so low, some investors might be wondering if their money wouldn’t be better off elsewhere. But if you have a short-term savings goal, holding a money market fund in your portfolio can still make sense. Like the yields on other savings vehicles, the yields of the Vanguard Money Market Funds have been disappointing. The funds have nevertheless succeeded in providing savers with a stable, highly liquid place to hold cash for shorter-term needs. These funds invest in high-quality, short-term instruments with the aim of preserving your capital in both stable financial markets and in periods of uncertainty. And they are designed to ensure that your capital is readily available should you need to access it.
But not all money market funds are created equal. Our in-house credit analysis has allowed us to avoid some of the recent potholes—in the Prime Money Market Fund, for example, we eliminated direct exposure to French, Italian, and Spanish banks back in December 2010. And preserving liquidity is a central goal, so in periods of market volatility, the advisor will often tilt the Prime Money Market Fund’s allocation toward U.S. Treasury securities, as it did during the financial crisis.
For further details on how our money market funds are managed and what role they can play in a portfolio, we invite you to consult a recent Vanguard commentary on that topic, The Buck Stops Here: Vanguard Money Market Funds, available at vanguard.com/research.
As always, thank you for your confidence in Vanguard.
Sincerely,

Advisor’s Report
With short-term interest rates anchored near zero, returns for the three Vanguard Money Market Funds for the 12 months ended August 31, 2012, ranged from 0.01% for the Federal and Admiral Treasury Money Market Funds to 0.11% for Institutional Shares of the Prime Money Market Fund.
During the period, the weak labor market and strains in global financial markets prompted further monetary action from the Federal Reserve. In September 2011, it announced “Operation Twist,” which involves selling short-term U.S. Treasuries and reinvesting the proceeds in longer-dated Treasuries with the aim of driving down financing costs for businesses and consumers. And to aid the mortgage market in particular, the Fed began reinvesting maturing positions in agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) in additional agency MBS. In June 2012, it announced that Operation Twist would continue through the end of the year and that the federal funds target rate was likely to remain extremely low through 2014 rather than through mid-2013, as it had previously indicated (a timetable it extended even further in September).
Toward the end of the period, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that it would not be moving forward for the time being with a number of regulatory changes for money market funds beyond those adopted in 2010.
At this time, policymakers and other regulatory bodies continue to debate whether additional changes might be called for.
Portfolio adjustments
Given the uncertainties in the financial markets and our conservative approach to investing, shifts in the funds’ asset mix during the period were generally not that significant, as they reflected a search for relative value, but only among very high-quality assets. For example, we favored the higher yields of agency securities compared with Treasuries at the beginning of the period, but as the difference in their yields narrowed, we added Treasuries for their liquidity.
Similarly, we sought out investment opportunities among foreign banks (in the form of certificates of deposit and commercial paper), but limited our holdings to high-quality Canadian and Australian financial institutions while eliminating all exposure to European banks.
More than a dozen global banks, including five centered in the United States, were downgraded by Moody’s Investors Service in June. As the move was largely anticipated, we were able to make adjustments to the Prime Money Market Fund well in advance of the downgrades, avoiding any significant impact to its portfolio.
8
The outlook
Short-term interest rates don’t look likely to move higher any time soon. Just after the close of the period under review, the Federal Reserve announced that it was once again pushing out how long it expects to keep the federal funds rate at “exceptionally low levels,” this time until at least mid-2015. The Fed also announced that it would start buying $40 billion of mortgage-backed securities per month, which will certainly provide further support to that segment of the market.
The situation in Europe remains a concern. Although European governments have taken significant steps to address some of the liquidity issues in their own marketplace, the conditions that were problematic two years ago are still in place today. We will continue to monitor developments in Europe, but are likely to remain on the sidelines until we see fundamental improvements.
We will continue to position the portfolios conservatively, given the level of uncertainty in the markets, which means favoring the credit quality and price stability afforded by U.S. Treasuries and agency securities.

Prime Money Market Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
Vanguard Prime Money Market Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in short-term debt instruments of companies primarily operating in specific industries, particularly financial services; the issuers’ abilities to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in such industries. The fund offers two classes of shares, Investor Shares and Institutional Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Institutional Shares are designed for institutional investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria.
A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.
1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Investments in Vanguard Municipal Cash Management Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value.
2. Repurchase Agreements: The fund may enter into repurchase agreements. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, the fund may sell or retain the collateral; however, such action may be subject to legal proceedings.
3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (August 31, 2009–2012), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.
4. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month.
5. Other: Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Municipal Cash Management Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.
Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.
B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At August 31, 2012, the fund had contributed capital of $16,449,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 6.58% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard. Vanguard and the board of trustees have agreed to temporarily limit certain net operating expenses in excess of the fund’s daily yield so as to maintain a zero or positive yield for the fund. Vanguard and the board of trustees may terminate the temporary expense limitation at any time.

Prime Money Market Fund
C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).
The fund’s investment in Vanguard Municipal Cash Management Fund is valued based on Level 1 inputs. All of the fund’s other investments were valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, securities valued at amortized cost are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
D. Capital share transactions for each class of shares were:

Performance Summary
Investment returns will fluctuate. All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. The fund’s 7-day SEC yield reflects its current earnings more closely than do the average annual returns.

Federal Money Market Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
Vanguard Federal Money Market Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in short-term debt instruments issued by the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities, and repurchase agreements collateralized by such instruments.
A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements. 1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
2. Repurchase Agreements: The fund may enter into repurchase agreements. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, the fund may sell or retain the collateral; however, such action may be subject to legal proceedings.
3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (August 31, 2009–2012), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.
4. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month.
5. Other: Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.
B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At August 31, 2012, the fund had contributed capital of $600,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.24% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard. Vanguard and the board of trustees have agreed to temporarily limit certain net operating expenses in excess of the fund’s daily yield so as to maintain a zero or positive yield for the fund. Vanguard and the board of trustees may terminate the temporary expense limitation at any time. For the year ended August 31, 2012, Vanguard’s expenses were reduced by $1,645,000 (an effective annual rate of 0.04% of the fund’s average net assets).

Federal Money Market Fund
C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).
At August 31, 2012, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was determined using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, securities valued at amortized cost are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
D. In preparing the financial statements as of August 31, 2012, management considered the impact of subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

Performance Summary
Investment returns will fluctuate. All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. The fund’s 7-day SEC yield reflects its current earnings more closely than do the average annual returns.

Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
Vanguard Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in short-term debt instruments backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.
A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements 1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
2. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (August 31, 2009–2012), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.
3. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month.
4. Other: Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.
B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At August 31, 2012, the fund had contributed capital of $1,953,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.78% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard. Vanguard and the board of trustees have agreed to temporarily limit certain net operating expenses in excess of the fund’s daily yield so as to maintain a zero or positive yield for the fund. Vanguard and the board of trustees may terminate the temporary expense limitation at any time. For the year ended August 31, 2012, Vanguard’s expenses were reduced by $6,934,000 (an effective annual rate of 0.05% of the fund’s average net assets).
C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).
53
Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund
At August 31, 2012, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was determined using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, securities valued at amortized cost are considered to be valued using Level 2 inputs.
D. In preparing the financial statements as of August 31, 2012, management considered the impact of subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered
Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Vanguard Money Market Reserves and Vanguard Admiral Funds and the Shareholders of Vanguard Prime Money Market Fund, Vanguard Federal Money Market Fund and Vanguard Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vanguard Prime Money Market Fund, Vanguard Federal Money Market Fund and Vanguard Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund (the “Funds”) at August 31, 2012, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2012 by correspondence with the custodians and brokers and by agreement to the underlying ownership records of Vanguard Municipal Cash Management Fund, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

About Your Fund’s Expenses
As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.
A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.
The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:
• Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.
To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“
• Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.
Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”
The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.
You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund | $1,000.00 | $1,024.80 | $0.41 |
The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The funds’ annualized six-month expense ratios for the period are: for the Prime Money Market Fund, 0.16% for Investor Shares and 0.09% for Institutional Shares; for the Federal Money Market Fund, 0.14%; and for the Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund, 0.08%. The annualized six-month expense ratios for the Federal Money Market Fund and the Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund reflect a temporary reduction in operating expenses (described in Note B of the Notes to Financial Statements). Before the reduction, the annualized six-month expense ratios were: for the Federal Money Market Fund, 0.18%; and for the Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund, 0.13%.

Trustees Approve Advisory Arrangement
The board of trustees of Vanguard Prime Money Market Fund, Federal Money Market Fund, and Admiral Treasury Money Market Fund has renewed the funds’ investment advisory arrangement with The Vanguard Group, Inc. Vanguard—through its Fixed Income Group—serves as the investment advisor to the funds. The board determined that continuing the funds’ internalized management structure was in the best interests of the funds and their shareholders.
The board based its decision upon an evaluation of the advisor’s investment staff, portfolio management process, and performance. The trustees considered the factors discussed below, among others. However, no single factor determined whether the board approved the arrangement. Rather, it was the totality of the circumstances that drove the board’s decision.
Nature, extent, and quality of services
The board considered the quality of the funds’ investment management over both the short and long term and took into account the organizational depth and stability of the advisor. The board noted that Vanguard has been managing investments for more than three decades. The Fixed Income Group adheres to a sound, disciplined investment management process; the team has considerable experience, stability, and depth.
The board concluded that Vanguard’s experience, stability, depth, and performance, among other factors, warranted continuation of the advisory arrangement.
Investment performance
The board considered the short- and long-term performance of the funds, including any periods of outperformance or underperformance of relevant benchmarks and peer groups. The board concluded that the funds have performed in line with expectations, and that their results have been consistent with their investment policies. Information about each fund’s most recent performance can be found on the Performance Summary pages of this report.
Cost
The board concluded that each fund’s expense ratio was well below the average expense ratio charged by funds in its peer group and that the funds’ advisory fee rates were also well below their peer-group averages. Information about the funds’ expenses appears in the About Your Fund’s Expenses section of this report as well as in the Financial Statements sections.
The board does not conduct a profitability analysis of Vanguard, because of Vanguard’s unique “at-cost” structure. Unlike most other mutual fund management companies, Vanguard is owned by the funds it oversees, and produces “profits” only in the form of reduced expenses for fund shareholders.
The benefit of economies of scale
The board concluded that the funds’ low-cost arrangement with Vanguard ensures that the funds will realize economies of scale as they grow, with the cost to shareholders declining as fund assets increase.
The board will consider whether to renew the advisory arrangement again after a one-year period.

Glossary
SEC Yields. A money market fund’s 7-day SEC yield is calculated by annualizing its income distributions for the previous seven days, as required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Average Weighted Maturity. The average length of time until fixed income securities held by a fund reach maturity and are repaid. The figure reflects the proportion of fund assets represented by each security.
Credit Quality. For Vanguard money market funds, the Distribution by Credit Quality table includes tier ratings for consistency with SEC Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which governs money market funds. A First Tier security is one that is eligible for money market funds and has been rated in the highest short-term rating category for debt obligations by the requisite nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. An unrated security is First Tier if it represents quality comparable to that of a rated security, as determined in accordance with SEC Rule 2a-7. A Second Tier security is one that is eligible for money market funds and is not a First Tier security.
Expense Ratio. A fund’s total annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. The expense ratio includes management and administrative expenses, but does not include the transaction costs of buying and selling portfolio securities.
Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.

The People Who Govern Your Fund
The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.
A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 179 Vanguard funds.
The following table provides information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. More information about the trustees is in the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained, without charge, by contacting Vanguard at 800-662-7447, or online at vanguard.com.
