NEW COVENANT FUNDS ANNUAL REPORT
Letter to Shareholders
Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholders:
As the New Covenant Funds completed the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, we are monitoring a fragile economic recovery. Signs of economic improvement — including improved corporate earnings, increased global trade and stabilizing housing markets — were apparent in the last year. However, robust growth has failed to take hold and continued global uncertainty has meant price volatility, especially in the second quarter of 2010.
We continue to watch efforts to re-stimulate a struggling economy that are having only a modest impact. Despite massive government intervention including recent moves by the Federal Reserve to bring down long-term interest rates, demand remains sluggish and unemployment remains stubbornly high. Debt reduction in the private sector, housing overcapacity, and excess production has meant that inflation expectations remain muted despite attempts to re-inflate in the U.S.
Global events undermined investor confidence in fiscal 2010. News of the sovereign debt crisis in Europe, a major oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, tightened financial regulation in the U.S., and tighter credit in China all led to upheaval in global equity markets.
Bond markets generally outperformed equity markets in the first half of 2010. Strong demand for long-dated Treasury notes resulted in a 10-year Treasury yield of less than 3% at the end of the period. Much of the demand in the mortgage and Treasury bond markets has been provided by the Federal Reserve. The Fed’s intervention has resulted in historically low interest rates, but lending and loan demand continues to be tepid. A near-zero rate policy for overnight funds has produced a remarkably steep yield curve, which has improved health in the banking sector as banks focus on their primary business model — borrowing short and lending long. Throughout the year, spreads generally narrowed on commercial mortgage backed securities (CMBS) and other spread sectors. However, corporate spreads generally widened in the second quarter of 2010 as investors bid up Treasury securities.
Looking abroad, weakness in Europe continued to ripple around the globe. Emerging evidence of a recovery in Western Europe was quickly quashed by concerns about potentially contagious indebted countries. In Japan, persistent deflation, changing political leadership and a strong yen relative to the U.S. dollar weighed on Asian equity prices, which fell sharply in the second quarter of 2010.
Our social investing mandate means that we continue to steward the Funds based on the tenets of the Presbyterian Church (USA)’s General Assembly Mission Council Mission Responsibility Through Investing (MRTI) committee. In addition to companies prohibited based on the MRTI guidelines, our list of prohibited securities also includes companies that derive significant amounts of their revenue from the alcohol, gambling, tobacco and firearms industries. The list additionally includes companies operating in Sudan (human rights issues) that are prohibited for investment in accordance with the church’s policies.
The New Covenant Growth Fund
For the 12-months ended June 30, 2010, the New Covenant Growth Fund was up 11.54% versus the Standard & Poor’s 5001 benchmark return of 14.43% for the same period. The Fund’s allocation to international equities negatively impacted the Fund’s results relative to the benchmark due, in part, to the strength in the U.S. dollar.
At the end of the second quarter, we welcomed a new subadvisor to the New Covenant Growth Fund, Baillie Gifford Overseas Ltd., of Edinburgh, Scotland. Baillie Gifford manages a relatively concentrated portfolio and is a bottom-up equity investor. The firm seeks long-term investments in well-managed, quality businesses that enjoy sustainable competitive advantages in their marketplace, with a preference for companies that generate more than enough cash to sustain internal growth. Currently, the portion of the New Covenant Growth Fund that is subadvised by Baillie Gifford emphasizes companies that derive much of their revenues outside of North America and developed Europe.
The New Covenant Growth Fund subadvisors2 are:
• | Wellington Management Company LLP, which manages the core equity portfolio using a blend of fundamental and quantitative research to select stocks as well as employs risk management controls relative to the Russell 1000 Index. On June 30, 2010, the allocation to Wellington was 52%. |
• | Sound Shore Management, Inc., which seeks to capitalize on disparities between large domestic companies’ stock prices and intrinsic values. Sound Shore’s allocation was 16% as of June 30, 2010. |
• | Baillie Gifford Overseas Ltd., our new international subadvisor, replacing Capital Guardian Trust Company, which emphasizes bottom-up equity research and manages a relatively concentrated portfolio of international stocks. As of June 30, 2010, Baillie Gifford managed 16% of the Fund. |
• | Santa Barbara Asset Management, which focuses on shares of large established companies it expects to grow over time. As of June 30, 2010, Santa Barbara managed 13% of the Fund. |
• | Times Square Capital Management, which is responsible for the mid-cap growth satellite portfolio and emphasizes bottom-up equity research as well as fundamental analysis and security selection. As of June 30, 2010, Times Square managed 3% of the Fund. |
The New Covenant Income Fund
The New Covenant Income Fund was up 11.72% for the 12 months through June 30, 2010, versus 8.72% for the Barclays Capital Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index1. The Fund benefited from relative outperformance of corporate and commercial mortgage backed securities (CMBS) [Note that CMBS is defined above as “corporate mortgage-back[ed] securities]and its relative underweight in Treasury securities. After completing the transition from one subadvisor to three in 2009, we are pleased with the Fund’s performance and reduced risk characteristics. We do not anticipate this degree of relative outperformance to continue.
Throughout the year, spreads generally continued to tighten as investors demonstrated an appetite for credit risk and incremental yield.
The Fund’s relative overweight in CMBS, while down significantly over the year, helped the Fund’s performance. The Fund’s CMBS weight declined from 21% on June 30, 2009, to 9% on June 30, 2010. The process of reducing CMBS exposure benefited the Fund as it was able to capture some of the return as these securities continued to rebound from their credit crisis lows.

The New Covenant Income Fund subadvisors2 are:
• | Baird Advisors, which is a core bond manager focused on high-quality, intermediate-term investments and a duration-neutral approach (relative to the benchmark). Baird managed 40% of the portfolio as of June 30, 2010. |
• | Earnest Partners LLC, which emphasizes investments, including non-Treasury AAA-rated intermediate-term securities, that have the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury and bonds that are backed by hard assets. At June 30, 2010, Earnest Partners managed 34% of the Fund. |
• | Sterling Capital Management, which invests in high quality, intermediate-term securities. Sterling will adjust their duration, sector- and credit-related weightings relative to the benchmark to pursue opportunities. Sterling managed 26% of the Fund at June 30, 2010. |
New Covenant Balanced Growth Fund
The New Covenant Balanced Growth Fund for the 12-months ended June 30, 2010, was up 11.43% versus 12.49% for its 60% S&P 500/40% Barclays Capital Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index1. Recently, the Advisor increased the allocation to equities by 250 basis points (or 2.5%) to target an allocation of approximately 62.5% stock and 37.5% bonds, what we consider a “non-neutral” position relative to this benchmark.
New Covenant Balanced Income Fund
The New Covenant Balanced Income Fund for the 12-months ended June 30, 2010, returned 11.31% versus 11.04% for its 40% S&P 500/60% Barclays Capital Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index1. Like the Balanced Growth Fund, the Balanced Income Fund recently increased its equity weighting by 250 basis points (or 2.5%) to target an allocation of approximately 37.5% stocks and 62.5% bonds, also a “non-neutral” position relative to this benchmark.
Serving you with a Faith-based Approach
Thank you for your continued commitment to the New Covenant Funds. As a manager of managers, we seek leading equity and fixed income investment managers focused on a variety of complementary strategies. We structure New Covenant Funds from a portfolio perspective in an effort to provide shareholders with returns that are commensurate with a high quality, intelligently-diversified investment. We are pleased to enable shareholders to address their long-term financial needs and goals in a manner consistent with their values and principles.
Sincerely,

1. Organization
New Covenant Funds (the “Trust”), an open-end, diversified management investment company, was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on September 30, 1998. It currently consists of four investment funds: New Covenant Growth Fund (“Growth Fund”), New Covenant Income Fund (“Income Fund”), New Covenant Balanced Growth Fund (“Balanced Growth Fund”), and New Covenant Balanced Income Fund (“Balanced Income Fund”), (individually, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”). The Funds commenced operations on July 1, 1999. The Trust’s authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest of $0.001 par value. The Funds’ investment adviser is One Compass Advisors, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) Foundation (the “Adviser”).
The objectives of the Funds are as follows:
Growth Fund | Long-term capital appreciation. Dividend income, if any, will be incidental. | |
Income Fund | High level of current income with preservation of capital. | |
Balanced Growth Fund | Capital appreciation with less risk than would be present in a portfolio of only common stocks. | |
Balanced Income Fund | Current income and long-term growth of capital. |
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The policies are in conformity with GAAP.
Portfolio Valuation: Fund investments are recorded at market value. Portfolio securities listed on a domestic or foreign exchange are valued at the last sale price on the day of valuation or, if there was no sale that day, at the last reported bid price as of the close of trading. Equity securities traded on NASDAQ use the official closing price. Equity securities which are traded in the over-the-counter market only, but which are not included on NASDAQ, are valued at the mean between the last preceding bid and ask prices. Debt securities with a remaining maturity of sixty days or more are valued using a pricing service using valuation methods such as matrix pricing as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. Debt securities with a remaining maturity of less than sixty days are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Open-end funds are valued at net asset value. Closed-end funds and exchange-traded funds are valued at market value. All other assets and securities with no readily determinable market values are valued using procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining fair value include but are not limited to: type of security or asset, fundamental analytical data relating to the investment in the security, evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the security is purchased and sold, and information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security. As of June 30, 2010, the Funds did not hold any securities for which market quotations were not readily available.
Foreign securities traded outside the United States are generally valued as of the time their trading is complete, which is usually different from the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Occasionally, events affecting the value of such securities may occur between such times and the close of the NYSE that will not be reflected in the security’s market value. If events materially affecting the value of such securities occur during such period, these securities will be valued at their fair value according to procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. All securities and other assets of a Fund initially expressed in foreign currencies will be converted to U.S. dollar values at the foreign exchange rate every business day, generally at 4:00 PM ET.
On January 21, 2010, the FASB Issued ASU 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, (formerly FASB Statement No. 157), to require additional disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Specifically, the amendment requires reporting entities to disclose i) the input and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, for Level 2 or Level 3 positions, ii) transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) will be required to be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e. transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in) as well as the reason(s) for the transfers and iii) purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be shown on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward rather than as one net number.
The effective date of this guidance is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009; however, the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Funds have disclosed the applicable requirements of this accounting standard in their financial statements.

The Funds follow a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and each Fund’s own market assumptions (unobservable inputs). There inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s investments and are summarized in the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, current discount rates, prepayment speeds, credit quality, yields for comparable securities, and trading volume).
Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of June 30, 2010, in valuing each Fund’s investments carried at fair value:

For the year ended June 30, 2010, there were no significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income: During the period, security transactions are accounted for no later than one business day following the trade date. For financial reporting purposes, however, security transactions are accounted for on trade date on the last business day of the reporting period. Securities sold are determined on a specific identification basis. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the amortization of premium or accretion of discount for both financial reporting and tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.
Options: The Income Fund may purchase or write options which are traded over-the-counter to hedge fluctuation risks in the prices of certain securities. When the Fund writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is reflected as a liability. The liability is subsequently “marked-to-market” to reflect the current market value of the option written. The premium paid by the Fund for the purchase of a call or put option is recorded as an investment and subsequently “marked-to-market” to reflect the current market value of the option purchased. The Fund is subject to the risk of an imperfect correlation between movement in the price of the option and the price of the underlying security. Risks may also arise due to illiquid secondary markets for the options. There were no options outstanding at June 30, 2010.
Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment valuation and other assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investments and income and expenses are converted into U.S. dollars based upon exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. That portion of unrealized gains or losses on investments due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
The Funds do not isolate the portion of gains and losses on investments in securities that is due to changes in the foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in the market prices of such securities. The Funds report gains and losses on foreign currency related transactions as realized and unrealized gains and losses for financial reporting purposes, whereas such gains and losses are treated as ordinary income or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Foreign Currency Forward Contracts: The Growth Fund may enter into foreign currency forward contracts as hedges against either specific transactions or portfolio positions. All commitments are “marked-to-market” daily at the applicable foreign exchange rate and any resulting unrealized gains or losses are recorded currently. The Fund realizes gains and losses at the time foreign currency forward contracts are extinguished. As of June 30, 2010, there were no foreign currency forward contracts open in the Fund.
Loans of Portfolio Securities: The Growth Fund and the Income Fund may lend their securities pursuant to a securities lending agreement (“Lending Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”). Security loans made pursuant to the Lending Agreement are required at all times to be secured by collateral valued at at least 102% of the market value of the securities loaned. Cash collateral received is invested by JPMorgan pursuant to the terms of the Lending Agreement. All such investments are made at the risk of the Funds and, as such, the Funds are liable for investment losses. To the extent a loan is secured by non-cash collateral, the borrower is required to pay a loan premium. Non-cash collateral received cannot be sold or repledged. Net income earned on the investment of cash collateral and loan premiums received on non-cash collateral are allocated between JPMorgan and the Funds in accordance with the Lending Agreement. Income allocated to the Funds is included in investment income in the respective Statements of Operations.
At June 30, 2010, the cash collateral received by the Growth Fund and the Income Fund was invested in a money market mutual fund, at the time of purchase; however, such investments are subject to risk of payment delays or default on the part of the issuer or counterparty or otherwise may not generate sufficient interest to support the costs associated with securities lending activities. The investments purchased with the cash collateral are valued daily based on the investment ’s prior day’s valuation, in connection with the calculation of the Growth Fund and Income Fund’s net asset value. A Fund could also experience delays in recovering its securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return the borrowed securities, although this risk is mitigated by the collateral and by the Lending Agreement. Information on the investment of cash collateral is shown in the Portfolios of Investments. The Growth Fund and the Income Fund receive payments from borrowers equivalent to the dividends and interest that would have been earned on the securities lent while simultaneously seeking to earn income on the investment cash collateral. One of the risks is that, from time to time, the cost of borrowing cash could exceed income generated from the securities in the reinvestment portfolio. There is also the risk that, when lending portfolio securities, the securities may not be available to a Fund on a timely basis and a Fund

may, therefore, lose the opportunity to sell the securities at a desirable price. In addition, in the event that a borrower of securities would file for bankruptcy or become insolvent, disposition of the securities may be delayed pending court action. However, loans will be made only to borrowers deemed by the Adviser to be creditworthy under guidelines established by the Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Adviser, the consideration which can be earned currently from such securities loans justifies the attendant risks. Loans are subject to termination by the Funds or the borrower at any time, and are, therefore, not considered to be illiquid investments.
The value of the loaned securities and related collateral at June 30, 2010, was as follows:
Value of | Value of | |||||||
Fund | Securities Loaned | Cash Collateral | ||||||
Growth Fund | $490,591 | $501,525 | ||||||
Income Fund | 1,209,361 | 1,241,175 | ||||||
All collateral received as cash and securities is received, held and administered by the Funds’ custodian for the benefit of the Funds in the applicable custody account or other account established for the purpose of holding collateral.
Repurchase Agreements: The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements which are secured by obligations of the U.S. government with a bank, broker-dealer or other financial institution. Each repurchase agreement is at least 102% collateralized and marked-to-market. However, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty to the repurchase agreement, realization of the collateral may by subject to certain costs, losses or delays. As of June 30, 2010, none of the Funds held repurchase agreements.
Forward Commitments, When-Issued Securities and Delayed-Delivery Transactions: The Growth Fund and the Income Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis and make contracts to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future date beyond customary settlement time. Debt securities are often issued on that basis. No income will accrue on securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis until the securities are delivered. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued, delayed-delivery of forward-commitment basis involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to settlement date. Although the Funds would generally purchase securities on a when-issued, delayed-delivery or forward-commitment basis with the intention of acquiring the securities, the Funds may dispose of such securities prior to settlement if the Adviser or applicable sub-advisor deems it appropriate to do so.
The Funds may dispose of or renegotiate a when-issued or forward commitment. The Funds will normally realize a capital gain or loss in connection with these transactions.
When the Funds purchase securities on a when-issued, delayed-delivery or forward-commitment basis, the Funds will maintain cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid portfolio securities having a value (determined daily) at least equal to the amount of the Funds’ purchase commitments. In the case of a forward commitment to sell portfolio securities, the custodian will hold the portfolio securities in a segregated account while the commitment is outstanding. These procedures are designed to ensure that the Funds will maintain sufficient assets at all times to cover their obligations under when-issued purchases, forward commitments and delayed-delivery transactions.
As of June 30, 2010, the Income Fund held one when-issued security with a market value of $2,714,295. The other Funds did not hold any when-issued securities.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders: Dividends from net investment income of all Funds are declared and paid quarterly. For all Funds, all net realized long-term or short-term capital gains, if any, will be declared and distributed at least annually.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income, gains and losses on various investment securities held by a Fund, timing differences in the recognition of income, gains and losses and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund.
These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassifications. To the extent that distributions exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as returns of capital.

Federal Income Taxes: It is each Fund’s intention to continue to qualify annually as a regulated investment company by complying with the appropriate provisions of sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has been made.
The Funds have reviewed the tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for each of the three open tax years and as of June 30, 2010, and have determined that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Foreign securities held by a Fund may be subject to foreign taxation on dividend and interest income received. Foreign taxes, if any, are recorded based on tax regulations and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which the Funds invest.
Allocation of Expenses: Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that Fund, while expenses which are attributable to more than one Fund of the Trust are allocated among the respective Funds based upon relative net assets or some other reasonable method.
3. Investment Advisory and Other Agreements
The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser. Under the Agreement, the Adviser is responsible for managing the Funds’ investments as well as furnishing the Funds with certain administrative services. The Growth Fund pays the Adviser a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.99% of the Growth Fund’s average daily net assets and the Income Fund pays the Adviser a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.75% of the Income Fund’s average daily net assets. The Adviser does not receive advisory fees for the Balanced Growth and Balanced Income Funds (the “Balanced Funds”). The Adviser has entered into Sub-Advisory Agreements with eight sub-advisors to assist in the selection and management of the Growth Fund’s and Income Fund’s investment securities. It is the responsibility of the Sub-Advisers, under the direction of the Adviser, to make day-to-day investment decisions for these Funds. The Adviser, not the Funds, pays each Sub-Adviser a quarterly fee for their services. The Adviser pays the Sub-Adviser’s fee directly from its own advisory fees. The sub-advisory fees are based on the assets of a Fund for which the Sub-Adviser is responsible for making investment decisions.
The following are the Sub-Advisers for the Growth Fund: Baillie Gifford Overseas, Ltd., Santa Barbara Asset Management Inc., Sound Shore Management Inc., TimesSquare Capital Management and Wellington Management Company, LLP.
The following are the Sub-Advisers for the Income Fund: Ernest Partners, LLC, Sterling Capital Management, LLC and Robert W. Baird & Company, Incorporated.
The Trust employs a Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) who receives a portion of her compensation as approved by the Board of Trustees, as well as reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. The CCO is also an employee of the Adviser. For the year ended June 30, 2010, the Growth Fund, the Income Fund, the Balanced Growth Fund, and the Balanced Income Fund were allocated a portion of the CCO’s compensation of $23,377, $12,331, $8,032 and $2,387, respectively.
The Trust is a party to Shareholder Services Agreements pursuant to which each Fund is authorized to make payments to certain entities which may include investment advisors, banks, trust companies and other types of organizations (“Authorized Service Providers”) for providing administrative services with respect to shares of the Funds attributable to or held in the name of the Authorized Service Provider for its clients or other parties with whom they have a servicing relationship. Under the terms of the Shareholder Services Agreements, each Fund is authorized to pay monthly an Authorized Service Provider (which may include affiliates of the Funds) a shareholder services fee at the rate of 0.25% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of the shares of the Fund attributable to or held in the name of the Authorized Service Provider for providing certain administrative services to Fund shareholders with whom the Authorized Service Provider has a servicing relationship. In connection with the Shareholder Services Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to waive all or a portion of the amount of the investment advisory fees payable to it by any Fund to the extent of the amount paid in fees by a Fund to any affiliated Authorized Service Provider under the Shareholder Services Agreements. Effective July 1, 2009 through October 31, 2010, the Adviser agrees to waive up to 0.17% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets for the Growth Fund, the Balanced Growth Fund and the Balanced Income Fund.

5. Risk Factors
The performance of a Fund’s investments in non-U.S. companies and in companies operating internationally or in foreign countries will depend principally on economic conditions in their product markets, the securities markets where their securities are traded, and currency exchange rates. These risks are present because of uncertainty in future exchange rates back into U.S. dollars and possible political instability, which could affect foreign financial markets and local economies. There are also risks related to social and economic developments abroad, as well as risks resulting from the differences between the regulations to which U.S. and foreign issuers and markets are subject.
The Funds will not invest more than 15% of the value of their net assets in securities that are illiquid because of restrictions on transferability or other reasons. Repurchase agreements with deemed maturities in excess of seven days are subject to this 15% limit. The Funds may purchase securities which are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) but which can be sold to “qualified institutional buyers” in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act. In some cases, such securities are classified as “illiquid securities;” however, any such security will not be considered illiquid so long as it is determined by the Adviser, under guidelines approved by the Board of Trustees, that an adequate trading market exists for that security. This investment practice could have the effect of increasing the level of illiquidity in a Fund during any period that qualified institutional buyers become uninterested in purchasing these restricted securities.

The Income Fund may invest a limited amount of assets in debt securities which are rated below investment grade (hereinafter referred to as “lower-rated securities”) or which are unrated but deemed equivalent to those rated below investment grade by the portfolio managers. The lower the ratings of such debt securities, the greater their risks. These debt instruments generally offer a higher current yield than that available from higher-grade issues, and typically involve greater risks. The yields on lower-rated securities will fluctuate over time. In general, prices of all bonds rise when interest rates fall and fall when interest rates rise. Lower-rated securities are subject to adverse changes in general economic conditions and to changes in the financial condition of their issuers. During periods of economic downturn or rising interest rates, issuers of these instruments may experience financial stress that could adversely affect their ability to make payments of principal and interest, and increase the possibility of default.
The Balanced Funds invest their assets primarily in the Growth Fund and the Income Fund. By investing primarily in shares of these Funds, shareholders of the Balanced Funds indirectly pay a portion of the operating expenses, management expenses and brokerage costs of the underlying Funds as well as their own operating expenses. Thus, shareholders of the Balanced Funds may indirectly pay slightly higher total operating expenses and other costs than they would pay by directly owning shares of the Growth Fund and Income Fund. Total fees and expenses to be borne by investors in either Balanced Fund will depend on the portion of the Funds’ assets invested in the Growth Fund and in the Income Fund. A change in the asset allocation of either Balanced Fund could increase or reduce the fees and expenses actually borne by investors in that Fund. The Balanced Funds are also subject to rebalancing risk. Rebalancing activities, while undertaken to maintain a Fund’s investment risk-to-reward ratio, may cause the Fund to under-perform other funds with similar investment objectives. For the Balanced Growth Fund, it is possible after rebalancing from equities into a greater percentage of fixed-income securities, that equities will outperform fixed-income investments. For the Balanced Income Fund, it is possible that after rebalancing from fixed-income securities into a greater percentage of equity securities, that fixed-income securities will outperform equity investments. The performance of the Balanced Growth Fund and the Balanced Income Fund depends on the performance of the underlying Funds in which they invest.
6. Distribution Information

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders
of the New Covenant Funds:
of the New Covenant Funds:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of the New Covenant Funds (comprised of New Covenant Growth Fund, New Covenant Income Fund, New Covenant Balanced Growth Fund, and New Covenant Balanced Income Fund) (collectively the “Funds”), as of June 30, 2010, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in 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. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2010, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective portfolios constituting the New Covenant Funds at June 30, 2010, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Approval of the Continuation of the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements
The current Investment Advisory Agreement for the New Covenant Funds (the “Funds” or the “Trust”), certain of the Sub-Advisory Agreements for the New Covenant Growth Fund (those with Santa Barbara Asset Management, LLC, Sound Shore Management, Inc., TimesSquare Capital Management, LLC and Wellington Management Company, LLC) and all of the Sub-Advisory Agreements for the New Covenant Income Fund (collectively, the “Agreements”) were most recently re-approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust on May 16-17, 2010, for a one-year period ending June 30, 2011. Relevant provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) specifically provide that it is the duty of the Board to request and evaluate such information as the Board determines is reasonably necessary to allow the Board to properly consider the continuation of the Agreements, and it is the duty of the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers to furnish the Trustees with such information as is responsive to their request. Accordingly, in determining whether to renew the Agreements, the Board of Trustees requested, and the Adviser and the applicable Sub-Advisers provided, information and data relevant to the Board’s consideration. This included materials regarding the investment performance of the Funds and information regarding the fees and expenses of the Funds, as compared to other similar mutual funds, including other mutual funds having socially responsible investment (“SRI”) mandates. As part of their deliberations, the Trustees also considered and relied upon the information about the Funds, the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers that had been provided to them throughout the past year in connection with their regular Board meetings at which they engage in the ongoing oversight of the Funds and their operations. The Independent Trustees discussed the materials prior to the May 16-17, 2010 Board meeting as well as in an executive session during the meeting. During this process the Independent Trustees were counseled by their own independent legal counsel (as such term is defined in the rules under the 1940 Act).
Among the factors the Board considered was the overall performance of each Fund and each applicable Sub-Adviser relative to the performance of similar mutual funds in each Fund’s peer group and relative to applicable benchmark indexes on a long-term basis and over shorter periods of time. The Board took note of the fact that the performance results achieved for the Funds were favorable as compared to other SRI Funds on both a short-term and on a long-term basis and that the Adviser produced these results in a manner consistent with the stated investment objective and policies of each of the Funds. The Board considered the contribution made by each applicable Sub-Adviser to the short-term and, as relevant, long-term performance. When considering the performance of the portion of the Growth Fund managed by Capital Guardian Trust Company, the Board also noted the Adviser’s recommendation that the sub-adviser be replaced by Baillie Gifford Overseas Ltd. (“Baillie Gifford”), and the Board thus determined not to re-approve this Sub-Advisory Agreement but instead considered a new sub-advisory agreement with Baillie Gifford, as described below. The Board also considered that while the performance of the Income Fund for certain periods reflected performance that trailed the performance of its applicable benchmark index, the Adviser had taken action in 2008 to replace the former sub-adviser to the Income Fund and retain three new Sub-Advisers for the Income Fund effective January 1, 2009. The Board also took note of the long-term relationship between the Adviser and the Funds and the efforts that have been undertaken by the Adviser to foster the growth and development of the Funds since their inception.
In connection with its consideration of the continuation of the Agreement with the Adviser, the Board compared the expenses of each of the Funds to the expenses of their peers, based on data compiled by an independent source. The Board noted the range of investment advisory and administrative services provided by the Adviser to the Funds and the nature, extent and quality of these services. The Board also reviewed financial information concerning the Adviser relating to its operation of the Funds, noting the overall profitability of the relationship with the Funds to the Adviser and the financial status of the Adviser as demonstrated by the financial information provided. In addition, the Board discussed with the Adviser economies of scale that could be realized by the Funds and the impact of potential economies of scale on the fees assessed on the Growth and Income Funds. The Board reviewed the fees charged by the Adviser to its other investment advisory clients and the Board took into consideration the different types of services that the Adviser provides to the Funds as compared to other managed accounts when considering the different level of fees charged by the Adviser in connection with the Funds. The members of the Board also considered the fact that the Adviser currently makes available the services of its subsidiary New Covenant Funds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”) to serve as the distributor of the shares of each of the Funds and they noted that the Adviser bears all of the costs of the distribution services for the Funds that are provided by the Distributor. The Board also took note of the fact that the Distributor continued to undertake efforts to expand the marketing of the Funds and to provide for expanded distribution of the Funds at no direct cost to the Funds. The Trustees considered the services performed by the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (who is an employee of the Adviser), particularly in connection with the oversight of the Sub-Advisers; the services provided by the Adviser in managing the Funds’ proxy voting program; and other additional services provided by the Adviser to the Funds, and concluded that the shareholders continue to benefit from these additional services under the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser. The Board also discussed the function of the Adviser’s Social Witness Committee of its board to raise the visibility and importance of the social responsibility aspect of investing the Funds’ portfolios, and the Adviser’s participation on the Mission Responsibility Through Investment Committee of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) Foundation.
In connection with their review of each of the applicable Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees considered, in addition to the performance information discussed above, the Sub-Advisers’ adherence to the Funds’ investment objectives and policies, the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer’s favorable compliance report on each applicable Sub-Adviser and the fees charged by the Sub-Advisers to other clients as compared to the fees they receive from the Adviser. While the Board considered financial information regarding each applicable Sub-Adviser, it did not consider information as to the profitability of each Sub-Advisory Agreement to the relevant

Sub-Adviser in every instance, since the fees payable to the Sub-Advisers had been negotiated at arm’s length and were paid by the Adviser. The Board members considered the soft dollar practices of certain of the Sub-Advisers to the Growth Fund and they noted that those Sub-Advisers that do engage in soft dollar transactions with respect to portfolio transactions for the Growth Fund do so in a manner that is consistent with industry practice within the mutual fund industry and also consistent with relevant regulatory guidance and that these transactions reflect a small portion of the overall portfolio trading done for the Growth Fund.
In reaching their conclusion with respect to the continuation of the Agreements, the Trustees did not identify any one single factor as being controlling; rather, the Trustees took note of a combination of factors that influenced their decision-making process. The Board did, however, identify the performance of the Funds, the commitment of the Adviser to the successful operation of the Funds, and the level of expenses of the Funds as being important elements of their consideration. The Board took particular note of the performance of each Fund compared to that of similar SRI funds. The Board also took particular note of the unique duties that the Adviser undertakes in order to assure that the Funds are invested in a manner that is consistent with the social-witness principles of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). The Board further considered the fact that the Adviser had again undertaken during the year to waive its investment advisory fees to the extent of the amount of shareholder services fees paid by the Income Fund during the year, and waive a portion of its investment advisory fees or reimburse a portion of the shareholder services fee for the Growth and Balanced Funds during the year, in order to limit the overall operating expenses of the Funds. The Board also took into consideration the fact that the Adviser manages the Funds under a “manager of managers” arrangement pursuant to which the Adviser is responsible for the ongoing oversight of the investment program of each of the Sub-Advisers with respect to their management of the Funds, and the Board noted the significant efforts made by the Adviser during the last two years in this regard and determined that the Adviser has continued to successfully implement the “manager of managers” program for the Funds in a manner that has been beneficial to the Funds and their shareholders.
Based upon their review and consideration of these factors and other matters deemed relevant by the Board in reaching an informed business judgment, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, concluded that the terms of the Advisory Agreement and the applicable Sub-Advisory Agreements are fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and the Board therefore voted to renew the Agreements for an additional one-year period.
Approval of New Sub-Advisory Agreement for the New Covenant Growth Fund
In addition to the annual contract renewal process described above for each of the Funds, at the May 16-17, 2010 meeting, the Board of Trustees was also called upon to take action with respect to the approval of a new Sub-Advisory Agreement (the “New Sub-Advisory Agreement”) relating to the Growth Fund with Baillie Gifford.
As discussed more fully above with respect to the annual contract renewal process, the relevant provisions of the 1940 Act specifically provide that it is the duty of the Board to request and evaluate such information as the Board determines is reasonably necessary to allow the Board to properly consider the adoption of any new sub-advisory agreements with respect to a Fund, and it is the duty of the Adviser and any sub-advisers to furnish the Trustees with such information as is responsive to their request. Accordingly, in determining whether to approve the New Sub-Advisory Agreement with Baillie Gifford, the Board of Trustees requested, and the Adviser and Baillie Gifford provided, information and data relevant to the Board’s consideration. This included materials regarding the investment performance of accounts managed by Baillie Gifford and information regarding the fees and expenses of the Fund, as compared to other similar mutual funds, including other mutual funds having SRI mandates. During this process the Independent Trustees were counseled by their own independent legal counsel (as such term is defined in the rules under the 1940 Act).
At the meeting of the Trust’s Board held on May 16-17, 2010, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, approved the New Sub-Advisory Agreement with Baillie Gifford for the Growth Fund. At this meeting, the Board reviewed the information and materials regarding Baillie Gifford, including its prior investment performance, its proposed portfolio management process and its proposed level of fees. The Board also considered the nature, quality and extent of the services to be provided by Baillie Gifford. Apart from the fees payable under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the commencement date, the terms and conditions of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement with Baillie Gifford are generally similar in all material respects to those of the Sub-Advisory Agreements with the other current sub-advisers to the Growth Fund, which the Board reviewed and re-approved, as described above, at the same meeting.
In connection with their review of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees considered, in addition to the performance and other information discussed above, the compliance report submitted by the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer on Baillie Gifford and noted that the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer had conducted an on-site visit of Baillie Gifford. In addition, the Trustees took into consideration the fees charged by Baillie Gifford to other clients as compared to the fees to be received from the Adviser with respect to the Growth Fund. The Board noted the fact that the fees payable to Baillie Gifford had been negotiated at arm’s length and were to be paid by the Adviser from the investment advisory fee that it receives from the Growth Fund. The Board also considered the brokerage practices of Baillie Gifford and found them to be in accordance with relevant industry practices and applicable regulatory requirements.

In reaching their conclusion with respect to the approval of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any one single factor as being controlling; rather, the Trustees took note of a combination of factors that influenced their decision-making process. The Board did, however, identify the favorable prior performance results of Baillie Gifford and the recommendation of the Adviser’s independent consultant as being important elements of their consideration.
Based upon their review and consideration of these factors and other matters deemed relevant by the Board in reaching an informed business judgment, the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, concluded that the terms of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement were fair and reasonable in light of the services to be provided and the Board therefore voted to approve the New Sub-Advisory Agreement. As a result of the Board’s determination, Baillie Gifford became a sub-adviser to the Growth Fund effective July 1, 2010.

Item 2. Code of Ethics.
The registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer. The registrant has not made any amendments to its code of ethics during the period covered by this report. The registrant has not granted any waivers from any provisions of the code of ethics during the period covered by this report.
A copy of the registrant’s Code of Ethics is filed herewith. See Item 12(a)(1).
Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.
The registrant’s board of directors has determined that there is at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. William Lauderbach is the “audit committee financial expert” and is considered to be “independent” as each term is defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR.
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
The registrant has engaged its principal accountant to perform audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services during the past two fiscal years. “Audit services” refer to performing an audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years. “Audit-related services” refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit. “Tax services” refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. There were no “Other services” provided by the principal accountant. The following table details the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed for each of the last two fiscal years for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees by the principal accountant.

All Other Fees | $ | 0 | $ | 0 |
The audit committee has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures that require the audit committee to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services of the registrant, including services provided to any entity affiliated with the registrant.
All of the principal accountant’s hours spent on auditing the registrant’s financial statements were attributed to work performed by full-time permanent employees of the principal accountant. (If more than 50 percent of the accountant’s hours were spent to audit the registrant’s financial
1
statements for the most recent fiscal year, state how many hours were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.) The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the registrant’s accountant for services to the registrant and to the registrant’s investment adviser (and any other controlling entity, etc.—not sub-adviser) for the last two years. The audit committee of the board of trustees/directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant’s independence.
