Karla M. Rabusch,
President
Wells Fargo Advantage Funds
There certainly were a rash of geopolitical and geological issues that provided headwinds, but overall, many areas across both the global equity and bond markets showed resilience and posted solid annual returns.
Dear Valued Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide you with this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Advantage International Stock Funds for the six-month period that ended April 30, 2011. After a series of extraordinary financial and economic events that affected the financial markets in the United States and throughout the world—dating back to the beginning of the financial crisis in 2008—it seemed the global economy continued to move toward a more sustainable recovery throughout the period. There certainly were a rash of geopolitical and geological issues that provided headwinds, but overall, many areas across both the global equity and bond markets showed resilience and posted solid annual returns, suggesting that the most underlying fundamentals of the economy continue to strengthen.
The global economic recovery moved toward expansion.
The global economic recovery that began in mid-2009, especially within the developed countries, gained further momentum throughout the period, particularly toward the end of 2010. For example, within the U.S., gross domestic product (GDP) grew at an annualized rate of 3.1% in the fourth quarter of 2010—capping a streak of six consecutive quarters of positive GDP growth—and 2.8% for the full year. Although the path of recovery within the U.S. has been uneven at times and growth remains subpar compared with previous recoveries, the general consensus among economists is that the economy will likely continue to move toward a sustainable expansion.
Jobs and housing remained troublesome.
By the end of the reporting period, the unemployment rate in the U.S. stood at 9.0%, down from 9.8% a year earlier but still notably higher than historical averages. Unfortunately, the drop may be more attributable to a decline in the labor force than to a meaningful uptick in hiring. In fact, employers added just 1.1 million jobs during the entire 2010 calendar year, below the historical average of 1.4 million jobs created each year over the past 80 years, suggesting that the improving economy has yet to translate into widespread hiring. Meanwhile, the beleaguered housing market was an ongoing source of concern, despite some tentative late-year signs of stabilization. That said, persistent weakness in the labor and housing markets bears close watching in the months ahead.
Other economic data in the U.S. was more encouraging, reflecting greater confidence in the sustainability of the expansion on the part of both consumers and businesses. Retail sales came in strong at certain points during the period, including the critical holiday shopping season, and industrial production and new orders have picked up. Although still reluctant to hire, businesses have gradually increased spending in other areas, such as equipment and technology. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, remained benign.
The Federal Reserve continued to do its part.
With inflation subdued, the Federal Reserve (Fed) held its target range for the federal funds rate—a proxy for short-term interest rates—steady at 0.00% to 0.25%. On April 27, 2011, in its final statement of the six-month period, the Fed noted that economic recovery “is proceeding at a moderate pace,” while the employment situation is “improving gradually.” With regard to inflation, the Fed noted that the rate of inflation increased but that “longer-term inflation
| | | | | | |
Letter to Shareholders | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Stock Funds | | | 3 | |
expectations have remained stable and measures of underlying inflation are still subdued.” As a result, the Fed indicated that it intends to keep short-term rates at historically low levels for as long as necessary to ensure a sustainable recovery and expansion.
The Fed also stated that “to promote a stronger pace of economic recovery,” it plans to proceed with other stimulus measures, including its second round of quantitative easing (QE2)—a plan to purchase $600 billion in long-term Treasury securities by mid-2011. The launch of QE2 in the third quarter of 2010 marked a turning point for the equity markets in that it ushered in a favorable shift in investor sentiment. Largely, investors interpreted the plan as further evidence of the Fed’s commitment to avoiding deflation and spurring economic growth.
Central banks focused on balancing the need for sustainable growth with ongoing sovereign debt concerns.
The coordinated efforts of the developed markets’ central banks to quell the worldwide financial crisis were effective in restoring order to the capital markets, and the stimulus packages provided a significant underpinning to economies, helping to restore them to growth. As a result, throughout the six-month period, stock markets in the United States and worldwide rebounded dramatically from their March 2009 lows.
While many emerging markets were not as affected by the same problems as the U.S. and eurozone economies, several emerging economies did face headwinds of their own, such as higher levels inflation and tightening monetary policies. This dynamic was most evident in China and India, which were among the poorer performing countries within the index. The best performing countries within the emerging markets index included Russia, which benefitted from rising energy prices; Taiwan and Korea, whose performance was driven by strong export activity; and South Africa, which was supported by rising commodity prices throughout the period.
After working through the eurozone sovereign debt crisis, equities rallied for the rest of 2010.
After the global equity markets stumbled during the late spring of 2010, primarily due to concerns that the global economic recovery would slide back into recession, but also in part due to the Greek sovereign debt crisis, the markets rebounded during the summer and fall of 2010. Part of the explanation for the rally lies in the precarious nature of the markets after the second quarter. By the start of the third quarter, investors had already priced in the potential effects of the sovereign debt crisis. The repricing reduced stock valuations to extremely attractive levels. When combined with earnings yields that were better than what investors were getting in the bond market, the lowered valuations were enough to convince many investors to add more risk to their portfolios. Stocks in the higher-yielding telecommunication services sector advanced due to their ability to balance risk and potential yield, driving investors back into the markets.
The coordinated efforts of the developed markets’ central banks to quell the worldwide financial crisis were effective in restoring order to the capital markets, and the stimulus packages provided a significant underpinning to economies, helping to restore them to growth.

During the last three months of 2010, investors continued to struggle with a number of macroeconomic factors, most notably the continuing sovereign debt crisis in Europe and rising inflation in the emerging markets. On the plus side, the U.S. economy continued to show signs of improvement. The reaffirmation of quantitative easing by the Fed initially caused the value of the U.S. dollar to decline relative to other major currencies; however, it stabilized during the final month of the year.
Entering the new year, central banks attempted to balance growth with inflation pressures.
2011 began moderately well, building on the momentum established during the fourth quarter of 2010. Investors focused on signs of sustainable economic growth and low volatility in many countries. In step with stronger economic conditions, corporate earnings continued to improve, further bolstering investor confidence. However, during the period, investors shifted their focus away from these developments to the political unrest in the Middle East and the tragedy affecting Japan, which prompted concerns about the impact on oil prices and the supply chain. In response, investors began to rotate out of small-cap stocks and growth stocks and into larger-cap value stocks that they perceived as offering lower levels of risk.
In the developed markets, Europe and the U.S. are good examples of how many countries are attempting to balance the effects of higher inflation with the need to firmly establish sustainable economic expansion. These governments believe that this can best be achieved through an exceptionally accommodative monetary policy. In an effort to stave off the effects of rising inflation, China, India, and Brazil have already been tightening their monetary policies through rate increases and a more restrictive approach to money supply. It is possible that if the rate of inflation in those emerging markets countries begins to stabilize or even subside, particularly in China, these countries may be nearing the end of their monetary tightening cycle.
Concerns about sovereign debt re-emerged across the European peripheral countries, especially as Portugal became the third country to seek a bailout from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund. In addition, Ireland’s four largest banks failed another round of stress tests in March, forcing them to seek another 24 billion euros from public and private entities. Nevertheless, in spite of these renewed challenges, the peripheral countries, led by Greece, Italy, and Spain, had remarkable stock performance to start 2011. They outperformed their larger, more developed European neighbors, such as Germany and the United Kingdom. Last year, when the sovereign debt issue first came to the forefront, it brought along with it a high level of investor anxiety, which translated into higher volatility. However, after the bailouts of Greece and Ireland, investors may have become comfortable with how policymakers have been able to handle these problems and mitigate the risks of contagion.
A broadly diversified portfolio gives exposure to many areas of potential recovery.
As global economies continue to move toward more sustainable growth and manageable levels of inflation, there can still be moments of volatility. These periods can present both challenges and opportunities, and experience has

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance shown without sales charges would be lower if sales charges were reflected. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s Web site – www.wellsfargo.com/advantagefunds.
Index returns do not include transaction costs associated with buying and selling securities, any mutual fund fees or expenses or any taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
For Class A shares, the maximum front-end sales charge is 5.75%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including sales charge assumes the sales charge for the corresponding time period. Administrator Class, Institutional Class and Investor Class shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.
Stock fund values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Foreign investments are especially volatile and can rise or fall dramatically due to differences in the political and economic conditions of the host country. These risks are generally intensified in emerging markets. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). This Fund is exposed to regional risk, and smaller company securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks.
3. | Historical performance shown for Class A shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Investor Class shares, and includes the higher expenses applicable to the Investor Class shares. If these expenses had not been included, returns would be higher. Historical performance shown for Class C shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Investor Class shares, adjusted to reflect the higher expenses applicable to Class C shares. Historical performance shown for the Administrator and Institutional Class shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Class A shares, and includes the higher expenses applicable to the Class A shares. If these expenses had not been included, returns would be higher. |

5. | The Adviser has committed through February 29, 2012 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver, excluding certain expenses, at 1.60% for Class A, 2.35% for Class C, 1.40% for Administrator Class, 1.25% for Institutional Class and 1.65% for Investor Class. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. |

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance shown without sales charges would be lower if sales charges were reflected. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s Web site – www.wellsfargo.com/advantagefunds.
Index returns do not include transaction costs associated with buying and selling securities, any mutual fund fees or expenses or any taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
For Class A shares, the maximum front-end sales charge is 5.75%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including sales charge assumes the sales charge for the corresponding time period. Administrator Class and Institutional Class shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.
Stock fund values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Foreign investments are especially volatile and can rise or fall dramatically due to differences in the political and economic conditions of the host country. These risks are generally intensified in emerging markets. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). This Fund is exposed to country concentration risk and smaller company securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks.

Stock fund values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Foreign investments are especially volatile and can rise or fall dramatically due to differences in the political and economic conditions of the host country. These risks are generally intensified in emerging markets. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). This Fund is exposed to smaller company securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks.

20 | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Stock Funds | | Fund Expenses |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, redemption fees (if any) and exchange fees (if any); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder service fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is in tended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2010 to April 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses
The “Actual” line of the table below provides in formation about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. 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 in the “Actual” line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” for your applicable class of shares to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetic al Example for Comparison Purposes
The “Hypothetical” line of the table below provides in formation about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the “Hypothetical” line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1. ORGANIZATION
Wells Fargo Funds Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust organized on March 10, 1999, is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). These financial statements report on the following funds: Wells Fargo Advantage Asia Pacific Fund (“Asia Pacific Fund”), Wells Fargo Advantage Disciplined Global Equity Fund (“Disciplined Global Equity Fund”), Wells Fargo Advantage Diversified International Fund (“Diversified International Fund”), Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund (“Emerging Markets Equity Fund”), Wells Fargo Advantage Global Opportunities Fund (“Global Opportunities Fund”), Wells Fargo Advantage International Equity Fund (“International Equity Fund”) and Wells Fargo Advantage Intrinsic World Equity Fund (“Intrinsic World Equity Fund”) (each, a “Fund”, collectively, the “Funds”). Each Fund is a diversified series of the Trust.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of the financial statements of each Fund, are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Securities valuation
Investments in securities are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, which is usually 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). Securities which are traded on a national or foreign securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price, except that securities listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”) are valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), and if no NOCP is available, then at the last reported sales price. If no sales price is shown on the Nasdaq, the bid price will be used. In the absence of any sale of securities listed on the Nasdaq, and in the case of other securities, including U.S. Government obligations, but excluding debt securities maturing in 60 days or less, the price will be deemed “stale” and the valuations will be determined in accordance with the Funds’ Fair Value Procedures.
Securities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the closing rates of exchange in effect on the day of valuation.
Many securities markets and exchanges outside the U.S. close prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange and therefore may not fully reflect trading or events that occur after the close of the principal exchange in which the foreign investments are traded but before the close of the New York Stock Exchange. If such trading or events are expected to materially affect the value of the investments, then those investments are fair valued following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. These procedures take into account multiple factors including movements in U.S. securities markets after foreign exchanges close. Depending on market activity, such fair valuations may be frequent. Such fair value pricing may result in NAVs that are higher or lower than NAVs based on the closing price or latest quoted bid price.
Investments in open-end mutual funds and non-registered investment companies are generally valued at net asset value.
Certain investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above, are valued at their fair value, as determined by procedures established in good faith and approved by the Board of Trustees.
The valuation techniques used by the Funds to measure fair value are consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach, where applicable, for each security type.
Foreign currency translation
The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets, including investment securities, and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually paid or received. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities resulting in changes in exchange rates.
| | | | | | |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Stock Funds | | | 87 | |
The changes in net assets arising from changes in exchange rates and the changes in net assets resulting from changes in market prices of securities are not separately presented. Such changes are recorded with net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Gains and losses from certain foreign currency transactions are treated as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Forward foreign currency contracts
Certain Funds may be subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund enters into forward foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities and to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. Forward foreign currency contracts are recorded at the forward rate and marked-to-market daily. When the contracts are closed, realized gains and losses arising from such transactions are recorded as realized gains or losses on forward foreign currency contract transactions. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the unrealized gains or losses on the contracts. This risk is mitigated by having a master netting arrangement between the Fund and the counterparty.
Security loans
The Funds may lend their securities from time to time in order to earn additional income in the form of fees or interest on securities received as collateral or the investment of any cash received as collateral. A Fund continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. A Fund receives collateral in the form of cash or securities with a value at least equal to the value of the securities on loan. The value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of each business day and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the borrower, a Fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the loaned securities or in gaining access to the collateral. In addition, the investment of any cash collateral received may lose all or part of its value. The Fund has the right under the lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand.
The Funds lend their securities through an unaffiliated securities lending agent. Cash collateral received in connection with their securities lending transactions is invested in Wells Fargo Securities Lending Cash Investments, LLC (the “Cash Collateral Fund”). The Cash Collateral Fund is exempt from registration under Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act and is managed by Wells Fargo Funds Management LLC (“Funds Management”) and is sub-advised by Wells Capital Management Incorporated (“Wells Capital Management”). Funds Management receives an advisory fee starting at 0.05% and declining to 0.01% as the average daily net assets of the Cash Collateral Fund increase. All of the fees received by Funds Management are paid to Wells Capital Management for its services as sub-adviser. The Cash Collateral Fund seeks to provide a positive return compared to the daily Fed Funds Open rate by investing in high-quality, U.S. dollar-denominated short-term money market instruments. Cash Collateral Fund investments are fair valued based upon the amortized cost valuation technique. Income earned from investment in the Cash Collateral Fund is included in securities lending income on the Statements of Operations.
Futures contracts
Certain Funds may be subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Funds may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against changes in, security values and interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between changes in market values of securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.
Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices when available. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the financial statements. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Statements of Operations as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts are closed, at which point they are recorded as net realized gains or losses on futures contracts. With futures contracts, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

Security transactions and income recognition
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities delivered.
Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Dividend income from foreign securities is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is not assured.
Distributions to shareholders
Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in conformity with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Federal and other taxes
Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its investment company taxable income and any net realized capital gains (after reduction for capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was required.
Each Fund’s income and federal excise tax returns and all financial records supporting those returns for the prior three fiscal years are subject to examination by the federal and Delaware revenue authorities.
At October 31, 2010, estimated net capital loss carryforwards, which are available to offset future net realized capital gains, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Expiration | |
| | 2016 | | | 2017 | | | 2018 | |
Asia Pacific Fund | | $ | 90,181,236 | | | $ | 80,817,204 | | | $ | 0 | |

Diversified International Fund | | | 16,110,795 | | | | 95,119,882 | | | | 0 | |
Emerging Markets Equity Fund | | | 25,750,716 | | | | 22,695,719 | | | | 0 | |

Intrinsic World Equity | | | 0 | | | | 13,228,770 | | | | 1,273,005 | |
Under the recently enacted Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Funds will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by each Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing and administration fees. Shareholders of each class bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of a Fund, earn income from the portfolio, and are allocated unrealized gains and losses pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocable to each class. Realized gains and losses are allocated to each class pro rata based upon the net assets of each class on the date realized. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from the relative weightings of pro rata income and realized gain allocations and from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees.

3. FAIR VALUATION MEASUREMENTS
Fair value measurements of investments are determined within a framework that has established a fair value hierarchy based upon the various data inputs utilized in determining the value of each Fund’s investments. The three-level hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Each Fund’s investments are classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs are summarized into three broad levels as follows:
n | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
n | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
n | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
As of April 30, 2011, the inputs used in valuing each Fund’s assets, which are carried at fair value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Investments in Securities | | Quoted Prices (Level 1) | | | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) | | | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) | | | Total | |

7. ACQUISITIONS
After the close of business on July 16, 2010, Emerging Markets Equity Fund (formerly Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund II) acquired the net assets of Evergreen Emerging Markets Growth Fund and Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund. The purpose of the transactions was to combine three funds with similar investment objectives and strategies. The acquisitions were accomplished by a tax-free exchange of all of the shares of Evergreen Emerging Markets Growth Fund and Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund. Shareholders holding Class A, Class B and Class C shares of Evergreen Emerging Markets Growth Fund and Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund received Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, of Emerging Markets Equity Fund in the reorganizations. Class I shares of Evergreen Emerging Markets Growth Fund received Administrator Class shares of Emerging Markets Equity Fund. Administrator Class shares of Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund received Administrator Class shares of Emerging Markets Equity Fund. The investment portfolio of Evergreen Emerging Markets Growth Fund and Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund with fair values of $940,934,846 and $104,854,236, respectively, and identified costs of $794,372,539 and $105,814,107, respectively, at July 16, 2010, were the principal assets acquired by Emerging Markets Equity Fund. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Emerging Markets Equity Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from Evergreen Emerging Markets Growth Fund and Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund were carried forward to align ongoing reporting of Emerging Markets Equity Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. The value of net assets acquired, unrealized gains/losses acquired, exchange ratio and number of shares issued were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Acquired Fund | | Value of Net Assets Acquired | | | Unrealized Gains (Losses) | | | Exchange Ratio | | | Number of Shares Issued |
Evergreen Emerging Markets Growth Fund | | $ | 942,448,909 | | | $ | 146,562,307 | | | | 1.00 | | | | 28,326,028 | | | Class A |
| | | | | | | | | | | 1.00 | | | | 1,563,012 | | | Class B |
| | | | | | | | | | | 1.00 | | | | 9,580,034 | | | Class C |
| | | | | | | | | | | 1.00 | | | | 12,984,854 | | | Administrator Class |
Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund | | $ | 140,035,923 | | | $ | (959,871 | ) | | | 1.86 | | | | 6,401,149 | | | Class A |
| | | | | | | | | | | 2.04 | | | | 178,594 | | | Class B |
| | | | | | | | | | | 2.05 | | | | 120,371 | | | Class C |
| | | | | | | | | | | 1.78 | | | | 954,372 | | | Administrator Class |
The aggregate net assets of Emerging Markets Equity Fund immediately after the acquisitions were $1,082,484,832.
Assuming the acquisitions had been completed November 1, 2009, the beginning of the annual reporting period for Emerging Markets Equity Fund, the pro forma results of operations for the year ended October 31, 2010 would have been
| | | | |
Net investment income (loss) | | $ | 1,886,861 | |
Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments | | $ | 253,695,622 | |
Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations | | $ | 255,582,483 | |
Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of Evergreen Emerging Markets Growth Fund and Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Markets Equity Fund that have been included in Emerging Markets Equity Fund’s Statement of Operations since July 19, 2010.
Effective at the close of business on July 16, 2010, Wells Fargo Advantage International Core Fund acquired the net assets of Evergreen International Equity Fund. Wells Fargo Advantage International Core Fund was renamed Wells Fargo Advantage International Equity Fund after the reorganization and became the legal survivor in the transaction. Evergreen International Equity Fund became the accounting and performance survivor in the transaction. The purpose of the transaction was to combine 2 funds with similar investment objectives and strategies. The acquisition was accomplished
by a tax-free exchange of all of the shares of Evergreen International Equity Fund. Shareholders holding Class A, Class B,
| | | | |

Class C, Class I and Class R shares of Evergreen International Equity Fund received Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional Class and Class R shares, respectively, of the International Equity Fund in the reorganization. The exchange ratio and number of shares issued to the Evergreen International Equity Fund were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Acquired Fund | | Value of Net Assets Acquired | | | Unrealized Gains | | | Exchange Ratio | | | Number of Shares Issued |

| | | | | | | | | | | 0.71 | | | | 444,042 | | | Class R |
The investment portfolio of the International Equity Fund with a fair value of $3,465,243, identified cost of $3,076,152 and unrealized appreciation of $389,091 at July 16, 2010 were the principal assets acquired by the accounting and performance survivor. The shares and net assets of the International Equity Fund immediately prior to the acquisition were 388,539 and $3,445,411, respectively. The aggregate net assets of Evergreen International Equity Fund immediately prior to the acquisition was $628,217,626. The aggregate net assets of the International Equity Fund immediately after the acquisition were $631,663,037. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by International Equity Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from International Equity Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of International Equity Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
Assuming the acquisition had been completed November 1, 2009, the beginning of the annual reporting period for International Equity Fund, the pro forma results of operations for the year ended October 31, 2010 would have been:
| | | | |
Net investment income (loss) | | $ | 7,904,908 | |

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the International Equity Fund that have been included in the Statement of Operations since July 19, 2010.
8. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $125,000,000 revolving credit agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company, whereby the Funds are permitted to use bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes, such as to fund shareholder redemption requests. Interest under the credit agreement is charged to each Fund based on a borrowing rate equal to the higher of the Federal Funds rate in effect on that day plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR rate in effect on that day plus 1.25%. In addition, under the credit agreement, the Funds pay an annual commitment fee equal to 0.125% of the unused balance, which is allocated pro rata.
During the six months ended April 30, 2011, the Funds had the following borrowing activity:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Average Borrowings Outstanding | | | Weighted Average Interest Rate (annualized) | | | Interest Paid | |
Asia Pacific Fund | | $ | 50,743 | | | | 1.48 | % | | $ | 751 | |
International Equity Fund | | | 227,867 | | | | 1.50 | | | | 3,418 | |
9. REGULATORY SETTLEMENT PROCEEDS
During the year ended October 31, 2010, Disciplined Global Equity received $2,080,711 due to the settlement of administrative proceedings against an unaffiliated third party involving findings by the Securities and Exchange Commission of market timing activity in certain mutual funds. The settlement proceeds received are recorded as an increase to paid-in capital in the financial statements of Disciplined Global Equity Fund contained herein.

10. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts with service providers that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be estimated.
11. REORGANIZATION
At a regular meeting of the Board of Trustees held on May 18-19, 2011, the Trustees approved the reorganization of Disciplined Global Equity Fund into Intrinsic World Equity Fund. Under the reorganization, Intrinsic World Equity Fund will acquire the assets and assume the liabilities of Disciplined Global Equity Fund in exchange for shares of Intrinsic World Equity Fund.
A Special Meeting of Shareholders of Disciplined Global Equity Fund will be held in August 2011 to consider and vote on the reorganization. In July 2011, materials for this meeting will be mailed to shareholders of record on May 26, 2011.

BOARD CONSIDERATION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS:
Asia Pacific Fund, Disciplined Global Equity Fund, Diversified International Fund, Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Global Opportunities Fund, International Equity Fund and Intrinsic World Equity Fund
Each year, as required by Section 15 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Wells Fargo Funds Trust (the “Trust”), all the members of which have no direct or indirect interest in the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements and are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), determines whether to approve the continuation of the Trust’s investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements. In this regard, at an in person meeting held on March 24-25, 2011 (the “Meeting”), the Board reviewed and re-approved: (i) an investment advisory agreement with Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”) for each of the Asia Pacific Fund, Disciplined Global Equity Fund, Diversified International Fund, Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Global Opportunities Fund, International Equity Fund and Intrinsic World Equity Fund (collectively, the “Funds”); (ii) an investment sub-advisory agreement with Wells Capital Management Incorporated (“Wells Capital Management”) for each of the Asia Pacific Fund, Disciplined Global Equity Fund, Diversified International Fund, Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Global Opportunities Fund and International Equity Fund; (iii) an investment sub-advisory agreement with Artisan Partners Limited Partnership (“Artisan”) for the Diversified International Fund; (iv) an investment sub-advisory agreement with LSV Asset Management (“LSV”) for the Diversified International Fund; and (v) an investment sub-advisory agreement with Metropolitan West Capital Management, LLC (“MetWest”) for the Intrinsic World Equity Fund. The investment advisory agreements with Funds Management and the investment sub-advisory agreements with Wells Capital Management, Artisan, LSV and MetWest (the “Sub-Advisers”) are collectively referred to as the “Advisory Agreements.”
At the Meeting, the Board considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the selection of Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers and continuation of the Advisory Agreements. Prior to the Meeting, the Trustees conferred extensively among themselves and with representatives of Funds Management about these matters. The Board also met throughout the year and received information that was useful to them in considering the continuation of the Advisory Agreements. The Independent Trustees were assisted in their evaluation of the Advisory Agreements by independent legal counsel, from whom they received separate legal advice and with whom they met separately from Funds Management.
Nature, extent and quality of services
The Board received and considered various information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Funds by Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers under the Advisory Agreements. The Board also received and considered information provided in response to a detailed set of requests submitted by the Independent Trustees’ independent legal counsel on their behalf. The Board received and considered, among other things, information about the background and experience of senior management of Funds Management, and the qualifications, backgrounds, tenures and responsibilities of the portfolio managers primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Funds.
The Board evaluated the ability of Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers, based on their respective financial condition, resources, reputation and other attributes, to attract and retain qualified investment professionals, including research, advisory, and supervisory personnel. The Board further considered the compliance programs and compliance records of Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers. In addition, the Board took into account the administrative services provided to the Funds by Funds Management and its affiliates.
The Board’s decision to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreements was based on a comprehensive evaluation of all of the information provided to it. In approving the continuation of the Advisory Agreements, the Board did not identify any particular information or consideration that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee attributed different weights to various factors. The Board evaluated information provided to it both in terms of the Funds generally and with respect to each Fund specifically as it considered appropriate. Although the Board considered the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for each of the Funds as part of the larger process of considering the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for all of the Funds, its decision to continue the Advisory Agreements for each of the Funds was ultimately made on a fund-by-fund basis.
| | | | |
102 | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Stock Funds | | Other Information (Unaudited) |
In considering these matters, the Board considered not only the specific information presented in connection with the Meeting, but also the knowledge gained over time through interaction with Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers about various topics, including Funds Management’s oversight of service providers. The above factors, together with those referenced below, are some of the most important, but not necessarily all, factors considered by the Board in concluding that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the investment advisory services provided to each Fund by Funds Management and the respective Sub-Adviser.
Fund performance and expenses
The Board considered the performance results for each of the Funds over various time periods ended December 31, 2010. The Board also considered these results in comparison to the median performance of a universe of relevant funds (the “Universe”) that were determined by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”) to be similar to the Funds, and in comparison to each Fund’s benchmark index and to other comparative data. Lipper is an independent provider of investment company data. The Board received a description of the methodology used by Lipper to select the mutual funds in the Universe.
The Board noted that the performance of the Disciplined Global Equity Fund, the Emerging Markets Equity Fund, the Global Opportunities Fund and the Intrinsic World Equity Fund was generally higher than the median performance of the Universe. The Board also noted that the more recent performance of the Diversified International Fund and the International Equity Fund was higher than the median performance of the Universe and the longer-term performance was lower than the median performance of the Universe. The Board also noted that the longer-term performance of the Asia Pacific Fund was higher than the median performance of the Universe and the more recent performance was lower than the median performance of the Universe. Furthermore, the Board noted that performance of each of the Asia Pacific Fund, the Global Opportunities Fund, the International Equity Fund and the Intrinsic World Equity Fund warranted further discussion. As part of its further review, the Board received an analysis of, and discussed factors contributing to, the underperformance of the Asia Pacific Fund, the Global Opportunities Fund, the International Equity Fund and the Intrinsic World Equity Fund relative to the Universe. The Board noted (i) that the Asia Pacific Fund’s rolling one-year results have been in an upward trend since mid-2009; (ii) that the Global Opportunities Fund and the International Equity Fund outperformed their benchmarks for the most recent period under review; and (iii) that the Intrinsic World Equity Fund’s annualized three-year results were above its benchmark. The Board was satisfied that Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers were taking appropriate actions with respect to each of the Fund’s investment performance and requested continued reports on the performance of each of the Funds.
The Board received and considered information regarding each Fund’s contractual advisory fee and net operating expense ratios and their various components, including actual management fees (which reflect fee waivers, if any), transfer agent, custodian and other non-management fees, Rule 12b-1 and non-Rule 12b-1 fees, service fees and fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board also considered these ratios in comparison to the median ratios of an expense Universe and a narrower expense group of mutual funds (each, an “Expense Group”) that was determined by Lipper to be similar to each Fund. The Board received a description of the methodology used by Lipper to select the mutual funds in a Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the net operating expense ratios of each of the Funds were in range of or lower than each Fund’s respective Expense Group’s median net operating expense ratio.
Based on the above-referenced considerations and other factors, the Board concluded that the overall performance and expense structure of the Funds supported the re-approval of the Advisory Agreements for the Funds.
Investment advisory and sub-advisory fee rates
The Board reviewed and considered the contractual investment advisory fee rates that are payable by the Funds to Funds Management for investment advisory services (the “Advisory Agreement Rates”), both on a stand-alone basis and on a combined basis with the Funds’ administration fee rates. The Board took into account the separate administrative and other services covered by the administration fee rates. The Board also reviewed and considered the contractual investment sub-advisory fee rates that are payable by Funds Management to the Sub-Advisers for investment sub-advisory services (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement Rates”). In addition, the Board reviewed and considered the existing fee waiver/cap arrangements applicable to the Advisory Agreement Rates and considered the Advisory Agreement Rates after taking the waivers/caps into account (the “Net Advisory Rates”).
The Board received and considered information comparing the Advisory Agreement Rates and Net Advisory Rates with those of other funds in each Fund’s Expense Group median. The Board noted that the Advisory Agreement Rates for
| | | | | | |
Other Information (Unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Stock Funds | | | 103 | |
Class A of each of the Funds were higher than the median rate of each Fund’s Expense Group, except for the International Equity Fund and the Intrinsic World Equity Fund. The Board also noted that the Advisory Agreement Rates for the Administrator Class and Institutional Class of each of the Funds, except for the Global Opportunities Fund (Administrator Class), were in range of or not appreciably higher the median rate of each Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the Net Advisory Rates for each of the Funds were in range of or lower than the median rates of each Fund’s respective Expense Group, except for the Diversified International Fund (Class A), Emerging Markets Equity Fund (Class A) and the Global Opportunities Fund (Class A). The Board further noted that Funds Management had agreed to continue and, in certain instances, reduce contractual fee cap arrangements for the Funds designed to lower the Funds’ expenses.
The Board also received and considered information about the nature and extent of services offered and fee rates charged by Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers to other types of clients. In this regard, the Board received information about differences between the services, and the compliance, reporting, and other legal burdens and risks of providing investment advice to mutual funds and those associated with providing advice to non-mutual fund clients such as collective funds or institutional separate accounts. In each case, the Board determined that the Advisory Agreement Rates for the Funds, both with and without administration fee rates and before and after waivers, were acceptable in light of the Funds’ Expense Group information, the net expense ratio commitments, the services covered by the Advisory Agreements and other information provided.
The Board also reviewed and considered the Sub-Advisory Agreement Rates and concluded that the Sub-Advisory Agreement Rates were acceptable in light of the services covered by the Sub-Advisory Agreement and other information provided.
Profitability
The Board received and considered a profitability analysis of Funds Management, as well as an analysis of the profitability to the collective Wells Fargo businesses that provide services to the Funds. It considered that the information provided to it was necessarily estimated, and that the profitability information provided to it, especially on a fund-by-fund basis, did not necessarily provide a precise tool for evaluating the appropriateness of each Fund’s Advisory Agreement Rates in isolation. It noted that the levels of profitability of the Funds to Funds Management varied widely, depending on, among other things, the size and type of fund. The Board concluded that the profitability to Funds Management of the services provided to any of the Funds, individually or in the aggregate, was not unreasonable.
The Board did not consider separate profitability information with respect to Wells Capital Management and MetWest, because, as affiliates of Funds Management, their profitability information was subsumed in the collective Wells Fargo profitability analysis provided by Funds Management. The Board did not consider separate profitability information with respect to Artisan and LSV, which are not affiliated with Funds Management. The Board considered that the sub-advisory fees paid to Artisan and LSV had been negotiated by Funds Management on an arm’s-length basis and that their profitability from their relationships with the Diversified International Fund, was not a material factor in determining whether to renew the agreements.
Economies of scale
With respect to possible economies of scale, the Board reviewed the breakpoints in each Fund’s advisory fee structure, which operate generally to reduce the effective Advisory Agreement Rates of the Funds (as a percentage of Fund assets) as the Funds grow in size. It considered that, as a fund shrinks in size, breakpoints conversely result in increasing fee levels. The Board noted that it would continue to review the appropriate levels of breakpoints in the future, and concluded that the breakpoints as implemented appeared to be a reasonable step toward sharing economies of scale with the Funds. However, the Board acknowledged the inherent limitations of any analysis of an investment adviser’s economies of scale and of any attempt to correlate breakpoints with such economies, stemming largely from the Board’s understanding that economies of scale are realized, if at all, by an investment adviser across a variety of products and services, not just with respect to a single fund.
Other benefits to Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers
The Board received and considered information regarding potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits received by Funds Management and its affiliates and the Sub-Advisers as a result of their relationship with the Funds. Ancillary benefits could include, among others, benefits directly attributable to the relationship of Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers with the Funds and benefits potentially derived from an increase in Funds Management’s and each
| | | | |
104 | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Stock Funds | | Other Information (Unaudited) |
Sub-Adviser’s business as a result of their relationship with the Funds (such as the ability to market to shareholders other financial products offered by Funds Management and its affiliates or the Sub-Adviser and their affiliates).
The Board considered that Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC, an affiliate of Funds Management, serves as distributor to the Funds and receives certain compensation for those services. The Board noted that the Funds pay sub-transfer agency fees to various financial institutions, including affiliates of Funds Management that hold fund shares in omnibus accounts. It also considered that these entities may receive distribution-related fees and shareholder servicing payments (including amounts derived from payments under the funds’ Rule 12b-1 plans) in respect of shares sold or held through them.
The Board also reviewed information about whether and to what extent soft dollar credits are sought and how any such credits are utilized and any benefits that may be realized by using an affiliated broker.
Other factors and broader review
The Board also considered the markets for distribution of the Funds’ shares, including the multiple channels through which the Funds’ shares are offered and sold. The Board noted that the Funds are part of one of the few fund families that have both direct-to-fund and intermediary distribution channels. As discussed above, the Board reviews detailed materials received from Funds Management and each Sub-Adviser annually as part of the re-approval process under Section 15 of the 1940 Act and also reviews and assesses information about the quality of the services that the Funds receive throughout the year. In this regard, the Board has reviewed reports of Funds Management at each of its quarterly meetings, which include, among other things, portfolio reviews and performance reports. In addition, the Board confers with portfolio managers at various times throughout the year.
Conclusion
After considering the above-described factors and based on its deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board concluded that approval of the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for the Funds was in the best interest of the Funds and their shareholders. Accordingly, the Board unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for an additional one-year period.

Karla M. Rabusch,
President
Wells Fargo Advantage Funds
Interest rates rose for the period as investors demanded more yield to compensate for potentially higher inflation, with longer-term bonds showing the largest rate increases.
Dear Valued Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide you with this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Advantage Small and Mid Cap Stock Funds for the six-month period that ended April 30, 2011. The period was marked by growing optimism, as most economic data continued to point toward recovery—even as a sluggish employment market remained worrisome. Most major areas of the global stock market ended the period with double-digit gains, but persistently high prices for commodities such as oil, cotton, and corn led to increased fears of inflation and higher interest rates. As a result, most bond market sectors posted either modest gains or moderate losses.
Solid economic reports helped support a stock market rally.
Economic numbers throughout the reporting period supported the case for a gradual recovery. Reported real gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 3.1% in the fourth quarter of 2010. Although GDP growth slowed in the first quarter of 2011, it remained solidly positive at 1.8%, supporting consensus opinion that a double-dip recession was unlikely. The unemployment rate began the period at 9.7% in October 2010 and ended the period modestly lower at 9.0% in April 2011. This still stubbornly high unemployment rate was the main sour note and the primary reason why most analysts believed that an economic recovery would be gradual. Persistent weakness in the housing market remained another source of concern, and by the end of the period, higher prices for food and energy led to concerns about renewed inflation. Interest rates rose for the period as investors demanded more yield to compensate for potentially higher inflation, with longer-term bonds showing the largest rate increases.
Europe’s sovereign debt problems weighed on confidence.
Even before the period began, investors were concerned about the possibility that eurozone member Greece would default on its sovereign debt. Greece applied for a bailout from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund in April 2010, and Ireland followed in November. Portugal also requested a bailout in early April 2011. Concerns about default led to worries about the debt burdens of other member states such as Italy and Spain and about the effect of possible defaults on European banks and pension funds. Despite the debt worries, European stocks rallied during the period. The euro weakened in late 2010 but later recovered, and toward the end of the period, it was trading at levels last reached in late 2009.
Central banks continued to provide stimulus.
Throughout the reporting period, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) kept its key interest rates at effectively zero in order to support the financial system. In November the Federal Reserve (Fed) announced a second round of monetary stimulus in which it planned to purchase $600 billion in long-term U.S. Treasuries by the end of the second quarter of 2011, as well as reinvest an additional $250 billion to $300 billion in Treasuries with the proceeds from earlier investments. At the beginning of the period, the European Central Bank (ECB) had a key rate of 1.00% but raised it to 1.25% in early April in an attempt to keep inflation in check. The ECB continued to provide unlimited liquidity for banks and, in December 2010, announced the purchase of Irish and Portuguese bonds in an attempt to reduce those countries’ borrowing costs.
| | | | | | |
Letter to Shareholders | | Wells Fargo Advantage Small and Mid Cap Stock Funds | | | 3 | |
Global stock markets rallied, but bonds posted losses on fears of renewed inflation.
For the period, domestic small-cap stocks outperformed large-cap stocks as investors bid up shares in companies that stood to gain the most from resumed economic growth. Both developed and emerging markets stocks posted solid gains for the period, as measured by the MSCI indexes.
Within the fixed-income universe, higher interest rates put pressure on bond prices. Although high-grade corporate bonds eked out a modest gain for the period, intermediate and longer-term U.S. Treasury bonds posted losses. High-yield bonds continued to post gains on improved economic conditions and investors’ increased willingness to take on credit risk in exchange for higher yields.
Many variables are at work in the market.
The full effect of the credit crisis remains unknown. Elevated unemployment and debt defaults continue to pressure consumers and businesses alike.
Experience tells us that strict adherence to time-tested strategies has its rewards. As a whole, Wells Fargo Advantage Funds represents investments across a range of asset classes and investment styles, giving you an opportunity to create a diversified investment portfolio. While diversification may not prevent losses in a downturn, it does provide you with one way of managing risk.
Thank you for choosing to invest with Wells Fargo Advantage Funds. We appreciate your confidence in us and remain committed to helping you meet your financial needs.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance shown without sales charges would be lower if sales charges were reflected. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s Web site – www.wellsfargo.com/advantagefunds.
Index returns do not include transaction costs associated with buying and selling securities, any mutual fund fees or expenses or any taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
For Class A shares, the maximum front-end sales charge is 5.75%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including sales charge assumes the sales charge for the corresponding time period. Administrator Class, Institutional Class and Investor Class shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.
Stock fund values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Smaller company stocks tend to be more volatile and less liquid than those of larger companies. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). This Fund is exposed to foreign investment risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks.
3. | Prior to June 1, 2010, the Fund was named Wells Fargo Advantage Small Cap Disciplined Fund. Metropolitan West Capital Management, LLC replaced Wells Capital Management as a sub-adviser for the Fund effective June 1, 2010. Accordingly, performance figures shown prior to June 1, 2010 do not reflect the principal investment strategies or performance of Metropolitan West Capital Management, LLC. Historical performance shown for Class A, the Administrator Class and the Institutional Class shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Investor Class shares, and includes the higher expenses applicable to the Investor Class shares. If these expenses had not been included, returns would be higher.

* | Returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized. |
Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance shown without sales charges would be lower if sales charges were reflected. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s Web site – www.wellsfargo.com/advantagefunds.
Index returns do not include transaction costs associated with buying and selling securities, any mutual fund fees or expenses or any taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
For Class A shares, the maximum front-end sales charge is 5.75%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including sales charge assumes the sales charge for the corresponding time period. Administrator Class and Institutional Class shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.
Stock fund values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Smaller company stocks tend to be more volatile and less liquid than those of larger companies. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks.
3. | Historical performance shown for Class C shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of Class A shares, adjusted to reflect the higher expenses applicable to Class C shares. Historical performance shown for the Administrator Class shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the higher expenses applicable to the Administrator Class shares. Historical performance shown for all classes of the Fund prior to July 19, 2010 is based on the performance of the Fund’s predecessor, Evergreen Growth Fund. |
4. | Reflects the expense ratios as stated in the most recent prospectuses. |
5. | The Adviser has committed through July 18, 2013 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver, excluding certain expenses, at 1.33% for Class A, 2.08% for Class C, 1.20% for Administrator Class and 0.98% for Institutional Class. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. |
6. | The Russell 2000TM Growth Index measures the performance of those Russell 2000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. You cannot invest directly in an index. |

18 | | Wells Fargo Advantage Small and Mid Cap Stock Funds | | Fund Expenses |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, redemption fees (if any) and exchange fees (if any); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder service fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2010 to April 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses
The “Actual” line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. 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 in the “Actual” line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” for your applicable class of shares to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The “Hypothetical” line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the “Hypothetical” line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1. ORGANIZATION
Wells Fargo Funds Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust organized on March 10, 1999, is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). These financial statements report on the following funds: Wells Fargo Advantage Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund (“Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund”), Wells Fargo Advantage Small Cap Growth Fund (“Small Cap Growth Fund”), Wells Fargo Advantage Small Cap Opportunities Fund (“Small Cap Opportunities Fund” ) , Wells Fargo Advantage Small Cap Value Fund (“Small Cap Value Fund”), Wells Fargo Advantage Small/Mid Cap Value Fund (“Small/Mid Cap Value Fund”), Wells Fargo Advantage Special Small Cap Value Fund (“Special Small Cap Value Fund”) and Wells Fargo Advantage Traditional Small Cap Growth Fund (“Traditional Small Cap Growth Fund”) (each, a “Fund”, collectively, the “Funds”). Each Fund is a diversified series of the Trust.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of the financial statements of each Fund, are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Securities valuation
Investments in securities are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, which is usually 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). Securities which are traded on a national or foreign securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price, except that securities listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”) are valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), and if no NOCP is available, then at the last reported sales price. If no sales price is shown on the Nasdaq, the bid price will be used. In the absence of any sale of securities listed on the Nasdaq, and in the case of other securities, including U.S. Government obligations, but excluding debt securities maturing in 60 days or less, the price will be deemed “stale” and the valuations will be determined in accordance with the Funds’ Fair Value Procedures.
Securities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the closing rates of exchange in effect on the day of valuation.
Many securities markets and exchanges outside the U.S. close prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange and therefore may not fully reflect trading or events that occur after the close of the principal exchange in which the foreign investments are traded but before the close of the New York Stock Exchange. If such trading or events are expected to materially affect the value of the investments, then those investments are fair valued following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. These procedures take into account multiple factors including movements in U.S. securities markets after foreign exchanges close. Depending on market activity, such fair valuations may be frequent. Such fair value pricing may result in NAVs that are higher or lower than NAVs based on the closing price or latest quoted bid price.
Debt securities of sufficient credit quality with original maturities of 60 days or less generally are valued at amortized cost which approximates fair value. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security at its cost, plus accretion of discount or minus amortization of premium over the period until maturity.
Investments in open-end mutual funds and non-registered investment companies are generally valued at net asset value.
Certain investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above, are valued at their fair value, as determined by procedures established in good faith and approved by the Board of Trustees.
The valuation techniques used by the Funds to measure fair value are consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach, where applicable, for each security type.
Foreign currency translation
The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets, including investment securities, and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of
| | | | | | |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Advantage Small and Mid Cap Stock Funds | | | 85 | |
foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually paid or received. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities resulting in changes in exchange rates.
The changes in net assets arising from changes in exchange rates and the changes in net assets resulting from changes in market prices of securities are not separately presented. Such changes are recorded with net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Gains and losses from certain foreign currency transactions are treated as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Security loans
The Funds may lend their securities from time to time in order to earn additional income in the form of fees or interest on securities received as collateral or the investment of any cash received as collateral. A Fund continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. A Fund receives collateral in the form of cash or securities with a value at least equal to the value of the securities on loan. The value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of each business day and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the borrower, a Fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the loaned securities or in gaining access to the collateral. In addition, the investment of any cash collateral received may lose all or part of its value. The Fund has the right under the lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand.
The Funds lend their securities through an unaffiliated securities lending agent. Cash collateral received in connection with their securities lending transactions is invested in Wells Fargo Securities Lending Cash Investments, LLC (the “Cash Collateral Fund”). The Cash Collateral Fund is exempt from registration under Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act and is managed by Wells Fargo Funds Management LLC (“Funds Management”) and is sub-advised by Wells Capital Management Incorporated (“Wells Capital Management”). Funds Management receives an advisory fee starting at 0.05% and declining to 0.01% as the average daily net assets of the Cash Collateral Fund increase. All of the fees received by Funds Management are paid to Wells Capital Management for its services as sub-adviser. The Cash Collateral Fund seeks to provide a positive return compared to the daily Fed Funds Open rate by investing in high-quality, U.S. dollar-denominated short-term money market instruments. Cash Collateral Fund investments are fair valued based upon the amortized cost valuation technique. Income earned from investment in the Cash Collateral Fund is included in securities lending income on the Statements of Operations.
In a securities lending transaction, the net asset value of a Fund will be affected by an increase or decrease in the value of the securities loaned and by an increase or decrease in the value of instruments in which cash collateral is invested. The amount of securities lending activity undertaken by a Fund fluctuates from time to time. After the occurrence of a default or impairment of structured investment vehicles purchased in a joint account by the former securities lending agent of each Fund (except, Special Small Cap Value Fund and Traditional Small Cap Growth Fund), as the various participating Funds’ lending activity fluctuated, their ratable interest in the joint account, including their ratable exposure to the defaulted or impaired structured investment vehicles fluctuated depending on the relative activity of each participating Fund. In order to eliminate the fluctuation of the various Funds’ ratable exposure to the defaulted or impaired structured investment vehicles, the adviser to the Funds recommended to the Board of Trustees, and the Board of Trustees approved, actions designed to fix the allocation of percentage ownership in defaulted or impaired structured investment vehicles among all funds participating in securities lending (“side pocketing”) based on each Fund’s percentage ownership of the total cash collateral investment joint account as of the date the fixed allocation is implemented. Accordingly, on February 13, 2009 a side pocketing occurred, which fixed each Fund’s ownership of defaulted or impaired structured investment vehicle in the joint account based on each such Fund’s percentage ownership of the joint account as of such date.
Futures contracts
Certain Funds may be subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Funds may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against changes in, security values and interest rates. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between changes in market values of securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.
| | | | |
86 | | Wells Fargo Advantage Small and Mid Cap Stock Funds | | Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) |
Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices when available. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the financial statements. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Statements of Operations as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts are closed, at which point they are recorded as net realized gains or losses on futures contracts. With futures contracts, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.
Options
Certain Funds may be subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. A Fund may write covered put or call options. When a Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the written option. Premiums received from written options, which expire unexercised, are recognized as realized gains from investments on the expiration date. The difference between the premium received and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is treated as a realized gain or loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in calculating the realized gain or loss on the sale. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost of the security purchased. The Fund, as a writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
A Fund may also purchase call or put options. The premium is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an investment which is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option. Premiums paid for purchased options which expire are recognized as realized losses from investments on the expiration date. Premiums paid for purchased options which are exercised or closed are added to the amount paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying security to determine the realized gain or loss. The risk of loss associated with purchased options is limited to the premium paid.
Options traded on an exchange are regulated and terms of the options are standardized. Options traded over the counter expose the Fund to counterparty risk in the event the counterparty does not perform. This risk is mitigated by having a master netting arrangement between the Fund and the counterparty and by having the counterparty post collateral to cover the Fund’s exposure to the counterparty.
Security transactions and income recognition
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities delivered.
Interest income is accrued daily and bond discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized daily based on the effective interest method. To the extent debt obligations are placed on non-accrual status, any related interest income may be reduced by writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. If the issuer subsequently resumes interest payments or when the collectability of interest is reasonably assured, the debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status.
Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Dividend income from foreign securities is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is not assured.
Distributions to shareholders
Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in conformity with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Federal and other taxes
Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its investment company taxable income and any net realized capital gains (after reduction for capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was required.
| | | | | | |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Advantage Small and Mid Cap Stock Funds | | | 87 | |
Each Fund’s income and federal excise tax returns and all financial records supporting those returns for the prior three fiscal years are subject to examination by the federal and Delaware revenue authorities.
At October 31, 2010, estimated net capital loss carryforwards, which were available to offset future net realized capital gains, were as follows:

| | Expiration | |
| | 2016 | | | 2017 | | | 2018 | |
Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund | | $ | 15,661,688 | | | $ | 79,906,522 | | | $ | 7,594,268 | |

Traditional Small Cap Growth Fund | | | 72,546,184 | | | | 0 | | | | 0 | |
Under the recently enacted Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Funds will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by each Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing and administration fees. Shareholders of each class bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of a Fund, earn income from the portfolio, and are allocated unrealized gains and losses pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocable to each class. Realized gains and losses are allocated to each class pro rata based upon the net assets of each class on the date realized. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from the relative weightings of pro rata income and realized gain allocations and from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees.
3. FAIR VALUATION MEASUREMENTS
Fair value measurements of investments are determined within a framework that has established a fair value hierarchy based upon the various data inputs utilized in determining the value of each Fund’s investments. The three-level hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Each Fund’s investments are classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs are summarized into three broad levels as follows:
n | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
n | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
n | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

8. ACQUISITIONS
Effective at the close of business on July 16, 2010, Special Small Cap Value Fund acquired the net assets of Evergreen Small Cap Value Fund and Evergreen Special Values Fund. The purpose of the transactions was to combine three funds with similar investment objectives and strategies. The acquisitions were accomplished by a tax-free exchange of all of the shares of Evergreen Small Cap Value Fund and Evergreen Special Values Fund. Shareholders holding Class A, Class B, Class C and Class I shares of Evergreen Small Cap Value Fund and Evergreen Special Values Fund received Class A, Class B, Class C and Administrator Class shares, respectively, of Special Small Cap Value Fund in the reorganizations. Class R shares of Evergreen Special Values Fund received Class A shares of Special Small Cap Value Fund. Special Small Cap Value Fund was newly created to receive the assets of Evergreen Small Cap Value Fund and Evergreen Special Values Fund. Evergreen Special Values Fund became the accounting and performance survivor in the reorganizations. The investment portfolio of Evergreen Small Cap Value Fund and Evergreen Special Values Fund with fair values of $35,452,361 and $798,049,201, respectively, and identified costs of $30,733,820 and $971,212,867, respectively, at July 16, 2010, were the principal assets acquired by Special Small Cap Value Fund. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Special Small Cap Value Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from Evergreen Small Cap Value Fund and Evergreen Special Values Fund were carried forward to align ongoing reporting of Special Small Cap Value Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. The value of net assets acquired, unrealized appreciation acquired, exchange ratio and number of shares issued were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Acquired Fund | | Value of Net Assets Acquired | | | Unrealized Gains/Losses | | | Exchange Ratio | | | Number of Shares Issued |
Evergreen Small Cap Value Fund | | $ | 35,385,583 | | | $ | 4,718,541 | | | | 0.56 | | | | 520,841 | | | Class A |
| | | | | | | | | | | 0.56 | | | | 167,510 | | | Class B |
| | | | | | | | | | | 0.56 | | | | 183,875 | | | Class C |
| | | | | | | | | | | 0.59 | | | | 1,139,052 | | | Administrator Class |
Evergreen Special Values Fund | | | 799,508,182 | | | $ | (173,163,666 | ) | | | 1.00 | | | | 25,184,391 | | | Class A* |
| | | | | | | | | | | 1.00 | | | | 1,927,434 | | | Class B |
| | | | | | | | | | | 1.00 | | | | 2,145,954 | | | Class C |
| | | | | | | | | | | 1.00 | | | | 16,097,853 | | | Administrator Class |
* | Amount includes 241,431 shares of Class A issued for Class R shares. |
The aggregate net assets of the Special Small Cap Value Fund immediately after the acquisitions were $834,893,765.
Assuming the acquisitions had been completed August 1, 2009, the beginning of the annual reporting period for Special Small Cap Value Fund, the pro forma results of operations for the year ended July 31, 2010 would have been:
| | | | |
Net investment income | | $ | 254,306 | |
Net realized and unrealized gains on investments | | $ | 187,069,382 | |
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations | | $ | 187,323,688 | |
Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of Evergreen Small Cap Value Fund that have been included in Special Small Cap Value Fund’s Statement of Operations since July 19, 2010.
9. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $125,000,000 revolving credit agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company, whereby the Funds are permitted to use bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes, such as to fund shareholder redemption requests. Interest under the credit agreement is charged to each Fund based on a borrowing rate equal to the higher of the Federal Funds rate in effect on that day plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR rate in effect on that day plus 1.25%. In addition, under the credit agreement, the Funds pay an annual commitment fee equal to 0.125% of the unused balance, which is allocated pro rata.
| | | | |
96 | | Wells Fargo Advantage Small and Mid Cap Stock Funds | | Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) |
For the six months ended April 30, 2011, there were no borrowings by the Funds under the agreement.
10. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts with service providers that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be estimated.
11. REORGANIZATION
At a regular meeting of the Board of Trustees held on May 18-19, 2011, the Trustees approved the reorganization of Small Cap Growth Fund into Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Growth Fund. Under the reorganization, Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Growth Fund will acquire the assets and assume the liabilities of Small Cap Growth Fund in exchange for shares of Wells Fargo Advantage Emerging Growth Fund.
A Special Meeting of Shareholders of Small Cap Growth Fund will be held in August 2011 to consider and vote on the reorganization. In July 2011, materials for this meeting will be mailed to shareholders of record on May 26, 2011.

BOARD CONSIDERATION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS:
Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund, Small Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Opportunities Fund, Small Cap Value Fund, Small/Mid Cap Value Fund, Special Small Cap Value Fund and Traditional Small Cap Growth Fund
Each year, as required by Section 15 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Wells Fargo Funds Trust (the “Trust”), all the members of which have no direct or indirect interest in the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements and are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), determines whether to approve the continuation of the Trust’s investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements. In this regard, at an in person meeting held on March 24-25, 2011 (the “Meeting”), the Board reviewed and re-approved: (i) an investment advisory agreement with Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”) for each of the Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund, Small Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Opportunities Fund, Small Cap Value Fund, Small/Mid Cap Value Fund, Special Small Cap Value Fund and Traditional Small Cap Growth Fund (collectively, the “Funds”); (ii) an investment sub-advisory agreement with Wells Capital Management Incorporated (“Wells Capital Management”) for each of the Small Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Value Fund, Small/Mid Cap Value Fund, Special Small Cap Value Fund and Traditional Small Cap Growth Fund; (iii) an investment sub-advisory agreement with Metropolitan West Capital Management LLC (“MetWest”) for the Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund; and (iv) an investment sub-advisory agreement with Schroder Investment Management North America Inc. (“Schroder”) for the Small Cap Opportunities Fund. The investment advisory agreements with Funds Management and the investment sub-advisory agreements with Wells Capital Management, MetWest and Schroder (the “Sub-Advisers”) are collectively referred to as the “Advisory Agreements.”
At the Meeting, the Board considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the selection of Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers and continuation of the Advisory Agreements. Prior to the Meeting, the Trustees conferred extensively among themselves and with representatives of Funds Management about these matters. The Board also met throughout the year and received information that was useful to them in considering the continuation of the Advisory Agreements. The Independent Trustees were assisted in their evaluation of the Advisory Agreements by independent legal counsel, from whom they received separate legal advice and with whom they met separately from Funds Management.
Nature, extent and quality of services
The Board received and considered various information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Funds by Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers under the Advisory Agreements. The Board also received and considered information provided in response to a detailed set of requests submitted by the Independent Trustees’ independent legal counsel on their behalf. The Board received and considered, among other things, information about the background and experience of senior management of Funds Management, and the qualifications, backgrounds, tenures and responsibilities of the portfolio managers primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Funds.
The Board evaluated the ability of Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers, based on their respective financial condition, resources, reputation and other attributes, to attract and retain qualified investment professionals, including research, advisory, and supervisory personnel. The Board further considered the compliance programs and compliance records of Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers. In addition, the Board took into account the administrative services provided to the Funds by Funds Management and its affiliates.
The Board’s decision to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreements was based on a comprehensive evaluation of all of the information provided to it. In approving the continuation of the Advisory Agreements, the Board did not identify any particular information or consideration that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee attributed different weights to various factors. The Board evaluated information provided to it both in terms of the Funds generally and with respect to each Fund specifically as it considered appropriate. Although the Board considered the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for each of the Funds as part of the larger process of considering the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for all of the Funds, its decision to continue the Advisory Agreements for each of the Funds was ultimately made on a fund-by-fund basis.
In considering these matters, the Board considered not only the specific information presented in connection with the Meeting, but also the knowledge gained over time through interaction with Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers
| | | | | | |
Other Information (Unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Advantage Small and Mid Cap Stock Funds | | | 101 | |
about various topics, including Funds Management’s oversight of service providers. The above factors, together with those referenced below, are some of the most important, but not necessarily all, factors considered by the Board in concluding that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the investment advisory services provided to each Fund by Funds Management and the respective Sub-Adviser.
Fund performance and expenses
The Board considered the performance results for each of the Funds over various time periods ended December 31, 2010. The Board also considered these results in comparison to the median performance of a universe of relevant funds (the “Universe”) that were determined by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”) to be similar to the Funds, and in comparison to each Fund’s benchmark index and to other comparative data. Lipper is an independent provider of investment company data. The Board received a description of the methodology used by Lipper to select the mutual funds in the Universe.
The Board noted that the performance of each of the Funds was higher than the median performance of the Universe for the 3-year, 5-year and 10-year periods under review, except for the Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund and the Special Small Cap Value Fund. The Board also noted that the performance of the Special Small Cap Value Fund was in range of or higher than the median performance of the Universe for the 5-year and 10-year periods under review. The Board noted that the Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund’s performance was lower than the median performance of the Universe for all periods under review. The Board also noted that the performance of the Small Cap Opportunities Fund, the Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund, the Small Cap Value Fund and the Small/Mid Cap Value Fund warranted further discussion. As part of its further review, the Board received an analysis of, and discussed factors contributing to, the underperformance of each of these Funds relative to the Universe. The Board received a report that showed (i) that the Small Cap Opportunities Fund’s performance is consistent with expectations, given the bias towards a higher-quality investment process; (ii) that the Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund recently outperformed its benchmark; (iii) that the Small Cap Value Fund’s investment performance was being appropriately monitored; and (iv) that the Small/Mid Cap Value Fund’s performance for the most recent period was much improved and the Small/Mid Cap Value Fund is ranked in the top six percent of its peers over the one-year period. The Board was satisfied that Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers were taking appropriate actions with respect to each of the Fund’s investment performance and requested continued reports on the performance of each of the Funds.
The Board received and considered information regarding each Fund’s contractual advisory fee and net operating expense ratios and their various components, including actual management fees (which reflect fee waivers, if any), transfer agent, custodian and other non-management fees, Rule 12b-1 and non-Rule 12b-1 fees, service fees and fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board also considered these ratios in comparison to the median ratios of an expense Universe and a narrower expense group of mutual funds (each, an “Expense Group”) that was determined by Lipper to be similar to each Fund. The Board received a description of the methodology used by Lipper to select the mutual funds in a Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that, except for the Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund (Class A), the net operating expense ratios of each of the Funds were in range of or lower than each Fund’s respective Expense Group’s median net operating expense ratio.
Based on the above-referenced considerations and other factors, the Board concluded that the overall performance and expense structure of the Funds supported the re-approval of the Advisory Agreements for the Funds.
Investment advisory and sub-advisory fee rates
The Board reviewed and considered the contractual investment advisory fee rates that are payable by the Funds to Funds Management for investment advisory services (the “Advisory Agreement Rates”), both on a stand-alone basis and on a combined basis with the Funds’ administration fee rates. The Board took into account the separate administrative and other services covered by the administration fee rates. The Board also reviewed and considered the contractual investment sub-advisory fee rates that are payable by Funds Management to the Sub-Advisers for investment sub-advisory services (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement Rates”). In addition, the Board reviewed and considered the existing fee waiver/cap arrangements applicable to the Advisory Agreement Rates and considered the Advisory Agreement Rates after taking the waivers/caps into account (the “Net Advisory Rates”).
The Board received and considered information comparing the Advisory Agreement Rates and Net Advisory Rates with those of other funds in each Fund’s Expense Group median. The Board noted that the Advisory Agreement Rates for the Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund, the Small Cap Opportunities Fund and the Small/Mid Cap Value Fund were in range of
| | | | |
102 | | Wells Fargo Advantage Small and Mid Cap Stock Funds | | Other Information (Unaudited) |
the median rate of each Fund’s Expense Group, except for Class A of the Intrinsic Small Cap Value Fund and the Small/Mid Cap Value Fund, which were higher than the median rate of each Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the Advisory Agreement Rates for the Small Cap Growth Fund, the Small Cap Value Fund, the Special Small Cap Value Fund and the Traditional Small Cap Growth Fund were in range of or not appreciably higher than the median rate of each Fund’s Expense Group, except for each Fund’s Class A and the Administrator Class of the Small Cap Growth Fund and Small Cap Value Fund, which were higher than the median rate of the Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the Net Advisory Rates for each of the Funds were in range of or not appreciably higher than the median rates of each Fund’s respective Expense Group, except for Class A of each of the Funds and the Small Cap Growth Fund’s Administrator Class, which were higher than the median rate of each Fund’s respective Expense Group. The Board further noted that Funds Management had agreed to continue and, in certain instances, reduce contractual fee cap arrangements for the Funds designed to lower the Funds’ expenses.
The Board also received and considered information about the nature and extent of services offered and fee rates charged by Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers to other types of clients. In this regard, the Board received information about differences between the services, and the compliance, reporting, and other legal burdens and risks of providing investment advice to mutual funds and those associated with providing advice to non-mutual fund clients such as collective funds or institutional separate accounts. In each case, the Board determined that the Advisory Agreement Rates for the Funds, both with and without administration fee rates and before and after waivers, were acceptable in light of the Funds’ Expense Group information, the net expense ratio commitments, the services covered by the Advisory Agreements and other information provided.
The Board also reviewed and considered the Sub-Advisory Agreement Rates and concluded that the Sub-Advisory Agreement Rates were acceptable in light of the services covered by the Sub-Advisory Agreement and other information provided.
Profitability
The Board received and considered a profitability analysis of Funds Management, as well as an analysis of the profitability to the collective Wells Fargo businesses that provide services to the Funds. It considered that the information provided to it was necessarily estimated, and that the profitability information provided to it, especially on a fund-by-fund basis, did not necessarily provide a precise tool for evaluating the appropriateness of each Fund’s Advisory Agreement Rates in isolation. It noted that the levels of profitability of the Funds to Funds Management varied widely, depending on, among other things, the size and type of fund. The Board concluded that the profitability to Funds Management of the services provided to any of the Funds, individually or in the aggregate, was not unreasonable.
The Board did not consider separate profitability information with respect to Wells Capital Management and MetWest, because, as affiliates of Funds Management, their profitability information was subsumed in the collective Wells Fargo profitability analysis provided by Funds Management. The Board did not consider separate profitability information with respect to Schroder, which is not affiliated with Funds Management. The Board considered that the sub-advisory fees paid to Schroder had been negotiated by Funds Management on an arm’s-length basis and that their profitability from their relationship with the Small Cap Opportunities Fund, was not a material factor in determining whether to renew the agreements.
Economies of scale
With respect to possible economies of scale, the Board reviewed the breakpoints in each Fund’s advisory fee structure, which operate generally to reduce the effective Advisory Agreement Rates of the Funds (as a percentage of Fund assets) as the Funds grow in size. It considered that, as a fund shrinks in size, breakpoints conversely result in increasing fee levels. The Board noted that it would continue to review the appropriate levels of breakpoints in the future, and concluded that the breakpoints as implemented appeared to be a reasonable step toward sharing economies of scale with the Funds. However, the Board acknowledged the inherent limitations of any analysis of an investment adviser’s economies of scale and of any attempt to correlate breakpoints with such economies, stemming largely from the Board’s understanding that economies of scale are realized, if at all, by an investment adviser across a variety of products and services, not just with respect to a single fund.

Other benefits to Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers
The Board received and considered information regarding potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits received by Funds Management and its affiliates and the Sub-Advisers as a result of their relationship with the Funds. Ancillary benefits could include, among others, benefits directly attributable to the relationship of Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers with the Funds and benefits potentially derived from an increase in Funds Management’s and each Sub-Adviser’s business as a result of their relationship with the Funds (such as the ability to market to shareholders other financial products offered by Funds Management and its affiliates or the Sub-Adviser and their affiliates).
The Board considered that Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC, an affiliate of Funds Management, serves as distributor to the Funds and receives certain compensation for those services. The Board noted that the Funds pay sub-transfer agency fees to various financial institutions, including affiliates of Funds Management that hold fund shares in omnibus accounts. It also considered that these entities may receive distribution-related fees and shareholder servicing payments (including amounts derived from payments under the funds’ Rule 12b-1 plans) in respect of shares sold or held through them.
The Board also reviewed information about whether and to what extent soft dollar credits are sought and how any such credits are utilized and any benefits that may be realized by using an affiliated broker.
Other factors and broader review
The Board also considered the markets for distribution of the Funds’ shares, including the multiple channels through which the Funds’ shares are offered and sold. The Board noted that the Funds are part of one of the few fund families that have both direct-to-fund and intermediary distribution channels. As discussed above, the Board reviews detailed materials received from Funds Management and each Sub-Adviser annually as part of the re-approval process under Section 15 of the 1940 Act and also reviews and assesses information about the quality of the services that the Funds receive throughout the year. In this regard, the Board has reviewed reports of Funds Management at each of its quarterly meetings, which include, among other things, portfolio reviews and performance reports. In addition, the Board confers with portfolio managers at various times throughout the year.
Conclusion
After considering the above-described factors and based on its deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board concluded that approval of the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for the Funds was in the best interest of the Funds and their shareholders. Accordingly, the Board unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for an additional one-year period.

Karla M. Rabusch,
President
Wells Fargo Advantage Funds
The ongoing recovery of global growth continued to face significant challenges, as sovereign debt problems around the world spurred additional calls for fiscal austerity and a renewed focus on deficit reduction
Dear Valued Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide you with this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Advantage International Bond Fund, which covers the six-month period that ended April 30, 2011. Wells Fargo Advantage Funds provides many different mutual funds, giving you the flexibility to invest in a family of funds that covers nearly every asset class and investment style. We are pleased to have you as an investor in our Wells Fargo Advantage International Bond Fund and welcome the opportunity to provide you with solutions to all of your investment needs.
Global fixed-income securities declined and then rallied on continued monetary accommodation.
Global fixed-income markets experienced mixed performance during the period. The ongoing recovery of global growth continued to face significant challenges, as sovereign debt problems around the world spurred additional calls for fiscal austerity and a renewed focus on deficit reduction, which curtailed some of the postcrisis optimism and resulted in a decline in global bond markets in the first couple months of the period. Inflation continued to be mostly subdued around the world, allowing those governments that were concentrating on reducing their deficits to keep an extreme accommodation in monetary policy. In fact, the United States announced a second round of quantitative easing (QE2) early in the period, citing continued low inflation and low growth expectations. The announcement resulted in mixed results for global bond prices. Debt securities around the globe had previously appreciated in value on early indications that more quantitative easing was possible, but after the announcement was made official, global bond markets declined, likely due to the projections that this would be the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) final monetary easing program.
In the months following, global fixed-income markets once again modestly rallied, led by higher-yielding securities, particularly in the investment-grade and high-yield corporate debt sectors. This rally in higher-yielding securities appeared to be motivated in part by the lack of income-returning investment opportunities—a consequence of extraordinarily low interest rates, low inflation conditions, and restrained expectations for economic growth in the largest economies. The QE2 program in the U.S. not only drove rates lower, but also created further scarcity in income-producing securities, thus driving investors to other sectors of the global fixed-income markets, particularly the higher-yielding segments.
We believe it is likely that monetary accommodation will continue across many of the largest economic sovereignties around the globe in the near term. However, whether or not these influences will continue to produce rallies in fixed-income securities is open for debate. At some stage, yields will have to move higher, and we continue to manage our strategies with such future considerations in mind. Yet, at the same time, we do not intend to restrict ourselves from participating in the opportunities to add higher levels of yield for our investors. The recent period produced compelling performance from global fixed-income securities, and while we believe it is not likely that the same conditions will repeat themselves in the upcoming period, we remain optimistic about the opportunities to invest for attractive levels of yield.
| | | | | | |
Letter to Shareholders | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Bond Fund | | | 3 | |
Bonds and currencies of smaller economies continued to demonstrate strength.
Global bond market yields continued to shift higher during the final months of the period but not to the same magnitude as in the earlier months. This was partially offset by strong performance from the corporate bond sectors later in the period. However, sovereign debt concerns regarding the eurozone and the U.S. continued to weigh on bond valuations across the global markets. In the U.S., the growth outlook improved, but the deficit outlook continued to deteriorate while inflation expectations began to increase. An exit strategy for the U.S. central bank’s highly accommodative monetary policy is unclear and appears requisite to sustainable economic growth in the near term.
In Europe, conditions were similar but were also more complex. In the core euro region, the growth outlook improved, courtesy of trade economies. Deficit reduction began in earnest during the first quarter, while inflation expectations appeared stable. However, in the eurozone periphery, growth continued to languish in recession, due in part to deficit reduction measures. These types of issues (low growth, highly accommodative monetary policy) continue to be most prevalent among the largest economies, while the smaller economies, in our view, will likely see monetary tightening and better prospects for growth.
Throughout the period, we were positioned for underperformance from the largest economies and a devaluing of the U.S. dollar. We continue to anticipate similar conditions throughout 2011 despite the volatility in the first quarter, which saw the Japanese yen sharply depreciate and the euro rise to the position of global strength. The case for a structurally weaker U.S. dollar is well known, and the same case can be made for the British sterling. However, the euro is only marginally better. We believe that the structural bear market in the U.S. is likely to re-emerge later in 2011 but not until we have a framework for the settlement of sovereign debt problems in peripheral Europe.
Meanwhile, we should expect increased, coordinated intervention in an effort to ensure a stable currency background following the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Therefore, with markets trading on the latest news, we believe that it is unwise to take significant positions in any of the three major currencies and that only a weak sterling outlook should be allowed for. Longer term, we believe the currencies of the smaller, more dynamic economies with trade surpluses, healthier growth, and higher interest rates should appreciate. We particularly like the smaller, more dynamic Asian and South American economies. While concerns about the health of the largest economies continue, we believe several opportunities for investor value in the smaller economies of the global fixed-income markets continue to develop.
In our opinion, diligent and earnest assessment of the fundamental risks in individual fixed-income securities will be a key factor in determining which investment strategies perform well and which do not. We believe it is important to have the right caretakers in charge of investors’ assets during times of uncertainty and opportunity. At Wells Fargo Advantage Funds, we intend to continue measuring relative-value opportunities in the international fixed-income markets. As evidenced by the performance of international fixed-income assets during the recent six-month period, heightened risks often accompany opportunities.
We believe it is likely that monetary accommodation will continue across many of the largest economic sovereignties around the globe for at least the next couple of quarters.

Short-term volatility shouldn’t derail long-term investment goals.
While periods of volatility can present challenges, experience has taught us that maintaining a long-term investment strategy based on individual goals and risk tolerance can be an effective way to plan for the future. As a whole, Wells Fargo Advantage Funds represents investments across a broad range of asset classes and investment styles with more than 120 mutual funds, giving you an opportunity to create a diversified investment portfolio. While diversification may not prevent losses in a downturn, it may help reduce them and provide you with one way of managing risk.

* | Returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized. |
** | Class B shares are closed to investment, except in connection with the reinvestment of any distributions and permitted exchanges. |
Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance shown without sales charges would be lower if sales charges were reflected. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s Web site – www.wellsfargo.com/advantagefunds.
Index returns do not include transaction costs associated with buying and selling securities, any mutual fund fees or expenses or any taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
For Class A shares, the maximum front-end sales charge is 4.50%. For Class B shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 5.00%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including sales charge assumes the sales charge for the corresponding time period. Administrator Class and Institutional Class shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.
Bond fund values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. In general, when interest rates rise, bond fund values fall and investors may lose principal value. Foreign investments are especially volatile and can rise or fall dramatically due to differences in the political and economic conditions of the host country. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). This Fund is exposed to active trading risk, high yield securities risk, mortgage- and asset-backed securities risk, and regional risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks.
3. | Historical performance shown for Classes A, B, C and Administrator Class shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the higher expenses applicable to Classes A, B, C and Administrator Class shares. Historical performance shown for all classes of the Fund prior to July 12, 2010 is based on the performance of the Fund’s predecessor, Evergreen International Bond Fund. |
4. | Reflects the expense ratios as stated in the most recent prospectuses. |
5. | The Adviser has committed through July 11, 2013 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver, excluding certain expenses, at the amount shown above. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. |
6. | The BofA Merrill Lynch Global Broad Market Ex. U.S. Index tracks the performance of investment grade debt publicly issued in the major domestic and eurobond markets, including sovereign, quasi-government, corporate, securitized and collateralized securities and excludes all securities denominated in US dollars. You cannot invest directly in an index. |

Fund Expenses | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Bond Fund | | | 7 | |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, redemption fees (if any) and exchange fees (if any); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder service fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is in tended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2010 to April 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses
The “Actual” line of the table below provides in formation about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. 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 in the “Actual” line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” for your applicable class of shares to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetic al Example for Comparison Purposes
The “Hypothetical” line of the table below provides in formation about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the “Hypothetical” line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1. ORGANIZATION
Wells Fargo Funds Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust organized on March 10, 1999, is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). These financial statements report on Wells Fargo Advantage International Bond Fund (the “Fund”) which is a diversified series of the Trust.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the Fund, are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Securities valuation
Certain fixed income securities with maturities exceeding 60 days are valued based on available market quotations received from an independent pricing service approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees which may utilize both transaction data and market information such as yield, prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data. If valuations are not available from the pricing service or values received are deemed not representative of market value, values will be obtained from a third party broker-dealer or determined based on the Fund’s Fair Value Procedures.
Debt securities of sufficient credit quality with original maturities of 60 days or less generally are valued at amortized cost which approximates fair value. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security at its cost, plus accretion of discount or minus amortization of premium over the period until maturity.
Investments in open-end mutual funds and non-registered investment companies are generally valued at net asset value.
Certain investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above, are valued at their fair value, as determined by procedures established in good faith and approved by the Board of Trustees.
The valuation techniques used by the Fund to measure fair value are consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach, where applicable, for each security type.
Foreign currency translation
The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets, including investment securities, and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually paid or received. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities resulting in changes in exchange rates.
The changes in net assets arising from changes in exchange rates and the changes in net assets resulting from changes in market prices of securities are not separately presented. Such changes are recorded with net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Gains and losses from certain foreign currency transactions are treated as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Forward foreign currency contracts
The Fund may be subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund enters into forward foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities and to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. Forward foreign currency contracts are recorded at the forward rate and marked-to-market daily. When the contracts are closed, realized gains and losses arising from such transactions are
| | | | | | |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Bond Fund | | | 21 | |
recorded as realized gains or losses on foreign currency related transactions. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the unrealized gains or losses on the contracts. This risk is mitigated by having a master netting arrangement between the Fund and the counterparty.
When-issued transactions
The Fund may purchase securities on a forward commitment or ‘when-issued’ basis. The Fund records a when-issued transaction on the trade date and will segregate assets to cover its obligation by confirming the availability of qualifying assets having a value sufficient to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued basis are marked-to-market daily and the Fund begins earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
Security transactions and income recognition
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities delivered.
Interest income is accrued daily and bond discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized daily based on the effective interest method. To the extent debt obligations are placed on non-accrual status, any related interest income may be reduced by writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. If the issuer subsequently resumes interest payments or when the collectability of interest is reasonably assured, the debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status.
Distributions to shareholders
Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in conformity with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Federal and other taxes
The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its investment company taxable income and any net realized capital gains (after reduction for capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was required.
The Fund’s income and federal excise tax returns and all financial records supporting those returns for the prior three fiscal years are subject to examination by the federal and Delaware revenue authorities.
Under the recently enacted Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Fund will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing and administration fees. Shareholders of each class bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund, earn income from the portfolio, and are allocated unrealized gains and losses pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocable to each class. Realized gains and losses are allocated to each class pro rata based upon the net assets of each class on the date realized. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from the relative weightings of pro rata income and realized gain allocations and from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees.

3. FAIR VALUATION MEASUREMENTS
Fair value measurements of investments are determined within a framework that has established a fair value hierarchy based upon the various data inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. The three-level hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The Fund’s investments are classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs are summarized into three broad levels as follows:
n | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
n | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
n | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
As of April 30, 2011, the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets, which are carried at fair value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND OTHER EXPENSES
Advisory fee
The Trust has entered into an advisory contract with Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”). The adviser is responsible for implementing investment policies and guidelines and for supervising the sub-adviser, who is responsible for day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund.
Pursuant to the contract, Funds Management is paid an annual advisory fee starting at 0.55% and declining to 0.45% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended April 30, 2011, the advisory fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.52% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management may retain the services of certain sub-advisers to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fees related to sub-advisory services are borne directly by the adviser and do not increase the overall fees paid by the Fund to the adviser. First International Advisors, LLC, an affiliate of Funds Management and indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the sub-adviser to the Fund and is paid a fee by the adviser at an annual rate starting at 0.35% and declining to 0.20% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration and transfer agent fees
The Trust has entered into an administration agreement with Funds Management. Under this agreement, for providing administrative services, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers, Funds Management is entitled to receive from the Fund an annual fund level administration fee starting at 0.05% and declining to 0.03% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase and a class level administration fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of the Fund as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class Level Administration Fee | |
Class A, Class B, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Administrator Class | | | 0.10 | |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed advisory and administration fees to the extent necessary to maintain certain net operating expense ratios for the Fund. Waiver of fees and/or reimbursement of expenses by Funds Management were made first from fund level expenses on a proportionate basis and then from class specific expenses.
Distribution fees
The Trust has adopted a Distribution Plan for Class B and Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Distribution fees are charged to the Class B and Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC, the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares.
For the six months ended April 30, 2011, Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC received $9,050 from the sale of Class A shares and $77, $3,657 and $320 in contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, Class B, Class C and Administrator Class of the Fund is charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.

The fair value, realized gains or losses and change in unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments are reflected in the appropriate financial statements.
7. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $125,000,000 revolving credit agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company, whereby the Fund is permitted to use bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes, such as to fund shareholder redemption requests. Interest under the credit agreement is charged to the Fund based on a borrowing rate equal to the higher of the Federal Funds rate in effect on that day plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR rate in effect on that day plus 1.25%. In addition, under the credit agreement, the Fund pays an annual commitment fee equal to 0.125% of the unused balance, which is allocated pro rata.
For the six months ended April 30, 2011, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts with service providers that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated.

BOARD CONSIDERATION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS:
Each year, as required by Section 15 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Wells Fargo Funds Trust (the “Trust”), all the members of which have no direct or indirect interest in the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements and are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), determines whether to approve the continuation of the Trust’s investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements. In this regard, at an in person meeting held on March 24-25, 2011 (the “Meeting”), the Board reviewed and re-approved: (i) an investment advisory agreement with Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”) for the International Bond Fund (the “Fund”) and (ii) an investment sub-advisory agreement with First International Advisors, LLC (“FIA”) for the Fund. The investment advisory agreement with Funds Management and the investment sub-advisory agreement with FIA are collectively referred to as the “Advisory Agreements.”
At the Meeting, the Board considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the selection of Funds Management and FIA and continuation of the Advisory Agreements. Prior to the Meeting, the Trustees conferred extensively among themselves and with representatives of Funds Management about these matters. The Board also met throughout the year and received information that was useful to them in considering the continuation of the Advisory Agreements. The Independent Trustees were assisted in their evaluation of the Advisory Agreements by independent legal counsel, from whom they received separate legal advice and with whom they met separately from Funds Management.
Nature, extent and quality of services
The Board received and considered various information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by Funds Management and FIA under the Advisory Agreements. The Board also received and considered information provided in response to a detailed set of requests submitted by the Independent Trustees’ independent legal counsel on their behalf. The Board received and considered, among other things, information about the background and experience of senior management of Funds Management, and the qualifications, backgrounds, tenures and responsibilities of the portfolio managers primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund.
The Board evaluated the ability of Funds Management and FIA, based on their respective financial condition, resources, reputation and other attributes, to attract and retain qualified investment professionals, including research, advisory, and supervisory personnel. The Board further considered the compliance programs and compliance records of Funds Management and FIA. In addition, the Board took into account the administrative services provided to the Fund by Funds Management and its affiliates.
The Board’s decision to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreements was based on a comprehensive evaluation of all of the information provided to it. In approving the continuation of the Advisory Agreements, the Board did not identify any particular information or consideration that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee attributed different weights to various factors. The Board evaluated information provided to it both in terms of the funds generally and with respect to the Fund, specifically as it considered appropriate. Although the Board considered the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for the Fund as part of the larger process of considering the continuation of the advisory agreements for all of the funds, its decision to continue the Advisory Agreements for the Fund was ultimately made on a fund-by-fund basis.
In considering these matters, the Board considered not only the specific information presented in connection with the Meeting, but also the knowledge gained over time through interaction with Funds Management and FIA about various topics, including Funds Management’s oversight of service providers. The above factors, together with those referenced below, are some of the most important, but not necessarily all, factors considered by the Board in concluding that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the investment advisory services provided to the Fund by Funds Management and FIA.
Fund performance and expenses
The Board considered the performance results for the Fund over various time periods ended December 31, 2010. The Board also considered these results in comparison to the median performance of a universe of relevant funds (the “Universe”) that was determined by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”) to be similar to the Fund, and in comparison to the Fund’s
| | | | |
30 | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Bond Fund | | Other Information (Unaudited) |
benchmark index and to other comparative data. Lipper is an independent provider of investment company data. The Board received a description of the methodology used by Lipper to select the mutual funds in the Universe.
The Board noted that the performance of the Fund was higher than the median performance of the Universe for the periods under review.
The Board received and considered information regarding the Fund’s contractual advisory fee and net operating expense ratios and their various components, including actual management fees (which reflect fee waivers, if any), transfer agent, custodian and other non-management fees, Rule 12b-1 and non-Rule 12b-1 fees, service fees and fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board also considered these ratios in comparison to the median ratios of an expense Universe and a narrower expense group of mutual funds (each, an “Expense Group”) that was determined by Lipper to be similar to the Fund. The Board received a description of the methodology used by Lipper to select the mutual funds in the Fund’s Expense Group. The Board noted that the net operating expense ratio of the Fund was in range of or lower than the Fund’s Expense Group’s median net operating expense ratio.
Based on the above-referenced considerations and other factors, the Board concluded that the overall performance and expense structure of the Fund supported the re-approval of the Advisory Agreements for the Fund.
Investment advisory and sub-advisory fee rates
The Board reviewed and considered the contractual investment advisory fee rate that is payable by the Fund to Funds Management for investment advisory services (the “Advisory Agreement Rate”), both on a stand-alone basis and on a combined basis with the Fund’s administration fee rate. The Board took into account the separate administrative and other services covered by the administration fee rate. The Board also reviewed and considered the contractual investment sub-advisory fee rate that is payable by Funds Management to FIA for investment sub-advisory services (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement Rate”). In addition, the Board reviewed and considered the existing fee waiver/cap arrangements applicable to the Advisory Agreement Rate and considered the Advisory Agreement Rate after taking the waivers/caps into account (the “Net Advisory Rate”).
The Board received and considered information comparing the Advisory Agreement Rate and Net Advisory Rate with those of other funds in the Fund’s Expense Group median. The Board noted that the Advisory Agreement Rate and Net Advisory Rate for the Fund were in range of the median rates for the Fund’s Expense Group. The Board further noted that Funds Management had agreed to continue contractual fee cap arrangements for the Fund designed to lower the Fund’s expenses.
The Board also received and considered information about the nature and extent of services offered and fee rates charged by Funds Management and FIA to other types of clients. In this regard, the Board received information about differences between the services, and the compliance, reporting, and other legal burdens and risks of providing investment advice to mutual funds and those associated with providing advice to non-mutual fund clients such as collective funds or institutional separate accounts.
The Board determined that the Advisory Agreement Rate for the Fund, both with and without an administration fee rate and before and after waivers, were acceptable in light of the Fund’s Expense Group information, the net expense ratio commitments, the services covered by the Advisory Agreements and other information provided. The Board also reviewed and considered the Sub-Advisory Agreement Rate and concluded that the Sub-Advisory Agreement Rate was acceptable in light of the services covered by the Sub-Advisory Agreement and other information provided.
Profitability
The Board received and considered a profitability analysis of Funds Management, as well as an analysis of the profitability to the collective Wells Fargo businesses that provide services to the Fund. It considered that the information provided to it was necessarily estimated, and that the profitability information provided to it, especially on a fund-by-fund basis, did not necessarily provide a precise tool for evaluating the appropriateness of the Fund’s Advisory Agreement Rates in isolation. It noted that the levels of profitability of the Fund to Funds Management varied widely, depending on, among other things, the size and type of fund. The Board concluded that the profitability to Funds Management of the services provided to the Fund, individually or in the aggregate, was not unreasonable.
| | | | | | |
Other Information (Unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Advantage International Bond Fund | | | 31 | |
The Board did not consider separate profitability information with respect to FIA, because, as an affiliate of Funds Management, its profitability information was subsumed in the collective Wells Fargo profitability analysis provided by Funds Management.
Economies of scale
With respect to possible economies of scale, the Board reviewed the breakpoints in the Fund’s advisory fee structure, which operate generally to reduce the effective Advisory Agreement Rate of the Fund (as a percentage of Fund assets) as the Fund grows in size. It considered that, as a fund shrinks in size, breakpoints conversely result in increasing fee levels. The Board noted that it would continue to review the appropriate levels of breakpoints in the future, and concluded that the breakpoints as implemented appeared to be a reasonable step toward sharing economies of scale with the Fund. However, the Board acknowledged the inherent limitations of any analysis of an investment adviser’s economies of scale and of any attempt to correlate breakpoints with such economies, stemming largely from the Board’s understanding that economies of scale are realized, if at all, by an investment adviser across a variety of products and services, not just with respect to a single fund.
Other benefits to Funds Management and FIA
The Board received and considered information regarding potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits received by Funds Management and its affiliates, including FIA, as a result of their relationship with the Fund. Ancillary benefits could include, among others, benefits directly attributable to the relationship of Funds Management and FIA with the Fund and benefits potentially derived from an increase in Funds Management’s and FIA’s business as a result of their relationship with the Fund (such as the ability to market to shareholders other financial products offered by Funds Management and its affiliates, including FIA).
The Board considered that Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC, an affiliate of Funds Management, serves as distributor to the Fund and receives certain compensation for those services. The Board noted that the Fund pays sub-transfer agency fees to various financial institutions, including affiliates of Funds Management that hold fund shares in omnibus accounts. It also considered that these entities may receive distribution-related fees and shareholder servicing payments (including amounts derived from payments under the funds’ Rule 12b-1 plans) in respect of shares sold or held through them.
The Board also reviewed information about whether and to what extent soft dollar credits are sought and how any such credits are utilized and any benefits that may be realized by using an affiliated broker.
Other factors and broader review
The Board also considered the markets for distribution of the Fund’s shares, including the multiple channels through which the Fund’s shares are offered and sold. The Board noted that the Fund is part of one of the few fund families that have both direct-to-fund and intermediary distribution channels. As discussed above, the Board reviews detailed materials received from Funds Management and FIA annually as part of the re-approval process under Section 15 of the 1940 Act and also reviews and assesses information about the quality of the services that the Fund receives throughout the year. In this regard, the Board has reviewed reports of Funds Management at each of its quarterly meetings, which include, among other things, portfolio reviews and performance reports. In addition, the Board confers with portfolio managers at various times throughout the year.
Conclusion
After considering the above-described factors and based on its deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board concluded that approval of the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for the Fund was in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders. Accordingly, the Board unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for an additional one-year period.
