Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Alternative Strategies Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.
Periods of investment uncertainty can present challenges, but experience has taught us that maintaining long-term investment goals can be an effective way to plan for the future. To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles.

We encourage investors to know their investments and to understand that appropriate levels of risk-taking may unlock opportunities.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 a contingent deferred 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.
The Fund does not invest directly in hedge funds but pursues similar strategies to those typically used by hedge funds. The Fund invests using alternative investment strategies such as equity hedged, event driven, global macro, and relative value, which are speculative and entail a high degree of risk. Stock values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Bond values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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. Borrowing money to purchase securities or cover short positions magnifies losses and incurs expenses. Short selling is generally considered speculative, has the potential for unlimited loss, and may involve leverage. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). Securities issued by U.S. government agencies or government-sponsored entities may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Fund is exposed to high-yield securities risk, mortgage- and asset-backed securities risk, convertible securities risk, loan risk, regulatory risk, and smaller-company securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks.

The expense ratios shown are subject to change and may differ from the annualized expense ratios shown in the financial highlights of this report which include prime broker fees and dividend expenses on securities sold short but do not include acquired fund fees and expenses incurred from investment made by The Rock Creek Group, LP. |
2 | The manager has contractually committed through October 31, 2018, to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers at 2.22% for Class A, 2.97% for Class C, 2.07% for Administrator Class, and 1.97% for Institutional Class. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, prime broker fees, dividend and interest expenses on securities sold short, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. The waiver of acquired fund fees and expenses incurred from investments made by The Rock Creek Group, LP, a subadviser of the Fund, are included in the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. The expense ratio paid by an investor is the net expense ratio or the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers, as stated in the prospectuses. |

You cannot invest directly in an index. |
4 | The Hedge Fund Research Incorporated (HFRI) Fund of Funds Composite Index is a global, equally-weighted index of hedge funds that invest with multiple managers in a broad range of strategies. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
5 | The chart shows the percentage of Fund holdings within a particular sector that was held long (securities owned by the Fund) or sold short (sale of borrowed securities). Gross exposure is the absolute value of the long positions and short positions combined. Net exposure is the percentage of long positions minus the percentage of positions sold short. |
6 | Strategy allocation is calculated based on the market value of total investments. Cash shown is the sweep cash position of the Fund, and excludes any cash or cash equivalents that may be pledged as collateral for other investments of the Fund. Strategy allocation is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |
7 | The ten largest long and short position holdings, excluding cash and cash equivalents, are calculated based on the value of the investments divided by total net assets of the Fund. Holdings are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo Alternative Strategies Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Alternative Strategies Fund Fund (the “Fund”) which is a diversified series of the Trust.
2. INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARY
The Fund invests various derivatives, including commodity-linked derivatives, through ASF Special Investments (Cayman), Ltd. (the “Subsidiary”), a wholly owned subsidiary incorporated on June 6, 2016 under the laws of the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability. Through the Subsidiary, the Fund is exposed to the performance of the commodities markets. As of December 31, 2017, the Subsidiary invested $52,051 in interest rate swaps and had $242,699 in cash and segregated cash. The Fund is the sole shareholder of the Subsidiary. As of December 31, 2017, the Fund’s investment in the Subsidiary was valued at $294,750, representing 0.17% of the Fund’s net assets.
The consolidated financial statements of the Fund include the financial results of its wholly-owned subsidiary. The Consolidated Portfolio of Investments includes positions of the Fund and the Subsidiary and the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Fund and the Subsidiary. Accordingly, all interfund balances and transactions between the Fund and the Subsidiary have been eliminated in consolidation.
3. 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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Equity securities, options and futures that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price. If no sale occurs on the principal exchange or market that day, a fair value price will be determined in accordance with the Fund’s Valuation Procedures.
Non-listed options and swaps are valued at the evaluated price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at rates provided by an independent foreign currency pricing source at a time each business day specified by the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”).
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 securities 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 such securities, then fair value pricing procedures approved by the Board of Trustees of the Fund are applied. These procedures take into account multiple factors including movements in U.S. securities markets after foreign exchanges close. Foreign securities that are fair valued under these procedures are categorized as Level 2 and the application of these procedures may result in transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. Depending on market activity, such fair valuations may be frequent. Such fair value pricing may result in net asset values that are higher or lower than net asset values based on the last reported sales price or latest quoted bid price. On December 31, 2017, such fair value pricing was not used in pricing foreign securities.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the
| | | | | | |
Notes to consolidated financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Alternative Strategies Fund | | | 37 | |
Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team. The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
Foreign currency translation
The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at rates provided by an independent foreign currency pricing source at a time each business day specified by the Management Valuation Team. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and expenses are converted at the rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. 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 from changes in exchange rates. The changes in net assets arising from changes in exchange rates of securities and the changes in net assets resulting from changes in market prices of securities are not separately presented. Such changes are included in net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.
Participation notes
The Fund may invest in participation notes to gain exposure to securities in certain foreign markets. Participation notes are issued by banks or broker-dealers and are designed to offer a return linked to a particular underlying foreign security. Participation notes involve transaction costs, which may be higher than those applicable to the underlying foreign security. The holder of the participation note is entitled to receive from the bank or broker-dealer, an amount equal to the dividend paid by the issuer of the underlying foreign security; however, the holder is not entitled to the same rights (i.e. dividends, voting rights) as an owner of the underlying foreign security. Investments in participation notes involve risks beyond those normally associated with a direct investment in an underlying security. The Fund has no rights against the issuer of the underlying foreign security and participation notes expose the Fund to counterparty risk in the event the counterparty does not perform. There is also no assurance there will be a secondary trading market for the participation note or that the trading price of the participation note will equal the underlying value of the foreign security that it seeks to replicate.
Forward foreign currency contracts
The Fund is subject to foreign currency 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 on the contracts. This risk may be mitigated if there is a master netting arrangement between the Fund and the counterparty.
Futures contracts
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk, equity price risk and foreign currency risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against, changes in interest rates, security values, and foreign exchange 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.

38 | | Wells Fargo Alternative Strategies Fund | | Notes to consolidated financial statements (unaudited) |
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 Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Consolidated Statement 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 clearing house, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.
Options
The Fund is subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may write covered call options or secured put options on individual securities and/or indexes. When the 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 that expire unexercised are recognized as realized gains on the expiration date. For exercised options, 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 and/or index underlying the written option.
The Fund may also purchase call or put options. Premiums paid are included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as investments, the values of which are subsequently adjusted based on the current market values of the options. Premiums paid for purchased options that expire are recognized as realized losses on the expiration date. Premiums paid for purchased options that are exercised or closed are added to the amount paid or offset against the proceeds received for 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. Purchased options traded over-the-counter expose the Fund to counterparty risk in the event the counterparty does not perform. This risk can be 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.
Short sales
The Fund may sell a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security (short sale). When the Fund makes a short sale, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the buyer. The Fund is then obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing the security at the market price at the time of replacement.
The Fund records the proceeds as a liability which is marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from an independent pricing service or an independent broker-dealer and any change in value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Any interest or dividends accrued on such borrowed securities during the period of the loan are recorded as an expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. To borrow the security, the Fund may be required to pay a premium, which would decrease the proceeds of the security sold. A gain, limited to the price at which the Fund sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in size, will be recognized upon the closing of a short sale if the market price at the closing is less than or greater than, respectively, the proceeds originally received. Until the short sale is closed or the borrowed security is replaced, the Fund maintains a segregated account of cash or liquid securities, the dollar value of which is at least equal to the market value of the security at the time of the short sale.
Credit default swaps
The Fund is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may enter into credit default swap contracts for hedging or speculative purposes to provide or receive a measure of protection against default on a referenced entity, obligation or index or for investment gains. Credit default swaps involve an exchange of a stream of payments for protection against the loss in value of an underlying security or index. Under the terms of the swap, one party acts as a guarantor (referred to as the seller of protection) and receives a periodic stream of payments, provided that there is no credit event, from another party (referred to as the buyer of protection) that is a fixed percentage applied to a notional principal amount over the term of the swap. An index credit default swap references all the names in the index, and if a credit event is triggered, the credit event is settled based on that name’s weight in the index. A credit event includes bankruptcy, failure to pay, obligation default, obligation acceleration, repudiation/moratorium, and restructuring. The Fund may enter into credit default swaps as either the seller of protection or the buyer of protection. As the seller of protection, the Fund is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap and has assumed the risk of default of the underlying security or index. As the buyer of protection, the Fund could be exposed to risks if the seller of the protection defaults on its obligation to perform, or if there are unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates. The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that the Fund as the seller of protection could be required to make under the credit default swap contract would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap contract. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk, either as the protection seller or as the protection buyer, is the fair value of the
| | | | | | |
Notes to consolidated financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Alternative Strategies Fund | | | 39 | |
contract. 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.
If the Fund is the seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will pay to the buyer of protection the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. If the Fund is the buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will receive from the seller of protection the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
Any premiums paid or received on the transactions are recorded as an asset or liability on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities and amortized. The value of the swap contract is marked-to-market daily based on quotations from an independent pricing service or an independent broker-dealer and any change in value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Periodic payments made or received are recorded as realized gains or losses. In addition, payments received or made as a result of a credit event or termination of the contract are recognized as realized gains or losses.
Certain credit default swap contracts entered into by the Fund provide for conditions that result in events of default or termination that enable the counterparty to the agreement to cause an early termination of the transactions under those agreements.
Total return swaps
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may enter into total return swap contracts for hedging or speculative purposes. Total return swaps involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return, both based on notional amounts. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Fund will receive a payment from, or make a payment to, the counterparty.
The value of the swap contract is marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from an independent pricing service or an independent broker-dealer and any change in value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Periodic payments made or received are recorded as realized gains or losses. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparty defaults on its obligation to perform, or if there are unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates or in the price of the underlying security or index. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk is the fair value of the contract. 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.
Certain total return swap contracts entered into by the Fund provide for conditions that result in events of default or termination that enable the counterparty to the agreement to cause an early termination of the transactions under those agreements. Any election by the counterparty to terminate early may impact the amounts reported on the financial statements.
Interest rate swaps
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may enter into interest rate swap contracts for hedging purposes to manage the Fund’s exposure to interest rates. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange between the Fund and another party of their commitments to pay or receive interest based on a notional principal amount.
The value of the swap contract is marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from an independent pricing service or an independent broker-dealer and any change in value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Payments made or received are recorded as realized gains or losses. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparty defaults on its obligation to perform or if there are unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty over the contract’s remaining life. 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.
Certain interest rate swap contracts entered into by the Fund provide for conditions that result in events of default or termination that enable the counterparty to the agreement to cause an early termination of the transactions under those agreements. Any election by the counterparty to terminate early may impact the amounts reported on the financial statements.
Security transactions and income recognition
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined
| | | | |
40 | | Wells Fargo Alternative Strategies Fund | | Notes to consolidated financial statements (unaudited) |
to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 custodian verifies the ex-dividend date. Dividend income from foreign securities is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is not assured.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions from investment companies are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Capital gain distributions from investment companies are treated as realized gains.
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 accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $130,891,975 and the unrealized gains (losses) were as follows:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 15,911,746 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (5,897,659 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 10,014,087 | |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had a qualified late-year ordinary loss of $470,661 which was recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
4. 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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

5. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND OTHER EXPENSES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the applicable subadvisers, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 1.75% and declining to 1.63% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 1.75% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has engaged The Rock Creek Group, LP, Chilton Investment Company, LLC, Ellington Global Asset Management, LLC, Mellon Capital Management Corporation, Passport Capital, LLC, Sirios Capital Management, L.P., and Wellington Management Company LLP to serve as sub-advisers to the Fund. Effective January 19, 2018, Passport Capital, LLC was no longer a subadviser to the Fund. The subadvisers are each entitled to receive from Funds Management an annual subadvisory fee.
The Rock Creek Group, LP, an indirect majority owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo and an affiliate of Funds Management, is entitled to receive a fee at an annual rate starting at 0.60% and declining to 0.55% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.

Prime broker fees and dividend expense on securities sold short are excluded from the expense caps.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
| | | | | | |
Notes to consolidated financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Alternative Strategies Fund | | | 43 | |
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares.

The ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements may have requirements to deliver/deposit securities or cash to/with an exchange or broker-dealer as collateral and allows the Fund to offset, with each counterparty, certain derivative financial instrument’s assets and/or liabilities with collateral held or pledged. Collateral requirements differ by type of derivative. Collateral or margin requirements are set by the broker or exchange clearinghouse for exchange traded derivatives while collateral terms are contract specific for over-the-counter traded derivatives. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Fund under ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements, if any, are reported separately in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities pledged as collateral, if any, are noted in the Consolidated Portfolio of Investments. With respect to balance sheet offsetting, absent an event of default by the counterparty or a termination of the agreement, the reported amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities are not offset across transactions between the Fund and the applicable counterparty. A reconciliation of the gross amounts on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities to the net amounts by derivative type, including any collateral exposure, is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Counterparty | | Gross amounts of assets in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities | | | Amounts subject to netting agreements | | | Collateral received | | | Net amount of assets | |

8. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
9. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Andrew Owen
President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo California Limited-Term Tax-Free Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 2.00%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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). The Fund is exposed to California municipal securities risk and high-yield securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

1 | Historical performance shown for the Institutional Class shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Administrator Class shares, and is not adjusted to reflect the Institutional Class share expenses. If these expenses had been included, returns for the Institutional Class shares would be higher. |
2 | Reflects the expense ratios as stated in the most recent prospectuses. The expense ratios shown are subject to change and may differ from the annualized expense ratios shown in the financial highlights of this report. |
3 | The manager has contractually committed through October 31, 2018, to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers at the amounts shown. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. The expense ratio paid by an investor is the net expense ratio or the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers, as stated in the prospectuses. |
4 | The Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond 1–5 Year Blend Index is the 1–5 Year Blend component of the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index. The Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged index composed of long-term tax-exempt bonds with a minimum credit rating of Baa. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
5 | The Bloomberg Barclays California Municipal Bond 1-5 Year Blend Index is the 1-5 Year Blend Component of the Bloomberg Barclays California Municipal Bond Index. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
6 | Amounts are calculated based on the total investments of the Fund. These amounts are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |
7 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo California Limited-Term Tax-Free Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo California Limited-Term Tax-Free 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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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 recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo California Limited-Term Tax-Free Fund | | | 31 | |
to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $647,483,430 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 12,916,608 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (585,964 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 12,330,644 | |
Capital loss carryforwards that do not expire are required to be utilized prior to capital loss carryforwards that expire. As of June 30, 2017, capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net realized capital gains were as follows through the indicated expiration dates:
| | | | |
2018 | | 2019 | | No expiration |
| | Long-term |
$619,123 | | $110,356 | | $160,531 |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had current year deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $3,208,048 in short-term losses and $531,368 in long-term losses which were recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
| | | | |

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.40% and declining to 0.28% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.39% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.15% and declining to 0.05% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class level administration fee | |
Class A, 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.80% for Class A shares, 1.55% for Class C shares, 0.60%
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo California Limited-Term Tax-Free Fund | | | 33 | |
for Administrator Class shares, and 0.50% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a Distribution Plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charges from purchases of Class A shares and the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class A and Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $204 from the sale of Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A and Class C for the six months ended December 31, 2017
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, 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.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $81,015,000 and $88,465,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $126,378,957 and $182,236,769, respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. CONCENTRATION RISK
The Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers of municipal debt securities located in a single state or territories of the U.S. Therefore, it may be more affected by economic and political developments in that state or region than would be a comparable general tax-exempt fund.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Andrew Owen
President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo California Tax-Free Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.
Periods of investment uncertainty can present challenges, but experience has taught us that maintaining long-term investment goals can be an effective way to plan for the future. To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles. Although diversification cannot guarantee an investment profit or prevent losses, we believe it can be an effective way to manage investment risk and potentially smooth out overall portfolio performance. We encourage investors to know their investments and to understand that appropriate levels of risk-taking may unlock opportunities.
Thank you for choosing to invest with Wells Fargo Funds. We appreciate your confidence in us and remain committed to helping you meet your financial needs.

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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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). The Fund is exposed to California municipal securities risk, high-yield securities risk, and non-diversification risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

1 | Historical performance shown for the Institutional Class shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Administrator Class shares and includes the higher expenses applicable to Administrator Class shares. If these expenses had not been included, returns for Institutional Class shares would be higher. |
2 | Reflects the expense ratios as stated in the most recent prospectuses. The expense ratios shown are subject to change and may differ from the annualized expense ratios shown in the financial highlights of this report. |
3 | The manager has contractually committed through October 31, 2018, to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers at the amounts shown. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. The expense ratio paid by an investor is the net expense ratio or the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers, as stated in the prospectuses. |
4 | The Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged index composed of long-term tax-exempt bonds with a minimum credit rating of Baa. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
5 | The Bloomberg Barclays California Municipal Bond Index is the California component of the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
6 | Amounts are calculated based on the total investments of the Fund. These amounts are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |
7 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo California Tax-Free Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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.

Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo California Tax-Free Fund | | | 25 | |
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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo California Tax-Free Fund (the “Fund”) which is a non-diversified series of the Trust.
Effective at the close of business on December 5, 2016, Class B shares were converted to Class A shares and are no longer offered by the Fund. Information for Class B shares reflected in the financial statements represents activity through December 5, 2016.
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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Futures that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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.
| | | | |
26 | | Wells Fargo California Tax-Free Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
Futures contracts
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against, changes in 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.
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 Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Statement 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 recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $904,313,548 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 78,787,218 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (601,284 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 78,185,934 | |
Capital loss carryforwards that do not expire are required to be utilized prior to capital loss carryforwards that expire. As of June 30, 2017, capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net realized capital gains were as follows through the indicated expiration dates:
| | |
| | No expiration |
2018 | | Short-term |
$4,667,645* | | $6,831,769 |
* | Losses may be subject to certain limitations under Sections 382-384 of the Internal Revenue Code. |
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo California Tax-Free Fund | | | 27 | |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had current year net deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $14,170,573 in short-term losses which was recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted prices (Level 1) | | | Other significant observable inputs (Level 2) | | | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) | | | Total | |

The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.40% and declining to 0.28% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.39% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
| | | | |
28 | | Wells Fargo California Tax-Free Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.20% and declining to 0.10% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class-level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Administrator Class | | | 0.10 | |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.75% for Class A shares, 1.50% for Class C shares, 0.55% for Administrator Class shares, and 0.48% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $5,628 from the sale of Class A shares and $173 in contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A shares for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, Class C, and Administrator Class of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $72,765,000 and $86,415,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $187,925,940 and $135,277,703, respectively.

Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo California Tax-Free Fund | | | 29 | |
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. CONCENTRATION RISK
The Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers of municipal debt securities located in a single state or territories of the U.S. Therefore, it may be more affected by economic and political developments in that state or region than would be a comparable general tax-exempt fund.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Andrew Owen
President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Colorado Tax-Free Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.
Periods of investment uncertainty can present challenges, but experience has taught us that maintaining long-term investment goals can be an effective way to plan for the future. To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles. Although diversification cannot guarantee an investment profit or prevent losses, we believe it can be an effective way to manage investment risk and potentially smooth out overall portfolio performance. We encourage investors to know their investments and to understand that appropriate levels of risk-taking may unlock opportunities.
Thank you for choosing to invest with Wells Fargo Funds. We appreciate your confidence in us and remain committed to helping you meet your financial needs.
Sincerely,

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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). The Fund is exposed to Colorado municipal securities risk and high-yield securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

7 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/ or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo Colorado Tax-Free Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Colorado Tax-Free 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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
Security transactions and income recognition
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Colorado Tax-Free Fund | | | 19 | |
time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $78,735,039 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 5,452,791 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (37,725 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 5,415,066 | |
Capital loss carryforwards that do not expire are required to be utilized prior to capital loss carryforwards that expire. As of June 30, 2017, capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net realized capital gains were as follows through the indicated expiration dates:
| | | | | | |
| | | | No expiration |
2018 | | 2019 | | Short-term | | Long-term |
$548,785 | | $57,793 | | $865,247 | | $15,335 |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had current year net deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $841,243 in short-term losses which was recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
| | | | |

The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.40% and declining to 0.28% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.40% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.20% and declining to 0.10% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Administrator Class | | | 0.10 | |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.85% for Class A shares, 1.60% for Class C shares, 0.60% for Administrator Class shares, and 0.52% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.

Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Colorado Tax-Free Fund | | | 21 | |
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a Distribution Plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $915 from the sale of Class A shares and $63 in contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A shares for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, Class C, and Administrator Class of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $6,660,000 and $10,560,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $4,138,740 and $16,569,955 respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. CONCENTRATION RISK
The Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers of municipal debt securities located in a single state or territories of the U.S. Therefore, it may be more affected by economic and political developments in that state or region than would be a comparable general tax-exempt fund.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo High Yield Municipal Bond Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.
Periods of investment uncertainty can present challenges, but experience has taught us that maintaining long-term investment goals can be an effective way to plan for the future. To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles. Although diversification cannot guarantee an investment profit or prevent losses, we believe it can be an effective way to manage investment risk and potentially smooth out overall portfolio performance. We encourage investors to know their investments and to understand that appropriate levels of risk-taking may unlock opportunities.
Thank you for choosing to invest with Wells Fargo Funds. We appreciate your confidence in us and remain committed to helping you meet your financial needs.
Sincerely,

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. High-yield securities have a greater risk of default and tend to be more volatile than higher-rated debt securities. 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). The Fund is exposed to municipal securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower.

6 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/ or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo High Yield Municipal Bond Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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.

22 | | Wells Fargo High Yield Municipal Bond Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo High Yield Municipal 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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Futures that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value. Interests in non-registered investment companies that are redeemable at net asset value are fair valued normally at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
Security loans
The Fund may lend its 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. The Fund continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. The 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 a securities lending transaction, the net asset value of the 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 the instrument in which collateral is invested. The amount of securities lending activity undertaken by the Fund fluctuates from time to time. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the borrower, the Fund may be prevented from recovering the loaned securities or gaining access to the collateral or may experience delays or costs in doing so. 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.

Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo High Yield Municipal Bond Fund | | | 23 | |
The Fund lends its securities through an unaffiliated securities lending agent. Cash collateral received in connection with its securities lending transactions is invested in Securities Lending Cash Investments, LLC (the “Securities Lending Fund”). The Securities Lending Fund is exempt from registration under Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act and is managed by Funds Management and is subadvised by Wells Capital Management Incorporated (“WellsCap”), an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”). Funds Management receives an advisory fee starting at 0.05% and declining to 0.01% as the average daily net assets of the Securities Lending Fund increase. All of the fees received by Funds Management are paid to WellsCap for its services as subadviser. The Securities Lending 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. Securities Lending Fund investments are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service. Income earned from investment in the Securities Lending Fund is included in income from affiliated securities on the Statement of Operations.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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.
Futures contracts
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against, changes in 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.
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 Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Statement 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 recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $120,331,590 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 5,010,127 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (2,321,593 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 2,688,534 | |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had current year net deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $1,138,012 in short-term losses which were recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted prices (Level 1) | | | Other significant observable inputs (Level 2) | | | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) | | | Total | |

The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo High Yield Municipal Bond Fund | | | 25 | |
for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.50% and declining to 0.38% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. WellsCap is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.35% and declining to 0.20% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class-level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Administrator Class | | | 0.10 | |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.85% for Class A shares, 1.60% for Class C shares, 0.75% for Administrator Class shares, and 0.60% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $997 from the sale of Class A shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A and Class C shares for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, Class C, and Administrator Class of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $3,605,000 and $8,110,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $51,013,731 and $42,396,098, respectively.

6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Intermediate Tax/AMT-Free Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 3.00%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. High-yield securities have a greater risk of default and tend to be more volatile than higher-rated debt securities. 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). The Fund is exposed to municipal securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

The Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged index composed of tax-exempt bonds with maturities between six and eight years and a minimum credit rating of Baa. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
5 | Amounts are calculated based on the total investments of the Fund. These amounts are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |
6 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo Intermediate Tax/AMT-Free Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Intermediate Tax/AMT-Free 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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Futures that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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.
Futures contracts
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against, changes in 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.
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Intermediate Tax/AMT-Free Fund | | | 43 | |
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 Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Statement 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 clearing house, 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 recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $2,395,084,909 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 94,304,247 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (18,342,367 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 75,961,880 | |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had current year deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $8,053,532 in short-term losses and $60,502 in long-term losses which were recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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
| | | | |
44 | | Wells Fargo Intermediate Tax/AMT-Free Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted prices (Level 1) | | | Other significant observable inputs (Level 2) | | | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) | | | Total | |
Assets | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | |
Municipal obligations | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 2,471,046,789 | | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 2,471,046,789 | |
The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.40% and declining to 0.28% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.36% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.20% and declining to 0.10% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class-level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Administrator Class | | | 0.10 | |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Intermediate Tax/AMT-Free Fund | | | 45 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.70% for Class A shares, 1.45% for Class C shares, 0.60% for Administrator Class shares, and 0.45% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $3,064 from the sale of Class A shares and $1,082 in contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A shares for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, Class C, and Administrator Class of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $114,450,000 and $132,265,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $204,621,463 and $185,949,533, respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017 there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Andrew Owen
President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Minnesota Tax -Free Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies.

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed��s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.
Periods of investment uncertainty can present challenges, but experience has taught us that maintaining long-term investment goals can be an effective way to plan for the future. To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website,wellsfargofunds.com.
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 C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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). The Fund is exposed to Minnesota municipal securities risk and high-yield securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/ or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower.

7 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Minnesota Tax-Free 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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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 recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $160,487,019 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 5,162,570 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (569,416 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 4,593,154 | |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had current year deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $48,970 in short-term losses which were recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
| | | | |
22 | | Wells Fargo Minnesota Tax-Free Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted prices (Level 1) | | | Other significant observable inputs (Level 2) | | | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) | | | Total | |

| | | | |
Municipal obligations | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 165,080,173 | | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 165,080,173 | |
The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.40% and declining to 0.28% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.40% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.20% and declining to 0.10% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class-level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Administrator Class | | | 0.10 | |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.85% for Class A shares, 1.60% for Class C shares, 0.60% for Administrator Class shares and 0.52% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A Distribution fee is charged to Class C and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Minnesota Tax-Free Fund | | | 23 | |
the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $245 from the sale of Class A shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A and Class C shares for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, Class C, and Administrator Class of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $4,000,000 and $12,250,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $14,803,542 and $11,634,196, respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. CONCENTRATION RISK
The Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers of municipal debt securities located in a single state or territories of the U.S. Therefore, it may be more affected by economic and political developments in that state or region than would be a comparable general tax-exempt fund.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Municipal Bond Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.
Periods of investment uncertainty can present challenges, but experience has taught us that maintaining long-term investment goals can be an effective way to plan for the future. To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles.

We encourage investors to know their investments and to understand that appropriate levels of risk-taking may unlock opportunities.
Thank you for choosing to invest with Wells Fargo Funds. We appreciate your confidence in us and remain committed to helping you meet your financial needs.
Sincerely,

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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). The Fund is exposed to high-yield securities risk and municipal securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/ or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

3 | The manager has contractually committed through October 31, 2018, to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers at 0.75% for Class A, 1.50% for Class C, 0.60% for Administrator Class, and 0.48% for Institutional Class. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. The expense ratio paid by an investor is the net expense ratio or the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers, as stated in the prospectuses. |

6 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo Municipal Bond Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Municipal Bond Fund (the “Fund”) which is a diversified series of the Trust.
Effective at the close of business on December 5, 2016, Class B shares were converted to Class A shares and are no longer offered by the Fund. Information for Class B shares reflected in the financial statements represents activity through December 5, 2016.
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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Futures that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price.
Swaps are valued at the evaluated price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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.

Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Municipal Bond Fund | | | 39 | |
Futures contracts
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against, changes in 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.
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 Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Statement 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.
Inverse floating-rate obligations
The Fund may participate in inverse floating-rate obligation (“Inverse Floater”) structures whereby a fixed-rate bond (“Fixed-Rate Bond”) purchased by the Fund is transferred to a tender option bond trust (“TOB Trust”). The TOB Trust issues floating-rate notes (“Floating-Rate Notes”) to third-parties, which are collateralized by the Fixed-Rate Bond, and the Fund buys a residual interest in the TOB Trust’s assets and cash flows. The Inverse Floater held by the Fund gives the Fund the right (1) to cause the holders of the Floating-Rate Notes to tender their notes at par, and (2) to have the Fixed-Rate Bond held by the TOB Trust transferred back to the Fund, thereby collapsing the TOB Trust. The Fund accounts for the transaction described above as a secured borrowing by including the Fixed-Rate Bond in its Portfolio of Investments, and by recording the Floating-Rate Notes as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund also records the interest paid on Floating-Rate Notes as interest expense. The Floating-Rate Notes have interest rates that generally reset weekly and their holders have the option to tender their notes for redemption at par at each reset date. Inverse Floaters held by the Fund are securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Credit default swaps
The Fund is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may enter into credit default swap contracts for hedging or speculative purposes to provide or receive a measure of protection against default on a referenced entity, obligation or index or for investment gains. Credit default swaps involve an exchange of a stream of payments for protection against the loss in value of an underlying security or index. Under the terms of the swap, one party acts as a guarantor (referred to as the seller of protection) and receives a periodic stream of payments, provided that there is no credit event, from another party (referred to as the buyer of protection) that is a fixed percentage applied to a notional principal amount over the term of the swap. An index credit default swap references all the names in the index, and if a credit event is triggered, the credit event is settled based on that name’s weight in the index. A credit event includes bankruptcy, failure to pay, obligation default, obligation acceleration, repudiation/moratorium, and restructuring. The Fund may enter into credit default swaps as either the seller of protection or the buyer of protection. As the seller of protection, the Fund is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap and has assumed the risk of default of the underlying security or index. As the buyer of protection, the Fund could be exposed to risks if the seller of the protection defaults on its obligation to perform, or if there are unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates. The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that the Fund as the seller of protection could be required to make under the credit default swap contract would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap contract. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk, either as the protection seller or as the protection buyer, is the fair value of the contract. 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.
If the Fund is the seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will pay to the buyer of protection the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. If the Fund is the buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will receive from the seller of protection the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
Any premiums paid or received on the transactions are recorded as an asset or liability on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and amortized. The value of the swap contract is marked-to-market daily based on quotations from an independent pricing service or an independent broker-dealer and any change in value is recorded as an unrealized gain
| | | | |
40 | | Wells Fargo Municipal Bond Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
or loss. Periodic payments made or received are recorded as realized gains or losses. In addition, payments received or made as a result of a credit event or termination of the contract are recognized as realized gains or losses.
Certain credit default swap contracts entered into by the Fund provide for conditions that result in events of default or termination that enable the counterparty to the agreement to cause an early termination of the transactions under those agreements.
Security transactions and income recognition
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $2,613,083,484 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 142,889,088 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (26,014,990 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 116,874,098 | |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net realized capital gains in the amount of $6,054,673 with $5,924,646 expiring in 2018 and $130,027 expiring in 2019.
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had current year net deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $544,781 in short-term losses which were recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Municipal Bond Fund | | | 41 | |
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Swap contracts consists of unrealized losses and premiums received on swap contracts, which represents the change in the contract’s value from trade date. All other assets and liabilities are reported at their market value at measurement date.
The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.40% and declining to 0.28% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.36% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.20% and declining to 0.10% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.

Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class-level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Administrator Class | | | 0.10 | |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.75% for Class A shares, 1.50% for Class C shares, 0.60% for Administrator Class shares, and 0.48% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $17,661 from the sale of Class A shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A and Class C shares for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, Class C, and Administrator Class of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $117,595,000 and $14,275,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $531,578,646 and $195,855,116, respectively.
6. DERIVATIVE TRANSACTIONS
During the six months ended December 31, 2017, the Fund enters into credit default swap contracts as a substitute for taking a position in the underlying security or basket of securities or to potentially enhance the Fund’s total return. The Fund had an average notional balance on credit default swaps of $16,597,636 during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
The Fund’s credit default swap may contain provisions for early termination in the event the net assets of the Fund declines below specific levels identified by the counterparty. If these levels are triggered, the counterparty may terminate

the transaction and seek payment or request full collateralization of the derivative transactions in net liability positions. On December 31, 2017, the aggregate fair value of credit defaults swap with net asset contingent features that were in a liability position amounted to $865,189.
The fair value, realized gains or losses and change in unrealized gains or losses, if any, on derivative instruments are reflected in the corresponding financial statement captions.
For certain types of derivative transactions, the Fund has entered into International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements (“ISDA Master Agreements”) or similar agreements with approved counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements may have requirements to deliver/deposit securities or cash to/with an exchange or broker-dealer as collateral and allows the Fund to offset, with each counterparty, certain derivative financial instrument’s assets and/or liabilities with collateral held or pledged. Collateral requirements differ by type of derivative. Collateral or margin requirements are set by the broker or exchange clearinghouse for exchange traded derivatives while collateral terms are contract specific for over-the-counter traded derivatives. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Fund under ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements, if any, are reported separately in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities pledged as collateral, if any, are noted in the Portfolio of Investments. With respect to balance sheet offsetting, absent an event of default by the counterparty or a termination of the agreement, the reported amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are not offset across transactions between the Fund and the applicable counterparty. A reconciliation of the gross amounts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities to the net amounts by derivative type, including any collateral exposure, is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Counterparty | | Gross amounts of liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities | | Amounts subject to netting agreements | | Collateral pledged1 | | | Net amount of liabilities | |
JPMorgan | | $4,869,653 | | $0 | | $ | (4,869,653 | ) | | $ | 0 | |
| 1 | Collateral pledged within this table is limited to the collateral for the net transaction with the counterparty. | |
7. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Andrew Owen
President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo North Carolina Tax-Free Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.
Periods of investment uncertainty can present challenges, but experience has taught us that maintaining long-term investment goals can be an effective way to plan for the future. To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles.

We encourage investors to know their investments and to understand that appropriate levels of risk-taking may unlock opportunities.
Thank you for choosing to invest with Wells Fargo 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 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred sales charge assumes the sales charge for the corresponding time period. Institutional Class shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.
Bond values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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). The Fund is exposed to North Carolina municipal securities risk, high-yield securities risk, and non-diversification risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

1 | 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 North Carolina Municipal Bond Fund. |
2 | Reflects the expense ratios as stated in the most recent prospectuses. The expense ratios shown are subject to change and may differ from the annualized expense ratios shown in the financial highlights of this report. |
3 | The manager has contractually committed through October 31, 2018, to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers at the amounts shown. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. The expense ratio paid by an investor is the net expense ratio or the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers, as stated in the prospectuses. |
4 | The Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged index composed of long-term tax-exempt bonds with a minimum credit rating of Baa. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
5 | The Bloomberg Barclays North Carolina Municipal Bond Index includes investment-grade, tax-exempt, and fixed-rate bonds issued in the state of North Carolina; all securities have long-term maturities (greater than two years) and are selected from issues larger than $50 million. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
6 | Amounts are calculated based on the total investments of the Fund. These amounts are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |
7 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/ or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo North Carolina Tax-Free Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo North Carolina Tax-Free Fund (the “Fund”) which is a non-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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
Security transactions and income recognition
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.

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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $66,526,672 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |

Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted prices (Level 1) | | | Other significant observable inputs (Level 2) | | | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) | | | Total | |

The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.40% and declining to 0.28% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.40% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.20% and declining to 0.10% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class-level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.85% for Class A shares, 1.60% for Class C shares, and 0.54% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A Distribution fee is charged to Class C and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $30 from the sale of Class A shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A and Class C shares for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A and Class C of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.

Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $2,000,000 and $2,600,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $3,146,245 and $5,271,894, respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. CONCENTRATION RISK
The Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers of municipal debt securities located in a single state or territories of the U.S. Therefore, it may be more affected by economic and political developments in that state or region than would be a comparable general tax-exempt fund.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Andrew Owen
President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Pennsylvania Tax-Free Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred sales charge assumes the sales charge for the corresponding time period. Institutional Class shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.
Bond values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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). The Fund is exposed to Pennsylvania municipal securities risk and high-yield securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

2 | Reflects the expense ratios as stated in the most recent prospectuses. The expense ratios shown are subject to change and may differ from the annualized expense ratios shown in the financial highlights of this report. |
3 | The manager has contractually committed through October 31, 2018, to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers at the amounts shown. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. The expense ratio paid by an investor is the net expense ratio or the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers, as stated in the prospectuses. |

5 | The Bloomberg Barclays Pennsylvania Municipal Bond Index is a Pennsylvania-specific total return index. The index is composed of Pennsylvania bonds. The bonds are all investment-grade, fixed-rate, long-term maturities (greater than two years) and are selected from issues larger than $50 million dated since January 1984. Bonds are added to the index and weighted and updated monthly, with a one-month lag. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
6 | Amounts are calculated based on the total investments of the Fund. These amounts are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |
7 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/ or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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.

Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Pennsylvania Tax-Free Fund | | | 17 | |
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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Pennsylvania Tax-Free Fund (the “Fund”) which is a diversified series of the Trust.
Effective at the close of business on December 5, 2016, Class B shares were converted to Class A shares and are no longer offered by the Fund. Information for Class B shares reflected in the financial statements represents activity through December 5, 2016.
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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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 recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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
| | | | |
18 | | Wells Fargo Pennsylvania Tax-Free Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
may be reduced by writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $147,630,320 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 8,428,650 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (137,619 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 8,291,031 | |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had capital loss carryforwards which consist of $829,936 in short-term capital losses.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
| | | | | | |

The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted prices (Level 1) | | | Other significant observable inputs (Level 2) | | | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) | | | Total | |

Total assets | | $ | 206,262 | | | $ | 155,715,089 | | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 155,921,351 | |
The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.40% and declining to 0.28% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.40% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.20% and declining to 0.10% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class-level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.74% for Class A shares, 1.49% for Class C shares, and 0.49% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
| | | | |
20 | | Wells Fargo Pennsylvania Tax-Free Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $2,261 from the sale of Class A shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A and Class C for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A and Class C of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $2,750,000 in interfund sales during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $9,048,077 and $14,706,474, respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. CONCENTRATION RISK
The Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers of municipal debt securities located in a single state or territories of the U.S. Therefore, it may be more affected by economic and political developments in that state or region than would be a comparable general tax-exempt fund.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Andrew Owen
President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.

To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 2.00%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. High-yield securities have a greater risk of default and tend to be more volatile than higher-rated debt securities. 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). The Fund is exposed to high-yield securities risk and municipal securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap.

6 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/ or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Short-Term Municipal 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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Futures that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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.
Futures contracts
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against, changes in 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.
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 Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Statement of
| | | | |
40 | | Wells Fargo Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
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 clearing house, 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 recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $5,083,972,361 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 16,764,949 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (33,766,898 | ) |
Net unrealized losses | | $ | (17,001,949 | ) |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had capital loss carryforwards which consisted of $4,822,983 in long-term capital losses.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund | | | 41 | |
∎ | | 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 investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted prices (Level 1) | | | Other significant observable inputs (Level 2) | | | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) | | | Total | |
Assets | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | |
Municipal obligations | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 4,998,569,032 | | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 4,998,569,032 | |
Other | | | 0 | | | | 68,401,380 | | | | 0 | | | | 68,401,380 | |
Total assets | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 5,066,970,412 | | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 5,066,970,412 | |
The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.35% and declining to 0.255% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.33% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.15% and declining to 0.05% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class-level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Administrator Class | | | 0.10 | |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.63% for Class A shares, 1.38% for Class C shares, 0.60% for Administrator Class shares, and 0.40% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.

Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares.

The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $148,240,000 and $374,405,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $1,422,861,289 and $765,541,555, respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Andrew Owen
President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Strategic Municipal Bond Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 4.00%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. High-yield securities have a greater risk of default and tend to be more volatile than higher-rated debt securities. 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). The Fund is exposed to municipal securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

1 | Historical performance shown for the Institutional Class shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Administrator Class shares, and includes the higher expenses applicable to the Administrator Class shares. If these expenses had not been included, returns for Institutional Class shares would be higher. 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 Strategic Municipal Bond Fund. |
2 | Reflects the expense ratios as stated in the most recent prospectuses. The expense ratios shown are subject to change and may differ from the annualized expense ratios shown in the financial highlights of this report. |
3 | The manager has contractually committed through October 31, 2018, to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers at 0.82% for Class A, 1.57% for Class C, 0.68% for Administrator Class, and 0.48% for Institutional Class. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. The expense ratio paid by an investor is the net expense ratio or the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers, as stated in the prospectuses. |
4 | The Bloomberg Barclays Short-Intermediate Municipal Bond Index is a rules-based, market-value-weighted index composed of publicly traded municipal bonds that cover the U.S. dollar–denominated short-term tax-exempt bond market, including state and local general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, insured bonds, and prefunded bonds. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
5 | Amounts are calculated based on the total investments of the Fund. These amounts are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |
6 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/ or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo Strategic Municipal Bond Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Strategic Municipal Bond Fund (the “Fund”) which is a diversified series of the Trust.
Effective at the close of business on May 5, 2017, Class B shares were converted to Class A shares and are no longer offered by the Fund. Information for Class B shares reflected in the financial statements represents activity through May 5, 2017.
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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Equity securities and futures that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price. If no sale occurs on the principal exchange or market that day, a fair value price will be determined in accordance with the Fund’s Valuation Procedures.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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.

Futures contracts
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against, changes in 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.
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 Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Statement 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.
Credit default swaps
The Fund is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may enter into credit default swap contracts for hedging or speculative purposes to provide or receive a measure of protection against default on a referenced entity, obligation or index or for investment gains. Credit default swaps involve an exchange of a stream of payments for protection against the loss in value of an underlying security or index. Under the terms of the swap, one party acts as a guarantor (referred to as the seller of protection) and receives a periodic stream of payments, provided that there is no credit event, from another party (referred to as the buyer of protection) that is a fixed percentage applied to a notional principal amount over the term of the swap. An index credit default swap references all the names in the index, and if a credit event is triggered, the credit event is settled based on that name’s weight in the index. A credit event includes bankruptcy, failure to pay, obligation default, obligation acceleration, repudiation/moratorium, and restructuring. The Fund may enter into credit default swaps as either the seller of protection or the buyer of protection. As the seller of protection, the Fund is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap and has assumed the risk of default of the underlying security or index. As the buyer of protection, the Fund could be exposed to risks if the seller of the protection defaults on its obligation to perform, or if there are unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates. The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that the Fund as the seller of protection could be required to make under the credit default swap contract would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap contract. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk, either as the protection seller or as the protection buyer, is the fair value of the contract. 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.
If the Fund is the seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will pay to the buyer of protection the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. If the Fund is the buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will receive from the seller of protection the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
Any premiums paid or received on the transactions are recorded as an asset or liability on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and amortized. The value of the swap contract is marked-to-market daily based on quotations from an independent pricing service or an independent broker-dealer and any change in value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Periodic payments made or received are recorded as realized gains or losses. In addition, payments received or made as a result of a credit event or termination of the contract are recognized as realized gains or losses.
Certain credit default swap contracts entered into by the Fund provide for conditions that result in events of default or termination that enable the counterparty to the agreement to cause an early termination of the transactions under those agreements.
Security transactions and income recognition
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $1,974,870,826 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 21,565,309 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (12,430,361 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 9,134,948 | |
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Swap contracts consists of unrealized losses and premiums received on swap contracts, which represents the change in the contract’s value from trade date. All other assets and liabilities are reported at their market value at measurement date.
The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund.

Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Strategic Municipal Bond Fund | | | 39 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.82% for Class A shares, 1.57% for Class C shares, 0.68% for Administrator Class shares, and 0.48% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares. In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares.

The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, Class C, and Administrator Class of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $94,985,000 and $137,375,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $ 517,363,826 and $ 195,569,329, respectively.
6. DERIVATIVE TRANSACTIONS
During the six months ended December 31, 2017, the Fund enters into credit default swap contracts as a substitute for taking a position in the underlying security or basket of securities or to potentially enhance the Fund’s total return. The Fund had an average notional balance on credit default swaps of $ $11,969,592 during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
The Fund’s credit default swap may contain provisions for early termination in the event the net assets of the Fund declines below specific levels identified by the counterparty. If these levels are triggered, the counterparty may terminate the transaction and seek payment or request full collateralization of the derivative transactions in net liability positions. On December 31, 2017, the aggregate fair value of credit defaults swap with net asset contingent features that were in a liability position amounted to $3,055,484.
The fair value, realized gains or losses and change in unrealized gains or losses, if any, on derivative instruments are reflected in the corresponding financial statement captions.
For certain types of derivative transactions, the Fund has entered into International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements (“ISDA Master Agreements”) or similar agreements with approved counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements may have requirements to deliver/deposit securities or cash to/with an exchange or broker-dealer as collateral and allows the Fund to offset, with each counterparty, certain derivative financial instrument’s assets and/or liabilities with collateral held or pledged. Collateral requirements differ by type of derivative. Collateral or margin requirements are set by the broker or exchange clearinghouse for exchange traded derivatives while collateral terms are contract specific for over-the-counter traded derivatives. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Fund under ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements, if any, are reported separately in the
| | | | |

Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities pledged as collateral, if any, are noted in the Portfolio of Investments. With respect to balance sheet offsetting, absent an event of default by the counterparty or a termination of the agreement, the reported amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are not offset across transactions between the Fund and the applicable counterparty. A reconciliation of the gross amounts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities to the net amounts by derivative type, including any collateral exposure, is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Counterparty | | Gross amounts of liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities | | Amounts subject to netting agreements | | Collateral pledged1 | | | Net amount of liabilities | |
JPMorgan | | $3,055,484 | | $0 | | $ | (3,055,484 | ) | | $ | 0 | |
| 1 | Collateral pledged within this table is limited to the collateral for the net transaction with the counterparty. | |
7. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Ultra Short-Term Municipal Income Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.
Periods of investment uncertainty can present challenges, but experience has taught us that maintaining long-term investment goals can be an effective way to plan for the future. To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles. Although diversification cannot guarantee an investment profit or prevent losses, we believe it can be an effective way to manage investment risk and potentially smooth out overall portfolio performance. We encourage investors to know their investments and to understand that appropriate levels of risk-taking may unlock opportunities.
Thank you for choosing to invest with Wells Fargo Funds. We appreciate your confidence in us and remain committed to helping you meet your financial needs.
Sincerely,

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 2.00%. For Class C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred 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 values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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). The Fund is exposed to high-yield securities risk and municipal securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/ or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

‡ | Mr. Johns became a portfolio manager of the Fund on November 1, 2017. |
1 | Effective June 20, 2008, the Advisor Class was renamed Class A and modified to assume the features and attributes of Class A. Performance shown for the Class A shares through June 19, 2008 includes Advisor Class expenses. 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 Administrator Class shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the higher expenses applicable to Administrator Class shares. |
2 | Reflects the expense ratios as stated in the most recent prospectuses. The expense ratios shown are subject to change and may differ from the annualized expense ratios shown in the financial highlights of this report. |
3 | The manager has contractually committed through October 31, 2018, to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers at the amounts shown. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the expense cap. Without this cap, the Fund’s returns would have been lower. The expense ratio paid by an investor is the net expense ratio or the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers, as stated in the prospectuses. |
4 | Source: Wells Fargo Funds Management LLC. The Ultra Short-Term Municipal Income Blended Index is weighted 50% in the Bloomberg Barclays 1-Year Municipal Bond Index and 50% in the iMoneyNet Tax-Free National Institutional Money Market Funds Average. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
5 | The Bloomberg Barclays 1-Year Municipal Bond Index is the one-year component of the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index, which is an unmanaged index composed of long-term tax-exempt bonds with a minimum credit rating of Baa. You cannot invest directly in an index. |
6 | iMoneyNet Tax-Free National Institutional Money Market Funds Average is the return of an unmanaged group of money market funds. You cannot invest directly in this average. |
7 | Amounts are calculated based on the total investments of the Fund. These amounts are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |
8 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/ or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo Ultra Short-Term Municipal Income Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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.

38 | | Wells Fargo Ultra Short-Term Municipal Income Fund | | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Ultra Short-Term Municipal Income 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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Futures that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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.
Futures contracts
The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against, changes in 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.
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 Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Statement of Operations as
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Ultra Short-Term Municipal Income Fund | | | 39 | |
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 recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $5,475,004,123 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 4,596,192 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (25,150,082 | ) |
Net unrealized losses | | $ | (20,553,890 | ) |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had current year deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $3,906,834 in short-term losses and $4,887,432 in long-term losses which were recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
| | | | |

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.35% and declining to 0.255% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.33% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.15% and declining to 0.05% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Administrator Class | | | 0.10 | |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.67% for Class A shares, 1.42% for Class C shares, 0.60%
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Ultra Short-Term Municipal Income Fund | | | 41 | |
for Administrator Class shares, and 0.37% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $1,007 from the sale of Class A shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A and Class C shares for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A, Class C, and Administrator Class of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $591,375,000 and $56,090,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $1,443,584,015 and $861,506,833, respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.

Andrew Owen
President
Wells Fargo Funds
In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Wisconsin Tax-Free Fund for the six-month period that ended December 31, 2017. In a predominantly improving global economic environment, global stocks delivered strong results; bond markets had smaller but positive results as well. U.S. and international stocks delivered similar results, with returns of 11.42% and 11.48%, respectively, for the six-month period, as measured by the S&P 500 Index1 and the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net)2, respectively; within fixed income, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index3 returned 1.24% and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index4 returned 1.82%.
As global growth improved in the third quarter of 2017, investment markets generally advanced.
Most stock markets worldwide moved higher during the quarter and ended the period at or near all-time highs. Moderate acceleration in global economic growth was supported by improving corporate earnings, low inflation pressure, and still-low interest rates. Corporate earnings reports were favorable overall as companies continued to benefit from healthy operating leverage. While North Korea’s recent missile launches and nuclear testing raised serious concerns around the world, the heightened geopolitical risk had relatively minimal impact on the quarter’s stock returns. In the U.S., economic data released during the quarter reflected a generally healthy economy. Second-quarter economic output grew at a 3.1% annual rate, and consumers displayed more willingness to spend. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained the target range for the federal funds rate at 1.00% to 1.25%, noting that inflation had remained below the Fed’s 2.00% objective. However, the Fed also stated the possibility of one more 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate by the end of 2017 and announced plans to begin the process of unwinding its $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October. Outside the U.S., stocks in the Asia Pacific region benefited from solid earnings reports and investors’ willingness to take on risk despite the rising tensions between North Korea and the U.S. In Europe, markets were supported by better-than-expected economic growth, which led to narrowing of the gap between Europe’s growth rate and that of the U.S. In emerging markets, many countries benefited from stronger currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
Positive economic and market news continued through the fourth quarter.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, stock markets followed a steady, upward trajectory with no meaningful pullbacks, similar to their paths during the previous three quarters of the year. The extended rally was driven largely by reports of strong earnings and revenue surprises from many companies. Synchronous economic expansion worldwide with mild inflation provided a favorable environment for markets to rise with minimal volatility. Data released during the quarter reflected a

healthy U.S. economy. Third-quarter economic output grew at a 3.2% annual rate, just ahead of the second quarter’s 3.1% pace. Hiring remained solid during the quarter; the hiring pace pushed the unemployment rate down to a 17-year low of 4.1% in October, and it remained at 4.1% for both November and December. Fed officials began unwinding the Fed’s $4.5 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets in October as planned, and in December they raised the target for the federal funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. As a result, long-term interest rates in the U.S. continued trending upward, although the 10-year rate remained below 2.5%. Outside the U.S., economies continued to strengthen. In December, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) reported that the global economy has been expanding at its fastest rate since 2010; all 45 countries the OECD follows were on track to expand for 2017. International economies have benefited from catalysts such as economic stimulus, improving employment, increased investment, and accelerated trade growth.
Don’t let short-term uncertainty derail long-term investment goals.
Periods of investment uncertainty can present challenges, but experience has taught us that maintaining long-term investment goals can be an effective way to plan for the future. To help you create a sound strategy based on your personal goals and risk tolerance, Wells Fargo Funds offers more than 100 mutual funds spanning a wide range of asset classes and investment styles. Although diversification cannot guarantee an investment profit or prevent losses, we believe it can be an effective way to manage investment risk and potentially smooth out overall portfolio performance. We encourage investors to know their investments and to understand that appropriate levels of risk-taking may unlock opportunities.
Thank you for choosing to invest with Wells Fargo Funds. We appreciate your confidence in us and remain committed to helping you meet your financial needs.
Sincerely,

Andrew Owen

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect 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, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund’s website, wellsfargofunds.com.
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 C shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 1.00%. Performance including a contingent deferred sales charge assumes the sales charge for the corresponding time period. Institutional Class shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.
Bond values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. 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). The Fund is exposed Wisconsin and Puerto Rico municipal securities risk, high-yield securities, and non-diversification risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

7 | The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/ or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the Fund’s portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the total market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. |

6 | | Wells Fargo Wisconsin Tax-Free Fund | | Fund expenses (unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges (if any) on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing 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 July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
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) and contingent deferred sales charges. 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”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Wells Fargo Wisconsin Tax-Free Fund (the “Fund”) which is a non-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
All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.
Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.
Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Management Valuation Team of Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC (“Funds Management”). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Management Valuation Team which may include items for ratification.
Valuations of fair valued securities are compared to the next actual sales price when available, or other appropriate market values, to assess the continued appropriateness of the fair valuation methodologies used. These securities are fair valued on a day-to-day basis, taking into consideration changes to appropriate market information and any significant changes to the inputs considered in the valuation process until there is a readily available price provided on an exchange or by an independent pricing service. Valuations received from an independent pricing service or independent broker-dealer quotes are periodically validated by comparisons to most recent trades and valuations provided by other independent pricing services in addition to the review of prices by the manager and/or subadviser. Unobservable inputs used in determining fair valuations are identified based on the type of security, taking into consideration factors utilized by market participants in valuing the investment, knowledge about the issuer and the current market environment.
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 in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. 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 recorded on the basis of identified cost.
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 been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. 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 are accrued daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital.
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 and tax-exempt 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. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $134,108,546 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:
| | | | |
Gross unrealized gains | | $ | 4,264,233 | |
Gross unrealized losses | | | (544,422 | ) |
Net unrealized gains | | $ | 3,719,811 | |
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had capital loss carryforwards which consist of $8,353 in short-term capital losses.
As of June 30, 2017, the Fund had current year net deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $584,622 in short-term losses which was recognized on the first day of the current fiscal year.
Class allocations
The separate classes of shares offered by the Fund differ principally in applicable sales charges, distribution, shareholder servicing, and administration fees. Class specific expenses are charged directly to that share class. Investment income, common expenses, and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
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:
∎ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
∎ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
∎ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
| | | | |

The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Quoted prices (Level 1) | | | Other significant observable inputs (Level 2) | | | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) | | | Total | |

| | | | |
Municipal obligations | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 137,828,357 | | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 137,828,357 | |
The Fund recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. At December 31, 2017, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fee
Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”), is the manager of the Fund and provides advisory and fund-level administrative services under an investment management agreement. Under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is responsible for, among other services, implementing the investment objectives and strategies of the Fund, supervising the subadviser, providing fund-level administrative services in connection with the Fund’s operations, and providing any other fund-level administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Fund. As compensation for its services under the investment management agreement, Funds Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee starting at 0.40% and declining to 0.28% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of 0.40% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Funds Management has retained the services of a subadviser to provide daily portfolio management to the Fund. The fee for subadvisory services is borne by Funds Management. Wells Capital Management Incorporated, an affiliate of Funds Management and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo, is the subadviser to the Fund and is entitled to receive a fee from Funds Management at an annual rate starting at 0.20% and declining to 0.10% as the average daily net assets of the Fund increase.
Administration fees
Under a class-level administration agreement, Funds Management provides class-level administrative services to the Fund, which includes paying fees and expenses for services provided by the transfer agent, sub-transfer agents, omnibus account servicers and record-keepers. As compensation for its services under the class-level administration agreement, Funds Management receives an annual fee which is calculated based on the average daily net assets of each class as follows:
| | | | |
| | Class-level administration fee | |
Class A, Class C | | | 0.16 | % |
Institutional Class | | | 0.08 | |
Funds Management has contractually waived and/or reimbursed management 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. Funds Management has committed through October 31, 2018 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund’s expenses at 0.70% for Class A shares, 1.45% for Class C shares, and 0.52% for Institutional Class shares. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.
Distribution fee
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class C shares of the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. A distribution fee is charged to Class C shares and paid to Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (“Funds Distributor”), the principal underwriter, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares.
In addition, Funds Distributor is entitled to receive the front-end sales charge from the purchase of Class A shares and a contingent deferred sales charge on the redemption of certain Class A shares. Funds Distributor is also entitled to receive
| | | | | | |
Notes to financial statements (unaudited) | | Wells Fargo Wisconsin Tax-Free Fund | | | 21 | |
the contingent deferred sales charges from redemptions of Class C shares. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, Funds Distributor received $579 from the sale of Class A shares. No contingent deferred sales charges were incurred by Class A and Class C shares for the six months ended December 31, 2017.
Shareholder servicing fees
The Trust has entered into contracts with one or more shareholder servicing agents, whereby Class A and Class C of the Fund are charged a fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each respective class.
A portion of these total shareholder servicing fees were paid to affiliates of Wells Fargo.
Interfund transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain other Wells Fargo affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $6,130,000 and $15,310,000 in interfund purchases and sales, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2017.
5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 were $8,214,806 and $23,539,812, respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS
The Trust (excluding the money market funds and certain other funds) and Wells Fargo Variable Trust are parties to a $280,000,000 revolving credit agreement 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, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund. Prior to August 29, 2017, the revolving credit agreement amount was $250,000,000.
For the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.
7. CONCENTRATION RISK
The Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers of municipal debt securities located in a single state or territories of the U.S. Therefore, it may be more affected by economic and political developments in that state or region than would be a comparable general tax-exempt fund.
8. INDEMNIFICATION
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights 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.
