Global X Permanent ETF |
Global X Permanent ETF (ticker: PERM)
The Global X Permanent ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Solactive Permanent Index (the “Underlying Index”). The Fund generally seeks to replicate the Underlying Index but may at times invest in a representative sample of securities that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Underlying Index and as a result may or may not hold all the securities that are included in the Underlying Index.
The Underlying Index tracks the performance of four asset class categories that are designed to perform differently across different economic environments, as defined by Solactive AG (the “Index Provider”). On each rebalance, the Underlying Index allocates 25% each to four asset class categories, as follows:
Asset Class | | Allocation | |
Stocks: | | | | |
· U.S. Large Cap Stocks | | | 9 | % |
· U.S. Small Cap Stocks | | | 3 | % |
· International Stocks | | | 3 | % |
· U.S. Real Estate Stocks | | | 5 | % |
· U.S. and Foreign Natural Resource Stocks | | | 5 | % |
U.S. Treasury Bonds (Long-Term) | | | 25 | % |
(remaining maturity greater than 20 years) | | | | |
U.S. Treasury Bills and Bonds (Short-Term) | | | 25 | % |
(remaining maturity of less than three years) | | | | |
Gold & Silver: | | | | |
· Physical Gold ETFs and ETCs | | | 20 | % |
· Physical Silver ETFs and ETCs | | | 5 | % |
Total | | | 100 | % |
For the period from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013 (the “reporting period”), the Fund decreased 5.77%, while the Underlying Index decreased 5.82%. The Fund commenced the reporting period with a net asset value of $24.77 per share on July 1, 2012 and ended the reporting period with a net asset value of $23.15 on June 30, 2013.

The performance data quoted herein represents past performance and the return and value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that, when redeemed, may be worth less than its original cost. Past performance is no guarantee of future performance and should not be considered as a representation of the future results of the Fund. The Fund's performance assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and all capital gains. Index returns assume reinvestment of dividends and, unlike a Fund's returns, do not reflect any fees or expenses. If such fees and expenses were included in the index returns, the performance would have been lower. Please note that one cannot invest directly in an unmanaged index.
There are no assurances that the Fund will meet its stated objectives.
The Fund’s holdings and allocations are subject to change and should not be considered recommendations to buy individual securities.
Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Global X Top Guru Holdings Index ETF (ticker: GURU)
The Global X Top Guru Holdings Index ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Solactive Top Guru Holdings Index (the “Underlying Index”).

The Underlying Index is comprised of the top U.S. listed equity positions reported on Form 13F by a select group of entities that Solactive AG (the “Index Provider”) characterizes as hedge funds. Hedge funds are selected from a pool of thousands of privately offered pooled investment vehicles based on the size of their reported equity holdings and the efficacy of replicating their publicly disclosed positions. Hedge funds must have minimum reported holdings of $500 million in their form 13F to be considered for the Underlying index. Additional filters are applied to eliminate hedge funds that have high turnover rates for equity holdings.

Notes to Financial Statements |
June 30, 2013 |
1. ORGANIZATION
The Global X Funds (the "Trust") is a Delaware Statutory Trust formed on March 6, 2008. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open- end management investment company with seventy-nine portfolios (thirty-five of which were operational) as of June 30, 2013. The financial statements herein and the related notes pertain to the Global X Permanent ETF, Global X Top Guru Holdings Index ETF and Global X SuperIncome Preferred ETF (each a “Fund”, collectively, the “Funds”). Each Fund is non-diversified.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.
USE OF ESTIMATES — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and could have a material impact to the Funds.
SECURITY VALUATION — Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ), including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded (or at approximately 4:00 pm if a security’s primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent mean between the quoted bid and asked prices (absent both bid and asked prices on such exchange, the bid price may be used).
For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates. Prices for most securities held in the Funds are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. If a security price cannot be obtained from an independent, third-party pricing agent, the Funds seek to obtain a bid price from at least one independent broker.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
SECURITY VALUATION (continued)
Securities for which market prices are not "readily available" are valued in accordance with Fair Value Procedures established by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Funds’ Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Committee (the “Committee”) designated by the Board. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; or trading of the security is subject to local government-imposed restrictions. In addition, the Funds may fair value their securities if an event that may materially affect the value of the Funds’ securities that traded outside of the United States (a “Significant Event”) has occurred between the time of the security's last close and the time that the Funds calculate their net asset value. A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. Events that may be Significant Events include: government actions, natural disasters, armed conflict, acts of terrorism and significant market fluctuations. If Global X Management Company LLC (“Adviser”) becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which the Funds calculate net asset value, it may request that a Committee meeting be called. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration all relevant information reasonably available to the Committee. As of June 30, 2013, there were no securities priced using the Fair Value Procedures.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date
Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in non-active markets, quoted prices for similar investments, fair value of investments for which the Funds have the ability to fully redeem tranches at net asset value as of the measurement date or within the near-term, and short-term investments valued at amortized cost)
Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments, fair value of investments for which the Funds do not have the ability to fully redeem tranches at net asset value as of the measurement date or within the near-term)

June 30, 2013 |
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
SECURITY VALUATION (concluded)
Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.
For the year or period ended June 30, 2013, there have been no significant changes to the Funds’ fair valuation methodologies.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES — It is each Fund’s intention to qualify or continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes by complying with the appropriate provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, no provisions for Federal income taxes have been made in the financial statements.
The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is "more-likely-than-not" (i.e., greater than 50 percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds did not record any tax provisions in the current period. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last three tax year ends, as applicable), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
As of and during the year or period ended June 30, 2013, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year or period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (concluded)
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME — Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are based on specific identification. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis from the settlement date.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION — The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments on the Statement of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS — The Funds distribute their net investment income on a pro rata basis. Any net realized capital gains are distributed annually. All distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
INVESTMENTS IN REITS — With respect to the Funds, dividend income is recorded based on the income included in distributions received from the Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) investments using published REIT reclassifications including some management estimates when actual amounts are not available. Distributions received in excess of these estimated amounts are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments or reclassified to capital gains. The actual amounts of income, return of capital, and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after its fiscal year end, and may differ from the estimated amounts.
CREATION UNITS — The Funds issue and redeem shares (“Shares”) at Net Asset Value (“NAV”), and only in large blocks of Shares (each block of Shares for a Fund is called a “Creation Unit” or multiples thereof). Purchasers of Creation Units (“Authorized Participants”) at NAV must pay a standard creation transaction fee per transaction (“Transaction Fee”). The fee is a single charge and will be the same regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased by an investor on the same day. An Authorized Participant who holds Creation Units and wishes to redeem at NAV would also pay a standard Redemption Fee per transaction on the date of such redemption, regardless of the number of Creation Units redeemed that day.
If a Creation Unit is purchased or redeemed for cash, a higher Transaction Fee or Redemption Fee, respectively, will be charged. The following table discloses Creation Unit breakdown:
| | Creation | | | Transaction | | | | | | Redemption | |
| | Unit Shares | | | Fee | | | Value | | | Fee | |
Global X Permanent ETF | | | 50,000 | | | $ | 1,000 | | | $ | 1,157,500 | | | $ | 1,000 | |

5. TAX INFORMATION
The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As a result investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, they are charged or credited to undistributed (accumulated) net investment income (loss), accumulated net realized gain (loss) or paid-in capital, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise.
The following differences, primarily attributable to foreign currency, equalization, passive foreign investment companies (“PFIC”) gain reclass and redemption in-kind gains or losses have been reclassified to/from the following accounts during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.
| | | | | Accumulated | | | | |

6. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS
The Funds invest in securities of foreign issuers in several countries. These investments may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the U.S. as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of future political and economic developments and the level of governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets in the respective countries.
The securities markets of emerging countries are less liquid and subject to greater price volatility, and have a smaller market capitalization, than the U.S. securities markets. In certain countries, there may be fewer publicly traded securities and the market may be dominated by a few issuers or sectors. Issuers and securities markets in such countries are not subject to as extensive and frequent accounting, financial and other reporting requirements or as comprehensive government regulations as are issuers and securities markets in the U.S. In particular, the assets and profits appearing on the financial statements of emerging country issuers may not reflect their financial position or results of operations in the same manner as financial statements for U.S. issuers. Substantially less information may be publicly available about emerging country issuers than is available about issuers in the U.S.
The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they invest. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated. The Funds accrue and apply such taxes to net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized gains as income and/or capital gains are earned.
The Global X Permanent ETF may hold Exchange Traded Commodities (“ETC”) to gain exposure to gold and silver. As a result, the Fund is subject to the same risks as the underlying ETCs. While the risks of owning shares of an underlying ETC generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying commodities the ETC is designed to track, lack of liquidity in an underlying ETC can result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio securities. The Fund will pay brokerage commissions in connection with the purchase and sale of shares of ETCs. ETCs that invest in commodities may be, or may become, subject to regulatory trading limits that could hurt the value of their securities and could affect the Fund’s ability to pursue its investment program. Additionally, ETCs are not registered under the Investment Company of 1940 Act and, therefore, are not subject to the regulatory scheme and investor protections of the Investment Company Act of 1940.
The Funds use a replication strategy. A replication strategy is an indexing strategy that involves investing in the securities of the Underlying Index in approximately the same proportions as in the Underlying Indices. The Funds may utilize a representative sampling strategy with respect to their Underlying Index when a replication strategy might be detrimental to their shareholders, such as when there are practical difficulties or substantial costs involved in compiling a portfolio of equity securities to follow its Underlying Index, or, in certain instances, when securities in the Underlying Indices become temporarily illiquid, unavailable or less liquid, or due to legal restrictions (such as diversification requirements that apply to the Funds but not the Underlying Indices).

7. AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT SHARES
At June 30, 2013, the total Shares outstanding that were held by Authorized Participants were as follows. The Authorized Participants have entered into an agreement with the Funds’ Distributor.
| | | | Percentage of | |
| | Authorized | | Shares | |
| | Participants | | Outstanding | |
Global X Permanent ETF | | 4 | | 100% | |
Global X Top Guru Holdings Index ETF | | 4 | | 100% | |
Global X SuperIncome Preferred ETF | | 3 | | 100% | |
Pursuant to the Trust’s organizational documents, the Trustees of the Trust and the Trust’s officers are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties.
8. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
The Funds enter into contracts in the normal course of business that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior gains or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Funds’ existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
9. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
In June 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an update (“ASU 2013-08”) to ASC Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies (“Topic 946”). ASU 2013-08 amends the guidance in Topic 946 for determining whether an entity qualifies as an investment company and requires certain additional disclosures. ASU 2013-08 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2013. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of ASU 2013-08 on the Funds’ financial statements.
10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Funds have evaluated the need for additional disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events.
Effective July 1, 2013, the fiscal year-end of the Global X Permanent ETF, Global X Top Guru Holdings Index ETF and Global X SuperIncome Preferred ETF changed from June 30th to October 31st.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
|
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of Global X Funds
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Global X Permanent ETF, Global X Top Guru Holdings Index ETF and Global X SuperIncome Preferred ETF (three of the series constituting the Global X Funds) (the “Funds”), including the schedules of investments, as of June 30, 2013, and the related statements of operations, statements of changes in net assets, and financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2013, by correspondence with the custodian and broker. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of Global X Permanent ETF, Global X Top Guru Holdings Index ETF and Global X SuperIncome Preferred ETF at June 30, 2013, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and their financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited) |
|
All Exchange Traded Funds (“ETF”) have operating expenses. As a shareholder of an ETF, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for ETF management, administrative services, commissions, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns. In addition, a shareholder is responsible for brokerage fees as a result of their investment in the Fund.
Operating expenses such as these are deducted from an ETF’s gross income and directly reduce its final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the ETF’s average net assets; this percentage is known as the ETF’s expense ratio.
The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.
The table on the next page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:
Actual Fund Return: This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that your Fund incurred over the period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund’s gross investment return.
You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under “Expenses Paid During Period.”
Hypothetical 5% Return: This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the annualized expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expenses Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other funds.
NOTE: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return — the account values shown may not apply to your specific investment.

Supplemental Information (Unaudited) |
|
|
Net asset value, or “NAV”, is the price per Share at which the Funds issue and redeem Shares. It is calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The “Market Price” of the Funds generally is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the stock exchange on which the Shares of the Funds are listed for trading, as of the time that the Funds’ NAV is calculated. The Funds’ Market Price may be at, above or below their NAV. The NAV of the Funds will fluctuate with changes in the market value of their Funds’ holdings. The Market Price of the Funds will fluctuate in accordance with changes in its NAV, as well as market supply and demand.
Premiums or discounts are the differences (expressed as a percentage) between the NAV and Market Price of the Funds on a given day, generally at the time NAV is calculated. A premium is the amount that the Funds are trading above the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV. A discount is the amount that the Funds are trading below the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV.
Further information regarding premiums and discounts is available on the Funds’ website at GlobalXFunds.com

While an “immediate family member” (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of Mr. del Ama would be considered an Interested Person, Mr. Chichester is not considered an immediate family member for this purpose. Although this fact was taken into consideration in determining whether Mr. Chichester should be considered to be an Independent Trustee for purposes of the Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, it was determined that this relationship was not one that should disqualify Mr. Chichester from serving as an Independent Trustee of the Trust. |
| 2 | Each Trustee serves until his or her successor is duly elected or appointed and qualified. |
| 3 | As of June 30, 2013, the Trust had seventy-nine investment portfolios, thirty-five of which were operational. |
| 4 | These officers of the Trust also serve as officers of one or more mutual funds for which SEI Investments Company or an affiliate acts as investment manager, administrator or distributor. |
