Economic backdrop

Back in September 2015, at the start of the Funds’ fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 2016, many investors were anticipating relatively strong U.S. economic growth. Accordingly, the U.S. Federal Reserve was widely expected to begin raising its target short-term interest rate for the first time in nine years. The Fed eventually did so at its December 2015 meeting, increasing the federal funds rate by 0.25 percentage points.

It soon became clear, however, that the U.S. economy was growing at a relatively sluggish pace — one factor behind the Fed’s decision to leave rates alone for the remainder of the Funds’ fiscal year. Although U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) expanded by a moderate rate of 2.0% in the third quarter of 2015, it slowed to an annual pace of just 0.9% growth in the fourth quarter, and 0.8% and an estimated 1.1% in the first and second quarters of 2016, respectively (source: U.S. Commerce Department).

Investor concern extended beyond the United States and included worries about Chinese economic growth, new financial challenges in Europe, and, in June, U.K. voters’ decision to leave the European Union. This vote, dubbed Brexit, led to significant short-term market volatility, although markets quickly recovered.

Municipal bond market conditions

Against this backdrop, interest rates unexpectedly fell for much of the fiscal year — beneficial for municipal bond and other fixed income investors. This was particularly true in the first half of calendar year 2016, as concerns rose about the global economy, weak commodity prices, and the Fed’s apparent unwillingness to raise rates further.

Continuing a trend of several years, tax-exempt bonds with longer maturity dates tended to outpace those with shorter maturities. Also, lower-rated, higher yielding issues again generally surpassed their investment grade counterparts,

performing particularly well in this environment.

The following table shows municipal bond returns, by maturity and credit quality, for the 12 months ended Aug. 31, 2016:


Maturity
5 years	4.01	%
10 years	7.34	%
22+ years	10.46	%

Credit quality
AAA	5.59	%
AA	6.20	%
A	8.51	%
BBB	8.83	%

Source: Bloomberg

Other positive factors included the continued favorable balance between supply and demand of municipal debt and the healthy credit environment for many state and local municipal borrowers. Tobacco was the strongest-performing sector in the municipal bond marketplace, as these lower-rated, higher yielding securities benefited from issuers’ generally improved credit quality and strong investor demand for yield. Other bond categories dominated by lower-rated issuers also fared well, including transportation and healthcare. Higher-quality categories, including state general obligation bonds, produced positive returns that nevertheless lagged the overall municipal bond market.

Economic backdrop in the states

Arizona’s diverse state economy is still recovering from the global financial crisis. The rise in population prior to the crisis overly exposed its real estate market and construction industry. July 2016 nonfarm employment of 2.7 million was up 2.5% from a year earlier. Although Arizona’s economy has generally improved, as of July 2016 the unemployment rate remained elevated at 6.0%, well above the national average rate of 4.9%. Arizona’s per capita personal income levels are at only 82% of the national level. Fiscal 2016

Portfolio management review

Delaware Investments^® state tax-free funds

General Fund revenues totaled $9.77 billion, a 3.2% increase over 2015 and 0.3% above budget estimates. The state ended fiscal 2016 with a preliminary ending fund balance of $222 million, in line with the beginning-of-year forecast. Arizona passed a $9.37 billion fiscal 2017 General Fund budget, a 1.2% increase over fiscal 2016. The two largest expenditure items were for education (42%) and Medicaid (19%). Fiscal 2017 General Fund revenues are expected to rise 2.3% to $9.37 billion. General Fund revenues are expected to be composed of sales taxes (45%), individual income taxes (40%), miscellaneous revenues and fees (10%), and corporate income taxes (5%).

California enjoys a large, diverse, and wealthy economy that mirrors that of the nation. In 2015, the state’s real GDP was $2.46 trillion, making California the sixth largest economy in the world. The July 2016 nonfarm employment of 16.49 million was up 2.3% from a year earlier. The unemployment rate in July 2016 was 5.5%, slightly above the national rate of 4.9%. California’s per capita personal income remained strong at 111% of the national average. Fiscal 2016 General Fund revenues rose 5.1% year over year to $117 billion, 1.7% above original budget forecasts. Personal income taxes rose 6.1% in fiscal 2016 to $79.96 billion, 2.9% above projections. Sales-and-use tax receipts rose 5.7% year-over-year to $25.03 billion in 2016. Corporate income taxes totaled $10.31 billion in fiscal 2016, a 5.1% increase year over year and 0.3% below budget estimates. California ended fiscal 2016 with a $4.87 billion General Fund balance. The state legislature passed a $122.47 billion General Fund budget for fiscal 2017, a 6% increase over 2016. General Fund revenues are expected to total $123.6 billion, a 4.0% increase over 2016. The budget calls for personal income, sales, and corporate taxes to increase 4.3%, 2.8%, and

6.6%, respectively. However, after accounting for the $3.3 billion transfer to the Budget Stabilization Fund, total revenues are estimated at $120.3 billion. This would result in a decline in the General Fund balance from $4.9 billion in 2016 to $2.7 billion in 2017. However, the Budget Stabilization Fund is expected to increase from $3.4 billion to $6.7 billion, which equates to 5.5% of the 2017 General Fund budget.

Colorado’s economy is diverse, with below-average employment in manufacturing and a variety of service sector strengths. July 2016 nonfarm employment of 2.62 million was up 2.9% from a year earlier. Colorado’s unemployment rate in July 2016 was 3.8%, much lower than the national rate of 4.9%. Colorado is a relatively wealthy state, with per-capita personal income levels at 106% of the U.S. average. Estimated General Fund revenues for fiscal year 2016 were $9.96 billion, a 1.6% increase over fiscal 2015. Individual income tax revenues rose 2.2% in fiscal 2016 to $6.49 billion. Sales-and-use tax collections rose 1.5% to $2.92 billion in 2016. Corporate income tax revenues totaled $647.9 million in fiscal 2016, a 6.5% year-over-year decline. Colorado’s legislature passed a $10.47 billion General Fund budget for fiscal year 2017, a 2.9% increase year over year. Two of the larger expenditure increases in the budget were for education (at $291.7 million) and healthcare policy (at $197.2 million). General Fund revenues are projected to increase 6.0% year over year to $10.58 billion. Source: bls.gov, Colorado Office of State Planning and Budgeting, Moody’s, colorado.gov.

Idaho’s economy has expanded and diversified in recent years, benefiting from population growth. However, the state still has an above-average dependence on the natural resource sector. The July 2016 nonfarm employment of 696,400 was up 3.4% from a year earlier. The unemployment rate

in July 2016 was 3.8%, well below the national rate of 4.9%. Idaho’s General Fund fiscal 2016 revenues were $3.18 billion. Total revenues came in 0.1% above budget and 4.2% above the prior year. For fiscal year 2017, the Idaho legislature passed a $3.27 billion General Fund budget, a 7.0% increase over fiscal 2016. The three largest portions of the budget are public school support (48%), Medicaid (16%), and higher education (9%). Total General Fund revenues are forecasted to increase 4.7% to $3.31 billion in fiscal 2017. Individual income taxes, sales taxes, and corporate income taxes are projected to rise 5.4%, 5.2%, and 2.6%, respectively. Source: bls.gov, Idaho Division of Management, State Controller’s website.

New York has a mature, broad-based, and wealthy economy that attracts a highly educated and global workforce. July 2016 nonfarm employment of 9.4 million was up 1.2% from a year earlier. The unemployment rate in July 2016 was 4.7%, slightly below the national rate of 4.9%. Total receipts for the General Fund finished fiscal 2016 at $66.34 billion, roughly 0.9% below the revised budget projections. Personal income tax receipts were $42.12 billion in fiscal 2016, 0.6% below budget forecasts. Sales tax revenues totaled $12.31 billion in 2016, about 0.5% above consensus projections. Corporate income taxes were the largest drag on General Fund revenues, coming in at $5.65 billion in fiscal 2016 versus budget projections of $6.20 billion. General Fund expenditures were $66.34 billion in fiscal 2016, 1.3% below the revised budget forecast. The key contributor to the large spending drop was $840 million in lower local assistance payments, mainly related to healthcare expenses. New York’s legislature passed a $69.07 billion General Fund budget for 2017, a 4.1% increase over the prior year’s budget. Fiscal 2017 revenue projections show an increase of 4.0% to total $68.96 billion. Personal income taxes are projected to rise 6.3% and sales taxes are projected to increase 2.4%

year over year. The fiscal 2017 budget projects a small decrease in the General Fund balance from $2.63 billion in 2016 to $2.52 billion in 2017. Budget highlights include a reduction of the marginal tax rates on middle incomes from between 5.9% and 6.65% to between 5.5% and 6.0% once fully phased in during fiscal 2018. Also, the enacted budget phased in increases in the state’s minimum wage to as high as $15 by the end of calendar year 2018 and calendar year 2019, with the timing dependent on the number of employed workers at the business. State operating revenues through the first quarter of fiscal 2017 were $466 million lower than budget, primarily driven by weaker-than-expected personal income tax receipts.

Pennsylvania has a diverse, broad, and relatively stable economy, with per-capita personal income levels slightly above the national average (103%), supported by its large health and higher education sectors. July 2016 nonfarm employment of 5.89 million was up 1.0% from a year earlier. The monthly unemployment rate in July 2016 was 5.6%, higher than the national rate of 4.9%. Pennsylvania’s General Fund tax collections totaled $30.9 billion in fiscal 2016, 0.1% above the estimates and 1.0% above fiscal 2015. Sales tax receipts were 0.3% below budget, personal income collections were 1.6% below budget, and corporate tax revenues were 2.0% above budget projections. The state enacted a $31.5 billion General Fund budget for fiscal year 2017, a 5.4% increase over the prior year’s budget. The two largest expenditures in the budget are allocated toward health and human services (38%) and education (36%).

Portfolio management review

Delaware Investments^® state tax-free funds

Sticking to our strategy

For all six Funds profiled in this report, our management approach remained consistent, as it does in every market environment. With our bottom-up investment strategy, we evaluate potential bond holdings one by one. Working with our municipal credit analysts, we conduct thorough research to determine which bonds we believe offer the most favorable apparent trade-off between their credit risk and income generation.

In general, we emphasize bonds with lower-investment-grade or below-investment-grade credit ratings, where we believe our credit research capabilities can provide us potentially more meaningful insights. During the fiscal period, we maintained substantial allocations to bonds with credit ratings of A and BBB — the two lowest rating tiers among investment grade bonds — in all six Funds.

The Funds also had exposure to high yield bonds — rated below BBB. Up to 20% of the Funds’ net assets can be invested in high yield municipal debt. Opportunities to invest in these lower-rated issues varied widely by state, but in cases when we were able to make use of this basket of investments, we focused on securities that provided a combination of what we viewed as having attractive income and credit characteristics.

As we normally do, we maintained a neutral duration, or sensitivity to interest rate changes, within the Funds, roughly on par with their benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index. We preferred to seek to add value through credit selection rather than interest rate management.

During the fiscal period, we took advantage of opportunities to add the types of higher yielding, lower-rated bonds we often favor. In states with smaller amounts of tax-exempt bond issuance, it can be challenging to find enough lower-rated bonds to add to the portfolios. To keep the Funds

fully invested, we typically purchase higher-quality, in-state bonds as placeholders while we wait for what we view as attractive lower-rated, longer-dated issues to emerge. We used this strategy while researching for potentially better-yielding long-term investment opportunities — a process that was ongoing as the fiscal year concluded. During the fiscal year, we used this strategy most often in (but not limited to) Idaho, in which we found it most difficult to find our preferred security types over the past 12 months.

Our purchases were largely financed through bond calls and maturities, as well as the proceeds of new share purchases by investors. We were reluctant to sell many of the Funds’ bond holdings, however, as many of these older issues offered higher income and were better long-term investments, in our view.

Within the Funds

Given the market trends of slow growth, economic uncertainty, and low yields, we believe all six Funds were well positioned for the fiscal year, with healthy exposure to longer-dated, lower-rated credits. Many of the Funds’ strongest-performing bonds had one or both of these characteristics.

Here, for each Fund, we provide information about the strongest-performing securities in absolute terms, as well as holdings that underperformed the overall municipal bond market.

● Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund saw particularly strong results from its holdings in prepaid natural gas revenue bonds rated A- by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services and Baa1 by Moody’s and maturing in 2037. These noncallable securities, which benefited from a relatively long duration in a falling interest rate environment, generated a total return of 23% for the fiscal year. The Fund also benefited from Arizona Edkey charter school bonds: These securities were rated below investment grade, had a 2048 maturity date, and returned about more than 15% for the

period. During a generally favorable period for municipal debt, none of the Fund’s holdings lost ground, although several produced only incremental gains. These minimally positive performers included a couple of advance-refunded bonds with performance limited by the securities’ very high credit quality and short durations: Payson Unified School District bonds and healthcare bonds issued for John C. Lincoln Medical Center.

● The strongest individual performer in Delaware Tax-Free California Fund was a position in Golden State tobacco securitization bonds. These issues benefited from their long duration and below-investment-grade credit rating, as well as from the overall strength enjoyed by tobacco securitization bonds during the fiscal period. The Fund’s allocation to zero-coupon Anaheim school district bonds also added value. These credits were attractively priced at the start of the fiscal year and closed their discount over time. In contrast, the Fund’s weakest-performing securities were U.S. Virgin Islands dedicated tax bonds, which lost 3%. (Bonds issued by U.S. territories are fully exempt from income taxes for residents of all 50 states.) Although these bonds remained solid credits, in our view, they lost value toward period end, as concerns about another U.S. territory, Puerto Rico, increased. Meanwhile, advance-refunded bonds for Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino underperformed the municipal bond market, returning slightly less than 1%, as these securities’ short durations and high underlying quality limited their upside.

● Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund’s holdings in prepaid natural gas bonds were strong performers, returning 20% for the Fund. Because these securities were noncallable, they benefited from their relatively long maturity date even more than they otherwise would have. Nonrated tax increment financing bonds for the City of Fountain also fared well, as their 2044 maturity date attracted investors at a time of low and declining

interest rates. In contrast, the Fund’s largest underperformers included those with very high credit quality and short maturity dates: Colorado single-family housing bonds and Colorado Health Facilities Authority revenue bonds for Adventist Health System.

● Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund benefited from its position in bonds issued for Xavier Charter School in Twin Falls: These holdings, rated BBB-and maturing in 2050, returned 17% for the Fund. The Fund also benefited from Canyon County school district bonds with a 2033 maturity date and an Aa1 credit rating from Moody’s. The Fund’s largest underperformers included the U.S. Virgin Islands dedicated tax bonds cited earlier, as well as advance-refunded bonds for Boise State University, securities that returned less than 1% for the fiscal year.

● Leading the list of outperforming securities in Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund were bonds issued for St. Joseph’s Hospital Health Center. In addition to their sub-investment-grade credit rating and 2042 maturity date, the securities benefited from the hospital’s new agreement to affiliate itself with a higher-rated provider, boosting its credit quality. Nonrated lease bonds for the World Trade Center 3 project in lower Manhattan also contributed to performance. In contrast, the Fund’s performance was hurt by its exposure to U.S. Virgin Islands dedicated tax bonds and to advance-refunded bonds issued to fund student housing at the University of Rochester, which saw subdued gains.

● In Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund, the leading performers were both senior housing bonds: Moon Industrial Development Authority bonds issued for Baptist Homes Society and Cumberland County Municipal Authority bonds issued for Diakon Lutheran Social Ministries. These holdings returned more than 20% and 15%, respectively. The leading underperformers were both securities that produced modest gains, including advance-refunded Pennsylvania

¹ Returns reflect the reinvestment of all distributions and are presented both with and without the applicable sales charges described below. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes the shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares.

Expense limitations were in effect for certain classes during some or all of the periods shown in the “Fund and benchmark performance” table. Expenses for each class are listed on the “Fund expense ratios” table on page 10. Performance would have been lower had expense limitations not been in effect.

Institutional Class shares are available without sales or asset-based distribution charges only to certain eligible accounts.

Class A shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.50%, and have an annual distribution and service fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. Performance for Class A shares,

excluding sales charges, assumes that no front-end sales charge applied.

Class C shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% if redeemed during the first 12 months. They are also subject to an annual distribution and service fee of 1.00% of average daily net assets. Performance for Class C shares, excluding sales charges, assumes either that contingent deferred sales charges did not apply or that the investment was not redeemed.

Fixed income securities and bond funds can lose value, and investors can lose principal, as interest rates rise. They also may be affected by economic conditions that hinder an issuer’s ability to make interest and principal payments on its debt.

The Fund may also be subject to prepayment risk, the risk that the principal of a fixed income security that is held by the Fund may be prepaid prior to maturity, potentially forcing the Fund to reinvest that money at a lower interest rate.

Funds that invest primarily in one state may be more susceptible to the economic, regulatory, and other factors of that state than funds that invest more broadly.

Substantially all dividend income derived from tax-free funds is exempt from federal income tax. Some income may be subject to state or local taxes and/or the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) that applies to certain investors. Capital gains, if any, are taxable.

Bond ratings are determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

Duration number will change as market conditions change. Therefore, duration should not be solely relied upon to indicate a municipal bond fund’s potential volatility.

Per Standard & Poor’s credit rating agency, bonds rated AA and A are more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and

economic conditions than those in the higher-rated AAA category, but the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is still strong. Bonds rated BBB exhibit adequate protection parameters, although adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial commitments. Bonds rated BB, B, and CCC are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics, with BB indicating the least degree of speculation of the three.

Per Moody’s credit rating agency, bonds rated Aaa are rated as having the highest quality and are generally considered to have the lowest degree of investment risk. Bonds rated Aa2 are considered to be of high quality, but with a slightly higher degree of risk than bonds rated Aaa. Bonds rated A2 are considered to have many favorable investment qualities, though they are somewhat more susceptible to adverse economic conditions. Bonds rated Baa3 are believed to be of medium-grade quality and generally riskier over the long term.

Delaware Management Company has agreed to reimburse certain expenses and/or waive certain fees in order to prevent total annual fund operating expenses (excluding any 12b-1 fees, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, interest, inverse floater program expenses, short sale and dividend interest expenses, brokerage fees, certain insurance costs, and nonroutine expenses or costs, including, but not limited to, those relating to reorganizations, litigation, conducting shareholder meetings, and liquidations (collectively, nonroutine expenses)) from exceeding 0.59% of the Fund’s average daily net assets during the period from Sept. 1, 2015 through Aug. 31, 2016.* Please see the most recent prospectus and any applicable supplement(s) for additional information on these fee waivers and/or reimbursements.

Class A shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.50%, and have an annual distribution and service fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. The Board has adopted a formula

for calculating 12b-1 plan fees for the Fund’s Class A shares. The Fund’s Class A shares are currently subject to a blended 12b-1 fee equal to the sum of: (i) 0.10% of average daily net assets representing shares acquired prior to June 1, 1992, and (ii) 0.25% of average daily net assets representing shares acquired on or after June 1, 1992. All Class A shares currently bear 12b-1 fees at the same rate, the blended rate, currently 0.24% of average daily net assets, based on the formula described above. This method of calculating Class A 12b-1 fees may be discontinued at the sole discretion of the Board. Performance for Class A shares, excluding sales charges, assumes that no front-end sales charge applied.

excluding sales charges, assumes either that contingent deferred sales charges did not apply or that the investment was not redeemed.

Per Standard & Poor’s credit rating agency, bonds rated AA and A are more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than those in the higher-rated AAA category, but the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is still strong. Bonds rated BBB exhibit adequate protection parameters, although adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial commitments. Bonds rated BB, B, and CCC are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics, with BB indicating the least degree of speculation of the three.

Disclosure of Fund expenses

For the 6 months period from March 1, 2016 to August 31, 2016 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvested dividends, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. These following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-months period from March 1, 2016 to Aug. 31, 2016.

Actual expenses

The first section of the tables shown, “Actual Fund return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section of the table, 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

The second section of the tables shown, “Hypothetical 5% return,” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ 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 each 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 tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second section of each 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. The Funds’ expenses shown in the tables reflect fee waivers in effect. The expenses shown in each table assume reinvestment of all dividends and distributions.

Financial highlights

Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund Class A

Selected data for each share of the Fund outstanding throughout each period were as follows:

Net asset value, beginning of period

Income (loss) from investment operations:

Net investment income¹

Net realized and unrealized gain (loss)

Total from investment operations

Less dividends and distributions from:

Net investment income

Net realized gain

Total dividends and distributions

Net asset value, end of period

Total return²

Ratios and supplemental data:

Net assets, end of period (000 omitted)

Ratio of expenses to average net assets

Ratio of expenses to average net assets prior to fees waived

Ratio of net investment income to average net assets

Ratio of net investment income to average net assets prior to fees waived

Portfolio turnover

¹	The average shares outstanding have been applied for per share information.

Total investment return is based on the change in net asset value of a share during the period and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions at net asset value and does not reflect the impact of a sales charge. Total investment return during all of the periods shown reflects a waiver by the manager. Performance would have been lower had the waiver not been in effect.

Notes to financial statements
Delaware Investments^® state tax-free funds		August 31, 2016

Voyageur Insured Funds is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and offers one series: Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund. Voyageur Mutual Funds is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and offers five series: Delaware Minnesota High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund, Delaware National High-Yield Municipal Bond Fund, Delaware Tax-Free California Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, and Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund. Voyageur Mutual Funds II is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and offers one series: Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund. Delaware Group^® State Tax-Free Income Trust is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and offers one series: Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund. Voyageur Insured Funds, Voyageur Mutual Funds, Voyageur Mutual Funds II, and Delaware Group State Tax-Free Income Trust are each individually referred to as a Trust and collectively as the Trusts. These financial statements and the related notes pertain to Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund, Delaware Tax-Free California Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund, and Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund (each referred to as a Fund, or collectively, as the Funds). The above Trusts are open-end investment companies. The Funds are considered diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and offer Class A, Class C, and Institutional Class shares. Class A shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.50%. Class A share purchases of $1,000,000 or more will incur a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1.00% if redeemed during the first year and 0.50% during the second year, provided that Delaware Distributors, L.P. (DDLP) paid a financial advisor a commission on the purchase of those shares. Effective Sept. 25, 2014, all remaining shares of Class B were converted to Class A shares. Class C shares are sold with a CDSC of 1.00%, if redeemed during the first 12 months. Institutional Class shares are not subject to a sales charge and are offered for sale exclusively to certain eligible investors.

The investment objective of each Fund is to seek as high a level of current income exempt from federal income tax and from personal income taxes in the respective applicable state, as is consistent with preservation of capital.

1. Significant Accounting Policies

The following accounting policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) and are consistently followed by the Funds.

Security Valuation – Debt securities are valued based upon valuations provided by an independent pricing service or broker and reviewed by management. To the extent current market prices are not available, the pricing service may take into account developments related to the specific security, as well as transactions in comparable securities. Valuations for fixed income securities utilize matrix systems, which reflect such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings, and are supplemented by dealer and exchange quotations. Open-end investment companies are valued at their published net asset value (NAV) per share, as reported by the underlying investment company. Generally, other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of each Trust’s Board of Trustees (each, a Board or, collectively, the Boards). In determining whether market quotations are readily available or fair valuation will be used, various factors will be taken into consideration, such as market closures or suspension of trading in a security.

Federal Income Taxes – No provision for federal income taxes has been made as each Fund intends to continue to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company under

148

Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and make the requisite distributions to shareholders. Each Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing each Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Management has analyzed each Fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (Aug. 31, 2013–Aug. 31, 2016), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in each Fund’s financial statements.

Class Accounting – Investment income and common expenses are allocated to the various classes of each Fund on the basis of “settled shares” of each class in relation to the net assets of each Fund. Realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments are allocated to the various classes of each Fund on the basis of daily net assets of each class. Distribution expenses relating to a specific class are charged directly to that class.

Use of Estimates – Each Fund is an investment company, whose financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Therefore, each Fund follows the accounting and reporting guidelines for investment companies. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the fair value of investments, 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material.

Other – Expenses directly attributable to each Fund are charged directly to the Fund. Other expenses common to various funds within the Delaware Investments^® Family of Funds are generally allocated among such funds on the basis of average net assets. Management fees and some other expenses are paid monthly. Security transactions are recorded on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date) for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in calculating realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on debt securities are accreted or amortized to interest income, respectively, over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Each Fund declares dividends daily from net investment income and pays the dividends monthly and declares and pays distributions from net realized gain on investments, if any, annually. Each Fund may distribute more frequently, if necessary for tax purposes. Dividends and distributions, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Each Fund may receive earnings credits from its custodian when positive cash balances are maintained, which may be used to offset custody fees. There were no such earnings credits for the year ended Aug. 31, 2016.

Each Fund receives earnings credits from its transfer agent when positive cash balances are maintained, which may be used to offset transfer agent fees. If the amount earned is greater than one dollar, the expense paid under this arrangement is included on the “Statements of operations” under “Dividend disbursing and transfer agent fees and expenses” with the corresponding expense offset shown under “Less expense paid indirectly.” For the year ended Aug. 31, 2016, each Fund earned the following amounts under this agreement:

2. Investment Management, Administration Agreements, and Other Transactions with Affiliates

In accordance with the terms of its respective investment management agreement, each Fund pays Delaware Management Company (DMC), a series of Delaware Management Business Trust and the investment manager, an annual fee which is calculated based on each Fund’s average daily net assets as follows:


	Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund	Delaware Tax-Free California Fund		Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund	Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund		Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund	Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund
On the first $500 million	0.500%		0.550%	0.550%		0.550%	0.550%	0.550%

In excess of $2.5 billion	0.425%		0.425%	0.425%		0.425%	0.425%	0.425%

DMC has contractually agreed to waive that portion, if any, of its management fee and/or pay/reimburse each Fund to the extent necessary to ensure that total annual operating expenses (excluding any 12b-1 fees, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, interest, inverse floater program expenses, short sale and dividend interest expenses, brokerage fees, certain insurance costs, and nonroutine expenses or costs, including, but not limited to, those relating to reorganizations, litigation, conducting shareholder meetings, and liquidations (collectively, nonroutine expenses)), do not exceed specified percentages of each Fund’s average daily net assets from Sept. 1, 2015 through Aug. 31, 2016* as shown below. For purposes of these waivers and reimbursements, nonroutine expenses may also include such additional costs and expenses as may be agreed upon from time to time by the Boards and DMC. These expense waivers and reimbursements apply only to expenses paid directly by each Fund and may only be terminated by agreement of DMC and each Fund.

$4,035	$4,447	$9,474	$5,116	$4,259	$23,386

DIFSC is also the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent of each Fund. For these services, DIFSC’s fees are calculated based on the aggregate daily net assets of the retail funds within the Delaware Investments Family of Funds at the following annual rate: 0.025% of the first $20 billion; 0.020% of the next $5 billion; 0.015% of the next $5 billion; and 0.013% of average daily net assets in excess of $30 billion. The fees payable to DIFSC under the service agreement described above are allocated among all retail funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds on a relative NAV basis.

Pursuant to a sub-transfer agency agreement between DIFSC and BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. (BNYMIS), BNYMIS provides certain sub-transfer agency services to each Fund. Sub-transfer agency fees are paid by each Fund and are also included on the “Statements of operations” under “Dividend disbursing and transfer agent fees and expenses.”

Pursuant to a distribution agreement and distribution plan, each Fund pays DDLP, the distributor and an affiliate of DMC, an annual distribution and service fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Class A shares (except for Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund). The Board for Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund has adopted a formula for calculating 12b-1 fees for the Fund’s Class A shares that went into effect on June 1, 1992. The Fund’s Class A shares are currently subject to a blended 12b-1 fee equal to the sum of: (1) 0.10% of average daily net assets representing shares acquired prior to June 1, 1992, and (2) 0.25% of average daily net assets representing shares acquired on or after June 1, 1992. All of the Fund’s Class A shareholders bear 12b-1 fees at the same rate, the blended rate, currently 0.24% of average daily net assets, based on the formula described above. This method of calculating Class A 12b-1 fees may be discontinued at the sole discretion of the Board. Each Fund pays 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Class C shares. Institutional Class shares pay no distribution and service fees.

As provided in the investment management agreement, each Fund bears a portion of the cost of certain resources shared with DMC, including the cost of internal personnel of DMC and/or its affiliates that

Cross trades for the year ended Aug. 31, 2016, were executed by the Funds pursuant to procedures adopted by the Boards designed to ensure compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. Cross trading is the buying or selling of portfolio securities between funds of investment companies, or between a fund of an investment company and another entity, that are or could be considered affiliates by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common directors/trustees and/or common officers. At their regularly scheduled meetings, the Boards review such transactions for compliance with the procedures adopted by the Boards.

U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that each Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. A three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements has been established based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the

153


Notes to financial statements

3. Investments (continued)

asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available under the circumstances. Each Fund’s investment in its entirety is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three-level hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.


Level 1 –		Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. (Examples: equity securities, open-end investment companies, futures contracts, exchange-traded options contracts)

Level 2 –		Other observable inputs, including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, and default rates), or other market-corroborated inputs. (Examples: debt securities, government securities, swap contracts, foreign currency exchange contracts, foreign securities utilizing international fair value pricing, broker-quoted securities, fair valued securities)

Level 3 –		Significant unobservable inputs, including each Fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments. (Examples: broker-quoted securities, fair valued securities)

Level 3 investments are valued using significant unobservable inputs. Each Fund may also use an income-based valuation approach in which the anticipated future cash flows of the investment are discounted to calculate fair value. Discounts may also be applied due to the nature or duration of any restrictions on the disposition of the investments. Valuations may also be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity, and industry. The derived value of a Level 3 investment may not represent the value which is received upon disposition and this could impact the results of operations.

The following tables summarize the valuation of each Fund’s investments by fair value hierarchy levels as of Aug. 31, 2016:


		Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund
Securities		Level 2
Municipal Bonds		$84,225,576

Securities		Level 2
Municipal Bonds		$500,428,194
Short-Term Investments		1,550,000
Total Value of Securities		$501,978,194

Security type is valued across multiple levels. Level 1 investments represent open-end investment company investments while Level 2 investments represent matrix-priced investments. The amounts attributed to Level 1 investments and Level 2 investments represent the following percentages of the total market value of this security type for the Funds:


Short-Term Investments		Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund

Level 1		7.75%
Level 2		92.25%
Total		100.00%

During the year ended Aug. 31, 2016, there were no transfers between Level 1 investments, Level 2 investments, or Level 3 investments that had a significant impact to each Fund. Each Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels at the beginning of the reporting period.

A reconciliation of Level 3 investments is presented when each Fund has a significant amount of Level 3 investments at the beginning, interim, or end of the period in relation to net assets. At Aug. 31, 2016, there were no Level 3 investments.

4. Dividend and Distribution Information

Income and long-term capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Additionally, distributions from net short-term gains on sales of investment securities are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. The tax character of dividends and distributions paid during the years ended Aug. 31, 2016 and 2015 was as follows:

The differences between book basis and tax basis components of net assets are primarily attributable to tax treatment of market discount and premium on certain debt instruments.

156

For financial reporting purposes, capital accounts are adjusted to reflect the tax character of permanent book/tax differences. Reclassifications are primarily due to tax treatment of expiring capital loss carryforwards and tax treatment of market discount and premium on debt instruments. Results of operations and net assets were not affected by these reclassifications. For the year ended Aug. 31, 2016, the Funds recorded the following reclassifications:


	Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund				Delaware Tax-Free California Fund				Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund				Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund				Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund				Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund
Undistributed (distributions in excess of) net investment income		$	(10,706	)		$	(5,383	)		$	699			$	9,995			$	(13,165	)		$	—

Paid in Capital			—				—				(44,178	)			—				—				—

For federal income tax purposes, capital loss carryforwards may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. In 2016, $44,178 capital loss carryforwards expired for Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund and the Funds utilized capital loss carryforwards as follows:


Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund		Delaware Tax-Free California Fund		Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund		Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund		Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund		Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund
	$420,673		$290,045		$528,372		$168,625		$98,274		$865,820

Capital loss carryforwards remaining at Aug. 31, 2016 will expire as follows:


Year of Expiration	Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund		Delaware Tax-Free California Fund		Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund		Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund		Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund		Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund
2019		$—		$369,988		$—		$—		$—		$—

On Dec. 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (Act) was enacted, which changed various technical rules governing the tax treatment of regulated investment companies. The changes were generally effective for taxable years beginning after the date of enactment. Under the Act, the Funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after the date of enactment for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years, which carry an expiration date. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital loss carryforwards will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as permitted under previous regulation.

7. Line of Credit

Each Fund, along with certain other funds in the Delaware Investments^® Family of Funds (Participants), was a participant in a $275,000,000 revolving line of credit intended to be used for temporary or emergency purposes as an additional source of liquidity to fund redemptions of investor shares. Under the agreement, the Participants were charged an annual commitment fee of 0.08%, which was allocated across the Participants on the basis of each Participant’s allocation of the entire facility. The Participants were permitted to borrow up to a maximum of one third of their net assets under the agreement. Each Participant was individually, and not jointly, liable for its particular advances, if any, under the line of credit. The line of credit available under the agreement expired on Nov. 9, 2015.

On Nov. 9, 2015, each Fund, along with the other Participants, entered into an amendment to the agreement for a $155,000,000 revolving line of credit. The line of credit is to be used as described above

160

and operates in substantially the same manner as the original agreement, with the exception of the annual commitment fee. Under the amendment to the agreement, the Participants are charged an annual commitment fee of 0.10%, which is allocated across the Participants on the basis of each Participant’s allocation of the entire facility. The line of credit available under the agreement expires on Nov. 7, 2016.

The Funds had no amounts outstanding as of Aug. 31, 2016 or at any time during the year then ended.

8. Geographic, Credit, and Market Risks

The Funds concentrate their investments in securities issued by each corresponding state’s municipalities. The Funds invest primarily in a specific state and may be subject to geographic concentration risk. In addition, the Funds have the flexibility to invest in issuers in U.S. territories and possessions such as the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam whose bonds are also free of federal and individual state income taxes. The value of the Funds’ investments may be adversely affected by new legislation within the states or U.S. territories, regional or local economic conditions, and differing levels of supply and demand for municipal bonds. Many municipalities insure repayment for their obligations. Although bond insurance reduces the risk of loss due to default by an issuer, such bonds remain subject to the risk that value may fluctuate for other reasons and there is no certainty that the insurance company will meet its obligations. A real or perceived decline in creditworthiness of a bond insurer can have an adverse impact on the value of insured bonds held in each Fund.

8. Geographic, Credit, and Market Risks (continued)

At Aug. 31, 2016, the percentages of each Fund’s net assets insured by bond insurers are listed below and these securities have been identified on the “Schedules of investments.”

Each Fund invests a portion of its assets in high yield fixed income securities, which are securities rated lower than BBB- by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (S&P), lower than Baa3 by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (Moody’s), or similarly rated by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Investments in these higher yielding securities are generally accompanied by a greater degree of credit risk than higher-rated securities. Additionally, lower-rated securities may be more susceptible to adverse economic and competitive industry conditions than investment grade securities.

162

Each Fund invests in certain obligations that may have liquidity protection designed to ensure that the receipt of payments due on the underlying security is timely. Such protection may be provided through guarantees, insurance policies or letters of credit obtained by the issuer or sponsor through third parties, through various means of structuring the transaction or through a combination of such approaches. Each Fund will not pay any additional fees for such credit support, although the existence of credit support may increase the price of a security.

The Funds may invest in advanced refunded bonds, escrow secured bonds, or defeased bonds. Under current federal tax laws and regulations, state and local government borrowers are permitted to refinance outstanding bonds by issuing new bonds. The issuer refinances the outstanding debt to either reduce interest costs or to remove or alter restrictive covenants imposed by the bonds being refinanced. A refunding transaction where the municipal securities are being refunded within 90 days from the issuance of the refunding issue is known as a “current refunding.” “Advance refunded bonds” are bonds in which the refunded bond issue remains outstanding for more than 90 days following the issuance of the refunding issue. In an advance refunding, the issuer will use the proceeds of a new bond issue to purchase high grade interest bearing debt securities, which are then deposited in an irrevocable escrow account held by an escrow agent to secure all future payments of principal and interest and bond premium of the advance refunded bond. Bonds are “escrowed to maturity” when the proceeds of the refunding issue are deposited in an escrow account for investment sufficient to pay all of the principal and interest on the original interest payment and maturity dates.

Bonds are considered “pre-refunded” when the refunding issue’s proceeds are escrowed only until a permitted call date or dates on the refunded issue with the refunded issue being redeemed at the time, including any required premium. Bonds become “defeased” when the rights and interests of the bondholders and of their lien on the pledged revenues or other security under the terms of the bond contract are substituted with an alternative source of revenues (the escrow securities) sufficient to meet payments of principal and interest to maturity or to the first call dates. Escrowed secured bonds will often receive a rating of AAA from Moody’s, S&P, and/or Fitch Ratings due to the strong credit quality of the escrow securities and the irrevocable nature of the escrow deposit agreement.

Each Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities, which may include securities with contractual restrictions on resale, securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other securities which may not be readily marketable. The relative illiquidity of these securities may impair each Fund from disposing of them in a timely manner and at a fair price when it is necessary or desirable to do so. While maintaining oversight, the Boards have delegated to DMC, the day-to-day functions of determining whether individual securities are liquid for purposes of each Fund’s limitation on investments in illiquid securities. Securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, which are determined to be liquid, are not subject to each Fund’s 15% limit on investments in illiquid securities. Rule 144A and illiquid securities held by the Funds have been identified on the “Schedules of investments.” When monitoring compliance with the Funds’ illiquid limit, certain holdings that are common to multiple clients of the investment manager may be aggregated and considered illiquid in the aggregate solely for monitoring purposes. For purposes of determining illiquidity for financial reporting purposes, only the holdings of these Funds will be considered.

9. Contractual Obligations

Each Fund enters into contracts in the normal course of business that contain a variety of indemnifications. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed each Fund’s existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

10. Subsequent Events

Management has determined that no material events or transactions occurred subsequent to Aug. 31, 2016 that would require recognition or disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund (constituting Voyageur Insured Funds), Delaware Tax-Free California Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund (three of the series constituting Voyageur Mutual Funds), Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund (constituting Voyageur Mutual Funds II) and Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund (constituting Delaware Group^® State Tax-Free Income Trust) (hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) at August 31, 2016, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2016 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Board consideration of Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund, Delaware Tax-Free California Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund, and Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund Investment Management Agreements

At a meeting held on Aug. 17–19, 2016 (the “Annual Meeting”), the Boards of Trustees (the “Board”), including a majority of disinterested or independent Trustees, approved the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement for Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund, Delaware Tax-Free California Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund, and Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund (each, a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”). In making its decision, the Board considered information furnished at regular quarterly Board meetings, including reports detailing Fund performance, investment strategies and expenses, as well as information prepared specifically in connection with the renewal of the investment advisory and sub-advisory contracts. Information furnished specifically in connection with the renewal of the Investment Management Agreement with Delaware Management Company (“DMC”) included materials provided by DMC and its affiliates (“Delaware Investments”) concerning, among other things, the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the Funds; the costs of such services to the Funds; economies of scale; and the investment manager’s financial condition and profitability. In addition, in connection with the Annual Meeting, reports were provided to the Trustees in May 2016 and included reports provided by

166

Broadridge Financial Solutions (“Broadridge”). The Broadridge reports compared each Fund’s investment performance and expenses with those of other comparable mutual funds. The Independent Trustees reviewed and discussed the Broadridge reports with independent legal counsel to the Independent Trustees. In addition to the information noted above, the Board also requested and received information regarding DMC’s policy with respect to advisory fee levels and its breakpoint philosophy; the structure of portfolio manager compensation; comparative client fee information; and any constraints or limitations on the availability of securities for certain investment styles, which had in the past year inhibited, or which were likely in the future to inhibit, the investment manager’s ability to invest fully in accordance with Fund policies.

In considering information relating to the approval of each Fund’s advisory agreement, the Independent Trustees received assistance and advice from and met separately with independent legal counsel to the Independent Trustees. Although the Board gave attention to all information furnished, the following discussion identifies, under separate headings, the primary factors taken into account by the Board during its contract renewal considerations.

Nature, extent, and quality of service. The Board considered the services provided by DMC to each Fund and its shareholders. In reviewing the nature, extent, and quality of services, the Board considered reports furnished to it throughout the year, which covered matters such as the relative performance of each Fund; compliance of portfolio managers with the investment policies, strategies, and restrictions for each Fund; compliance by DMC and Delaware Distributors, L.P. (together, “Management”) personnel with the Code of Ethics adopted throughout the Delaware Investments^® Family of Funds complex; and adherence to fair value pricing procedures as established by the Board. The Board was pleased with the current staffing of the Funds’ investment advisor and the emphasis placed on research in the investment process. The Board recognized DMC’s receipt of several industry distinctions during the past several years. The Board gave favorable consideration to DMC’s efforts to control expenditures while maintaining service levels committed to Fund matters. The Board also noted the benefits provided to Fund shareholders through each shareholder’s ability to exchange an investment in one Delaware Investments fund for the same class of shares in another Delaware Investments fund without a sales charge, to reinvest Fund dividends into additional shares of the Fund or into additional shares of other Delaware Investments funds, and the privilege to combine holdings in other Delaware Investments funds to obtain a reduced sales charge. The Board was satisfied with the nature, extent, and quality of the overall services provided by DMC.

Investment performance. The Board placed significant emphasis on the investment performance of the Funds in view of the importance of investment performance to shareholders. Although the Board gave appropriate consideration to performance reports and discussions with portfolio managers at Investment Committee meetings throughout the year, the Board gave particular weight to the Broadridge reports furnished for the Annual Meeting. The Broadridge reports prepared for each Fund showed the investment performance of its Class A shares in comparison to a group of similar funds as selected by Broadridge (the “Performance Universe”). A fund with the best performance ranked first, and a fund with the poorest performance ranked last. The highest/best performing 25% of funds in the Performance Universe make up the first quartile; the next 25%, the second quartile; the next 25%, the third quartile; and the poorest/worst performing 25% of funds in the Performance Universe make up the fourth quartile. Comparative annualized performance for each Fund was shown for the past 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year

167

Other Fund information (Unaudited)

Delaware Investments^® state tax-free funds

periods, to the extent applicable, ended Jan. 31, 2016. The Board’s objective is that each Fund’s performance for the periods considered be at or above the median of its Performance Universe.

Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund – The Performance Universe for the Fund consisted of the Fund and all retail and institutional “other states” municipal debt funds as selected by Broadridge. The Broadridge report comparison showed that the Fund’s total return for the 1-, 3-, and 5-year periods was in the second quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 10-year period was in the first quartile of its Performance Universe. The Board was satisfied with performance.

Delaware Tax-Free California Fund – The Performance Universe for the Fund consisted of the Fund and all retail and institutional California municipal debt funds as selected by Broadridge. The Broadridge report comparison showed that the Fund’s total return for the 1- and 5-year periods was in the second quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 3- and 10-year periods was in the third quartile and first quartile, respectively, of its Performance Universe. The Board was satisfied with performance.

Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund – The Performance Universe for the Fund consisted of the Fund and all retail and institutional “other states” municipal debt funds as selected by Broadridge. The Broadridge report comparison showed that the Fund’s total return for the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods was in the first quartile of its Performance Universe. The Board was satisfied with performance.

Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund – The Performance Universe for the Fund consisted of the Fund and all retail and institutional “other states” municipal debt funds as selected by Broadridge. The Broadridge report comparison showed that the Fund’s total return for the 1-year period was in the second quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 3- and 10-year periods was in the third quartile of its Performance Universe and the Fund’s total return for the 5-year period was in the fourth quartile of its Performance Universe. The Board observed that the Fund’s performance results were mixed. In evaluating the Fund’s performance, the Board considered the Fund’s short-term performance results, which were strong, and consequently, the Board was satisfied with performance.

Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund – The Performance Universe for the Fund consisted of the Fund and all retail and institutional New York municipal debt funds as selected by Broadridge. The Broadridge report comparison showed that the Fund’s total return for the 1-, 5-, and 10-year periods was in the first quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 3-year period was in the second quartile of its Performance Universe. The Board was satisfied with performance.

Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund – The Performance Universe for the Fund consisted of the Fund and all retail and institutional Pennsylvania municipal debt funds as selected by Broadridge. The Broadridge report comparison showed that the Fund’s total return for the 1-, 3-, and 5-year periods was

168

in the second quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 10-year period was in the first quartile of its Performance Universe. The Board was satisfied with performance.

Comparative expenses. The Board considered expense comparison data for the Delaware Investments^® Family of Funds. Management provided the Board with information on pricing levels and fee structures for each Fund as of its most recently completed fiscal year. The Board also focused on the comparative analysis of effective management fees and total expense ratios of each Fund versus effective management fees and expense ratios of a group of similar funds as selected by Broadridge (the “Expense Group”). In reviewing comparative costs, each Fund’s contractual management fee and the actual management fee incurred by the Fund were compared with the contractual management fees (assuming all funds in the Expense Group were similar in size to the Fund) and actual management fees (as reported by each fund) within the Expense Group, taking into account any applicable breakpoints and fee waivers. Each Fund’s total expenses were also compared with those of its Expense Group. The Broadridge total expenses, for comparative consistency, were shown by Broadridge for Class A shares and comparative total expenses including 12b-1 and non-12b-1 service fees. The Board’s objective is to limit each Fund’s total expense ratio to be competitive with that of the Expense Group.

Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund – The expense comparisons for the Fund showed that its actual management fee was in the quartile with the second lowest expenses of its Expense Group and its total expenses were in the quartile with the second highest expenses of its Expense Group. The Board gave favorable consideration to the Fund’s management fee, but noted that the Fund’s total expenses were not in line with the Board’s objective. In evaluating the total expenses, the Board considered fee waivers in place through Dec. 29, 2016 and various initiatives implemented by Management, such as the negotiation of lower fees for fund accounting services, which had created an opportunity for a further reduction in expenses. The Board was satisfied with Management’s efforts to improve the Fund’s total expense ratio and to bring it in line with the Board’s objective.

Delaware Tax-Free California Fund – The expense comparisons for the Fund showed that its actual management fee was in the quartile with the lowest expenses of its Expense Group and its total expenses were in the quartile with the second highest expenses of its Expense Group. The Board gave favorable consideration to the Fund’s management fee, but noted that the Fund’s total expenses were not in line with the Board’s objective. In evaluating the total expenses, the Board considered fee waivers in place through Dec. 29, 2016 and various initiatives implemented by Management, such as the negotiation of lower fees for fund accounting services, which had created an opportunity for a further reduction in expenses. The Board was satisfied with Management’s efforts to improve the Fund’s total expense ratio and to bring it in line with the Board’s objective.

Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund – The expense comparisons for the Fund showed that its actual management fee was in the quartile with the second lowest expenses of its Expense Group and its total expenses were in the quartile with the second highest expenses of its Expense Group. The Board gave favorable consideration to the Fund’s management fee, but noted that the Fund’s total expenses were not in line with the Board’s objective. In evaluating the total expenses, the Board considered favorably fee waivers in place through Dec. 29, 2016 and various initiatives implemented by Management, such as the outsourcing of certain transfer agency services and a negotiation of lower fees for fund accounting

The Board was satisfied with Management’s efforts to improve the Fund’s total expense ratio and to bring it in line with the Board’s objective.

Management profitability. The Board considered the level of profits realized by DMC in connection with the operation of the Funds. In this respect, the Board reviewed the Investment Management Profitability Analysis that addressed the overall profitability of DMC’s business in providing management and other services to each of the individual funds and the Delaware Investments^® Family of Funds as a whole. Specific attention was given to the methodology followed in allocating costs for the purpose of determining profitability. Management stated that the level of profits of DMC, to a certain extent, reflects recent operational cost savings and efficiencies initiated by DMC. The Board considered DMC’s efforts

170

to improve services provided to fund shareholders and to meet additional regulatory and compliance requirements resulting from recent industry-wide Securities and Exchange Commission initiatives. The Board also considered the extent to which DMC might derive ancillary benefits from fund operations, including the potential for procuring additional business as a result of the prestige and visibility associated with its role as service provider to the Delaware Investments^® Family of Funds and the benefits from allocation of fund brokerage to improve trading efficiencies. The Board found that the management fees were reasonable in light of the services rendered and the level of profitability of DMC.

Economies of scale. The Trustees considered whether economies of scale are realized by DMC as each Fund’s assets increase and the extent to which any economies of scale are reflected in the level of management fees charged. The Trustees reviewed the standardized advisory fee pricing and structure, approved by the Board and shareholders, which includes breakpoints, and which applies to most funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds complex. Breakpoints in the advisory fee occur when the advisory fee rate is reduced on assets in excess of specified levels. Breakpoints result in a lower advisory fee than would otherwise be the case in the absence of breakpoints, when the asset levels specified in the breakpoints are exceeded. The Board noted that the fee under each Fund’s management contract fell within the standardized fee pricing structure. Although, as of May 31, 2016, the Funds have not reached a size at which they can take advantage of any breakpoints in the applicable fee schedule, the Board recognized that each Fund’s fee was structured so that if the Fund grows, economies of scale may be shared.

Item 2. Code of Ethics

The registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, regardless of whether these individuals are employed by the registrant or a third party. A copy of the registrant’s Code of Business Ethics has been posted on the Delaware Investments Internet Web site at www.delawareinvestments.com.

Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert

The registrant’s Board of Trustees/Directors has determined that certain members of the registrant’s Audit Committee are audit committee financial experts, as defined below. For purposes of this item, an “audit committee financial expert” is a person who has the following attributes:

a. An understanding of generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements;

b. The ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals, and reserves;

c. Experience preparing, auditing, analyzing, or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the registrant’s financial statements, or experience actively supervising one or more persons engaged in such activities;

d. An understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and

e. An understanding of audit committee functions.

An “audit committee financial expert” shall have acquired such attributes through:

a. Education and experience as a principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller, public accountant, or auditor or experience in one or more positions that involve the performance of similar functions;

b. Experience actively supervising a principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller, public accountant, auditor, or person performing similar functions;

c. Experience overseeing or assessing the performance of companies or public accountants with respect to the preparation, auditing, or evaluation of financial statements; or

d. Other relevant experience.

The registrant’s Board of Trustees/Directors has also determined that each member of the registrant’s Audit Committee is independent. In order to be “independent” for purposes of this item, the Audit Committee member may not: (i) other than in his or her capacity as a member of the Board of Trustees/Directors or any committee thereof, accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the issuer; or (ii) be an “interested person” of the registrant as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

The names of the audit committee financial experts on the registrant’s Audit Committee are set forth below:

Ann D. Borowiec
Joseph W. Chow
Lucinda S. Landreth
Frances A. Sevilla-Sacasa

Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services

(a) Audit fees.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”), the Independent Accountant to the series portfolio of Delaware Group State Tax Free Income Trust (“Fund”), has advised the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Funds (“Audit Committee”) that, as of the date of the filing of this Annual Report on Form N-CSR, it is in discussions with the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC Staff”), or the SEC, regarding the interpretation and application of Rule 2-01(c)(1)(ii)(A) of Regulation S-X, or the Loan Rule.

The Loan Rule prohibits accounting firms, such as PwC, from having certain financial relationships with their audit clients and affiliated entities. Specifically, the Loan Rule provides, in relevant part, that an accounting firm generally would not be independent if it receives a loan from a lender that is a “record or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of the audit client’s equity securities.” Under the SEC Staff’s interpretation of the Loan Rule, based on information provided to us by PwC, some of PwC’s relationships with its lenders who also own shares of one or more funds within the Delaware Investments Family of Funds investment company complex implicate the Loan Rule, calling into question PwC’s independence with respect to the Fund. PwC believes that, in light of the facts of these lending relationships, its ability to exercise objective judgment with respect to the audit of the Fund has not been impaired.

The Audit Committee has considered the lending relationships described by PwC and has concluded that (1) the lending relationships did not affect PwC’s application of objective judgment in conducting its audits and issuing reports on the Fund’s financial statements; and (2) a reasonable investor with knowledge of the lending relationships described by PwC would reach the same conclusion. In making this determination, the Audit Committee considered, among other things, PwC’s description of the relevant lending relationships and PwC’s representation that its objectivity was not impaired in conducting its audit of the Fund’s financial statements. In connection with this determination, PwC advised the Audit Committee that it believes PwC is independent and it continues to have discussions with the SEC Staff.

If the SEC were ultimately to determine that PwC was not independent with respect to the Funds for certain time periods, the Fund’s filings with the SEC that contain the Fund’s financial statements for such periods would be non-compliant with the applicable securities laws. If the SEC determines that PwC was not independent, among other things, the Fund could be required to have independent audits conducted on the Fund’s previously audited financial statements by another registered public accounting firm for the affected periods. The time involved to conduct such independent audits may impair the Funds’ ability to issue shares. Any of the foregoing possible outcomes potentially could have a material adverse effect on the Fund.

The aggregate fees billed for services provided to the registrant by its independent auditors for the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements and for services normally provided by the independent auditors in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements were $38,500 for the period ended August 31, 2016.
