Economic backdrop

US economic data remained healthy throughout the Funds’ fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 2018, although concern about the longer-term impact of global trade conflict emerged toward period end.

US gross domestic product (GDP), a measure of the goods and services the nation produces, increased throughout the 12-month time frame. In the third quarter of 2017, for example, US GDP expanded by an annualized 2.8% rate, followed by a 2.3% increase in the final three months of 2017. US GDP grew by 2.2% in the first quarter of 2018 and an estimated 4.2% in the second quarter. That 4.2% annual pace was the largest quarterly gain in nearly four years. Employment trends also remained healthy, with the US jobless rate finishing August 2018 at 3.9%, down half a percentage point from a year earlier. (Sources: US Bureau of Economic Analysis and US Bureau of Labor Statistics.)

Against this backdrop of steady economic expansion, job growth, and manageable inflation, the US Federal Reserve continued to gradually raise interest rates. The Fed increased its target short-term interest rate by 0.25 percentage points on three separate occasions during the Funds’ fiscal year – in December 2017 and in March and June 2018. On Aug. 31, 2018, the federal funds rate ranged from 1.75% to 2.00%, up from 1.00% to 1.25% a year earlier. (Source: Bloomberg.)

Municipal bond market conditions

In this strong economic environment, the US municipal bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index, returned +0.49% for the year ended Aug. 31, 2018. Longer-term municipal bonds outpaced their shorter-term counterparts as the yield curve flattened, meaning yields on short-term bonds rose more than those on long-term issues. Short-term yields rose in line with the Fed’s interest rate increases, while fairly benign inflation kept a lid on long-term municipal yields.

To indicate the outperformance of longer-dated municipal debt relative to shorter-maturity municipal debt, the following table shows municipal bond returns by maturity for the 12 months ended Aug. 31, 2018:

Returns by maturity


5 years	– 0.74	%
10 years	– 0.10	%
22+ years	1.28	%

Source: Bloomberg.

Much of the yield curve’s flattening took place in the fourth quarter of 2017, as investors sought to understand the potential market impact of federal tax reform legislation, which ultimately passed in late December. During this time, the supply of municipal bonds increased sharply, as issuers, anticipating unfavorable tax-policy changes, rushed debt to market. One of these expected changes – the ability to issue so-called private-activity bonds, a broad category that includes healthcare, private education, and toll road bonds, among others – didn’t make it into the final legislation.

However, another proposed change did come to pass: the elimination of advance refundings. Under the new legislation, issuers wishing to refinance bonds through the issuance of newer debt must do so within 90 days of the bonds’ call dates. Many issuers ultimately opted to bring their debt to market ahead of the law’s passage. This led to tighter bond supply in the second half of the Funds’ fiscal year, which, coupled with solid investor demand, provided a tailwind for the municipal bond market.

Continuing a trend in place for several years, bonds of lower-rated municipal issuers again outperformed bonds of higher-quality issuers – a situation known as credit spread narrowing. As investors anticipated that interest rates would continue to rise slowly, lower-rated, higher yielding municipal bonds remained attractive to investors in a continued low-rate environment. Bonds rated

below investment grade (below BBB) performed especially well amid strong demand coupled with limited supply of the securities.

Economic backdrop in the states

Arizona’s diverse state economy is still recovering from the global financial crisis. The rise in population overly exposed its real estate market and construction industry. July 2018 nonfarm employment of 2.78 million grew 2.7% from a year earlier. Despite improvement over prior years, the state’s unemployment rate as of July 2018 remained elevated at 4.6%, above the national average rate of 3.9%. Arizona’s per capita personal income levels are also well below average at only 82% of the national level. Fiscal 2018 General Fund revenues totaled $10.1 billion, which were 6.4% higher than 2017 and 4.2% above budget estimates. Individual income tax revenue grew 10.0% in 2018, sales tax revenue increased 6.2%, and corporate tax revenue rose 1.3%. The state ended fiscal 2018 with an operating fund balance of $2.8 billion and Budget Stabilization Fund balance of $457 million. Arizona enacted a $10.4 billion fiscal 2019 General Fund budget, a 5.5% increase over 2018. Revenues are expected to grow 3.4 % to total $10.2 billion. The budget includes increased funding for education and healthcare. (Sources: bls.gov, bea.gov, ncsl.org, Arizona Office of Strategic Planning Budgeting, Arizona Joint Legislative Budget Committee.)

California enjoys a large, diverse, and wealthy economy that mirrors that of the US. In 2015, California’s real GDP was $2.6 trillion, making California the sixth largest economy in the world. The July 2018 nonfarm employment of 17.1 million grew 2.0% from a year earlier. The unemployment rate fell to 4.2% in July 2018 but remains slightly above the national rate of 3.9%. California’s per capita personal income remained strong at 10% higher than the national average. Fiscal 2018 General Fund revenues rose by 11.5% year over year to total $136 billion, which was 1.1% above the budget forecasts. Personal income taxes rose 13.1% in fiscal 2018 to total $93.5 billion and were 1.3% above budget. Sales-and-use tax receipts were 1.5% below budget, but corporate income tax revenues were 4.4% above budget. California ended fiscal 2018 with a $8.4 billion General Fund balance and a $9.4 billion Rainy Day Fund. The California legislature enacted a $138.7 billion General Fund budget for fiscal 2019, a 9.2% increase over 2018. General Fund revenues are expected to total $133.3 billion, 2.7% more than 2018. The budget calls for personal income and corporate taxes to rise 3.3% and 9.0%, respectively. It calls for a 5.1% increase in sales tax revenues. The state expects to end fiscal 2018 with a General Fund balance of $3.1 billion and a Rainy Day Fund of $13.8 billion. (Sources: bls.gov, bea.gov, ncsl.org, ebudget.ca.gov.)

Colorado’s economy is diverse, with below-average employment concentration in manufacturing and a variety of service sector strengths. July 2018 nonfarm employment of 2.75 million grew 3.1% from a year earlier. Colorado’s unemployment rate in July 2018 was 2.8%, far below the national rate of 3.9% but up slightly from a year earlier. Colorado is a relatively wealthy state, with per capita personal income levels equal to 106% of the US average. Total estimated General Fund revenues for fiscal year 2018 were $11.6 billion, a 12.6% increase over fiscal 2017. Individual income tax revenues rose

by 11.5% in fiscal 2018. Corporate income taxes increased 44.6% while sales and use taxes rose 9.8%. Colorado’s legislature enacted a $11.4 billion General Fund budget for 2019, a 7.6% increase over the prior year. Income tax collections are expected to increase at a more moderate rate of 4.3% in 2019, while sales-and-use tax revenue is forecast to increase 4.8%. The budget includes increased funding for education, healthcare, and transportation. The budget estimates an ending fund balance in the General Fund reserve of $943.8 million – $130.6 million above the statutory required reserve. (Sources: bls.gov, bea.gov, ncsl.org, Colorado Office of State Planning and Budgeting, Colorado Joint Budget Committee.)

Idaho’s economy has expanded and diversified in recent years, benefiting from population growth. However, an above-average dependence on the natural resource sector remains. The July 2018 nonfarm employment of 746,000 was up 3.3% from a year earlier. The unemployment rate in July 2018 held steady at 2.9%, well below the national rate of 3.9%. Per capita income levels are 79% of national levels. Idaho’s General Fund fiscal 2018 revenues totaled $3.73 billion. Total revenues came in 2.8% above budget and 8.2% higher than the prior year. Individual income taxes were 3.9% above budget while corporate and sales taxes were 10.6% and 1.3% above budget, respectively. The Idaho legislature enacted a $3.65 billion fiscal 2019 General Fund budget, a 5.9% increase over fiscal 2018. The three largest portions of the budget are public school support, Medicaid, and higher education. Total General Fund revenues are expected to rise by 4.6% to total $3.8 billion in fiscal 2019. (Sources: bls.gov, bea.gov, ncsl.org, Idaho Division of Financial Management.)

New York has a mature, broad-based, and wealthy economy that attracts a highly educated and global workforce. July 2018 nonfarm employment of 9.7 million grew 1.6% from a year earlier. The unemployment rate in July 2018 was

4.3%, slightly above the national rate of 3.9%. Per capita income levels are among the highest in the nation, 21% above national levels. Total receipts for the General Fund for fiscal 2018 were $71.4 billion, up 6.7% from fiscal 2017 but 0.02% below budget. Personal income tax receipts were $46.9 billion in fiscal 2018, 0.7% above budget forecasts. Sales tax revenues totaled $13.2 billion in 2018, about 0.08% below consensus projections. Corporate income taxes were the largest drag on General Fund revenues, coming in at $4.9 billion in fiscal 2018, short of budget projections of $5.1 billion. General Fund expenditures totaled $69.7 billion in fiscal 2018, 0.4% below the revised budget forecast. The state ended fiscal 2018 with a Budgetary General Fund balance of $9.4 billion, up from $7.7 billion in fiscal 2017. New York’s legislature enacted a $76.6 billion General Fund budget for 2019, a 9% increase over the prior year’s budget. Through the first four months of fiscal 2019, revenues totaled $31.9 billion, which was 0.2% above estimates.

Expenditures ran 0.2% below budget. (Sources: bls.gov, bea.gov, ncsl.org, New York Division of the Budget, Office of the New York State Comptroller.)

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 2018 nonfarm employment of 6.02 million grew 1.7% from a year earlier. The monthly unemployment rate in July 2018 was 4.2%, higher than the national rate of 3.9% but down from the prior year. Per capital personal income levels have averaged 103% of national levels. Pennsylvania’s General Fund tax collections totaled $34.6 billion in fiscal 2018, 9.1% above the prior year. Sales tax receipts were 0.4% above budget, personal income collections were 0.7% above budget, and corporate tax revenues were 4.3% below budget projections. For the first time in a decade, the commonwealth

is projected to make a $22 million deposit into the Budget Stabilization Reserve Fund. Pennsylvania enacted a $32.7 billion fiscal 2019 budget, a 2.2% increase over 2018. It includes increases in spending for education, higher education, the corrective system, and healthcare.

Focused on credit research

For all six Funds discussed in this report, we maintained a consistent management strategy, which we do regardless of market conditions. We have a bottom-up investment approach, meaning we evaluate individual securities one at a time. We rely on individual credit research to find securities that we believe provide a desirable risk-reward balance.

This approach often leads to substantial allocations within the Funds to bonds in the lower-investment-grade or below-investment-grade credit tiers, where we seek to add value for shareholders through higher yielding bonds that, in our view, display solid underlying credit.

As of the fiscal year end on Aug. 31, 2018, approximately 41% of the net assets of

Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund was invested in bonds with credit ratings of A and BBB, the two lowest credit tiers of the investment grade bond universe. Roughly 47% of the net assets of Delaware Tax-Free California Fund was held in these credit segments, while Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund’s allocation to bonds with lower-investment-grade credit ratings stood at about 46% of net assets. Meanwhile, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund’s lower-investment-grade bond allocation was just 34%, as Idaho is a relatively small municipal bond market offering fewer opportunities to buy lower-rated, higher yielding bonds. In Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund and Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund, whose investment universes include a greater

variety of lower-rated bonds, we allocated to these types of securities as of fiscal year end.

In addition, all of the Funds had allocations to high yield municipal bonds, securities with credit ratings below BBB. By prospectus, all six Funds have the latitude to invest a portion of the portfolio in these credit tiers. When investing in high yield bonds, we pay close attention to credit risk, focusing on securities that offer sufficiently attractive income, in our view, relative to the added risk.

Portfolio positioning

We entered this fiscal year generally comfortable with the Funds’ positioning. As a result, we were highly selective about making new purchases, seeking securities that provided what we saw as a compelling risk-reward trade-off.

In all six Funds, many of our holdings were originally purchased a decade or more ago when significantly higher yields were available. Thus, we have tended not to replace many existing positions with newer bonds, unless we believe they offer sufficient value to justify such an exchange. Once again, that remained our strategy over the past 12 months, and we expect to continue this approach as long as most of the Funds’ existing holdings remain more attractive to us than the new bonds available for purchase.

During the fiscal year, we periodically saw bonds exit the portfolios, either via bond calls or advance refundings. Some of these bonds were of lower credit quality, and we sought to replace them with other lower-quality issues. However, because we remained highly selective in our purchases – we will not invest in higher yielding bonds that we do not find sufficiently creditworthy – we sometimes found this strategy difficult to execute, particularly in smaller municipal bond markets with limited supply of lower-rated bonds. (Larger municipal markets, such as California, regularly offer portfolio managers a wider assortment of

lower- and below-investment-grade investment opportunities.)

Accordingly, our approach was to temporarily invest in higher-quality, liquid municipal bonds offering maturities comparable to the bonds exiting the portfolios. We expect that when suitable lower-rated bonds become available, these higher-rated issues will become attractive sales candidates to finance new purchases more suited to our long-term criteria.

Individual performance contributors

As we indicated earlier, bonds with longer maturities tended to outperform shorter-maturity bonds, while lower-rated issues generally performed better than bonds of higher credit quality. Accordingly, many of our strongest- and weakest-performing securities this fiscal year followed this trend.

In Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund, for example, the leading individual performer was a position in Pima County Arizona Industrial Development Authority bonds for Edkey charter schools. These securities gained close to 19% for the fiscal year, benefiting from their below-investment-grade credit ratings and 30-year maturities. Bonds for Christian Care Surprise, a Phoenix-based operator of senior-housing facilities also lifted performance. These nonrated bonds with a 30-year maturity returned close to 8% for the Fund.

The strongest performer for Delaware Tax-Free California Fund was a position in zero-coupon Golden State tobacco-securitization bonds. These below-investment-grade issues returned 37%, benefiting from continued strong demand coupled with a shrinking national supply of tobacco bonds as several states opted to refund their tobacco-securitization issues during the period. Investors began to anticipate that the Golden State tobacco bonds would be refunded, boosting their price. Another strong performer for this Fund was a

position in nonrated education bonds for the Creative Center of Los Altos.

In Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund, BB+ rated bonds of the Colorado Educational and Cultural Facilities Authority for the University Lab School, maturing in 2045, performed well, returning near 8%, as did a position in nonrated water-and-sewer bonds for the Dominion Water and Sanitation District, returning more than 7.5%.

In Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, zero-coupon bonds for the North Star Charter School in Eagle, Idaho, performed well, benefiting from their long maturities and lower credit rating, as well as the school’s improved financial performance relative to past years. Corporate-backed industrial development revenue bonds for chemical manufacturer FMC Corporation also contributed. The lower-investment-grade credit rating of these bonds and their relatively high yield proved attractive to investors.

In Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund, the leading individual performers were BBB-rated airport bonds for JFK International Terminal and nonrated Glen Cove Local Economic Assistance Corporation tax-increment-financing bonds.

The strongest-performing securities in Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund consisted of similarly structured higher-education bond issues for Carlow University and St. Francis University. Both featured a BBB credit rating, relatively high yields and long-term maturities.

Individual performance detractors

In Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund, the biggest individual detractors were high-quality, shorter-maturity bonds: dedicated-tax issues of the Regional Public Transportation Authority for Maricopa County and water-and-sewer bonds for the City of Phoenix Civic Improvement Corporation. Both bonds declined more than 1.5%.

Portfolio management review

Delaware Funds^® by Macquarie state tax-free funds

Performance for Delaware Tax-Free California Fund was hampered by a position in Encore Education charter school bonds. Despite their relatively lower credit rating and longer maturity, the issuer fell short of meeting certain academic standards, causing the bonds to lag during the period, declining more than 3%. We continued to see the issuer as creditworthy, however, and maintained the Fund’s position, anticipating better results in the future. Anaheim City School District bonds, whose credit rating of AA- and near-term maturity date proved less attractive to investors, also detracted from performance.

In Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund, a pair of highly rated, short-maturity issues detracted from performance: Jefferson County School District bonds (rated AA- and maturing in 2024) and Platte River Power Authority public power bonds (rated AA and maturing in 2027).

In Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, a pair of highly rated, short-maturity school district bonds for Canyon County School District 131 and Madison County School District 321 declined modestly.

A couple of higher-quality, shorter-maturity bonds were notable laggards for Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund: New York State Dormitory Authority bonds and pre-refunded Onondaga Civic Development Corporation bonds for the St. Joseph’s Hospital Health Center.

Of final note, bonds for the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, whose relatively high credit rating and 2025 maturity proved unattractive to investors, hampered performance for

Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund.In addition, the Fund’s position in pre-refunded bonds for the Pocono Medical Center detracted from performance.

*The benchmark lifetime return is for Institutional Class share comparison only and is calculated using the last business day in the month of the Fund’s Institutional Class inception date.

¹Returns 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 not subject to a sales charge and are offered for sale exclusively to certain eligible investors. In addition, Institutional Class shares pay no distribution and service fee.

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 bond that is held by a portfolio will be prepaid prior to maturity, at the time when interest rates are lower than what the bond was paying. A portfolio may then have to reinvest that money at a lower interest rate.

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

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

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.

This document may mention bond ratings published by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (NRSROs) Standard & Poor’s,

Moody’s Investors Service, and Fitch, Inc. For securities rated by an NRSRO other than S&P, the rating is converted to the equivalent S&P credit rating. Bonds rated AAA are rated as having the highest quality and are generally considered to have the lowest degree of investment risk. Bonds rated AA are considered to be of high quality, but with a slightly higher degree of risk than bonds rated AAA. Bonds rated A are considered to have many favorable investment qualities, though they are somewhat more susceptible to adverse economic conditions. Bonds rated BBB are believed to be of medium-grade quality and generally riskier over the long term. Bonds rated BB, B, and CCC are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics, with BB indicating the least degree of speculation of the three.

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.

contingent deferred sales charges did not apply or that the investment was not redeemed.

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

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.

This document may mention bond ratings published by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (NRSROs) Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and Fitch, Inc. For securities rated by an NRSRO other than S&P, the rating is converted to the equivalent S&P credit rating. Bonds rated AAA are rated as having the highest quality and are generally considered to have the lowest degree of investment risk. Bonds rated AA are considered to be of high quality, but with a slightly higher degree of risk than bonds rated AAA. Bonds rated A are considered to have many favorable investment qualities, though they are somewhat more susceptible to adverse economic conditions. Bonds rated BBB are believed to be of medium-grade quality and generally riskier over the long term. Bonds rated BB, B, and CCC are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics, with BB indicating the least degree of speculation of the three.

²The Fund’s expense ratios, as described in the most recent prospectus, are disclosed in the following “Fund expense ratios” table. 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, short sale and dividend and 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 0.64% of the Fund’s average daily net assets during the period from Sept. 1, 2017 to Aug. 31, 2018.* Please see the most recent prospectus and any applicable supplement(s) for additional information on these fee waivers and/or reimbursements.

Disclosure of Fund expenses

For the six-month period from March 1, 2018 to August 31, 2018 (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 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-month period from March 1, 2018 to Aug. 31, 2018.

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.

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 referred to as a Trust, or 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 a Fund, or collectively, the Funds). Each Fund is an open-end investment company. The Funds are considered diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (1940 Act), 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) instead of a front-end sales charge of 1.00%, which will be incurred 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. 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 US generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) and are consistently followed by the Funds. Each Fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies.

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. 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. Restricted securities are valued at fair value using methods approved by the Boards.

144

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 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 or expected to be taken on each Fund’s federal income tax returns through the year ended Aug. 31, 2018 and for all open tax years (years ended Aug. 31, 2015–Aug. 31, 2017), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in each Fund’s financial statements. If applicable, each Fund recognizes interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in other expenses on the “Statements of operations.” During the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, the Funds did not incur any interest or tax penalties.

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 US GAAP. Therefore, each Fund follows the accounting and reporting guidelines for investment companies. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US 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 Funds^® by Macquarie (Delaware Funds) are generally allocated among such funds on the basis of average net assets. Management fees and certain 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 receives earnings credits from its custodian when positive cash balances are maintained, which may be used to offset custody fees. The expense paid under this arrangement is included on the “Statements of operations” under “Custodian fees” with the corresponding expense offset included under “Less expenses paid indirectly.”

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 Macquarie Investment Management Business Trust and the investment manager, an annual fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly 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%
On the next $500 million		0.475%		0.500%		0.500%		0.500%		0.500%		0.500%
On the next $1.5 billion		0.450%		0.450%		0.450%		0.450%		0.450%		0.450%
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 distribution and service (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), do not exceed specified percentages of each Fund’s average daily net assets from Sept. 1, 2017 through Aug. 31, 2018* as shown on the next page. 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

146

be terminated by agreement of DMC and each Fund. The waivers and reimbursements are accrued daily and received monthly.


	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
Operating expense limitation as a percentage of average daily net assets (per annum)		0.59%		0.57%		0.59%		0.61%		0.55%		0.64%

Delaware Investments Fund Services Company (DIFSC), an affiliate of DMC, provides fund accounting and financial administration oversight services to the Funds. For these services, DIFSC’s fees are calculated daily and paid monthly based on the aggregate daily net assets of all Funds within the Delaware Funds at the following annual rate: 0.00475% of the first $35 billion; 0.0040% of the next $10 billion; and 0.0025% of aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $45 billion (Total Fee). Each Fund in the Delaware Funds pays a minimum of $4,000, which, in aggregate, is subtracted from the Total Fee. Each Fund then pays its portion of the remainder of the Total Fee on a relative NAV basis. These amounts are included on the “Statements of operations” under “Accounting and administration expenses.” For the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, each Fund was charged for these services 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
$6,931	$7,752	$11,606	$7,924	$7,341	$21,341

DIFSC is also the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent of each Fund. For these services, DIFSC’s fees were calculated daily and paid monthly based on the aggregate daily net assets of the retail funds within the Delaware Funds from Sept. 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018 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. Effective July 1, 2018, each Fund as well as the other Delaware Funds entered into an amendment to the DIFSC agreement. Under the amendment to the DIFSC agreement, DIFSC’s fees are calculated daily and paid monthly based on the aggregate daily net assets of the retail funds within the Delaware Funds at the following annual rate: 0.014% of the first $20 billion; 0.011% of the next $5 billion; 0.007% of the next $5 billion; 0.005% of the next $20 billion; and 0.0025% of average daily net assets in excess of $50 billion. The fees payable to DIFSC under the transfer agent agreement described above are allocated among all retail funds in the Delaware Funds on a relative NAV basis. These amounts are included on the “Statements of operations” under “Dividend disbursing and transfer agent fees and expenses.” For the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, each Fund was charged for these services 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

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

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 “Statement 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 12b-1 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 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. The fees are calculated daily and paid monthly. Institutional Class shares pay no 12b-1 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 provide legal, tax, and regulatory reporting services to each Fund. These amounts are included on the “Statements of operations” under “Legal fees.” For the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, each Fund was charged for internal legal, tax, and regulatory reporting services provided by DMC and/or its affiliates’ employees 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
$1,533	$1,969	$3,981	$2,063	$17,711	$8,991

For the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, DDLP earned commissions on sales of Class A shares for each Fund 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
$3,931	$4,924	$24,952	$7,317	$9,156	$30,188

For the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, DDLP received gross CDSC commissions on redemptions of each Fund’s Class A and Class C shares, respectively, and these commissions were entirely used to offset upfront commissions previously paid by DDLP to broker/dealers on sales of those shares. For the year

148

ended Aug. 31, 2018, Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund did not receive gross CDSC commissions on redemptions for Class A and Class C shares. The amounts received were as follows:


	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
Class A	$—	$238		$ —		$ —		$ —
Class C	89	401		4,476		544		2,954

Trustees’ fees include expenses accrued by each Fund for each Trustee’s retainer and meeting fees. Certain officers of DMC, DIFSC, and DDLP are officers and/or Trustees of the Trusts. These officers and Trustees are paid no compensation by the Funds.

Cross trades for the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, were executed by the Funds pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board 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. Delaware Tax-Free California Fund and Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund did not engage in securities cross trades for the year ended Aug. 31, 2018. Pursuant to these procedures, for the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, the following Funds engaged in 17a-7 securities purchases and 17a-7 securities sales, which resulted in net realized gains (losses) as follows:


	Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund		Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund		Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund		Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund
Purchases		$ —		$5,786,628		$ —		$2,700,728

3. Investments (continued)

The tax cost of investments includes adjustments to net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) which may not necessarily be final tax cost basis adjustments, but approximate the tax basis unrealized gains and losses that may be realized and distributed to shareholders. At Aug. 31, 2018, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments for federal income tax purposes for each Fund were 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
Cost of investments	$	72,748,059		$	95,098,903		$	193,814,033		$	95,342,082		$	84,338,397		$	424,051,721

US 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 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 and on the next page.

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

150

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, 2018:

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		12.25	%
Level 2		87.75	%

Total		100.00	%

During the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, 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 based on fair value 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. During the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, there were no Level 3 investments.

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 and dividends payable, as applicable.

Qualified late year losses represent losses realized on investment transactions from Nov. 1, 2017 through Aug. 31, 2018 that, in accordance with federal income tax regulations, Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund has elected to defer and treat as having arisen in the following fiscal year.

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 market discount and premium on certain debt instruments. Results of operations and net assets were not affected by these reclassifications.

For the year ended Aug. 31, 2018, the Funds recorded the following reclassifications:


	Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund			Delaware Tax-Free California Fund			Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund			Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund
Undistributed (distributions in excess of) net investment income	$	(11,073	)		$ 9,322		$	(5,899	)		$ 14,956
Accumulated net realized loss on investments		11,073			(9,322	)		5,899			(14,956	)

For federal income tax purposes, capital loss carryforwards may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. In 2018, 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
$379,155	$275,180	$124,725	$294,641	$167,422	$206,243

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (Act), net capital losses recognized for tax years beginning after Dec. 22, 2010 may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term and/or long-term losses. At Aug. 31, 2018, capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains, were as follows:


	No expiration Post-enactment capital loss character
	Short-term	Long-term	Total
Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund	$ 122,999	$ 499,361	$ 622,360
Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund	2,984,098	895,093	3,879,191
Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund	1,843,008	2,773,159	4,616,167
Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund	549,357	—	549,357

At Aug. 31, 2018, there were no capital loss carryforwards for Delaware Tax-Free California Fund and Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund.

7. Line of Credit

Each Fund, along with certain other funds in the Delaware Funds (Participants), was a participant in a $155,000,000 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 0.15%, which was generally allocated across the Participants based on a weighted average of the respective net assets of each Participant. 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. 6, 2017.

On Nov. 6, 2017, 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 and operates in substantially the same manner as the original agreement. The line of credit available under the agreement expires on Nov. 5, 2018.

The Funds had no amounts outstanding as of Aug. 31, 2018, 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 US territories and possessions such as the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the US 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 US 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.

158

At Aug. 31, 2018, 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.”


	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
American Capital Access	1.31%	—	—		—	—	—
Assured Guaranty Corporation	—	—	—		—	—	3.42%

	6.11%	2.87%	8.23%		10.04%	0.04%	6.73%

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.

When interest rates rise, fixed income securities (i.e., debt obligations) generally will decline in value. These declines in value are greater for fixed income securities with longer maturities or durations.

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.

Each Fund 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

159

Notes to financial statements

Delaware Funds^® by Macquarie state tax-free funds

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

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, each Board has delegated to DMC, the day-to-day functions of determining whether individual securities are liquid for purposes of the 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 securities held by the Funds have been identified on the “Schedules of investments.” Restricted securities are valued pursuant to the security valuation procedures described in Note 1.

9. Contractual Obligations

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

10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update, ASU 2018-13, which changes certain fair value measurement disclosure requirements. The ASU includes additions and modifications to disclosures for Level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after Dec. 15, 2019. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.

160

In March 2017, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update, ASU 2017-08, Receivables — Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities which amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium, shortening such period to the earliest call date. The ASU 2017-08 does not require any accounting change for debt securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The ASU 2017-08 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after Dec. 15, 2018. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.

11. Subsequent Events

On Sept. 6, 2018, the credit facility that each Fund participates in was reduced from a $155,000,000 to a $130,000,000 revolving line of credit. This line of credit will expire on Nov. 5, 2018.

Management has determined that no other material events or transactions occurred subsequent to Aug. 31, 2018, that would require recognition or disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.

registered public accounting firm

To the Board of Trustees of Voyageur Insured Funds, Voyageur Mutual Funds, Voyageur Mutual Funds II and Delaware Group^® State Tax-Free Income Trust and Shareholders of Delaware Tax-Free Arizona Fund, Delaware Tax-Free California Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Idaho Fund, Delaware Tax-Free New York Fund, Delaware Tax-Free Colorado Fund and Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, 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 funds 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”) as of August 31, 2018, the related statements of operations for the year ended August 31, 2018, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2018, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of August 31, 2018, 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 ended August 31, 2018 and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2018 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Board consideration of advisory agreements 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

At a meeting held on Aug. 15–16, 2018 (the “Annual Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including a majority of disinterested or independent Trustees, approved the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements 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

163

Other Fund information (Unaudited)

Delaware Funds^® by Macquarie state tax-free funds

prepared specifically in connection with the renewal of the investment advisory contracts. Information furnished specifically in connection with the renewal of the Investment Management Agreement with Delaware Management Company (“DMC”), a series of Macquarie Investment Management Business Trust (“MIMBT”) included materials provided by DMC and its affiliates (collectively, “Macquarie Investment Management”) 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, materials were provided to the Trustees in May 2018, including reports provided by 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 and also from an experienced and knowledgeable independent fund consultant, JDL Consultants, LLC (“JDL”). 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 the Funds and their 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 the Funds; compliance of portfolio managers with the investment policies, strategies, and restrictions for the Funds; compliance by DMC and Delaware Distributors, L.P. (together, “Management”) personnel with the Code of Ethics adopted throughout the Delaware Funds^® by Macquarie (“Delaware Funds”); and adherence to fair value pricing procedures as established by the Board. The Board was pleased with the current staffing of DMC and the emphasis placed on research in the investment process. The Board recognized DMC’s receipt of certain favorable industry distinctions during the past several years. The Board gave favorable consideration to DMC’s efforts to control expenses while maintaining service levels committed to Fund matters. The Board also noted the benefits provided to Fund shareholders (a) through each shareholder’s ability to: (i) exchange an investment in one Delaware Fund for the same class of shares in another Delaware Fund without a sales charge, or (ii) to reinvest Fund dividends into additional shares of the Fund or into additional shares of other Delaware

164

Funds, and (b) the privilege to combine holdings in other Delaware 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 considered 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 periods, to the extent applicable, ended Jan. 31, 2018. The Board’s objective is that each Fund’s performance for the 1-, 3-, and 5-year periods 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-, 5-, and 10-year periods 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 3-year periods was in the second quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 5-year period was in the third quartile of its Performance Universe and 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 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- and 3-year periods was in the first quartile of its Performance Universe. The report further showed that the Fund’s total return for the 5- and 10-year periods was in the third quartile of its Performance Universe. 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- and 3-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 first quartile of its Performance Universe. The Board was satisfied with performance.

Comparative expenses. The Board considered expense data for the Delaware 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 total 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 for each Fund’s total expense ratio to be competitive with those of the peer funds within its 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 December 2018 and various initiatives implemented by Management, such as the negotiation of lower fees for fund accounting, fund accounting oversight services, and custody, 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 lowest expenses of its Expense Group. The Board was satisfied with the management fee and total expenses of the Fund in comparison to those of its Expense Group as shown in the Broadridge report.

166

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 December 2018 and various initiatives implemented by Management, such as a negotiation of lower fees for fund accounting, fund accounting oversight services, and custody, 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.

The Board was satisfied with the management fee and total expenses of the Fund in comparison to those of its Expense Group as shown in the Broadridge report.

Delaware Tax-Free Pennsylvania Fund — The expense comparisons for the Fund showed that its actual management fee was in the quartile with the second highest expenses of its Expense Group and its total expenses were in the quartile with the highest expenses of its Expense Group. The Board noted that the Fund’s management fee and total expenses were not in line with the Board’s objective.

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 Funds as a whole. Specific attention was given to the methodology used by DMC 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 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 Funds and the benefits from allocation of fund brokerage to improve trading efficiencies. As part of its work, the Board also reviewed a report prepared by JDL regarding MIMBT profitability as compared to certain peer fund complexes and the Independent Trustees met with JDL personnel to discuss DMC’s profitability in such context. 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 Funds’ advisory fee pricing and structure, approved by the Board and shareholders, which includes breakpoints, and which applies to most funds in the Delaware 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. Although, as of March 31, 2018, the Funds had not reached a size at which they could take advantage of any breakpoints in the applicable fee schedule, the Board recognized that the fee was structured so that if the Funds increase sufficiently in size, then economies of scale may be shared.

This fee limit is based on aggregate fees to the investment adviser and its Control Affiliates.

(g) The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the registrant’s independent auditors for services rendered to the registrant and to its investment adviser and other service providers under common control with the adviser were $11,748,000 and $11,180,000 for the registrant’s fiscal years ended August 31, 2018 and August 31, 2017, respectively.

(h) In connection with its selection of the independent auditors, the registrant’s Audit Committee has considered the independent auditors’ provision of non-audit services to the registrant’s investment adviser and other service providers under common control with the adviser that were not required to be pre-approved pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(ii) of Regulation S-X. The Audit Committee has determined that the independent auditors’ provision of these services is compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence.
