An investment in money market funds is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although these funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in these funds.
As a shareholder in First American Funds you receive shareholder reports semiannually. We strive to present this financial information in an easy-to-understand format; however, for many investors, the information contained in this shareholder report may seem very technical. So we would like to take this opportunity to explain several sections of the shareholder report.
The Schedule of Investments details all of the securities held in the fund and their related dollar values on the last day of the reporting period. Securities are presented by type (certificates of deposit, government agency debt, etc.) or, for Tax Free Obligations Fund, by state. This information is useful for analyzing how your fund’s assets are invested and seeing where your portfolio manager believes the best opportunities exist to meet your objectives. Holdings are subject to change without notice and do not constitute a recommendation of any individual security. The Notes to the Financial Statements provide additional details on how the securities are valued.
The Statement of Assets and Liabilities lists the assets and liabilities of the fund and presents the fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share on the last day of the reporting period. The NAV is calculated by dividing the fund’s net assets (assets minus liabilities) by the number of shares outstanding. The investments as presented in the Schedule of Investments comprise substantially all of the fund’s assets. Other assets include cash and receivables for items such as income earned by the fund but not yet received. Liabilities include payables for items such as fund expenses incurred but not yet paid.
The Statement of Operations details the dividends and interest income earned from securities as well as the expenses incurred by the fund during the reporting period. Fund expenses may be reduced through fee waivers or reimbursements. This statement reflects total expenses before any waivers or reimbursements, the amount of waivers and reimbursements (if any), and the net expenses. This statement also shows the net realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments owned during the period. The Notes to Financial Statements provide additional details on investment income and expenses of the fund.
The Statement of Changes in Net Assets describes how the fund’s net assets were affected by its operating results, distributions to shareholders, and shareholder transactions during the reporting period. This statement is important to investors because it shows exactly what caused the fund’s net asset size to change during the period.
The Financial Highlights provide a per-share breakdown of the components that affected the fund’s NAV for the current and past reporting periods. It also shows total return, expense ratios and net investment income ratios. The net investment income ratios summarize the income earned less expenses, divided by the average net assets. The expense ratios represent the percentage of average net assets that were used to cover operating expenses during the period. Expense ratios can vary across funds for a number of reasons, including differences in advisory fees and the average shareholder account size.
The Notes to Financial Statements disclose the organizational background of the fund, its significant accounting policies, federal tax information, fees and compensation paid to affiliates, and significant risks and contingencies.
We hope this guide to your shareholder report will help you get the most out of this important resource. You can visit First American Funds’ website for other useful information on each of our funds, including fund prices, performance, fund manager bios, dividends, and downloadable fact sheets.

Table of Contents
Expense Example As a shareholder of one or more of the funds, you incur ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the funds 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 in a fund at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from September 1, 2014 to February 28, 2015. Actual Expenses For each class of each fund, two lines are presented in the table below – the first line for each class provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested in the particular fund and class, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value in the fund and class 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 line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” for your fund and class to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. | | Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes For each class of each fund, the second line for each class provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the respective fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical examples 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). Therefore, the second line of the tables for each class of each fund is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. |

1 > | Organization |
| |
| The Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund (each a “fund” and collectively, the “funds”) are mutual funds offered by First American Funds, Inc. (“FAF”), which is a member of the First American Family of Funds. FAF is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“Investment Company Act”), as an open-end investment management company. FAF’s articles of incorporation permit the board of directors to create additional funds in the future. |
| |
| FAF offers Class A, Class D, Class I, Class Y, Class Z, Institutional Investor Class, and Reserve Class shares. Class A shares are not subject to sales charges. Class D, Class I, Class Y, Class Z, Institutional Investor Class, and Reserve Class shares are offered only to qualifying institutional investors. Class I shares are offered by Prime Obligations Fund only. Reserve Class shares are offered by Treasury Obligations Fund only. |
| |
| Each fund’s prospectus provides descriptions of its investment objective, principal investment strategies, and principal risks. All classes of shares of a fund have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, and the same terms and conditions, except that certain fees and expenses, including distribution and shareholder servicing fees, may differ among classes. Each class has exclusive voting rights on any matters relating to its servicing or distribution arrangements. |
| |
2 > | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
| |
| The significant accounting policies followed by the funds are as follows: |
| |
| security valuations– Investment securities held are stated at amortized cost (except for investments in other money market funds), which approximates fair value. Under the amortized cost method any discount or premium is amortized ratably to the final maturity of the security and is included in interest income. Investments in other money market funds are valued at their respective net asset values on the valuation date. In accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, the fair values of the securities held in the funds are determined using prices supplied by the funds’ independent pricing services. Securities for which prices are not available from an independent pricing service, but where an active market exists, are valued using market quotations obtained from one or more dealers that make markets in the securities. These values are then compared to the securities’ amortized cost. If the advisor concludes that the price obtained from the pricing service is not reliable, |
| or if the pricing service does not provide a price for a security, the advisor will use the fair value of the security for purposes of this comparison, which will be determined pursuant to procedures approved by the board of directors. If the difference between the aggregate market price and aggregate amortized cost of all securities held by a fund exceeds 0.25%, the funds’ administrator will notify the funds’ board of directors and will monitor the deviation on a daily basis. If the difference exceeds 0.50%, a meeting of the board of directors will be convened, and the board will determine what action, if any, to take. During the six-month period ended February 28, 2015, the differences between the aggregate market price and the aggregate amortized cost of all securities did not exceed 0.25% for any fund. |
| |
| Generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) require disclosures regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value and any changes in valuation inputs or technique. These principles establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value. Fair value inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. |
| |
| Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, with similar interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Generally, the types of securities included in Level 2 of a fund are U.S. Treasury bills and certain money market instruments valued at amortized cost pursuant to Rule 2a-7. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2. |
| |
| Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). Generally, the types of securities included in Level 3 of a fund are securities for which there is limited or no observable fair value inputs available, and as such the fair value is determined through independent broker quotations or management’s fair value procedures established by the board of directors. Some of the factors which may be considered in determining fair value are fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and duration of any restrictions on disposition; trading in similar securities of the same issuer or comparable companies; information from broker-dealers; and/or evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold. |
| |
| The fair value levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. |

During the six-month period ended February 28, 2015, there were no transfers between fair value levels or Level 3 securities.
illiquid or restricted securities – A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market. Securities are generally considered liquid if they can be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the price at which the security is valued by the fund. Illiquid securities may be valued under methods approved by the funds’ board of directors as reflecting fair value. Certain restricted securities may be considered illiquid. Restricted securities are often purchased in private placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, may have contractual restrictions on resale, and may be valued under methods approved by the funds’ board of directors as reflecting fair value. Certain restricted securities eligible for resale to qualified institutional investors, including Rule 144A securities, are not subject to the limitation on a fund’s investment in illiquid securities if they are determined to be liquid in accordance with procedures adopted by the funds’ board of directors.
At February 28, 2015, the funds did not hold any restricted securities other than the Rule 144A securities disclosed in the Schedules of Investments. As of February 28, 2015, Prime Obligations Fund has investments in illiquid securities with a total value of $345,000 or 2.8% of total net assets.
security transactions and investment income – For financial statement purposes, the funds record security transactions on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Interest income, including amortization of bond premium and discount, is recorded on an accrual basis.
distributions to shareholders – Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and are payable in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the fund at net asset value on the first business day of the following month.
federal taxes – Each fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. Each fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company as provided in Sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and to distribute all taxable income, if any, to its shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

| As of August 31, 2014, the funds’ most recent completed fiscal year end, the funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Generally, tax authorities can examine all tax returns filed for the last three years. Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes because of temporary or permanent book-to-tax differences. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made to the appropriate equity accounts in the period in which the differences arise. The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from its ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. In addition, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal period in which the amounts are distributed may differ from the period that the income or realized gains were recorded by the fund. The distributions paid during the six-month period ended February 28, 2015 (estimated) and fiscal year ended August 31, 2014 (adjusted by dividends payable as of February 28, 2015 and August 31, 2014) were as follows: |

| The differences between book-basis and tax-basis undistributed/accumulated income, gains, and losses are primarily due to distributions declared but not paid by August 31, 2014. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. Any losses incurred during those taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under the previous law. As of August 31, 2014, the following funds had capital loss carryforwards, which, if not offset by subsequent capital gains, will expire on the fund’s fiscal year-ends as follows: |

| During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, and Treasury Obligations Fund utilized $26, $8, and $92, respectively, of capital loss carryforwards. U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund incurred a loss of $5 for tax purposes, for the period from November 1, 2013 to August 31, 2014. As permitted by tax regulations, the fund intends to elect to defer and treat this loss as arising in the fiscal year ending August 31, 2015. repurchase agreements – Each fund (other than U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund) may enter into repurchase agreements with counterparties whom the funds’ investment advisor deems creditworthy, subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase such securities from the funds at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by the fund plus interest, at a rate that is negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates. |
| Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by the custodian bank or maintained in a segregated account by an unaffiliated third-party custodian bank until the maturity of the respective repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreements are designed to ensure that the value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default of the counterparty. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the fund may be delayed or limited. Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the funds may enter into repurchase agreements (and other short-term investments) on a joint basis. |
| The table below shows the offsetting assets and liabilities relating to the repurchase agreements shown on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. |

1 | Net amount represents the net amount due (to) from counterparty in the event of a default based on the contractual set-off rights under the agreement. Net amount excludes any over-collateralized amounts. |
| securities lending– In order to generate additional income, each of the funds other than U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund may lend portfolio securities representing up to one-third of the value of its total assets to broker-dealers, banks or other institutional borrowers of securities. Only Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, and Treasury Obligations Fund do so as a principal investment strategy. Each fund’s policy is to maintain collateral in the form of cash, U.S. government securities, or other high-grade debt obligations equal to at least 100% of the value of securities loaned. The collateral is then “marked to market” daily until the securities are returned. As with other extensions of credit, there may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the security fail financially. Cash collateral is invested in short-term, high quality U.S. dollar-denominated securities that would be eligible for investment by a money market fund under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act. As of February 28, 2015, the funds had no securities on loan. U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”), the parent company of the funds’ advisor, serves as the securities lending agent for the funds in transactions involving the lending of portfolio securities on behalf of the fund. U.S. Bank acts as the securities lending agent pursuant to, and subject to compliance with, conditions contained in an exemptive order issued by the SEC. As the securities lending agent, U.S. Bank receives fees of up to 20% of each fund’s net income from securities lending transactions and pays half of such fees to U.S. Bancorp Asset Management, Inc. (“USBAM”) for certain securities lending services provided by USBAM. For the six-month period ended February 28, 2015, no fees were paid to U.S. Bank for serving as the securities lending agent. |
Notes to Financial Statements | (unaudited as to February 28,2015), all dollars and shares are rounded to thousands (000) |
| expenses– Expenses that are directly related to one of the funds are charged directly to that fund. Other operating expenses are allocated to the funds on several bases, including relative net assets of all funds. Class specific expenses, such as distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees, are borne by that class. |
| |
| interfund lending program– Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds, along with other registered investment companies in the First American Family of Funds, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the funds to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating funds. The funds did not have any interfund lending transactions during the six-month period ended February 28, 2015. |
| |
| deferred compensation plan – Prior to January 1, 2011, non-interested directors of the First American Family of Funds were able to defer receipt of part or all of their annual compensation under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). Deferred amounts were treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of open-end First American Funds, as designated by each director. The Plan was terminated effective December 31, 2010. All amounts held in the Plan are 100% vested and outstanding account balances under the Plan are obligations of the funds into which amounts were deferred. Deferred amounts remain in the funds until distributed in accordance with the Plan. |
| |
| use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements – The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
| |
| events subsequent to period end – Management has evaluated fund-related events and transactions that occurred subsequent to February 28, 2015 through the date of issuance of the funds’ financial statements. There were no events or transactions that occurred during this period that materially impacted the amounts or disclosures in the funds’ financial statements. |
| |
3 > | Fees and Expenses |
| |
| investment advisory fees – Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement, USBAM manages each fund’s assets and furnishes related office facilities, equipment, research and personnel. The agreement requires each fund to pay USBAM a monthly fee equal, on an annual basis, to 0.10% of the fund’s average daily net assets. |
| |
| Effective October 30, 2008 for Treasury Obligations Fund and December 22, 2008 for each other fund, the advisor |
| voluntarily agreed to waive or reimburse certain fees and expenses and the board of directors approved the suspension or reduction of 12b-1 fee payments, as needed, in order to maintain a zero or positive yield for each share class of each fund. Effective February 1, 2011 for Government Obligations Fund Class Z shares and June 1, 2011 for Class Z shares of Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, the advisor contractually agreed to waive fees and reimburse other fund expenses so that total annual fund operating expenses, after waivers, do not exceed 0.20%. These contractual waivers and reimbursements will remain in effect through October 31, 2015, and may not be terminated prior to such time without the approval of the funds’ board of directors. Waivers and reimbursements by the advisor are otherwise voluntary and may be terminated at any time by the advisor. In order to maintain a minimum yield, or, in the case of Class Z shares, to keep total annual fund operating expenses from exceeding 0.20%, USBAM waived or reimbursed investment advisory fees of $1,516, $361, $1,713, and $498 for Government Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, respectively, during the six-month period ended February 28, 2015. |
| |
| administration fees – USBAM serves as the funds’ administrator pursuant to an administration agreement between USBAM and the funds. U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (“USBFS”) serves as sub-administrator pursuant to a sub-administration agreement between USBFS and USBAM. USBAM is a subsidiary of U.S. Bank. Both U.S. Bank and USBFS are direct subsidiaries of U.S. Bancorp. Under the administration agreement, USBAM is compensated to provide, or compensates other entities to provide, services to the funds. These services include various legal, oversight, administrative, and accounting services. The funds pay USBAM administration fees, which are calculated daily and paid monthly, equal to each fund’s pro rata share of an amount equal, on an annual basis, to 0.20% of the aggregate average daily Class A share net assets and 0.15% of the aggregate average daily net assets for all other share classes of all funds, up to $8 billion, 0.185% for Class A shares and 0.135% for all other classes on the next $17 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, 0.17% for Class A shares and 0.12% for all other classes on the next $25 billion of aggregate average daily net assets, and 0.15% for Class A shares and 0.10% for all other classes of the aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $50 billion. All fees paid to the sub-administrator are paid from the administration fee. In addition to these fees, the funds may reimburse USBAM and the sub-administrator for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing administration services. |

Table of Contents
| In order to maintain minimum yields for each fund, or, in the case of Class Z shares, to keep total annual fund operating expenses from exceeding 0.20%, USBAM voluntarily waived or reimbursed administration fees of $11,954, $4,894, $505, $5,596, and $677 for Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, respectively, during the six-month period ended February 28, 2015. |
| |
| transfer agent fees – USBFS serves as the funds’ transfer agent pursuant to a transfer agent agreement between USBFS and the funds. The funds are charged transfer agent fees on a per shareholder account basis, subject to a minimum fee per share class, based upon the number of accounts within each fund. In addition to these fees, the funds may reimburse USBFS for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing transfer agent services. |
| |
| custodian fees – U.S. Bank serves as the funds’ custodian pursuant to a custodian agreement between U.S. Bank and the funds. The custodian fee charged for each fund is equal to an annual rate of 0.005% of average daily net assets. All fees are computed daily and paid monthly. Under the custodian agreement, interest earned on uninvested cash balances is used to reduce a portion of each fund’s custodian expenses. These credits, if any, are disclosed as “Indirect payments from custodian” in the Statements of Operations. Conversely, the custodian charges a fee for any cash overdrafts incurred, which increases the fund’s custodian expenses. |
| |
| For the six-month period ended February 28, 2015, custodian fees were neither increased as a result of overdrafts nor decreased as a result of interest earned. |
| |
| distribution and shareholder servicing (12b - 1) fees - Quasar Distributors, LLC (“Quasar”), a subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp, serves as distributor of the funds pursuant to a distribution agreement between Quasar and the funds. Under the distribution agreement and pursuant to a plan adopted by each fund under rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act, each fund pays Quasar a monthly distribution and/or shareholder servicing fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25%, 0.15%, and 0.50% of each fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares, Class D shares, and Reserve Class shares, respectively. No distribution or shareholder servicing fees are paid by Institutional Investor Class shares, Class Y shares, Class I shares, or Class Z shares. These fees may be used by Quasar to provide compensation for sales support, distribution activities, and/or shareholder servicing activities. In order to maintain minimum yields for each fund, or, in the case of Class Z shares, to keep total annual fund operating expenses from exceeding 0.20%, 12b-1 distri- |
| bution and shareholder servicing fees were reimbursed or suspended in the amounts of $2,388, $2,390, $178, $1,810, and $226 for Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, respectively, during the six-month period ended February 28, 2015. |
| |
| Under the distribution agreement, no amounts were retained by affiliates of USBAM for the six-month period ended February 28, 2015. |
| |
| shareholder servicing (non - 12b - 1) fees – FAF has also adopted and entered into a shareholder servicing plan and agreement with USBAM, under which USBAM has agreed to provide FAF, or will enter into written agreements with other service providers pursuant to which the service providers will provide FAF, with non-distribution-related services to shareholders of Class A, Class D, Class I, Class Y shares, Institutional Investor Class, and Reserve Class shares. Each fund pays USBAM a monthly shareholder servicing fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class D, Class Y, and Reserve Class shares, a fee equal to an annual rate of 0.20% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class I shares, and a fee equal to an annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets attributable to Institutional Investor Class shares. In order to maintain minimum yields for each fund, or, in the case of Class Z shares, to keep total annual fund operating expenses from exceeding 0.20%, USBAM voluntarily waived or reimbursed shareholder servicing fees of $11,760, $8,302, $750, $5,872, and $855 for Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, respectively, during the six-month period ended February 28, 2015. |
| |
| Under this shareholder servicing plan and agreement, no amounts were paid to USBAM for the six-month period ended February 28, 2015. |
| |
| expense reimbursement – In addition to fee waivers, USBAM voluntarily reimbursed expenses of $68 and $76 for Tax Free Obligations Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, respectively, in order to maintain minimum yields for each share class. |
| |
| other expenses – In addition to the investment advisory fees, administration fees, transfer agent fees, custodian fees, and distribution and shareholder servicing fees, each fund is responsible for paying most other operating expenses, including: legal, auditing, registration fees, postage and printing of shareholder reports, fees and expenses of independent directors, insurance, and other miscellaneous expenses. |

4 > | Portfolio Characteristics of the Tax Free Obligations Fund |
| |
| The Tax Free Obligations Fund invests in municipal securities. At February 28, 2015, the percentage of portfolio investments by each category was as follows: |
| | | Tax Free | |
| | | Obligations Fund | |
| Weekly Variable Rate Demand Notes | | | 65.9 | % |
| Other Municipal Notes & Bonds | | | 14.2 | |
| Daily Variable Rate Notes & Bonds | | | 13.5 | |
| Commercial Paper & Put Bonds | | | 6.4 | |
| | | | 100.0 | % |
| The Tax Free Obligations Fund invests in longer-term securities that include revenue bonds, tax and revenue anticipation notes, and general obligation bonds. At February 28, 2015, the percentage of total portfolio investments by each revenue source, was as follows: |
| | | Tax Free | |
| | | Obligations Fund | |
| Revenue Bonds | | | 91.8 | % |
| General Obligations | | | 8.2 | |
| | | | 100.0 | % |
5 > | Indemnifications |
| |
| The funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as it would be dependent upon future claims that may be made against the funds. However, the funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote. |
6 > | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
| |
| In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued ASU No. 2014-11 “Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures.” ASU No. 2014-11 makes limited changes to the accounting for repurchase agreements, clarifies when repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions should be accounted for as secured borrowings, and requires additional disclosures regarding these types of transactions. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact these disclosures will have on the funds’ financial statement disclosures. |
| |
7 > | Recent Regulatory Changes |
| |
| On July 23, 2014, the SEC voted to amend Rule 2a-7, which governs money market funds. The majority of these amendments, except for certain disclosure enhancements, will not take effect until October 2016. The most significant change is a requirement that institutional prime and institutional municipal money market funds move to a floating net asset value. Government, treasury, retail prime and retail municipal money market funds will continue to use the amortized cost method of valuation and penny rounding in an effort to maintain a stable share price. On March 30, 2015, the Government Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund announced that they currently have no intention to rely on the ability to impose redemption gates and liquidity fees, which beginning October 14, 2016 will be elective provisions for government money market funds under the SEC’s money market fund reforms. The funds’ management will continue to evaluate the impact of the regulatory changes on the funds. |
