2 OPPENHEIMER GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND |
Fund Performance Discussion
Throughout the reporting period, the Fund continued to offer very strong liquidity and a stable $1.00 net asset value (NAV). At its June meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) voted to lift the Federal Funds Rate, to a range of 1.75% to 2.00%, completing its seventh hike in this cycle. The Fund continued to benefit from these rate hikes, with ongoing reinvestment at higher rates. With the added expectation for further hikes this year, we believe the Fund’s yield forecast remains optimistic.
MARKET OVERVIEW
In November of 2017, it was announced that Jerome Powell would become the 16th Chair of the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”). Many market participants believe his appointment by President Trump will allow for a continuation of policy – a slow and steady rise in the Fed Funds Rate. Mr. Powell has served on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors since 2012 and during this tenure has voted in harmony with the FOMC statements under both Janet Yellen and Ben Bernanke.
Current broader market and FOMC consensus is for two more hikes in 2018. We estimate the most likely scenario includes a hike at each of the September and December meetings. Should the markets remain stable and steady, many on the street are forecasting a total of four hikes in 2018. The more conservative consensus view puts the Fed Funds Rate in the 2.25% to 2.50% range at year end. Coupled with these hikes, the Fed continues to shrink its balance sheet
down from $4.5 trillion, a move it started in October 2017. While the Fed has not indicated a
balance sheet level it intends to hit, it has denoted the holdings will not return to pre-recession levels (less than $1 trillion). While the tapering to date has had minimal impact on the market, upcoming roll offs are higher in the third quarter of 2018 at $120 billion and then another $150 billion in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Another area of continued interest is in Treasury bill supply. Once the debt ceiling issue was resolved in the first part of the year, the Treasury restocked its cash balances in the first quarter of 2018 with record Treasury bill issuance. Due in part to the large bill issuance and talk around repatriation of overseas cash, the market witnessed a large spread difference in the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate and Overnight Index Swap rate in the month of April.1 The noise brought back memories of previous spikes, notably the 2008 financial crisis and the European debt crisis. However, this time around credit concerns were not the driving force.
|
3 OPPENHEIMER GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND |
Currently, the Treasury’s quarterly refunding announcement indicates we should see an increase in net bill supply between mid-October and mid-November. As noted here before, the Treasury will also introduce a 2-month Treasury bill. The new 2-month bill is expected to have its first auction on October 15. This increase in supply should be favorable to rates, but we do not believe we will witness the same spike in 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate and Overnight Index Swap rate that we saw in April. Although the impacts are expected to be less beneficial to investors this time around, we continue to welcome higher rates and look forward to passing those on to our investors.
FUND REVIEW
The Fund’s weighted average maturity throughout the reporting period remained in a range of 35-45 days. Supply continues to be available, notably in Federal Home Loan Bank paper. We are heavily weighted in government
repurchase agreements and floating rate securities, and we occasionally add some long dated fixed paper to the portfolio. We believe the Fund is well positioned should the Fed continue its upward trajectory on the Fed Funds Rate.
STRATEGY & OUTLOOK
Our strategy continues to incorporate select incremental investing as we seek to provide shareholders stable and steady value. We intend to remain active in the auction market, with most of that weight going to fixed-rate instruments with durations of three months or less. When pricing allows, we will continue to layer in one- and three-month floating rate securities. Our outlook is for continued rate hikes in 2018, and our investment strategy is in line with Fed’s dot plot for more hikes this year. We believe the Fund is well-positioned to take advantage of these higher rates as long as the Fed continues on a path of slow and steady hikes.
1. The London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR) is the average interest rate estimated by leading banks in London that they would be charged if borrowing from other banks. It is a primary benchmark for short- term interest rates around the world. The Overnight Index Swap rate is the difference between the overnight lending rates set by central banks and the three-month LIBOR. The Overnight Index Swap rate tracks the relationship between an expected three-month Fed Funds Rate and three-month LIBOR.

Compounded yields assume reinvestment of dividends. The seven-day yield without compounding is an annualized average daily yield of the Fund for the most recent seven days. The compounded seven-day average yield for 365 days is offered as a comparison to a savings account’s compounded interest rate. Unlike an investment in the Fund, the FDIC generally insures deposits in savings accounts.
Performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. Yields include dividends in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.800. CALL OPP (225.5677). The yields take into account voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which yields would have been lower. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The Fund’s performance shown does not reflect the deduction of income taxes on an individual’s investment. Taxes may reduce your actual investment returns on income paid by the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will maintain a positive yield.

Fund Expenses
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and/or contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended July 31, 2018.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During 6 Months Ended July 31, 2018” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or contingent deferred sales charges (loads). Therefore, the “hypothetical” section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated funds, based on the 6-month period ended July 31, 2018 are as follows:
| | | | |
Class | | Expense Ratios | |
Class A | | | 0.59 | % |
Class Y | | | 0.59 | |
The expense ratios reflect voluntary and/or contractual waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager and Transfer Agent. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

19 OPPENHEIMER GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS July 31, 2018
1. Organization
Oppenheimer Government Money Market Fund (the “Fund”) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”), as amended, as a diversified open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek income consistent with stability of principal. The Fund’s investment adviser is OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Manager”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Manager has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI.
The Fund offers Class A and Class Y shares. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share without any initial sales charge. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors without a front-end sales charge, however, the intermediaries may impose charges on their accountholders who beneficially own Class Y shares. Both classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed in the Fund’s preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Security Valuation. All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 3.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. GAAP, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually but may be paid at other times to maintain the net asset value per share at $1.00.
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if any, and capital gains taxes on foreign investments, if any, have been provided for in accordance with the
|
20 OPPENHEIMER GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND |
2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Fund’s understanding of the applicable tax rules and regulations. Interest income, if any, is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdraft at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 0.35%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former Trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remains open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends. The Fund has analyzed its tax positions for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2018, including open tax years, and does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Fund’s financial statements.
The tax components of capital shown in the following table represent distribution requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses the Fund may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years for federal income tax purposes.
| | | | | | | | |
Undistributed Net Investment Income | | Undistributed Long-Term Gain | | | Accumulated Loss Carryforward1,2,3 | |
$629,172 | | | $— | | | | $2,231 | |
1. At period end, the Fund had $2,231 of net capital loss carryforward available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, and thereby reduce future taxable gain distributions.
2. During the reporting period, the Fund did not utilize any capital loss carryforwards.
|
21 OPPENHEIMER GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued
2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
3. During the previous reporting period, the Fund did not utilize any capital loss carryforwards.
Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax requirements, which may differ from the character of net investment income or net realized gains presented in those financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
Accordingly, the following amounts have been reclassified for the reporting period. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.
| | | | |
Reduction to Accumulated Net Investment Loss | | Reduction to Accumulated Net Realized Gain on Investments | |
$20,455 | | | $20,455 | |
The tax character of distributions paid during the reporting periods:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

Distributions paid from: | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | | | | | 15,250,432 | | | $ | 1,975,735 | |
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
New Accounting Pronouncement. In March 2017, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), ASU 2017-08. This provides guidance related to the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Manager is evaluating the impacts of these changes on the financial statements.
3. Securities Valuation
The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time, on each day the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”) is open for trading, except in the case of a scheduled early closing of the Exchange, in which case the Fund will calculate net asset value of the shares as of the scheduled early closing time of the Exchange.
|
22 OPPENHEIMER GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND |
3. Securities Valuation (Continued)
The Fund’s Board has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Fund’s securities and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Manager. The Manager has established a Valuation Committee which is responsible for determining a fair valuation for any security for which market quotations are not readily available. The Valuation Committee’s fair valuation determinations are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at least quarterly or more frequently, if necessary.
Valuation Methods and Inputs
Securities are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate market value, the fair value of the portfolio securities will be determined under procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or when a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security, are fair valued either (i) by a standardized fair valuation methodology applicable to the security type or the significant event as previously approved by the Valuation Committee and the Fund’s Board or (ii) as determined in good faith by the Manager’s Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee considers all relevant facts that are reasonably available, through either public information or information available to the Manager, when determining the fair value of a security. Those standardized fair valuation methodologies include, but are not limited to, valuing securities at the last sale price or initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be further adjusted for any discounts related to security-specific resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities nor can it be assured that the Fund can obtain the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the security.
Classifications
Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Various data inputs may be used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end.
These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
1) Level 1-unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
2) Level 2-inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)

3. Securities Valuation (Continued)
3) Level 3-significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
The Fund classifies each of its investments in investment companies which are publicly offered as Level 1. Investment companies that are not publicly offered, if any, are measured using net asset value and are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

4. Investments and Risks
Investments in Affiliated Funds. The Fund is permitted to invest in other mutual funds advised by the Manager (“Affiliated Funds”). Affiliated Funds are open-end management investment companies registered under the 1940 Act, as amended. The Manager is the investment adviser of, and the Sub-Adviser provides investment and related advisory services to, the Affiliated Funds. When applicable, the Fund’s investments in Affiliated Funds are included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of Affiliated Funds are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of the Affiliated Funds’ expenses, including their management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in the Affiliated Funds.
Each of the Affiliated Funds in which the Fund invests has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of the Fund’s investments and therefore the value of the Fund’s shares. To the extent that the Fund invests more of its assets in one Affiliated Fund than in another, the Fund will have greater exposure to the risks of that Affiliated Fund.
Investments in Money Market Instruments. The Fund is permitted to invest its free cash balances in money market instruments to provide liquidity or for defensive purposes. The

4. Investments and Risks (Continued)
Fund may invest in money market instruments by investing in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Government Money Market Fund (“IGMMF”), which is an Affiliated Fund. IGMMF is regulated as a money market fund under the 1940 Act, as amended. The Fund may also invest in money market instruments directly or in other affiliated or unaffiliated money market funds.
5. Market Risk Factors
The Fund’s investments in securities and/or financial derivatives may expose the Fund to various market risk factors:
Commodity Risk. Commodity risk relates to the change in value of commodities or commodity indexes as they relate to increases or decreases in the commodities market. Commodities are physical assets that have tangible properties. Examples of these types of assets are crude oil, heating oil, metals, livestock, and agricultural products.
Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer of debt to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield debt securities are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality securities.
Equity Risk. Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.
Volatility Risk. Volatility risk refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.
6. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of $0.10 par value shares of beneficial interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

7. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
| | | | | | | | |
Fee Schedule | | | | | |
Up to $500 million | | | 0.450 | % | | | | |
Next to $500 million | | | 0.425 | | | | | |
Next to $500 million | | | 0.400 | | | | | |
Next $1.5 billion | | | 0.375 | | | | | |
Over $3.0 billion | | | 0.350 | | | | | |
The Fund’s effective management fee for the reporting period was 0.42% of average annual net assets before any applicable waivers.
Sub-Adviser Fees. The Manager has retained the Sub-Adviser to provide the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Manager pays the Sub-Adviser an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the investment management fee collected by the Manager from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any investment management fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Adviser is paid by the Manager, not by the Fund.
Transfer Agent Fees. OFI Global (the “Transfer Agent”) serves as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays the Transfer Agent a fee based on annual net assets, which shall be calculated after any applicable fee waivers. Fees incurred and average net assets for each class with respect to these services are detailed in the Statement of Operations and Financial Highlights, respectively.
Sub-Transfer Agent Fees. The Transfer Agent has retained Shareholder Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OFI (the “Sub-Transfer Agent”), to provide the day-to-day transfer
|

7. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued)
agent and shareholder servicing of the Fund. Under the Sub-Transfer Agency Agreement, the Transfer Agent pays the Sub-Transfer Agent an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the transfer agent fee collected by the Transfer Agent from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any applicable fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Transfer Agent is paid by the Transfer Agent, not by the Fund.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan (the “Plan”) for the Fund’s Independent Trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees paid to each Trustee during their period of service. The Plan was frozen with respect to adding new participants effective December 31, 2006 (the “Freeze Date”) and existing Plan Participants as of the Freeze Date will continue to receive accrued benefits under the Plan. Active Independent Trustees as of the Freeze Date have each elected a distribution method with respect to their benefits under the Plan.
During the reporting period, the Fund’s projected benefit obligations, payments to retired Trustees and accumulated liability were as follows:
| | | | |
Projected Benefit Obligations Increased | | $ | — | |
Payments Made to Retired Trustees | | | 15,558 | |
Accumulated Liability as of July 31, 2018 | | | 134,161 | |
The Fund’s Board of Trustees (“Board”) has adopted a compensation deferral plan for Independent Trustees that enables Trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of Trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Sales Charges. Contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) do not represent an expense of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance. The CDSC retained by the Distributor on the redemption of shares is shown in the following table for the period indicated.

Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily undertaken to waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses to the extent necessary to assist the Fund in attempting to maintain a positive yield. There is no guarantee that the Fund will maintain a positive yield.
There were no fees waived as a result of this during the period.
This fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement may be amended or withdrawn at any time without prior notice to shareholders.
Effective for the period January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017, the Transfer
Agent voluntarily waived and/or reimbursed Fund expenses in an amount equal to 0.015% of
average annual net assets for Classes A and Y.
During the reporting period, the Transfer Agent waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund for transfer agent and shareholder servicing agent fees as follows:
| | | | |
Class A | | $ | 115,922 | |
Class Y | | | 2,691 | |
The Manager is permitted to recapture previously waived and/or reimbursed fees in any given fiscal year if the recapture would not: 1) cause the Fund to generate a negative daily yield, and 2) exceed amounts previously waived and/or reimbursed under this arrangement during the current and prior three fiscal years. The reimbursement to the Manager of such previous waivers and reimbursements would not include any portion of distribution and/or service fees. At period end, the following waived and/or reimbursed amounts are eligible for recapture:
| | | | | | | | |
Expiration Date | | Class A | | | Class Y | |
July 31, 2019 | | $ | 3,543,703 | | | $ | 160,674 | |

July 31, 2021 | | | 115,922 | | | | 2,691 | |
The Manager has not recaptured any previously waived and/or reimbursed amounts during the reporting period.
The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IGMMF. During the reporting period, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $49,190 for IGMMF management fees. This fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement may not be amended or withdrawn for one year from the date of the Fund’s prospectus, unless approved by the Board.

8. Repurchase Agreements
In a repurchase transaction, a Fund buys a security and simultaneously sells it back to an approved institution for delivery on an agreed-upon future date. The resale price exceeds the purchase price by an amount that reflects an agreed-upon interest rate effective for the period during which the repurchase agreement is in effect. Approved institutions include U.S. commercial banks, U.S. branches of foreign banks or broker-dealers that have been designated as primary dealers in government securities. They must meet credit requirements set by the investment adviser from time to time. Repurchase agreements must be fully collateralized. However, if the seller fails to pay the repurchase price on the delivery date, a Fund may incur costs in disposing of the collateral and may experience losses if there is any delay in its ability to do so. If the default on the part of the seller is due to its bankruptcy, a Fund’s ability to liquidate the collateral may be delayed or limited.
The following is a summary by counterparty of the market value of Borrowings and Other Financing Transactions and collateral (received) as of period end:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees
Oppenheimer Government Money Market Fund:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Oppenheimer Government Money Market Fund (the “Fund”), including the statement of investments, as of July 31, 2018, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two year period then ended, and the related notes (collectively, the “financial statements”) and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five year period then ended. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of July 31, 2018, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 Fund 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 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 and financial highlights 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 and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. Such procedures also included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2018, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and the transfer agent, or by other appropriate auditing procedures. 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 and financial highlights. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
KPMGLLP
We have not been able to determine the specific year that we began serving as the auditor of one or more Oppenheimer Funds investment companies, however we are aware that we have served as the auditor of one or more Oppenheimer Funds investment companies since at least 1969.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION
In early 2018, if applicable, shareholders of record received information regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 2017.
None of the dividends paid by the Fund during the reporting period are eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction.
Dividends, if any, paid by the Fund during the reporting period which are not designated as capital gain distributions, may be eligible for lower individual income tax rates to the extent that the Fund has received qualified dividend income as stipulated by recent tax legislation. In early 2018, shareholders of record received information regarding the percentage of distributions that are eligible for lower individual income tax rates. The amount will be the maximum amount allowed.
Recent tax legislation allows a regulated investment company to designate distributions not designated as capital gain distributions, as either interest related dividends or short-term capital gain dividends, both of which are exempt from the U.S. withholding tax applicable to non U.S. taxpayers. For the reporting period, the maximum amount allowable but not less than $15,231,690 of the ordinary distributions to be paid by the Fund qualifies as an interest related dividend.
The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

Householding—Delivery of Shareholder Documents
This is to inform you about OppenheimerFunds’ “householding” policy. If more than one member of your household maintains an account in a particular fund, OppenheimerFunds will mail only one copy of the fund’s prospectus (or, if available, the fund’s summary prospectus), annual and semiannual report and privacy policy. The consolidation of these mailings, called householding, benefits your fund through reduced mailing expense, and benefits you by reducing the volume of mail you receive from OppenheimerFunds. Householding does not affect the delivery of your account statements.
Please note that we will continue to household these mailings for as long as you remain an OppenheimerFunds shareholder, unless you request otherwise. If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these materials, please call us at 1.800. CALL-OPP (225-5677). You may also notify us in writing or via email. We will begin sending you individual copies of the prospectus (or, if available, the summary prospectus), reports and privacy policy within 30 days of receiving your request to stop householding.

Internet Security and Encryption
In general, the email services provided by our website are encrypted and provide a secure and private means of communication with us. To protect your own privacy, confidential and/ or personal information should only be communicated via email when you are advised that you are using a secure website.
As a security measure, we do not include personal or account information in non-secure emails, and we advise you not to send such information to us in non-secure emails. Instead, you may take advantage of the secure features of our website to encrypt your email correspondence. To do this, you will need to use a browser that supports Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.

SSL is used to establish a secure connection between your PC and OppenheimerFunds’ server. It transmits information in an encrypted and scrambled format. |
● | | Encryption is achieved through an electronic scrambling technology that uses a “key” to code and then decode the data. Encryption acts like the cable converter box you may have on your television set. It scrambles data with a secret code so that no one can make sense of it while it is being transmitted. When the data reaches its destination, the same software unscrambles the data. |
