Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

Vanguard PRIMECAP Fund generally followed the same patchy but positive path as the broader stock market over the six months ended March 31, 2016. However, the fund’s lows were a bit lower than the market’s, and it didn’t quite hit all of the market’s high notes, either.

PRIMECAP recorded a solid return of about 7% over the period, but it trailed its benchmark, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, by nearly 2 percentage points. Still, it finished well ahead of the nearly 3% average return of its multi-capitalization growth peers.

Stocks charted an uneven course en route to a favorable outcome
The broad U.S. stock market returned about 7% for the six months. The period began and ended strongly, with fluctuations in the middle as China’s economic slowdown and falling oil and commodity prices worried investors.

Stocks rallied in March as investors again seemed encouraged by news about monetary policy. The Federal Reserve indicated, after a mid-March meeting, that it would raise interest rates fewer times in 2016 than previously anticipated. And central bankers in Europe and Asia kept up stimulus measures to combat weak growth and low inflation.

International stocks returned about 3% for the period after surging more than 8% in March. Stocks from emerging markets and from developed markets of the Pacific region outperformed European stocks, which were nearly flat.

Bonds produced gains following a subpar start
After posting weak results for the first three months of the period, bonds managed solid gains. The broad U.S. taxable bond market returned 2.44% for the fiscal half year.

With stocks volatile and the Fed proceeding cautiously with rate hikes, bonds proved attractive. The yield of the 10-year U.S. Treasury note closed at 1.77% at the end of March, down from 2.05% six months earlier. (Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.)

Returns for money market funds and savings accounts remained limited by the Fed’s target rate of 0.25%–0.5% —still low despite rising a quarter of a percentage point in December.

International bond markets (as measured by the Barclays Global Aggregate Index ex USD) returned 6.90%. International bonds got a boost as foreign currencies strengthened against the dollar, a turnabout from the trend of recent years. Even without this currency benefit, however, international bond returns were solidly positive.

Technology stocks delivered, while health care struggled
Since its 1984 inception, Vanguard PRIMECAP Fund’s overall performance has been noticeably better than that of its comparative standards, recording an average annual return of about 13% through March 31. Both the broad market and the S&P 500 Index have posted average annual returns of about 11% over that span, while the average annual return of multi-cap growth funds has been about 10%.

Such long-term outperformance, which is rather unusual, is a result of the portfolio manager’s conviction, patience, and skill. PRIMECAP Management Company, the fund’s advisor, has achieved success by constructing and managing a portfolio that is quite different from its benchmark. This approach offers potential rewards but also brings the risk of occasional short-term underperformance.

The information technology and health care sectors have dominated the portfolio’s holdings over the years, and the recent six-month period was no exception. Their outcomes, however, were at opposite ends of the spectrum—IT boosted the fund’s return the most, and health care hurt it the most.

IT holdings accounted for more than 35% of the PRIMECAP Fund’s portfolio on average and returned about 16%, handily outpacing those of the benchmark. Software, internet, semiconductor, and hardware companies contributed most to results. PRIMECAP Management provides

valuable research and insight into the industry, which is defined by innovation and marked by fierce competition as corporations move toward cloud computing and consumers seek the latest gadgets.

The fund’s allocation to health care stocks approached an average of nearly 29% over the period, about double that of the benchmark. The large exposure was a disadvantage. The sector returned about –3% for the fund, compared with more

Vanguard’s growth translates into lower costs for you

Research indicates that lower-cost investments have tended to outperform higher-cost ones.

So it’s little wonder that funds with lower expense ratios—including those at Vanguard—have

dominated the industry’s cash inflows in recent years.

Vanguard has long been a low-cost leader, with expenses well below those of many other

investment management companies. That cost difference remains a powerful advantage for

Vanguard clients. Why? Because a lower expense ratio allows a fund to pass along a greater

share of its returns to its investors.

What’s more, as you can see in the chart below, we’ve been able to lower our costs continually

as our assets under management have grown. Our steady growth has not been an explicit

business objective. Rather, we focus on putting our clients’ interests first at all times, and

giving them the best chance for investment success. But economies of scale—the cost

efficiencies that come with our growth—have allowed us to keep lowering our fund costs,

even as we invest in our people and technology.

The benefit of economies of scale

than 3% for the benchmark. Most of the weakness came from pharmaceutical and biotechnology stocks, which slid as the possibility of increased government regulation threatened future profits. A slowdown in merger and acquisition activity also didn’t help stock prices, and biotech stocks felt the burden of high valuations.

Industrials was the only other sector to which the PRIMECAP Fund devoted more than 9% of its holdings. Results here were generally solid; airline and air freight and logistics firms were the top contributors as lower fuel prices saved costs.

Consider rebalancing to manage your risk
Let’s say you’ve taken the time to carefully create an appropriate asset allocation for your investment portfolio. Your efforts have produced a diversified mix of stock, bond, and money market funds tailored to your goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance

But what should you do when your portfolio drifts from its original asset allocation as the financial markets rise or fall? Consider rebalancing to bring it back to the proper mix.

Just one year of outsized returns can throw your allocation out of whack. Take 2013 as an example. That year, the broad stock market (as measured by the Russell 3000 Index) returned 33.55% and the broad taxable bond market (as measured by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index) returned –2.02%. A hypothetical portfolio that tracked the broad domestic market indexes and started the year with 60% stocks and 40% bonds would have ended with a more aggressive mix of 67% stocks and 33% bonds.

Rebalancing to bring your portfolio back to its original targets would require you to shift assets away from areas that have been performing well toward those that have been falling behind. That isn’t easy or intuitive. It’s a way to minimize risk rather than maximize returns and to stick with your investment plan through different types of markets. (You can read more about our approach in Best Practices for Portfolio Rebalancing at vanguard.com/ research.)

It’s not necessary to check your portfolio every day or every month, much less rebalance it that frequently. It may be more appropriate to monitor it annually or semiannually and rebalance when your allocation swings 5 percentage points or more from its target.

It’s important, of course, to be aware of the tax implications. You’ll want to consult with your tax advisor, but generally speaking, it may be a good idea to make any asset changes within a tax-advantaged retirement account or to direct new cash flows into the underweighted asset class.

However you go about it, keeping your asset allocation from drifting too far off target can help you stay on track with the investment plan you’ve crafted to meet your financial goals.

As always, thank you for investing with Vanguard.

Sincerely,

F. William McNabb III

Advisor’s Report

For the six months ended March 31, 2016, Vanguard PRIMECAP Fund returned 6.64% for Investor Shares and 6.67% for Admiral Shares, trailing the 8.49% return of its benchmark, the unmanaged Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, while surpassing the 2.63% average return of its multi-capitalization growth fund competitors. Unfavorable stock selection and an overweight position in health care, the worst-performing sector over the period, as well as the fund’s underweight positions in consumer staples, utilities, and telecommunication services, were the primary sources of underperformance relative to the unmanaged S&P 500 Index. These negatives were partially offset by favorable stock selection and an overweight position in information technology, as well as an underweight position in financials, the worst-performing sector in the benchmark.

The investment environment
The six months were characterized by significant volatility in various financial markets worldwide, including the U.S. equity markets. Stocks rallied from the beginning of October through the end of December, then sold off sharply in January and early February before rallying into the end of March. The February stock market trough roughly coincided with the bottom in West Texas Intermediate crude oil, which fell to $26 per barrel before rebounding to end March at $38.

Contrary to the expectations of many investors, Treasury bond yields fell as the Federal Reserve signaled it would raise interest rates more gradually than it had planned going into 2016. Faced with lower net interest margins, financials underperformed the S&P 500 Index by nearly 8%, with some of the largest banks and brokerages faring far worse. Sluggish economic growth and below-target inflation led central banks in Europe and Japan to introduce negative short-term interest rates and ramp up government bond purchases, further pressuring already-low long-term interest rates. Ten-year German and Japanese bonds currently yield within 15 basis points of 0%, an unprecedented situation.

Relative to the economies of other developed countries, the U.S. economy was a bright spot as real gross domestic product (GDP) continued to expand at a modest pace (+2.4% in 2015). Supported by rising incomes, healthy household balance sheets, low inflation (in part because of falling energy prices), and improving access to historically inexpensive credit, U.S. consumer spending appears to be on solid footing. We are concerned, however, by the upcoming presidential election. Candidates on both sides have vilified U.S. corporations and espoused trade policies that could harm global companies, including many of the fund’s holdings.

Outlook for U.S. equities
S&P 500 Index earnings per share are expected to decline 7% in the first calendar quarter of 2016, the worst performance since the third calendar quarter of 2009. Even excluding the troubled energy sector, earnings per share are expected to decline

by 2%. Trading at approximately 16.5 times the next 12 months’ estimated earnings per share, the S&P 500 Index appears fully valued by historical standards. However, with the 10-year Treasury bond yielding 1.8%, well below the S&P 500 Index dividend yield of 2.3%, we continue to believe that stocks represent a more attractive investment than bonds at current prices. We find certain stocks to be attractively valued, notably the fund’s biotechnology holdings, which, after a period of significant underperformance, trade at a discount to the S&P 500 Index price-to-earnings multiple in spite of their far superior long-term growth prospects.

Portfolio update and outlook
Although the fund’s total return exceeded that of the S&P 500 Index during the fourth calendar quarter of 2015 thanks to favorable sector allocations and strong selection in information technology, this was more than offset by relative underper-formance during the first calendar quarter of 2016. Sector allocations (overweighted in health care and underweighted in consumer staples, utilities, and telecom) became a challenge, and several of the fund’s largest pharmaceutical and biotech holdings declined.

After several consecutive years of outperformance, the health care sector lagged the S&P 500 Index over the six months. Biotech stocks (defined as the AMEX Biotechnology Index) were hit especially hard, declining 14%, compared with a 3% increase in the S&P 500 Index health care sector. The decline was

precipitated by price increases of high-profile generic drugs and subsequent broader scrutiny of the biotech and pharmaceutical industry. Novartis (–19%), Eli Lilly (–13%), Biogen (–11%), and Roche (–3%) detracted most. Biotech and pharmaceutical holdings constituted 22% of the fund’s assets at the end of the period, more than double the S&P 500 Index weighting of 9%. In spite of the near-term uncertainty and current political rhetoric over drug pricing, we believe that the industry’s fundamentals remain intact and that demand for health care products will continue to grow, driven by demographic trends and the potential for safer and more effective therapies.

We believe that companies which develop novel therapies that extend lives and represent meaningful advancements will ultimately receive favorable pricing and reimbursement for their products.

The fund also remains overweighted in information technology stocks, which constituted about 36% of assets on average, compared with 21% in the S&P 500 Index. The fund’s largest IT holdings are in software, semiconductor, and internet stocks. S&P 500 Index internet (+21%) and software (+20%) stocks significantly outperformed the sector (+12%) for the six months, with semiconductors (+12%) about the same as the overall sector. The fund’s holdings in these industries performed relatively in line with their underlying S&P 500 industry indexes. Strong relative performance in hardware, thanks to gains in Hewlett Packard Enterprise (+23% for the fund)

and a minimal position in Apple (flat), led the fund’s holdings to outperform the S&P 500 Index IT sector.

Although industry research firm Gartner expects global IT spending to fall 0.5% (+1.6% in constant currency) in 2016, we remain confident in the long-term outlook for the fund’s holdings. Microsoft and Adobe, its largest software holdings, are transforming their products and business models to adapt to the “cloud,” where resources are consumed on demand over the internet. Alphabet and Alibaba, the fund’s largest internet holdings, are growing rapidly as consumers worldwide spend more time and money on internet-based services. Texas Instruments and NVIDIA, two of the fund’s largest semiconductor holdings, stand to benefit from secular trends such as virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and the incorporation of connectivity into previously unconnected objects. Although the fund’s hardware holdings, including Hewlett Packard Enterprise and NetApp, face more challenging transitions to the cloud, they trade at extremely low valuations that more than compensate investors for the associated risks.

Over 6% of the fund’s assets were invested in airline stocks as of March 31. Industry fundamentals remain strong, with robust traffic leading to high load factors and lower fuel costs boosting earnings. Nevertheless, investors remain leery of the industry. We recognize that terrorism presents a significant risk and are especially concerned given the recent terrorist attacks in Paris and Brussels. But we believe that structural changes over the last several years—the most important of which is industry consolidation—have enabled airlines to prosper under normal conditions. Furthermore, the industry benefits from secular trends, as demonstrated by the fact that global passenger traffic growth of 6% far exceeds real global GDP growth. In spite of these positives, several of our airline holdings trade at among the lowest price-to-earnings multiples in the S&P 500 Index.

The fund remains significantly underweighted in energy stocks. We have found few compelling investments in the sector, as we believe current valuations (over 60 times forward earnings per share) assume a significant increase in oil prices from recent levels. We view declining production costs and slower demand from China and other emerging markets as secular, not cyclical, trends. And new technologies such as vehicle electrification may reduce oil demand over the long term.

After rallying strongly during the six months as investors flocked to perceived safe haven investments, telecommunication services, utilities, and consumer staples stocks appear stretched relative to their growth prospects. For example, consumer staples stocks trade for 21 times forward earnings per share, the most expensive sector on a price-to-earnings basis except for the reeling energy sector, in spite of minimal expected revenue growth.

Conclusion
We remain committed to our investment philosophy, which is to invest in attractively priced stocks for the long term. This “bottom-up” approach often results in a portfolio that bears little resemblance to a market index; therefore, our results often deviate substantially from those of the index. Furthermore, our long-term investment horizon results in low portfolio turnover, which creates the possibility for extended periods of underperformance when the stocks in our portfolio fall out of favor. We nonetheless believe that this approach can generate superior results for shareholders over the long term.

PRIMECAP Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard PRIMECAP Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market- or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund’s pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value.

2. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund’s pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (September 30, 2012–2015), and for the period ended March 31, 2016, and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

5. Securities Lending: To earn additional income, the fund lends its securities to qualified institutional borrowers. Security loans are subject to termination by the fund at any time, and are required to be secured at all times by collateral in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled on the next business day. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into securities lending transactions only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master securities lending agreements with its counterparties. The master securities

PRIMECAP Fund

lending agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any loans with that borrower, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund; however, such actions may be subject to legal proceedings. While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the absence of a default the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Net Assets for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

6. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2016, or at any time during the period then ended.

7. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. PRIMECAP Management Company, provides investment advisory services to the fund for a fee calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets. For the six months ended March 31, 2016, the investment advisory fee represented an effective annual rate of 0.20% of the fund’s average net assets.

C. In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Net Assets.

PRIMECAP Fund

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At March 31, 2016, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $3,817,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 1.53% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

D. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of March 31, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them:


	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3
Investments	($000)	($000)	($000)
Common Stocks	41,386,271	2,204,854	—
Temporary Cash Investments	1,713,089	—	—
Total	43,099,360	2,204,854	—

E. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes. These differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes. The fund’s tax-basis capital gains and losses are determined only at the end of each fiscal year.

During the period ended March 31, 2016, the fund realized net foreign currency losses of $129,000, which decreased distributable net income for tax purposes; accordingly, such losses have been reclassified from accumulated net realized gains to undistributed net investment income.

At March 31, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $23,561,692,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $21,742,522,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $22,919,995,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $1,177,473,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

F. During the six months ended March 31, 2016, the fund purchased $1,550,418,000 of investment securities and sold $1,680,146,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.

A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

• Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, 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 given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“

• Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.


Six Months Ended March 31, 2016
	Beginning	Ending	Expenses
	Account Value	Account Value	Paid During
PRIMECAP Fund	9/30/2015	3/31/2016	Period
Based on Actual Fund Return
Investor Shares	$1,000.00	$1,066.43	$1.96
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	1,066.72	1.65
Based on Hypothetical 5% Yearly Return
Investor Shares	$1,000.00	$1,023.10	$1.92
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	1,023.40	1.62

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are 0.38% for Investor Shares and 0.32% for Admiral Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (183/366).

Glossary

30-Day SEC Yield. A fund’s 30-day SEC yield is derived using a formula specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the formula, data related to the fund’s security holdings in the previous 30 days are used to calculate the fund’s hypothetical net income for that period, which is then annualized and divided by the fund’s estimated average net assets over the calculation period. For the purposes of this calculation, a security’s income is based on its current market yield to maturity (for bonds), its actual income (for asset-backed securities), or its projected dividend yield (for stocks). Because the SEC yield represents hypothetical annualized income, it will differ—at times significantly—from the fund’s actual experience. As a result, the fund’s income distributions may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield.

Beta. A measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of a given market index. The index is assigned a beta of 1.00. Compared with a given index, a fund with a beta of 1.20 typically would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the index rose or fell by 10%. For this report, beta is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index. Note that a fund’s beta should be reviewed in conjunction with its R-squared (see definition). The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there is between the fund and the index, and the less reliable beta is as an indicator of volatility.

Dividend Yield. Dividend income earned by stocks, expressed as a percentage of the aggregate market value (or of net asset value, for a fund). The yield is determined by dividing the amount of the annual dividends by the aggregate value (or net asset value) at the end of the period. For a fund, the dividend yield is based solely on stock holdings and does not include any income produced by other investments.

Earnings Growth Rate. The average annual rate of growth in earnings over the past five years for the stocks now in a fund.

Equity Exposure. A measure that reflects a fund’s investments in stocks and stock futures. Any holdings in short-term reserves are excluded.

Expense Ratio. A fund’s total annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. The expense ratio includes management and administrative expenses, but does not include the transaction costs of buying and selling portfolio securities.

Foreign Holdings. The percentage of a fund represented by securities or depositary receipts of companies based outside the United States.

Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.

Median Market Cap. An indicator of the size of companies in which a fund invests; the midpoint of market capitalization (market price x shares outstanding) of a fund’s stocks, weighted by the proportion of the fund’s assets invested in each stock. Stocks representing half of the fund’s assets have market capitalizations above the median, and the rest are below it.

Price/Book Ratio. The share price of a stock divided by its net worth, or book value, per share. For a fund, the weighted average price/book ratio of the stocks it holds.

Price/Earnings Ratio. The ratio of a stock’s current price to its per-share earnings over the past year. For a fund, the weighted average P/E of the stocks it holds. P/E is an indicator of market expectations about corporate prospects; the higher the P/E, the greater the expectations for a company’s future growth.

R-Squared. A measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by the returns from the market in general, as measured by a given index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s returns bore no relationship to the index’s returns, its R-squared would be 0. For this report, R-squared is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index.

Return on Equity. The annual average rate of return generated by a company during the past five years for each dollar of shareholder’s equity (net income divided by shareholder’s equity). For a fund, the weighted average return on equity for the companies whose stocks it holds.

Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.

Turnover Rate. An indication of the fund’s trading activity. Funds with high turnover rates incur higher transaction costs and may be more likely to distribute capital gains (which may be taxable to investors). The turnover rate excludes in-kind transactions, which have minimal impact on costs.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.

A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 198 Vanguard funds.

The following table provides information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. More information about the trustees is in the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained, without charge, by contacting Vanguard at 800-662-7447, or online at vanguard.com.

Investments in Target Retirement Funds are subject to the risks of their underlying funds. The year in the fund name refers to the approximate year (the target date) when an investor in the fund would retire and leave the work force. The fund will gradually shift its emphasis from more aggressive investments to more conservative ones based on its target date. An investment in a Target Retirement Fund is not guaranteed at any time, including on or after the target date.

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

Despite considerable stock market volatility, U.S. stocks notched strong gains—more than double those of international stocks—for the six months ended March 31, 2016. On the fixed income side, international bonds fared best, while U.S. bonds generated solid results.

Returns for the six Vanguard Target Retirement Funds covered in this report—the Target Retirement Income Fund and the funds with retirement dates of 2010 through 2030—ranged from more than 3% to nearly 5%. (The funds with retirement dates of 2035 through 2060 are covered in a separate report.)

Stocks charted an uneven course en route to a solid outcome
The broad U.S. stock market returned about 7% over the six months. The period began and ended strongly, with fluctuations in the middle as China’s economic slowdown and falling oil and commodity prices worried investors.

International stocks returned about 3%.

Returns for money market funds and savings accounts remained limited by the Fed’s target rate of 0.25%–0.5%—still low despite rising a quarter percentage point in December.

International bond markets (as measured by the Barclays Global Aggregate Index ex USD) returned 6.90%. International bonds benefited as foreign currencies strengthened against the dollar, a turn-about from the trend of recent years. Even in local currencies, however, international bond returns were solidly positive, boosted in part by additional stimulus measures in Europe and Asia to combat weak growth and low inflation.

All underlying funds advanced, led by the broad U.S. stock fund
The Vanguard Target Retirement Funds offer investors a broadly diversified portfolio within a single fund that adjusts its underlying asset mix over time. Each fund invests in some of Vanguard’s broadest index funds, providing access to thousands of U.S. and international stocks and bonds.

The asset allocation in these “funds of funds” gradually shifts from stocks to bonds and becomes more conservative as investors approach retirement. (More on this later in this letter.) Once its target date is reached, each fund continues to adjust until it enters an income phase, when the portfolio will convert to the Target Retirement Income Fund. The Income Fund, which represents a static allocation of about 70% bonds and 30% stocks, is designed to help investors generate income and preserve their wealth.

The funds covered in this report are designed for investors already in retirement or within 20 years of retiring. Therefore, they tend to be more conservative than their counterparts with later target dates.

For the half year, the 2030 Fund—which held about three-quarters of its assets in stocks and the rest in bonds—performed best, with a 4.84% return. The Income Fund, with the most conservative asset mix, returned 3.53%. The results of the four other funds fell in between.

Among the funds’ underlying investments, Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund stood out most, with a 7.18% return. Its international counterpart, Vanguard Total International Stock Index Fund, returned 2.50%. Stocks from emerging markets and from developed markets of the Pacific region outperformed European stocks, which were nearly flat.


Expense Ratios
Your Fund Compared With Its Peer Group
	Acquired Fund Fees	Peer Group

The fund expense figures shown—drawn from the prospectus dated January 28, 2016—represent an estimate of the weighted average of the expense ratios and any transaction fees charged by the underlying mutual funds (the ”acquired” funds) in which the Target Retirement Funds invest. The Target Retirement Funds do not charge any expenses or fees of their own. For the six months ended March 31, 2016, the annualized acquired fund fees and expenses were 0.14% for the Income Fund, 0.14% for the 2010 Fund, 0.15% for the 2015 Fund, 0.15% for the 2020 Fund, 0.15% for the 2025 Fund, and 0.16% for the 2030 Fund. Peer-group expense ratios are derived from data provided by Lipper, a Thomson Reuters Company, and capture information through year-end 2015.

The upside of rising rates for target-date investors

Target-date fund investors may wonder about the potential effect of rising interest rates on

bond prices—especially as the funds shift their allocations toward more bonds.

Initially, as interest rates rise, the market value of bonds in a portfolio will decline, bringing

their yields closer to those of newer issues. However, the opportunity to reinvest cash flow

into higher-yielding bonds over time can benefit investors who can wait.

Consider a hypothetical example of an intermediate-term investment-grade bond fund with

an initial yield of 2.25%. Assume rates rise by a quarter percentage point every January and

July from 2016 through 2019, ending at 4.25%. The cumulative total return would be negative

through the first quarter of 2018. But by mid-2023, the fund’s total return would be higher than

if rates hadn’t changed. It’s important to note that the pace and magnitude of rate increases

would affect the time until breakeven.

And keep in mind that bond prices tend to be less volatile than those of stocks. That’s why

target-date funds increase their bond holdings as the retirement date approaches.

The silver lining of higher yields

Cumulative rate of return

Notes: This hypothetical example shows the impact for a generic intermediate-term bond fund not included in the Target Retirement Funds.

It illustrates the fund’s performance if the Federal Reserve raised interest rates by a quarter percentage point every January and July from

2016 through 2019. Intermediate-term rates are assumed to rise by the same amount. The bond fund has a duration of 5.5 years. (Duration

is a measure of the sensitivity of bond—and bond mutual fund—prices to interest rate movements.)

Source: Vanguard.

On the fixed income side, Vanguard Total International Bond Index Fund was the stronger performer, returning 3.88% (after hedging against currency fluctuations). And the funds’ U.S. bond holdings, represented by Vanguard Total Bond Market II Index Fund, returned 2.31%. (For a hypothetical example of how a Fed rate hike might affect a generic bond fund, see the box on page 5.)

Vanguard Short-Term Inflation-Protected Securities Index Fund—which is held by the four most conservative Target Retirement Funds (the Income, 2010, 2015, and 2020 Funds)—returned 1.40%. With U.S. inflation relatively subdued, there wasn’t great demand for inflation protection.

Target-date funds do the rebalancing for you
Investing in a balanced, diversified portfolio is one of the best ways to prepare for retirement. However, for some investors, maintaining that carefully designed portfolio through disciplined rebalancing is easier said than done.

Rebalancing is about controlling risk by keeping your portfolio in line with your target asset allocation. But it can feel counterintuitive to shift assets away from areas that have been performing well toward those that have fallen behind.

Vanguard Target Retirement Funds address this challenge by offering investors broadly diversified all-in-one portfolios that automatically rebalance over time. But, as I mentioned, instead of returning the portfolios to their original asset allocations, Target Retirement Funds gradually shift to a more conservative mix of stocks and bonds as you approach retirement.

This continuing shift is called the glide path. The approach helps ensure that you have more stocks in your portfolio when you are younger—and can presumably take on more risk—and more bonds and short-term reserves as you get closer to or enter retirement. The stock portion of the fund’s asset mix will never fully go away, but it will be reduced significantly after you’ve retired.

Your fund’s automatic rebalancing feature can have a significant effect on the risks and returns of your portfolio. Without rebalancing, market fluctuations will alter your asset mix, potentially leaving you with a riskier portfolio than you intended. (You can read more in

As always, thank you for investing with Vanguard.

Sincerely,

Target Retirement Income Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Target Retirement Income Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund follows a balanced investment strategy by investing in selected Vanguard funds to achieve its targeted allocation of assets to U.S. and international stocks, and U.S. and international bonds. Financial statements and other information about each underlying fund are available on vanguard.com.

1. Security Valuation: Investments are valued at the net asset value of each underlying Vanguard fund determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date.

2. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (September 30, 2012–2015), and for the period ended March 31, 2016, and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

3. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

4. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and borne by the funds in which the fund invests (see Note B). Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2016, or at any time during the period then ended.

5. Other: Income and capital gain distributions received are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

B. In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. The FSA provides that expenses otherwise allocable to Vanguard funds-of-funds may be reduced or eliminated to the extent of savings realized by the underlying Vanguard funds by virtue of being part of a fund-of-funds. Accordingly, all expenses for services provided by Vanguard to the fund and all other expenses incurred by the fund during the period ended March 31, 2016, were borne by the underlying Vanguard funds in which the fund invests. The fund’s trustees and officers are also trustees and officers, respectively, of the underlying Vanguard funds, as well as directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

Target Retirement Income Fund

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

At March 31, 2016, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

D. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes. These differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes. The fund’s tax-basis capital gains and losses are determined only at the end of each fiscal year.

At March 31, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $9,188,305,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,171,393,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $1,228,728,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $57,335,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

A typical fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. The Target Retirement Funds have no direct expenses, but each fund bears its proportionate share of the costs for the underlying funds in which it invests. These indirect expenses make up the acquired fund fees and expenses, also expressed as a percentage of average net assets.

The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period. The costs were calculated using the acquired fund fees and expenses for each Target Retirement Fund.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

• Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

• Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Target Retirement 2030 Fund	$1,000.00	$1,024.20	$0.81

The calculations are based on the acquired fund fees and expenses for the most recent six-month period. The funds’ annualized expense figures for that period are (in order as listed from top to bottom above) 0.14%, 0.14%, 0.15%, 0.15%, 0.15%, and 0.16%. The dollar amounts shown as ”Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense figures for the underlying funds multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (183/366).

Trustees Approve Advisory Arrangements

The board of trustees of Vanguard Target Retirement Funds has renewed each fund’s investment advisory arrangement with The Vanguard Group, Inc. (Vanguard), through its Equity Index Group. The board determined that continuing each fund’s internalized management structure was in the best interests of the funds and their shareholders.

The board based its decision upon an evaluation of the advisor’s investment staff, portfolio management process, and performance. The trustees considered the factors discussed below, among others. However, no single factor determined whether the board approved the arrangements. Rather, it was the totality of the circumstances that drove the board’s decision.

Nature, extent, and quality of services
The board reviewed the quality of the funds’ investment management services over both the short and long term and took into account the organizational depth and stability of the advisor. The board considered that Vanguard has been managing investments for more than three decades. The Equity Index Group adheres to a sound, disciplined investment management process; the team has considerable experience, stability, and depth.

The board concluded that Vanguard’s experience, stability, depth, and performance, among other factors, warranted continuation of the advisory arrangements.

Investment performance
The board considered the performance of the funds, including any periods of outperformance or underperformance relative to a benchmark index and peer group. The board concluded that the performance was such that the advisory arrangements should continue. Information about each fund’s most recent performance can be found in the Performance Summary pages of this report.

Cost
The board concluded that the funds’ acquired fund fees and expenses were well below the average expense ratios charged by funds in their respective peer groups. The funds do not incur advisory expenses directly; however, the board noted that each of the underlying funds in which the funds invest has advisory expenses well below the relevant peer-group average. Information about the funds’ acquired fund fees and expenses appears in the About Your Fund’s Expenses section of this report as well as in the Financial Statements sections.

The board does not conduct a profitability analysis of Vanguard because of Vanguard’s unique “at-cost” structure. Unlike most other mutual fund management companies, Vanguard is owned by the funds it oversees, and produces “profits” only in the form of reduced expenses for fund shareholders.

The benefit of economies of scale
The board concluded that Vanguard’s at-cost arrangements with the Target Retirement Funds and their underlying funds ensures that the funds will realize economies of scale as the assets of the underlying funds grow, with the cost to shareholders declining as assets increase.

The board will consider whether to renew the advisory arrangements again after a one-year period.

Glossary

Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses. Funds that invest in other Vanguard funds incur no direct expenses, but they do bear proportionate shares of the operating, administrative, and advisory expenses of the underlying funds, and they must pay any fees charged by those funds. The figure for acquired fund fees and expenses represents a weighted average of these underlying costs. Acquired is a term that the Securities and Exchange Commission applies to any mutual fund whose shares are owned by another fund.

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

Despite considerable stock market volatility, U.S. stocks notched strong gains—more than double that of international stocks—for the six months ended March 31, 2016. On the fixed income side, international bonds fared best. U.S. bonds, meanwhile, generated solid results.

Each of the six Vanguard Target Retirement Funds covered in this report—those with retirement dates of 2035 through 2060—returned about 5% for the fiscal period. (The Target Retirement Income Fund and the funds with retirement dates of 2010 through 2030 are covered in a separate report.)

International stocks returned about 3% for the period.

Bonds produced gains following a subpar start
After posting weak results for the first three months of the period, bonds managed solid gains in the final three. The broad U.S. taxable bond market returned 2.44% for the fiscal half year.

With stocks volatile and the Fed proceeding cautiously with rate hikes, bonds proved attractive to investors. The yield of the 10-year U.S. Treasury note closed at 1.77% at the end of March, down from 2.05% six months earlier. (Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.)

Returns for money market funds and savings accounts remained limited by the Fed’s target rate of 0.25%–0.5%, despite the central bank’s 0.25% rate hike in December.

International bond markets (as measured by the Barclays Global Aggregate Index ex USD) returned 6.90%. International bonds benefited as foreign currencies strengthened against the dollar, a turnabout from the trend of recent years. Even in local currencies, however, international bond returns were solidly positive, boosted in part by additional stimulus measures taken in Europe and Asia to combat weak growth and low inflation.

Led by the broad U.S. stock fund, all four underlying funds advanced
Vanguard Target Retirement Funds offer investors a broadly diversified portfolio within a single fund that adjusts its underlying asset mix over time. Each fund invests in some of the broadest Vanguard index funds, providing investors access to thousands of U.S. and international stocks and bonds.

The asset allocation in these “funds of funds” gradually shifts from stocks to bonds and becomes more conservative as investors approach retirement. (I’ll discuss this shift in asset allocation later in this letter). Once its target date is reached, each fund continues to adjust until it enters an income phase, when the portfolio will convert to the Target Retirement Income

Fund. The Income Fund, which represents a static allocation of about 70% bonds and 30% stocks, is mostly focused on helping investors generate income and preserve their wealth.

The funds covered in this report are designed for investors who plan to retire sometime after 2030. Because these funds aim to invest for long-term growth, they have a larger allocation to stocks than their more conservative counterparts with earlier target dates.

Among the funds’ four underlying investments, Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund stood out most, with a 7.18% return. Its international counterpart, Vanguard Total International Stock Index Fund, returned 2.50%. Stocks from

The fund expense figures shown—drawn from the prospectus dated January 28, 2016—represent an estimate of the weighted average of the expense ratios and any transaction fees charged by the underlying mutual funds (the ”acquired” funds) in which the Target Retirement Funds invest. The Target Retirement Funds do not charge any expenses or fees of their own. For the six months ended March 31, 2016, the annualized acquired fund fees and expenses were 0.16% for the 2035 Fund, 0.17% for the 2040 Fund, 0.17% for the 2045 Fund, 0.17% for the 2050 Fund, 0.17% for the 2055 Fund, and 0.17% for the 2060 Fund. Peer-group expense ratios are derived from data provided by Lipper, a Thomson Reuters Company, and capture information through year-end 2015.
