Thank you for your investment in Wasatch Funds. We hope this report will be helpful to you in exploring and understanding each of the funds within the Wasatch family. We have included the latest quarterly manager’s comments in order to provide you with the most current thoughts from each of our lead portfolio managers. Quarterly manager commentaries can always be found on our website www.WasatchFunds.com approximately three weeks after the end of each calendar quarter.
Who we are...
We are a research driven, employee owned firm managing no-load mutual funds. Located at the foot of the Wasatch Mountains in Salt Lake City, Utah, we are far away from Wall Street and its herd mentality. Our portfolio managers are independent, yet collaborative, thinkers who bring substantial experience to their funds.
Where we came from...
Founded in 1975, by Dr. Sam Stewart, we initially focused on growth investing in small companies. Using a fundamental, bottom up research method we looked for market inefficiencies relative to the long term growth potential of lesser known companies. Investing in small, harder to find companies required a disciplined, rigorous and independent research process. Over time, Wasatch added more research professionals and began applying the same successful process to investing in micro, value, international, and larger companies.
What we believe...
We believe in common sense investing, involving deep due diligence, cross-team collaboration, and commitment to discipline, as we follow our central investment philosophy of:
“Earnings Growth Drives Stock Prices Over the Long Term”
What we do...
We utilize a proven and repeatable process to uncover interesting companies. We look deeper to find and understand each company. We leverage portfolio managers from across the firm to fully vet each investment idea. We stay true to our investment style. We close funds before they get too large in order to protect shareholders. We seek to deliver above-average returns over the long-term, and we strive in every way to earn the trust of our shareholders.
What makes Wasatch different?
Deeper – We use an intensely thorough process to fully understand each investment.
Disciplined – We stick to our process and investment style regardless of market fads.
WASATCH
Collaborative – We work across portfolios to leverage valuable experience and research insights. FUNDS
Independent – We do our own research to avoid getting caught in the herd. Deeper, Disciplined InvestingTM

LETTERTO SHAREHOLDERS | ||
Samuel S. Stewart, Jr. PhD, CFA President of | DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS:
THE ECONOMY
An economic recovery feels more at hand each day as economic indicators show increasingly positive traction. However, as I’ve mentioned before, large structural issues still exist for our economy to overcome in the months and years ahead, including:
Ÿ Weak financial markets — credit markets have yet to return to where there is enough credit being made available to support a growing economy. Ÿ High unemployment — job gains will likely be slow as many firms are reticent to hire with the 2008–2009 experience still fresh in their memory. This may benefit corporate profits over the near-term, but it will slow the economy’s return to growth. Ÿ Expanding role of government — increased government involvement and regulation will have a dampening effect on growth. Not to imply that some of the government actions aren’t appropriate, but there will be economic costs as well. |
In talking with colleagues, I have at times compared re-starting the economy to lighting a barbecue. Over the past year the government used an unprecedented amount of lighter fluid in an attempt to set the wet coals afire. We saw some nice flames as a result, but it wasn’t clear whether the briquettes had actually been lit. I think we can now see that some of the coals are beginning to glow. They still need a lot of nursing (e.g., low interest rates and continued spending) before we will be ready to cook the steak though. Unfortunately, the government has only very blunt instruments with which to influence the recovery, and given the extreme level of intervention that has been required, we are almost certain to experience unintended consequences that will also have to be overcome.
Beyond the United States we are seeing broad signs of global economic improvement as well, yet there are significant challenges being faced. Fundamental financial problems came to a head in Greece and Portugal last month, and in Dubai earlier in the quarter. Meanwhile, uncertainty, or lack of transparency, in China seems to be creating growing unease about a country that has become increasingly important to the global economy. Nevertheless, I remain cautiously optimistic that the global economy has turned the corner.
THE MARKET
Throughout the first quarter, the market simply wanted to go up. Bad economic news would lead to a temporary pause, while good news would drive the market forward. Investors focused on the good news of the day, and at least temporarily ignored the shadow cast by the large structural issues that remain. As a result, the market actually saw its strongest first quarter since 1999.
I expect the soon-to-be reported first quarter corporate profits to be very strong — due to easy year-over-year comparisons, cost reductions that have been implemented by most companies, and the beginning of sales improvements. At current stock valuations I think positive quarterly reports are already priced into the market. The most interesting piece of these reports, and what the market is most likely to react to (beyond negative surprises), will be any forward guidance offered — how quickly companies see the recovery truly reaching their businesses.
Last year there was a lot of discussion about whether we might see a V-shaped or U-shaped economic recovery. The more common expectation was a U-shaped recovery. Instead, the early part of the recovery has appeared V-shaped, as has the stock market rebound. The caution in my voice is that the market, with its aggressive advance, seems to be counting on the continuation of a V-shaped recovery. With the significant structural challenges to be overcome I think we are more likely to see what some are now calling a “square-root” recovery: a quick initial rebound followed by an extended period of slow growth.
WASATCH PERFORMANCE
The Wasatch Funds enjoyed nice gains this quarter, although many of the portfolios finished the quarter slightly behind their stated benchmark indices, which is historically consistent with typical Wasatch performance in a strong market (our focus on quality companies often leads to lagging in strong markets, outperforming in down markets, and solid returns over full market cycles). I remain confident in our portfolios for the long-term and have been pleased to see our companies continue to generally deliver at or above our expectations.
I talked a lot last year about our focus on high-quality companies. In a rising market we monitor the valuations of our holdings and look to rotate into better opportunities among other high quality companies as valuations become stretched. Staying focused on quality, regardless of market conditions, is critically important to us because we are investing for long-term success, not betting on the next pop. As you’ve heard me say many times, we do not make market calls or try to time the market. Instead, we pay close attention to the prospects and valuations of individual companies as we search for the best investment opportunities currently available.
We remain somewhat cautious in our portfolio composition, being particularly careful about position size, valuation, and quality. This care seems appropriate given the continuing economic challenges ahead. I think we’re behaving as if we should have learned a lesson from 2008 . . . I’m not sure that the market is currently demonstrating the same prudence.

A SEPARATE NOTEOF CAUTIONON ASSET ALLOCATION
Human psyche causes many investors to look in the rear-view mirror as they pick their investment path forward. Due to this human tendency, financial advertisements are required to remind investors that “past performance is no guarantee of future results.” Unfortunately, investors in aggregate do not heed this warning and end up making notoriously bad timing decisions. For example:
Ÿ | Investors held a record high allocation of their portfolio in Stocks (77%) in March of 2000 — just as the equity markets collapsed.* |
Ÿ | Investors held a record high allocation of Cash (45%) in March of 2009 — when the equity markets began their bull run. |
Over the past year there have been tremendous flows into bonds and bond funds. In July of 2009 investors held a record high allocation of Bonds at 25%. As of January 2010 the bond allocation still remained near historical highs at 24%, and inflows to bond funds continued through the first quarter. Investors typically think of bond funds as “safe” investments. The stock market collapse of 2008 no doubt played a significant role in spurring this recent flight to the perceived “safety” of bonds. However, in an environment of historically low interest rates and record levels of bond investment, I think caution is warranted for investors who are over-allocating to bond funds, particularly for those who are doing so as a perceived low-risk investment. Bond funds carry risk — most notably interest rate risk. When interest rates rise again, bond prices will fall, and I would hate for investors to be surprised by negative short-term returns in bond funds.
We believe there is an important long-term allocation role for bonds, which is why Wasatch offers what we believe to be two high quality sub-advised bond funds in our own product line-up, but I think the broad asset allocation shift toward bonds that has taken place over the past year is worthy of a general note of caution to all bond investors.
I’m not suggesting that investors should rush to stocks. I believe investors are typically best served by simply staying true to their long-term investment strategy and giving it the appropriate time to play out. This is the approach we take in our portfolios as well. We appreciate your interest in Wasatch Funds. Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.
Sincerely,
Samuel S. Stewart, Jr.
President of Wasatch Funds

WASATCH CORE GROWTH FUND (WGROX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Core Growth Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by JB Taylor and Paul Lambert.
JB Taylor Portfolio Manager |
Paul Lambert Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Wasatch Core Growth Fund gained 5.16% in the first quarter as the U.S. stock market continued to rebound from its March 2009 low. Equities advanced in response to rising |
investor confidence that a broad economic recovery is underway. The economy continues to face significant challenges, including high unemployment and the prospect of higher taxes. Investors were able to look beyond these concerns, and the market maintained its positive momentum. The S&P 500 Index* rose 5.39%, and the Russell 2000 Index gained 8.85%.
Following such strong returns in 2009, we were pleased to see the Fund start 2010 with additional gains. That said, the Fund gave back some of last year’s outperformance relative to the Russell 2000 Index. Our best barometer for gauging the health of the portfolio — earnings growth** — continued to improve throughout the quarter. We think the underperformance over this short period is explained by having a good number of mildly underperforming stocks — stocks that had gains, but whose gains fell short of the 8.85% rise in the Index.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
One market dynamic that worked against our quality-driven style was the outperformance of lower-quality names. As investors anticipated a stronger economic recovery, stocks of economically sensitive companies tended to do especially well, regardless of their long-term fundamentals. For example, some of the market’s biggest winners were the truly discretionary consumer names that were hit hardest over the last 18 months. Mall-based fashion retailers would be an example. We lost some relative ground by not owning some of these beaten-down cyclical stocks, which we consider to have few sustainable competitive advantages.
One of our favorite measures of quality is return on capital,† a statistic we track from quarter to quarter. Our companies generally score well on this metric since they tend to have stable revenue streams and competitive advantages that support high margins. Our studies show that, during the quarter, companies with lower-than-average returns on capital outperformed higher-return businesses, which is not uncommon in a market rally led by lower-quality stocks.
After falling approximately 29% in 2009, the average small cap U.S. bank stock gained more than 13% in the first quarter. This was also a headwind for the Fund. We have steered clear of U.S. banks since well before the financial crisis unfolded. While there are certainly a few great values to be
uncovered in small banks, we think the risks continue to outweigh the potential rewards. We expect asset growth to stay muted and that credit-related charge-offs will remain elevated for some time.
One way we have played these trends is through our ownership of Aaron’s, Inc. With banks tightening their lending standards, many consumers are finding credit harder to come by. Furthermore, the weak job market has made people reluctant to use their savings to purchase big-ticket items. These factors have fueled strong demand for the products and services of Aaron’s, a rent-to-own company. It was one of our best-performing stocks this quarter. A consumer can walk into an Aaron’s store, enter into a rental contract and walk out with any number of items, from a bedroom set to a large-screen TV. Customers typically make payments once a month and can decide to return the merchandise at any time without penalty. Rent-to-own transactions are generally more expensive than outright purchases, but they are a valuable option for consumers lacking other forms of credit.
Allegiant Travel Co., another strong performer, is a low-cost airline that offers non-stop flights from small cities across the United States to major leisure destinations. The company continues to execute well and reported healthy revenue growth for the fourth quarter of 2009. In addition, Allegiant announced that it would begin offering service to Hawaii, which we think could develop into an important market. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
Our thinking has been that 2010 would be a stock picker’s market, and that the market would reward high-quality companies showing good earnings growth in a difficult economy. So far, we have not seen this type of environment. The rising tide of the rebounding economy has lifted most stocks higher, with many lower quality, economically sensitive names doing especially well. The question is: How do these stocks continue to lead the market if the economy does not continue to improve?
We are not economists, but we think our country faces some powerful headwinds. The housing market remains fragile, the federal debt is large and growing, unemployment is high and taxes are on the rise. It is difficult for us to envision the economy returning to a normal rate of long-run growth under these circumstances. As a result, we have not changed our outlook for 2010. We continue to believe that companies generating solid growth, even in a low-growth economy, will outperform. In this light, we think the Fund is well positioned. Importantly, we believe our companies’ earnings growth rates are sustainable — not just as the economy rebounds, but in 2011 and beyond.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

WASATCH EMERGING MARKETS SMALL CAP FUND (WAEMX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Roger Edgley and Laura Geritz.
Roger D. Edgley, CFA Portfolio Manager |
Laura Geritz, CFA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Wasatch Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund gained 7.69% in the first quarter, which exceeded the 5.07% gain of the benchmark MSCI Emerging Markets Small Cap Index. With such a |
strong rise in 2009, we expected to see some retracement. However, with more evidence of global recovery and continued global re-allocation into emerging markets, we continue to see strong investment flows into them. As a result of the crisis, there has been a longer-term re-assessment of the case for emerging markets, especially in the context of sovereign debt and government revenues. The Wasatch research team traveled extensively in the first quarter visiting countries including China, India, Taiwan and Egypt. Meetings with management teams indicated a general sense of business returning to normal, with some degree of caution. It was not the freeze of last year, where a lack of confidence translated into a lack of investment and spending.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
The first quarter of 2010 was marked by the performance of “second tier” emerging markets, the smaller markets that are outside the higher profile BRIC markets (Brazil, Russia, India and China). It is worth discussing two of these “second tier” markets in more detail to highlight why they are an important piece of the Fund and the kinds of businesses in which we invest.
One of the largest country contributors in the first quarter was Indonesia, punching well above its weight. Its economy is growing, governance — both political and corporate — has improved in the last 10 years and interest rates are the lowest in decades. Gross domestic product (GDP)* growth was 4.5% in 2009 — making it exceptional globally — and it is expected to grow by 5.6% this year. Consumer spending is robust. This growth is more solid as a result of the restructuring required after the financial crisis in 1997. Capital has been tighter since then and institutions have been strengthened. Stocks that contributed in the Fund were Ramayana Lestari Sentosa, a department store chain, Holcim Indonesia, a cement company, and Bank Tabungan Pensiunan Nasional, a bank with a developing microfinance franchise. The Indonesian index, the Jakarta Composite, was up 19% in U.S. dollar returns for the first quarter.
Another attractive “second tier” investment destination for Wasatch is Egypt. We recently returned from Egypt, seeing Middle Eastern and Egyptian companies there. Egypt is a country with 80 million people, and last year GDP growth
was 5%, outstanding in global terms. This year, it is expected to grow between 4% and 5% and the government is adopting a number of programs to accelerate investment into the country and its growth rate. It has been resilient during the financial crisis, primarily a function of being an under-levered economy. Egypt has been a cash economy, where wages are received in cash and not credited into a bank account, but electronic banking is slowly taking hold. The economy is also better than it looks on paper: like many emerging economies it has a substantial “grey” or unreported economy, typically 20% to 30% of reported GDP. Stocks we own in Egypt include Commercial International Bank, Egyptian Financials Group-Hermes Holding, and two cement companies. Commercial International has a history of prudent growth and is one of the highest return on assets (ROA),** best-capitalized banks in the entire emerging markets (EM) small cap universe. EFG Hermes is the premiere financial services firm in the Middle East.
Like many EM countries, there are close to 100 listed small cap companies in Egypt, giving us plenty of opportunities to find good investments. Moreover, the business models of the companies we own are relatively simple and do not need the bravest of assumptions to work in the long run.
The Fund enjoyed positive performance in every sector where we held a weighting, and performance relative to our benchmark was also strong. A similar story played out when looking at performance by country, with positive performance in most countries. Brazil gave back some earlier gains and was the Fund’s biggest detractor. We also experienced some weakness in one of our largest Chinese holdings, fashion apparel designer and retailer Ports Design Ltd. The company was the Fund’s single biggest detractor after announcing a pullback on plans to increase its store base. In China, Ports is a leading brand that manages business in a steady way. Profitability remains strong and we expect that the company will benefit from strong consumer growth in China for years to come. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
This coming year is looking more positive as time goes on, with more evidence of U.S. and global recovery. There are very real concerns about China’s growth and the solidity of that growth, and we share some of those concerns. While the headlines cover mostly what is happening in China or India, the Fund is structured to take advantage of broader EM growth. We expect to see performance come from a diverse list of countries, driven by strong GDP growth, stable banking systems and developing consumer spending.

WASATCH GLOBAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND (WAGOX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Global Opportunities Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Robert Gardiner and Blake Walker.
Robert Gardiner, CFA Portfolio Manager |
Blake H. Walker Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Global Opportunities Fund had a solid first quarter, with positive returns across a wide range of geographies and sectors. We continue to be pleased by the breadth of the good perform- |
ance, since the Fund’s mandate gives us the flexibility to invest in companies of any size, in any country, in any type of business.
In general, our portfolio companies are doing well, and their earnings are coming back with a vengeance. Part of the improvement is due to the easy comparisons from a year ago when the global economy was very weak. Even so, it is clear to us that economies around the world are recovering nicely and that business conditions are getting better.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
From a country perspective, the real shining star in the Fund was India. About a dozen of our Indian stocks posted double-digit gains, including Axis Bank Ltd., GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare Ltd. and Thermax India Ltd., a manufacturer of industrial equipment. We are finding many interesting companies in this fast-growing economy — companies that we think have great business models, seasoned management teams and attractive valuations. As a result, the Fund’s weighting in India is likely to climb.
The semiconductor industry was another key area of strength amid a rebound in global chip sales. Eighteen months ago, the revenues and earnings of semiconductor companies were falling off a cliff. The credit crisis had erupted, fear was spreading around the world and electronics manufacturers were slashing production and inventories. Since then, the outlook for these companies has brightened considerably. Demand is accelerating for cellphones, personal computers and a host of other chip-heavy products. In addition, inventories throughout the supply chain have had to be replenished. When we started the Fund in November 2008, prices of semiconductor stocks were well below any historically low level that we had seen. We bought quite a few of them, and this segment of the portfolio has performed extremely well since the Fund’s inception.
We continued to have some big winners in China, especially in the health care sector. However, we had some big losers, too, and China was a relatively weak market for us. Two of the Fund’s worst-performing stocks were Ports Design Ltd. and PCD Stores Ltd., Chinese consumer names that had dramatic gains last year. Both were down this
quarter on profit taking and worries about a possible slowdown in the red-hot Chinese economy. Ports Design, which is a domestic luxury brand, was also impacted by concerns about increased competition.
Improvement in the U.S. economy benefited U.S. bank stocks, and our relatively low exposure to the group was a headwind for the Fund. We have taken a hard look at the banks, since they outperformed coming out of the 1990– 1991 recession that followed the savings and loan crisis. However, we have decided to remain largely on the sidelines for now. While we think the U.S. economy will be strong this year, as it was in 1992, we are not convinced that it is going to be particularly robust three to five years out. Another troubling issue about the banks is that we are not sure they have appropriately recognized losses on commercial real estate loans.
We traveled to South Korea during the quarter and came back feeling upbeat about the country. South Korea has transformed itself from a supplier of low-cost products to an emerging global powerhouse in technology and a range of industrial industries. We are also seeing strength in other areas of the market, such as education and health care. Daewoong Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. is an example of a South Korean health care stock that we like, and we added to our position after meeting with the company in Seoul. This drug manufacturer had some margin pressure about a year ago, but is now showing strong earnings momentum and continues to trade at what we believe is a great value. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
Positive economic news has been driving the global equity market higher, and we do not see the current environment changing much in the very near term. However, some of the world’s central banks have started to tighten monetary policy, and investors could react negatively as others follow suit. Further out, we are worried about the end of economic stimulus programs, massive government deficits and ongoing stress in certain segments of the credit markets. Therefore, our outlook is fairly cautious. Stocks have rallied sharply over the past year, valuations are not what they used to be, and the global economy is facing some serious structural problems.
Given our view of the world, our main focus continues to be on quality. In each and every market, including emerging markets, we are trying to invest in what we consider to be the highest-quality names. If the global economy ends up growing faster than we expect, stocks of high-quality companies may not lead the market, but they should do just fine. And if we see the type of subdued growth we envision, we believe high-quality stocks will do better than average.

WASATCH GLOBAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY FUND (WAGTX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Global Science & Technology Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Sam Stewart.
Samuel S. Stewart, Jr. PhD, CFA Portfolio Manager
| OVERVIEW
Typically, the first paragraph of our quarterly letter to shareholders includes a statement regarding the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark. We intend to move away from this approach beginning with this letter, as we think the industry norm of tracking performance versus a broad index on a quarter-by-quarter basis distracts from the Fund’s long-term investment strategy. Our new mantra, forged by the pressure of the 2008–2009 credit |
crunch, is that we must invest “away from the market” as we attempt to deliver exceptional long-term returns.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
The Fund returned 6.47% in the quarter, bringing its 12-month return to 71.88%. We were fortunate enough to have invested all of our cash near the market bottom, which helped the Fund register its gain of over 70% in the past year. While our decision to invest in some higher quality stocks caused us to miss strong gains in some of the higher-risk stocks we sold, we think that the risk tradeoff is now getting long in the tooth. With many risky stocks being priced as though they offer more quality than they actually do, we are building a little cash and further rotating the Fund into attractively priced stocks that we believe are high quality.
This year, we plan to widen our information advantage on the stocks we own by reducing the number of positions in the Fund and plowing that time and effort back into our best ideas. Accordingly, the number of holdings in the Fund decreased during the quarter. While this shift may seem minor, we are executing this change gradually in order to ensure that we make the right decisions. We are particularly focused on reducing the number of developed-market companies the Fund holds. We feel less urgency to reduce the number of holdings in emerging markets, as our experience suggests that a wider net of investments is the best way to capture the exciting growth prospects in those countries.
We believe that while the markets are efficient most of the time, on occasion they drop a few opportunities for astute investors. A prerequisite to spotting these opportunities is to have a deeper understanding of our investments than the person on the other side of the trade. We need expertise in industries, sub-industries, companies and management teams, so that our information advantage gives us the conviction to invest when others are ignoring or selling.
Currently, we believe one such inefficiency exists in Wirecard AG, a German company that provides payment services for online transactions. An Internet rumor dragged down the stock price by 25% on one of the last days of the quarter. While we unfortunately participated in the sell-off, our
subsequent discussion with management gave us the confidence to buy more shares near the bottom. We think the company’s future is even brighter due to the continued rapid growth of online retail. Wirecard is now the Fund’s top holding.
Another smaller inefficiency we’ve acted on is MegaStudy Co. Ltd., a Korean education and test preparation company that sold off on investors’ exaggerated reaction to news of rising competition. We also have added to our holdings in the leading video game developers Activision Blizzard, Inc. and UbiSoft Entertainment S.A., whose stocks have sold off due to fears that the iPhone will damage their business models. We’re finding additional bargains among Japanese small caps with world-class results, such as the value-oriented drug retailer Create SD Holdings Co. Ltd.
In terms of performance, one of our most significant contributors was GuestLogix, Inc., a small Canada-based maker of software to facilitate retail transactions on planes. This service has been in rising demand from airlines, as low-cost carriers seek to boost non-ticket revenues in the environment of slower economic growth. GuestLogix reported stronger-than-expected results, driving its share price substantially higher. Our second largest contributor was Akamai Technologies, Inc., whose stock price surged as investors grew optimistic about the company’s role in helping the Internet handle increasing video traffic.
In the health care sector, our holding in NuVasive, Inc. added value. We held on to the stock as it underperformed in 2009, believing that the company’s fundamental strength would ultimately be reflected in its stock price. Our patience paid off when the stock rose nearly 30% in a single day in late February after the insurer Aetna announced that it would cover one of NuVasive’s spinal procedures.
Aside from Wirecard, other notable detractors included the Chinese stocks Shanda Interactive Entertainment Ltd., China Automation Group Ltd., and Wasion Group Holdings Ltd. We elected to sell all three stocks in favor of more attractive opportunities elsewhere. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
We are gratified the Fund performed well for the quarter and the past year, a time when investors who focus on higher-quality companies have not necessarily been rewarded with strong performance. As always, we continue to focus on individual company research to seek out new opportunities and monitor potential risks for the stocks we hold in the Fund. The information technology and health care sectors contain a wealth of companies with product cycles that rise and fall independently of broader economic trends. We believe our approach — focusing on company-level developments rather than the macroeconomic picture — is well-suited for investing in these diverse and dynamic sectors.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

WASATCH HERITAGE GROWTH FUND (WAHGX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Heritage Growth Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Chris Bowen and Ryan Snow.
Chris Bowen Portfolio Manager | Ryan Snow Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
As the stock market continued its advance for the fourth consecutive quarter off of the March 2009 bottom, the Wasatch Heritage Growth Fund also finished with a nice gain. Led by health care, |
the market rally was broad-based with every sector in the Fund — with the exception of energy — delivering positive performance.
While the Fund produced a solid return, it was disappointing that it did not outperform the Russell Midcap Growth Index. As the legs of the market rally have grown longer, investors have seemingly increased their threshold for risk. Some stocks that, in our opinion, are less stable than those held in the Fund have seen outsized gains. We have remained disciplined to our strategy, which involves a very selective investment process and high hurdle requirements for existing holdings as well as potential candidates. While we would hope to keep up with the market during periods of bullishness, we believe the Fund has the potential to outperform during downturns when a “flight to quality” by investors typically occurs. For example, although the Fund has underperformed during the market’s significant advance over the past year, the Fund’s relative strength during the preceding downturn has led to overall outperformance since the beginning of 2008 when warnings signs of the credit crisis began to emerge in earnest.
We are pleased with the Fund’s current positions and their corresponding weights. Our companies performed well and we are encouraged by the consistency of their business execution and profits.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
We believe that one of the surest ways to inhibit investing success is to hastily react to every piece of market news or rumor. We’re not in the game of trying to time the market. One of our core beliefs in managing the Fund is persistent patience. As long as our analysis is correct and we remain disciplined about the valuation of our holdings, we believe the Fund’s stocks will ultimately be rewarded through price appreciation. Because the market can often stay stubbornly irrational for lengthy periods, the patience to wait for price equilibrium to be restored is critical.
We took a position in Ross Stores, Inc. during late 2009 and continued to build our position in the discount name-brand retailer during the first quarter. The stock responded with a stellar quarter, making it the top contributor in the Fund with a 25% return. Importantly, we believe that
although Ross is a value retailer, it is relatively agnostic to the economic cycle. Not only is it performing well in the current downturn with a growing base of cost-conscious shoppers, but we also think that there is a certain core value-oriented consumer segment that will help it remain competitive in more normal environments. While the company’s earnings growth* has increased recently, it has also delivered over the longer term, recording average profit growth north of 25% over the last five years.
Our energy weight represents less than 6% of the entire Fund. Underperformance in the sector this quarter was primarily attributable to lower natural gas prices. Ultra Petroleum Corp. and Petrohawk Energy Corp. were two of our worst performers. In the commodities space, the lowest-cost producers will typically win out. Should current inventories diminish, causing natural gas prices to rise, Ultra Petroleum and Petrohawk Energy will benefit, but they are also profitable at current levels. We believe that as low-cost leaders in natural gas exploration and production, they will gain market share as higher cost competitors are forced to shut in more and more of their production. We also believe that they are both strategically positioned with access rights to geographically desirable drilling locations, which should enable them to increase low-cost production. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
As mentioned, we are pleased with the positioning of the Fund. Although the earnings of our companies generally didn’t trail off as much as the broader market during the depths of the crisis, they appear to be coming back strongly off of trough levels. Most of our companies are indicating that their businesses are stabilizing and are forecasting growth, albeit cautiously.
Over the next 12 months, we believe that, on average, earnings in the Fund will grow from still depressed levels in excess of 20%. With a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio** of 17, the Fund appears attractively valued.
Despite our optimism for the Fund’s holdings, we also realize there is a reasonable risk that the economy will not return to its normal growth rate anytime in the near future. There are many factors tugging at the economy that can hinder growth. High unemployment and burgeoning government debt are foremost among the impediments. In this type of environment, only top tier companies will flourish. Meanwhile, it appears to us that some stocks are priced in anticipation of a very strong, prolonged economic recovery.
Uncertainty in the macroenvironment is requiring us to be especially selective when deciding which companies deserve a spot in the Fund. We believe that this discretion, combined with the aforementioned patience has the potential to be rewarding for the Fund over the long-term.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

WASATCH HERITAGE VALUE FUND (WAHVX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Heritage Value Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Brian Bythrow.
Brian Bythrow, CFA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The U.S. equity markets continued to move upward in the first quarter of 2010, as investors were generally optimistic even as economic data remained mixed. In this environment, the Wasatch Heritage Value Fund posted a return of 6.22% for the quarter. These results closely tracked those of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, which returned 6.78% over the same period. |
Our positions in stocks that we felt were reasonably priced and offered moderate levels of growth and healthy dividend yields helped us to keep pace with the benchmark. Our individual stock selections in the financials sector, which we significantly underweighted relative to the Index, played a meaningful role in our positive performance for the quarter. Our strongest single position came from the health care sector, which overall proved resilient despite concerns about the impact of health care reform measures on earnings.
As we sold out of some fairly large positions during the period, our cash level rose significantly. In a positive market, this had negative impact on the Fund’s performance. We did, however, add a number of new positions to the portfolio as opportunities to buy stocks at reasonable prices arose.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
Our top contributor to performance over the three months was Mylan, Inc., a producer of generic drugs. This company has benefited as consumers and insurance providers have focused greater attention on reducing health care costs. Investors have also noted the company’s success thus far in integrating the operations of Merck’s generic drug portfolio that it acquired in 2008, and in paying down the debt from that acquisition. Despite its recent runup, we believe Mylan is still reasonably valued.
On a similar note, another top-five contributor was Perrigo Co., which produces over-the-counter versions of drugs that have recently come off patent. Recent strong earnings pushed Perrigo’s price-to-earnings multiple* higher than we were comfortable with, and we sold out of the position.
Akamai Technologies, Inc., a provider of a global platform of Internet servers, was another top contributor for the period. Not only is more information being moved across the Internet than ever before, but more of that data is also being stored in web-based ‘cloud’ environments. Both of these require greater server capacity, sparking higher demand for Akamai’s products and services.
Our weakest contributor for the period was Petrohawk Energy Corp., a natural-gas exploration and production company. We added this company to the portfolio over the quarter. We believe it is well-positioned for growth as demand for natural gas increases. For now, however, weak
prices for the commodity — the result of current oversupply — are suppressing its earnings.
As we sought to redeploy assets from selling a few of our larger positions, we were able to identify a number of new opportunities — some of them in areas we haven’t invested much in for a while.
Among these were two banks we added to the portfolio. We had been generally avoiding bank stocks in the wake of the credit crisis, but now we are seeing more signs of improvement on the credit front. One of the banks we’ve added is a familiar name to most consumers, Bank of America Corp., while the other, Hudson City Bancorp, Inc., is somewhat less ubiquitous. Both of these banks’ credit profiles are improving, and they appear positioned to capture additional market share from weaker competitors as the recovery continues. We purchased both at attractive valuations. In addition, Hudson City provides a healthy dividend yield.
Another addition during the period was Millicom International Cellular S.A. Millicom is the leading cellular carrier in Africa, which at this point is perhaps the last area of the world whose cellular market remains underpenetrated. We’re excited by the potential we see in this market and in Millicom, and were able to add the company at an attractive price. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
As we continue to work to deploy our cash, we intend to stay true to our investment discipline, particularly our focus on valuations. When dealing with larger-cap stocks, whose prices tend to be less volatile than those of smaller-cap stocks, finding the right entry point can be essential to producing attractive returns. While we don’t want to spend too much time sitting on our cash, we also don’t want to fall into the trap of buying good companies whose valuations leave little room for appreciation — or for that matter, of buying companies that are cheap for a good reason. We have a number of companies we’ve researched thoroughly and would like to add to the portfolio — we’re just waiting for them to be available at the right price.
Our overall outlook is positive, though we wouldn’t be at all surprised to see some short-term corrections in the market. Concerns about the potential for rising interest rates, the state of the U.S. dollar, and the impact of deficit spending all have the potential to trigger short-term declines. We’ll be carefully monitoring the markets and our companies, ready to act when opportunities emerge.

WASATCH INTERNATIONAL GROWTH FUND (WAIGX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch International Growth Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Roger Edgley.
Roger D. Edgley, CFA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Wasatch International Growth Fund returned 4.32% in the first quarter, underperforming the MSCI AC World Ex-U.S.A. Small Cap Index, which gained 5.32%. The best performing sector was health care, which delivered returns significantly ahead of the benchmark. Our Hong Kong-based Chinese companies had a disappointing first quarter, and Germany was also weak in large part to a single holding |
that was down significantly. We will discuss this in more detail shortly.
After the fierce rebound of the past 12 months — where the Fund returned over 88% — we expect this to be a slower year as valuations sit more in the middle territory of being reasonable.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
There is good evidence that economies are strengthening around the world, with confidence generally returning. There are still the structural concerns — justified in our opinion — about large government spending deficits and increased sovereign debt* levels. At the company level, investors are focusing more on earnings growth,** and a lot less on simple financial viability, which was the focus a year ago.
Our best sector was health care — helped by returns from Abcam plc (+24%) and RaySearch Laboratories AB (+49%). It is worth discussing in detail how we found these names, since we have held them for a number of years and it illuminates well our research process.
Abcam (short for “Antibody + Cambridge”) is based in Cambridge, England, and was founded by a Cambridge University research scientist. In the 12 years of its corporate life, Abcam has become a global provider to research labs in cancer, cell biology, and immunology. We first knew about the company at its initial public offering (IPO)† in late 2005. When we first bought the stock it had a market capitalization of around US$80 million, a minnow really compared to other companies. Today it is valued by the market at US$700 million with revenues and profits compounding at roughly 40% a year since the IPO. Wasatch’s long-term ownership of U.S. life sciences company Techne Corp.†† helped us understand the model originally. Taking U.S. business models we understand and applying them overseas (and vice versa) has and will continue to be an important way that our research process works.
RaySearch is a Swedish medical technology company we also discovered when it was a minnow with a market capitalization under US$100 million. It was founded by Johan Lof, along with some other researchers in 2000, based on research carried out at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden. Johan’s background and the focus of his team’s research is in creating programs (software driven) for radiation therapy in
cancer treatment, allowing for more targeted, effective treatments. The company had no analyst coverage at its IPO and was not understood since there are few comparable companies globally. RaySearch has hit its share of earnings bumps over the years, but today we see it as an exciting medical technology company. It is valued at US$215 million and we still see strong prospects backed by innovation.
Our worst performing country was Germany, mainly because of Wirecard AG, one of our top 10 positions. Wirecard is a payment processor for the online retail market. It is strong throughout Europe where online retail is growing robustly, and is slowly moving into Asia. Sentiment on the stock has been poor, with negative news that appears to have no basis in fact, which we believe has caused overreaction. On fundamentals we think nothing has changed.
We have continued to build our names in financial services. There has been much more focus on financial companies in emerging markets (EM) lately, after exceptional performance last year. EM economies survived the financial crisis in better overall shape than the developed world — a function of simpler, robust financial systems tied into economies where there was less leverage overall. In countries like India and Brazil — where the Fund owns banks like Allahabad Bank Ltd. and Banco Daycoval S.A. — consumer credit penetration is still very low, corporate loans are picking up and policy makers have taken a stimulative stance. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
We believe the large global valuation uplift of 2009 has passed and now for our Fund it is a question more of individual stock picking, where returns are largely determined by earnings growth and returns on capital. In some regions — like Western Europe — companies do not get much help from their domestic economies but aim to grow overseas. For regions like Asia, there is a lot more domestic growth underpinned by government investment and consumer spending growth, where credit systems can help drive this growth. The competitive climate has been altered by the crisis, which has cleared out a lot of underbrush. The more competitive, world-class companies will have less competition in their marketplace and capital will be tighter for start-ups and marginal competitors. In short, we believe it will be a good environment for high quality companies that can self-finance growth by virtue of their higher returns on capital and balance sheets. These are our target companies.

WASATCH INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND (WAIOX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch International Opportunities Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Roger Edgley and Blake Walker.
Roger D. Edgley, CFA Portfolio Manager |
Blake H. Walker Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
Global stocks enjoyed another positive quarter at the start of 2010, with no single trend driving the markets. Over the quarter, we saw companies responding to signs that the global economy |
would be able to avoid a double-dip recession.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Wasatch International Opportunities Fund returned 6.05%, placing just ahead of its benchmark, the MSCI World Ex-U.S.A. Small Cap Index, which returned 5.41% for the period. As has been the case in recent quarters, no one factor was responsible for our outperformance. Our strong stocks came from a variety of industries and a broad range of countries.
We continued to focus our attention on fundamental research, seeking out companies with the management teams, business models, and competitive advantages that can allow them to produce healthy earnings growth.* As is our usual practice, we visited companies in a number of markets around the globe during the period. This hands-on research is essential to our investment process, and allows us to identify companies that we believe can contribute positively to our results — and that others overlook.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
A look at the companies driving our performance offers a good snapshot of the Fund’s diversity across markets and sectors. At the top of the list was Mexico’s Genomma Lab Internacional S.A., a fast-growing distributor of over-the-counter medicines, generic drugs, and personal-care products to stores throughout Mexico. Good management, excellent marketing, and a nice tailwind for health care have all helped propel this company forward. We still like the company’s outlook, but are mindful that at this point Genomma’s valuation has moved up significantly.
Goodpack Ltd., a Singapore-based logistics company that provides bulk containers used in shipping goods around the world, was our second-strongest holding. Goodpack’s stock has been boosted by anticipated strong demand for exported goods around the world. As the economic recovery continues, Goodpack’s business appears well-positioned to grow further, and its profit margins on incremental business are quite high.
In a related industry, Middle Eastern shipper Aramex PJSC rounds out our top three contributors. Though it was among our weaker performers in the fourth quarter of 2009, so far this year its stock price has moved up along with demand for its services. The company has successfully reduced its
dependence on lower-margin European freight shipping, allowing it to maintain strong profits in a market where revenue per package is very low. Aramex’s strong balance sheet helped it to weather the weaker economic climate, and now that demand appears to be building in anticipation of a recovery, it’s in a position to gain substantial market share. In short, we believe Aramex exemplifies the World’s Best Growth Companies** that we are dedicated to finding.
Our biggest detractor this quarter was Germany’s Wirecard AG, an electronic payment processor that has previously been a strong portfolio holding. In recent months, the company has been hit by a wave of rumor-driven short selling that we believe was unjustified. After examining the issue carefully, at this point we remain confident in Wirecard.
During the quarter, members of the Wasatch research team traveled the globe visiting companies, making stops in South Korea, Egypt, Taiwan, China, and India, to name just a few of our destinations. Intensive screening before these trips helped us identify those companies that warranted a visit.
In many cases, when we visit a company, we find that we’re the only investment team to have done so. We think our willingness to engage directly with companies off the beaten path gives us an advantage in finding candidates for the Fund that may be small in terms of market capitalization, but are leaders in their markets, are able to post high annual growth rates, and have the tools they need to succeed in a competitive global landscape.
From our visits this quarter, we made several new additions to the portfolio. One is South Korea’s Koh Young Technology, Inc., a maker of 3D inspection and measurement systems. We were impressed with the management team’s business acumen, and their grasp of the competitive pressures they face. Like many stocks in Korea, Koh Young was attractively valued. This company’s market cap is just $65 million, keeping it off the radar of most international investors. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
Our overall outlook for 2010 is positive, though we anticipate that there may well be some blips in the markets, particularly during the remainder of the year’s first half. Valuations in many of the world’s markets are quite reasonable, and consumers in emerging markets continue to show a healthy appetite for more and better products and services.
We’re encouraged that we’re still able to identify so many fundamentally strong companies, in a wide range of markets and industries, selling at attractive valuations. We’ll continue to travel throughout the world to find these companies, combining our on-site research with careful scrutiny of the fundamentals once we’re back home.

WASATCH MICRO CAP FUND (WMICX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Micro Cap Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Daniel Chace.
Daniel Chace, CFA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Wasatch Micro Cap Fund gained 7.32% during the first quarter. The period was characterized by rising confidence in the sustainability of the economic recovery and a rebound in corporate earnings. Against this favorable backdrop, the U.S. stock market posted its fourth straight quarter of gains. The S&P 500* advanced 5.39%, and the Russell 2000 Index rose 8.85%. It was nice to see the Fund start |
2010 with a positive return after such a big gain last year. Results were especially strong in information technology and health care, two sectors where our bottom-up research has uncovered many interesting companies. We did lose some ground relative to the Russell 2000 Index, mainly in the consumer discretionary and financials sectors. Overall, our stocks in these sectors had gains, but they did not keep up with the consumer discretionary and financials stocks in the Index.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
Several of our semiconductor stocks posted double-digit gains this quarter, contributing to strong performance in the information technology sector. As the global economy has rebounded, so has demand for chips, and the operating results of our semiconductor companies have generally been solid. In addition, business spending on computers and machinery is expected to continue to grow in the months ahead. One of the top contributors in the Fund was Power Integrations, Inc., which had an especially good quarter and issued positive guidance. Power Integrations designs semiconductors that regulate power usage for electronic products, including cellphone chargers, DVD players and industrial controls. Because its chips are more energy efficient than competing technologies, the company is benefiting from the trend among regulatory agencies worldwide to raise energy efficiency standards.
In the health care sector, a number of our holdings in the equipment/supplies, life sciences and biotechnology industries gained more than 20%. One example was Abcam plc (United Kingdom), an online supplier of antibodies used by medical researchers to study protein function in cells. The company is growing rapidly and reported strong operating results for the second half of 2009, including a 60% increase in earnings. In our opinion, Abcam is an interesting, innovative business that has plenty of headroom for additional growth. The number of proteins being identified and studied is increasing, and we think the sophistication of the company’s sales portal makes it well-positioned to capitalize on rising demand.
Consumer spending is picking up on signs of stabilization in the job and housing markets, and the improvement was a tailwind for many of our consumer discretionary stocks. That said, weak results from our foreign-listed consumer
names limited gains in the sector. The biggest detractor in the Fund was Ports Design Ltd., a Chinese manufacturer and retailer of luxury apparel that was one of our best performing stocks in 2009. Ports’ operating metrics remained strong, but the fundamentals of the company were overshadowed by macroeconomic concerns. Specifically, the Chinese government is taking steps to rein in the country’s booming economy, such as raising reserve requirements for banks. While Ports is sensitive to economic cycles, we believe it is still a good long-run growth story given rising affluence in China.
After falling approximately 29% last year, the average small cap U.S. bank stock gained more than 13% in the first quarter. This negatively impacted the Fund’s performance versus the Russell 2000 Index since we are underweight in U.S. banks. In addition, most of the bank stocks that we do own underperformed, including Nara Bancorp, Inc. Nara is a Korean-American bank based in Los Angeles that focuses on lending to small and mid-sized businesses. The company raised capital in October with the intent of buying a failed bank from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC). The potential for an FDIC-assisted deal was a positive for the stock, as these transactions can boost the earnings and capital ratios of the acquiring banks. Recent developments, such as the CEO’s retirement, make it less likely that Nara will pursue an FDIC-assisted purchase in the immediate term. However, we think there is a good chance that a deal could happen later in the year. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
News on the U.S. economy has been more upbeat, corporate earnings are recovering and investor sentiment has improved. However, the United States is facing serious challenges that cloud the outlook for the economy and stock market going forward. The government is starting to unwind fiscal and monetary stimulus, and it is unclear how the economy will perform without this support. Longer term, the huge federal debt and projected growth in entitlement spending threaten to diminish the rate of growth in the United States.
We believe the Fund is well-positioned for the uncertain environment. In our opinion, we have invested in a good selection of companies that are less sensitive than average to overall economic growth. These are companies whose individual characteristics should allow them to sidestep some of the limitations of the economy — companies that can grow because of innovation, strong management or the ability to serve a particular market niche. In light of our reservations about the U.S. economy, we are looking to increase our exposure to high-growth foreign countries. For example, we added to our position in a U.S.-listed Chinese company this quarter following a recent trip to China.

WASATCH MICRO CAP VALUE FUND (WAMVX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Micro Cap Value Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Brian Bythrow.
Brian Bythrow, CFA Portfolio Manager
| OVERVIEW
U.S. stocks continued to move upward in the first quarter of 2010, as investors were generally optimistic even as economic data remained mixed. In this environment, the Wasatch Micro Cap Value Fund posted a return of 5.36% for the quarter. This placed the Fund’s performance somewhat behind its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 8.85% over the same period. |
Stock selection in information technology made the strongest contribution to our performance for the quarter. Over the period, the consumer discretionary sector was the strongest in our benchmark, as investors responded to a pickup in consumer spending on smaller-ticket items (such as apparel). This is an area of the U.S. market we have typically underweighted, though we do have significant exposure to consumers in emerging markets.
One of the factors in our underperformance during the quarter was our significant position in foreign stocks. While there were certainly some bright spots among our international holdings, a number of the markets we’ve invested in were weaker than the U.S. over the three months. Another reason for our underperformance was our cash position, which rose as we received significant inflows of new assets to invest, and as we sold out of positions in companies whose market capitalizations had grown beyond the limits of our Fund mandate. Overall, value stocks at the larger end of the small cap spectrum outperformed those at the micro cap end.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
Our top contributor to performance for the quarter was GuestLogix, Inc. This Canadian company provides software and equipment used in making retail sales to passengers on airlines, trains, and ships. The company’s ongoing success in adding major carriers to its customer base has allowed it to deliver strong results. Now that its market capitalization has grown to near the minimum threshold for many investors, it appears likely to turn up on even more radar screens.
Another top performer from the information technology sector was U.S.-based Sanmina-SCI Corp., a contract electronics manufacturer. As Sanmina has benefited from increasing demand for its products, as well as its successful restructuring and cost-cutting efforts, its market cap has grown very rapidly. This ultimately placed it outside our micro cap range, so we sold out of the position.
In somewhat of a turnabout, a number of companies that had recently been among our strongest contributors detracted from our results this past quarter. For example, Spain’s Telvent GIT, S.A., a producer of open-road tolling equipment and other smart technologies, faced concerns that a substantial part of its business comes from its home
market, which is burdened with heavy layers of debt and other financial concerns that could reduce spending on public infrastructure projects. China’s Wasion Group Holdings Ltd. saw its share price knocked down after it failed to win an anticipated contract, sparking fears that it would face serious price competition. Germany’s Wirecard AG, an online payment processor, was hit by negative rumors concerning the activities of some users of Wirecard’s services. We sold out of Telvent and greatly reduced our position in Wasion, but after carefully examining the issues with Wirecard, we retain confidence in the company and have maintained our investment there.
Over the quarter, we began to add positions in several small U.S. banks to the portfolio. This is an area we had long avoided, as banks in this part of the marketplace were often among the most hurt by the credit crisis, and in many cases were not well-positioned to work through the problems it produced. Now, however, we are seeing more signs that there is improvement on the credit front, and small banks are trading at historically low valuations. So we have felt comfortable moving into several small banks that meet our criteria of having both stable to improving credit profiles and excess capital. We have been able to buy these banks at valuations as low as one times tangible book value.*
One of the banks we’ve added is Lakeland Financial Corp., which is headquartered in Indiana. The company’s track record looks solid, and we’ve had the opportunity to meet extensively with management. We believe this bank is in a good position to gain market share. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
As we continue to work to deploy our cash, we intend to stay true to our investment discipline, particularly our focus on investing in undervalued companies. We don’t want to fall into the trap of buying good companies whose valuations leave little room for appreciation — or for that matter, of buying companies that are cheap for a good reason. Our rigorous investment process may mean it will take longer for us to put all of our cash to work, but we believe the end results make the time and effort worthwhile.
Although we’re never happy to lag the Index, we’ve seen before that the short-term behavior of micro cap stocks can be fairly uncorrelated to that of the broader market. In our view, if the companies in our portfolio are posting strong results and their stocks are reasonably valued, then over time we believe we should see attractive results.

WASATCH SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND (WAAEX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Small Cap Growth Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Jeff Cardon.
Jeff Cardon, CFA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Wasatch Small Cap Growth Fund gained 5.25% during the first quarter of 2010 in what was a positive environment for U.S. equities. All major style and capitalization segments of the market advanced as our economy showed signs of improvement. The S&P 500 Index* was up 5.39%, and the Russell 2000 and Russell 2000 Growth indices rose 8.85% and 7.61%, respectively. It was the |
fourth straight quarter of gains for the market following its March 2009 bottom.
While the Fund did well in absolute terms, it trailed the small cap indices. This shortfall was not unexpected, since our quality-driven style tends to lag off of market bottoms. Historically, a bear market is followed by a full-blown junk rally in which stocks of unprofitable companies and companies with weak balance sheets post very strong returns. There have been times during this yearlong rally when low-quality stocks have dominated the market, but those periods have been more sporadic in nature.
We believe the absence of a traditional, sustained junk rally is related to long-run concerns about the economy. Investors are seeing the economy improve, but they are also worried the recovery might not be particularly dynamic due to huge U.S. debt levels. Instead of plowing full steam ahead into low-quality stocks, investors are keeping some of their assets invested in high-quality companies — companies whose solid balance sheets and business models should allow them to grow even in a low-growth environment. Because of this “nod” to quality, quality growth stocks — the kind we like to own — have held their own. As a result, our relative performance has been better than expected off the market bottom.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
Most of our retail names did extremely well this quarter, which we think is a reflection of the pickup in the economy. Two of our top-contributing stocks were Zumiez, Inc. and Hibbett Sports, Inc., both of which reported solid revenue and earnings growth.** Zumiez is a retail chain that caters to teens and young adults who enjoy action sports like surfing and skateboarding. The company has a relatively small store base, and we believe it can double in size by opening new stores across the country. Hibbett sells athletic apparel and equipment in rural markets where competition from big-box sporting goods chains is limited. This unique positioning, along with efficiencies gained from implementing supply chain technologies, should fuel continued strong growth at the company.
One of the most powerful long-term investment themes we have identified is the need for businesses to be more efficient as they compete in a lower-growth and more competitive global economy. Companies are clearly looking to increase productivity without increasing headcount. One of
the best ways to accomplish this is to invest in technology-related products and services with compelling economic paybacks. A number of our technology stocks are benefiting from this focus on delivering efficiency. They include Riverbed Technology, Inc., a leader in the wide area network (WAN) optimization market, and Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp., a provider of information technology (IT) services. Both were top contributors this quarter.
With respect to efficiency, it is clear to us that there are countless inefficiencies that need to be taken out of the health care system for the cost-control goals of reform to be achieved. Computer Programs and Systems, Inc. and athenahealth, Inc. are examples of names we own that are positioned to do well under the new health care legislation. These companies provide hospitals and doctors’ offices with IT platforms that streamline high-volume administrative functions, such as medical recordkeeping and claims processing. Both stocks were weak this quarter as potential customers sorted out the terms of a government program that incentivizes the use of electronic medical records. However, we still believe athenahealth and Computer Programs and Systems will be good long-term investments.
Tetra Tech, Inc. and Stantec, Inc. were two other names that underperformed this quarter. Both are engineering firms that are beneficiaries of infrastructure build-out and federal stimulus money. Much of the federal stimulus money has not reached the real economy, and state and local governments have seen tax revenues decline during the recession. These two factors have had an impact on the near-term financial results of Tetra Tech and Stantec. Despite their recent weakness, we believe these stocks have the potential to perform well over time as federal contracts materialize this year and as the economy continues to improve. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
The federal government has provided a tremendous amount of fiscal and monetary stimulus, and the economy is clearly beginning to grow again. This positive factor is offset by the “Big Three” long-run concerns: unprecedented levels of U.S. debt, rising taxes needed to pay for growing government spending, and high unemployment. It is hard for us to imagine the economy returning to a normal rate of long-run growth under these conditions. In the no-frills economy we foresee, we believe that owning quality growth stocks — the types of stocks we like to own in the Fund — has the potential to be a winning strategy. However, if the economy picks up steam and grows at or above a normal recovery rate, we would expect the market to go from being guarded with respect to risk to becoming a “risk-taking” market. In this scenario, stocks of lower-quality companies would likely do better than average.

WASATCH SMALL CAP VALUE FUND (WMCVX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Small Cap Value Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Jim Larkins.
Jim Larkins, MBA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Wasatch Small Cap Value Fund posted a solid return of 5.86% in the first quarter, but lagged the Russell 2000 Value Index, which gained 10.02%. Markets in general seem to be pricing in a strong economic recovery, which is good news. To us, however, the bigger question is not if the economy is truly recovering, but how fast and sustainable the current recovery is. |
Rather than trying to guess the timing and magnitude of recovery, we continue to stick to our time-tested investment process of using deep due diligence to identify attractive companies that are currently undervalued.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
Not surprisingly given the double-digit returns of the broader market, the Fund sported its share of strong performers in the quarter. Among our notable winners was the action-sports retailer Zumiez, Inc., for which robust improvement in fundamentals led to strong earnings growth* compared to the same period last year.
The information technology sector was also home to some strong performers, including OPNET Technologies, Inc. The company, which makes network management software, has embarked on a product cycle that should allow it to leapfrog its competition over the next year or so. This important development was recognized in the market during the first quarter, leading to a robust gain in OPNET’s stock price. Polycom, Inc., a maker of video-conferencing products, saw its shares rise as corporate information technology (IT) managers continued to gear their spending toward technologies that can provide an immediate return on investment. Additionally, Micrel, Inc. — a newer holding in the Fund — gained ground as improving fundamentals prompted investors to re-price its shares off of a valuation level that was near a five-year low.
Aside from our positioning in the financials and consumer discretionary sectors, the Fund’s main detractors came from a few individual holdings that experienced stock-specific difficulties. Our largest detractor was Nara Bancorp, Inc., whose stock price lost ground after investors became worried about management turnover at the bank. In the telecommunication services sector, a notable underperformer was Cbeyond, Inc., whose business of providing integrated telecom solutions to small businesses is seeing increased competition from larger operators (such as cable companies). We have eliminated both stocks from the Fund.
A new holding in General Cable Corp., an electricity infrastructure firm, lost ground after its most recent earnings report came in below expectations. We think the company is attractively valued, and — despite its initial price weakness — we see it as a compelling way to capitalize on the need to
modernize the U.S. power grid as well as capture opportunities in emerging economies. Historically, it has paid to hold stocks through weakness providing that valuations are attractive and the fundamental story remains intact. We see this as being the case with General Cable.
OUTLOOK
We are encouraged to see signs that the economy is finally beginning to undergo what looks to be a meaningful recovery. Stronger economic growth naturally translates into higher corporate earnings, which in turn helps stock prices move higher even if valuations don’t expand any further. The question, of course, is how long will this process of recovery take to play out? Since the answer is largely unknowable, we are opting for a conservative approach by taking advantage of opportunities as they present themselves but not being overly aggressive in adding new investments to the Fund.
An example of this process at work can be found in our approach to the financials sector. We added a number of new financial stocks to the Fund during the past three months, including Trustmark Corp. and Washington Federal, Inc., among others. At the same time, however, we took care to add only small positions until the broader credit issues in the sector play themselves out.
Although the market has come a long way in the past year, there are still plenty of opportunities for small cap investors who do their research. We found many such opportunities in stocks that the Fund has owned in the past and that we have continued to follow. One such stock is EnergySolutions, Inc., which specializes in the disposal of nuclear waste. Another is the oil and gas services company Willbros Group, Inc., which could benefit from energy infrastructure investments. These new holdings, together with the other additions we have made to the Fund, are part of our ongoing effort to replace stocks that have become fully valued with new, more compelling, investments.
We continue to find the industrials sector to be fertile ground for such investments. The Fund is overweight in this group as a result of two factors: first, the higher proportion of attractive values available in the sector; and two, the compelling opportunities in the trucking and logistics industry. The trucking business experienced substantial upheaval during the recession, with the end result being reduced capacity and improved pricing power for the remaining companies. This helps form the thesis for our holdings in Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc., Marten Transport, Ltd., and Vitran Corp., Inc. We also hold substantially overweight positions in the information technology and health care sectors, where bottom-up research has been particularly effective in finding undervalued companies with rapidly growing niche markets. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
Overall, we believe the Fund is well positioned for an environment of gradual economic expansion.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

WASATCH STRATEGIC INCOME FUND (WASIX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Strategic Income Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Sam Stewart.
Samuel S. Stewart, Jr. PhD, CFA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
From Wasatch’s founding in 1975 to the market peak of 2007, the Dow Jones Industrial Average* advanced from the 800 level to more than 14,000, a 17-fold increase. In hindsight (and notwithstanding interim gyrations), the correct investment strategy over these 32-years was to be aggressively bullish. However, the 2008–2009 market meltdown served as a reminder that, no matter how bullish one might be, a good investor should never forget the |
cardinal rule of money management: Always Be Cautious. Capital takes a great deal of time and effort to accumulate, so a prudent investor should always work to avoid investing such that capital is exposed to unnecessary risk. I disregarded this rule in 2008, as my excitement for the opportunity provided by seeming bargains early in the year overshadowed my fear of the deteriorating economic environment.
During the latter half of 2008 and the early months of 2009, the market continued to ride the down elevator until fear overwhelmed any remnants of greed for most investors. Fortunately, I did not succumb to this panic, but instead looked for signs of capitulation as a signal that the market had reached bottom.
While the market and the Fund enjoyed strong performance for the balance of 2009 — the Fund’s return over the last 12 months was almost 50% — I’ve vowed that, no matter the apparent opportunity, I will Always Be Cautious managing the Strategic Income Fund.
The prospect for an economic recovery continues to gain traction and the stock market responded during the first quarter with the S&P 500 Index delivering a surprisingly strong 5.39% return. I was pleased that the Fund returned 4.54% while assuming less risk than the market as a whole.
Even though indications are that economic improvement is afoot, it is worth remembering that we are in uncharted waters given the extreme level of stimulus efforts undertaken by governments around the world. There are also large structural issues still facing the U.S. economy: high and stagnant unemployment, limited availability of credit, and the expanding role of government. These challenges will impact our economic growth for months and years to come.
Although it is virtually impossible to eliminate exposure to these underlying issues, we attempt to dampen the amplitude of their impact on the Fund. This is accomplished by striving to purchase high quality companies that are attractively valued and paying solid and/or growing dividends. I believe this approach creates a growth opportunity in the form of capital appreciation and growing dividends as well as providing some potential downside protection due to the quality and valuation of the companies.
During the quarter, I rotated toward more favorably valued stocks and increased the Fund’s cash position to around 10%.
This creates a measure of caution while also providing dry powder to use when better opportunities present themselves.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
Overall, the Fund’s first quarter performance was driven by gains across our spectrum of holdings. Every sector, except our small weight in materials, realized a positive return. I was pleased that the Fund again successfully avoided large negative surprises. I believe this helps validate our disciplined investment process focused on company quality and valuation sensitivity.
The Fund’s financial holdings were the primary drivers of performance. Legacy holdings such as real estate investment trusts (REITs) Redwood Trust, Inc. and CapLease, Inc. performed well, as did Ares Capital Corp., a business development company. In addition to appreciating nicely, these companies also continued to pay a generous dividend, as management has been adept at exploiting the current steep yield curve.
The Fund made some new investments this quarter, including purchases of Solar Capital Ltd., Xilinx, Inc. and Intel Corp. Solar Capital is a business development company that the Fund has owned for some time as a private placement. The company went public during the quarter and I increased the Fund’s position through the initial public offering (IPO).** Xilinx and Intel are semiconductor companies that I believe are positioned to remain market leaders as the demand for microchips expands exponentially. Unlike many technology companies, each also pays an attractive dividend. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
Six months ago in this commentary I made a comparison between the economy and a traveler struggling to traverse a white-water river, who upon reaching the other side found a steep embankment still to be scaled. Certainly there was some relief in making it through the most perilous aspect of the journey, but another difficult and patience-testing battle still lay ahead.
To continue this analogy, the traveler has made good progress climbing the bank. This has given the market much confidence and hope. Perhaps more than is warranted given the climb that remains, and more importantly the long road that awaits the traveler once he makes it to the top of the bank.
I expect patience and discipline will be the driver of investment success in the coming years. Economic growth is likely to come more slowly and investment returns may well be lower than they have been historically. However, I continue to believe that equities are one of the best investment opportunities for the decade ahead.
I am committed to doing a better job of providing downside protection in the Fund, while still capturing reasonable upside returns and providing a consistent stream of dividend income. My long-term goal of achieving returns that fall between stocks and bonds remains unchanged.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

WASATCH ULTRA GROWTH FUND (WAMCX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch Ultra Growth Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Ajay Krishnan.
Ajay Krishnan, CFA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Wasatch Ultra Growth Fund had a healthy return of 7.30% in the year’s first quarter, as U.S. stocks continued in a positive direction. Our performance closely tracked that of the Russell 2000 Growth Index, which posted a 7.61% gain in the first quarter. As we saw in the second half of last year, the market’s surge was driven largely by investors’ attraction to lower-quality stocks. Given our preference for higher-quality, faster-growing stocks, this |
created a headwind for the Fund during the quarter. We were nonetheless able to keep close to the market thanks to earnings growth* among our companies that was not only stronger than the benchmark, but also better than we anticipated. This captured earnings growth reflects our careful focus on companies with solid fundamentals and distinctive business themes that we believe can help buoy the portfolio during a recession, and has the potential to help it move ahead of the pack as the economy rebounds.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
Once again, information technology was our strongest sector for the quarter. Longtime top holding Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp. was a leading contributor. Many had feared that this IT outsourcing company would be hurt by weakness in the financials sector, which provides about half of its business. Instead it seems that pressure on financial companies to cut costs and improve earnings has led them to continue to make use of outsourcing’s cost efficiencies.
Our holdings in the health care sector, an area of weakness last quarter, were also positive contributors over the past three months. Our strongest stock in this area was NuVasive, Inc., whose products are used in minimally invasive spinal surgeries. We were somewhat surprised at the positive returns posted by many health care stocks over the past three months. The passage of health care reform in the U.S. makes it seem likely that price-to-earnings multiples** for health care companies will stay under pressure, even as demand for medical services appears set to rise.
Market observers have noted that historically when the economy is in the first couple of years coming out of a recession some of the strongest equity sectors have been energy, financials and health care, with consumer discretionary and consumer staples being among the weakest. This historic pattern did not hold true over the past quarter, as the consumer discretionary area proved to be the best-performing sector in the Russell 2000 Growth Index for the period. This sector was lifted in large part by solid same-store sales figures from retailers, especially in apparel.
This development hurt our relative results for the quarter because we continued to underweight consumer stocks, as they generally fell short of our stringent, fundamental investment criteria. That said, the stocks we did hold in this
sector actually outperformed their counterparts in the Index; it was only our under-allocation here that hurt returns relative to the Index.
Notably, fitness club operator Life Time Fitness, Inc. landed among our best contributors for the period. The company has beaten earnings estimates, and appears to be benefiting from consumers’ concern for health and fitness and willingness to pay for convenient, upscale facilities. Two retailers also made solid contributions to our results for the quarter. Zumiez, Inc. sells active wear targeted to the influential and style-conscious teenage skater/snowboarder demographic. Its stores are designed to build its customers’ sense of connection with the brand. Zumiez was also positioned to benefit from the heavy media attention snowboarding received during the recent Winter Olympics. Discount retailer Dollar Tree, Inc., in contrast, offers an array of everyday household goods priced at just $1. While earlier there was some concern that these stores may have difficulty maintaining customer loyalty once the economic recovery hits full swing, sales trends suggest that shopping and saving at dollar stores has become a habit that many consumers aren’t eager to give up.
Although the Fund’s holdings are diverse, one characteristic our companies generally share is a distinctive theme, or approach to their business, that sets them apart from the run of the mill. We have found that this attribute, along with a sustainable competitive advantage, can play a large role in determining whether a company can maintain a healthy pace of earnings growth.
One weak note in the portfolio was CBeyond, Inc., a provider of telecommunication services to small businesses. The company has suffered from competitive pressure, as cable companies seeking to expand beyond the consumer sphere have increasingly targeted this segment as well. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
OUTLOOK
We anticipate that in the coming months, earnings growth will be more difficult to come by. In this environment, investors are likely to become more selective, and we believe their focus will increasingly turn to high-quality growth stocks. This environment is likely to be positive for the kinds of stocks we emphasize.
Demand for equities appears poised to remain strong. There is about $3 trillion in cash still sitting on the investment sidelines. We’re also somewhat encouraged by the outlook for earnings growth. After an extended period of cautious spending and hoarding cash, corporate balance sheets appear strong, and ready to support business spending.
As companies that offer the kind of earnings growth we seek become more expensive, we recognize that we will need to pay particular attention to valuations, and trim or even eliminate positions that have become too richly valued.

WASATCH-1ST SOURCE INCOME EQUITY FUND (FMIEX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch-1st Source Income Equity Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Ralph Shive and Michael Shinnick.
Ralph C. Shive, CFA Portfolio Manager |
Michael L. Shinnick Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Wasatch-1st Source Income Equity Fund returned 4.34% in the first quarter of 2010 and lagged the Russell 1000 Value Index, which returned 6.78%. The quarter saw two important |
developments: the tightening by China of bank reserve requirements in response to inflation concerns and real estate speculation, and the deteriorating financial condition of Greece with concomitant complications for its European partners.
One issue during the quarter was lackluster stock selection in most sectors, with the exception of energy where we were quite strong. A headwind was provided by the China and Greece situations, which stirred a dollar rally that hurt two of our favorite sectors, information technology and materials. We are not concerned about the dollar rally on a long-term basis, and both sectors were performing well in the latter part of the quarter. In addition, our underweight in banks, especially commercial banks, which had a huge first quarter rally, hurt performance relative to the Index. This is of greater concern as the Fed policy of zero cost funding is giving banks and investment banks great opportunities for profits to cover last cycle’s write offs. This condition may persist into 2011, which would be longer than our original expectation. As we speak, Congress is reviewing the 2008 financial crisis and potential legislation is being considered to alleviate future wealth destruction and taxpayer liability. It appears the trend is in the direction of modest remediation. We would vote for Transparency, Transparency, Transparency.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
Stocks that helped returns in the first quarter included MetLife in the financials sector as the company’s balance sheet strengthened and confidence was regained with respect to future profitability. Johnson Controls in the automotive sector saw volumes rebound dramatically from the severe conditions of last year. Although Nokia has been under the cloud of Apple taking headlines on creative product innovation, it still garners large market share in smart phones in emerging markets, and investors recognized this over the first quarter. In the industrials space, which was quite strong, Parker Hannifin, a diversified industrial producer in a variety of industries, saw strong price appreciation.
The only real disappointment was H&R Block, which pre-announced that tax-return activity would be well below expectations. High unemployment and online software seem to be nibbling at their customer base.
The only strategic move in the quarter was to increase our energy exposure through the addition of three new holdings. Exxon Mobil is a large integrated firm that we feel has strong cash flow generation and the potential for growing earnings and dividend increases over the next several years. Transocean Ltd. is a stock formerly held in the Fund that we sold some quarters ago. When the company recently announced it was reinstating a dividend we purchased the stock again. We like the offshore drilling space and believe the company has strong cash flow looking out several years and good industry supply/demand dynamics. A more aggressive name in this space is Ultra Petroleum, which does not pay a dividend and sports a relatively high valuation. The company has growing reserves of natural gas, and we expect that over time the benefits of a domestic source of clean energy will be a compelling driver of value creation. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
In keeping with our investment style, we were pleased to see many companies in the Fund return to raising their dividends after a 2009 that saw the most decreases in dividends since the 1930s.
OUTLOOK
There is growing evidence that the economic recovery is in motion, however frustratingly slow it may be. We acknowledge that stock prices have anticipated much of the recovery and are concerned that we may see a consumer spending double dip, as employment growth remains extremely sluggish. One data point we are following closely is disposable personal income growth. We expect it will be slow relative to past cycles, partly hurt by rising taxes across many sectors of the economy. We expect that the “federal governmentalization” of America will most likely portend slower growth. We would like to see a shift from the current bailout policies toward policies benefiting savings and investment. It’s possible that the upcoming election cycle will spur a healthy debate about these contrasting trends. One of the more positive conditions is that publicly traded corporations appear to be in strong financial condition. We think that creates an environment where we can make money in stocks, and we would expect earnings and dividend growth in most of the stock positions we hold.
The Fund is nearly fully invested under strategies emphasizing strong dividend yields,* attractive valuations and earnings growth** potential. Our goal remains to provide investors with significant participation in market rallies, along with returns that hold up relatively well during market corrections. We take the responsibility of managing the Fund very seriously.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

WASATCH-1ST SOURCE LONG/SHORT FUND (FMLSX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
The Wasatch-1st Source Long/Short Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers led by Michael Shinnick and Ralph Shive.
Michael L. Shinnick Portfolio Manager |
Ralph C. Shive, CFA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
While the Fund lagged the S&P 500 for the quarter, we are pleased that it continues to offer a very strong risk-adjusted return profile and that performance has significantly exceeded the |
benchmark over the trailing three- and five-year periods.
Markets were choppy early on, yet stocks continued their advance over the three months, as investors focused on signs of improvement in economic conditions as well as in corporate earnings. Our discipline helped moderate the impact of volatility in January and February, while allowing the Fund to participate modestly as the market turned strongly upward in March. Long holdings within information technology, energy and health care added to performance. The Fund’s short positions constrained performance in absolute terms, given a rising market, and due to the stocks we selected.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
We generally start by looking to identify sectors of the economy that are positioned to outperform over time based on some trend we have identified. Then we look at companies that fall under that theme and seek to identify those that are attractively valued and have good fundamentals. In choosing which companies to sell short, we look for industries where trends are moving against them and companies within those industries that are particularly vulnerable.
Among long positions, several technology companies related to the theme of “cloud computing” added significantly to performance. Cloud computing is an evolving information delivery paradigm for enabling timely, global and scalable access to a shared pool of flexibly configured computing resources. Fund holdings involved in this theme include TIBCO Software, Inc., Silicon Graphics International Corp., Akamai Technologies, Inc. and Novell, Inc.
We also had a significant contribution from Symmetry Medical, Inc., a strategic supplier of implants, tools and kits used in orthopedic procedures. Symmetry has been a portfolio laggard in recent quarters, though our investment thesis is playing out as the company maintained profitability on declining volumes and is poised to participate strongly in a rebound of the sector.
Finally, stock selection within energy was another source of positive performance. The offshore drilling theme received positive attention from investors late in the quarter.
On the downside, one of our largest energy holdings, Devon Energy Corp., suffered from investors’ reaction to its
announced sale of offshore properties. Devon should receive a premium price for the properties, and we added to our position in the belief that the sale will have a positive impact on shareholder value over the next couple of years. We remain confident in the company’s strategic direction and are comfortable with our increased position size.
Another detractor was a new position, Brocade Communications Systems, Inc. Brocade has a longstanding storage area network business that represents a tremendous core asset, and we view the company as attractively priced in relation to its balance sheet and earnings potential. However, the company provided guidance during the quarter that a recently acquired networking business was underperforming. Our view is that if Brocade is not successful in integrating the two businesses, a larger acquiring company will find a way to realize value in excess of the current market valuation. Current and future holdings are subject to risk.
We continue to hedge the portfolio through the use of both short positions and writing calls against long positions. The Fund’s short positions as a group did not help performance as the market rose in March. However, losses due to this strategy were limited by our disciplined covering of short positions. In addition, we increased the writing of covered calls in the Fund and this provided a source of incremental return. While market volatility in recent months has been low overall, it has been possible to earn attractive premium income in the more volatile information technology, energy and materials sectors, and we will continue to use covered call writing to generate income and provide the potential for additional downside protection.
OUTLOOK
We intend to remain flexible while protecting shareholder capital. We believe the economic recovery will become more widespread in 2010, but also that the major risks have largely been deferred rather than eliminated. We will continue to invest in companies with strong business models, balance sheets and free cash flow. We will remain selective in shorting stocks and not allow short positions to become too extended. Our watch list for shorting continues to grow, as we see a leveraged financials sector with unresolved challenges and consumers battling unemployment, declining wages and large household debt service obligations.
Our largest holdings represent companies we believe have defensive characteristics such as low-cost retailer Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and business technology firm Oracle Corp. We are looking for companies that have the potential to grow and make money in a variety of economic conditions.
The Fund continues to be net long, with more than 60% net market exposure. We would not expect to shift this ratio unless we see signs that the recovery is faltering or failing.
Protecting capital and delivering positive returns in a variety of market conditions remain important elements of the Fund’s strategy. We appreciate your support and look forward to helping you protect, grow and compound your assets for many years to come.
Thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets.

WASATCH-HOISINGTON U.S. TREASURY FUND (WHOSX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
Van R. Hoisington Portfolio Manager | DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
Long-term Treasury bond yields were essentially unchanged over the first quarter of 2010, resulting in flat performance for the Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury Fund. The Barclays Aggregate Bond Index, with a shorter duration than the Fund, had a positive return for the quarter and the past 12 months due to the continuing contraction in yield spreads in lower quality issues. This near record low in |
credit spreads, however, has not affected the long-term results of the Fund. The Fund’s average annual return over the past 10 years beat the Index by 0.49 percentage points.
OUTLOOK
The normal reaction to a massive increase in government spending is to assume that it will bring inflation, particularly in the U.S. where amounts have been so large over the past 10 years. Spending has shifted from 18.4% of gross domestic product (GDP)* in 2000 to 24.7% today and the results are unequivocal. Inflation today is 1.3% versus 1.7% 10 years ago as measured by the core PCE deflator.** The percent of the population working today is 58.6% while prior to the large budget deficit spending of the last 10 years it was 64.6%. GDP in the U.S. was growing at 4.8% a decade ago, and today the country is staggering out of recession.
Thus, contrary to conventional wisdom, monumental government spending produced less growth, and lowered standards of living and inflation. We can understand this through the application of mathematics to economic theory.
David Ricardo (1772–1823) initially spelled out the role of fiscal policy influences on economic activity in what is termed “Ricardian equivalence.” He was a seminal thinker who also originated the concepts of “comparative advantage” and “diminishing returns.” The point of Ricardian equivalence is that it doesn’t matter whether governments fund expenditures by taxing or borrowing. Either way resources are shifted from the private sector to the government sector. Thus, an increase in government spending does not increase the economic pie (real GDP); it merely shifts the distribution of the pie, with the government taking more and the private sector having less.
In 1936, John Maynard Keynes (1883–1946) rejected Ricardo, arguing that deficit spending could increase economic activity. Keynes views have been taught to economics students for most of the past five decades. Importantly, neither Ricardo nor Keynes could know whether their views were right or wrong given the mathematical and statistical technology and data availability of the day.
Now there is credible research employing sophisticated econometric techniques that confirms that Ricardo, not Keynes, is correct. The Harvard economist Robert Barro, from whom the term “Barro Ricardian Equivalence” has risen, as well as the Italian econometrician Roberto Perotti found that the government expenditure multiplier is very close to zero. A zero government expenditure multiplier means that deficit spending only provides a transitory boost
to the economy. Deficit spending initially raises GDP, but then the effect dissipates and later is reversed as the financial resources available to the private sector are reduced. The econometric calculations indicate that each $1 increase in government expenditures will, over time, reduce private expenditures by $1. The distribution of the pie is impacted (i.e., government is larger and the private sector is smaller) but its overall size is not affected, just as stated in Ricardo’s equivalence theorem.
Valerie A. Ramey, Professor of Economics at the University of California at Berkeley has found that the expenditure multiplier is in a range of 0.6 to 1.1, or an average of 0.85. Once again this suggests some boost to overall economic activity from government spending at the expense of the private sector. The estimates of the multipliers vary due to different sample periods and other technical considerations. The objective is to identify the effects of government spending on economic activity while over time a host of other influences are also at work. The center of the estimates of the spending multiplier, however, is less than one, while the center of estimates for the tax multiplier,† our next topic, is greater than one. Consequently, we believe economic conditions will ultimately deteriorate in response to the current fiscal policy mix.
Beginning January 1, 2011, the sizeable tax reductions enacted in 2001 and 2002 will expire. The administration projects that household taxes will rise by a cumulative $1.1 trillion over the ensuing 10-year period, while business taxes will rise by $400 billion. This calculation was prior to any taxes enacted in the health care bill, and does not account for other taxes such as the recently mentioned value added tax suggested by administration policy advisors. Dr. Barro estimates that the tax multiplier is minus 1.1, meaning that a $1 increase in taxes will reduce GDP by $1.10. However, Christina Romer, Chair of the Council of Economic Advisors and her husband David in an exhaustive study published in March 2007 found the tax multiplier to be minus 3.0. Bottom line, if the spending multiplier is 0.6 and the tax multiplier is minus 1.1 or more, then mathematically this country cannot spend its way to prosperity.
With excessive levels of debt and what we believe is the wrong fiscal policy mix, inflation will continue to moderate, thereby driving long-term treasury yields lower. The path to lower rates will not be smooth, as volatility will arise from heavy sales of U.S. government debt and occasional transitory improvements in economic activity. However, patient investors in long-term U.S. Treasury bonds such as those held by the Fund have the potential to be rewarded.

WASATCH-1ST SOURCE INCOME FUND (FMEQX) — Management Discussion | MARCH 31, 2010 | |
Paul W. Gifford, CFA Portfolio Manager | OVERVIEW
The Wasatch-1st Source Income Fund returned 1.36% during the first quarter of 2010. Over the same time period the Barclays Capital U.S. Intermediate Government/Credit Bond Index returned 1.54%. Spreads versus Treasuries on almost all corporate, agency and asset- or mortgage-backed securities came in (tightened). As a result, the Fund’s holdings performed better than Treasuries. |
Yields on Treasury bonds traded between 3.6% and 3.8%. By quarter-end the yield punched through 3.8% to 3.87%, its highest point since mid 2009. Most of the increase occurred during the final few weeks of the period as the U.S. Treasury continued to issue billions of dollars worth of bonds each week.
The Federal Reserve’s program of buying government bonds, which has helped to keep interest rates low, ceased in March, but may resume sometime down the road if economic conditions deteriorate.
The Fed completed its treasury purchases in October and has decreased agency purchases this year. The Fed indicated it intends to hold the securities for sometime which will allow the normal principal repayment mechanism inherent in agency mortgage-backed securities to essentially liquidate these positions over time.
DETAILSOFTHE QUARTER
The economy has been producing some very agreeable statistics that have been bolstering asset prices. The news is dramatically better than it was a mere 12 months ago. At that time, the world’s stock and bond markets reached the bottom after the credit crunch drove the global economy off a cliff. In the U.S., gross domestic product (GDP)* growth officially started to rise in the third quarter of 2009, aided by “cash for clunkers”** activity. While we have seen improvement in the economy, we still have a way to go to regain what was lost during the “Great Recession.”
The strength of economic data has generally surprised economists and, to a certain extent, us as well. The Blue Chip Financial Forecast as late as January 2010 predicted only 3.0% growth and no single forecast was above 4.5%. Yet preliminary data came in at nearly twice the average forecast at 5.6%. One of the largest factors was inventory rebuilding. Many firms had slashed inventories to levels well below the already reduced rate of sales they were experiencing.
Many of our clients and associates tell us that they haven’t really seen or felt the recovery. Due to implosion in certain parts of the domestic economy, some have not seen any improvement and continue to feel like they are treading water. The auto industry is an example. Data from J.D. Power and Associates showed that in 2009 U.S. auto sales, which had been above 15 million cars per year over the last decade, dropped below 11 million cars.
Over the coming years, sectors that declined the most may be solid contributors to economic growth and corporate earnings. A return to annualized auto sales of 15 million (a number that would be required to merely maintain the
current car-to-driver ratio) over the next five years would equate to an annual growth rate of 6.4%. This would powerfully propel corporate earnings in the auto industry.
Earnings reports, which have been relatively positive, should continue to be on the upswing for several more quarters. Cost cutting measures would allow even modest revenue growth to magnify profit margins. Strong earnings will eventually lead to increased hiring and slowly but surely lower unemployment. Lower unemployment would help us all “see” the economic recovery firsthand.
OUTLOOK
The first quarter of 2010 could be considered relatively quiet on the fixed income front. The largest issue for the market to digest was the credit issues in Greece. The market handled it well, but there is growing concern surrounding sovereign indebtedness. Greece will only be the first country we read about and the U.S will be included given our large deficits and existing debt.
During the quarter, the Fund continued to add modest amounts of credit exposure. We purchased several preferred stocks with yields in excess of 6.5% (Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase & Co.). Increased stability and profitability of financial companies and banks led us to add to our corporate bond investments including JPMorgan, GE and PACCAR Financial Corp.
The other major strategy was to take advantage of the yield curve. We find the pickup in yield due to a modest lengthening of maturities rather compelling. We sold government agency bonds† maturing in three years and replaced them with issues maturing in five years and increased the yield by 1.6%. In another trade, we sold credit card asset backed bonds maturing in one year and bought a three-year maturity bond increasing the yield by 1.90%. We extended maturities in JPMorgan corporate bonds†† by two years and increased the yield by 2.4%. There are more opportunities like this but given our view that rates will be rising, we want to do this over time.
A modest increase in interest rates seems likely in the coming months as economic activity picks up. In light of this belief, we have maintained a shorter duration in the portfolio than the benchmark, even with the trades listed above.

WASATCH FUNDS — OPERATING EXPENSES | ||
EXPENSE EXAMPLE
As a shareholder of Wasatch Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Wasatch Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six month period ended March 31, 2010.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses, based upon the actual total return of the fund during the most recent six month period ended March 31. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses 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 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
In addition, the Funds charge a $15.00 IRA distribution fee, a $12.50 IRA annual maintenance fee and a $15.00 fee for redemptions paid by wire. To the extent these fees apply to your account, your expenses paid during the period would be higher and your ending account value would be lower than the amounts shown in the table below.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLEFOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate
of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Wasatch Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
In addition, the Funds charge a $15.00 IRA distribution fee, a $12.50 IRA annual maintenance fee and a $15.00 fee for redemptions paid by wire. To the extent these fees apply to your account, your expenses paid during the period would be higher and your ending account value would be lower than the amounts shown in the table below. If another fund’s fees differ from those listed above, your expenses paid and your ending account value could be higher or lower than those of 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 redemption fees. Therefore, the second line 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.
A Fund’s annualized expense ratio may vary as a result of various factors including expenses that are not reimbursable under the contractual agreement between the Fund and the Advisor such as interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, other investment related costs, dividend expense on short sales, and extraordinary expenses. The Wasatch-1st Source Long/Short and Wasatch-1st Source Income funds have no contractual limitation on expenses.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant policies related to investments of the Funds held at March 31, 2010.
Valuation of Securities — Securities are valued as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued using a commercial pricing service at the last quoted sales price taken from the primary market in which each security trades and, with respect to equity securities traded on NASDAQ, such securities are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”) or last sales price if no NOCP is available. If there are no sales on the primary exchange or market on a given day, then the security is valued at the most recent bid price on the primary exchange or market as provided by a pricing service. Debt securities (other than short-term instruments) are valued at current market value by a commercial pricing service, or by using the last sale or bid price. Short term securities, which mature in 60 days or less at time of purchase, are generally valued at amortized cost, unless it is determined that the amortized cost method would not represent fair value, in which case the securities are marked to market. Exchange-traded options are valued at the last sale price in the market where they are principally traded. If there are no sales on the primary exchange or market on a given day, then the option is valued at the most recent bid price on the primary exchange or market as provided by a pricing service. If market quotations are not readily available for the Funds’ investments in securities such as restricted securities, private placements, securities for which trading has been halted or other illiquid securities, these investments are valued at fair value in accordance with Board-approved Pricing Policies and Procedures by the Joint Pricing Committee of the Advisor and the Funds (“Pricing Committee”) with oversight by the Board of Trustees. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. For each applicable investment that is fair valued, the Pricing Committee considers, to the extent applicable, various factors including, but not limited to, the financial condition of the company or limited partnership, operating results, prices paid in follow-on rounds,
119

comparable companies in the public market, the nature and duration of the restrictions for holding the securities, and other relevant factors.
Additionally, a Fund’s investments are valued at fair value by the Pricing Committee if the Advisor determines that an event impacting the value of an investment occurred between the closing time of a security’s primary market or exchange (for example, a foreign exchange or market) and the time the Fund’s share price is calculated. Significant events include, but are not limited to the following: significant fluctuations in domestic markets, foreign markets or foreign currencies; occurrences not directly tied to the securities markets such as natural disasters, armed conflicts or significant governmental actions; and major announcements affecting a single issuer or an entire market or market sector. In responding to a significant event, the Pricing Committee determines the fair value of affected securities by considering factors including, but not limited to: index options and futures traded subsequent to the close; American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”) or other related receipts; currency spot or forward markets that trade after pricing of the foreign exchange; other derivative securities traded after the close such as Standard & Poor’s Depositary Receipts (“SPDRs”) and other exchange traded funds (“ETFs”); and alternative market quotes on the affected securities. When applicable, the Funds use a systematic fair valuation model provided by an independent third party to assist in adjusting the valuation of foreign securities.
As of March 31, 2010, the aggregate amount of fair valued securities, excluding any foreign securities fair valued pursuant to a systematic fair valuation model, as a percentage of net assets for the Funds was as follows:
Core Growth Fund | 1.67 | % | |
Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund | <0.01 | % | |

Foreign Currency Translations — Values of investments denominated in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates each business day. Purchases and sales of investments and dividend income are translated into U.S. dollars using the current prevailing exchange rate on the transaction date. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on realized and unrealized gains or losses on securities is reflected as a component of such gains or losses in the Statement of Operations. Transactions in foreign denominated assets may involve greater risks than domestic transactions.
At March 31, 2010, the foreign currencies held by the Funds were as follows (amounts in U.S. dollars):

Foreign Currency Contracts — The Funds may enter into foreign currency contracts to settle planned purchases or sales of securities or to protect against a possible loss resulting from the adverse change in the relationship between the U.S. dollar and a foreign currency involved in an underlying
120
Table of Contents

transaction. Foreign currency contracts are agreements between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a foreign currency contract fluctuates with changes in currency exchange rates. Foreign currency contracts are marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by a Fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When a foreign currency contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, a Fund could be exposed to a credit risk if a counterparty is unable or unwilling to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably. In connection with these contracts, the Funds may segregate cash and/or securities in a sufficient amount as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective contracts.
Investment in Securities and Related Investment Income — Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains or losses on securities sold are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date except that certain dividends from foreign securities may be recorded after the ex-dividend date based on when the Fund is informed of the dividend. Interest income and estimated expenses are accrued daily. Bond discount and premiums are amortized using the interest method. To the extent dividends received from Real Estate Investment Trust securities include return of capital distributions; such distributions are recorded as income, and adjusted accordingly for tax purposes.
Short Sales — To a limited extent, the Equity Funds may enter into short sales whereby a fund sells a security it generally does not own (the security is borrowed), in anticipation of a decline in the security’s price. The initial amount of a short sale is recorded as a liability which is marked to market daily. Fluctuations in the value of the short liability are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. If a fund shorts a security when also holding a long position in the security (a “short against the box”), as the security’s price declines, the short position increases in value, offsetting the long position’s decrease in value. The opposite effect occurs if the security’s price rises. A Fund realizes a gain or loss upon closing of the short sale (returning the security to the counterparty by way of purchase or delivery of a long position owned). Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested. The Funds are liable to the buyer for any dividends payable on securities while those securities are in a short position. These dividends are an expense of the Funds. The Funds designate collateral consisting of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid assets sufficient to collateralize the market value of short positions.
Options Transactions — The Equity Funds and the Wasatch-1st Source Income Fund may buy and sell put and call options, write covered put and call options, including over-the-counter options, on portfolio securities where the
completion of the obligation is dependent upon the credit standing of another party. Options are a type of derivative financial instrument. The funds may invest in derivative financial instruments, including options, in order to manage risk or gain exposure to various other investments or markets. The risk in writing a call option is that a Fund gives up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases. The risk in writing a put option is that a Fund may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that a Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. A Fund also has the additional risk of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist. Option contracts are valued daily and unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded. A Fund will realize a gain or loss upon expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a written put option, or the cost of a security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. The Funds designate collateral consisting of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid assets sufficient to collateralize the market value of written options.
Repurchase Agreements — The Funds may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a fund takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase and the fund to resell the obligation at an agreed upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be at least equal at all times to the total amount of the repurchase obligation, including interest. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the fund has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred.
Federal Income Taxes — It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all taxable income to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise taxes has been made.
Expenses — The Funds contract for various services mostly on a collective basis. Most expenses are directly attributable to each Fund and therefore are charged accordingly. Expenses that are not directly attributable to one or more Funds are allocated among applicable Funds on an equitable and consistent basis considering such things as the nature and type of expense and the relative net assets of the Funds.
Use of Management Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported changes in net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications — In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure
121

under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, however, the risk of loss is expected to be remote.
Redemption Fees — The Funds deduct a fee of 2.00% from redemption proceeds on shares of the Funds held 60 days or less. Redemption fees retained by the Funds are credited to additional paid-in capital.
3. DISTRIBUTIONS
Dividends from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually for all Funds, except for dividends from net investment income in five funds. The Wasatch-1st Source Income Fund declares and pays dividends monthly. The Strategic Income,
Wasatch-1st Source Income Equity, Wasatch-1st Source Long/Short, and U.S. Treasury Funds declare and pay dividends quarterly. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. The Funds may utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction (tax equalization).
To the extent these book and tax differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified at the end of the fiscal year among paid-in capital in excess of par value, undistributed net investment income (loss), and undistributed net realized gains (losses) on investments and foreign currency translations.

9. PURCHASE COMMITMENTS
In September 2003, the Global Science & Technology, Small Cap Growth and Ultra Growth Funds entered into subscription agreements to acquire limited partnership interests in Montagu Newhall Global Partners II-B, L.P. The remaining commitment amounts at March 31, 2010 were $80,000, $800,000 and $720,000, respectively. Securities held by the Funds have been designated to meet these purchase commitments.
In December 2005, the Small Cap Growth and Ultra Growth Funds entered into subscription agreements to acquire limited partnership interests in Montagu Newhall Global Partners III-B, L.P. The remaining commitment amounts at March 31, 2010 were $525,000 per Fund. Securities held by the Funds have been designated to meet these purchase commitments.
10. LINEOF CREDIT
The Equity Funds opened two lines of credit totaling $75,000,000, one of which is $25,000,000 uncommitted, and the other of which is $50,000,000 committed, with State Street Bank and Trust Company on June 4, 2007 (together, the “Line”). The Line is for temporary or emergency purposes such as to provide liquidity for shareholder redemptions. The Equity Funds incur commitment fees on the undrawn portion of the committed part of the Line, and interest expense to the extent of amounts drawn (borrowed) under the entire Line. Interest is based on the higher of (a) the Federal Funds rate as in effect on the date of borrowing, plus a margin, and (b) the overnight LIBOR rate as in effect on the date of borrowing, plus a margin. Commitment fees are pro-rated among the Equity Funds based upon relative average net assets. Interest expense is charged directly to the fund based upon actual amounts borrowed by the fund.
For the six months ended March 31, 2010, the following Funds had borrowings:
Average Daily Borrowings | Number of Days Outstanding | Interest Expense | Weighted Average Annualized Interest Rate | Balance at March 31, 2010 | |||||||
International Growth | 262,286 | 7 | 60 | 1.17 | % | — | |||||
Ultra Growth | 1,186,118 | 34 | 1,315 | 1.17 | % | — |
11. PRINCIPAL RISKS
Market and Credit Risk — In the normal course of business the Funds trade financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit risk). Similar to credit risk, the Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an institution or other entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions will default. The potential loss could exceed the value of the financial assets recorded in the financial statements. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to credit risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties and investments. The extent of the Funds’ exposure to credit and counterparty risks in respect to these financial assets approximates their carrying value as recorded in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Inflation Risk — Inflation risk is the possibility that inflation will reduce the purchasing power of a currency, and subsequently reduce the value of a security or asset, and may result in rising interest rates. Inflation is the overall upward price movement of goods and services in an economy that causes the value of a dollar to decline.
Interest Rate Risk — Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. A rise in interest rates typically causes a fall in values. Interest rate risk should be modest for shorter-term securities, moderate for intermediate-term securities and high for longer-term securities. Generally, an increase in the average maturity of a Fund will make it more sensitive to interest rate risk. The interest rate is the amount charged, expressed as a percentage of principal, by a lender to a borrower for the use of assets.
Foreign Currency Risk — If a Fund invests directly in foreign currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, foreign currencies, or in derivatives that provide exposure to foreign currencies, it will be subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. This also includes the risk associated with higher transaction costs, delayed settlements, currency controls and adverse economic developments related to foreign investments.
Region Risk — The Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund, Global Opportunities Fund, Global Science & Technology Fund, International Growth Fund and International Opportunities Fund each invest in equity and fixed income securities of non-U.S. issuers. Although the Funds maintain a diversified investment portfolio, political or economic developments within a particular country or region may have an adverse effect on the ability of domiciled issuers to meet their obligations. Additionally, political or economic developments may have an adverse effect on the liquidity and volatility of portfolio securities and currency holdings.
Shareholder Concentration Risk — A significant portion of the net assets of the International Opportunities Fund is owned by a group of shareholders advised by a common investment advisor. If this group of shareholders simultaneously redeems on the advice of their investment advisor, Fund expenses may increase and performance may be materially affected.
12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The various inputs used in determining the fair value of the Funds’ investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
• | Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
• | Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
• | Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The valuation techniques used by the Funds to measure fair value for the period ended March 31, 2010 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs. The Funds utilized the following fair value techniques:
multi-dimensional relational pricing model and option adjusted spread pricing; the Funds estimated the price that would
have prevailed in a liquid market for an international equity security given information available at the time of evaluation.
The following is a summary of the fair valuations according to the inputs used as of March 31, 2010 in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities:

Liquidation of Wasatch Heritage Value Fund — On May 12, 2010, the Board of Trustees of the Wasatch Funds Trust (the “Board”) approved the termination of the Wasatch Heritage Value Fund (the “Fund”). Due to its small size and limited growth potential given market conditions, the Board has determined that it was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders that the Fund cease operations. Accordingly, on May 12, 2010, the Board approved a plan of liquidation for the Fund to close the Fund and redeem all of its outstanding shares on July 15, 2010.
Effective May 13, 2010, the Fund will no longer pursue its stated investment objectives. The Fund will begin liquidating its portfolio and may invest in repurchase agreements or other comparable high quality money market instruments or money market funds until all shares have been redeemed.

BOARD APPROVALFOR ADVISORY CONTRACTS
At a meeting held on November 19, 2009 (the “Meeting”), the Board of Directors of Wasatch Funds, Inc. (the “Company”), including the Independent Directors, unanimously approved the advisory and service contract (the “New Advisory Agreement”) between the Company and Wasatch Advisors, Inc. (the “Advisor”) on behalf of each of its series (collectively, the “Funds”); the sub-advisory agreement between the Advisor and Hoisington Investment Management Company (“HIMCO”) on behalf of the Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury Fund (the “U.S. Treasury Fund”); and the sub-advisory agreement between the Advisor and 1st Source Corporation Investment Advisors, Inc. (“1st Source”) on behalf of the Wasatch-1st Source Income Fund (the “Income Fund”). HIMCO and 1st Source hereafter are each a “Sub-Advisor” and their respective sub-advisory agreement with the Advisor are each a “New Sub-Advisory Agreement.” At the Meeting, the Board of Directors also approved the reorganization (the “Reorganization”) of the Company pursuant to which the Company would be reorganized from a Minnesota corporation to a newly created Massachusetts business trust named the Wasatch Funds Trust (the “Trust”), subject to shareholder approval. Each series of the Company would then be reorganized into a corresponding new series of the Trust. Accordingly, the Meeting was held in conjunction with the organization meeting of the Trust. The members of the Board of the Company are the same as the members on the Board of the Trust. At the organization meeting, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously approved the advisory and service contract between the Advisor and the Trust (the “Trust Advisory Agreement”); the sub-advisory agreement between HIMCO and the Advisor on behalf of U.S. Treasury Fund; and the sub-advisory agreement between 1st Source and the Advisor on behalf of the Income Fund (the foregoing sub-advisory agreements are collectively, the “Trust Sub-Advisory Agreements”). On March 11, 2010, shareholders approved the Reorganization and on March 31, 2010, the Company was reorganized into a Massachusetts business trust. As the Trust Advisory Agreement between the Advisor and Trust and the Trust Sub-Advisory Agreements between the Advisor and Sub-Advisors on behalf of the applicable series of the Trust are substantially similar to the corresponding New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements approved at the Meeting with respect to the Company, the considerations of the members of the Board for the approvals of the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements with respect to the Company and its series are equally applicable to the approvals of the Trust Advisory Agreement and Trust Sub-Advisory Agreements with respect to the Trust and its series.
Prior to the Meeting, the Independent Directors had been advised that WA Holdings, Inc. (“Wasatch”) intended to
140
Table of Contents
MARCH 31, 2010 (UNAUDITED) | ||
acquire Dr. Sam Stewart’s shares in Wasatch, the parent company of the Advisor (the “Transaction”). Dr. Stewart owned over 25% of the outstanding voting securities of Wasatch and therefore was presumably a controlling person of Wasatch. The Advisor provided the Funds (other than the Income Fund, Wasatch-1st Source Income Equity Fund and the Wasatch-1st Source Long/Short Fund (collectively, the “1st Source Funds”)) with investment advisory services under an Advisory and Service Agreement dated January 27, 1998 and provided the 1st Source Funds with investment advisory services under an Advisory and Service Agreement dated December 15, 2008 (each a “Prior Advisory Agreement” and collectively, the “Prior Advisory Agreements”). In addition, HIMCO provided sub-advisory services to the U.S. Treasury Fund pursuant to a Sub-Advisory Agreement dated June 21, 1996 (the “Prior HIMCO Sub-Advisory Agreement”). Similarly, 1st Source provided sub-advisory services to the Income Fund pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement dated December 15, 2008 (the “Prior 1st Source Sub-Advisory Agreement”). The foregoing sub-advisory agreements are each a “Prior Sub-Advisory Agreement” and collectively, the “Prior Sub-Advisory Agreements.”
Each of the foregoing advisory and sub-advisory agreements, as required by Section 15 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), provided for its automatic termination in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act). A change in control of the Advisor is deemed to be an assignment. The consummation of the Transaction may result in a change of control of the Advisor and, therefore, cause the automatic termination of each of the foregoing agreements. Accordingly, in anticipation of the Transaction, the Board considered whether it was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders to approve the New Advisory Agreement between the Advisor and the Company on behalf of the Funds; whether it was in the best interests of the U.S. Treasury Fund and its shareholders to approve a New Sub-Advisory Agreement between HIMCO and the Advisor on behalf of the U.S. Treasury Fund and whether it was in the best interests of the Income Fund and its shareholders to approve a New Sub-Advisory Agreement between 1st Source and the Advisor on behalf of the Income Fund to take effect immediately after shareholder approval of the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements. The 1940 Act also requires that the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements be approved by the respective Fund’s shareholders in order to become effective. To assure the continuity of investment advisory services to the Funds after the closing of the Transaction and before shareholder approval of the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Board also considered interim advisory agreements between the Advisor and Company on behalf of the respective Funds (the “Interim Advisory Agreements”), an interim sub-advisory agreement between the Advisor and HIMCO on behalf of the U.S. Treasury Fund and an interim sub-advisory agreement between the Advisor and 1st Source on behalf of the Income Fund (collectively, the “Interim Sub-Advisory Agreements”) to take effect upon the closing of the Transaction.
The Board of Directors had considered the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements at its meeting held on November 11, 2009 and continued its considerations at the Meeting (collectively, the “Board Meetings”). In preparation for their role in the evaluation of the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Independent Directors also met in Executive Sessions on November 2, 2009, November 10, 2009, November 11, 2009 and November 19, 2009. At these Board Meetings and Executive Sessions, they were joined by independent legal counsel. In advance of these Board Meetings, the Board and independent legal counsel received materials and other information which outlined, among other things:
• | the terms and conditions of the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements, including the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor; |
• | the organization and business operations of the Advisor and Sub-Advisors, including the experience of persons who have managed and who will manage the respective Fund; |
• | the profitability of the Advisor from serving as advisor to the respective Fund (plus profitability analysis for advisors to unaffiliated investment companies); |
• | the management fees of the Advisor, including comparisons of such fees with the management fees of comparable, unaffiliated funds prepared by an independent third party and the Advisor’s fees for other clients; |
• | the sub-advisory fees of each Sub-Advisor with respect to the U.S. Treasury Fund and Income Fund (including the respective Sub-Advisor’s fee schedule for other clients); |
• | the expenses of each Fund, including comparisons with the expense ratios of comparable, unaffiliated funds compiled by an independent third party; and |
• | the respective Fund’s past performance plus such Fund’s performance compared to funds of similar investment objectives compiled by independent third parties and with recognized benchmarks. |
In connection with their review of the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Independent Board Members, through their independent legal counsel, also requested in writing and received information regarding the proposed Transaction and its impact on the provision of services by the Advisor. The materials described, among other things:
• | the structure of the Transaction; |
• | the strategic plan for the Advisor following the Transaction, including succession plans for personnel; |
• | the governance structure for the Advisor following the Transaction; |
• | any anticipated changes in the operations of the Funds following the Transaction, including discussing the day-to-day management, infrastructure and advisory or other applicable services provided to the Funds; and |
• | any changes to senior management or key personnel who work on Fund related matters (including portfolio management and investment oversight); the continuing role of Dr. Stewart with the Advisor following the Transaction; and any retention or incentive arrangements for such persons. |

WASATCH FUNDS — Supplemental Information (continued) | ||
The Independent Directors also received from independent counsel a legal memorandum outlining, among other things, the duties of the Independent Directors under the 1940 Act, as well as the general principles of relevant state law in reviewing and approving advisory contracts, including with respect to a change of control; the requirements of the 1940 Act in such matters; an advisor’s fiduciary duty with respect to advisory agreements and compensation; the standards used by courts in determining whether investment company boards of directors have fulfilled their duties and factors to be considered by the Board in voting on advisory agreements.
During the Executive Sessions noted above, the Independent Directors had several meetings and deliberations with and without Advisor personnel present, and with the advice of legal counsel, regarding the proposed Transaction and the terms of the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements. During the Board Meetings and Executive Sessions, the Independent Directors considered, among other things, the terms of the proposed Transaction; the impact of the purchase of the shares of Wasatch from Dr. Stewart and other personnel on the Advisor’s cash flow; the impact, if any, of the Transaction on the services provided to the Funds; the compensation arrangements of Advisor personnel (including the distribution of equity ownership in Wasatch among various employees in conjunction with the Transaction); the general plans and intentions with respect to the Advisor (including with respect to management, employees, future growth prospects and succession planning); the costs associated with obtaining the necessary shareholder approvals; the services provided by the Advisor, including its research capabilities; Fund performance; the Advisor’s fees and profitability; economies of scale and breakpoints; the approach of closing Funds to investors; the expense limitation agreements; and soft dollars. The Independent Directors, in consultation with independent counsel, also reviewed the factors set out in judicial decisions and SEC directives relating to the approval of advisory contracts. The information provided for the Board Meetings supplements the information the Board receives throughout the year regarding a Fund’s performance, expense ratios, portfolio composition, trade execution and sales activity. In this regard, the Independent Directors have considered and recognized the challenging market conditions that have existed during recent times and have therefore considered the Funds’ performance in light of these market conditions.
As outlined in more detail below, the Independent Directors considered all factors they believed relevant with respect to the Funds, including the following: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Advisor and Sub-Advisors; (b) the investment performance of the respective Fund (as described in further detail in Section (B) below); (c) the profits to be realized by the Advisor from the relationship with the Fund; (d) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as a Fund grows; and (e) whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors. The Independent Directors also considered such factors in light of the pending Transaction and its impact, if any.
A. | NATURE, EXTENTAND QUALITYOF SERVICES |
In evaluating the nature, extent and quality of the Advisor’s and Sub-Advisors’ services, the Independent Directors reviewed information concerning the types of services (advisory and non-advisory or administrative services) that the Advisor and Sub-Advisors provide to the respective Fund; the performance record of the applicable Fund; and information describing the Advisor’s and Sub-Advisors’ organization and business, including the impact of the Transaction on the Advisor and its ability to perform its services following the Transaction. In connection with their service as Independent Directors of the Company, the Independent Directors also periodically have met with the Advisor’s and Sub-Advisors’ personnel and have evaluated their professional experience, qualifications and credentials as well as their investment approach and research process. Given the Independent Directors’ experience with the Funds, Advisor and Sub-Advisors, the Independent Directors were familiar with and have a good understanding of the organization, operations, investment philosophy and personnel of the Advisor and Sub-Advisors.
In connection with their review of the advisory services being provided, the Independent Directors considered the investment philosophy and investment mandates of each Fund and whether the Advisor and Sub-Advisors (as applicable) have performed consistently with such philosophy and mandates. While the Directors believe that the Advisor and Sub-Advisors have consistently applied their traditional investment philosophy and processes in managing the applicable Funds, the Directors also recognized the Advisor’s continual review of its research process in order to keep refining and improving its investment process, particularly in light of recent market conditions. The Independent Directors further recognized that the Advisor’s investment process and philosophy were not expected to change following the Transaction.
The Independent Directors also considered the expected impacted, if any, of the Transaction on the operations, organization and personnel of the Advisor. In this regard, the Independent Directors recognized the continuing role of Dr. Stewart with the Advisor who has contractually agreed to remain with the Advisor for at least three additional years. The Independent Directors also considered the recent changes in the capacities of certain Advisor personnel, including a new chief executive officer. The Independent Directors noted that the Transaction was not expected to modify the advisory services provided to the Funds. In this regard, the advisory services to be provided under the New Advisory Agreement are the same as provided by the Advisor under its Prior Advisory Agreement. The portfolio manager(s) of the respective Funds were expected to be the same following the Transaction. The Independent Directors recognized that the Transaction was, in part, the result of the Advisor’s succession planning providing other Advisor personnel with an equity ownership interest in the Advisor. Accordingly, in its review of the succession planning of the Advisor, the Independent Directors considered the compensation arrangements of the Advisor’s personnel (including the new distribution of equity shares in Wasatch), to
142
Table of Contents
MARCH 31, 2010 (UNAUDITED) | ||
evaluate the Advisor’s ability to attract and retain key employees (including portfolio managers), preserve stability over the long term and reward performance without providing an incentive for taking undue risks.
In addition to the foregoing, in light of the regulatory emphasis on compliance, in reviewing the services that have been provided to a Fund, the Independent Directors also considered the Advisor’s and Sub-Advisors’ compliance and regulatory history.
In their review of services, the Independent Directors also evaluated the quality of administrative or non-advisory services provided. The terms of the New Advisory Agreement provide that the Advisor shall administer the Company’s affairs to the extent requested by and subject to the supervision of the Board for the period and terms of the contract. In this regard, the Advisor provides business, administrative, compliance, marketing and other services required to operate the Funds, such as assistance with preparation and filing of regulatory and tax reports, preparation and distribution of prospectuses and shareholder reports, provision of information to Fund directors, analysis to ensure compliance with federal and state laws and regulations, valuation of portfolio securities, and oversight of the performance of the Funds’ service providers (e.g., administrator, fund accountant, transfer agent and custodian). The Advisor also pays for office space and facilities for each Fund. In reviewing the services provided, the Independent Directors noted that the Transaction was not expected to adversely affect the nature, quality or extent of these services provided by the Advisor.
With respect to the Sub-Advisors, it was noted that the Sub-Advisory Agreements are essentially agreements for portfolio management services only and the Sub-Advisors were not expected to supply other significant administrative services. In addition, the Transaction was not expected to modify the allocation of services between the Advisor and Sub-Advisors nor the services provided by the respective Sub-Advisor.
Based on their review, the Independent Directors found that, overall, the nature, extent and quality of services provided under the New Advisory Agreement and the New Sub-Advisory Agreements were satisfactory on behalf of each applicable Fund.
B. | THE INVESTMENT PERFORMANCEOFTHE FUNDS |
In evaluating each Fund’s performance, the Directors reviewed both short-term and long-term performance of each Fund relative to its peer group and relevant benchmarks. More specifically, the Independent Directors reviewed, among other things, materials reflecting the respective Fund’s historic performance for the quarter, one-, three-, five-, and 10-year periods ending September 30, 2009 (as applicable and the average annual return since inception for Funds with a shorter duration) compared to its respective benchmarks and unaffiliated funds in its investment category. Additionally, the Independent Directors reviewed a report prepared by an unaffiliated third party comparing the respective Fund’s total return for the one-, two-, three-, four-, five-, and 10-year periods ending
September 30, 2009 (as applicable) compared to the performance of unaffiliated funds with similar investment objectives or classifications (a “Peer Group”) and a benchmark (the “Benchmark”) for the prescribed periods. In addition, the Independent Directors received reports prepared by a second unaffiliated party, which generally included an analyst report on the respective Fund for the following Funds: Core Growth, Heritage Growth, Income Equity, International Growth, Micro Cap, Micro Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, Small Cap Value, and Ultra Growth. This information supplemented the performance information provided to the Board at each of its quarterly meetings as well as at other meetings or executive sessions during the year. Further, the Independent Directors also recognized the limitations on some of the usefulness of the performance comparison information as the closest Peer Group for a Fund may not adequately reflect the Wasatch Fund’s investment strategies and may be invested in sectors or industries in which the respective Fund has limited or no exposure. The Independent Directors further considered the performance of the Funds in the context of the volatile market conditions during recent times. As noted above, the Independent Directors also considered that the portfolio management personnel responsible for the management of the Funds’ portfolios were expected to continue to manage the portfolios following the completion of the Transaction. Based on their review and factoring in the severity of market turmoil in recent periods, the Independent Directors determined that each Fund’s investment performance over time had been satisfactory. In reaching this assessment, the Independent Directors considered that the Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund, Global Opportunities Fund and Heritage Value Fund are each relatively new funds with a performance history of two years or less available. Although short performance periods limit the ability to assess performance, such Funds outperformed their Benchmarks for the one-, two-year or since inception periods (as available). Similarly, the Micro Cap Value and Small Cap Growth Funds outperformed their Benchmarks during their performance history. With the exception of the four- and five-year periods for the Heritage Growth Fund and the two-year period for the International Opportunities Fund, such Funds outperformed their Benchmarks. The 1st Source Funds are new to the Wasatch family and with the exception of the one-year period ended September 30, 2009 for the Income Fund, such Funds outperformed their Benchmarks. Although the Ultra Growth and Core Growth Funds outperformed their Benchmarks over the 10-year period, the Independent Directors have recognized that these Funds had underperformed their Benchmarks during more recent periods. However, these Funds have now outperformed their Benchmarks for the one-year period ended September 30, 2009. Similarly, the International Growth Fund had been underperforming its Benchmark but outperformed it in the one-year ended September 30, 2009. Although the Micro Cap Fund outperformed its Benchmark over the 10-year period, the Fund has underperformed its Benchmark in more recent periods. In addition, the Strategic Income and Global Science & Technology Funds have
143
Table of Contents
WASATCH FUNDS — Supplemental Information (continued) | ||
underperformed their Benchmarks. However, during this period, the Board has met with management to review the performance of the Funds, including the foregoing Funds, the factors affecting performance, the investment process and philosophy, and investment strategies. As noted above, the Independent Directors recognized that the Advisor consistently reviews its investment process to refine and improve its process, including focusing more on larger positions and enhancing its shared research and collaborative culture among its more experienced investment personnel, and were satisfied with the initiatives taken.
C. | FEES, EXPENSESAND PROFITABILITY |
1. Fees and Expenses
The Independent Directors considered the fees of the Advisor and Sub-Advisors. In their evaluation of fees and expenses, the Independent Directors reviewed the Advisor’s management fees and expense ratios for each Fund in absolute terms as well as with comparisons of fees and expenses of funds with similar objectives. In this regard, the Independent Directors reviewed and considered, among other things, comparisons of the respective Fund’s actual management fees, total expenses (including and excluding 12b-1/non-12b-1 service fees), and non-management expenses (such as transfer agency, custodian, administrative and accounting fees) with those of unaffiliated funds in its Peer Group compiled by an independent third party. In this regard, the Independent Directors noted that the following Funds had advisory fees and/or total expense ratios below or near the median for its respective Peer Group (the Heritage Growth Fund, Heritage Value Fund, Small Cap Growth Fund (an advisory fee above the median but the actual total expenses were the same as or slightly above the median), the Strategic Income Fund and the Long/Short Fund (an advisory fee above the median but total expense ratio below or the same as the median). The remaining Funds have advisory and total expenses that were higher than the median of their Peer Group. In reviewing these fees, the Independent Directors considered that the following Funds also have generally good performance (the 1st Source Funds, U.S. Treasury Fund, Micro Cap Value Fund, International Opportunities Fund, Global Opportunities Fund and Emerging Markets Small Cap Fund) or generally good long-term ten-year performance (the Core Growth Fund, Micro Cap Fund, Small Cap Value Fund and Ultra Growth Fund). In addition, the Independent Directors recognized that the advisory fees and expense caps of the International Opportunities Fund, Micro Cap Fund, and Micro Cap Value Fund were reduced last year. With respect to the Global Opportunities Fund, the Independent Directors recognized the considerable experience of the portfolio manager.
In reviewing fees, the Independent Directors also considered the expense limitation agreement provided by the Advisor for the applicable Funds and the amounts the Advisor has reimbursed to the Funds for the last three fiscal years (if any) which effectively reduces the amount of advisory fees paid to the Advisor. As a result of the market declines in 2008 and 2009, the Independent Directors recognized that
the Advisor has been reimbursing various Funds for expenses pursuant to its expense limitation agreement. In this regard, the Advisor reimbursed certain expenses for the following Funds: Emerging Markets Small Cap, Global Opportunities, Global Science & Technology, Heritage Growth, Heritage Value, International Opportunities, Micro Cap Value, Strategic Income, Ultra Growth, U.S. Treasury, and Income Equity.
The Independent Directors noted that the fees under the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements were the same as the corresponding Prior Advisory Agreement and Prior Sub-Advisory Agreement, except for the sub-advisory fee of the Income Fund. With respect to the Income Fund, the Independent Directors noted that while the advisory fee remained the same under the New Advisory Agreement, the sub-advisory fee under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement was reduced, as described below. Accordingly, because the Advisor pays 1st Source the sub-advisory fee, the Advisor would retain a greater portion of the overall management fee of the Income Fund.
In addition to reviewing fees and expenses in absolute terms and in comparisons to peers, the Independent Directors recognized the Advisor’s research intensive investment approach and the related costs, including, in particular, the Advisor’s significant investment in its research personnel as well as its global research process to cover an international landscape (such as for Funds including the Emerging Markets Small Cap, Global Opportunities, Global Science & Technology, International Growth, and International Opportunities Funds). The Independent Directors also noted the Advisor’s continued investment philosophy to close a Fund to new and/or existing investors when necessary to preserve the integrity of a Fund’s investment strategy, particularly for Funds that primarily invest in smaller companies. Although all the Funds are currently open to investors, the Funds that have been closed to investors in the past include: Core Growth, Global Science & Technology, International Growth, International Opportunities, Micro Cap, Micro Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, Small Cap Value and Ultra Growth Funds. The Independent Directors recognized that this practice may result in the Advisor foregoing additional fees on a larger asset base and exposing the Advisor to reduced revenues from asset outflows. The Independent Directors seek to encourage the Advisor’s practice of closing Funds when necessary or appropriate to maintain or enhance performance. Given the foregoing factors, the Independent Directors determined that the current advisory fee levels were acceptable.
2. Fees Charged to Other Advisor and Sub-Advisor Clients
In reviewing fees, the Independent Directors also compared the advisory fees to the fees the Advisor assesses other types of clients, including institutional and high net worth separate accounts and a private investment company. Currently, the Advisor manages separate account client assets in styles similar to those used for certain Funds, including Core Growth, Emerging Markets Small Cap, Heritage Growth, International Growth, Micro Cap, Small Cap Growth, Small Cap Value, Ultra Growth and Income Equity Funds. With
144
Table of Contents
MARCH 31, 2010 (UNAUDITED) | ||
respect to separate accounts, the fees for these accounts are generally lower than the comparable Fund (except the fees are the same in the case of the Heritage Growth Fund). The Independent Directors considered the differences in the product types, including the services provided. In this regard, the Independent Directors have noted that the range of services provided to a Fund in managing and operating a registered investment company is more extensive than those provided to a separately managed account. The Advisor provides services to each Fund that extends beyond the portfolio management services provided to its separate account clients. As described in more detail above, these services include business, administrative, compliance, marketing and other services required to operate a Fund. Further, the Independent Directors recognized that each Fund operates in a highly regulated industry requiring extensive compliance. Such responsibilities generally are not required to the same extent for separate accounts. Accordingly, the Independent Directors determined that the nature and number of services provided to operate a Fund merit higher fees than those of separate accounts. Similarly, with respect to the private investment company, such company is not subject to the extensive regulatory scheme required of operating registered investment companies such as the Funds, and therefore the services required differ. In addition, the Independent Directors noted the advisory fee arrangement of the private investment company with the Advisor provides for a performance fee and therefore its fee structure differs significantly from that of the Funds.
In considering the fees of the Sub-Advisors for the Income Fund and U.S. Treasury Fund, the Independent Directors also considered the pricing schedule the respective Sub-Advisor charges for similar investment management services for other clients. In this regard, the sub-advisory fee for the U.S. Treasury Fund was at the lower end of the Sub-Advisor’s fee schedule. Similarly, the sub-advisory fee for the Income Fund was at the low end of fees 1st Source assesses for institutional accounts. In addition, as noted above, the Independent Directors recognized that although the overall advisory fee paid by the Income Fund remained the same, the sub-advisory fee to 1st Source was proposed to be reduced from 0.52% of average daily net assets to 0.28% of average daily net assets. Accordingly, the Advisor would retain a greater portion of the advisory fee paid by the Income Fund. The Independent Directors also noted that the sub-advisory fees were established through arm’s length negotiations between the Advisor and the Sub-Advisors which are unaffiliated with the Advisor.
3. Profitability of Advisor
The Independent Directors reviewed pro forma profitability information for the Advisor derived from its relationship with each Fund for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009. In reviewing profitability, the Independent Directors reviewed the methodology utilized to allocate revenue and expenses of the Advisor among the Funds. In considering profitability, the Independent Directors recognized the inherent limitations in determining profitability which may be affected by many factors, including the allocation of
expenses across multiple investment products served by the Advisor. The allocation of research and personnel expenses is also particularly difficult given the Advisor’s shared research culture. In addition, the Independent Directors noted that it is difficult to predict with any degree of certainty the impact of the Transaction on the Advisor’s profitability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Independent Directors considered the obligations of Wasatch to purchase the shares in Wasatch of Dr. Stewart and other personnel and the impact of this obligation on the Advisor’s cash flow.
In addition to reviewing the Advisor’s profitability, the Directors also reviewed the Advisor’s relative profitability compared to publicly available information concerning unaffiliated advisors. However, the Independent Directors recognized the difficulties in comparing the profitability of various advisors given that individual fund or product line profitability of other advisors generally is not publicly available and the profitability information that is available for certain advisors or management firms may not be representative of the industry and may be affected by numerous factors including the structure of the particular advisor, the types of funds managed, its business mix, expense allocations, and the advisor’s capital structure and cost of capital. The Independent Directors noted that the Advisor’s profitability is within a reasonable range compared to the peer group of unaffiliated advisors. Based on their review, the Independent Directors were satisfied that the Advisor’s level of profitability from its relationship with each Fund was not unreasonable in light of the services provided.
The Directors also noted that during the past year the Advisor’s revenues have shrunk significantly due to reductions in assets under management caused by the generally poor market for equities and shareholder withdrawal. The Directors also discussed the Advisor’s response to this reduction in revenue which included, among other things, reductions in administrative staff (but not reductions in research personnel) and significant salary freezes and reductions for Advisor employees. The Directors carefully considered the impact, if any, of these reductions on the Advisor’s profitability and on the respective Funds.
With respect to the Sub-Advisors, although a profitability analysis was not available, the Independent Directors received certain financial statements of the Sub-Advisors. Given that the Sub-Advisors’ fees are at the low end of their respective fee schedules, the fact that the sub-advisory fee is established through arm’s length negotiations, and the range of fees the Sub-Advisor assesses to other clients, the Independent Directors concluded that HIMCO’s and 1st Source’s profitability from its relationship with the U.S. Treasury Fund and Income Fund, respectively, is not unreasonable.
In addition to the above, the Independent Directors also considered that the Advisor benefits from soft dollar arrangements whereby it receives brokerage and research services from brokers that execute a Fund’s purchases and sales of securities, as described in further detail below.

D. | ECONOMIESOF SCALEAND WHETHER FEE LEVELS REFLECT THESE ECONOMIESOF SCALE |
In reviewing advisory fees, the Independent Directors recognized that the advisory fee schedules for the Funds do not contain breakpoints that reduce the fee rate on assets above certain levels. With respect to funds investing in small and micro cap companies (including the Emerging Markets Small Cap, International Opportunities, Micro Cap, Micro Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, Small Cap Value, Core Growth, Global Opportunities, International Growth and Ultra Growth Funds), the Independent Directors recognized that the economies of scale and profit potential that may be achieved may be limited. In this regard, the Independent Directors were aware that it is more difficult to replicate performance in the small and micro cap funds at larger asset sizes and therefore, as noted above, a Fund may be closed to new and/or existing shareholders from time to time. This practice enhances the Advisor’s focus on achieving performance by maintaining assets at levels it can effectively manage but may limit economies of scale derived from a larger asset base. The Independent Directors, as noted, also recognized that this practice may limit the Advisor’s profit potential from earning additional fees on a larger asset base and expose the Advisor to reduced revenues caused by asset outflows when Funds are closed to investors. The Independent Directors also noted the costs associated with the Advisor’s research intensive investment approach. With respect to the larger-cap Funds, the Independent Directors further recognized the Advisor’s position that to the extent economies of scale exist, the proposed level of advisory fee reflects such economies of scale. In addition, the Independent Directors recognized the reduction in assets under management of the Funds during the past year and the corresponding impact on the Advisor to reimburse fees pursuant to its expense limitation agreement discussed above. Considering the factors above, the Independent Directors concluded the absence of breakpoints was acceptable and that such economies as exist are adequately reflected in the Advisor’s fee structure.
E. | INDIRECT BENEFITS |
In evaluating fees, the Independent Directors also considered any indirect benefits or profits the Advisor or its affiliates may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. In this regard, the Independent Directors considered that the Advisor benefits from soft dollar arrangements pursuant to which it receives research from brokers that execute the applicable Fund’s brokerage transactions. The Advisor may receive soft dollar benefits from each Fund, subject to the exceptions noted below for the sub-advised Funds. The Independent Directors reviewed information regarding the soft dollar arrangements including, among other things, the commissions paid, the research credits earned and the services provided. Further, the Independent Directors at prior meetings have had extensive discussions regarding the soft dollar arrangements. The Independent Directors recognized that soft dollar arrangements provide benefits to the Advisor derived from a Fund’s transactions by obtaining research that it would otherwise have to acquire with hard dollars.
Accordingly, the Advisor’s profitability would be somewhat lower if it did not receive the research services pursuant to soft dollar arrangements. With respect to the Sub-Advisors, the Independent Directors recognized that HIMCO currently does not have soft dollar arrangements although 1st Source may benefit from soft dollar arrangements. The Independent Directors took these “fall out” benefits, if any, into account when reviewing the level of advisory or sub-advisory fees.
F. | APPROVALOF NEW ADVISORYAND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS |
The Independent Directors did not identify any single factor discussed previously as all-important or controlling. The Independent Directors, including a majority of Independent Directors, concluded that the terms of the New Advisory Agreement for each Fund, the New HIMCO Sub-Advisory Agreement for the U.S. Treasury Fund, and the New 1st Source Sub-Advisory Agreement for the Income Fund were fair and reasonable, that the Advisor’s and Sub-Advisors’ fees are reasonable in light of the services provided to the respective Fund, and that the New Advisory Agreement should be approved on behalf of each Fund and the New Sub-Advisory Agreements should be approved on behalf of the U.S. Treasury Fund and the Income Fund, respectively. With respect to the Trust, as noted above, because the Trust Advisory Agreement between the Trust and Advisor and the Trust Sub-Advisory Agreements between the Advisor and HIMCO and 1st Source on behalf of the applicable series of the Trust corresponding to the U.S. Treasury Fund and Income Fund were substantially similar to the New Advisory Agreement and applicable New Sub-Advisory Agreement approved with respect to the Company and its series, the considerations and findings of the Board with respect to the New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreements are equally applicable to the approval of the Trust Advisory Agreement with the Advisor and the Trust Sub-Advisory Agreements with 1st Source and HIMCO on behalf of the applicable series of the Trust.
APPROVALOF INTERIM AGREEMENTS
If necessary to ensure continuity of advisory services, the Interim Advisory Agreement and Interim Sub-Advisory Agreements will take effect upon the closing of the Transaction. The terms of the Interim Advisory Agreement and Interim Sub-Advisory Agreements are substantially identical to those of the corresponding Prior Advisory Agreement and Prior Sub-Advisory Agreements, respectively, except for the effective date, termination and escrow provisions required under applicable law. In light of the foregoing, the Board, including the Independent Directors, unanimously determined that the scope and quality of services to be provided to the Funds under the respective Interim Advisory Agreement and Interim Sub-Advisory Agreement are at least equivalent to the scope and quality of services provided under the applicable Prior Advisory Agreement and Prior Sub-Advisory Agreements.

WASATCH FUNDS — Guide to Understanding Financial Statements | ||
Wasatch Funds provides reports to shareholders twice a year. The annual report is for the Funds’ fiscal year which ends September 30. The semi-annual report is for the six months or period ending March 31. Additionally, the Funds’ schedules of investments for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year are available to shareholders as described on page 140. These reports provide shareholders with important information that will help them evaluate the management and performance of their investments. It is the desire of Wasatch Funds to help shareholders stay in tune with their investments. If you have any questions about the information in this report, a shareholder services representative will be happy to assist you when you call 800.551.1700.
SCHEDULEOF INVESTMENTS
The holdings of each Wasatch Fund are detailed in the “Schedule of Investments.” This section provides a snapshot of the securities each Fund was invested in on the last day of the reporting period. The Wasatch Equity Funds invest primarily in Common Stocks of companies which are grouped together by industry. The U.S. Treasury Fund invests primarily in U.S. Treasury securities. The Wasatch-1st Source Income Fund invests primarily in fixed income securities. The Equity Funds will typically have only minor holdings in Short-Term Investments. At times the Funds may take temporary defensive positions by increasing cash or holdings in Short-Term Investments. Please see the prospectus under “Additional Information about the Funds.”
STATEMENTSOF ASSETSAND LIABILITIES
These financial statements show the Assets and Liabilities of a Fund on the last day of the reporting period. A Fund’s Assets include the value of securities owned, amounts receivable for purchases of Fund shares (capital shares receivable), securities sold, interest and dividends, prepaid expenses and other assets. Liabilities are amounts owed for shareholder redemptions (capital shares payable), securities purchased, investment advisory fees and other expenses. Totaling up the assets and subtracting the liabilities results in a Fund’s Net Assets.
Net Assets consist of capital stock, paid-in capital in excess of par, undistributed net investment income or loss, undistributed net realized gain or loss on investments and net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments. Capital stock is stock authorized by a company’s charter and having par value, stated value or no par value. Par value is set by the company issuing the shares and has no relation to Net Asset Value. The par value of one share of each Wasatch Fund is $.01. Paid-in capital in excess of par is capital received from shareholders in exchange for Fund shares that exceeds the par value of the shares. For example, if you bought one share of a Fund for $10, $.01 would show as “Capital stock” on the books of the Fund, and $9.99 would be accounted for under “Paid-in capital in excess of par.” Undistributed net investment income or loss is the amount of net investment income or loss of a Fund since inception that has not been paid to shareholders as a dividend.
Undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments is the amount of net realized gains or losses generated by a Fund since inception that have not been distributed to shareholders in the form of a capital gain distribution. A gain or loss is realized when a security is sold by a Fund. Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments is the change in value from the purchase price of securities a Fund continues to hold.
The number of shares a Fund is authorized to sell can be found under Capital Stock, $.01 par value. Issued and outstanding indicates the number of shares owned by shareholders.
Net Asset Value (NAV), Redemption Price and Offering Price Per Share shows the value of one outstanding share of a Fund on the date of the report. A Fund’s share price (NAV) is calculated by dividing the value of all securities and other assets owned by a Fund, less the liabilities charged to that Fund, by the number of Fund shares outstanding. The share price is calculated at the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange on each day the Exchange is open for trading. Please see Wasatch Funds’ prospectus for more information about how share prices are calculated. Information about how the share price is affected by a Fund’s operation can be found under “Financial Highlights” on page 149.
STATEMENTSOF OPERATIONS
Statements of Operations show investment income and expenses for each Fund as well as realized gains or losses from securities sold and the appreciation or depreciation in the value of a Fund’s holdings during the reporting period.
Investment Income shows Interest and Dividends earned from interest-bearing and dividend-paying securities in a Fund’s portfolio.
Expenses show the various fees and expenses paid out of a Fund’s assets such as the fee paid to Wasatch Advisors, the Funds’ investment advisor. Additional fees include shareholder servicing, fund administration and accounting, custody of fund assets, federal and state registration, legal counsel, auditing and trustees’ fees. The Funds pay for printing and mailing statements, prospectuses, annual reports and semi-annual reports to shareholders.
Net Investment Income (Loss) is the amount of dividends and interest income earned on securities held by a Fund, less the Fund’s expenses.
Net realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency translations is the net gain or loss on securities a Fund has sold. Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments and foreign currency translations is the change in value of securities a Fund continues to hold.
Net gain (loss) on investments is the result of changes in the market value of securities a Fund has sold and securities it continues to hold.

Assets show the increase or decrease in a Fund’s net assets during the reporting period. Investment operations, dividends and capital share transactions affect a Fund’s net assets. Operations is a summary of the Statements of Operations. It includes investment income or loss, net realized gain or loss on investments and foreign currency translations a Fund has sold as well as appreciation or depreciation in the value of investments a Fund continues to hold.
Dividends are distributed by Wasatch Funds to sharehold-ers when Fund investments have earned income in excess of net expenses or when capital gains in excess of capital losses are realized from the sale of securities. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribu- tions. Each Fund is required by Internal Revenue Code regulations to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and capital gains to shareholders in order to retain its status as a “regulated investment company.”
Capital share transactions are any transactions involving shares of a Fund, including the selling of Fund shares, shares issued by a Fund to shareholders for the reinvestment of dividends, and share redemptions.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The Financial Highlights contain important historical operating information that you may find useful in making decisions or understanding the performance of your investment.
Net Asset Value (NAV) is defined under “Statements of Assets and Liabilities” on page 148. The difference between the Net asset value, beginning of period and the Net asset value, end of period in the Financial Highlights is the change in value of a Fund’s shares over the reporting period, but not its total return.
Income (loss) from investment operations shows how the share price was affected by a Fund’s operations on a per share basis. Net investment income (loss) is the per share
amount of dividends and interest income earned on securities held by a Fund, less the Fund’s expenses. Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on securities is the per share increase or decrease in the value of securities a Fund holds or has sold during the reporting period. Gains or (losses) are realized when securities are sold. Gains or (losses) are unrealized when securities increase or decrease in value but are not sold.
Distributions are the per share amount that a Fund paid to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains.
Total return is the percentage increase or decrease in the value of an investment over a stated period of time. A total return percentage includes both changes in unrealized and realized gains and income. For the purposes of calculating total return, it is assumed that dividends and distributions are reinvested at the share price on the ex-dividend date of the distribution. A FUND’S TOTAL RETURN CANNOT BE COMPUTED DIRECTLY FROM THE FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS.
Supplemental data and ratios are provided to help you better understand your investment. Net assets, end of period, are the net assets of a Fund on the reporting date. Ratio of expenses to average net assets shows the total of a Fund’s operating expenses divided by its average net assets for the stated period before and after waivers and reimbursements by the Advisor, if any. Ratio of net investment income to average net assets shows a Fund��s net investment income (loss) divided by its average net assets for the stated period before and after waivers and reimbursements by the Advisor, if any. Portfolio turnover rate measures a Fund’s buying and selling activity during the reporting period. It is computed by dividing total purchases or sales, whichever is less, by the average monthly market value of a Fund’s portfolio securities. This calculation does not include securities with a maturity date of less than 12 months.
