First American Funds Annual Report 2007 1
Arizona Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: maximum current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Arizona state income tax to the extent consistent with prudent investment risk
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Arizona Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.48% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.12%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.69%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Arizona Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 4.06%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.
Despite predictions to the contrary, yield spreads (i.e., differences in yield between lower-quality and higher-quality municipal bonds) did not appreciably widen out, and even tightened from time to time. This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds. Yield spreads on some corporate-backed municipal bonds did widen over concerns about private equity-led buyouts, potential leveraging of the balance sheet, and investment-portfolio losses related to sub-prime loans. It remains to be seen how much subprime worries seep into the pricing of “purer” municipal bonds.
While the volume of municipal bond new issue supply continued to set records, the distribution process in this market still takes time. The heavy volume can present opportunities for investors who cherry-pick among new issues and can afford to wait for demand to catch up with supply. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration was consistently long relative to the benchmark, increasing the fund’s sensitivity to interest-rate movements and helping relative performance. Due to the continued flattening of the municipal yield curve, the fund’s significant exposure to bonds with maturities longer than 15 years was a strong contributor to performance. Due to a lack of supply, it was difficult to add a significant quantity of higher-performing lower-quality bonds to the portfolio. To counter this, the fund selectively added out-of-state securities to be replaced as in-state lower-quality municipal bonds become available. While benefiting the fund in the past, an overweight in healthcare credits was not as significant a contributor to performance.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
Throughout the fiscal year, the fund’s duration was kept long relative to the benchmark to take advantage of interest rate movements. Since we believe most of the curve flattening is behind us, we will focus investments in the 10- to 20-year maturity range. The fund had an overweight in the healthcare sector, where high yields helped performance.

California Intermediate Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and California state income tax to the extent consistent with preservation of capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American California Intermediate Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.01% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 3.86%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman 7-Year Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.21%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper California Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 3.65%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.

The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration was somewhat longer than the benchmark’s for most of the fiscal year, which proved beneficial overall. The fund’s holdings in lower-rated higher-yielding bonds generally performed well due both to their higher income component and occasional narrowing of credit spreads. We believe that, for an intermediate single-state fund, the fund had an adequate weighting in such bonds to benefit relative performance against its peers.
Due to yield-curve flattening, bonds with longer maturities were the best performers, and the fund had an adequate weighting in bonds with maturities of 10 years or more to capture that advantage.
The fund engaged in a number of relative-value trading opportunities throughout the year. It was fairly active in the secondary market and sold a number of securities at relatively higher prices than those at which they were purchased, trying to take advantage of the heavy new issue volume in California and the inherent distribution inefficiencies of the municipal market.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
The fund’s duration was slightly longer than the benchmark at the end of the reporting period. Since we believed the majority of curve flattening was behind us, the fund has been generally laddered in structure, holding relatively equal amounts of securities in each maturity range. Healthcare was the largest sector in the portfolio, allowing us to take advantage of the high yields in this sector.

First American Funds Annual Report 2007 5
California Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: maximum current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and California state income tax to the extent consistent with prudent investment risk
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American California Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.78% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.62%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.69%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper California Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 4.27%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.
Despite predictions to the contrary, yield spreads (i.e., differences in yield between lower-quality and higher-quality municipal bonds) did not appreciably widen out, and even tightened from time to time. This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds. Yield spreads on some corporate-backed municipal bonds did widen over concerns about private equity-led buyouts, potential leveraging of the balance sheet, and investment-portfolio losses related to sub-prime loans. It remains to be seen how much subprime worries seep into the pricing of “purer” municipal bonds.
While the volume of municipal bond new issue supply continued to set records, the distribution process in this market still takes time. The heavy volume can present opportunities for investors who cherry-pick among new issues and can afford to wait for demand to catch up with supply. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration was slightly longer than the benchmark’s for most of the fiscal year, which proved beneficial overall. Due to yield-curve flattening, bonds with longer maturities were the best performers on the curve. Though the fund’s weightings in intermediate maturities may have mildly hindered performance over the past fiscal year, we believe they will benefit the fund going forward. The fund’s holdings in lower-rated higher-yielding bonds generally performed well due both to their higher income component and occasional narrowing of credit spreads. The fund did not have a high allocation to nonrated land-based “dirt” bonds, due to concern about housing markets and unappealing yield spreads available during the period.
The fund engaged in a number of relative-value trading opportunities throughout the year. The fund was active in the secondary market and sold a number of securities at relatively higher prices than those at which they were purchased, trying to take advantage of the heavy new issue volume in California and the inherent distribution inefficiencies of the municipal market.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
The fund’s duration was slightly longer than the benchmark at the end of the reporting period. Since we believed most curve flattening was behind us, we slightly overweighted the fund’s holdings in the 10- to 20-year maturity range in comparison to those in the 30-year range.

First American Funds Annual Report 2007 7
Colorado Intermediate Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Colorado state income tax to the extent consistent with preservation of capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Colorado Intermediate Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.28% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.21%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman 7-Year Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.21%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Other States Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 3.56%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.
Despite predictions to the contrary, yield spreads (i.e., differences in yield between lower-quality and higher-quality municipal bonds) did not appreciably widen out, and even tightened from time to time. This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds. Yield spreads on some corporate-backed municipal bonds did widen over concerns about private equity-led buyouts, potential leveraging of the balance sheet, and investment-portfolio losses related to sub-prime loans. It remains to be seen how much subprime worries seep into the pricing of “purer” municipal bonds.
While the volume of municipal bond new issue supply continued to set records, the distribution process in this market still takes time. The heavy volume can present opportunities for investors who cherry-pick among new issues and can afford to wait for demand to catch up with supply. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration ranged from neutral to slightly longer than the benchmark for most of the fiscal year. The fund’s holdings in lower-rated higher-yielding bonds generally performed well due both to their higher income component and occasional narrowing of credit spreads. We believe that, for an intermediate single-state fund, the fund had an adequate weighting in such bonds to benefit relative performance against its peers. We were able to add slightly to our lower-rated weightings when we saw value.
Due to yield-curve flattening, bonds with longer maturities were the best performers, and the fund had an adequate weighting in bonds with maturities of 10 years or more to reflect that fact.
The fund was also active in the secondary market and sold a number of securities at relatively higher prices than when purchased, trying to take advantage of the new issue volume and the inherent distribution inefficiencies of the municipal market.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
The fund’s duration was roughly neutral relative to the benchmark at the end of the reporting period. Since we believed the majority of curve flattening was behind us, the fund was generally laddered in structure, holding relatively equal amounts of securities in each maturity range.

Colorado Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: maximum current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Colorado state income tax to the extent consistent with prudent investment risk
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Colorado Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.39% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.13%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.69%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Colorado Municipal Debt Funds Category, was 4.10%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.

This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds. Yield spreads on some corporate-backed municipal bonds did widen over concerns about private equity-led buyouts, potential leveraging of the balance sheet, and investment-portfolio losses related to sub-prime loans. It remains to be seen how much subprime worries seep into the pricing of “purer” municipal bonds.

The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration was longer than the benchmark for most of the fiscal year, which proved beneficial to performance. Due to the flattening yield curve, municipal bonds with long maturities were the best-performing area of the curve. The fund maintained sufficient weightings in longer maturities to help performance.
The fund’s holdings in lower-rated higher-yielding bonds generally performed well due both to their higher income component and occasional narrowing of credit spreads. We were able to add somewhat to our lower-rated weightings when we saw value, and we believe the fund has satisfactory weightings in these types of bonds.
In order to achieve a somewhat greater allocation to high yielding credits, the fund held more than 10% in out-of-state lower-rated securities, which benefited performance. We will look to reposition these bonds with in-state alternatives when opportunities arise.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
The fund’s duration was long relative to the benchmark at the end of the fiscal year. Since we believed most curve flattening was behind us, we slightly overweighted the fund’s holdings in the 10- to 20-year maturity range in comparison to those in the 30-year range. The fund’s largest sector weighting was in healthcare (more than 15%), allowing us to take advantage of the high yields in this sector. Our exposure to lower-quality bonds increased during the fiscal year as these bonds generally outperformed higher quality.

Intermediate Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: current income that is exempt from federal income tax to the extent consistent with preservation of capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Intermediate Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.43% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.27%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman 7-Year Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.21%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 3.59%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.

This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds.

The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration was close to neutral relative to the benchmark for most of the past fiscal year. Lower-quality higher-yielding bonds outperformed high-grade bonds during the period. We believe the fund had a sufficient weighting in such bonds to help relative performance against other intermediate municipal bond funds. We added slightly to the nonrated bond allocation when we saw value.
Due to yield curve flattening, longer (10-plus year) maturities were the best-performing area of the curve. The fund had an adequate weighting in these maturities, which helped performance. Throughout the fiscal year we engaged in numerous day-to-day relative-value trading opportunities, trying to take advantage of the heavy new issue volume and the inherent distribution inefficiencies of the municipal market.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
The fund’s duration was roughly equal to the benchmark at the end of the reporting period. Since we believed the majority of curve flattening was behind us, the fund was generally laddered in structure, holding relatively equal amounts of securities in each maturity range. The fund’s largest sector weighting was in healthcare, allowing us to take advantage of the high yields in this sector.

First American Funds Annual Report 2007 13
Minnesota Intermediate Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Minnesota state income tax to the extent consistent with preservation of capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Minnesota Intermediate Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.05% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 3.87%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman 7-Year Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.21%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Other States Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 3.56%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.
Despite predictions to the contrary, yield spreads (i.e., differences in yield between lower-quality and higher-quality municipal bonds) did not appreciably widen out, and even tightened from time to time. This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds. Yield spreads on some corporate-backed municipal bonds did widen over concerns about private equity-led buyouts, potential leveraging of the balance sheet, and investment-portfolio losses related to sub-prime loans. It remains to be seen how much subprime worries seep into the pricing of “purer” municipal bonds.
While the volume of municipal bond new issue supply continued to set records, the distribution process in this market still takes time. The heavy volume can present opportunities for investors who cherry-pick among new issues and can afford to wait for demand to catch up with supply. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration ranged from neutral to slightly longer than the benchmark during the fiscal year. Beginning the year with slightly longer duration than the benchmark, we shortened duration slightly (i.e., decreased the fund’s sensitivity to interest-rate moves) after a few months, which proved beneficial.
Lower-quality higher yielding bonds outperformed high-grade bonds during the year. We believe the fund had a sufficient weighting in such higher-yielding bonds to help relative performance against other intermediate municipal bond funds. We added slightly to the nonrated bond allocation when we saw value. Due to yield curve flattening, longer (10-plus year)maturities were the best-performing area of the curve. The fund had an adequate weighting in these maturities, which helped performance.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
As a result of our adjustments, the fund’s duration was approximately neutral relative to the benchmark at the end of the fiscal year. Since we believe the majority of curve flattening is behind us, the fund has been generally laddered in structure, holding relatively equal amounts of securities in each maturity range.

Minnesota Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: maximum current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Minnesota state income tax to the extent consistent with prudent investment risk
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Minnesota Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.31% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.05%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.69%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Minnesota Municipal Debt Funds Objective Average, was 3.80%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.
Despite predictions to the contrary, yield spreads (i.e., differences in yield between lower-quality and higher-quality municipal bonds) did not appreciably widen out, and even tightened from time to time. This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds. Yield spreads on some corporate-backed municipal bonds did widen over concerns about private equity-led buyouts, potential leveraging of the balance sheet, and investment-portfolio losses related to sub-prime loans. It remains to be seen how much subprime worries seep into the pricing of “purer” municipal bonds.
While the volume of municipal bond new issue supply continued to set records, the distribution process in this market still takes time. The heavy volume can present opportunities for investors who cherry-pick among new issues and can afford to wait for demand to catch up with supply. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
As the municipal yield curve flattened, yields on longer-term bonds fell. Longer-term positions, therefore, generally outperformed shorter-term positions. The fund’s duration was long relative to the index for most of the fiscal year, which increased its sensitivity to interest-rate movements, helping performance. An overweight to bonds with maturities of 17 years and longer also contributed to performance. Long-maturity zero-coupon bonds (i.e., bonds that are purchased at a discount to their face value and pay no interest) performed especially well.
As lower-quality bonds generally outperformed higher quality, the fund’s positions in BBB-rated bonds performed relatively well. Our sector positioning had minimal impact on performance.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
Our positions in AAA-rated and A-rated bonds were reduced in favor of higher-yielding nonrated bonds. Although yield differences between high- and lower-quality bonds approached historic lows, high-yield bonds continued to outperform.
Duration was maintained long relative to the benchmark, more so toward the end of the fiscal year, after interest rates rose in the spring. Technical factors such as the fear of declining foreign investment in U.S. securities had overwhelmed fundamental factors such as moderate economic growth and low domestic inflation during the spring. This led to an increase in rates and was seen as an attractive opportunity to boost income and price sensitivity by extending the portfolio’s duration.

Missouri Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: maximum current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Missouri state income tax to the extent consistent with prudent investment risk
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Missouri Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.58% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.23%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.69%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Missouri Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 3.98%.

The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration was slightly longer than the benchmark’s for most of the fiscal year, increasing the fund’s sensitivity to interest-rate movements and thereby helping relative performance. Due to the flattening of the municipal yield curve, the fund’s holdings with very long maturities were the best performers. The fund did maintain weightings in intermediate-maturity sectors, which may have held back performance but will, we believe, benefit the fund going forward. The fund’s holdings in lower-rated higher-yielding bonds generally performed well due both to their higher income component and occasional narrowing of credit spreads (i.e., differences in yield vs. higher-quality bonds). We were able to add slightly to our lower-rated weightings when we saw value, and we believe the fund has a satisfactory weightings in these types of bonds for the present.
The fund was also active in the secondary market and sold a number of securities at relatively higher prices than when purchased, trying to take advantages of the new issue volume and the inherent distribution inefficiencies of the municipal market.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
The fund’s duration was slightly long relative to the benchmark at the end of the fiscal year. Since we believe most curve flattening is behind us, we slightly overweighted the fund’s holdings in the 10- to 20-year maturity range in comparison to those in the 30-year range. Exposure to lower-quality bonds increased during the fiscal year, a period when lower-quality bonds generally outperformed higher quality.

Nebraska Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: maximum current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Nebraska state income tax to the extent consistent with prudent investment risk
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Nebraska Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.51% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.24%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.69%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 4.00%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.
Despite predictions to the contrary, yield spreads (i.e., differences in yield between lower-quality and higher-quality municipal bonds) did not appreciably widen out, and even tightened from time to time. This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds. Yield spreads on some corporate-backed municipal bonds did widen over concerns about private equity-led buyouts, potential leveraging of the balance sheet, and investment-portfolio losses related to sub-prime loans. It remains to be seen how much subprime worries seep into the pricing of “purer” municipal bonds.
While the volume of municipal bond new issue supply continued to set records, the distribution process in this market still takes time. The heavy volume can present opportunities for investors who cherry-pick among new issues and can afford to wait for demand to catch up with supply. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration was managed consistently long relative to the benchmark to increase the fund’s sensitivity to interest-rate movements and thereby help relative performance. Due to the flattened municipal bond yield curve, which favors bonds with longer maturities, the fund’s significant position in the holdings with maturities of 15 to 20 years was a key contributor to total return. An overweight to the underperforming electric utility sector had a negative impact on performance during the fiscal year.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
The fund continued to increase its exposure to nonrated bonds as BBB-rated and nonrated bonds outperformed higher-quality issues on a total return basis. The new issue supply for Nebraska was limited during the fiscal year, making it more difficult to augment the fund’s position in lower-quality in-state bonds. To counter this scarcity of new supply, the fund selectively added out-of-state securities, which will be replaced with comparable in-state municipal bonds when these become available.

Ohio Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: maximum current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Ohio state income tax to the extent consistent with prudent investment risk
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Ohio Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.44% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.28%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.69%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Ohio Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 4.14%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined.

The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration was slightly longer than the benchmark’s for most of the fiscal year, increasing the fund’s sensitivity to interest-rate movements and helping relative performance. Due to the flattening of the municipal yield curve, the fund’s holdings with long maturities were the best performers. The fund did maintain exposure to the intermediate maturity sectors, which were adversely affected by the flattened yield curve, detracting from performance. However, we do believe that going forward this will benefit the fund. The fund’s holdings in lower-rated securities proved beneficial both due to added income and continued credit spread tightening.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
The fund’s duration was neutral to the benchmark at the end of the fiscal period. Since we believe most of the curve flattening is behind us we have begun to focus investments in the 10- to 20-year maturity range. The fund’s largest weighting is in healthcare, to take advantage of the high yields in this sector.

Oregon Intermediate Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: current income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Oregon state income tax to the extent consistent with preservation of capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Oregon Intermediate Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 3.70% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 3.54%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman 7-Year Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.21%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Other States Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 3.56%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.
Despite predictions to the contrary, yield spreads (i.e., differences in yield between lower-quality and higher-quality municipal bonds) did not appreciably widen out, and even tightened from time to time. This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds.

Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
The fund’s duration was slightly longer than the benchmark’s for most of the fiscal year, increasing the fund’s sensitivity to interest-rate movements and helping relative performance. Despite the longer duration of the portfolio, underexposure to lower-quality higher-yielding bonds detracted from performance. Oregon simply does not have the lower-rated higher-yielding supply to make possible a quick move into this sector; seizing these opportunities takes time. In the interim, out-of-state, lower-rated, higher-yielding securities were added to the portfolio to expose the fund to this sector.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
The duration of the fund remained slightly long relative to its benchmark at the end of the fiscal year. An opportunity was taken to better structure the portfolio though the purchase of current 10-year callable bonds as opposed to bonds that had shorter calls (callable bonds can be redeemed by the issuer prior to the maturity date). The fund’s largest weighting is in healthcare, to take advantage of the high yields in this sector.

Short Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: to provide investors with current income that is exempt from federal income tax, to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Short Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 3.37% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 3.22%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman 3-Year Municipal Bond Index*, returned 3.85%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper Short Municipal Debt Funds Category Average, was 3.20%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.
Despite predictions to the contrary, yield spreads (i.e., differences in yield between lower-quality and higher-quality municipal bonds) did not appreciably widen out, and even tightened from time to time. This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds. Yield spreads on some corporate-backed municipal bonds did widen over concerns about private equity-led buyouts, potential leveraging of the balance sheet, and investment-portfolio losses related to sub-prime loans. It remains to be seen how much subprime worries seep into the pricing of “purer” municipal bonds.
While the volume of municipal bond new issue supply continued to set records, the distribution process in this market still takes time. The heavy volume can present opportunities for investors who cherry-pick among new issues and can afford to wait for demand to catch up with supply. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
Anticipating that the Federal Reserve (the Fed) might set in motion the process of easing interest rates, the fund moved to more of a barbell maturity structure that emphasized shorter and longer maturities, while reducing the fund’s weighting in intermediate maturity bonds. The strategy allowed the fund to acquire some bonds with slightly longer maturities, with the idea of “locking in” additional yield over a longer time horizon. The economy, however, remained resilient and the Fed was able to leave the Fed Funds rate unchanged. Short-term rates actually rose over the period as the market reduced its expectations for any Fed activity. An overweight in the hospital/healthcare sector, characterized by high yields, continued to be a positive contributor to total return.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
In light of continued economic strength and the potential for increasing rates, the fund’s duration was managed shorter than the benchmark. In addition, the fund continued to increase its exposure to nonrated and high-yield bonds, which have been key contributors to total return in the past.

Tax Free fund
Investment Objective: maximum current income that is exempt from federal income tax to the extent consistent with the prudent investment risk
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.42% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.16%, without taking the sales charge into account, for the same period). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Municipal Bond Index*, returned 4.69%. Performance for the fund’s peer group, the Lipper General Municipal Debt Funds Objective Average, was 4.12%.
What were the general municipal market conditions during the fiscal year?
Yields initially declined and bond prices rose during the second half of 2006. After that, yields rose in a choppy fashion through the end of this fiscal year. The yield curve ended the period flatter, as short-term interest rates rose very modestly while intermediate and longer yields declined. The curve did not end the period at its flattest extreme, however, which was recorded earlier in 2007.
In terms of total return for the period, the longer the maturity the better the returns. Curve-flattening pressures persist. In recent years the municipal market has even developed its own form of “carry” trade, in which some investors borrow in the short-term money markets and invest in longer maturities, trying to take advantage of the relative steepness of the municipal yield curve in comparison to other bond markets.
Despite predictions to the contrary, yield spreads (i.e., differences in yield between lower-quality and higher-quality municipal bonds) did not appreciably widen out, and even tightened from time to time. This lack of spread-widening helped lower-quality bonds outperform higher-quality bonds by virtue of their higher income component. We are not optimistic on the prospects of additional spread-tightening for lower-grade bonds. Yield spreads on some corporate-backed municipal bonds did widen over concerns about private equity-led buyouts, potential leveraging of the balance sheet, and investment-portfolio losses related to sub-prime loans. It remains to be seen how much subprime worries seep into the pricing of “purer” municipal bonds.
While the volume of municipal bond new issue supply continued to set records, the distribution process in this market still takes time. The heavy volume can present opportunities for investors who cherry-pick among new issues and can afford to wait for demand to catch up with supply. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
As the municipal yield curve flattened, yields on longer-term bonds fell. Longer-term positions, therefore, generally outperformed shorter-term positions. The fund’s duration was long relative to the index for most of the fiscal year, which increased its sensitivity to interest-rate movements. An overweight to bonds with maturities of 17 years and longer helped performance. Long-maturity zero-coupon bonds (i.e., bonds that pay no interest rate) held by the fund performed especially well. During a period when lower-quality bonds generally outperformed higher quality, the fund’s positions in BBB-rated bonds performed relatively well. The fund’s overweight in healthcare areas such as hospitals and continuing-care retirement communities also helped performance.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
Throughout the fiscal year we gradually reduced our positions in BBB-rated bonds in favor of AAA-rated bonds. Selected BBB-rated bonds had outperformed to a point that appeared to represent overvaluation. With the yield difference between high- and lower-quality securities nearing historic lows, reinvestment in higher-quality bonds seemed prudent.
Duration was maintained long relative to the benchmark, more so toward the end of the fiscal year, after interest rates rose in the spring. Technical factors, such as the fear of declining foreign investment in U.S. securities, had overwhelmed fundamental factors such as moderate economic growth and low domestic inflation during the spring. This led to an increase in rates and was seen as an attractive opportunity to boost income and price sensitivity by extending the portfolio’s duration. We reduced some of the fund’s overweight in healthcare in favor of higher-quality general-obligation bonds.

Expense Examples
As a shareholder of one or more of the funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 1, 2007, to June 30, 2007.
Actual Expenses
For each class of each fund, two lines are presented in the table below – the first line for each class provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested in the particular fund and class, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value in the fund and class divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” for your fund and class to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class of each fund, the second line for each class provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the respective fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare these 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of the table for each class 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.

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designating audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included verification by examination of securities held by the custodian as of June 30, 2007 and confirmation of the securities held by correspondence with brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights as referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the funds listed above of First American Investment Funds, Inc. at June 30, 2007, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and their financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

2 > | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
| |
| The significant accounting policies followed by the funds are as follows: |
|
| SECURITY VALUATIONS – Security valuations for the funds’ investments are furnished by an independent pricing service that has been approved by the funds’ board of directors. Debt obligations exceeding 60 days to maturity are valued by an independent pricing service. The pricing service may employ methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-dealer supplied valuations, or other formula-driven valuation techniques. These techniques generally consider such factors as yields or prices of bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity, ratings, and general market conditions. Securities for which prices are not available from an independent pricing service, but where an active market exists, are valued using market quotations obtained from one or more dealers that make markets in the securities or from a widely-used quotation system. When market quotations are not readily available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by procedures established and approved by the funds’ board of directors. Some of the factors which may be considered in determining fair value are fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and duration of any restrictions on disposition; trading in similar securities of the same issuer or comparable companies; information from broker-dealers; and an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold. If events occur that materially affect the value of securities between the close of trading in those securities and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the securities will be valued at fair value. The use of fair value pricing by a fund may cause the net asset value of its shares to differ significantly from net asset value that would be calculated without regard to such considerations. At June 30, 2007, the funds held no fair-valued securities. Debt obligations with 60 days or less remaining until maturity will be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at their respective net asset values on the valuation date. |
|
| SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME – For financial statement purposes, the funds record security transactions on the trade date of the security purchase or |

| |
| sale. Interest income, including amortization of bond premium and discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Security gains and losses are determined on the basis of identified cost, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. The resulting gain/loss is calculated as the difference between the sales price and the underlying cost of the security on the transaction date. |
|
| DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS – Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and are payable in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the fund at the net asset value on the last business day of each month. Any net realized capital gains on sales of a fund’s securities are distributed to shareholders at least annually. |
|
| FEDERAL TAXES – Each fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. Each fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company as provided in Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and to distribute all taxable income, if any, to its shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise taxes is required. |
|
| Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes because of temporary or permanent book/tax differences. These differences are primarily due to book and tax differences for straddle loss deferrals and classification of dividends paid by the funds. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the fiscal period that the differences arise. |
|
| On the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, the following reclassifications were made: |
| | | | | | | | |
| | Accumulated | | | |
| | Net | | | Undistributed | |
| | Realized | | | Net Investment | |
Fund | | Gain | | | Income | |
|

Minnesota Tax Free Fund | | | (1 | ) | | | 1 | |
|
| |
| The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. In addition, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal period in which the amounts are distributed may differ from the year or period that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the fund. The distributions paid during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the nine-month fiscal period ended June 30, 2006, and the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005 (adjusted by dividends payable as of June 30, 2007, June 30, 2006, and September 30, 2005) were as follows: |

| |
| The difference between book and tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is primarily due to the tax deferral of losses deferred due to straddles. |
|
| As of June 30, 2007, Short Tax Free Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $1,932, of which $238 will expire in 2013, $550 will expire in 2014, and $1,144 will expire in 2015 if not offset by subsequent capital gains. |
|
| The Short Tax Free Fund incurred a loss of $349 for tax purposes for the period from November 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007. As permitted by tax regulations, the fund intends to elect to defer and treat those losses as arising in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. |
|
| FUTURES TRANSACTIONS – In order to protect against changes in the market and to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet redemption requests, each fund may enter into futures contracts. Upon entering into a futures contract, the fund is required to deposit cash or pledge U.S. government securities. The margin required for a futures contract is set by the exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments, which are dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security or securities, are made or received by the fund each day (daily variation margin) and are recorded as unrealized gains (losses) until the contract is closed. When the contract is closed, the fund records a realized gain (loss) equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the fund’s basis in the contract. |
|
| Risks of entering into futures contracts, in general, include the possibility that there will not be a perfect price correlation between the futures contracts and the underlying securities. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a futures position prior to its maturity date. Third, the purchase of a futures contract involves the risk that a fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate a futures transaction. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the amount reflected in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Unrealized gains (losses) on outstanding positions in futures contracts held at the close of the year will be recognized as capital gains (losses) for federal income tax purposes. At June 30, 2007, no fund had outstanding futures contracts. |
|
| SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS – Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by a fund on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis can take place up to a month or more after the transaction. Such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuations, and may increase or decrease in value prior to delivery. Each fund segregates assets with a market value equal to or greater than the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis may increase the volatility of a fund’s net asset value if the fund makes such purchases while remaining substantially fully invested. At June 30, 2007, the following funds had outstanding commitments to purchase securities on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis: |
| | | | |
Fund | | Cost | |
|
California Intermediate Tax Free Fund | | $ | 542 | |
California Tax Free Fund | | | 896 | |
Colorado Intermediate Tax Free Fund | | | 665 | |
Colorado Tax Free Fund | | | 731 | |

Missouri Tax Free Fund | | | 3,342 | |
Nebraska Tax Free Fund | | | 245 | |

| ILLIQUID OR RESTRICTED SECURITIES – A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market. Securities are generally considered liquid if they can be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the price at which the security is valued by the fund. Illiquid securities may be valued under methods approved by the funds’ board of directors as reflecting fair value. Each fund intends to invest no more than 15% of its net assets (determined at the time of purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. Certain restricted securities may be considered illiquid. Restricted securities are often purchased in private placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, and may have contractual restrictions on resale. Certain restricted securities eligible for resale to qualified institutional investors, including Rule 144A securities, are not subject to the limitation on a fund’s investment in illiquid securities if they are determined to be liquid in accordance with procedures adopted by the funds’ board of directors. At June 30, 2007, no fund had investments in illiquid securities. |
|
| INVERSE FLOATERS – As part of their investment strategy, the funds may invest in certain securities for which the potential income return is inversely related to changes in a floating interest rate (“inverse floaters”). In general, income on inverse floaters will decrease when short-term interest rates increase and increase when short-term interest rates decrease. Inverse floaters may be characterized as derivative securities and may subject a fund to the risks of reduced or eliminated interest payments and losses of invested principal. In addition, inverse floaters have the effect of providing investment leverage and, as a result, the market values of such securities will generally be more volatile than those of fixed-rate, tax-exempt securities. To the extent the funds invest in inverse floaters, the net asset value of the funds’ shares may be more volatile than if the funds did not invest in such securities. As of and for the year ended June 30, 2007, no fund had investments in inverse floaters. |

| EXPENSES – Expenses that are directly related to one of the funds are charged directly to that fund. Other operating expenses are allocated to the funds on several bases, including evenly across all funds, allocated based on relative net assets of all funds within the First American Family of Funds, or a combination of both methods. Class specific expenses, such as distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees, are borne by that class. Income, other expenses, and realized and unrealized gains and losses of a fund are allocated to each respective class in proportion to the relative net assets of each class. |
|
| INTERFUND LENDING PROGRAM – Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the funds, along with other registered investment companies in the First American Family of Funds, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the funds to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating funds. The funds did not have any interfund lending transactions during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. |
|
| DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN – Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), non-interested directors of the First American Family of Funds may participate and elect to defer receipt of part or all of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of selected open-end First American Funds as designated by the board of directors. All amounts in the Plan are 100% vested and accounts under the Plan are obligations of the funds. Deferred amounts remain in the funds until distributed in accordance with the Plan. |
|
| USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
| |
| INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES – Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (the “Agreement”), FAF Advisors, Inc. (“FAF Advisors”) manages each fund’s assets and furnishes related office facilities, equipment, research, and personnel. The Agreement requires each fund to pay FAF Advisors a monthly fee equal, on an annual basis, to 0.50% of the fund’s average daily net assets. FAF Advisors has agreed to waive fees and reimburse other fund expenses at least through June 30, 2008, so that total fund operating expenses, as a percentage of average daily net assets, do not exceed the following amounts: |

| The funds may invest in related money market funds that are series of First American Funds, Inc., subject to certain limitations. In order to avoid the payment of duplicative investment advisory fees to FAF Advisors, which acts as the investment advisor to both the investing funds and the related money market funds, FAF Advisors will reimburse each investing fund an amount equal to that portion of FAF Advisors’ investment advisory fee received from the related money market funds that is attributable to the assets of the investing fund. |
|
| ADMINISTRATION FEES – FAF Advisors serves as the funds’ administrator pursuant to an administration agreement between FAF Advisors and the funds. U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (“USBFS”) serves as sub-administrator pursuant to a sub-administration agreement between USBFS and FAF Advisors. FAF Advisors is a subsidiary of U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”). Both U.S. Bank and USBFS are direct subsidiaries of U.S. Bancorp. Under the administration agreement, FAF Advisors is compensated to provide, or compensates other entities to provide, services to the funds. These services include various legal, oversight, and administrative services and accounting services. The funds pay FAF Advisors administration fees, which are calculated daily and paid monthly, equal to each fund’s pro rata share of an amount equal, on an annual basis, to 0.25% of the aggregate average daily net assets of all open-end mutual funds in the First American Family of Funds up to $8 billion, 0.235% on the next $17 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, 0.22% on the next $25 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, and 0.20% of the aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $50 billion. All fees paid to the sub-administrator are paid from the administration fee. In addition to these fees, the funds may reimburse FAF Advisors and the sub-administrator for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing administration services. |

| |
| TRANSFER AGENT FEES – USBFS serves as the funds’ transfer agent pursuant to a transfer agent agreement with FAIF. The funds are charged transfer agent fees on a per shareholder account basis, subject to a minimum fee per share class. These fees are charged to each fund based upon the number of accounts within that fund. In addition to these fees, the funds may reimburse USBFS for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing transfer agent services. |
|
| CUSTODIAN FEES – U.S. Bank serves as the custodian for each fund pursuant to a custodian agreement with FAIF. The custodian fee charged for each fund is equal to an annual rate of 0.005% of average daily net assets. All fees are computed daily and paid monthly. |
|
| Under the custodian agreement, interest earned on uninvested cash balances is used to reduce a portion of each fund’s custodian expenses. These credits, if any, are disclosed as “Indirect payments from custodian” in the Statements of Operations. Conversely, the custodian charges a fee for any cash overdrafts incurred, which increases the fund’s custodian expenses. |
|
| For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, custodian fees were increased as a result of overdrafts and decreased as a result of interest earned as follows: |

| DISTRIBUTION AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICING FEES – Quasar Distributors, LLC (“Quasar”), a subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp, serves as the distributor of the funds pursuant to a distribution agreement with FAIF. Under the distribution agreement, and pursuant to a plan adopted by each fund under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act, each of the funds pays Quasar a monthly distribution and/or shareholder servicing fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% and 0.65% of each fund’s average daily net assets of Class A and Class C shares, respectively. No distribution or shareholder servicing fees are paid by Class Y shares. These fees may be used by Quasar to provide compensation for sales support, distribution activities, and/or shareholder servicing activities. |

6 > | Concentration of Credit Risk |
| |
| The Arizona Tax Free Fund, California Intermediate Tax Free Fund, California Tax Free Fund, Colorado Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Colorado Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, Missouri Tax Free Fund, Nebraska Tax Free Fund, Ohio Tax Free Fund, and Oregon Intermediate Tax Free Fund invest in debt instruments of municipal issuers in specific states. Although these funds monitor investment concentration, the issuers’ ability to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in the specific state or region. Additionally, each state has various guidelines relating to the tax treatment of the income distributed from each fund. |
| |
| The funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote. |
| |
8 > | New Accounting Pronouncements |
| |
| On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the funds’ tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Recent Securities and Exchange Commission guidance allows implementing FIN 48 in fund net asset value calculations as late as the funds’ last net asset value calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period. As a result, the funds will incorporate FIN 48 in their semiannual report on December 31, 2007. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact in the financial statements has not yet been determined. |
|
| In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. As of June 30, 2007, the funds do not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements; however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value and the effect of certain measurements reported in the Statement of Operations for a fiscal period. |

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
| |
| The Board of Directors of the Funds (the “Board”), which is comprised entirely of independent directors, oversees the management of the Funds and, as required by law, determines annually whether to renew the Funds’ advisory agreement with FAF Advisors, Inc. (“FAF Advisors”). |
|
| At a meeting on May 1-3, 2007, the Board considered information relating to the Funds’ investment advisory agreement with FAF Advisors (the “Agreement”). In advance of the meeting, the Board received materials relating to the Agreement, and had the opportunity to ask questions and request further information in connection with their consideration. At a subsequent meeting on June 19-21, 2007, the Board concluded its consideration of and approved the Agreement through June 30, 2008. |
|
| Although the Agreement, which is with First American Investment Funds, Inc., relates to all of the Funds, the Board separately considered and approved the Agreement with respect to each Fund. In considering the Agreement, the Board, advised by independent legal counsel, reviewed and considered the factors it deemed relevant, including: (1) the nature, quality, and extent of FAF Advisors’ services to the Fund, (2) the investment performance of the Fund, (3) the profitability of FAF Advisors related to the Fund, including an analysis of FAF Advisors’ cost of providing services and comparative expense information, (4) whether economies of scale may be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels are adjusted to enable Fund investors to share in these potential economies of scale, and (5) other benefits that accrue to FAF Advisors through its relationship with the Fund. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any single factor which alone was responsible for the Board’s decision to approve the Agreement. |
First American Funds Annual Report 2007 123
NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS (continued)
| |
| Before approving the Agreement, the Board met in executive session with its independent counsel on numerous occasions to consider the materials provided by FAF Advisors and the terms of the Agreement. Based on its evaluation of all material factors, the Board concluded that the Agreement is fair and in the interests of the shareholders of each Fund. In reaching its conclusions, the Board considered the following: |
Nature, Quality, and Extent of Investment Advisory Services
| |
| The Board examined the nature, quality, and extent of the services provided by FAF Advisors to each Fund. The Board reviewed FAF Advisors’ key personnel who provide investment advisory services to each Fund as well as the fact that, under the Agreement, FAF Advisors has the authority and responsibility to make and execute investment decisions for each Fund within the framework of the Fund’s investment policies and restrictions, subject to review by the Board. The Board further considered that FAF Advisors’ duties with respect to each Fund include (i) investment research and security selection, (ii) adherence to (and monitoring compliance with) the Fund’s investment policies and restrictions and the Investment Company Act of 1940, and (iii) monitoring the performance of the various organizations providing services to the Fund, including the Fund’s distributor, sub-administrator, transfer agent and custodian. Finally, the Board considered FAF Advisors’ representation that the services provided by FAF Advisors under the Agreement are the type of services customarily provided by investment advisors in the fund industry. |
|
| The Board also considered compliance reports about FAF Advisors from the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer. |
|
| Based on the foregoing, the Board concluded that each Fund is likely to benefit from the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by FAF Advisors under the Agreement. |
Investment Performance of the Funds
| |
| The Board considered the performance of each Fund, as summarized below, including how the Fund performed versus the median performance of a group of comparable funds selected by an independent data service (the “performance universe”) and how the Fund performed versus its benchmark index. The performance periods reviewed by the Board ended on January 31, 2007. In the case of each state-specific Fund, the Board considered that the Fund’s benchmark index is a national municipal index, rather than a state-specific index, and noted FAF Advisors’ assertion that the Board should, therefore, treat the Fund’s performance universe as a more meaningful source of comparative performance data. The Board also considered that, in reviewing the comparative performance of income funds, the different expense levels of a Fund’s share classes can result in different net performance results for each of those classes. Thus, while the Board considered the performance of all classes, it focused on Class Y shares, which, because they have the lowest total expense ratios, offered the most meaningful data on performance. |
|
| Arizona Tax Free Fund, California Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, Tax Free Fund, and Intermediate Tax Free. For each of these Funds, the Board considered that the Fund outperformed or performed competitively against the performance universe median and benchmark for the one-, three-, five- and, if applicable, ten-year periods, except that the Intermediate Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark for the ten-year period. The Board concluded that, in light of each Fund’s competitive performance, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| California Intermediate Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund significantly outperformed the performance universe median for the one-, three-and five-year periods. The Board also considered that the Fund outperformed the benchmark for those periods, other than the five-year period. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s competitive performance record, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholder to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Colorado Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund significantly outperformed the performance universe median for the one-, three- and five-year periods. The Board also considered that the Fund outperformed the benchmark for the five-year period except that it underperformed the benchmark for the one- and three-year periods. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s competitive performance record, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholder to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Colorado Intermediate Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed the performance universe median for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund outperformed or performed competitively versus the benchmark for the one- and three-year periods except that it underperformed the benchmark for the other periods. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s competitive performance, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Minnesota Intermediate Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed the performance universe median for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods. The Board also considered that the Fund outperformed its |
124 First American Funds Annual Report 2007
| |
| benchmark for the one-, and three-year periods, though it underperformed the benchmark for the five- and ten-year periods. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s competitive performance, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Missouri Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed or performed competitively against its performance universe for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund underperformed its benchmark for those periods. The Board considered FAF Advisors’ assertion that the Fund’s performance has been affected by its limited ability to enter into transactions with Piper Jaffray, an active dealer in Missouri secondary market trading. This results from banking regulation related restrictions, which were eliminated last fall. In light of the elimination of that restriction, the Board considered recent performance, noting that for the first quarter of 2007 the Fund had significantly outperformed both the performance universe median and the benchmark. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s competitive performance compared to that of the performance universe and the recent positive impact of the increased access to Piper Jaffray’s offering and secondary market trading capabilities, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Nebraska Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed the performance universe median for the one-, three- and five-year periods, though it underperformed its benchmark for the same periods. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s competitive performance compared to its performance universe, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Ohio Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed the performance universe median for the one- and three-year periods, though it underperformed its benchmark for both periods. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s strong performance versus its performance universe, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Oregon Intermediate Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed the performance universe median for the one-, three- and five-year periods, though it underperformed its benchmark for all periods. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s strong performance versus its performance universe, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Short Tax Free Fund. The Board noted that the Fund performed competitively versus its performance universe for the one-year period, though it underperformed for the three-year period. The Board also considered that the Fund outperformed the benchmark for the one-year period, though it underperformed the benchmark for the three-year period. The Board considered FAF Advisors’ assertion that there is significant volatility in the peer universe rankings and that, as a result, a more meaningful comparative time-frame within which to measure the Fund performance would be that beginning with the Fund’s inception date (October 25, 2002). The Board noted that the Fund outperformed the performance universe median for that “since inception” period. The Board concluded that, in light of these factors, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
Costs of Services and Profits Realized by FAF Advisors
| |
| The Board reviewed FAF Advisors’ estimated costs in serving as the Funds’ investment manager, including the costs associated with the personnel and systems necessary to manage each Fund. The Board also considered the reported profitability of FAF Advisors and its affiliates resulting from their relationship with each Fund. For each Fund, the Board reviewed fee and expense information as compared to that of other funds and accounts managed by FAF Advisors and of comparable funds managed by other advisers. The Board found that while the advisory fees for FAF Advisors’ institutional separate accounts are lower than the Funds’ advisory fees, the Funds receive additional services from FAF Advisors that separate accounts do not receive. |
|
| Using information provided by an independent data service, the Board also evaluated each Fund’s advisory fee compared to the median advisory fee for other mutual funds similar in size, character and investment strategy, and each Fund’s total expense ratio after waivers compared to the median total expense ratio, after waivers, of comparable funds. In connection with its review of Fund fees and expenses, the Board asked FAF Advisors to articulate its pricing philosophy. FAF Advisors responded that it attempts generally to maintain each Fund’s total operating expenses at a level that approximates its peer group median total expense ratio. In addition, FAF Advisors committed to waive its investment advisory fees to the extent necessary to maintain the Funds’ total expense ratios at levels generally in line with their respective peer groups. Consistent with this pricing philosophy, FAF Advisors agreed to maintain the Funds’ expense caps at their current levels through June 30, 2008. |
First American Funds Annual Report 2007 125
NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS (continued)
| |
| Further detail considered by the Board regarding the advisory fees and total expense ratios of each Fund is set forth below: |
|
| Arizona Tax Free Fund, California Tax Free Fund, Colorado Tax Free Fund, Colorado Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Nebraska Tax Free Fund, Ohio Tax Free Fund, and Short Tax Free Fund. For each of these Funds, the advisory fee and total expense ratio, after waivers, were less than or equal to the peer group median. The Board concluded that each Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio is reasonable in light of the services provided. |
|
| California Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, and Oregon Intermediate Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that each Fund’s advisory fee, after waivers, was lower than the peer group median. Though each Fund’s total expense ratio was higher than the median, the Board noted that it was within a range consistent with FAF Advisors’ pricing philosophy. The Board concluded that each Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio are reasonable in light of the services provided. |
|
| Missouri Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio, after waivers, were higher than the peer group median. The Board also noted, however, that the Fund’s total expenses were close to the range established by FAF Advisors’ general pricing philosophy. The Board concluded that the Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio are reasonable in light of the services provided. |
|
| Tax Free Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s advisory fee, after waivers, was slightly higher than the peer group median. The Board also noted that the Fund’s total expense ratio, after waivers, was higher than that of the peer group median, though within a range consistent with FAF Advisors’ pricing philosophy. In light of this, the Board concluded that the Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio are reasonable in light of the services provided. |
Economies of Scale in Providing Investment Advisory Services
| |
| The Board considered whether each Fund’s investment advisory fee reflects the potential for economies of scale for the benefit of Fund shareholders. Based on information provided by FAF Advisors, the Board noted that profitability will likely increase somewhat as assets grow over time. The Board considered that, although the Funds do not have advisory fee breakpoints in place, FAF Advisors has committed to waive advisory fees to the extent necessary to keep each Fund’s total expenses generally in line with the median total expenses of a peer group of funds as selected by an independent data service. The Board considered FAF Advisors’ assertion that the median total expense ratio of a Fund’s peer group will reflect the effect of any breakpoints in the advisory fee schedules of the funds in that group and any economies of scale which those funds realize. Therefore, by capping a Fund’s total expense ratio at a level close to the median, Fund shareholders should receive the benefit of any breakpoints in the comparable funds’ advisory fee schedules and any such economies of scale. In light of FAF Advisors’ commitment to keep total Fund expenses competitive, the Board concluded that it would be reasonable and in the best interest of each Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
Other Benefits to FAF Advisors
| |
| In evaluating the benefits that accrue to FAF Advisors through its relationship with the Funds, the Board noted that FAF Advisors and certain of its affiliates serve the Funds in various capacities, including as advisor, administrator, transfer agent, distributor and custodian, and receive compensation from the Funds in connection with providing services to the Funds. The Board considered that each service provided to the Funds by FAF Advisors or one of its affiliates is pursuant to a written agreement, which the Board evaluates periodically as required by law. |
|
| After full consideration of these and other factors, the Board concluded that approval of the Agreement was in the best interest of each Fund and its shareholders. |

First American Funds Annual Report 2007 1
Core Bond FUND
Investment Objective: high current income consistent with limited risk to capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Core Bond Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 5.53% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 5.26% without taking the sales charge into account). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index*, returned 6.12% for the same period.
What were the general economic and market conditions during the fiscal year?
Economic growth was generally below the economy’s long-term potential during the second half of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007. Most indicators point to an improvement in growth during the second quarter to slightly above the economy’s long-term potential, but the improvement in growth primarily reflects an increase in production to rebuild inventories. Final domestic demand growth has moderated, and this moderation is expected to persist during the second half of 2007 as the housing market remains weak, home prices decline, and higher energy prices have a negative effect on real purchasing power. But at the same time, strong global growth should continue to provide a positive offset, with U.S. export growth helping to support U.S. economic activity.
Core inflation has slowed faster than anticipated and is now back within the Federal Reserve’s comfort zone. But overall inflation risks remain elevated, with energy and food prices continuing to rise and the low unemployment rate suggesting that resource utilization remains at a relatively high level. The combination of moderate growth, decelerating inflation, and high levels of resource utilization has resulted in the Fed’s leaving policy rates unchanged over the past year. The Fed should have sufficient flexibility to lower policy rates to support economic activity, should that be necessary, given the current inflation environment. While bond yields rose substantially from early May to mid-June, they have since stabilized and currently remain below the Fed funds rate. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
Interest rates were somewhat volatile within a range during the fiscal year as Fed easing expectations were priced in and out of the market. As a result, the fund’s interest-rate strategy was not a major contributor to returns. Short-term rates ended marginally lower over the time frame, which helped performance.
With the global capital markets awash in cash and risk tolerances at high levels, all non-Treasury sectors once again had strong returns through the first quarter of 2007. Much of this outperformance was reversed in the second quarter as subprime loan issues escalated at several hedge funds and investors retreated to the safety of Treasury securities. The fund had purchased credit protection on certain corporate issuers and index products, which boosted performance as risk premiums on these securities increased (credit protection is a credit default swap that will increase in value if the price of the bond falls).
The housing market failed to recover from its year-long malaise, and mortgage securities backed by newly originated subprime and alternative documentation loans (i.e., loans requiring little or no verification of income) performed poorly amid growing concerns about higher levels of mortgage defaults and foreclosures. The portfolio’s focus on seasoned loans to prime borrowers was beneficial to the fund’s performance against its peers during the fiscal year, confirming our belief that these loans offer an attractive risk/return profile.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
We became more defensive on corporate credit risk due to heightened risk of leveraged buyouts and expensive valuations. We did this by selling a large percentage of our corporate bond holdings gradually during the fiscal year. We also bought credit protection on both diversified baskets of bonds and on single issuers (credit protection is a credit default swap that will increase in value if the price of the bond falls). While this strategy failed to make meaningful impact on performance during the fiscal year, we believe that a defensive positioning in credit will prove beneficial in the coming quarters if corporate bonds should underperform.
In the course of the fiscal year, we increasingly emphasized holdings in mortgage bonds originated in 2004 or earlier. These securities performed well in the slower housing/higher mortgage delinquency environment and should continue to do so until the housing market recovers.
We increased our overweight to commercial mortgage-backed securities, which is a high-quality asset with minimal event risk. This strategy failed to gain traction during the fiscal year as a large supply of new issues caused the sector to lag.

First American Funds Annual Report 2007 3
High Income Bond FUND
Investment Objective: high current income
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American High Income Bond Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 11.73% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 11.46% without taking the sales charge into account). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index*, returned 11.21% for the same period.
What were the general economic and market conditions during the fiscal year?
Economic growth was generally below the economy’s long-term potential during the second half of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007. Most indicators point to an improvement in growth during the second quarter to slightly above the economy’s long-term potential, but the improvement in growth primarily reflects an increase in production to rebuild inventories. Final domestic demand growth has moderated, and this moderation is expected to persist during the second half of 2007 as the housing market remains weak, home prices decline, and higher energy prices have a negative effect on real purchasing power. But at the same time, strong global growth should continue to provide a positive offset, with U.S. export growth helping to support U.S. economic activity.
Core inflation has slowed faster than anticipated and is now back within the Federal Reserve’s comfort zone. But overall inflation risks remain elevated, with energy and food prices continuing to rise and the low unemployment rate suggesting that resource utilization remains at a relatively high level. The combination of moderate growth, decelerating inflation, and high levels of resource utilization has resulted in the Fed’s leaving policy rates unchanged over the past year. The Fed should have sufficient flexibility to lower policy rates to support economic activity, should that be necessary, given the current inflation environment. While bond yields rose substantially from early May to mid-June, they have since stabilized and currently remain below the Fed funds rate. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
Throughout the first three quarters of the fiscal year, an environment of low volatility, little to no default risk, accommodative Fed action, and stable to strong equity markets led to solid performance from high-yield bonds. Yield spreads over Treasuries were relatively narrow at the beginning of the period, particularly for higher-quality high yield bonds, and narrowed further throughout the period. The investors who took on an increasing amount of risk in the lower-rated bond tiers were rewarded with outsized returns, as CCC-rated bond spreads ratcheted to all-time tight levels early in the year. A bout of volatility in February due to concern over an overheated Chinese stock market and a reduction in global liquidity caused high-yield bonds to finally underperform Treasuries. As the fiscal year came to a close, concerns over a large and increasing supply of acquisition-related high-yield debt, coupled with contagion from the subprime mortgage market, caused spreads to widen more meaningfully.
Prior to the beginning of the fiscal year, we had improved the average quality of the portfolio and underweighted CCC-rated holdings in anticipation of a down phase in the credit cycle, which never occurred. Instead, as CCC-rated bonds outperformed higher-quality high-yield bonds by a fairly wide margin, the fund fought an uphill battle in matching index performance. The fund was able to overcome this by overweighting certain sectors that exhibited strong relative performance, most notably metals and mining, paper/forest products, and airlines. The fund also moved to take advantage of the global growth phenomenon by adding roughly 10% to foreign and emerging market corporate bonds, where we saw better valuations and strong fundamentals.
Individual security selection accounted for the lion’s share of performance. We recognized an opportunity to participate in the distressed debt of Adelphia Communications and of Delta Airlines, both of which were in bankruptcy but also stood to benefit from the Chapter 11 process. Other investments in the paper sector, notably bonds issued by Newark Group, Mercer International, and Millar Western, provided a lift. On the negative side, our underweight to a few top-performing sectors such as cable/media and building products detracted from the fund’s performance.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
We initiated several small positions in closed-end funds, primarily to efficiently gain access to sectors of the market we favor, such as leveraged loans and global securities. We similarly made selective investments in the areas of preferred stock and convertible securities, again looking to capitalize on strong sectors of the economy and favorable risk/reward characteristics. We maintained our investments in royalty trusts, which are attractive for their large dividend yields and possible upside in this environment of high energy prices. Together, these areas accounted for less than 10% of the overall portfolio, but they provide for important diversification in an environment of increased credit market volatility and richly valued high-yield.

Interest rates were somewhat volatile within a range during the fiscal year as Fed easing expectations were priced in and out of the market. As a result, the fund’s interest-rate strategy was not a major contributor to returns. Short-term rates ended marginally lower over the time frame, which helped performance. As inflation moderated, Treasury Inflation-Protected Security (TIPS) returns lagged those of regular treasuries with comparable duration. The portfolio was biased toward the potential Fed easing, which, however, did not occur during the fiscal year, adversely affecting fund performance.
Volatile energy markets had a significant influence on the TIPS yield curve. The portfolio’s positioning, with a bias to the long end of the yield curve, produced a negative impact on performance as the yield curve steepened, with yields on shorter-maturity bonds rising.
The dollar and U.S. bonds benefited as Asian nations recycled their current account surpluses by investing the savings. U.S. bonds outperformed most foreign markets following the Fed’s end to monetary tightening. The dollar remained volatile during the fiscal year, generally depreciating against the currencies of countries with higher yields than the United States, but significantly appreciating against the yen. The fund’s foreign-exchange and nondollar strategies helped performance throughout the decline in the U.S. dollar during the spring of 2006, but the subsequent period did not produce profitable trends, hurting fund performance.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
We approached duration management tactically, taking advantage of the market’s shifting sentiments on growth, inflation, and Fed policy prospects. We overweighted shorter-maturity TIPS during first half of the fiscal year, as the short end of the TIPS yield curve benefited from strong first-half inflation accruals (i.e., increases in the notional value of TIPS related to periodic changes in the Consumer Price Index).
The fund was positioned for a weaker dollar, as both cyclical and long-term negative economic trends increasingly pressured the currency. The fund held positions in high-quality foreign government bonds since their yields were attractive in comparison to the United States.
As we modified our expectations concerning the shape of the yield curve, we moved to underweight longer-maturity TIPS, given our view of continued moderation in inflation and of unchanging Fed rate policy.

Intermediate Government Bond FUND
Investment Objective: provide investors with current income that is exempt from state income tax, to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Intermediate Government Bond Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.84% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.68% without taking the sales charge into account). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Intermediate Treasury Bond Index*, returned 5.28% for the same period.
What were the general economic and market conditions during the fiscal year?
Economic growth was generally below the economy’s long-term potential during the second half of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007. Most indicators point to an improvement in growth during the second quarter to slightly above the economy’s long-term potential, but the improvement in growth primarily reflects an increase in production to rebuild inventories. Final domestic demand growth has moderated, and this moderation is expected to persist during the second half of 2007 as the housing market remains weak, home prices decline, and higher energy prices have a negative effect on real purchasing power. But at the same time, strong global growth should continue to provide a positive offset, with U.S. export growth helping to support U.S. economic activity.
Core inflation has slowed faster than anticipated and is now back within the Federal Reserve’s comfort zone. But overall inflation risks remain elevated, with energy and food prices continuing to rise and the low unemployment rate suggesting that resource utilization remains at a relatively high level. The combination of moderate growth, decelerating inflation, and high levels of resource utilization has resulted in the Fed’s leaving policy rates unchanged over the past year. The Fed should have sufficient flexibility to lower policy rates to support economic activity, should that be necessary, given the current inflation environment. While bond yields rose substantially from early May to mid-June, they have since stabilized and currently remain below the Fed funds rate. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
Interest rates were somewhat volatile within a range during the fiscal year as Fed easing expectations were priced in and out of the market. As a result, the fund’s interest-rate strategy was not a major contributor to returns. Short-term rates ended marginally lower over the time frame, which helped performance.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
We approached duration management tactically, taking advantage of the market’s shifting sentiments on growth, inflation, and Fed policy prospects. We maintained allocation to agency debt securities, given stable credit fundamentals, improving risk profile, and supportive technicals. This strategy helped fund performance as agencies enjoyed another year of positive excess returns.

Intermediate Term Bond FUND
Investment Objective: current income to the extent consistent with preservation of capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Intermediate Term Bond Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.98% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.80% without taking the sales charge into account). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Intermediate Government/ Credit Bond Index*, returned 5.76% for the same period.

How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
Interest rates were somewhat volatile within a range during the fiscal year as Fed easing expectations were priced in and out of the market. As a result, the fund’s interest-rate strategy was not a major contributor to returns. Short-term rates ended marginally lower over the time frame, which helped performance.
With the global capital markets awash in cash and risk tolerances at high levels, all non-Treasury sectors once again had strong returns through the first quarter of 2007. Much of this outperformance was reversed in the second quarter as subprime loan issues escalated at several hedge funds and investors retreated to the safety of Treasury securities. The fund had purchased credit protection on certain corporate issuers and index products, which boosted performance as risk premiums on these securities increased (credit protection is a credit default swap that will increase in value if the price of the bond falls).
The housing market failed to recover from its year-long malaise, and mortgage securities backed by newly originated subprime and alternative documentation loans (i.e., loans requiring little or no verification of income) performed poorly amid growing concerns about higher levels of mortgage defaults and foreclosures. The portfolio’s focus on seasoned loans to prime borrowers had a modestly positive impact on performance as concerns about subprime loans mounted.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
We became more defensive on corporate credit risk due to heightened risk of leveraged buyouts and expensive valuations. We did this by selling a large percentage of our corporate bond holdings and buying credit protection on both diversified baskets of bonds and on single issuers (credit protection is a credit default swap that will increase in value if the price of the bond falls). The fund had no exposure to newly issued subprime or prime loans.
In the course of the fiscal year, we increasingly emphasized holdings in mortgage bonds originated in 2004 or earlier. These securities performed well in the slower housing/higher mortgage delinquency environment and should continue to do so until the housing market recovers.
We increased our overweight to commercial mortgage-backed securities, which is a high-quality asset with minimal event risk. This strategy failed to gain traction during the fiscal year as large supply of new issues caused the sector to lag.

First American Funds Annual Report 2007 11
Short Term Bond FUND
Investment Objective: current income while maintaining a high degree of principal stability
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Short Term Bond Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.86% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.60% without taking the sales charge into account). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman 1-3 Year Government/ Credit Bond Index*, returned 5.34% for the same period.
What were the general economic and market conditions during the fiscal year?
Economic growth was generally below the economy’s long-term potential during the second half of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007. Most indicators point to an improvement in growth during the second quarter to slightly above the economy’s long-term potential, but the improvement in growth primarily reflects an increase in production to rebuild inventories. Final domestic demand growth has moderated, and this moderation is expected to persist during the second half of 2007 as the housing market remains weak, home prices decline, and higher energy prices have a negative effect on real purchasing power. But at the same time, strong global growth should continue to provide a positive offset, with U.S. export growth helping to support U.S. economic activity.
Core inflation has slowed faster than anticipated and is now back within the Federal Reserve’s comfort zone. But overall inflation risks remain elevated, with energy and food prices continuing to rise and the low unemployment rate suggesting that resource utilization remains at a relatively high level. The combination of moderate growth, decelerating inflation, and high levels of resource utilization has resulted in the Fed’s leaving policy rates unchanged over the past year. The Fed should have sufficient flexibility to lower policy rates to support economic activity, should that be necessary, given the current inflation environment. While bond yields rose substantially from early May to mid-June, they have since stabilized and currently remain below the Fed funds rate. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
Interest rates were somewhat volatile within a range during the fiscal year as Fed easing expectations were priced in and out of the market. As a result, the fund’s interest-rate strategy was not a major contributor to returns. Short-term rates ended marginally lower over the time frame, which helped performance.
With the global capital markets awash in cash and risk tolerances at high levels, all non-Treasury sectors once again had strong returns through the first quarter of 2007. Much of this outperformance was reversed in the second quarter as subprime loan issues escalated at several hedge funds and investors retreated to the safety of Treasury securities. The fund had purchased credit protection on certain corporate issuers and index products, which boosted performance as risk premiums on these securities increased (credit protection is a credit default swap that will increase in value if the price of the bond falls).
The housing market failed to recover from its year-long malaise, and mortgage securities backed by newly originated subprime and alternative documentation loans (i.e., loans requiring little or no verification of income) performed poorly amid growing concerns about higher levels of mortgage defaults and foreclosures. The portfolio upgraded the collateral quality of its asset-backed and mortgage-backed holdings throughout the fiscal year and had minimal exposure to securities backed by loans to nonprime borrowers. This benefited the portfolio as the problems in the subprime sector gathered steam in the second quarter of 2007.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
We became more defensive on corporate credit risk due to heightened risk of leveraged buyouts and expensive valuations. We did this by selling a large percentage of our corporate bond holdings and buying credit protection on both diversified baskets of bonds and on single issuers (credit protection is a credit default swap that will increase in value if the price of the bond falls). The fund is now positioned to benefit if corporate bonds underperform.
We increased our overweight to commercial mortgage-backed securities, which is a high-quality asset with minimal event risk. This strategy failed to gain traction during the fiscal year as large supply of new issues caused the sector to lag.
When the premium for holding higher-risk assets began to increase in the second quarter of 2007, as several hedge funds had to deal with the demands of their creditors, and investors began a general flight to higher-quality securities, the portfolio increased its exposure to high-quality securities by receiving swaps (i.e., interest payments from another party on a specific principal) with a fixed interest rate. This strategic move was made by the fund in expectation of higher-quality securities outperforming lower quality.

First American Funds Annual Report 2007 13
Total Return Bond FUND
Investment Objective: high current income consistent with prudent risk to capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American Total Return Bond Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 4.73% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 4.36% without taking the sales charge into account). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index*, returned 6.12% for the same period.
What were the general economic and market conditions during the fiscal year?
Economic growth was generally below the economy’s long-term potential during the second half of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007. Most indicators point to an improvement in growth during the second quarter to slightly above the economy’s long-term potential, but the improvement in growth primarily reflects an increase in production to rebuild inventories. Final domestic demand growth has moderated, and this moderation is expected to persist during the second half of 2007 as the housing market remains weak, home prices decline, and higher energy prices have a negative effect on real purchasing power. But at the same time, strong global growth should continue to provide a positive offset, with U.S. export growth helping to support U.S. economic activity.
Core inflation has slowed faster than anticipated and is now back within the Federal Reserve’s comfort zone. But overall inflation risks remain elevated, with energy and food prices continuing to rise and the low unemployment rate suggesting that resource utilization remains at a relatively high level. The combination of moderate growth, decelerating inflation, and high levels of resource utilization has resulted in the Fed’s leaving policy rates unchanged over the past year. The Fed should have sufficient flexibility to lower policy rates to support economic activity, should that be necessary, given the current inflation environment. While bond yields rose substantially from early May to mid-June, they have since stabilized and currently remain below the Fed funds rate. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
Interest rates were somewhat volatile within a range during the fiscal year as Fed easing expectations were priced in and out of the market. As a result, the fund’s interest-rate strategy was not a major contributor to returns. Short-term rates ended marginally lower over the time frame, which helped performance.
With the global capital markets awash in cash and risk tolerances at high levels, all non-Treasury sectors once again had strong returns through the first quarter of 2007. Much of this outperformance was reversed in the second quarter as subprime loan issues escalated at several hedge funds and investors retreated to the safety of Treasury securities. The fund had purchased credit protection on certain corporate issuers and index products, which boosted performance as risk premiums on these securities increased (credit protection is a credit default swap that will increase in value if the price of the bond falls).
The housing market failed to recover from its year-long malaise, and mortgage securities backed by newly originated subprime and alternative documentation loans (i.e., loans requiring little or no verification of income) performed poorly amid growing concerns about higher levels of mortgage defaults and foreclosures. The portfolio’s focus on seasoned loans to prime borrowers was beneficial to the fund during the fiscal year, confirming our belief that these loans offer an attractive risk/return profile.

14 First American Funds Annual Report 2007
High-yield and emerging-market bonds performed very well during the fiscal year. Positions in these sectors added to the fund’s return. In the latter half of the fiscal year, these positions were gradually reduced as they reached our valuation targets.
The dollar remained volatile during the fiscal year, generally depreciating against the currencies of countries with higher yields than the United States, but significantly appreciating against the yen. The dollar and U.S. bonds benefited as Asian nations recycled their current account surpluses by investing the savings. U.S. bonds outperformed most foreign markets following the Fed’s end to monetary tightening. Foreign positions detracted from fund’s performance during the fiscal year.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
We became more defensive on corporate credit risk due to heightened risk of leveraged buyouts and expensive valuations. We did this by selling a large percentage of our corporate bond holdings gradually during the year. We also bought credit protection on both diversified baskets of bonds and on single issuers (credit protection is a credit default swap that will increase in value if the price of the bond falls). While this strategy failed to make meaningful impact on performance during the fiscal year, we believe that a defensive positioning in credit will prove beneficial in the coming quarters if corporate bonds should underperform.
We also assumed a more defensive position on high-yield and emerging-market debt, given expensive valuations and deteriorating fundamentals. We reduced these holdings as their period of outperformance was nearing the end. We also bought credit protection to hedge our remaining holdings and to benefit from further underperformance of these sectors.
In the course of the fiscal year, we increasingly emphasized holdings in mortgage bonds originated in 2004 or earlier. These securities performed well in the slower housing/higher mortgage delinquency environment and should continue to do so until the housing market recovers.
We increased our overweight to commercial mortgage-backed securities, which is a high-quality asset with minimal event risk. This strategy failed to gain traction during the fiscal year as large supply of new issues caused the sector to lag.
The fund was positioned for a weaker dollar, as both cyclical and long-term economic trends increasingly pressured the currency. We maintained positions in high-quality foreign government bonds which are attractive in comparison to the United States.

U.S. Government Mortgage FUND
Investment Objective: high current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital
How did the fund perform for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007?
The First American U.S. Government Mortgage Fund (the “fund”), Class Y shares, returned 5.23% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 (Class A shares returned 5.07% without taking the sales charge into account). By comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Mortgage-Backed Securities Index*, returned 6.39% for the same period.
What were the general economic and market conditions during the fiscal year?
Economic growth was generally below the economy’s long-term potential during the second half of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007. Most indicators point to an improvement in growth during the second quarter to slightly above the economy’s long-term potential, but the improvement in growth primarily reflects an increase in production to rebuild inventories. Final domestic demand growth has moderated, and this moderation is expected to persist during the second half of 2007 as the housing market remains weak, home prices decline, and higher energy prices have a negative effect on real purchasing power. But at the same time, strong global growth should continue to provide a positive offset, with U.S. export growth helping to support U.S. economic activity.
Core inflation has slowed faster than anticipated and is now back within the Federal Reserve’s comfort zone. But overall inflation risks remain elevated, with energy and food prices continuing to rise and the low unemployment rate suggesting that resource utilization remains at a relatively high level. The combination of moderate growth, decelerating inflation, and high levels of resource utilization has resulted in the Fed’s leaving policy rates unchanged over the past year. The Fed should have sufficient flexibility to lower policy rates to support economic activity, should that be necessary, given the current inflation environment. While bond yields rose substantially from early May to mid-June, they have since stabilized and currently remain below the Fed funds rate. Subsequent to fiscal year end, liquidity conditions in the fixed income markets became challenged and the situation is ongoing. The Fed has taken initial steps to improve liquidity, however it remains to be seen what impact liquidity conditions will have on the markets going forward.
How did market conditions and investment strategies affect the fund’s performance?
Interest rates were somewhat volatile within a range during the fiscal year as Fed easing expectations were priced in and out of the market. As a result, the fund’s interest-rate strategy was not a major contributor to returns. Short-term rates ended marginally lower over the time frame, which helped performance.
U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities performed well in the second half of 2006 as the stable-rate environment and general low-volatility landscape were conducive to stable prepayments and strong income generation. As we entered 2007, high levels of refinancing activity out of resetting adjustable-rate mortgage bonds into fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities created a supply/demand imbalance that the market is currently trying to digest. Fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities have accordingly underperformed recently, and the portfolio benefited modestly from this as we were overweight in hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage securities and other short-duration mortgage bonds.
What strategic moves were made by the fund and why?
We became more defensive on mortgage-backed securities in the first quarter of 2007 due to the weaker housing market and higher levels of mortgage supply. In the portfolio, we underweighted 30-year fixed-rate discount mortgage-backed securities and focused on seasoned mortgage bonds (originating prior to 2005) that have more embedded home price appreciation, which will result in more borrower mobility and more stable prepayments. We also overweighted hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage bonds and short structured mortgage-backed securities, which have lower price volatility than mortgage-backed pass-through securities (i.e., those guaranteed and issued by the Government National Mortgage Association).
We augmented our position in AAA-rated commercial mortgage-backed securities. The subprime loan contagion caused commercial mortgage-backed security yields to rise (an unwarranted development, in our view), and we believe this sector will outperform mortgage-backed pass-throughs over the balance of the year.
When the premium for holding higher-risk assets began to increase in the second quarter of 2007, as several hedge funds had to deal with the demands of their creditors and investors began a general flight to higher-quality securities, the portfolio increased its exposure to high-quality securities by receiving swaps (i.e., interest payments from another party on a specific principal) with a fixed interest rate. This strategic move was made by the fund in expectation of higher-quality securities outperforming lower quality.

As a shareholder of one or more of the funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 1, 2007 to June 30, 2007.
Actual Expenses
For each class of each fund, two lines are presented in the table below – the first line for each class provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested in the particular fund and class, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value in the fund and class divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” for your fund and class to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class of each fund, the second line for each class provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the respective fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare these 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of the tables for each class of each fund is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
First American Investment Funds, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of the Core Bond, High Income Bond, Inflation Protected Securities, Intermediate Government Bond, Intermediate Term Bond, Short Term Bond, Total Return Bond, and U.S. Government Mortgage Funds (each a series of First American Investment Funds, Inc.) (the “funds”) as of June 30, 2007, and the related statements of operations, changes in net assets and financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and the financial highlights are the responsibility of the funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included verification by examination of securities held by the custodian as of June 30, 2007 and confirmation of the securities held by correspondence with brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights as referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the funds listed above of First American Investment Funds, Inc. at June 30, 2007, the results of their operations, changes in their net assets and their financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

2 > | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
| |
| The significant accounting policies followed by the funds are as follows: |
|
| SECURITY VALUATIONS – Security valuations for the funds’ investments are furnished by an independent pricing service that has been approved by the funds’ board of directors. Investments in equity securities that are traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the Nasdaq national market system) are stated at the last quoted sales price if readily available for such securities on each business day. For securities traded on the Nasdaq national market system, the funds utilize the Nasdaq Official Closing Price which compares the last trade to the bid/ask range of a security. If the last trade falls within the bid/ask range, then that price will be the closing price. If the last trade is outside the bid/ask range, and falls above the ask, the ask price will be the closing price. If the last trade is below the bid, the bid will be the closing price. Other equity securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed equity securities for which no sale was reported on that date are stated at the last quoted bid price. Debt obligations exceeding 60 days to maturity are valued by an independent pricing service. The pricing service may employ methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-dealer supplied valuations, or other formula-driven valuation techniques. These techniques generally consider such factors as yields or prices of bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity, ratings, and general market conditions. Securities for which prices are not available from an independent pricing service, but where an active market exists, are valued using market quotations obtained from one or more dealers that make markets in the securities or from a widely used quotation system. When market quotations are not readily available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by procedures established and approved by the funds’ board of directors. Some of the factors which may be considered in determining fair value are fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and duration of any restrictions on disposition (trading in similar securities of the same issuer or comparable companies); information from broker-dealers; and an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold. If events occur that materially affect the value of securities (including non-U.S. securities) between the close of trading in those securities and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the securities will be valued at fair value. Price movements in futures contracts and ADRs (American Depositary Receipts), and various other indices, may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. The use of fair value pricing by a fund may cause the net asset value of its shares to differ significantly from net asset value that would be calculated without regard to such considerations. As of June 30, 2007, Core Bond |

| |
| Fund, High Income Bond Fund, and Short Term Bond Fund held fair value securities with a value of $438, $0, and $0, respectively, or 0.0%, 0.0%, and 0.0%, respectively, of total net assets. Debt obligations with 60 days or less remaining until maturity will be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities are valued at the closing prices on the principal exchanges on which they trade. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates. Exchange rates are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at the respective net asset value of each underlying fund on the valuation date. |
|
| SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME – For financial statement purposes, the funds record security transactions on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization of bond premium and discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Security gains and losses are determined on the basis of identified cost, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. The resulting gain/loss is calculated as the difference between the sales price and the underlying cost of the security on the transaction date. |
|
| DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS – Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and are payable in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the fund at net asset value on the last business day of each month. Any net realized capital gains on sales of a fund’s securities are distributed to shareholders at least annually. |
|
| FEDERAL TAXES – Each fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. Each fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company as provided in Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and to distribute all taxable income, if any, to its shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise taxes is required. |
|
| Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes because of temporary or permanent book/tax differences. These differences are primarily due to deferred wash sale and straddle losses, paydowns on pass through obligations, expiration of capital loss carryforwards, and tax mark-to-market adjustments under Section 311(e) of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the fiscal period that the differences arise. |
|
| On the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, the following reclassifications were made: |

| The tax character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from its ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. In addition, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal period in which the amounts are distributed may differ from the period or year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the fund. The distributions paid during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the nine-month fiscal period ended June 30, 2006, and the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, were as follows (adjusted by dividends payable as of June 30, 2007, June 30, 2006, and September 30, 2005): |

| The difference between book and tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is primarily due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles, tax mark-to-market adjustments for certain derivatives in accordance with IRC Section 1256, and tax mark-to-market adjustments made under Section 311(e) of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997. |

|
| |
| FUTURES TRANSACTIONS – In order to gain exposure or protect against changes in the market and to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet redemption requests, each fund may enter into futures contracts. Upon entering into a futures contract, the fund is required to deposit cash or pledge U.S. government securities. The margin required for a futures contract is set by the exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments, which are dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security or securities, are made or received by the fund each day (daily variation margin) and are recorded as unrealized gains (losses) until the contract is closed. When the contract is closed, the fund records a realized gain (loss) equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the fund’s basis in the contract. |
|
| Risks of entering into futures contracts, in general, include the possibility that there will not be a perfect price correlation between the futures contracts and the underlying securities. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a futures position prior to its maturity date. Third, the purchase of a futures contract involves the risk that a fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate a futures transaction. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the amount reflected in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Unrealized gains (losses) on outstanding positions in futures contracts held at the close of the year will be recognized as capital gains (losses) for federal income tax purposes. |
|
| As of June 30, 2007, the following funds had outstanding futures contracts as disclosed in their Schedule of Investments: Core Bond Fund, High Income Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, Short Term Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund. |
|
| SWAP AGREEMENTS – The funds may invest in swap agreements. A swap is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one instrument for the return generated by another instrument. The funds may enter into interest rate and credit default swap agreements to manage exposure to interest rates and credit risk. |
|
| Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest (e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal). As of June 30, 2007, the following funds had outstanding interest rate swap agreements: Core Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, Short Term Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund. |
|
| In a credit default swap, one party makes a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a specified issuer on its obligation (typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country). The fund may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of sovereign issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the fund owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As of June 30, 2007, the following funds had outstanding credit default swap agreements: Core Bond Fund, High Income Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, Short Term Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund. |
|
| Swaps are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap agreement is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received by the fund are included as part of other income on the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates. |
|
| OPTIONS TRANSACTIONS – The funds may utilize options in an attempt to manage market or business risk or enhance returns. When a call or put option is written, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability. The liability is marked-to-market daily to reflect the current market value of the option written. When an option written expires, a gain is realized in the amount of the premium originally received. If a closing purchase contract is entered into, a gain or loss is realized in the |
First American Funds Annual Report 2007 79
Notes to Financial Statements continued
| |
| amount of the original premium less the cost of the closing transaction. If a written call option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale are increased by the premium originally received. If a written put option is exercised, the amount of the premium originally received reduces the cost of the security which is purchased upon exercise of the option. As of June 30, 2007, Core Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, and Total Return Bond Fund held options written as disclosed in their Schedule of Investments. |
|
| Options purchased are recorded as investments and marked-to-market daily to reflect the current market value of the option contract. If an option purchased expires, a loss is realized in the amount of the cost of the option. If a closing transaction is entered into, a gain or loss is realized to the extent that the proceeds from the sale are greater or less than the cost of the option. If a purchased put option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security by adjusting the proceeds from such sale by the amount of the premium originally paid. If a purchased call option is exercised, the cost of the security purchased upon exercise is increased by the premium originally paid. As of June 30, 2007, no fund held options purchased. |
|
| INFLATION-INDEXED BONDS – The funds may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond however, interest will be paid based on a principal value which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity. |
|
| FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION – The books and records of the High Income Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, and the Total Return Bond Fund relating to the funds’ non-U.S. dollar denominated investments are maintained in U.S. dollars on the following basis: |
| | |
| • | market value of investment securities, assets, and liabilities are translated at the current rate of exchange; and |
|
| • | purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. |
| |
| The funds do not isolate the portion of gains and losses on investments in debt securities that is due to changes in the foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of debt securities. The funds isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency rates when determining the gain or loss upon sale or maturity of foreign currency denominated debt obligations pursuant to the federal income tax regulations. Such amounts are categorized as foreign currency gain(loss) for both financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes. |
|
| The funds report certain foreign currency-related transactions as components of realized gains for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. |
|
| For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, High Income Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, and Total Return Bond Fund had non-U.S. dollar denominated investments with a total value of $427, $549, and $22,482, respectively, or 0.2%, 0.2%, and 2.6%, respectively, of total net assets. |
|
| SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS – Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by a fund on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis can take place up to a month or more after the transaction. Such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuations, and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. Each fund segregates assets with a market value equal to or greater than the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis may increase the volatility of a fund’s net asset value if the fund makes such purchases while remaining substantially fully invested. At June 30, 2007, Core Bond Fund, High Income Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund had when-issued or forward-commitment securities outstanding with a total cost of $74,167, $3,745, $34,068, and $30,432, respectively. |
|
| In connection with the ability to purchase securities on a when-issued basis, each fund may also enter into dollar rolls in which the fund sells securities purchased on a forward-commitment basis and simultaneously contracts with a counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon, and maturity), but not identical securities on a specified future date. As an inducement for the fund to “rollover” its purchase commitments, the fund receives negotiated amounts in the form of reductions of the purchase price of the commitment. Dollar rolls are considered a form of leverage. As of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the funds had no outstanding dollar roll transactions. |
|
| ILLIQUID OR RESTRICTED SECURITIES – A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market. Securities are generally considered liquid if they can be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the price at which the security is valued by the fund. Illiquid securities may be valued under methods approved by the funds’ board of |
80 First American Funds Annual Report 2007
| |
| directors as reflecting fair value. Each fund intends to invest no more than 15% of its net assets (determined at the time of purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. Certain restricted securities may be considered illiquid. Restricted securities are often purchased in private placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, may have contractual restrictions on resale, and may be valued under methods approved by the funds’ board of directors as reflecting fair value. Certain restricted securities eligible for resale to qualified institutional investors, including Rule 144A securities, are not subject to the limitation on a fund’s investment in illiquid securities if they are determined to be liquid in accordance with procedures adopted by the funds’ board of directors. At June 30, 2007, Core Bond Fund, High Income Bond Fund, and Short Term Bond Fund had investments in illiquid securities with a total value of $494, $9, and $0, respectively, or 0.0%, 0.0%, and 0.0%, respectively, of total net assets. |

| SECURITIES LENDING – In order to generate additional income, each fund may lend securities representing up to one-third of the value of its total assets (which includes collateral for securities on loan) to broker-dealers, banks, or other institutional borrowers of securities. Each fund’s policy is to receive collateral from the borrower in the form of cash, U.S. government securities, or other high-grade debt obligations equal to at least 100% of the value of securities loaned. If the value of the securities on loan increases, additional collateral is received from the borrower. As with other extensions or credit, there may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the security fail financially. |
|
| FAF Advisors, Inc. (“FAF Advisors”) serves as the securities lending agent for the funds in transactions involving the lending of portfolio securities on behalf of the funds. FAF Advisors acts as the securities lending agent pursuant to, and subject to compliance with conditions contained in, an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). FAF Advisors receives fees as a percentage of each fund’s net income from securities lending transactions. Effective January 23, 2007, collateral for securities on loan is invested in a money market fund administered by FAF Advisors and FAF Advisors receives an administration fee equal to 0.02% of such fund’s average daily net assets in this money market fund. Securities lending fees paid to FAF Advisors by the funds for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, were as follows: |
| | | | |
Fund | | Amount | |
|
Core Bond Fund | | $ | 365 | |
High Income Bond Fund | | | 53 | |
Inflation Protected Securities Fund | | | 84 | |
Intermediate Term Bond Fund | | | 163 | |
Short Term Bond Fund | | | 59 | |
Total Return Bond Fund | | | 113 | |
U.S. Government Mortgage Fund | | | 20 | |
|
| |
| Income from securities lending is recorded on the Statement of Operations as securities lending income net of fees paid to FAF Advisors. |
|
| EXPENSES – Expenses that are directly related to one of the funds are charged directly to that fund. Other operating expenses are allocated to the funds on several bases, including evenly across all funds, allocated based on relative net assets of all funds within the First American Family of Funds, or a combination of both methods. Class specific expenses, such as distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees, are borne by that class. Income, other expenses, and realized and unrealized gains and losses of a fund are allocated to each respective class in proportion to the relative net assets of each class. |
|
| INTERFUND LENDING PROGRAM – Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds, along with other registered investment companies in the First American Family of Funds, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the funds to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating funds. The funds did not have any interfund lending transactions during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. |
|
| DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN – Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), non-interested directors of the First American Family of Funds may participate and elect to defer receipt of part or all of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of selected open-end First American Funds as designated by the board of directors. All amounts in the Plan are 100% vested and accounts under the Plan are obligations of the |
First American Funds Annual Report 2007 81
Notes to Financial Statements continued
| |
| funds. Deferred amounts remain in the funds until distributed in accordance with the Plan. |
| |
| USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
| |
| INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES – Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (the “Agreement”), FAF Advisors manages each fund’s assets and furnishes related office facilities, equipment, research, and personnel. The Agreement requires each fund to pay FAF Advisors a monthly fee based upon average daily net assets. The annual fee for each fund is as follows: |
| | | | |
Fund | | |
|
Core Bond Fund | | | 0.50 | % |
High Income Bond Fund | | | 0.70 | |
Inflation Protected Securities Fund | | | 0.50 | |
Intermediate Government Bond Fund | | | 0.50 | |
Intermediate Term Bond Fund | | | 0.50 | |
Short Term Bond Fund | | | 0.50 | |
Total Return Bond Fund | | | 0.60 | |
U.S. Government Mortgage Fund | | | 0.50 | |
|
| |
| FAF Advisors has agreed to waive fees and reimburse other fund expenses at least through June 30, 2007, so that total fund operating expenses, as a percentage of average daily net assets, do not exceed the following amounts: |

| The funds may invest in related money market funds that are series of First American Funds, Inc., subject to certain limitations. In order to avoid the payment of duplicative investment advisory fees to FAF Advisors, which acts as the investment advisor to both the investing funds and the related money market funds, FAF Advisors will reimburse each investing fund an amount equal to that portion of FAF Advisors’ investment advisory fee received from the related money market funds that is attributable to the assets of the investing fund. |
|
| ADMINISTRATION FEES – FAF Advisors serves as the funds’ administrator pursuant to an administration agreement between FAF Advisors and the funds. U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (“USBFS”) serves as sub-administrator pursuant to a sub-administration agreement between USBFS and FAF Advisors. FAF Advisors is a subsidiary of U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”). Both U.S. Bank and USBFS are direct subsidiaries of U.S. Bancorp. Under the administration agreement, FAF Advisors is compensated to provide, or compensates other entities to provide, services to the funds. These services include various legal, oversight and administrative services and accounting services. The funds pay FAF Advisors administration fees, which are calculated daily and paid monthly, equal to each fund’s pro rata share of an amount equal, on a annual basis, to 0.25% of the aggregate average daily net assets of all open-end mutual funds in the First American Family of Funds up to $8 billion, 0.235% on the next $17 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, 0.22% on the next $25 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, and 0.20% of the aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $50 billion. All fees paid to the sub-administrator are paid from the administration fee. In addition to these fees, the funds may reimburse FAF Advisors and the sub- administrator for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing administration services. |
|
| TRANSFER AGENT FEES – USBFS serves as the funds’ transfer agent pursuant to a transfer agent agreement with FAIF. The funds are charged transfer agent fees on a per shareholder account basis, subject to a minimum fee per share class. These fees are charged to each fund based upon the number of accounts within that fund. In addition to these fees, the funds may reimburse USBFS for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing transfer agent services. |
|
| CUSTODIAN FEES – U.S. Bank serves as the custodian for each fund pursuant to a custodian agreement with FAIF. The custodian fee charged for each fund is equal to an annual rate of 0.005% of average daily net assets. All fees are computed daily and paid monthly. |
|
| Under the custodian agreement, interest earned on uninvested cash balances is used to reduce a portion of each fund’s custodian expenses. These credits, if any, are disclosed as “Indirect payments from custodian” in the Statements of Operations. Conversely, the custodian charges a fee for any cash overdrafts incurred, which increases the fund’s custodian expenses. |

7 > | Concentration of Risks |
| |
| High Income Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, and Total Return Bond Fund invest in lower-rated (e.g., rated Ba or lower by Moody’s or BB or lower by Standard & Poor’s or Fitch) corporate and foreign debt obligations, which are commonly referred to as “junk bonds.” Lower-rated securities will usually offer higher yields than higher-rated securities. However, there is more risk associated with these investments. These lower-rated bonds may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic conditions than investment grade bonds. Lower-rated securities tend to have more price volatility and carry more risk to principal than higher-rated securities. |
| |
| The funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote. |
| |
9 > | New Accounting Pronouncement |
| |
| On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the funds’ tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Recent Securities and Exchange Commission guidance allows implementing FIN 48 in fund net asset value calculations as late as the funds’ last net asset value calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period. As a result, the funds will incorporate FIN 48 in their semiannual report on December 31, 2007. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact in the Financial Statements has not yet been determined. |
|
| In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosure about the use of fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. As of June 30, 2007, the funds do not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements; however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value and the effect of certain measurements reported in the Statement of Operations for a fiscal period. |

APPROVAL OF THE FUNDS’ INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
| |
| The Board of Directors of the Funds (the “Board”), which is comprised entirely of independent directors, oversees the management of each Fund and, as required by law, determines annually whether to renew the Funds’ advisory agreement with FAF Advisors, Inc. (“FAF Advisors”). |
|
| At a meeting on May 1-3, 2007, the Board considered information relating to the Funds’ investment advisory agreement with FAF Advisors (the “Agreement”). In advance of the meeting, the Board received materials relating to the Agreement, and had the opportunity to ask questions and request further information in connection with their consideration. At a subsequent meeting on June 19-21, 2007, the Board concluded its consideration of and approved the Agreement through June 30, 2008. |
|
| Although the Agreement, which is with First American Investment Funds, Inc., relates to all of the Funds, the Board separately considered and approved the Agreement with respect to each Fund. In considering the Agreement, the Board, advised by independent legal counsel, reviewed and considered the factors it deemed relevant, including: (1) the nature, quality and extent of FAF Advisors’ services to the Fund, (2) the investment performance of the Fund, (3) the profitability of FAF Advisors related to the Fund, including an analysis of FAF Advisors’ cost of providing services and comparative expense information, (4) whether economies of scale may be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels are adjusted to enable Fund investors to share in these potential economies of scale, and (5) other benefits that accrue to FAF Advisors through its relationship with the Funds. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any single factor which alone was responsible for the Board’s decision to approve the Agreement. |
|
| Before approving the Agreement, the Board met in executive session with its independent counsel on numerous occasions to consider the materials provided by FAF Advisors and the terms of the Agreement. Based on its evaluation of those |
First American Funds Annual Report 2007 89
NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS continued
| |
| materials, the Board concluded that the Agreement is fair and in the best interests of the shareholders of each Fund. In reaching its conclusions, the Board considered the following: |
Nature, Quality and Extent of Investment Advisory Services
| |
| The Board examined the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by FAF Advisors to each Fund. The Board reviewed FAF Advisors’ key personnel who provide investment management services to each Fund as well as the fact that, under the Agreement, FAF Advisors has the authority and responsibility to make and execute investment decisions for each Fund within the framework of that Fund’s investment policies and restrictions, subject to review by the Board. The Board further considered that FAF Advisors’ duties with respect to each Fund include (i) investment research and security selection, (ii) adherence to (and monitoring compliance with) the Fund’s investment policies and restrictions and the Investment Company Act of 1940, and (iii) monitoring the performance of the various organizations providing services to the Fund, including the Fund’s distributor, sub-administrator, transfer agent and custodian. Finally, the Board considered FAF Advisors’ representation that the services provided by FAF Advisors under the Agreement are the type of services customarily provided by investment advisors in the fund industry. |
|
| The Board also considered compliance reports about FAF Advisors from the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer. |
|
| Based on the foregoing, the Board concluded that each Fund is likely to benefit from the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by FAF Advisors under the Agreement. |
Investment Performance of the Funds
| |
| The Board considered the performance of each Fund, including how the Fund performed versus the median performance of a group of comparable funds selected by an independent data service (the “performance universe”) and how the Fund performed versus its benchmark index. The Board also considered that, in reviewing the comparative performance of income funds, the different expense levels of a Fund’s share classes can result in different net performance results for each of those classes. Thus, while the Board considered the performance of all classes, it focused on Class Y shares, which, because they have the lowest total expense ratios, offered the most meaningful data on performance. For this reason, the discussion below relates to the performance of Class Y shares. The performance periods considered by the Board ended on January 31, 2007. |
|
| Core Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed its performance universe median for the one-, three- and ten-year periods. The Board also considered that the Fund slightly underperformed that median for the five-year period. Though the Fund underperformed its benchmark for those periods, the Board considered FAF Advisors’ assertion that most of the funds in the performance universe also had underperformed the benchmark and that it was, therefore, more meaningful to compare the Fund to other, similar actively managed funds (those in the peer universe). The Board also noted recent investment strategy changes implemented by FAF Advisors. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s outperformance of its performance universe for most periods and the Fund’s investment strategy changes, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| High Income Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed its performance universe median for the one-, three-and five-year periods. Though the Fund underperformed its benchmark for those periods, the Board considered FAF Advisors’ assertion that most of the funds in the performance universe also had underperformed the benchmark and that it was, therefore, more meaningful to compare the Fund to other, similar actively managed funds (those in the peer universe). The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s strong performance compared to that of its performance universe, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Inflation Protected Securities Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed its performance universe median for the one-year period, though it underperformed its benchmark for that period. The Board also considered that the Fund has a relatively short history. The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s outperformance of the performance universe and its short operating history, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Intermediate Government Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund underperformed its performance universe median and benchmark for the one- and three-year periods. The Board also considered, however, that the Fund is a unique offering in the First American family of funds. The Board noted that, while the Fund’s goal of providing investors with current income that is exempt from state income tax presumably meets the needs of investors who have purchased shares of the Fund, it results in an investment strategy that does not lend itself well to comparisons. For example, the Fund can invest only in U.S. Treasury securities and certain state tax-exempt agency securities, whereas most of the funds in the peer universe also can invest in other agency obligations, including mortgage-backed securities. The Board concluded that the |
90 First American Funds Annual Report 2007
| |
| Fund’s performance has been acceptable in light of the Fund’s unique investment mandate, and that it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Intermediate Term Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed its performance universe median for the three-, five- and ten-year periods and slightly underperformed that median for the one-year period. Though the Fund underperformed its benchmark for every period, the Board considered FAF Advisors’ assertion that most of the funds in the performance universe also had underperformed the benchmark and that it was, therefore, more meaningful to compare the Fund to other, similar actively managed funds (those in the peer universe). The Board concluded that, in light of the Fund’s strong performance compared to that of its performance universe, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Short Term Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed its performance universe median for the five- and ten-year periods though it underperformed that median for the one- and three-year periods. The Board also noted that the Fund underperformed its benchmark for all periods. The Board considered that FAF Advisors has recently implemented investment policy changes that FAF Advisors believes will help improve the Fund’s performance. The Board also noted FAF Advisors’ assertion that the Fund’s recent underperformance of its performance universe results, in part, from the fact that most of the funds in that universe manage to shorter or longer duration benchmarks than the Fund’s one- to three-year benchmark. The Board concluded that, in light of these and other considerations, it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| Total Return Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund significantly outperformed its performance universe median and outperformed its benchmark for the three- and five-year periods, though it underperformed for the one-year period due mostly to its non-dollar exposure. In light of the Fund’s strong longer-term investment performance, the Board concluded that it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
|
| U.S. Government Mortgage Fund. The Board considered that the Fund outperformed or performed competitively versus its performance universe median for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods. Though the Fund underperformed its benchmark for those periods, the Board considered FAF Advisors’ assertion that, given the risk-reward profile of the types of assets in which the Fund invests, the Fund is not likely to outperform the benchmark on a net-of-expenses basis. In light of this and of the Fund’s competitive performance against its performance universe, the Board concluded that it would be in the interest of the Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
Costs of Services and Profits Realized by FAF Advisors
| |
| The Board reviewed FAF Advisors’ estimated costs in serving as the Funds’ investment manager, including the costs associated with the personnel and systems necessary to manage each Fund. The Board also considered the reported profitability of FAF Advisors and its affiliates resulting from their relationship with each Fund. For each Fund, the Board reviewed fee and expense information as compared to that of other funds and accounts managed by FAF Advisors and of comparable funds managed by other advisers. The Board found that while the management fees for FAF Advisors’ institutional separate accounts are lower than the Funds’ management fees, the Funds receive additional services from FAF Advisors that separate accounts do not receive. |
|
| Using information provided by an independent data service, the Board also evaluated each Fund’s advisory fee compared to the median advisory fee for other mutual funds similar in size, character and investment strategy, and each Fund’s total expense ratio after waivers compared to the median total expense ratio, after waivers, of comparable funds. In connection with its review of Fund fees and expenses, the Board asked FAF Advisors to articulate its pricing philosophy. FAF Advisors responded that it attempts generally to maintain each Fund’s total operating expenses at a level that approximates its peer group median total expense ratio. FAF Advisors noted that, in keeping with this pricing philosophy, it intended to waive its investment advisory fees to the extent necessary to maintain the Funds’ total expense ratios at levels generally in line with their respective peer groups. |
|
| Further detail considered by the Board regarding the advisory fees and total expense ratios of each Fund is set forth below: |
|
| Core Bond Fund, Intermediate Government Bond Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, and Short Term Bond Fund. The Board considered that each Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio, after waivers, were lower than those of the peer group median. The Board concluded that each Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio are reasonable in light of the services provided. |
|
| High Income Bond Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s advisory fee, after waivers, was equal to that of the peer group median and that the total expense ratio, after waivers, was lower than that of the peer group median. The Board concluded that the Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio are reasonable in light of the services provided. |

NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS continued
| |
| Inflation Protected Securities Fund. The Board considered that the Fund’s advisory fee, after waivers, was slightly higher than that of the peer group median and that the total expense ratio, after waivers, was equal to that of the peer group median. The Board concluded that the Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio are reasonable in light of the services provided. |
|
| Total Return Bond Fund and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund. The Board considered that each Fund’s advisory fee, after waivers, was lower than that of the peer group median and that the total expense ratio, after waivers, was slightly higher than the peer group median, though consistent with FAF Advisors’ pricing philosophy. The Board concluded that each Fund’s advisory fee and total expense ratio are reasonable in light of the services provided. |
Economies of Scale in Providing Investment Advisory Services
| |
| The Board considered whether each Fund’s investment advisory fee reflects the potential for economies of scale for the benefit of Fund shareholders. Based on information provided by FAF Advisors, the Board noted that profitability will likely increase somewhat as assets grow over time. The Board considered that, although the Funds do not have advisory fee breakpoints in place, FAF Advisors has committed to waive advisory fees to the extent necessary to keep each Fund’s total expenses generally in line with the median total expenses of a peer group of funds as selected by an independent data service. The Board considered FAF Advisors’ assertion that the median total expense ratio of a Fund’s peer group reflects the effect of any breakpoints in the advisory fee schedules of the funds in that group and any economies of scale which those funds realize. Therefore, by capping a Fund’s total expense ratio at a level close to the median, Fund shareholders should receive the benefit of any breakpoints in the comparable funds’ advisory fee schedules and any such economies of scale. In light of FAF Advisors’ commitment to keep total Fund expenses competitive, the Board concluded that it would be reasonable and in the interest of each Fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement. |
Other Benefits to FAF Advisors
| |
| In evaluating the benefits that accrue to FAF Advisors through its relationship with the Funds, the Board noted that FAF Advisors and certain of its affiliates serve the Funds in various capacities, including as advisor, administrator, sub-administrator, transfer agent, distributor, custodian and securities lending agent, and receive compensation from the Funds in connection with providing services to the Funds. The Board considered that each service provided to the Funds by FAF Advisors or one of its affiliates is pursuant to a written agreement, which the Board evaluates periodically as required by law. |
|
| After full consideration of these and other factors, the Board concluded that approval of the Agreement was in the interest of each Fund and its shareholders. |

(e)(1) The audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures pursuant to paragraph (c)(7) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X are set forth below:
Audit Committee policy regarding pre-approval of services provided by the Independent Auditor
The Audit Committee of the First American Funds (“Committee”) has responsibility for ensuring that all services performed by the independent audit firm for the funds do not impair the firm’s independence. This review is intended to provide reasonable oversight without removing management from its responsibility for day-to-day operations. In this regard, the Committee should:
• | | Understand the nature of the professional services expected to be provided and their impact on auditor independence and audit quality |
|
• | | Examine and evaluate the safeguards put into place by the Company and the auditor to safeguard independence |
|
• | | Meet quarterly with the partner of the independent audit firm |
|
• | | Consider approving categories of service that are not deemed to impair independence for a one-year period |
It is important that a qualitative rather than a mere quantitative evaluation be performed by the Committee in discharging its responsibilities.
Policy for Audit and Non-Audit Services Provided to the Funds
On an annual basis, the Committee will review and consider whether to pre-approve the financial plan for audit fees as well as categories of audit-related and non-audit services that may be performed by the funds’ independent audit firm directly for the funds. At least annually the Committee will receive a report from the independent audit firm of all audit and non-audit services, which were approved during the period.
The engagement of the independent audit firm for any non-audit service requires the written pre-approval of the Treasurer of the funds and all non-audit services performed by the independent audit firm will be disclosed in the required SEC periodic filings.
In connection with the Committee review and pre-approval responsibilities, the review by the Committee will consist of the following:
Audit Services
The categories of audit services and related fees to be reviewed and considered for pre-approval annually by the Committee or its delegate include the following:
• | | Annual Fund financial statement audits |
|
• | | Seed audits (related to new product filings, as required) |
|
• | | SEC and regulatory filings and consents |
Audit-related Services
In addition, the following categories of audit-related services are deemed to be consistent with the role of the independent audit firm and, as such, will be considered for pre-approval by the Committee or its delegate, on an annual basis.
• | | Accounting consultations |
|
• | | Fund merger support services |
|
• | | Other accounting related matters |
|
• | | Agreed Upon Procedure Reports |
|
• | | Attestation Reports |
|
• | | Other Internal Control Reports |
Notwithstanding any annual pre-approval of these categories of services, individual projects with an estimated fee in excess of $25,000 are subject to pre-approval by the Committee Chair or its delegate on a case-by-case basis. Individual projects with an estimated fee in excess of $50,000 are subject to pre-approval by the Committee or its delegate on a case-by-case basis.
Tax Services
The following categories of tax services are deemed to be consistent with the role of the independent audit firm and, as such, will be considered for pre-approval by the Committee or its delegate, on an annual basis.
• | | Tax compliance services related to the filing or amendment of the following: |
| • | | Federal, state and local income tax compliance, and |
|
| • | | Sales and use tax compliance |
• | | Timely RIC qualification reviews |
|
• | | Tax distribution analysis and planning |
|
• | | Tax authority examination services |
|
• | | Tax appeals support services |
|
• | | Accounting methods studies |
|
• | | Fund merger support services |
|
• | | Tax consulting services and related projects |
Notwithstanding any annual pre-approval of these categories of services, individual projects with an estimated fee in excess of $25,000 are subject to pre-approval by the Committee Chair or its delegate on a case-by-case basis. Individual projects with an estimated fee in excess of $50,000 are subject to pre-approval by the Committee or its delegate on a case-by-case basis.
Other Non-audit Services
The SEC auditor independence rules adopted in response to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act specifically allow certain non-audit services. Because of the nature of these services, none of these services may be commenced by the independent audit firm without the prior approval of the Committee. The Committee may delegate this responsibility to one or more of the Committee members, with the decisions presented to the full Committee at the next scheduled meeting.
Proscribed Services
In accordance with SEC rules on independence, the independent audit firm is prohibited from performing services in the following categories of non-audit services:
• | | Management functions |
|
• | | Accounting and bookkeeping services |
|
• | | Internal audit services |
|
• | | Financial information systems design and implementation |
|
• | | Valuation services supporting the financial statements |
|
• | | Actuarial services supporting the financial statements |
|
• | | Executive recruitment |
|
• | | Expert services (e.g., litigation support) |
|
• | | Investment banking |
Policy for Pre-approval of Non-Audit Services Provided to Other Entities within the Investment Company Complex
The Committee is also responsible for pre-approving certain non-audit services provided to FAF Advisors, Inc., U.S. Bank N.A., Quasar Distributors, U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC and any other entity under common control with FAF Advisors, Inc., that provides ongoing services to the funds. The only non-audit services provided to these entities which require pre-approval are those services that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the funds.
Although the Committee is not required to pre-approve all services provided to FAF Advisors, Inc. and other affiliated service providers, the Committee will annually receive a report from the independent audit firm on the aggregate fees for all services provided to U.S. Bancorp and affiliates.
(e)(2) All of the services described in paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item 4 were pre-approved by the audit committee.
(f) All services performed on the engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal period-end were performed by the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.
(g) The aggregate non-audit fees billed by E&Y to the registrant, the registrant’s investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant, totaled $270,900 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, $116,165 in the fiscal period ended June 30, 2006, and $144,841 in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005.
(h) The registrant’s audit committee has determined that the provision of non-audit services to the registrant’s investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant, that were not pre-approved is compatible with maintaining E&Y’s independence.
