The Mid Cap Value Fund invests primarily in mid-capitalization U.S. equity investments and is subject to market risk so that the value of the securities in which it invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular industry sectors and/or general economic conditions. The securities of mid-capitalization companies involve greater risks than those associated with larger, more established companies and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements.

Stocks of smaller companies are often more volatile and less liquid and present greater risks than stocks of larger companies. At times, the Fund may be unable to sell certain of its portfolio securities without a substantial drop in price, if at all.

What Differentiates Goldman Sachs’
Value Equity Investment Process?
Goldman Sachs’ Value Equity Team believes that all successful investing should thoughtfully weigh two important attributes of a stock: price and prospects.

| |
n | Sustainable operating earnings or cash flow, or competitive advantage |
|
n | Excellent stewardship of capital |
|
n | Capability to earn above their cost of capital |
|
n | Strong or improving balance sheets and cash flow |

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
Large Cap Value Fund
Dear Shareholder:
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs Large Cap Value Fund during the six-month reporting period that ended February 28, 2007.
Performance Review
| |
| Over the six-month period that ended February 28, 2007, the Fund’s Class A, B, C, Institutional and Service Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of 8.32%, 7.95%, 7.92%, 8.53% and 8.25%, respectively. These returns compare to the 9.82% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index (with dividends reinvested), over the same time period. |
|
| The U.S. equity markets finished another year with positive returns as strong gains during the six-month reporting period capped off a widely successful 2006. For the six months ended February 28, 2007, the S&P 500 Index returned 8.93%, while the NASDAQ returned 10.64%. The equity markets largely overcame early concerns over rising interest rates and inflation, as well as signs of a cooling housing market and ongoing geopolitical concerns. Toward the end of the period, concerns related to a U.S. recession, the Asian markets and the sub-prime lending industry prompted a significant sell-off in the U.S. equity markets in late February. This erased the market’s gains during the first two months of the calendar year. |
|
| For the six-month period, the Fund generated a positive return but lagged the gains of the Russell 1000 Value index. While the portfolio benefited from strong stock selection in Consumer Staples, Technology, and Consumer Cyclicals, this was offset by weakness in holdings in Services, Basic Materials, and Energy. |
|
| In Energy, several key holdings experienced weakness during the period. We remain positive about the long-term fundamentals in the industry, particularly for natural gas, and continue to invest in companies that we believe have low cost structures, disciplined management teams and quality assets. In addition, we think that some of the current merger activity suggests that corporate buyers share our positive view on well-positioned companies in this sector. The Fund’s overall exposure to Energy has decreased over the reporting period, as we selectively reduced holdings in this sector due to price strength or changed investment thesis. Toward the end of the period, we added to existing holding Williams Companies and initiated a position in Devon Energy Corp. We eliminated the Fund’s holdings in BJ Services Co. as increased competition has pressured pricing, and ConocoPhillips as we felt the risk/reward profile was less attractive. |
|
| In the Financials sector, news of deteriorating credit quality hurt sub-prime lenders where the Fund had limited exposure. Elsewhere in the sector, Bank of America Corp. detracted from results. However, the company has one of the few national banking franchises, with a dominant position in the most attractive areas of the U.S. and our conviction in Bank of America remains strong. |
2
PORTFOLIO RESULTS
| |
| Several holdings in the Technology sector, such as Activision, Inc. and Cisco Systems, Inc, contributed positively during the reporting period. Activision, a California based video game publisher, benefited from strong sales in their video game products and management increased their outlook for the year. We continue to have a positive outlook on the long-term prospects of the company. Cisco Systems also traded up on news of a raised outlook and strong earnings driven by increased demand. |
|
| Top holdings Entergy Corp. and McDonald’s Corp. contributed to performance as they continued to benefit from improving margins, cost efficiencies and shareholder-oriented managements. |
Portfolio Composition
| |
| We established a number of new positions during the reporting period that we believe offer attractive upside potential. For example, we initiated a position in Sprint Nextel Corp. due to our belief that, with the Nextel integration issues largely addressed, Sprint has an opportunity to cut costs, reduce customer turnover and improve overall profitability. Sprint, in our view, trades at a compelling valuation for a wireless business with strong free cash flow generation. |
|
| We also initiated a position in General Electric Co. We believe the company is attractively valued relative to its history and should benefit from improving profitability and capital allocation. Management has been focused on increasing return on invested capital by reducing costs and divesting non-core business. We believe its margins are also likely to improve as business trends across many of its units are showing signs of strength. |
|
| Elsewhere in the portfolio, we eliminated the Fund’s positions in General Dynamics, Franklin Resources and J.C. Penney Co. as these stocks reached our target prices. |
Portfolio Highlights
| |
| The following stocks represent a sampling of holdings that impacted performance over the last six months. |
|
n | Motorola, Inc. — Motorola’s shares declined due to margin pressures as low-end handset sales negatively impacted its results. We remain positive about the company’s long-term outlook and believe it is potentially on track to improve margins and market share. |
|
n | Amgen, Inc. — Amgen, in the Health Care sector, also experienced a challenging period due to mixed data on new drugs in development. We continue to believe this attractively valued biotech leader will realize improvements in 2007. |
3
PORTFOLIO RESULTS
| |
n | Harrah’s Entertainment, Inc. and Equity Office Properties — Harrah’s Entertainment and Equity Office Properties enhanced the Fund’s results during the period. Harrah’s Entertainment recovered from its lows experienced earlier in 2006, receiving much attention due to the series of private equity bids placed on the company. The Fund also benefited from favorable acquisition activity as Equity Office Properties was sold to a private equity group. We subsequently sold the Fund’s position in both companies. |
Outlook
| |
| Many of our best performing stocks during the period were companies engaged in efforts to rationalize their cost structures, divest non-strategic assets and generally improve returns on capital. As we move further into 2007, we will continue to seek similar opportunities as these programs of internal change can show positive results in an uncertain market environment. We believe the market will see an active flow of private equity investments into select companies, particularly those with the cash flow characteristics we tend to favor. We maintain a valuation focus and are alert for emerging ideas across the investment landscape. |
|
| We thank you for your investment and look forward to your continued confidence. |

1 | The net asset value (NAV) represents the net assets of the class of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares of the class outstanding. The Fund’s performance reflects the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions. The Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges. |

These returns reflect a maximum initial sales charge of 5.5% for Class A Shares, the assumed contingent deferred sales charge for Class B Shares (5% maximum declining to 0% after six years) and the assumed contingent deferred sales charge for Class C Shares (1% if redeemed within 12 months of purchase). Because Institutional and Service Shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Standardized Total Returns. |
| |
| The returns represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Please visit our Web site at: www.goldmansachsfunds.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns. Performance reflects expense limitations in effect. In their absence, performance would be reduced.

Growth and Income Fund
Dear Shareholder,
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs Growth and Income Fund during the six-month reporting period that ended February 28, 2007.
Performance Review
| |
| Over the six-month period that ended February 28, 2007, the Fund’s Class A, B, C, Institutional and Service Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of 8.78%, 8.36%, 8.37%, 8.99% and 8.72%, respectively. These returns compare to the 9.82% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index (with dividends reinvested), over the same time period. |

The Fund had strong performance in the Consumer Staples, Utilities, and Energy sectors, which was offset by weakness experienced in Services, Basic Materials, and the Industrial sectors. |
|
|
| Highlights include several key holdings, such as Entergy Corp., McDonald’s Corp. and Cisco Systems, Inc., all of which recovered from mid-2006 lows. Each of these companies represents situations we favor — improving free cash flow trends, share repurchases and strong management teams. Top holding Entergy Corporation contributed to positive results as the company continues to benefit from a disciplined management team. McDonalds benefited from record profits, driven by all-time high overseas sales. Improvements to their menus, restaurant expansion and a strengthening brand has served the company well. Cisco traded up on news of a raised outlook and strong earnings driven by increased demand. We remain positive on the company’s long-term prospects. |
|
|
| Elsewhere in the portfolio, shares of Motorola, Inc. declined due to margin pressures as low-end handset sales negatively impacted results. We remain positive about the company’s long-term outlook and margin improvement opportunity. In Health Care, our investment in Amgen also experienced a challenging period due to mixed data on new drugs in development. We continue to believe this attractively valued biotech leader will realize improvements in 2007. |

Mid Cap Value Fund
Dear Shareholder,
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs Mid Cap Value Fund during the six-month reporting period that ended February 28, 2007.
Performance Review
| |
| Over the six-month period that ended February 28, 2007, the Fund’s Class A, B, C, Institutional and Service Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of 13.48%, 13.06%, 13.05%, 13.70% and 13.42%, respectively. These returns compare to the 13.95% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index (with dividends reinvested), over the same time period. |
|
|
| The U.S. equity markets finished another year with positive returns as strong gains during the six-month reporting period capped off a widely successful 2006. For the six months ended February 28, 2007, the S&P 500 Index returned 8.93%, while the NASDAQ returned 10.64%. The equity markets largely overcame early concerns over rising interest rates and inflation, as well as signs of a cooling housing market and ongoing geopolitical concerns. Toward the end of the period, concerns related to a U.S. recession, the Asian markets and the sub-prime lending industry prompted a significant sell-off in the U.S. equity markets in late February. This erased the market’s gains during the first two months of the calendar year. |
|
|
| The Fund generated positive results during the reporting period but lagged the gains of the Russell Midcap Value Index. The Fund had strong performance in the Consumer Cyclicals, Services and Financials sectors, but this was offset by weakness primarily in our Energy positioning. |
|
|
| In Energy, several key holdings experienced weakness during the reporting period. We remain positive about the long-term fundamentals in the industry, particularly for natural gas, and continue to invest in companies that we believe have low cost structures, disciplined management teams and quality assets. In addition, we think that some of the current merger activity suggests that corporate buyers share our positive view on well-positioned companies in this sector. The Fund’s overall exposure to Energy decreased over the reporting period as we selectively reduced holdings in this sector due to price strength or changed investment thesis. During the period, we added to existing holdings Williams Companies, EOG Resources, Inc. and Range Resources Corp. We reduced the Fund’s exposure to BJ Services Co. as increased competition has pressured pricing. |

Supervalu, Inc., a supermarket chain, was boosted by strong profits driven by its acquisition of Albertson’s and expectations of continued growth. We continue to view these companies as interesting investment opportunities. |

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
Portfolio Composition
| |
| We established a number of new positions that we believe offer attractive upside potential. Among them were Airgas, Inc. and Agrium, Inc. Airgas is a low cost producer and distributor of industrial and specialty gases. In our view, it is attractively valued and has the potential for substantial revenue and margin opportunities due to improved pricing and operating leverage. We believe Agrium, a fertilizer producer and retailer, is another company that benefits from a low cost structure. We feel that Agrium will also benefit from the strong global agriculture market, driven primarily by ethanol demand in the U.S. |
|
|
| We eliminated the Fund’s holdings in Unisys Corp., Apria Healthcare and Zebra Technologies as we felt the risk/reward profiles were less attractive. |
Portfolio Highlights
| |
| The following stocks represent a sampling of holdings that impacted performance over the last six months. |
|
n | Harrah’s Entertainment, Inc. — Harrah’s Entertainment enhanced the Fund’s results during the period. It recovered from its lows experienced earlier in 2006, receiving much attention due to the series of private equity bids placed on the company. We reduced the Fund’s position in the stock to lock in profits. |
|
n | Equity Office Properties — Equity Office Properties contributed positively to performance as it benefited from favorable acquisition activity and was sold to a private equity group. We subsequently sold the Fund’s position in the company and captured profits. |
|
n | AMBAC Financial Group, Inc. — AMBAC Financial, a leading insurance company, was among the Fund’s detractors from performance. The company reported results shy of expectations due to increased competition and a difficult business environment among bond insurers. We remain positive on the company’s long-term prospects. |

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
Outlook
| |
| Many of the Fund’s best performing stocks during the period were companies engaged in efforts to rationalize their cost structures, divest non-strategic assets and generally improve returns on capital. As we move further into 2007, we will continue to seek similar opportunities as these programs of internal change can show positive results in an uncertain market environment. We believe the market will see an active flow of private equity investments into select companies, particularly those with the cash flow characteristics we tend to favor. We maintain a valuation focus and are alert for emerging ideas across the investment landscape. |

Small Cap Value Fund
Dear Shareholder,
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs Small Cap Value Fund during the six-month reporting period that ended February 28, 2007.
Performance Review
| |
| Over the six-month period that ended February 28, 2007, the Fund’s Class A, B, C, Institutional and Service Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of 10.66%, 10.26%, 10.27%, 10.89% and 10.62%, respectively. These returns compare to the 10.37% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index (with dividends reinvested), over the same time period. |
|
|
| The U.S. equity markets finished another year with positive returns as strong gains during the six-month reporting period capped off a widely successful 2006. For the six months ended February 28, 2007, the S&P 500 Index returned 8.93%, while the NASDAQ returned 10.64%. The equity markets largely overcame early concerns over rising interest rates and inflation, as well as signs of a cooling housing market and ongoing geopolitical concerns. Toward the end of the period, concerns related to a U.S. recession, the Asian markets and the sub-prime lending industry prompted a significant sell-off in the U.S. equity markets in late February. This erased the market’s gains during the first two months of the calendar year. |
|
|
| The Fund generated strong results during the reporting period and performed in line with the Russell 2000 Value Index. The Fund has been successful in preserving capital in a notably volatile market. Stock selection was strong in REITs, Healthcare and Utilities, while holdings in Consumer Cyclicals, Basic Materials and Consumer Staples experienced some weakness. |
|
|
| Several key holdings experienced weakness due to company-specific events. In the Industrial sector, shares of AirTran Holdings, Inc. declined due to fuel costs concerns. We believe these cost pressures are short-term in nature and continue to hold the position. Parallel Petroleum Corp. experienced several hurdles, including record warm weather patterns that pressured this and other Fund holdings in the Energy sector. Longer term, we believe the supply/demand trends should sustain higher pricing in the sector. |
|
|
| During the reporting period, the Fund benefited from several acquisitions, as mid and large companies sought to increase their growth while the economy slowed. For example, Oregon Steel received a buyout offer from a Russian steel consortium and we sold the holding to capture profits. We shifted part of the proceeds from the sale into the Fund’s holding in Olympic Steel. We think this attractively valued steel service center will profit from industry outsourcing as they expand their capabilities. |
|
|
| In Technology, we added to the Fund’s position in Electronics for Imaging, Inc. Shares of the printer controller manufacturer were weak due to concerns over the delayed release of their largest customer’s new product. This uncertainty afforded us an attractive entry point in the stock, as we believe demand trends should be positive going forward. Additionally, we think the company should benefit from continued prudent use of strong free cash flow and from the transition to wide-format printing. |
17
PORTFOLIO RESULTS
Portfolio Composition
| |
| We reduced several of the Fund’s Technology stocks, including Insight Enterprises, Inc. We trimmed the Fund’s position in Insight as increased spending and integration issues with a recent acquisition lowered our conviction. |
|
|
| In Financials, we initiated a position in Macquarie Infrastructure. We believe the stock should benefit from increasing its dividend. In addition, its net operating income is dispersed as they increased their infrastructure business in the U.S. and internationally. We sold Affiliated Managers Group, an asset management company with equity investments in a diverse group of mid-sized investment management firms, as its stock reached our price target. |
Portfolio Highlights
| |
| The following stocks represent a sampling of holdings that impacted performance over the last six months. |
|
n | Oregon Steel — Oregon Steel enhanced the Fund’s results during the reporting period as the company was acquired at a premium. |
|
n | Dobson Communications Corp. — Dobson Communications is a wireless phone service provider. The company’s shares moved higher on the back of a strong fourth quarter that was highlighted by improved profits and positive subscriber growth. |
|
n | Mueller Industries, Inc. — Mueller Industries detracted from results during the reporting period. The company’s profits were negatively impacted by a soft housing market and declining copper prices. We continue to have a positive outlook on the long-term prospects of the company. |
Outlook
| |
| Many of the Fund’s best performing stocks during the period were companies engaged in efforts to rationalize their cost structures, divest non-strategic assets and generally improve returns on capital. As we move further into 2007, we will continue to seek similar opportunities as these programs of internal change can show positive results in an uncertain market environment. We believe the market will see an active flow of private equity investments into select companies, particularly those with the cash flow characteristics we tend to favor. We maintain a valuation focus and are alert for emerging ideas across the investment landscape. |

GOLDMAN SACHS VALUE EQUITY FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements
February 28, 2007 (Unaudited)
Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Trust includes the Goldman Sachs Large Cap Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Growth and Income Fund, Goldman Sachs Mid Cap Value Fund, and Goldman Sachs Small Cap Value Fund (collectively, the “Funds” or individually a “Fund”). Each Fund is a diversified portfolio offering five classes of shares — Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional and Service. Class A shares of the Funds are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50%. Class B Shares of the Funds are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge that declines from 5.00% to zero, depending upon the period of time the shares are held. Class C Shares of the Funds are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% during the first 12 months. Institutional and Service Class Shares of the Funds are not subject to a sales charge. Goldman, Sachs & Co. (“Goldman Sachs”) as distributor of the Funds receives such sales loads of which a certain portion may be retained.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. Investment Valuation — Investments in equity securities and investment companies traded on a U.S. securities exchange or the NASDAQ system are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If no sale occurs, such securities and investment companies are valued at the last bid price. Debt securities are valued at prices supplied by independent pricing services, broker/dealer-supplied valuations or matrix pricing systems. Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on valuation date, or if no sale occurs, at the last bid price. Investments in investment companies (other than those that are exchange traded) are valued at the net asset value per share on the valuation date. Short-term debt obligations maturing in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are deemed not to reflect market value by the investment adviser are valued at fair value using methods approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.
B. Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are reflected as of the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of portfolio securities are calculated using the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, net of foreign withholding taxes, if any, which are reduced by any amounts reclaimable by the Funds, where applicable. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, premium amortized and discount accreted.
Net investment income (other than class-specific expenses) and unrealized and realized gains or losses are allocated daily to each class of shares of the respective Fund based upon the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
C. Commission Recapture — The Funds may direct portfolio trades, subject to obtaining best execution, to various brokers who have agreed to rebate a portion of the commissions generated. Such rebates are made directly to the Funds as cash payments and are included in the net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statements of Operations.
D. Expenses — Expenses incurred by the Trust that do not specifically relate to an individual Fund of the Trust are allocated to the Funds on a straight-line and/or “pro-rata” basis depending upon the nature of the expense.
Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders of the Funds bear all expenses and fees relating to their respective Distribution and Service Plans. Service Shares bear all expenses and fees relating to their Service and Shareholder Administration Plans. Each class of shares of the Funds separately bears its respective class-specific Transfer agency fees.

GOLDMAN SACHS VALUE EQUITY FUNDS
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
E. Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, no federal tax provisions are required. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions, if any, are declared and paid quarterly for the Goldman Sachs Growth and Income Fund and annually for all other Funds. Capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually for all Funds. Net capital losses are carried forward to future years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gain distributions.
The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with Federal income tax rules, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. Therefore, the source of each Fund’s distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from net investment income, net realized gain, or as a tax return of capital.
In addition, distributions paid by the Funds’ investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) often include a “return of capital” which is recorded by the Funds as a reduction of the cost basis of the securities held. The Code requires a REIT to distribute at least 95% of its taxable income to investors. In many cases, however, because of “non-cash” expenses such as property depreciation, a REIT’s cash flow will exceed its taxable income. The REIT may distribute this excess cash to offer a more competitive yield. This portion of the Funds’ distributions is deemed a return of capital and is generally not taxable to shareholders.
F. Repurchase Agreements — Repurchase agreements involve the purchase of securities subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase them at a mutually agreed upon date and price. During the term of a repurchase agreement, the value of the underlying securities held as collateral on behalf of the Funds, including accrued interest, is required to exceed the value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest. If the seller defaults or becomes insolvent, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited and there may be a decline in the value of the collateral during the period while the Funds seek to assert their rights. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held in safekeeping at the Funds’ custodian or designated subcustodians under triparty repurchase agreements.
Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and terms and conditions contained therein, the Funds, together with other registered investment companies having management or investment advisory agreements with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), or its affiliates, may transfer uninvested cash into joint accounts, the daily aggregate balance of which is invested in one or more repurchase agreements.
G. Segregation Transactions — As set forth in the prospectus, the Funds may enter into certain derivative transactions to seek to increase total return. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts, futures contracts, written options, when-issued securities and forward commitments represent examples of such transactions. As a result of entering into these transactions, the Funds are required to segregate liquid assets with a current value equal to or greater than the market value of the corresponding transactions.

GSAM, an affiliate of Goldman Sachs, serves as the investment adviser pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust on behalf of the Funds. Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Funds, subject to the general supervision of the Trust’s Board of Trustees.
As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administering the Funds’ business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a fee (“Management fee”) computed daily and payable monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.
GSAM currently receives a Management fee on a contractual basis at the following rates:
| | | | | | |
| | Management Fee | | Average Daily |
Fund | | Annual Rate | | Net Assets |

GSAM has voluntarily agreed to limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Funds (excluding Management fees, Distribution and Service fees, Transfer Agency fees and expenses, Service Share fees, taxes, interest, brokerage fees and litigation, indemnification, shareholder meeting and other extraordinary expenses exclusive of any custody and transfer agent expense reductions) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such expense reimbursements, if any, are computed daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Funds are not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any.
The Other Expense limitations of the Large Cap Value, Growth and Income, Mid Cap Value, and the Small Cap Value Funds as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets are 0.064%, 0.054%, 0.104% and 0.064%, respectively. For the six months ended February 28, 2007, GSAM made no reimbursements due to expense limitations to any of the Funds.
The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (the “Plans”). Under the Plans, Goldman Sachs and/or authorized dealers are entitled to a monthly fee for distribution services equal to, on an annual basis, 0.25%, 0.75% and 0.75% of the Funds’ average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B and Class C Shares, respectively. Additionally, Goldman Sachs and/or authorized dealers are entitled to receive, under the Plans a separate fee for personal and account maintenance services equal to, on an annual basis, 0.25% of each Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C Shares.

The Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan provides for compensation to the service organizations in an amount equal to, on an annualized basis, 0.25% and 0.25%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of the Service Shares.
For the six months ended February 28, 2007, GSAM has voluntarily agreed to waive certain fees and reimburse certain expenses.

Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the SEC and the terms and conditions contained therein, the Funds may lend their securities through a securities lending agent, Boston Global Advisers (“BGA”) — a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs, to certain qualified borrowers including Goldman Sachs and affiliates. In accordance with the Funds’ security lending procedures, the loans are collateralized at all times with cash and/or securities with a market value at least equal to the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Funds at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds bear the risk of delay on recovery or loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially.
The Funds invest the cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Enhanced Portfolio of Boston Global Investment Trust, a Delaware statutory trust. The Enhanced Portfolio is exempt from registration under Section 3(c)(7) of the Act and is managed by GSAM, for which GSAM receives an investment advisory fee of up to 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the Enhanced Portfolio. The Enhanced Portfolio invests in high quality money market instruments. The Funds bear the risk of incurring a loss from the investment of cash collateral due to either credit or market factors.
Both the Funds and BGA receive compensation relating to the lending of the Funds’ securities. The amounts earned by the Funds for the six months ended February 28, 2007, are reported parenthetically under Investment Income on the Statements of Operations.
The table below details securities lending activity as of, and for the six months ended February 28, 2007:

6. LINE OF CREDIT FACILITY |
The Funds participate in a $400,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility together with other registered investment companies having management or investment advisory agreements with GSAM or affiliates. Under the most restrictive arrangement, the Funds must own securities having a market value in excess of 300% of each Fund’s total bank borrowings. This facility is to be used solely for temporary or emergency purposes. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The committed facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Funds based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the six months ended February 28, 2007, the Funds did not have any borrowings under this facility.

As of the Growth and Income Fund’s most recent fiscal year end, August 31, 2006, the Fund’s capital loss carryforward was $1,571,147, which expires on August 31, 2010. Due to a Fund merger, utilization of these losses may be limited under the Internal Revenue Code. The Large Cap Value, Mid Cap Value and Small Cap Value Funds had no capital loss carryforward as of August 31, 2006.
At February 28, 2007, the Funds’ aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

|
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable to wash sales and differences related to the tax treatment of partnership investments.
Legal Proceedings — Purported class and derivative action lawsuits were filed in April and May 2004 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (“GSG”), GSAM and certain related parties, including certain Goldman Sachs Funds including these Funds, and the Trustees and Officers of the Trust. In June 2004, these lawsuits were consolidated into one action and in November 2004 a consolidated and amended complaint was filed against GSG, GSAM, Goldman Sachs Asset Management International (“GSAMI”), Goldman Sachs and certain related parties including certain Goldman Sachs Funds and the Trustees and Officers of the Trust. These Funds along with certain other investment portfolios of the Trust, were named as nominal defendants in the amended complaint. Plaintiffs filed a second amended consolidated complaint on April 15, 2005. The second amended consolidated complaint alleges violations of the Act and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The complaint also asserts claims involving common law breaches of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment. The complaint alleges, among other things, that between April 2, 1999 and January 9, 2004 (the “Class Period”), GSAM and other defendants made improper and excessive brokerage commission and other payments to brokers that sold shares of the Goldman Sachs Funds and omitted statements of fact in registration statements and reports filed pursuant to the Act which were necessary to prevent such registration statements and reports from being materially false and misleading. The complaint further alleges that the Goldman Sachs Funds paid excessive and improper advisory fees to Goldman Sachs. The complaint also alleges that GSAM and GSAMI used Rule 12b-1 fees for improper purposes and made improper use of soft dollars. The complaint further alleges that the Trust’s Officers and Trustees breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the foregoing. On January 13, 2006, all claims against the defendants were dismissed by the U.S. District Court. On February 22, 2006, the plaintiffs appealed this decision. By agreement, the plaintiffs subsequently withdrew their appeal without prejudice but reserved their right to reactivate their appeal pending a decision by the circuit court of appeals in similar litigation. Plaintiffs did not reactivate their appeal by the deadline.
Based on currently available information, GSAM and GSAMI believe that the likelihood that the pending purported class and derivative action lawsuit will have a material adverse financial impact on the Funds is remote, and the pending action is not likely to materially affect their ability to provide investment management services to their clients, including the Goldman Sachs Funds.
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

8. OTHER MATTERS (continued) |
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. On December 22, 2006, the SEC delayed the implementation of this ruling such that it must be incorporated no later than February 29, 2008. At this time, the investment adviser is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact in the financial statements has not yet been determined.
On September 15, 2006, the FASB released Statement Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 “Fair Value Measurement” (“FAS 157”) which provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard requires companies to provide expanded information about the assets and liabilities measured at fair value and the potential effect of these fair valuations of an entity’s financial performance. The standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances, but provides clarification on acceptable fair valuation methods and applications. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The investment adviser does not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, however, additional disclosures will be required.

(a) | Calculated based on the average shares outstanding methodology. |
(b) | Assumes investment at the net asset value at the beginning of the period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions, a complete redemption of the investment at the net asset value at the end of the period and no sales or redemption charges. Total return would be reduced if a sales or redemption charge were taken into account. Total returns for periods less than one full year are not annualized. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. |
(c) | Annualized. |
(d) | Less than $0.005 per share. |
(e) | Reflects an increase of $0.01 due to payments by affiliates during the period to reimburse certain security claims. |
(f) | Performance has not been restated to reflect the impact of security claims recorded during the period. If restated, the performance would have been 16.71%, 15.85%, 15.83%, 17.20% and 16.61% for Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional and Service Shares, respectively. |

GOLDMAN SACHS VALUE EQUITY FUNDS
Fund Expenses (Unaudited) — Six Month Period Ended February 28, 2007
As a shareholder of Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional or Service Shares of the Funds you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (with respect to Class A Shares), contingent deferred sales charges (loads) on redemptions (with respect to Class B and Class C Shares), and redemption fees (with respect to Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional and Service Shares, if any); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees (with respect to Class A, Class B and Class C Shares); and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional and Service Shares of the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from September 1, 2006 through February 28, 2007.
Actual Expenses — The first line under each share class in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, 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 divided by $1,000=8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ 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 Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example 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), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

* | Expenses for each share class are calculated using each Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended February 28, 2007. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the calendar year. The expense ratios for the period were as follows: |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Class A | | Class B | | Class C | | Institutional | | Service |
|
Large Cap Value | | | 1.19 | % | | | 1.94 | % | | | 1.94 | % | | | 0.79 | % | | | 1.29 | % |

The reports concerning the Funds included in this shareholder report may contain certain forward-looking statements about the factors that may affect the performance of the Funds in the future. These statements are based on Fund management’s predictions and expectations concerning certain future events and their expected impact on the Funds, such as performance of the economy as a whole and of specific industry sectors, changes in the levels of interest rates, the impact of developing world events, and other factors that may influence the future performance of the Funds. Management believes these forward-looking statements to be reasonable, although they are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Actual events may cause adjustments in portfolio management strategies from those currently expected to be employed.
A description of the policies and procedures that the Funds use to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities and information regarding how a Fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available (I) without charge, upon request by calling 1-800-526-7384 (for Retail Shareholders) or 1-800-621-2550 (for Institutional Shareholders); and (II) on the Securities and Exchange Commission Web site at http://www.sec.gov.
The Funds file their complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. Beginning the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2004 and every first and third fiscal quarter thereafter, the Funds’ Form N-Q will become available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov within 60 days after the Funds’ first and third fiscal quarters. When available, the Funds’ Forms N-Q may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. and information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may also be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330. When available, Form N-Q may be obtained upon request and without charge by calling 1-800-526-7384 (for Retail Shareholders) or 1-800-621-2550 (for Institutional Shareholders).
The Funds may invest in foreign securities, which may be more volatile and less liquid than investment in U.S. securities and will be subject to the risks of currency fluctuations and sudden economic or political developments. At times, the Funds may be unable to sell certain of their portfolio securities without a substantial drop in price, if at all.
The Large Cap Value, Mid Cap Value and Small Cap Value Funds may invest in fixed income securities. Investments in fixed income securities are subject to the risks associated with debt securities including credit and interest rate risk.
The Large Cap Value Fund may participate in the Initial Public Offering (IPO) market, and a portion of the Fund’s returns consequently may be attributable to its investment in IPOs. The market value of IPO shares may fluctuate considerably due to factors such as the absence of a prior public market, unseasoned trading, and the small number of shares available for trading and limited information about the issuer. When a fund’s asset base is small, IPOs may have a magnified impact on the fund’s performance. As a fund’s assets grow, it is probable that the effect of the fund’s investment in IPOs on its total returns may not be as significant, which could reduce the fund’s performance.
Holdings and allocations shown may not be representative of current or future investments. Holdings and allocations may not include the Fund’s entire investment portfolio, which may change at any time. Fund holdings should not be relied on in making investment decisions and should not be construed as research or investment advice regarding particular securities.
This material is not authorized for distribution to prospective investors unless preceded or accompanied by a current Prospectus. Please consider a Fund’s objectives, risks, and charges and expenses, and read the Prospectus carefully before investing. The Prospectus contains this and other information about the Funds.

Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Services Provided to the Funds of the Goldman Sachs Trust. The Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the “Policy”) adopted by the Audit Committee of Goldman Sachs Trust (“GST”) sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which services performed by an independent auditor for GST may be pre-approved. Services may be pre-approved specifically by the Audit Committee as a whole or, in certain circumstances, by the Audit Committee Chairman or the person designated as the Audit Committee Financial Expert. In addition, subject to specified cost limitations, certain services may be pre-approved under the provisions of the Policy. The Policy provides that the Audit Committee will consider whether the services provided by an independent auditor are consistent with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules on auditor independence. The Policy provides for periodic review and pre-approval by the Audit Committee of the services that may be provided by the independent auditor.
De Minimis Waiver. The pre-approval requirements of the Policy may be waived with respect to the provision of non-audit services that are permissible for an independent auditor to perform, provided (1) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than five percent of the total amount of revenues subject to pre-approval that was paid to the independent auditors during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (2) such services were not recognized by GST at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (3) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Audit Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee to whom authority to grant such approvals has been delegated by the Audit Committee, pursuant to the pre-approval provisions of the Policy.
Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services Provided to GST’s Investment Advisers. The Policy provides that, in addition to requiring pre-approval of audit and non-audit services provided to GST, the Audit Committee will pre-approve those non-audit services provided to GST’s investment advisers (and entities controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment advisers that provide ongoing services to GST) where the engagement relates directly to the operations or financial reporting of GST.
Item 4(e)(2) – 0% of the audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees listed in Table 1 were approved by GST’s Audit Committee pursuant to the “de minimis” exception of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X. In addition, 0% of the non-audit services to the GST’s service affiliates listed in Table 2 were approved by GST’s Audit Committee pursuant to the “de minimis” exception of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.
Item 4(f) – Not applicable.

With regard to the aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST’s adviser and service affiliates, the 2005 and 2006 amounts include fees for non-audit services required to be pre-approved [see Table 2] and fees for non-audit services that did not require pre-approval since they did not directly relate to GST’s operations or financial reporting.
The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST by Ernst & Young LLP for the 12 months ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were approximately $107,400 and $84,850, respectively.

Item 4(h) — GST’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services to GST’s investment adviser and service affiliates that did not require pre-approval pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence.
