Principal Investment Strategies and Risks
| |
This is not a complete list of risks that may affect the Funds. For additional information concerning the risks applicable to the Funds, please see the Funds’ Prospectuses. | |
|
The Structured Small Cap Growth Fund invests primarily in a broadly diversified portfolio of small-capitalization U.S. equity investments. The Fund’s equity investments are subject to market risk, which means 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. 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. | |

Structured Small Cap Growth Fund and
Structured Small Cap Value Fund
Dear Shareholder:
This report provides an overview of the performance of the Goldman Sachs Structured Small Cap Growth Fund and Structured Small Cap Value Fund for the six-month reporting period that ended April 30, 2008.
Performance Review
| |
| Over the six-month period, the Structured Small Cap Growth Fund’s Class A, B, C, Institutional, and Service Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of -17.89%, -18.22%, -18.18%, -17.73%, and -18.01%, respectively. These returns compare to a cumulative total return of -14.14% on the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index (with dividends reinvested), over the same time period. In the period since their inception on November 30, 2007, the Fund’s IR and R Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of -10.30% and -10.51%, respectively, versus -7.77% for the Russell 2000 Growth Index (with dividends reinvested), over the same time period. |
|
| Over the same period that ended April 30, 2008, the Goldman Sachs Structured Small Cap Value Fund’s Class A, B, C, Institutional, and Service Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of -15.82%, -15.89%, -15.90%, -15.56%, and -15.69%, respectively. These returns compare to a cumulative total return of -11.55% on the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index (with dividends reinvested), over the same time period. In the period since their inception, the Fund’s IR and R Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of -7.59% and -7.86%, respectively, versus -4.38% for the Russell 2000 Value Index (with dividends reinvested), over the same time period. |
The Structured Investment Process
| |
| The Funds use a model that is based on six investment themes — Valuation, Profitability, Earnings Quality, Management Impact, Momentum and Analyst Sentiment. The Valuation theme attempts to capture potential mispricings of securities, typically by comparing a measure of the company’s intrinsic value to its market value. Profitability assesses whether the company is earning more than its cost of capital. Earnings Quality evaluates whether the company’s earnings are coming from more persistent, cash-based sources, as opposed to accruals. Management Impact assesses the company’s management strategy and behavior. Momentum predicts drift in stock prices caused by under-reaction to company-specific information. Finally, the Analyst Sentiment theme looks at how Wall Street analysts’ views about a company’s earnings and prospects are changing over time. |

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
Market Review and Portfolio Highlights
| |
| Market conditions were particularly challenging in the small cap space during the last six months, with both the Russell 2000 Growth Index and Russell 2000 Value Index posting double-digit losses over the period. Most sectors performed poorly; Information Technology lagged the most for growth stocks while Financials underperformed the most for value stocks. |
|
| The Funds’ relative performance was also disappointing over the six months, a period in which the market environment was challenging for quantitative strategies generally. We believe that we are still experiencing the continued effects of the “crowding” among managers employing similar quantitative models across the industry. (Crowding is a phenomenon in which quantitative managers look for similar stock traits using similar investment themes.) Crowding came to a head in August 2007 as a result of the quant liquidity crunch in which many of the portfolio managers utilizing quantitative strategies tried to reduce their exposure to the same equities simultaneously. The ensuing sell-off, which continued — albeit more muted — into September through the fourth quarter (particularly during November 2007) and into 2008, adversely affected our investment themes, resulting in continued underperformance of the Funds. Any news that increased market volatility seemed to have a disproportionately negative impact on the Funds and our quantitative factors during the period. |
|
| In both our Structured Small Cap Growth and Structured Small Cap Value Funds, our Sentiment investment theme detracted the most from relative performance. This suggests that as analysts became more positive about certain stocks, many of those stocks would go on to underperform — exactly the opposite of what we would expect and have observed over the long term. Similarly, stocks about which analysts had a negative outlook tended to outperform. We think that this may have been associated with the crowding phenomenon as too many investors tried to respond to analysts’ recommendation changes at the same time, thereby reducing or eliminating the effectiveness of the investment technique. |
|
| In the Structured Small Cap Growth Fund, stock selection was weakest in the Industrials and Consumer Discretionary sectors. Among sectors, stock selection within the Structured Small Cap Value Fund was weakest in Information Technology and Financials. As concern about the economy increased in early 2008, we believe that investors in economically sensitive stocks, such as Consumer Discretionary names, did not rely on already-reported financial data but worried instead about the sustainability of these companies’ fundamentals. Meanwhile, the continuing turmoil in the financials sector, made stock selection there difficult. Over the long term, our models have been successful at identifying the appropriate stocks to over- and underweight relative to the benchmark in both sectors. |

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
| |
| Although the Funds have experienced an extended period of underperformance, we maintain a strong belief in an economically based, statistically proven, quantitatively driven process. To help us attempt to improve long-term returns, we have introduced a series of enhancements to our models, including the addition of new factors, modifications to existing factors, and the development of sector-specific factors. We regard many of the factors that we have implemented and those that we are currently researching as more proprietary in nature and therefore less likely to become “crowded”. This should help us reduce our reliance on factors that have become more commonplace and allow us to migrate our models over time to unique return opportunities. In addition, we recently enhanced our trading methodology to allow for more frequent rebalancing, which should help us incorporate relevant financial data into our models while continuing to keep transaction costs as low as possible. We believe that by rebalancing our portfolios on a more frequent basis, we may be able to achieve more timely exposure to our investment themes and to better exploit shorter-lived information sources, thereby seeking to improve long-term results. |
|
| Quantitative investing has become extremely popular in recent times. To be successful in the future, we believe quantitative managers should be acutely aware of other managers, be nimble in terms of trading, and employ proprietary models. At Goldman Sachs, we believe that we have the resources, experience and expertise that are necessary to succeed in these challenging times. Our team and Goldman Sachs are committed to doing everything we can to seek better performance in the future. We thank you for your investment and will work to earn 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. |

3 | The Standardized Average Annual Total Returns are average annual total returns or cumulative total returns (only if the performance period is one year or less) as of the most recent calendar quarter-end. They assume reinvestment of all distributions at NAV. 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, Service, Class IR and R shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Standardized Average Annual 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. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

GOLDMAN SACHS STRUCTURED SMALL CAP FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements
April 30, 2008 (Unaudited)
Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust includes the Structured Small Cap Growth Fund and Structured Small Cap Value Fund (collectively, the “Funds” or individually a “Fund”). Each Fund is a diversified portfolio offering seven classes of shares — Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional, Service, Class IR and Class R Shares. Class IR and Class R Shares of the Funds commenced operations on November 30, 2007. 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, Service, Class IR and Class R Shares of the Funds are not subject to a sales charge. Goldman, Sachs & Co. (“Goldman Sachs”) serves as distributor of the Funds and receives such sales charges of which a certain portion may be retained.
Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P., (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs, serves as investment adviser pursuant to a Management Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust on behalf of the Funds.
On June 25, 2007, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Reorganization Agreement”) approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees on November 9, 2006, all of the assets, subject to liabilities, of the AXA Enterprise Small Company Value Fund and the AXA Enterprise Small Company Growth Fund (the “Predecessor Funds”) were transferred to the Structured Small Cap Growth Fund and the Structured Small Cap Value Fund, respectively, in exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Funds’ Class A, Class B, Class C and Institutional shares of equal value as of the close of business on June 22, 2007. Holders of Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Predecessor Funds received Class A, Class B, and Class C shares of the Funds and holders of Class Y shares of the Predecessor Funds received Institutional shares of the Funds, in each case in an amount equal to the aggregate net asset value of their investment in the Predecessor Funds. The exchange was a tax-free event to shareholders. The Predecessor Funds were the accounting survivors in the reorganization and, as such, the financial highlights reflect the financial information of the Predecessor Funds through June 22, 2007. On the date of the exchange, the Funds created Service Class shares. Refer to the Other Matters footnote for details of the reorganization.
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 (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. Investment Valuation — The investment valuation policy of the Funds is to value investments at market value. 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 or broker/dealer-supplied valuations. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which considers yield or price with respect to comparable bonds, quotations from bond dealers or by reference to other securities that are considered comparable in such characteristics as rating, interest rate and maturity date, to determine current value. Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on the 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 GSAM are valued at fair value using methods approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.
In addition, GSAM, consistent with its procedures and applicable regulatory guidance, may determine to make an adjustment to the previous closing prices of either domestic or foreign securities in light of significant events, to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities at the time of determining the Funds’ NAV. Significant events that could affect
29
GOLDMAN SACHS STRUCTURED SMALL CAP FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2008 (Unaudited)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
a large number of securities in a particular market may include, but are not limited to: situations relating to one or more single issuers in a market sector; significant fluctuations in U.S. or foreign markets; market dislocations; market disruptions or market closings; government actions or other developments; as well as the same or similar events which may affect specific issuers or the securities markets even though not tied directly to the securities markets. Other significant events that could relate to a single issuer may include, but are not limited to: corporate actions such as reorganizations, mergers and buy-outs; corporate announcements, earnings; significant litigation and regulatory news such as governmental approvals.
B. Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are reflected for financial reporting purposes 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. 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, Class C and Class R 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.
The Trustees of the Predecessor Trust had approved the payment of certain expenses using brokerage service arrangements. These payments were reflected on the Statements of Operations as “fees paid indirectly” for the periods prior to June 22, 2007. Effective June 25, 2007, the Fund’s discontinued such policy.
D. 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 and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually. Net capital losses, if any, 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 U.S. 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.
The Funds adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”) on April 30, 2008. FIN 48 establishes financial accounting and disclosure requirements for recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on an income tax return. GSAM has reviewed the tax positions for the open tax years (tax years ended October 31, 2004-2007) and determined that the implementation of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Funds’ financial statements.
E. Futures Contracts — The Funds may enter into futures transactions to hedge against changes in interest rates, securities prices, currency exchange rates or to seek to increase total return. Futures contracts are valued at the last settlement price, or
30
GOLDMAN SACHS STRUCTURED SMALL CAP FUNDS
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
in the absence of a sale, the last bid price, at the end of each day on the board of trade or exchange upon which they are traded. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to segregate cash or securities equal to the minimum “initial margin” requirement of the associated futures exchange. Subsequent payments for futures contracts (“variation margin”) are paid or received by the Funds, dependent on the fluctuations in the value of the contracts, and are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses. When contracts are closed, the Funds realize a gain or loss which is reported in the Statements of Operations.
The use of futures contracts involves, to varying degrees, elements of market and counterparty risk which may exceed the amounts recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Changes in the value of a futures contract may not directly correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. These risks may decrease the effectiveness of the Funds’ strategies and potentially result in a loss.
F. Repurchase Agreements — Repurchase agreements involve the purchase of securities subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase the securities 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 agreements with 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. In addition, the Funds’ credit exposure is allocated to the underlying repurchase counterparties on a pro-rata basis. With the exception of certain transaction fees, the Funds are not subject to any expenses in relation to these investments.
G. Segregation Transactions — The Funds may enter into certain derivative or other 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.
A. Management Agreement — 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.
For the six months ended April 30, 2008, GSAM’s contractual Management fees are listed below along with the effective rate for the period:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Contractual Management Rate | | Effective Net |
| | | | Management |
| | First | | Over | | Effective | | Rate |
Fund | | $2 billion | | $2 billion | | Rate | | (after waiver) |
|
Structured Small Cap Growth and Structured Small Cap Value | | | 0.85 | % | | | 0.77 | % | | | 0.85 | % | | | 0.81 | %* |
|
| |
* | GSAM voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of its management fee in order to achieve an effective rate of 0.81% as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets of Structured Small Cap Growth and Structured Small Cap Value Funds, respectively, for the six months ended April 30, 2008. |

| 3. AGREEMENTS (continued) |
B. Distribution Agreement and Service Plan — The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (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%, 0.75%, and 0.50% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R 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 the average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C Shares. With respect to Class A and Class R Shares, the distributor at its discretion may use compensation for distribution services paid under the Plans to compensate service organizations for personal and account maintenance services and expenses so long as such total compensation under the Plans does not exceed the maximum cap on “service fees” imposed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.
Goldman Sachs serves as Distributor of the shares of the Funds pursuant to a Distribution Agreement. Goldman Sachs may retain a portion of the Class A sales load and Class B and Class C contingent deferred sales charges. During the six months ended April 30, 2008, Goldman Sachs advised the Funds that it retained the following approximate amounts:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Front End | | Contingent Deferred |
| | Sales Load | | Sales Charge |
| | | | |
Fund | | Class A | | Class B | | Class C |
|
Structured Small Cap Growth | | $ | 1,200 | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | |
|
Structured Small Cap Value | | | 5,000 | | | | — | | | | — | |
|
C. Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs serves as the Transfer Agent of the Funds for a fee. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are calculated daily and payable monthly at an annual rate as follows: 0.19% of the average daily net assets for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class IR and Class R Shares and 0.04% of the average daily net assets for Institutional and Service Shares.
D. Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan — The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, has adopted a Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan for Service Shares. These plans allow for Service Shares to compensate service organizations for providing varying levels of personal and account administration and shareholder administration services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan each provide for compensation to the service organizations in an amount equal to, on an annualized basis, 0.25%, of the average daily net assets of the Funds’ Service Shares.
E. Other Agreements — GSAM has voluntarily agreed to limit certain “Other Expenses” (excluding Management fees, Distribution and Service fees, Transfer Agency fees and expenses, Service Share fees, taxes, interest, brokerage fees and litigation, indemnification, shareholder meetings and other extraordinary expenses, exclusive of any custody and transfer agent fee credit reductions) to the extent that such expenses exceed, on an annual basis 0.004% 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.
For the six months ended April 30, 2008, GSAM has voluntarily agreed to waive certain management fees and agreed to reimburse other expenses. In addition, the Funds have entered into certain offset arrangements with the custodian and the transfer agent resulting in a reduction in the Funds’ expenses. These expense reductions were as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | Transfer | | | | |

The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of long-term securities for the six months ended April 30, 2008, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Purchases | | Sales and Maturities |
|

|
Structured Small Cap Value | | | 183,768,896 | | | | 311,382,873 | |
|
For the six months ended April 30, 2008, Goldman Sachs earned approximately $100 and $500 of brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions, including futures transactions executed with Goldman Sachs as the Futures Commission Merchant, on behalf of the Structured Small Cap Growth and Structured Small Cap Value Funds, respectively.
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, Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), formerly Boston Global Advisors, 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 (“Enhanced Portfolio”), 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 money market instruments, but is not a “money market fund” subject to the requirements of Rule 2a-7 of the Act. 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 GSAL receive compensation relating to the lending of the Funds’ securities. The amounts earned by the Funds for the six months ended April 30, 2008, are reported parenthetically under Investment Income on the Statements of Operations.

At April 30, 2008, the Funds’ aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Structured Small | | Structured Small |
| | Cap Growth | | Cap Value |
|
Tax Cost | | $ | 65,668,138 | | | $ | 280,712,009 | |
|
Gross unrealized gain | | | 13,630,142 | | | | 23,525,422 | |
Gross unrealized loss | | | (14,654,682 | ) | | | (30,185,190 | ) |
|
Net unrealized security loss | | $ | (1,024,540 | ) | | $ | (6,659,768 | ) |
|
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales, mark-to-market gains on section 1256 contracts and the difference in tax treatment of partnership investments as of the most recent fiscal year end.
Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds believe the risk of loss under these arrangements to be minimal.
Mergers and Reorganizations — At a meeting held on November 9, 2006, the Board of Trustees of the Trust approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization the (“Reorganization Agreement”) providing for the tax-free acquisition of the AXA Enterprise Small Company Growth Fund by the Structured Small Cap Growth Fund. The acquisition was completed on June 25, 2007, as of the close of business on June 22, 2007.

C. New Accounting Pronouncements — On September 15, 2006, the FASB released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”), which provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. FAS 157 requires companies to provide expanded information about the assets and liabilities measured at fair value and the potential effect of these fair valuations on an entity’s financial performance. FAS 157 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. GSAM does not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements; however, additional disclosures will be required.
In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. FAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about the Funds’ derivative and hedging activities. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of FAS 161 will have on the Funds’ financial statement disclosures.

Effective May 2008, the Funds participate in a $700,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or affiliates. 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.

GOLDMAN SACHS STRUCTURED SMALL CAP FUNDS
Fund Expenses (Unaudited) — Six Month Period Ended April 30, 2008
As a shareholder of Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional, Service, Class IR or Class R 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 C shares), and redemption fees (if any); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees (with respect to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R 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, Service, Class IR and Class R Shares of the Funds 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 November 1, 2007 through April 30, 2008.
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 for 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 net expense ratios 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 the 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 April 30, 2008. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net 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 fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows: |
