UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
As a mutual fund shareholder you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution fees (12b-1 fees), and other fund expenses. Certain exemptions may apply. These costs are described in more detail in each Fund’s prospectus. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and help you compare these with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The first line in the table for each class of Fund shares shows the actual amount of Fund expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in the fund from October 1, 2013 through March 31, 2014. To estimate the expenses you paid over the period, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60) and multiply the result by the number in the Expenses Paid During Period column as shown below for your class.
The second line in the table for each class of Fund shares provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid on your investment for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund to 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 reflect ongoing costs only, and do not include any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included, total costs would be higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
1. Organization. Loomis Sayles Funds I (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) as an open-end management investment company. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of the Trust in multiple series. The financial statements for certain funds of the Trust are presented in separate reports. The following funds (individually, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are included in this report:
Loomis Sayles Fixed Income Fund (the “Fixed Income Fund”)
Loomis Sayles Global Bond Fund (the “Global Bond Fund”)
Loomis Sayles Inflation Protected Securities Fund (the “Inflation Protected Securities Fund”)
Loomis Sayles Institutional High Income Fund (the “Institutional High Income Fund”)
Loomis Sayles Intermediate Duration Bond Fund (the “Intermediate Duration Bond Fund”)
Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund (the “Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund”)
Each Fund is a diversified investment company.
Each Fund offers Institutional Class shares. Global Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund and Intermediate Duration Bond Fund also offer Retail Class shares. In addition, Global Bond Fund offers Class N shares.
Most expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a fund are generally apportioned based on the relative net assets of each of the funds in the Trust. Expenses of a Fund are borne pro rata by the holders of each class of shares, except that each class bears expenses unique to that class (including the Rule 12b-1 distribution fees and transfer agent fees). In addition, each class votes as a class only with respect to its own Rule 12b-1 Plan. Shares of each class would receive their pro rata share of the net assets of a Fund if the Fund were liquidated. The Trustees approve separate distributions from net investment income on each class of shares.
2. Significant Accounting Policies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The Funds’ financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to period-end through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no material events that would require disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.
a. Valuation. Fund securities and other investments are valued at market value based on market quotations obtained or determined by independent pricing services recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, as described below. Market value is determined as follows:
Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service, using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities, if available, or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers. Senior loans are valued at bid prices supplied by an independent pricing service, if available. Equity securities (including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) are valued at the last sale price quoted on the exchange or market where traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking an NOCP, at the most recent bid quotations on the applicable NASDAQ Market. In some foreign markets, an official close price and a last sale price may be available from the foreign exchange or market. In those cases, the official close price is used. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to value debt and equity securities and senior loans where an independent pricing service is unable to price a security or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued utilizing interpolated rates determined based on information provided by an independent pricing service. Futures contracts are valued at the current settlement price on the exchange on which the adviser believes that, over time, they are traded most extensively. Swaptions are valued at mid prices (between the bid and the ask price) supplied by an independent pricing service, if available. Other swaptions not priced through an independent pricing service are valued based on prices obtained from broker-dealers. Centrally cleared swap agreements are valued at settlement prices of the clearinghouse on which the contracts were traded or prices obtained from broker-dealers. Bilateral credit default swaps are valued based on mid prices (between the bid price and the ask price) supplied by an independent pricing service. Bilateral interest rate swap agreements are valued based on prices supplied by an independent pricing service. Short-term obligations (purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value).
Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Fund may also value securities and other investments at fair

value in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market but prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing its securities or other investments, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities or other market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the time the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security, and fair values used to determine a Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same securities. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities held by the Fund.
b. Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one day basis for daily net asset value calculation. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on ex-dividend date, or in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as a Fund is notified, and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Interest income is increased by the accretion of discount and decreased by the amortization of premium. Periodic principal adjustments for inflation-protected securities are recorded to interest income. Negative principal adjustments (in the event of deflation) are recorded as reductions of interest income to the extent of interest income earned, not to exceed the amount of positive principal adjustments on a cumulative basis. Distributions received from investments in securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments or as a realized gain, respectively. The calendar year-end amounts of ordinary income, capital gains, and return of capital included in distributions received from the Funds’ investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) are reported to the Funds after the end of the fiscal year; accordingly, the Funds estimate these amounts for accounting purposes until the characterization of REIT distributions is reported to the Funds after the end of the fiscal year. Estimates are based on the most recent REIT distribution information available. In determining net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities has been determined on an identified cost basis. Investment income, non-class-specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund.
c. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions.
Since the values of investment securities are presented at the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period, it is not practical to isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in exchange rates from fluctuations which arise due to changes in market prices of investment securities. Such changes are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currency, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investment securities, at the end of the fiscal period, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
Certain Funds may use foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts’ terms.
d. Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. Certain Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts, including forward foreign cross currency contracts, to acquire exposure to foreign currencies or to hedge the Funds’ investments against currency fluctuation. A contract can also be used to offset a previous contract. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The U.S. dollar value of the currencies a Fund has committed to buy or sell represents the aggregate exposure to each currency a Fund has acquired or hedged through currency contracts outstanding at period end. Gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until settlement date. Contracts are traded over-the-counter directly with a counterparty. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Certain contracts may require the movement of cash and/or securities as collateral for the Funds’ or counterparty’s net obligations under the contracts.
e. Futures Contracts. The Funds may enter into futures contracts. Futures contracts are agreements between two parties to buy and sell a particular commodity, instrument or index for a specified price on a specified future date.
When a Fund enters into a futures contract, it is required to deposit with (or for the benefit of) its broker an amount of cash or short-term high-quality securities as “initial margin.” As the value of the contract changes, the value of the futures contract position increases or declines. Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin,” are made or received by a Fund, depending on the price fluctuations in the fair value of

the contract and the value of cash or securities on deposit with the broker. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the financial statements. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statements of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized gains (losses). Realized gain or loss on a futures position is equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed, minus brokerage commissions. When a Fund enters into a futures contract certain risks may arise, such as illiquidity in the futures market, which may limit a Fund’s ability to close out a futures contract prior to settlement date, and unanticipated movements in the value of securities or interest rates.
Futures contracts are exchange-traded. Exchange-traded futures contracts are standardized and are settled through a clearing house with fulfillment supported by the credit of the exchange. Therefore, counterparty credit risks to the Funds are reduced; however, in the event that a counterparty enters into bankruptcy, a Fund’s claim against initial/variation margin on deposit with the counterparty may be subject to terms of a final settlement in bankruptcy court.
f. Swaptions. Certain Funds may enter into interest rate swaptions. An interest rate swaption gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to enter into or cancel an interest rate swap agreement at a future date. Interest rate swaptions may be either purchased or written. The buyer of an interest rate swaption may purchase either the right to receive a fixed rate in the underlying swap (known as a “receiver swaption”) or to pay a fixed rate (known as a “payer swaption”), based on the notional amount of the swap agreement, in exchange for a floating rate. The notional amounts of swaptions are not recorded in the financial statements.
When a Fund purchases an interest rate swaption, it pays a premium and the swaption is subsequently marked to market to reflect current value. Premiums paid for purchasing interest rate swaptions which expire are treated as realized losses. Premiums paid for purchasing interest rate swaptions which are exercised are added to the cost or deducted from the proceeds on the underlying swap to determine the realized gain or loss. If a Fund enters into a closing sale transaction, the difference between the premium paid and the proceeds of the closing sale transaction is treated as a realized gain or loss. The risk associated with purchasing interest rate swaptions is limited to the premium paid.
When a Fund writes an interest rate swaption, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current value. Premiums received for written interest rate swaptions which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received for written interest rate swaptions which are exercised are deducted from the cost or added to the proceeds on the underlying swap to determine the realized gain or loss. If a Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the difference between the premium received and any amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including commission, is treated as a realized gain or, if the premium received is less than the amount paid, as a realized loss. A Fund, as writer of a written interest rate swaption, bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the market value of the swap underlying the written interest rate swaption.
Over-the-counter interest rate swaptions are subject to the risk that the counterparty is unable or unwilling to meet its obligations under the swaption.
g. Swap Agreements. The Funds may enter into credit default and interest rate swaps. A credit default swap is an agreement between two parties (the “protection buyer” and “protection seller”) to exchange the credit risk of an issuer (“reference obligation”) for a specified time period. The reference obligation may be one or more debt securities or an index of such securities. The Funds may be either the protection buyer or the protection seller. As a protection buyer, the Funds have the ability to hedge the downside risk of an issuer or group of issuers. As a protection seller, the Funds have the ability to gain exposure to an issuer or group of issuers whose bonds are unavailable or in short supply in the cash bond market, as well as realize additional income in the form of fees paid by the protection buyer. The protection buyer is obligated to pay the protection seller a stream of payments (“fees”) over the term of the contract, provided that no credit event, such as a default or a downgrade in credit rating, occurs on the reference obligation. The Funds may also pay or receive upfront premiums. If a credit event occurs, the protection seller must pay the protection buyer the difference between the agreed upon notional value and market value of the reference obligation. Market value in this case is determined by a facilitated auction whereby a minimum number of allowable broker bids, together with a specified valuation method, are used to calculate the value. The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments that a Fund as the protection seller could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement.
An interest rate swap is an agreement with another party to receive or pay interest (e.g., an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate payments) to protect themselves from interest rate fluctuations. This type of swap is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon or calculated by reference to a specified interest rate(s) for a specified amount. The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to the other.
The notional amounts of swap agreements are not recorded in the financial statements. Swap agreements are valued daily and fluctuations in the value are recorded in the Statements of Operations as change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swap agreements. Fees are accrued in accordance with the terms of the agreement and are recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as fees receivable or payable. When received or paid, fees are recorded in the Statements of Operations as realized gain or loss. Upfront premiums paid or received by the Funds are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability, respectively, and are amortized or accreted over

the term of the agreement and recorded as realized gain or loss. Payments made or received by the Funds as a result of a credit event or termination of the agreement are recorded as realized gain or loss.
Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the over-the-counter market and may be entered into as a bilateral contract or centrally cleared (“centrally cleared swaps”). Bilateral swap agreements are traded between counterparties and, as such, are subject to the risk that a party to the agreement will not be able to meet its obligations. In a centrally cleared swap, immediately following execution of the swap agreement, the swap agreement is novated to a central counterparty (the “CCP”) and the Fund faces the CCP through a broker. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, the Fund is required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities in an amount that varies depending on the size and risk profile of the particular swap. Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin,” are made or received by the Fund based on the daily change in the value of the centrally cleared swap agreement. For centrally cleared swaps, the Fund’s counterparty credit risk is reduced as the CCP stands between the Fund and the counterparty. The Fund covers its net obligations under outstanding swap agreements by segregating or earmarking cash or securities.
h. Delayed Delivery Commitments. The Funds may purchase securities, including those designated as TBAs in the Portfolio of Investments, for which delivery or payment will occur at a later date, beyond the normal settlement period. The price of the security and the date when the security will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The security and the obligation to pay for it are recorded by the Funds at the time the commitment is entered into. The actual security that will be delivered to fulfill a TBA trade is not designated at the time of the trade. The security is “to be announced” 48 hours prior to the established trade settlement date. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations during the time before the Funds take delivery of the security. Certain transactions require the Fund or counterparty to post cash and/or securities as collateral for the net mark-to-market exposure to the other party. The Funds cover their net obligations under outstanding delayed delivery commitments by segregating or earmarking cash or securities at the custodian. No interest accrues to the Funds until the transaction settles.
Purchases of delayed delivery securities may have a similar effect on the Funds’ net asset value as if the Funds had created a degree of leverage in the portfolio. Risks may arise upon entering into such transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet their obligations under the transactions. Additionally, losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities.
i. Federal and Foreign Income Taxes. The Trust treats each Fund as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains at least annually. Management has performed an analysis of each Fund’s tax positions for the open tax years as of March 31, 2014 and has concluded that no provisions for income tax are required. The Funds’ federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably possible to occur in the next six months that would result in the amounts of any unrecognized tax benefits significantly increasing or decreasing for the Funds. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws and accounting regulations and interpretations thereof.
A Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on investment income and taxes on capital gains on investments that are accrued and paid based upon the Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the countries in which the Fund invests. Foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income are reflected on the Statements of Operations as a reduction of investment income, net of amounts eligible to be reclaimed. Dividends and interest receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities are net of foreign withholding taxes. Foreign withholding taxes eligible to be reclaimed are reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as tax reclaims receivable. Capital gains taxes paid are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statements of Operations. Accrued but unpaid capital gains taxes are reflected as foreign taxes payable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable, and reduce unrealized gains on investments. In the event that realized gains on investments are subsequently offset by realized losses, taxes paid on realized gains may be returned to a Fund. Such amounts, if applicable, are reflected as foreign tax rebates receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are recorded as a realized gain when received.
j. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date. The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Permanent differences are primarily due to differing treatments for book and tax purposes of items such as distribution redesignations, foreign currency transactions, defaulted bond adjustments, paydown gains and losses, premium amortization, preferred securities adjustments, capital gain distributions from REIT’s, return of capital distributions received, inflation-protected securities and contingent payment debt instruments. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to capital accounts. Temporary differences between book and tax distributable earnings are primarily due to deferred Trustees’ fees, wash sales, premium amortization, forward foreign currency and futures contracts mark to market, defaulted bond interest, trust preferred securities adjustments, return of capital distributions received, inflation-protected securities and contingent payment debt instruments. Distributions from net investment income and short-term capital gains are considered to be distributed from ordinary income for tax purposes.

The tax characterization of distributions is determined on an annual basis. The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the year ended September 30, 2013 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2013 Distributions Paid From: | |
Fund | | Ordinary Income | | | Long-Term Capital Gains | | | Total | |
Fixed Income Fund | | $ | 59,997,496 | | | $ | 3,797,900 | | | $ | 63,795,396 | |
Global Bond Fund | | | 63,593,656 | | | | — | | | | 63,593,656 | |
Inflation Protected Securities Fund | | | 1,145,195 | | | | 994,279 | | | | 2,139,474 | |
Institutional High Income Fund | | | 41,656,073 | | | | 2,428,639 | | | | 44,084,712 | |
Intermediate Duration Bond Fund | | | 2,858,011 | | | | 424,395 | | | | 3,282,406 | |
Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund | | | 32,364,411 | | | | 5,593,676 | | | | 37,958,087 | |
Differences between these amounts and those reported in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets are primarily attributable to different book and tax treatment for short-term capital gains.
As of September 30, 2013, the late-year ordinary and post-October capital loss deferrals were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Fixed Income Fund | | | Global Bond Fund | | | Inflation Protected Securities Fund | | | Institutional High Income Fund | | | Intermediate Duration Bond Fund | | | Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund | |
Late-year ordinary and post-October Capital loss deferrals* | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | (644,876 | ) | | $ | — | |
* Under current tax law, capital losses, foreign currency losses, and losses on passive foreign investment companies and contingent payment debt instruments after October 31 or December 31, as applicable, may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following taxable year.
k. Repurchase Agreements. Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement, under which each Fund acquires securities as collateral and agrees to resell the securities at an agreed upon time and at an agreed upon price. It is each Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty, including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities. As of March 31, 2014, each Fund had investments in repurchase agreements for which the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement. The gross value of repurchase agreements is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes.
l. Due to/from Brokers. Transactions and positions in certain futures, forward foreign currency contracts, interest rate swaptions and delayed delivery commitments are maintained and cleared by registered U.S. broker/dealers pursuant to customer agreements between a Fund and the various broker/dealers. Due to brokers’ balances in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for Global Bond Fund and Inflation Protected Securities Fund represent cash received as collateral for forward foreign currency contracts or interest rate swaptions. Due from brokers’ balances in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for Global Bond Fund represent cash pledged as collateral for forward foreign currency contracts or delayed delivery securities. In certain circumstances a Fund’s use of cash and/or securities held at brokers is restricted by regulation or broker mandated limits.
m. Securities Lending. The Funds have entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Funds, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at least 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. Government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. Governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Funds invest cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Funds and State Street Bank as lending agent.
For the six months ended March 31, 2014, none of the Funds had loaned securities under this agreement.

n. Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general 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, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
3. Fair Value Measurements. In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Funds have categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of each Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| • | | Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| • | | Level 2—prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and |
| • | | Level 3—prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available). |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The Funds’ pricing policies and procedures are recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Debt securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Funds by an independent pricing service. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used if an independent pricing service either is unable to price a security or does not provide a reliable price for a security. Broker-dealer bid prices for which the Funds do not have knowledge of the inputs used by the broker-dealer are categorized in Level 3. All security prices, including those obtained from an independent pricing service and broker-dealer bid prices, are reviewed on a daily basis by the adviser, subject to oversight by Fund management and the Board of Trustees. If the adviser, in good faith, believes that the price provided by an independent pricing service is unreliable, broker-dealer bid prices may be used until the price provided by the independent pricing service is considered to be reliable. Reliability of all security prices, including those obtained from an independent pricing service and broker-dealer bid prices, is tested in a variety of ways, including comparison to recent transaction prices and daily fluctuations, amongst other validation procedures in place. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valued securities may be categorized in Level 3.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of March 31, 2014, at value:

4. Derivatives. Derivative instruments are defined as financial instruments whose value and performance are based on the value and performance of another security or financial instrument. Derivative instruments that Global Bond Fund used during the period include forward foreign currency contracts and futures contracts. Derivative instruments that Inflation Protected Securities Fund used during the period include futures contracts and swaptions. Derivative instruments that Intermediate Duration Bond Fund used during the period include futures contracts.
Inflation Protected Securities Fund may use interest rate swaptions to gain exposure, such as to enter into a contract to benefit from a rise or fall in interest rates. During the six months ended March 31, 2014, the Fund engaged in interest rate swaptions for this purpose.
Global Bond Fund is subject to the risk that changes in foreign currency exchange rates will have an unfavorable effect on the value of Fund assets denominated in foreign currencies. The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for hedging purposes to protect the value of the Funds’ holdings of foreign securities. The Fund may also use forward foreign currency contracts to gain exposure to foreign currencies, regardless of whether securities denominated in such currencies are held in the Fund. During the six months ended March 31, 2014, Global Bond Fund engaged in forward foreign currency transactions for hedging purposes and to gain exposure to foreign currencies.
Global Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund and Intermediate Duration Bond Fund are subject to the risk that changes in interest rates will affect the value of the Funds’ investments in fixed-income securities. A Fund will be subject to increased interest rate risk to the extent that it invests in fixed-income securities with longer maturities or durations, as compared to investing in fixed-income securities with shorter maturities or durations. The Funds may use futures contracts and interest rate swaptions to hedge against changes in interest rates and to manage their duration without having to buy or sell portfolio securities. During the six months ended March 31, 2014, Global Bond Fund and Intermediate Duration Bond Fund used futures contracts and Inflation Protected Securities Fund used interest rate swaptions to manage duration, Intermediate Duration Bond Fund used futures contracts to hedge against changes in interest rates, and Inflation Protected Securities Fund used futures contracts and interest rate swaptions to hedge against changes in interest rates.

The Funds’ investments in derivatives may represent an economic hedge; however, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for the purpose of these disclosures.

Over-the-counter derivatives, including forward foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaptions, are entered into pursuant to International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) agreements negotiated between the Funds and their counterparties. ISDA agreements typically contain, among other things, terms for the posting of collateral and master netting provisions in the event of a default or other termination event. Collateral is posted by a Fund or the counterparty to the extent of the net mark-to-market exposure to the other party of all open contracts under the agreement, subject to minimum transfer requirements. Master netting provisions allow the Funds and the counterparty, in the event of a default or other termination event, to offset amounts owed by each related to derivative contracts, including any posted collateral, to one net amount payable by either the Funds or the counterparty. The Funds’ ISDA agreements typically contain provisions that allow a counterparty to terminate open contracts early if the net asset value of a Fund declines beyond a certain threshold. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and liabilities, and any related collateral received or pledged, on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of March 31, 2014, gross amounts of over-the-counter derivative assets and liabilities not offset in the Statement of Assets & Liabilities and the related net amounts after taking into account master netting arrangements, by counterparty, are as follows:

The actual collateral received or pledged may exceed the amounts shown in the table due to overcollateralization. Timing differences may exist between when contracts under the ISDA agreements are marked-to-market and when collateral moves. The ISDA agreements include tri-party control agreements under which collateral is held for the benefit of the secured party at a third party custodian, State Street Bank.
Counterparty risk is managed based on policies and procedures established by each Fund’s adviser. Such policies and procedures may include, but are not limited to, minimum counterparty credit rating requirements, monitoring of counterparty credit default swap spreads and posting of collateral. The risk of loss to a Fund from counterparty default should be limited to the extent a Fund is under collateralized for over-the-counter derivatives; however, final settlement of a Fund’s claim against any collateral received may be subject to bankruptcy court proceedings. Additionally, cash or securities held at or pledged to counterparties for initial/variation margin for futures contracts and centrally cleared swap agreements or as collateral for over-the-counter derivatives may be subject to bankruptcy court proceedings. Based on the balances reflected on each Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities, including cash and securities held at or pledged to counterparties for initial/variation margin or as collateral that could be subject to the terms of a final settlement in a bankruptcy court proceeding, the maximum amount of loss that the Funds would incur if counterparties failed to meet their obligations, and the amount of loss that the Funds would incur after taking into account master netting arrangements pursuant to ISDA agreements, are as follows as of March 31, 2014:
| | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Maximum Amount of Loss – Gross | | | Maximum Amount of Loss – Net | |
Global Bond Fund | | $ | 7,365,406 | | | $ | 5,250,640 | |
Inflation Protected Securities Fund | | | 866,783 | | | | 113,635 | |
Intermediate Duration Bond Fund | | | 24,994 | | | | 24,994 | |

d. Sub-Transfer Agent Fees. NGAM Distribution has entered into agreements, which include servicing agreements, with financial intermediaries that provide recordkeeping, processing, shareholder communications and other services to customers of the intermediaries that hold positions in the Funds and has agreed to compensate the intermediaries for providing those services. Intermediaries transact with the Funds primarily through the use of omnibus accounts on behalf of their customers who hold positions in the Funds. These services would have been provided by the Funds’ transfer agent and other service providers if the shareholders’ accounts were maintained directly at the Funds’ transfer agent. Accordingly, the Funds have agreed to reimburse NGAM Distribution for all or a portion of the servicing fees paid to these intermediaries. The reimbursement amounts (sub-transfer agent fees) paid to NGAM Distribution are subject to a current per-account equivalent fee limit approved by the Funds’ Board, which is based on fees for similar services paid to the Funds’ transfer agent and other service providers. Class N shares do not bear such expenses.
For the six months ended March 31, 2014, the sub-transfer agent fees (which are reflected in transfer agent fees and expenses in the Statements of Operations) for each Fund were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Sub-Transfer Agent Fees | |
Fund | | Institutional Class | | | Retail Class | |
Global Bond Fund | | $ | 1,253,051 | | | $ | 356,654 | |

e. Trustees Fees and Expenses. The Trust does not pay any compensation directly to its officers or Trustees who are directors, officers or employees of NGAM Advisors, NGAM Distribution, Natixis US or their affiliates. Effective January 1, 2014, the Chairperson of the Board receives a retainer fee at the annual rate of $300,000. The Chairperson does not receive any meeting attendance fees for Board of Trustees meetings or committee meetings that she attends. Each Independent Trustee (other than the Chairperson) receives, in the aggregate, a retainer fee at the annual rate of $130,000. Each Independent Trustee also receives a meeting attendance fee of $10,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends in person and $5,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends telephonically. In addition, each committee chairperson (except for the Chairperson of the Governance Committee) receives an additional retainer fee at an annual rate of $17,500. Each Contract Review Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. Each Audit Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. These fees are allocated among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series based on a formula that takes into account, among other factors, the relative net assets of each Fund. Trustees are reimbursed for travel expenses in connection with attendance at meetings.
Prior to January 1, 2014, the Chairperson of the Board received a retainer fee at the annual rate of $285,000 and each Independent Trustee (other than the Chairperson) received, in the aggregate, a retainer fee at the annual rate of $115,000. All other Trustee fees remained unchanged.
A deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) is available to the Trustees on a voluntary basis. Deferred amounts remain in the Funds until distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. The value of a participating Trustee’s deferral account is based on theoretical investments of deferred amounts, on the normal payment dates, in certain funds of the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series as designated by the participating Trustees. Changes in the value of participants’ deferral accounts are

8. Line of Credit. Each Fund, together with certain other funds of Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series, participates in a $200,000,000 committed unsecured line of credit provided by State Street Bank, with an individual limit of $125,000,000 for each Fund that participates in the line of credit. Interest is charged to each participating Fund based on its borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds rate or overnight LIBOR, plus 1.25%. In addition, a commitment fee of 0.10% per annum, payable at the end of each calendar quarter, is accrued and apportioned among the participating funds based on their average daily unused portion of the line of credit.
For the six months ended March 31, 2014, none of the Funds had borrowings under this agreement.
9. Concentration of Risk. Each Fund’s investments in foreign securities are subject to foreign currency fluctuations, higher volatility than U.S. securities, varying degrees of regulation and limited liquidity. Greater political, economic, credit and information risks are also associated with foreign securities.
10. Concentration of Ownership. From time to time, the Funds may have a concentration of one or more accounts constituting a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities by holders of such accounts could have material impacts on the Funds. As of March 31, 2014, based on management’s evaluation of the shareholder account base, the Funds had accounts representing controlling ownership of more than 5% of the Funds’ total outstanding shares. The number of such accounts, based on accounts that represent more than 5% of an individual class of shares, and the aggregate percentage of net assets represented by such holdings was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Number of >5% Non-Affiliated Account Holders | | | Percentage of Non-Affiliated Ownership | | | Percentage of Affiliated Ownership (Note 6) | | | Total Percentage of Ownership | |

Omnibus shareholder accounts for which NGAM Advisors understands that the intermediary has discretion over the underlying shareholder accounts or investment models where a shareholder account may be invested for a non-discretionary customer are included in the table above. For other omnibus accounts, the Funds do not have information on the individual shareholder accounts underlying omnibus accounts; therefore, there could be other 5% shareholders in addition to those disclosed in the table above.

12. Redemption In-Kind. In certain circumstances, a Fund may distribute portfolio securities rather than cash as payment for redemption of Fund shares (redemption in-kind). For financial reporting purposes, the Fund will recognize a gain on in-kind redemptions to the extent the value of the distributed securities on the date of redemption exceeds the cost of those securities; the Fund will recognize a loss if the cost exceeds value. Gains and losses realized on redemptions in-kind are not recognized for tax purposes, and are re-classified from realized gain (loss) to paid-in-capital. The Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund realized a gain of $12,613,047 on redemptions in-kind during the six months ended March 31, 2014. This amount is included in realized gain (loss) on the Statements of Operations.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Index Definitions
Indexes are unmanaged and do not have expenses that affect results, unlike mutual funds. Index returns are adjusted for the reinvestment of capital gain distributions and income dividends. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
Barclays U.S. Corporate High-Yield Bond Index is an unmanaged index that covers the U.S.-dollar-denominated, non-investment grade, fixed-rate, taxable corporate bond market.
Barclays U.S. Securitized Bond Index is an unmanaged index of asset-backed securities, collateralized mortgage-backed securities (ERISA-eligible), and fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities.
Proxy Voting Information
A description of the Funds’ proxy voting policies and procedures is available without charge, upon request, (i) by calling Loomis Sayles at 800-633-3330; (ii) on the Funds’ website, www.loomissayles.com, and (iii) on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC’s”) website at www.sec.gov. Information about how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the 12-month period ended June 30, 2013 is available on (i) the Funds’ website and (ii) the SEC’s website.
Quarterly Portfolio Schedules
The Funds file a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Funds’ Forms N-Q are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 800-SEC-0330.

Such owner is not affiliated with Natixis Global Asset Management or any of its related or affiliated companies (collectively “NGAM”) and does not sponsor, endorse or participate in the provision of any NGAM services, funds or other financial products.

UNDERSTANDING FUND EXPENSES
Typically, mutual fund shareholders incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution fees (12b-1 fees), and other fund expenses. However, the funds are unlike other mutual funds; they do not charge any fees or expenses.
You should be aware that shares in the Funds are available only to institutional investment advisory clients of Loomis, Sayles & Company, L.P. (“Loomis Sayles”) and NGAM Advisors, L.P. (“NGAM Advisors”) and to participants in “wrap fee” programs sponsored by broker-dealers and investment advisers that may be affiliated or unaffiliated with the Funds, Loomis Sayles or NGAM Advisors. The institutional investment advisory clients of Loomis Sayles and NGAM Advisors pay Loomis Sayles or NGAM Advisors a fee for their investment advisory services, while participants in “wrap fee” programs pay a “wrap fee” to the program’s sponsor. The “wrap fee” program sponsors, in turn, pay a fee to NGAM Advisors. “Wrap fee” program participants should read carefully the wrap fee brochure provided to them by their program’s sponsor and the fees paid by such sponsor to NGAM Advisors. Shareholders pay no additional fees or expenses to purchase shares of the Funds. However, shareholders will indirectly pay a proportionate share of those costs, such as brokerage commissions, taxes and extraordinary expenses, that are borne by the Funds through a reduction in each Fund’s net asset value.
The first line in each Fund’s table shows the actual amount of Fund expenses ($0) you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in the Fund from October 1, 2013 through March 31, 2014.
The second line in each Fund’s table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio (0%) and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid on your investment 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 reflect ongoing costs only, and do not include any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included, total costs would be higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
1. Organization. Loomis Sayles Funds I (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of the Trust in multiple series. The financial statements for certain funds of the Trust are presented in separate reports. The following funds (individually, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are included in this report:
Loomis Sayles High Income Opportunities Fund (the “High Income Opportunities Fund”)
Loomis Sayles Securitized Asset Fund (the “Securitized Asset Fund”)
Each Fund is a diversified investment company.
Each Fund offers Institutional Class shares. The Funds’ shares are offered exclusively to investors in “wrap fee” programs approved by NGAM Advisors, L.P. (“NGAM Advisors”) and/or Loomis, Sayles & Company, L.P. (“Loomis Sayles”) and to institutional advisory clients of NGAM Advisors or Loomis Sayles that, in each case, meet the Funds’ policies as established by Loomis Sayles.
2. Significant Accounting Policies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The Funds’ financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to period-end through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no material events that would require disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.
a. Valuation. Fund securities and other investments are valued at market value based on market quotations obtained or determined by independent pricing services recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, as described below. Market value is determined as follows:
Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Funds by an independent pricing service, using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities, if available, or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers. Senior loans are valued at bid prices supplied by an independent pricing service, if available. Equity securities (including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) are valued at the last sale price quoted on the exchange or market where traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking an NOCP, at the most recent bid quotations on the applicable NASDAQ Market. In some foreign markets, an official close price and a last sale price may be available from the foreign exchange or market. In those cases, the official close price is used. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to value debt and equity securities and senior loans where an independent pricing service is unable to price a security or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued utilizing interpolated prices determined from information provided by an independent pricing service. Futures contracts are valued at the current settlement price on the exchange on which the adviser believes that, over time, they are traded most extensively. Short-term obligations (purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value).
Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Funds may also value securities and other investments at fair value in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market but prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing its securities or other investments, the Funds may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities or other market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the time the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security, and fair values used to determine a Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same securities. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities held by a Fund.
b. Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one day basis for daily net asset value calculation. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on ex-dividend date, or in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as a Fund is notified, and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Interest income is increased by the accretion of discount and decreased by the amortization of premium. In determining net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities has been determined on an identified cost basis.

c. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions.
Since the values of investment securities are presented at the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period, it is not practical to isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in exchange rates from fluctuations which arise due to changes in market prices of investment securities. Such changes are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currency, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investment securities, at the end of the fiscal period, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
The Funds may use foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign denominated investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts’ terms.
d. Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. The Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts, including forward foreign cross currency contracts, to acquire exposure to foreign currencies or to hedge the Funds’ investments against currency fluctuation. A contract can also be used to offset a previous contract. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The U.S. dollar value of the currencies a Fund has committed to buy or sell represents the aggregate exposure to each currency a Fund has acquired or hedged through currency contracts outstanding at period end. Gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until settlement date. Contracts are traded over-the-counter directly with a counterparty. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Certain contracts may require the movement of cash and/or securities as collateral for the Funds’ or counterparty’s net obligations under the contracts.
No forward foreign currency contracts were held by the Funds during the six months ended March 31, 2014.
e. Futures Contracts. The Funds may enter into futures contracts. Futures contracts are agreements between two parties to buy and sell a particular commodity, instrument or index for a specified price on a specified future date.
When a Fund enters into a futures contract, it is required to deposit with (or for the benefit of) its broker an amount of cash or short-term high quality securities as “initial margin.” As the value of the contract changes, the value of the futures contract position increases or declines. Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin,” are made or received by a Fund, depending on the price fluctuations in the fair value of the contract and the value of cash or securities on deposit with the broker. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the financial statements. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (liability) and in the Statements of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized gains (losses). Realized gain or loss on a futures position is equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed, minus brokerage commissions. When a Fund enters into a futures contract certain risks may arise, such as illiquidity in the futures market, which may limit a Fund’s ability to close out a futures contract prior to settlement date, and unanticipated movements in the value of securities, commodities or interest rates.
Futures contracts are exchange-traded. Exchange-traded futures contracts are standardized and are settled through a clearing house with fulfillment supported by the credit of the exchange. Therefore, counterparty credit risks to the Funds are reduced; however, in the event that a counterparty enters into bankruptcy, the Fund’s claim against initial/variation margin on deposit with the counterparty may be subject to terms of a final settlement in bankruptcy court.
f. Delayed Delivery Commitments. The Funds may purchase securities, including those designated as TBAs in the Portfolio of Investments, for which delivery or payment will occur at a later date, beyond the normal settlement period. The price of the security and the date when the security will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The security and the obligation to pay for it are recorded by the Fund at the time the commitment is entered into. The actual security that will be delivered to fulfill a TBA trade is not designated at the time of the trade. The security is “to be announced” 48 hours prior to the established trade settlement date. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations during the time before the Fund takes delivery of the security. Certain transactions require the Fund or counterparty to post cash and/or securities as collateral for the net mark-to-market exposure to the other party. The Funds cover their net obligations under outstanding delayed delivery commitments by segregating or earmarking cash or securities at the custodian. No interest accrues to the Fund until the transaction settles.

Purchases of delayed delivery securities may have a similar effect on the Fund’s net asset value as if the Fund had created a degree of leverage in the portfolio. Risks may arise upon entering into such transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet their obligations under the transactions. Additionally, losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities.
g. Federal and Foreign Income Taxes. The Trust treats each Fund as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its investment income and any net realized capital gains at least annually. Management has performed an analysis of each Fund’s tax positions for the open tax years as of March 31, 2014 and has concluded that no provisions for income tax are required. The Funds’ federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably possible to occur in the next six months that would result in the amounts of any unrecognized tax benefits significantly increasing or decreasing for the Funds. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws and accounting regulations and interpretations thereof.
A Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on investment income and taxes on capital gains on investments that are accrued and paid based upon the Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the countries in which the Fund invests. Foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income are reflected on the Statements of Operations as a reduction of investment income, net of amounts eligible to be reclaimed. Dividends and interest receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities are net of foreign withholding taxes. Foreign withholding taxes eligible to be reclaimed are reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as tax reclaims receivable. Capital gains taxes paid are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statements of Operations. Accrued but unpaid capital gains taxes are reflected as foreign taxes payable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable, and reduce unrealized gains on investments. In the event that realized gains on investments are subsequently offset by realized losses, taxes paid on realized gains may be returned to a Fund. Such amounts, if applicable, are reflected as foreign tax rebates receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are recorded as a realized gain when received.
h. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date. The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Permanent differences are primarily due to differing treatments for book and tax purposes of items such as premium amortization, defaulted bonds, contingent payment debt instruments, foreign currency gains and losses, return of capital distributions received, taxable overdistribution and paydown gains and losses. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to capital accounts. Temporary differences between book and tax distributable earnings are primarily due to defaulted bonds, premium amortization, return of capital distributions received, trust preferred securities, contingent payment debt instruments, futures contracts mark to market and wash sales. Distributions from net investment income and short-term capital gains are considered to be distributed from ordinary income for tax purposes.
The tax characterization of distributions is determined on an annual basis. The tax characterization of distributions paid to shareholders during the year ended September 30, 2013 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2013 Distributions Paid From: | |
Fund | | Ordinary Income | | | Long-Term Capital Gains | | | Total | |
High Income Opportunities Fund | | $ | 4,807,228 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 4,807,228 | |
Securitized Asset Fund | | | 39,095,960 | | | | 7,514,884 | | | | 46,610,844 | |
Differences between these amounts and those reported in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets are primarily attributable to different book and tax treatment for short-term capital gains.
As of September 30, 2013, the capital loss carryforwards and post-October capital loss deferrals were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | High Income Opportunities Fund | | | Securitized Asset Fund | |
Capital loss carryforward: | | | | | | | | |
Expires September 30, 2018 | | $ | (3,066,782 | ) | | $ | — | |
Post-October capital loss deferrals* | | | — | | | | (9,896,941 | ) |
* Under current tax law, capital losses after October 31 may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following taxable year.
i. Repurchase Agreements. Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement, under which each Fund acquires securities as collateral and agrees to resell the securities at an agreed upon time and at an agreed upon price. It is each Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the

benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty, including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities. As of March 31, 2014, each Fund had investments in repurchase agreements for which the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement. The gross value of repurchase agreements is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes.
j. Due from Brokers. Transactions and positions in certain futures, forward foreign currency contracts and delayed delivery commitments are maintained and cleared by registered U.S. broker/dealers pursuant to customer agreements between the Funds and the various broker/dealers. Due from brokers’ balances in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for Securitized Asset Fund represent cash pledged for delayed delivery securities. In certain circumstances, the Fund’s use of cash held at brokers is restricted by regulation or broker mandated limits.
k. Securities Lending. The Funds have entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Funds, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at least 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. Government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. Governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Funds invest cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Funds and State Street Bank as lending agent.
For the six months ended March 31, 2014, neither Fund had loaned securities under this agreement.
l. Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general 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, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
3. Fair Value Measurements. In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Funds have categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of each Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| • | | Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| • | | Level 2—prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and |
| • | | Level 3—prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available). |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The Funds’ pricing policies and procedures are recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Debt securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Funds by an independent pricing service. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used if an independent pricing service either is unable to price a security or does not provide a reliable price for a security. Broker-dealer bid prices for which the Funds do not have knowledge of the inputs used by the broker-dealer are categorized in Level 3. All security prices, including those obtained from an independent pricing service and broker-dealer bid prices, are reviewed on a daily basis by the adviser, subject to oversight by Fund management and the Board of Trustees. If the adviser, in good faith, believes that the price provided by an independent pricing service is unreliable, broker-dealer bid prices may be used until the price provided by the independent pricing service is considered to be reliable. Reliability of all security prices, including those obtained from an independent pricing service and broker-dealer bid prices, is tested in a variety of ways, including comparison to recent transaction prices and daily fluctuations, amongst other validation procedures in place. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Securities fair valued using significant unobservable inputs are categorized in Level 3.

Preferred stocks valued at $210,617 were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 during the period ended March 31, 2014. At March 31, 2014, these securities were valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service as a market price was not available.
All transfers are recognized as of the beginning of the reporting period.
The Fund does not have knowledge of the inputs used for those securities categorized in Level 3 that are valued using broker-dealer bid prices. The significant unobservable inputs used for those securities fair valued by the adviser and categorized in Level 3 as of March 31, 2014, were as follows:

1 Security is valued using an option adjusted spread model. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement is the option adjusted spread, which is based on a market comparable company. A significant change in the option adjusted spread could have a material effect on the fair value measurement. There is an inverse relationship between the option adjusted spread and the fair value measurement, meaning a significant increase in the option adjusted spread would result in a lower fair value measurement, and vice versa.

2 Securities are valued using a discounted cash flow model. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement is the discount rate, which is based on the investment adviser’s assumptions about the prepayment rate, credit quality, and liquidity, among other considerations. A significant change in the discount rate could have a material effect on the fair value measurement. There is an inverse relationship between the discount rate and the fair value measurement, meaning a significant increase in the discount rate would result in a lower fair value measurement, and vice versa.
3 Security is valued at parity value, discounted to reflect the small size and complexity of the issue. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement is the discount rate. A significant change in the discount rate could have a material effect on the fair value measurement. There is an inverse relationship between the discount rate and the fair value measurement, meaning a significant increase in the discount rate would result in a lower fair value measurement, and vice versa.

A debt security valued at $105,086 was transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 during the period ended March 31, 2014. At March 31, 2014, this security was valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service in accordance with the Fund’s valuation policies.
All transfers are recognized as of the beginning of the reporting period.
4. Derivatives. Derivative instruments are defined as financial instruments whose value and performance are based on the value and performance of another security or financial instrument. Derivative instruments that the Funds used during the period include futures contracts.
The Funds are subject to the risk that changes in interest rates will affect the value of the Funds’ investments in fixed-income securities. The Funds will be subject to increased interest rate risk to the extent that they invest in fixed-income securities with longer maturities or durations, as compared to investing in fixed-income securities with shorter maturities or durations. The Funds may use futures contracts to hedge against changes in interest rates and to manage their duration in order to control interest rate risk without having to buy or sell portfolio securities. During the six months ended March 31, 2014, High Income Opportunities Fund used futures contracts to manage duration and Securitized Asset Fund used futures contracts for hedging purposes and to manage duration.
The following is a summary of derivative instruments for High Income Opportunities Fund as of March 31, 2014, as reflected within the Statements of Assets and Liabilities:
| | | | |
Liabilities | | Unrealized depreciation on futures contracts1 | |
Exchange traded/cleared liability derivatives | | | | |
Interest rate contracts | | $ | (16,112 | ) |
1 Represents cumulative unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts. Only the current day’s variation margin on futures contracts is reported within the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as receivable or payable for variation margin, as applicable.
Transactions in derivative instruments for High Income Opportunities Fund during the six months ended March 31, 2014 as reflected in the Statements of Operations were as follows:

Transactions in derivative instruments for Securitized Asset Fund during the six months ended March 31, 2014 as reflected in the Statements of Operations were as follows:
| | | | |
Net Realized Gain (Loss) on: | | Futures contracts | |
Interest rate contracts | | $ | 830,202 | |
| | | | |
Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on: | | Futures contracts | |
Interest rate contracts | | $ | 603,102 | |
As the Funds value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statements of Operations, they do not qualify for hedge accounting under authoritative guidance for derivative instruments. The Funds’ investments in derivatives may represent an economic hedge; however, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for the purpose of these disclosures.
The volume of futures activity, as a percentage of net assets, based on gross month-end notional amounts outstanding during the period, including long and short positions at absolute value, was as follows for the six months ended March 31, 2014:
| | | | |
High Income Opportunities Fund | | Futures | |
Average Notional Amount Outstanding | | | 1.40% | |
Highest Notional Amount Outstanding | | | 4.42% | |
Lowest Notional Amount Outstanding | | | 0.00% | |
Notional Amount Outstanding as of March 31, 2014 | | | 4.42% | |
| | | | |
Securitized Asset Fund | | Futures | |
Average Notional Amount Outstanding | | | 10.52% | |
Highest Notional Amount Outstanding | | | 12.12% | |
Lowest Notional Amount Outstanding | | | 8.55% | |
Notional Amount Outstanding as of March 31, 2014 | | | 11.32% | |
Notional amounts outstanding at the end of the prior period are included in the average notional amount outstanding.
Unrealized gain and/or loss on open futures is recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The aggregate notional values of futures contracts are not recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, and therefore are not included in the Funds’ net assets.
Counterparty risk is managed based on policies and procedures established by each Fund’s adviser. Such policies and procedures include, but are not limited to, minimum counterparty credit rating requirements, monitoring of counterparty credit default swap spreads and posting of collateral. The risk of loss to a Fund from counterparty default should be limited to the extent a Fund is under collateralized for over-the-counter derivatives; however, final settlement of a Fund’s claim against any collateral received may be subject to bankruptcy court proceedings. Additionally, cash or securities held at or pledged to counterparties for initial/variation margin for futures contracts or as collateral for over-the-counter derivatives may be subject to bankruptcy court proceedings. Based on balances reflected on the Funds’ Statement of Assets and Liabilities, including cash and securities held at or pledged to counterparties for initial/variation margin or as collateral that could be subject to the terms of a final settlement in a bankruptcy court proceeding, the maximum amount of loss that the Funds would incur if counterparties failed to meet their obligations, and the amount of loss that the Funds would incur after taking into account master netting arrangements pursuant to ISDA agreements, are as follows as of March 31, 2014:
| | | | | | | | |
Fund | | Maximum Amount of Loss - Gross | | | Maximum Amount of Loss - Net | |
High Income Opportunities Fund | | $ | 77,804 | | | $ | 77,804 | |

6. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
a. Management Fees. Loomis Sayles has agreed to pay, without reimbursement from the Funds or the Trust, the following expenses of the Funds: compensation to Trustees of the Trust who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Trust; registration, filing and other fees in connection with requirements of regulatory authorities; the charges and expenses of any entity appointed by the Funds for custodial, paying agent, shareholder servicing and plan agent services; charges and expenses of the independent registered public accounting firm retained by the Funds; charges and expenses of any transfer agents and registrars appointed by the Funds; any cost of certificates representing shares of the Funds; legal fees and expenses in connection with the day-to-day affairs of the Funds, including registering and qualifying its shares with Federal and State regulatory authorities; expenses of meetings of shareholders and Trustees of the Trust; the costs of services, including services of counsel, required in connection with the preparation of the Funds’ registration statements and prospectuses, including amendments and revisions thereto, annual, semi-annual and other periodic reports of the Funds, and notices and proxy solicitation material furnished to shareholders of the Funds or regulatory authorities, and any costs of printing or mailing these items; and the Funds’ expenses of bookkeeping, accounting and financial reporting, including related clerical expenses and all other expenses incurred.
Loomis Sayles serves as investment adviser to each Fund. Under the terms of each management agreement, Loomis Sayles does not charge the Funds an investment advisory fee, also known as a management fee, or any other fee for those services or for bearing those expenses. Although the Funds do not compensate Loomis Sayles directly for services under the advisory agreement, Loomis Sayles will typically receive an advisory fee from the sponsors of “wrap programs,” who in turn charge the programs’ participants.
Certain officers and employees of Loomis Sayles are also officers or Trustees of the Trust. Loomis Sayles’ general partner is indirectly owned by Natixis Global Asset Management, L.P. (“Natixis US”), which is part of Natixis Global Asset Management, an international asset management group based in Paris, France.
b. Service and Distribution Fees. NGAM Distribution, L.P. (“NGAM Distribution”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Natixis US has entered into a distribution agreement with the Trust. Pursuant to this agreement, NGAM Distribution serves as principal underwriter of the Funds of the Trust. NGAM Distribution currently is not paid a fee for serving as distributor for the Funds. Loomis Sayles has agreed to reimburse NGAM Distribution to the extent that NGAM Distribution incurs expenses in connection with any redemption of Fund shares.
c. Administrative Fees. NGAM Advisors provides certain administrative services for the Funds and contracts with State Street Bank to serve as sub-administrator. NGAM Advisors is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Natixis US. Loomis Sayles has agreed to pay, without reimbursement from the Trust or Funds, fees to NGAM Advisors for services to the Funds.
d. Trustees Fees and Expenses. The Trust does not pay any compensation directly to its officers or Trustees who are directors, officers or employees of NGAM Advisors, NGAM Distribution, Natixis US or their affiliates. Effective January 1, 2014, the Chairperson of the Board receives a retainer fee at the annual rate of $300,000. The Chairperson does not receive any meeting attendance fees for Board of Trustees meetings or committee meetings that she attends. Each Independent Trustee (other than the Chairperson) receives, in the aggregate, a retainer fee at the annual rate of $130,000. Each Independent Trustee also receives a meeting attendance fee of $10,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends in person and $5,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends telephonically. In addition, each committee chairperson (except for the Chairperson of the Governance Committee) receives an additional retainer fee at an annual rate of $17,500. Each Contract Review Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. Each Audit Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. These fees are allocated among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series based on a formula that takes into account, among other factors, the relative net assets of each Fund. Trustees are reimbursed for travel expenses in connection with attendance at meetings. Fees and expenses allocated to the Funds are paid by Loomis Sayles without reimbursement from the Funds.
Prior to January 1, 2014, the Chairperson of the Board received a retainer fee at the annual rate of $285,000 and each Independent Trustee (other than the Chairperson) received, in the aggregate, a retainer fee at the annual rate of $115,000. All other Trustee fees remained unchanged.
A deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) is available to the Trustees on a voluntary basis. The value of a participating Trustee’s deferral account is based on theoretical investments of deferred amounts, on the normal payment dates, in certain funds of the Natixis Funds Trusts,
33 |
Notes to Financial Statements – continued
March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series as designated by the participating Trustees. Changes in the value of participants’ deferral accounts are allocated pro rata among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts, and Hansberger International Series. The portions of the accrued obligations allocated to the Funds and distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan are paid by Loomis Sayles without reimbursement from the Funds.
7. Line of Credit. Each Fund, together with certain other funds of Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series, participates in a $200,000,000 committed unsecured line of credit provided by State Street Bank, with an individual limit of $125,000,000 for each Fund that participates in the line of credit. Interest is charged to each participating Fund based on its borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds rate or overnight LIBOR, plus 1.25%. In addition, a commitment fee of 0.10% per annum, payable at the end of each calendar quarter, is accrued and apportioned among the participating funds based on their average daily unused portion of the line of credit.
For the six months ended March 31, 2014, neither Fund had borrowings under this agreement.
8. Concentration of Risk. Securitized Asset Fund’s investments in mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are subject to certain risks not associated with investments in other securities. Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are subject to the risk that unexpected changes in interest rates will have a direct effect on expected maturity. A shortened maturity may result in the reinvestment of prepaid amounts in securities with lower yields than the original obligations. An extended maturity may result in a reduction of a security’s value.
9. Concentration of Ownership. From time to time, a Fund may have a concentration of one or more accounts constituting a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities by holders of such accounts could have material impacts on the Funds. As of March 31, 2014, based on management’s evaluation of the shareholder account base, High Income Opportunities Fund had accounts representing controlling ownership of more than 5% of the Fund’s total outstanding shares. The number of such accounts, based on accounts that represent more than 5% of an individual class of shares, and the aggregate percentage of net assets represented by such holdings was as follows:
| | | | |
Fund | | Number of >5% Non-Affiliated Account Holders | | Percentage of Non-Affiliated Ownership |
High Income Opportunities Fund | | 2 | | 31.41% |
Omnibus shareholder accounts for which NGAM Advisors understands that the intermediary has discretion over the underlying shareholder accounts or investment models where a shareholder account may be invested for a non-discretionary customer are included in the table above. For other omnibus accounts, the Funds do not have information on the individual shareholder accounts underlying omnibus accounts; therefore, there could be other 5% shareholders in addition to those disclosed in the table above.
10. Capital Shares. Each Fund may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, without par value. Transactions in capital shares were as follows:

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
As a mutual fund shareholder you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service fees (12b-1 fees),
3 |
and other fund expenses. Certain exemptions may apply. These costs are described in more detail in the funds’ prospectus. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the funds and help you compare these with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The first line in the table of each fund shows the actual amount of fund expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in the fund from October 1, 2013 through March 31, 2014. To estimate the expenses you paid over the period, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6) and multiply the result by the number in the Expenses Paid During Period column as shown below for your class.
The second line in the table of each fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the fund’s actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid on your investment for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the funds to other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown reflect ongoing costs only, and do not include any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included, total costs would be higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
1. Organization. Loomis Sayles Funds I and Loomis Sayles Funds II (the “Trusts” and each a “Trust”) are each organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Each Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Each Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of the Trust in multiple series. The financial statements for certain funds of the Trusts are presented in separate reports. The following funds (individually, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are included in this report:
Loomis Sayles Funds I:
Loomis Sayles Small Cap Value Fund (the “Small Cap Value Fund”)
Loomis Sayles Funds II:
Loomis Sayles Small Cap Growth Fund (the “Small Cap Growth Fund”)
Each Fund is a diversified investment company.
Small Cap Growth Fund and Small Cap Value Fund were closed to new investors effective September 14, 2012 and September 15, 2008, respectively. The Funds continue to offer Institutional Class, Retail Class and Class N shares to existing investors and Small Cap Value Fund continues to offer Admin Class shares to existing investors.
Most expenses of the Trusts can be directly attributed to a Fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are generally apportioned based on the relative net assets of each of the Funds in the Trusts. Expenses of a Fund are borne pro rata by the holders of each class of shares, except that each class bears expenses unique to that class (including the Rule 12b-1 service and distribution fees and transfer agent fees). In addition, each class votes as a class only with respect to its own Rule 12b-1 Plan. Shares of each class would receive their pro rata share of the net assets of a Fund if the Fund were liquidated. The Trustees approve separate distributions from net investment income on each class of shares.
2. Significant Accounting Policies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The Funds’ financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to period-end through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no material events that would require disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.
a. Valuation. Fund securities and other investments are valued at market value based on market quotations obtained or determined by independent pricing services recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as
27 |
Notes to Financial Statements – continued
March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, as described below. Market value is determined as follows:
Equity securities (including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) are valued at the last sale price quoted on the exchange or market where traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking an NOCP, at the most recent bid quotations on the applicable NASDAQ Market. In some foreign markets, an official close price and a last sale price may be available from the foreign exchange or market. In those cases, the official close price is used. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities, if available, or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to value debt and equity securities where an independent pricing service is unable to price a security or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. Short-term obligations (purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value.)
Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Funds may also value securities and other investments at fair value in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market but prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing its securities or other investments, the Funds may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities or other market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the time the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security, and fair values used to determine a Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same securities. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities held by a Fund.
b. Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one day basis for daily net asset value calculation. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on ex-dividend date, or in the case of certain foreign
| 28

securities, as soon as a Fund is notified, and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Interest income is increased by the accretion of discount and decreased by the amortization of premium. Distributions received from investments in securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of the investments or as a realized gain, respectively. The calendar year-end amounts of ordinary income, capital gains, and return of capital included in distributions received from the Funds’ investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) are reported to the Funds after the end of the fiscal year; accordingly, the Funds estimate these amounts for accounting purposes until the characterization of REIT distributions is reported to the Funds after the end of the fiscal year. Estimates are based on the most recent REIT distribution information available. In determining net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities has been determined on an identified cost basis. Investment income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund.
c. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions.
Since the values of investment securities are presented at the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period, it is not practical to isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in exchange rates from fluctuations which arise due to changes in market prices of investment securities. Such changes are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currency, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investment securities, at the end of the fiscal period, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
Each Fund may use foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts’ terms.
d. Federal and Foreign Income Taxes. Each Trust treats each Fund as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains at least annually. Management has performed an analysis of each
29 |
Notes to Financial Statements – continued
March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
Fund’s tax positions for the open tax years as of March 31, 2014 and has concluded that no provisions for income tax are required. The Funds’ federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably possible to occur in the next six months that would result in the amounts of any unrecognized tax benefits significantly increasing or decreasing for the Funds. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws and accounting regulations and interpretations thereof.
A Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on investment income and taxes on capital gains on investments that are accrued and paid based upon the Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the countries in which the Fund invests. Foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income are reflected on the Statements of Operations as a reduction of investment income, net of amounts eligible to be reclaimed. Dividends and interest receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities are net of foreign withholding taxes. Foreign withholding taxes eligible to be reclaimed are reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as tax reclaims receivable. Capital gains taxes paid are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statements of Operations. Accrued but unpaid capital gains taxes are reflected as foreign taxes payable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable, and reduce unrealized gains on investments. In the event that realized gains on investments are subsequently offset by realized losses, taxes paid on realized gains may be returned to a Fund. Such amounts, if applicable, are reflected as foreign tax rebates receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are recorded as a realized gain when received.
e. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date. The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Permanent differences are primarily due to differing treatments for book and tax purposes of items such as return of capital distributions received and net operating losses. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to capital accounts. Temporary differences between book and tax distributable earnings are primarily due to return of capital distributions received, deferred Trustees’ fees and wash sales. Distributions from net investment income and short-term capital gains are considered to be distributed from ordinary income for tax purposes.
The tax characterization of distributions is determined on an annual basis. The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the year ended September 30, 2013 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2013 Distributions Paid From: | |
Fund | | Ordinary Income | | | Long-Term Capital Gains | | | Total | |
Small Cap Value Fund | | $ | 8,670,789 | | | $ | 858,547 | | | $ | 9,529,336 | |
| 30

As of September 30, 2013, the late-year ordinary and post-October capital loss deferrals were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Small Cap Growth Fund | | | Small Cap Value Fund | |
Late-year ordinary and post-October capital loss deferrals* | | $ | (6,002,400 | ) | | $ | — | |
* Under current tax law, capital losses, foreign currency losses, and losses on passive foreign investment companies and contingent payment debt instruments after October 31 or December 31, as applicable, may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following taxable year.
f. Repurchase Agreements. Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement, under which each Fund acquires securities as collateral and agrees to resell the securities at an agreed upon time and at an agreed upon price. It is each Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty, including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities. As of March 31, 2014, each Fund had investments in repurchase agreements for which the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement. The gross value of repurchase agreements is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes.
g. Securities Lending. The Funds have entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Funds, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at least 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. Government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. Governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Funds invest cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Funds and State Street Bank as lending agent.
For the six months ended March 31, 2014, neither Fund had loaned securities under this agreement.

h. Indemnifications. Under the Trusts’ organizational documents, their officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general 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, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
3. Fair Value Measurements. In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Funds have categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of each Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| • | | Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| • | | Level 2—prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and |
| • | | Level 3—prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available). |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of March 31, 2014, at value:

processing, shareholder communications and other services to customers of the intermediaries that hold positions in the Funds and has agreed to compensate the intermediaries for providing those services. Intermediaries transact with the Funds primarily through the use of omnibus accounts on behalf of their customers who hold positions in the Funds. These services would have been provided by the Funds’ transfer agent and other service providers if the shareholders’ accounts were maintained directly at the Funds’ transfer agent. Accordingly, the Funds have agreed to reimburse NGAM Distribution for all or a portion of the servicing fees paid to these intermediaries. The reimbursement amounts (sub-transfer agent fees) paid to NGAM Distribution are subject to a current per-account equivalent fee limit approved by the Funds’ Board, which is based on fees for similar services paid to the Funds’ transfer agent and other service providers. Class N shares do not bear such expenses.
For the six months ended March 31, 2014, the sub-transfer agent fees (which are reflected in transfer agent fees and expenses in the Statements of Operations) for each Fund were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Sub-Transfer Agent Fees | |
Fund | | Institutional Class | | | Retail Class | | | Admin Class | |

Small Cap Value Fund | | | 7,153 | | | | 6,176 | | | | 1,843 | |
e. Trustees Fees and Expenses. The Trusts do not pay any compensation directly to their officers or Trustees who are directors, officers or employees of NGAM Advisors, NGAM Distribution, Natixis US or their affiliates. Effective January 1, 2014, the Chairperson of the Board receives a retainer fee at the annual rate of $300,000.

meeting that he or she attends telephonically. Each Audit Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. These fees are allocated among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series based on a formula that takes into account, among other factors, the relative net assets of each Fund. Trustees are reimbursed for travel expenses in connection with attendance at meetings.
Prior to January 1, 2014, the Chairperson of the Board received a retainer fee at the annual rate of $285,000 and each Independent Trustee (other than the Chairperson) received, in the aggregate, a retainer fee at the annual rate of $115,000. All other Trustee fees remained unchanged.
A deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) is available to the Trustees on a voluntary basis. Deferred amounts remain in the Funds until distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. The value of a participating Trustee’s deferral account is based on theoretical investments of deferred amounts, on the normal payment dates, in certain funds of the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series as designated by the participating Trustees. Changes in the value of participants’ deferral accounts are allocated pro rata among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts, and Hansberger International Series, and are normally reflected as Trustees’ fees and expenses in the Statements of Operations. The portions of the accrued obligations allocated to the Funds under the Plan are reflected as Deferred Trustees’ fees in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The table(s) do not reflect taxes shareholders might owe on any fund distributions or when they redeem their shares. Performance for periods less than one year is cumulative, not annualized. Returns reflect changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any. Unlike a fund, an index is not managed and does not reflect fees and expenses.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Index Definitions
Indexes are unmanaged and do not have expenses that affect results, unlike mutual funds. Index returns are adjusted for the reinvestment of capital gain distributions and income dividends. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
Barclays U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index is an unmanaged index that includes U.S. Treasuries, government-related issues, and investment grade U.S. corporate securities.
Proxy Voting Information

Information about how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the 12-month period ended June 30, 2013 is available on (i) the Fund’s website and (ii) the SEC’s website.
Quarterly Portfolio Schedules

The Fund’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 800-SEC-0330.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
As a mutual fund shareholder you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service fees (12b-1 fees), and other fund expenses. Certain exemptions may apply. These costs are described in more detail in the Fund’s prospectus. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and help you compare these with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The first line in the table for each class of Fund shares shows the actual amount of Fund expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in the fund from October 1, 2013 through March 31, 2014. To estimate the expenses you paid over the period, simply divide
| 2
your account value by $1,000 (for example $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6) and multiply the result by the number in the Expenses Paid During Period column as shown below for your class.
The second line in the table for each class of Fund shares provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid on your investment for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund to 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 reflect ongoing costs only, and do not include any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included, total costs would be higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
1. Organization. Loomis Sayles Funds I (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) as an open-end management investment company. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of the Trust in multiple series. The financial statements for certain funds of the Trust are presented in separate reports. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to Loomis Sayles Bond Fund (the “Fund”).
The Fund is a diversified investment company.
The Fund offers Institutional Class, Retail Class, Admin Class and Class N shares.
Most expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a fund are generally apportioned based on the relative net assets of each of the funds in the Trust. Expenses of the Fund are borne pro rata by the holders of each class of shares, except that each class bears expenses unique to that class (including the Rule 12b-1 service and distribution fees and transfer agent fees). In addition, each class votes as a class only with respect to its own Rule 12b-1 Plan. Shares of each class would receive their pro rata share of the net assets of the Fund if the Fund were liquidated. The Trustees approve separate distributions from net investment income on each class of shares.
2. Significant Accounting Policies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The Fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to period-end through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no material events that would require disclosure in the Fund’s financial statements.
a. Valuation. Fund securities and other investments are valued at market value based on market quotations obtained or determined by independent pricing services recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, as described below. Market value is determined as follows:
Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) and unlisted equity securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service, using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities, if available, or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers. Senior loans are valued at bid prices supplied by an independent pricing service, if available. Equity securities (including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) are valued at the last sale price

Notes to Financial Statements – continued
March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
quoted on the exchange or market where traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking an NOCP, at the most recent bid quotations on the applicable NASDAQ Market. In some foreign markets, an official close price and a last sale price may be available from the foreign exchange or market. In those cases, the official close price is used. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to value debt and equity securities and senior loans where an independent pricing service is unable to price a security or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. Short-term obligations (purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value).
Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Fund may also value securities and other investments at fair value in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market but prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing its securities or other investments, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities or other market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the time the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security, and fair values used to determine a Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same securities. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities held by the Fund.
b. Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one day basis for daily net asset value calculation. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Dividend income is recorded on ex-dividend date, or in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is notified, and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Interest income is increased by the accretion of discount and decreased by the amortization of premium. Distributions received from investments in securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments or as a realized gain, respectively. In determining net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities has been determined on an identified cost basis. Investment income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund.

c. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions.
Since the values of investment securities are presented at the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period, it is not practical to isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in exchange rates from fluctuations which arise due to changes in market prices of investment securities. Such changes are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currency, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investment securities, at the end of the fiscal period, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
The Fund may use foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts’ terms.
d. Federal and Foreign Income Taxes. The Fund intends to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains at least annually. Management has performed an analysis of the Fund’s tax positions for the open tax years as of March 31, 2014 and has concluded that no provisions for income tax are required. The Fund’s federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably possible to occur in the next six months that would result in the amounts of any unrecognized tax benefits significantly increasing or decreasing for the Fund. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws and accounting regulations and interpretations thereof.
The Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on investment income and taxes on capital gains on investments that are accrued and paid based upon the Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the countries in which the Fund invests. Foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income are reflected on the Statement of Operations as a reduction of investment income, net of amounts eligible to be reclaimed. Dividends and interest receivable on the Statement of Assets and

Liabilities are net of foreign withholding taxes. Foreign withholding taxes eligible to be reclaimed are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as tax reclaims receivable. Capital gains taxes paid are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Accrued but unpaid capital gains taxes are reflected as foreign taxes payable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable, and reduce unrealized gains on investments. In the event that realized gains on investments are subsequently offset by realized losses, taxes paid on realized gains may be returned to the Fund. Such amounts, if applicable, are reflected as foreign tax rebates receivable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are recorded as a realized gain when received.
e. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date. The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Permanent differences are primarily due to differing treatments for book and tax purposes of items such as foreign currency transactions, contingent payment debt instruments, premium amortization, defaulted bond adjustments, paydown gains and losses, return of capital and capital gain distributions received and trust preferred securities adjustments. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to capital accounts. Temporary differences between book and tax distributable earnings are primarily due to deferred Trustees’ fees, wash sales, premium amortization, foreign currency contract mark to market, defaulted bond interest, return of capital distributions received, trust preferred securities adjustments and contingent payment debt instruments. Distributions from net investment income and short-term capital gains are considered to be distributed from ordinary income for tax purposes.
The tax characterization of distributions is determined on an annual basis. The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the year ended September 30, 2013 was as follows:
| | | | | | |
2013 Distributions Paid From: | |
Ordinary Income | | Long-Term Capital Gains | | Total | |

f. Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement, under which the Fund acquires securities as collateral and agrees to resell the securities at an agreed upon time and at an agreed upon price. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities. As of March 31, 2014, the Fund had investments in

repurchase agreements for which the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement. The gross value of repurchase agreements is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes.
g. Securities Lending. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at least 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. Government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. Governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent.
For the six months ended March 31, 2014, the Fund did not loan securities under this agreement.
h. Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.
3. Fair Value Measurements. In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| • | | Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| • | | Level 2—prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and |
| • | | Level 3—prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity |

| for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available). |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2014, at value:

(a) Details of the major categories of the Fund’s investments are reflected within the Portfolio of Investments.
(b) Valued using broker-dealer bid prices.
(c) Fair valued by the Fund’s adviser.
Preferred stocks valued at $51,398,641 were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 during the period ended March 31, 2014. At March 31, 2014, these securities were valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service as a market price was not available.
All transfers are recognized as of the beginning of the reporting period.
The Fund’s pricing policies and procedures are recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Debt securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used if an independent pricing service either is unable to price a security or does not provide a reliable price for a security. Broker-dealer bid prices for which the Fund does not have knowledge of the inputs used by the broker-dealer are categorized in Level 3. All security prices, including those obtained from an independent pricing service and broker-dealer bid prices, are reviewed on a daily basis by the adviser, subject to oversight by Fund management and the Board of Trustees. If the adviser, in good faith, believes that the price provided by an independent pricing service is unreliable, broker-dealer bid prices may be used until the price provided by the independent pricing service is considered to be reliable. Reliability of all security prices, including those obtained from an independent pricing service and broker-dealer bid prices, is tested in a variety of ways, including comparison to recent transaction prices and daily fluctuations, amongst other validation procedures in place. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Fair valued securities may be categorized in Level 3.

Loomis Sayles has given a binding undertaking to the Fund to waive management fees and/or reimburse certain expenses to limit the Fund’s operating expenses, exclusive of acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage expenses, interest expense, taxes and extraordinary expenses.

These fees are subsequently paid to securities dealers or financial intermediaries for providing personal services and/or account maintenance for their customers who hold such shares.

For the six months ended March 31, 2014, the administrative fees for the Fund were $4,838,076.
d. Sub-Transfer Agent Fees. NGAM Distribution has entered into agreements, which include servicing agreements, with financial intermediaries that provide recordkeeping, processing, shareholder communications and other services to customers of the intermediaries that hold positions in the Fund and has agreed to compensate the intermediaries for providing those services. Intermediaries transact with the Fund primarily through the use of omnibus accounts on behalf of their customers who hold positions in the Fund. These services would have been provided by the Fund’s transfer agent and other service providers if the shareholders’ accounts were maintained directly at the Fund’s transfer agent. Accordingly, the Fund has agreed to reimburse NGAM Distribution for all or a portion of the servicing fees paid to these intermediaries. The reimbursement amounts (sub-transfer agent fees) paid to NGAM Distribution are subject to a current per-account equivalent fee limit approved by the Fund’s Board, which is based on fees for similar services paid to the Fund’s transfer agent and other service providers. Class N shares do not bear such expenses.
For the six months ended March 31, 2014, the sub-transfer agent fees (which are reflected in transfer agent fees and expenses in the Statement of Operations) for the Fund were as follows:
| | | | |
Sub-Transfer Agent Fees |
Institutional Class | | Retail Class | | Admin Class |
$3,762,591 | | $3,731,230 | | $140,048 |
As of March 31, 2014, the Fund owes NGAM Distribution the following reimbursements for sub-transfer agent fees (which are reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as payable to distributor):
| | | | |
Reimbursements of Sub-Transfer Agent Fees |
Institutional Class | | Retail Class | | Admin Class |
$93,904 | | $94,860 | | $3,485 |
e. Trustees Fees and Expenses. The Trust does not pay any compensation directly to its officers or Trustees who are directors, officers or employees of NGAM Advisors, NGAM Distribution, Natixis US or their affiliates. Effective January 1, 2014, the Chairperson of the Board receives a retainer fee at the annual rate of $300,000. The Chairperson does not receive any meeting attendance fees for Board of Trustees meetings or committee meetings that she attends. Each Independent Trustee (other than the Chairperson) receives, in the aggregate, a retainer fee at the annual rate of $130,000. Each Independent Trustee also receives a meeting attendance fee of $10,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends in person and $5,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends telephonically. In addition, each committee chairperson (except for the
| 46
Notes to Financial Statements – continued
March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
Chairperson of the Governance Committee) receives an additional retainer fee at the annual rate of $17,500. Each Contract Review Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. Each Audit Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. These fees are allocated among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series based on a formula that takes into account, among other factors, the relative net assets of each Fund. Trustees are reimbursed for travel expenses in connection with attendance at meetings.
Prior to January 1, 2014, the Chairperson of the Board received a retainer fee at the annual rate of $285,000 and each Independent Trustee (other than the Chairperson) received, in the aggregate, a retainer fee at the annual rate of $115,000. All other Trustees fees remained unchanged.
A deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) is available to the Trustees on a voluntary basis. Deferred amounts remain in the Fund until distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. The value of a participating Trustee’s deferral account is based on theoretical investments of deferred amounts, on the normal payment dates, in certain funds of the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Hansberger International Series as designated by the participating Trustees. Changes in the value of participants’ deferral accounts are allocated pro rata among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts, and Hansberger International Series, and are normally reflected as Trustees’ fees and expenses in the Statement of Operations. The portions of the accrued obligations allocated to the Fund under the Plan are reflected as Deferred Trustees’ fees in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
