Notes to Portfolios of Investments
June 30, 2013 (Unaudited)

 

Security valuation and fair value measurements— All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value. The Funds define the term “market value”, as used throughout this report, as the estimated fair value. The Funds use various methods to measure fair value of their portfolio securities on a recurring basis. Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) establish a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

•  Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

 

•  Level 2 –  other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

•  Level 3   significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market instruments are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940 . Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

 

The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2013, for each Fund’s investments, as well as a reconciliation of assets for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value, if applicable, is included in each Fund’s Portfolio of Investments, which also includes a breakdown of the Fund’s investments by geographic or sector allocation.

 

All transfers in and out of the levels are recognized at the value at the end of the period. During the period ended June 30, 2013, there were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 for all Funds.

 

The Funds’ portfolio securities are valued as of the close of the regular session of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (currently 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). Portfolio securities traded on stock exchanges are valued at the last sale price, and to the extent these securities are actively traded, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Portfolio securities quoted by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). Securities not traded on a particular day, or for which the last sale price is not readily available, are valued at their last broker-quoted bid prices as obtained from one or more of the major market makers for such securities by an independent pricing service and are categorized in Level 2. Debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at their most recent bid prices as obtained from one or more of the major market makers for such securities by an independent pricing service and are categorized in Level 2. Money market instruments and other debt securities with a remaining maturity of less than 60 days are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value and are categorized in Level 2. While this method provides consistency in valuation (and may only be used if it approximates market value), it may result in periods during which value, as determined by amortized cost, is higher or lower than the price that would be received if the Fund sold the investment. Securities for which market quotations or the NOCP are not readily available are fair valued as determined by or under the direction of the Board ofTrustees and are categorized in Level 3. Shares of open-end mutual funds in which the Funds invest are valued at their respective net asset values (“NAV”) as reported by the underlying funds and are categorized in Level 1. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and translated to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates.

 

Level 2 Valuation— Securities mainly traded on a non-U.S. exchange are generally valued according to the preceding closing values on that exchange. However, if an event that may change the value of a security occurs after the time that the closing value on the non-U.S. exchange was determined, but before the close of regular trading on the NYSE, the security may be priced based on fair value. This may cause the value of the security on the books of the Funds to be significantly different from the closing value on the non-U.S. exchange and

may affect the calculation of the NAV of the Funds. Any debt securities held by the Funds for which market quotations are not readily available are generally priced at their most recent bid prices as obtained from one or more of the major market makers for such securities.

 

Level 3 Valuation— Securities held by the Funds that do not have readily available market quotations, or securities for which the available market quotations are not reliable, are priced at their fair value using procedures approved by the Funds’ Board ofTrustees. The Funds may use fair value pricing under the following circumstances, among others:

 

•   If the value of a security has been materially affected by events occurring before the Funds’ pricing time but after the close of the primary markets on which the security is traded.

 

•   If the exchange on which a portfolio security is principally traded closes early or if trading in a particular portfolio security was halted during the day and did not resume prior to the Funds’ NAV calculation.

 

If a security is so thinly traded that reliable market quotations are unavailable due to infrequent trading.

 

If the validity of market quotations is not reliable.

 

Certain Funds may invest in securities of other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), open-end funds and closed-end funds. Open-end funds are investment companies that issue new shares continuously and redeem shares daily. Closed-end funds are investment companies that typically issue a fixed number of shares that trade on a securities exchange or over-the-counter. An ETF is an investment company that seeks to track the performance of an index by holding in its portfolio shares of all the companies, or a representative sample of the companies, that are components of a particular index. ETFs are traded on a securities exchange based on their market value. The risks of investment in other investment companies typically reflect the risks of the types of securities in which investment companies invest. Investments in ETFs and closed-end funds are subject to the additional risk that shares of the fund may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV. When a Fund invests in another investment company, shareholders of the Fund bear their proportionate share of the other investment company’s fees and expenses, including operating, registration, trustee, licensing and marketing, as well as their share of the Fund’s fees and expenses.

 

Options— The Funds may write or purchase financial option contracts primarily to hedge against changes in the value of equity securities (or securities that the Funds intend to purchase), against fluctuations in fair value caused by changes in prevailing market interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates and against changes in overall equity market volatility. In addition, the Funds may utilize options in an attempt to generate gains from option premiums or to reduce overall portfolio risk. The Funds’ option strategy primarily focuses on the use of writing call options on equity indexes. When the Funds write or purchase an option, an amount equal to the premium received or paid by the Funds is recorded as a liability or an asset and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written or purchased. Premiums received or paid from writing or purchasing options which expire unexercised are treated by the Funds on the expiration date as realized gains or losses. The difference between the premium and the amount paid or received on effecting a closing purchase or sale transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain or loss. If an option is exercised, the premium paid or received is added to the cost of the purchase or proceeds from the sale in determining whether the Funds have realized a gain or loss on investment transactions. The Funds, as writers of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bear the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. The Funds, as purchasers of an option, bear the risk that the counterparties to the option may not have the ability to meet the terms of the option contracts. There is minimal counterparty credit risk involved in entering into option contracts since they are exchange-traded instruments and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange-traded options, guarantees the options against default. Options are valued at the last quoted

sales price. If there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, long option positions are valued at the most recent bid price, and short option positions are valued at the most recent ask price. As of June 30, 2013, the Funds had no written options.

 

Futures Contracts— A Fund may buy and sell futures contracts and related options to manage its exposure to changing interest rates and securities prices. Some strategies reduce a Fund’s exposure to price fluctuations, while others tend to increase its market exposure. Futures and options on futures can be volatile instruments and involve certain risks that could negatively impact a Fund’s return. In order to avoid leveraging and related risks, when a Fund purchases futures contracts, it will collateralize its position by depositing an amount of cash or liquid securities, equal to the market value of the futures positions held, less margin deposits, in a segregated account with its custodian or otherwise “cover” its position in a manner consistent with the 1940 Act or the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) interpretations thereunder. Collateral equal to the current market value of the futures position will be marked to market on a daily basis.

 

When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of ) the closing transactions and the Fund’s basis in the contract. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying instruments. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market resulting in an inability to close a futures position prior to its maturity date. Third, the purchase of a futures contract involves the risk that the funds could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate the futures transaction. Finally, the risk exists that losses could exceed amounts disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. There is minimal counterparty credit risk involved in entering into futures contracts since they are exchange-traded instruments and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures, guarantees the futures against default. As of June 30, 2013, the Flexible Income Fund held future contracts as shown on the Portfolio of Investments and had cash in the amount of $1,390,780 held as collateral for future contracts.

 

Swap Contracts— The Funds may enter into swap transactions, which are financial instruments that typically involve the exchange of cash flows between two parties on specified dates (settlement dates), where the cash flows are based on agreed-upon prices, rates, indexes, etc. The nominal amount on which the cash flows are calculated is called the notional amount. Swaps are individually negotiated and structured to include exposure to a variety of different types of investments or market factors, such as interest rates, foreign currency rates, mortgage securities, corporate borrowing rates, security prices, indexes or inflation rates.

 

Swap agreements may increase or decrease the overall volatility of the investments of a Fund and its share price. The performance of swap agreements may be affected by a change in the specific interest rate, currency, or other factors that determine the amounts of payments due to and from a Fund. If a swap agreement calls for payments by a Fund, the Fund must be prepared to make such payments when due. In addition, if the counterparty’s creditworthiness declines, the value of a swap agreement would be likely to decline, potentially resulting in losses.

 

Generally, swap agreements have a fixed maturity date that will be agreed upon by the parties. The agreement can be terminated before the maturity date only under limited circumstances, such as default by one of the parties or insolvency, among others, and can be transferred by a party only with the prior written consent of the other party. A Fund may be able to eliminate its exposure under a swap agreement either by assignment or by other disposition, or by entering into an offsetting swap agreement with the same party or a similarly creditworthy party. If the counter-party is unable to meet its obligations under the contract, declares bankruptcy, defaults or becomes insolvent, a Fund may not be able to recover the money it expected to receive under the contract.

Notes to Portfolios of Investments (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

A swap agreement can be a form of leverage, which can magnify a Fund’s gains or losses. In order to reduce the risk associated with leveraging, a Fund may cover its current obligations under swap agreements according to guidelines established by the SEC. If a Fund enters into a swap agreement on a net basis, it will segregate assets with a daily value at least equal to the excess, if any, of the Fund’s accrued obligations under the swap agreement over the accrued amount the Fund is entitled to receive under the agreement. If a Fund enters into a swap agreement on other than a net basis, it will segregate assets with a value equal to the full amount of the Fund’s accrued obligations under the agreement.

 

Swaps other than security-based swaps are included in the definition of “commodity interests” under the Commodity Exchange Act (the “CEA”). Under recent amendments to Rule 4.5 under the CEA, a Fund may be considered a commodity pool if it trades more than a de minimis amount of commodity interests (including swaps). Under such circumstances, the Fund and its investment advisor may be subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). None of theTouchstone Funds intends to trade above the de minimis limitation, and the Flexible Income Fund’s investment advisor has claimed an exemption from registering with the CFTC.

 

A credit default swap is an agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that enables the Fund to buy or sell protection against a credit event related to a referenced debt obligation. One party, acting as a “protection buyer,” makes periodic payments to the other party, a “protection seller,” in exchange for a promise by the protection seller to make a payment to the protection buyer if a negative credit event (such as a delinquent payment or default) occurs with respect to a referenced bond or group of bonds.

 

As the protection buyer in a credit default swap, a Fund may pay a premium (by means of periodic payments) in return for the right to deliver specified bonds or loans to the protection seller and receive the par (or other agreed-upon) value upon default or similar events by the issuer of the underlying reference obligation. If no default occurs, the protection seller would keep the stream of payments and would have no further obligations to the Fund. As the protection buyer, the Fund bears the risk that the investment might expire worthless and/or that the protection seller may fail to satisfy its payment obligations to the Fund in the event of a default or similar event. In addition, when the Fund is a protection buyer, the Fund’s investment would only generate income in the event of an actual default or similar event by the issuer of the underlying reference obligation.

 

A Fund may also use credit default swaps for investment purposes by selling a credit default swap, in which case, the Fund, as the protection seller, would be required to pay the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation to the protection buyer in the event of a default or similar event by the third-party issuer of the underlying reference obligation. In return for its obligation, the Fund would receive from the protection buyer a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract. If no credit event occurs, the Fund would keep the stream of payments and would have no payment obligations. As the protection seller in a credit default swap, the Fund effectively adds economic leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Fund is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. Consistent with SEC staff guidance, if a Fund sells a credit default swap it will segregate assets equal to the full notional amount of the swap in order to cover its obligations under the instrument.

 

In addition to the risks applicable to derivatives generally, credit default swaps involve special risks because they may be difficult to value, are highly susceptible to liquidity and credit risk, and generally pay a return to the party that has paid the premium only in the event of an actual default by the issuer of the underlying obligation (as opposed to a credit downgrade or other indication of financial difficulty).

 

As of June 30, 2013, the Funds did not hold any swap contracts.

Foreign currency translation— The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars and translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

 

(1) market value of investment securities, assets and liabilities at the current rate of exchange on the valuation date; and

 

(2) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

 

The Funds do not isolate that portion of gains and losses on investments in equity securities that is due to changes in the foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of equity securities.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts— A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a specific currency at a price that is set on the date of the contract. The forward contract calls for delivery of the currency on a future date that is specified in the contract. Risks related to the use of forwards include the possible failure of counterparties to meet the terms of the forward agreement, the failure of the counterparties to timely post collateral, the risk that currency movements will not occur thereby reducing the Fund’s total return, and the potential for losses in excess of the Fund’s initial investment.

 

The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by a Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses, 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, are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency.

 

During the period ended June 30, 2013, the Fund used forward foreign currency contracts to enhance potential gains, hedge against anticipated currency exchange rates, maintain diversity and liquidity of the portfolio and adjust exposure to foreign currencies.

 

Portfolio securities loaned— Each Fund may lend its portfolio securities. Lending portfolio securities exposes a Fund to the risk that the borrower may fail to return the loaned securities or may not be able to provide additional collateral or that the Fund may experience delays in recovery of the loaned securities or loss of rights in the collateral if the borrower fails financially. To minimize these risks, the borrower must agree to maintain cash collateral with the Funds’ custodian in an amount at least equal to the market value of the loaned securities. The loaned securities are secured by collateral valued at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest, if any. When the collateral falls below specified amounts, the lending agent will use its best effort to obtain additional collateral on the next business day to meet required amounts under the security lending agreement. The cash collateral is reinvested by the Funds’custodian into an approved investment vehicle.

 

As of June 30, 2013, the following Funds loaned securities and received collateral as follows:

 

    Market Value of     Market Value of  
    Securities     Collateral  
Fund   Loaned     Received  
Diversified Small Cap Growth Fund   $ 1,435,999     $ 1,446,478

Small Company Value Fund     2,909,325       2,966,023  
Flexible Income Fund     5,307,131       5,410,575

All collateral received as cash is received, held and administered by the Funds’ custodian for the benefit of the Funds in the applicable custody account or other account established for the purpose of holding collateral.

 

Funds participating in securities lending receive compensation in the form of fees, or retain a portion of interest or dividends on the investment of any cash received as collateral. The Funds also continue to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned.

 

Unrealized gain or loss on the market value of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan is recognized by the Funds. The Funds have the right under the lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand.

 

Security transactions— Security transactions are reflected for financial reporting purposes as of the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of portfolio securities are calculated using the identified cost basis.

 

Federal Tax Information— As of June 30, 2013, the Funds had the following federal tax cost resulting in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as follows:

 

                      Net  
          Gross     Gross     Unrealized
