1. Significant Accounting
Policies
The following accounting policies
are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and are
consistently followed by Delaware Enhanced Global Dividend and Income Fund
(Fund).
Security Valuation Equity securities, except those traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (Nasdaq), are valued at the last quoted sales price as of the time of the regular close of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on the valuation date. Securities traded on the Nasdaq are valued in accordance with the Nasdaq Official Closing Price, which may not be the last sales price. If on a particular day an equity security does not trade, then the mean between the bid and asked prices will be used. Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued at the last quoted sales price on the valuation date. U.S. government and agency securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices. Other long-term debt securities, credit default swap (CDS) contracts and interest rate swap contracts are valued by an independent pricing service or broker. To the extent current market prices are not available, the pricing service may take into account developments related to the specific security, as well as transactions in comparable securities. Short-term debt securities having less than 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities lending collateral, which is invested in collective investment vehicle (Collective Trust), is valued at unit value per share. Foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign cross currency exchange contracts are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices. Interpolated values are derived when the settlement date of the contract is an interim date for which quotations are not available. Financial futures contracts and options on financial futures contracts are valued at the daily quoted settlement prices. Exchange-traded options are valued at the last reported sale price or, if no sales are reported, at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices. Generally, index swap contracts and other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Funds Board of Trustees (Board). In determining whether market quotations are readily available or fair valuation will be used, various factors will be taken into consideration, such as market closures, or with respect to foreign securities, aftermarket trading or significant events after local market trading (e.g., government actions or pronouncements, trading volume or volatility on markets, exchanges among dealers, or news events).
Federal Income Taxes The Fund intends to continue to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and make the requisite distributions to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the financial statements.
Repurchase Agreements The Fund may invest in a pooled cash account along with members of the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The aggregate daily balance of the pooled cash account is invested in repurchase agreements secured by obligations of the U.S. government. The respective collateral is held by the Funds custodian bank until the maturity of the respective repurchase agreements. Each repurchase agreement is at least 102% collateralized. However, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty to the agreement, realization of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
Distributions The Fund has a managed distribution policy. Under the policy, the Fund declares and pays monthly distributions and is managed with a goal of generating as much of the distribution as possible from ordinary income (net investment income and short-term capital gains). The balance of the distribution then comes from long-term capital gains to the extent permitted and, if necessary, a return of capital. The current annualized rate is $1.704 per share ($0.142 monthly). The Fund continues to evaluate its monthly distribution in light of ongoing economic and market conditions and may change the amount of the monthly distributions in the future.
Foreign Currency Transactions Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the prevailing exchange rates on the valuation date. The value of all assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies is translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar daily. Transaction gains or losses resulting from changes in exchange rates during the reporting period or upon settlement of the foreign currency transaction are reported in operations for the current period. The Fund isolates that portion of realized gains and losses on investments in debt securities which is due to changes in foreign exchange rates from that which are due to changes in market prices of debt securities. For foreign equity securities, these changes are included in realized gains (losses) on investments. The Fund certain foreign currency related transactions as components of realized gains (losses) for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income (loss) for federal income tax purposes.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Other - Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged directly to the Fund. Other expenses common to various funds within the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds are generally allocated amongst such funds on the basis of average net assets. Management fees and some other expenses are paid monthly. Security transactions are recorded on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date) for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in calculating realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on non-convertible securities are amortized to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Realized gains (losses) on paydowns of mortgage- and asset-backed securities are classified as interest income. Foreign dividends are also recorded on the ex-dividend date or as soon after the ex-dividend date that the Fund is aware of such dividends, net of all non-rebatable tax withholdings. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been recorded in accordance with the Funds understanding of the applicable countrys tax rules and rates. Distributions received from investments in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are recorded as dividend income on ex-dividend date as an estimate, subject to reclassification upon notice of the character of such distributions by the issuer.
2. Investments
At August 31, 2008, the cost of investments for federal income
tax purposes has been estimated since the final tax characteristics cannot be
determined until fiscal year end. At August 31, 2008, the cost of investments
and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for the Fund was as
follows:
Cost of investments | $ | 287,227,651 | |
Aggregate unrealized appreciation | 1,856,976 | ||
Aggregate unrealized depreciation | (37,337,451 | ) | |
Net unrealized depreciation | $ | (35,480,475 | ) |
For federal income tax purposes, at November 30, 2007, capital loss carryforwards of $1,723,170 may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. Such capital loss carryforwards expire in 2015.
Effective December 1, 2007, the Fund adopted Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 defines fair value as the price that the Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FAS 157 also establishes a framework for measuring fair value and a three level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entitys own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available under the circumstances. The Funds investment in its entirety is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in
active markets
Level 2 inputs that are observable, directly or
indirectly
Level 3 inputs are unobservable
and reflect assumptions on the part of the reporting entity
The following table summarizes the valuation of the Funds investments by the above FAS 157 fair value hierarchy levels as of August 31, 2008:
Level | Securities | Derivatives | |||||
Level 1 | $ | 105,034,726 | $ | - | |||
Level 2 | 138,722,168 | 132,567 | |||||
Level 3 | 7,990,282 | - | |||||
Total | $ | 251,747,176 | $ | 132,566 |
The following is a reconciliation of investments in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value:

3. Line of
Credit
On July 2, 2008, the Fund entered
into a Credit Agreement with the Bank of New York Mellon (BNY Mellon) for
$50,000,000 that expires on July 1, 2009. The Credit Agreement, which was
approved by the Funds Board on May 22, 2008, permits the Fund to borrow at: (1)
certain London Interbank Offered Rates plus 0.70%; or (2) the greater of (a)
certain Fed Funds Rates plus 0.50% or (b) BNY Mellons prime commercial lending
rate as publicly announced from time to time.
On July 22, 2008, the Fund began borrowing under the Credit Agreement. At August 31, 2008, the par value of loans outstanding was $50,000,000 at the 1 month LIBOR rate of 2.472% plus 0.70%. During the period July 22, 2008 to August 31, 2008, the average daily balance of loans outstanding was $50,000,000 at a weighted average 1 month LIBOR rate of approximately 2.464% plus 0.70%. The maximum amount of loans outstanding at any time during the period was $50,000,000. Interest on borrowings is based on market rates in effect at the time of borrowing. The commitment fee is computed at a rate of 0.10% per annum on the unused balance. The loan is collateralized by the Funds portfolio.
4. Foreign Currency Exchange
Contracts
The Fund may enter into foreign
currency exchange contracts and foreign cross currency exchange contracts as a
way of managing foreign exchange rate risk. The Fund may enter into these
contracts to fix the U.S. dollar value of a security that it has agreed to buy
or sell for the period between the date the trade was entered into and the date
the security is delivered and paid for. The Fund may also use these contracts to
hedge the U.S. dollar value of securities it already owns that are denominated
in foreign currencies. The change in value is recorded as an unrealized gain or
loss. When the contract is closed, a realized gain or loss is recorded 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.
The use of foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign cross currency exchange contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the securities, but does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although foreign currency exchange contracts limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged currency, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the value of the currency increase. In addition, the Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts.
5. Financial Futures
Contracts
The Fund may invest in financial
futures contracts to hedge its existing portfolio securities against
fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing market interest rates.
Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund deposits cash or
pledges U.S. government securities to a broker, equal to the minimum initial
margin requirements of the exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent
payments are received from the broker or paid to the broker each day, based on
the daily fluctuation in the market value of the contract. These receipts or
payments are known as variation margin and are recorded daily by the Fund as
unrealized gains or losses until the contracts are closed. When the contracts
are closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss 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. Risks of entering into financial futures contracts include
potential imperfect correlation between the financial futures contracts and the
underlying securities and the possibility of an illiquid secondary market for
these instruments.
6. Written
Options
During the period ended August 31,
2008, the Fund entered into options contracts in accordance with its investment
objectives. When the Fund writes an option, a premium is received and a
liability is recorded and adjusted on a daily basis to reflect the current
market value of the options written. Premiums received from writing options that
expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized
gains. The difference between the premium received and the amount paid on
effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is
treated as realized gain or loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is
added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining
whether the Fund has a realized gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the
premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Fund. The
Fund, as writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in
the price of the security underlying the written option.
Transactions in written options during the period ended August 31, 2008 for the Fund were as follows:
Number of contracts | Premiums | ||||||
Options outstanding at November 30, 2007 | 100 | $ | 34,699 | ||||
Options written | 5,319 | 273,804 | |||||
Options exercised | (771 | ) | (12,416 | ) | |||
Options expired | (1,793 | ) | (13,042 | ) | |||
Options terminated in closing purchase transactions | (1,550 | ) | (196,420 | ) | |||
Options outstanding at August 31, 2008 | 1,305 | $ | 133,725 |
7. Swap
Contracts
The Fund may enter into interest
rate swap contracts, index swap contracts and CDS contracts in accordance with
its investment objectives. The Fund may use interest rate swaps to adjust the
Funds sensitivity to interest rates or to hedge against changes in interest
rates. Index swaps may be used to gain exposure to markets that the Fund invests
in, such as the corporate bond market. The Fund may also use index swaps as a
substitute for future or options contracts if such contracts are not directly
available to the Fund on favorable terms. The Fund may enter into CDS contracts
in order to hedge against a credit event, to enhance total return or to gain
exposure to certain securities or markets.
An interest rate swap involves payments received by the Fund from another party based on a variable or floating interest rate, in return for making payments based on a fixed interest rate. An interest rate swap can also work in reverse with the Fund receiving payments based on a fixed interest rate and making payments based on a variable or floating interest rate. Interest rate swaps may be used to adjust the Funds sensitivity to interest rates or to hedge against changes in interest rates. Periodic payments on such contracts are accrued daily and recorded as unrealized appreciation/depreciation on swap contracts. Upon periodic payment/receipt or termination of the contract, such amounts are recorded as realized gains or losses on swap contracts.
Index swaps involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return based on a notional amount. To the extent the total return of the security, instrument or basket of instruments underlying the transaction exceeds the offsetting interest obligation, the Fund will receive a payment from the counterparty. To the extent the total return of the security, instrument or basket of instruments underlying the transaction falls short of the offsetting interest obligation, the Fund will make a payment to the counterparty. The change in value of swap contracts outstanding, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation daily. A realized gain or loss is recorded on maturity or termination of the swap contract.
A CDS contract is a risk-transfer instrument through which one party (purchaser of protection) transfers to another party (seller of protection) the financial risk of a credit event, as it relates to a particular reference security or basket of securities (such as an index). In exchange for the protection offered by the seller of protection, the purchaser of protection agrees to pay the seller of protection a periodic amount at a stated rate that is applied to the notional amount of the CDS contract. In addition, an upfront payment may be made or received by the Fund in connection with an unwinding or assignment of a CDS contract. Upon the occurrence of a credit event, the seller of protection would pay the par (or other agreed-upon) value of the referenced security (or basket of securities) to the counterparty.
During the period ended August 31, 2008, the Fund entered into CDS contracts as a purchaser and seller of protection. Periodic payments (receipts) on such contracts are accrued daily and recorded as unrealized losses (gains) on swap contracts. Upon payment (receipt), such amounts are recorded as realized losses (gains) on swap contracts. Upfront payments made or received in connection with CDS contracts are amortized over the expected life of the CDS contracts as unrealized losses (gains) on swap contracts. The change in value of CDS contracts is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation daily. A realized gain or loss is recorded upon a credit event (as defined in the CDS agreement) or the maturity or termination of the agreement.
Credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if the Fund had invested in the referenced obligation directly. Credit default swaps are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and credit risk. If the Fund enters into a CDS contract as a purchaser of protection and no credit event occurs, its exposure is limited to the periodic payments previously made to the counterparty.
Because there is no organized market for swap contracts, the value of open swaps may differ from that which would be realized in the event the Fund terminated its position in the agreement. Risks of entering into these agreements include the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contracts. This type of risk is generally limited to the amount of favorable movements in the value of the underlying security, instrument, or basket of instruments, if any, at the day of default. Risks also arise from potential losses from adverse market movements and such losses could exceed the unrealized amounts shown on the schedule of investments.
8. Securities
Lending
The Fund, along with other funds
in the Delaware Investments® Family of
Funds, may lend its securities pursuant to a security lending agreement (Lending
Agreement) with BNY Mellon. With respect to each loan, if the aggregate market
value of the collateral held on any business day is less than the aggregate
market value of the securities which are the subject of such loan, the borrower
will be notified to provide additional collateral not less than the applicable
collateral requirements. Cash collateral received is invested in a Collective
Trust established by BNY Mellon for the purpose of investment on behalf of
clients participating in its securities lending programs. The Collective Trust
invests in fixed income securities, with a weighted average maturity not to
exceed 90 days, rated in one of the top three tiers by Standard & Poor's
Ratings Group (S&P) or Moodys Investors Service, Inc. (Moodys) or
repurchase agreements collateralized by such securities. The Fund can also
accept U.S. government securities and letters of credit (non-cash collateral) in
connection with securities loans. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the
lending agent, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to
legal proceedings. In the event the borrower fails to return loaned securities
and the collateral received is insufficient to cover the value of the loaned
securities and provided such collateral shortfall is not the result of
investment losses, the lending agent has agreed to pay the amount of the
shortfall to the Fund, or at the discretion of the lending agent, replace the
loaned securities. The Fund continues to record dividends or interest, as
applicable, on the securities loaned and is subject to change in value of the
securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan. The Fund has the
right under the Lending Agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on
demand. With respect to security loans collateralized by non-cash collateral,
the Fund receives loan premiums paid by the borrower. With respect to security
loans collateralized by cash collateral, the earnings from the collateral
investments are shared among the Fund, the security lending agent and the
borrower. The Fund records security lending income net of allocations to the
security lending agent and the borrower.
At August 31, 2008, the value of securities on loan was $21,947,428, for which the Fund received collateral, comprised of non-cash collateral valued at $362,285, and cash collateral of $22,393,931. Investments purchased with cash collateral are presented on the schedule of investments under the caption Securities Lending Collateral.
9. Credit and Market
Risk
Some countries in which the Fund may
invest require governmental approval for the repatriation of investment income,
capital or the proceeds of sales of securities by foreign investors. In
addition, if there is deterioration in a countrys balance of payments or for
other reasons, a country may impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital
remittances abroad.
The securities exchanges of certain foreign markets are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than the major securities markets in the United States. Consequently, acquisition and disposition of securities by the Fund may be inhibited. In addition, a significant portion of the aggregate market value of securities listed on the major securities exchanges in emerging markets are held by a smaller number of investors. This may limit the number of shares available for acquisition or disposition by the Fund.
The Fund invests a portion of its net assets in high yield fixed income securities, which carry ratings of BB or lower by S&P and/or Ba or lower by Moodys. Investments in these higher yielding securities are generally accompanied by a greater degree of credit risk than higher rated securities. Additionally, lower rated securities may be more susceptible to adverse economic and competitive industry conditions than investment grade securities.
The Fund invests in fixed income securities whose value is derived from an underlying pool of mortgages or consumer loans. The value of these securities is sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults, and maybe adversely affected by shifts in the markets perception of the issuers and changes in interest rates. Investors receive principal and interest payments as the underlying mortgages or consumer loans are paid back. Some of these securities are collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs). CMOs are debt securities issued by U.S. government agencies or by financial institutions and other mortgage lenders, which are collateralized by a pool of mortgages held under an indenture. Prepayment of mortgages may shorten the stated maturity of the obligations and can result in a loss of premium, if any has been paid. Certain of these securities may be stripped (securities which provide only the principal or interest feature of the underlying security). The yield to maturity on an interest-only CMO is extremely sensitive not only to changes in prevailing interest rates, but also to the rate of principal payments (including prepayments) on the related underlying mortgage assets. A rapid rate of principal payments may have a material adverse affect on the Funds yield to maturity. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the Fund may fail to fully recoup its initial investment in these securities even if the securities are rated in the highest rating categories.
The Fund invests in REITs and is subject to some of the risks associated with that industry. If the Fund holds real estate directly as a result of defaults or receives rental income directly from real estate holdings, its tax status as a regulated investment company may be jeopardized. There were no direct real estate holdings during the period ended August 31, 2008. The Fund's REIT holdings are also affected by interest rate changes, particularly if the REITs it holds use floating rate debt to finance their ongoing operations.
The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in illiquid securities, which may include securities with contractual restrictions on resale, securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and other securities which may not be readily marketable. The relative illiquidity of these securities may impair the Fund from disposing of them in a timely manner and at a fair price when it is necessary or desirable to do so. While maintaining oversight, the Funds Board has delegated to Delaware Management Company, a series of Delaware Management Business Trust, the day-to-day functions of determining whether individual securities are liquid for purposes of the Funds limitation on investments in illiquid assets. Securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, which are determined to be liquid, are not subject to the Funds 10% limit on investments in illiquid securities. Rule 144A and illiquid securities have been identified on the schedule of investments.
10. Subsequent
Event
At August 31, 2008, Delaware
Enhanced Global Dividend and Income Fund had direct and indirect exposure to
investments with Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (Lehman) or Lehmans
affiliates, including bonds and derivatives for which Lehman or Lehmans
affiliates was the issuer or counterparty. On September 15, 2008, Lehman filed
for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
With respect to direct exposure to Lehman, the Fund held securities valued at approximately 0.21% of net assets as of August 31, 2008. With respect to indirect exposure, the Funds exposure through credit default swaps where Lehman or Lehmans affiliate was counterparty was approximately 0.02% of net assets (which represents the net unrealized appreciation/depreciation on the Funds books) as of August 31, 2008.
As of September 30, 2008, approximately 0.00% and 0.02% of the Funds net assets were subject to direct and indirect exposure of Lehman or Lehmans affiliate (before collateral), respectively.
