These financial statements are the responsibility of the Division’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Division’s internal control over financial reporting of the Fund. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Division’s internal control over financial reporting of the Fund. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As discussed in note 1, the financial statements present only the Fund and do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the State of New Jersey as of June 30, 2009 and 2008 and the changes in its financial position for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund managed by the Division at June 30, 2009 and 2008, and the changes in its financial position for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. 1 A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited Management’s discussion and analysis on pages 3 through 6 is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Government Accounting Standards Board. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplementary information included in schedules l through 8 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. ey January 21, 2010 2 Division of Investment Department of the Treasury State of New Jersey Pension Fund Management’s Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) June 30, 2009 and 2008 Introduction This section of the financial statements of the Pension Fund (the Fund) presents our discussion and analysis of the Fund’s financial position as of June 30, 2009 and 2008. Since this discussion and analysis is designed to focus on current activities, it should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s basic financial statements, which follow this section. Financial Statements The Fund’s basic financial statements include statements of net assets and statements of changes in net assets, which have been presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States as applicable to governmental entities. The statements of net assets provide information on the financial position of the Fund at year- end. The statements of changes in net assets present the results of the investing activities during the fiscal year. The notes to the financial statements offer additional discussion that is essential to the full understanding of the data presented in the financial statements. The notes give more detail about accounting policies, significant account balances and activities, material risks, obligations, contingencies and subsequent events, if any. The financial statements and related notes are prepared in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board principles as applicable to governmental entities. Statements of Net Assets The statements of net assets present the assets, liabilities and net assets (assets minus liabilities) of the Fund as of the end of each of the respective fiscal years and are point in time financial statements. 3 The statements of net assets are comprised of the following major components: June 30 2009 2008 2007 (Millions) Cash and Cash Management Fund $ 3,233 $ 5,665 $ 6,771 Investments, at fair value 59,354 72,537 75,411 Receivables 5,405 1,872 602 Securities lending collateral 4,789 12,794 18,413 Total assets 72,781 92,868 101,197 Total liabilities 9,858 14,312 18,712 Net assets $ 62,923 $ 78,556 $ 82,485 Receivables consist primarily of the net amounts owed to the Fund on pending investment transactions and dividends and interest receivable. Securities lending collateral represents cash invested by the Fund with cash collateral received from borrowers of securities under various securities lending programs. Liabilities include amounts owed for pending investment transactions and amounts due to borrowers under the securities lending program (i.e., the obligation of the Fund to return the collateral and pay rebates at the expiration of the securities loans). At June 30, 2009 and 2008, receivables and liabilities also include amounts related to forward currency transactions. 4 Statements of Changes in Net Assets Changes in net assets from year to year are presented in the statements of changes in net assets. The purpose of these statements is to present the net investment income earned by the Fund as well as the contributions of employers and participants and distributions to participants and/or beneficiaries. A summary follows: Year ended June 30 2009 2008 2007 (Millions) Additions: Net investment income: Interest and dividends $ 2,192 $ 2,579 $ 2,272 Net realized (loss) gain from investment transactions (3,763) 6,177 6,584 Net change in unrealized (depreciation) appreciation of investments (10,109) (10,779) 3,252 Securities lending income 166 705 839 Net investment (loss) income (11,514) (1,318) 12,947 Deductions: Administrative expenses 61 60 55 Securities lending program expenses 105 626 804 Custody fees 1 1 1 Investment expenses 28 22 10 Net pension fund withdrawals 3,923 1,902 2,684 Total deductions 4,118 2,611 3,554 (Decrease) increase in net assets (15,633) (3,929) 9,393 Net assets, beginning of year 78,556 82,485 73,092 Net assets, end of
