NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | June 30, 2015 GUARDIAN CAPITAL FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. The Funds

These notes accompany and form part of the attached financial statements of each of the Guardian Capital Funds (a “Fund”, or the “Funds”). The Funds are governed by a Master Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration of Trust”), and Guardian Capital LP (the “Manager”) is the manager and trustee of each Fund. Information regarding each Fund’s formation, and certain other supplementary information pertaining to each Fund, is contained in the Supplementary Schedules to the Notes to the Financial Statements of each Fund (“the Supplementary Schedules”) which accompany and form part of each Fund’s financial statements.

2. Significant accounting policies:

a) Basis of presentation The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), which comprises standards and interpretations approved by either the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), the IFRS Interpretations Committee or their predecessors.

The financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Funds’ functional currency, with the exception of the Guardian U.S. Equity Fund, in which the financial statements are prepared in U.S. dollars, which is such Fund’s functional currency. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and on the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments at fair value through the profit or loss, which are measured at fair value.

The financial statements have been authorized for issue by the Manager on August 28, 2015.

b) Critical accounting estimates and judgements:

The preparation of financial statements requires the Manager to use judgment in establishing and applying the Funds’ accounting policies, and to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The most significant areas where the Manager has used estimates and applied judgment are as follows:

(i) Estimates Determination of the fair value of investments which do not have quoted market prices:

Information about how the Funds determine fair value is described in Note 2(e). Information about assumptions and estimates associated with the determination of fair value of financial instruments with significant unobservable inputs that have significant risks of actual values being materially different are included in Note 9.

(ii) Judgements Designation of financial instruments:

As the Funds invest in securities, a judgement is made to determine whether certain investments are Held for Trading (“HFT”). If securities are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term or there is evidence of short term profit taking, they are considered to be HFT.

c) Subsidiaries: Each Fund is considered to be an investment entity and, as such, if it has subsidiaries or joint ventures it will account for them at fair value through the profit or loss (“FVTPL”), with the exception of any subsidiaries or joint ventures which provide services related to such Fund’s investment activities, which are consolidated.

d) Financial instruments: The Funds classify their financial instruments as follows:

FVTPL:  HFT: derivative financial instruments, securities sold short and securities acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term, or for which there is evidence of short-term profit taking are considered to be HFT.

 Designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL: all other investments in equity and debt securities.

Amortized cost:  Loans and receivables: cash, balances due from brokers and other receivables.

 Other liabilities – balances due to brokers, redeemable units and other payables.

The Funds recognize financial instruments at fair value upon initial recognition, plus transaction costs in the case of financial instruments not measured at FVTPL. Purchases and sales of financial instruments are recognized at their trade date. Under the amortized cost method, financial assets and liabilities reflect the amount required to be received or paid, discounted, when appropriate, at the contract’s effective interest rate. Amortized cost substantially equals the fair value of these financial instruments due to their short term nature. Each Fund’s obligation for net assets attributable to unitholders is presented at the redemption amount, which approximates fair value.

e) Fair value measurement: Fair value is the price that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to retire a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When available, the Funds measure the fair value of a financial instrument using the close of trading prices within the bid-ask spread in an active market for that instrument. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available and represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length and orderly basis.

Securities listed upon a recognized public stock exchange are valued at last traded market price for both financial assets and liabilities where the last traded price falls within the bid-ask spread. In circumstances where the last traded price is not within the bid-ask spread, the Manager determines the point within the bid-ask spread that is most representative of fair value, based on the specific facts and circumstances.

Fixed income securities are valued at the mean of the bid and ask prices received from recognized investment dealers.

Investment funds are valued at the closing net asset value per unit reported by the administrators of such funds.

If a market for a financial instrument is not active, or a security is not listed upon a recognized stock exchange, the Funds establish fair value using valuation techniques. Valuation techniques include using recent arm’s length transactions between knowledgeable, willing parties, reference to the current fair value of other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flow analyses and other models. The selected technique makes maximum use of market inputs, relies as little as possible on estimates specific to such Fund, incorporates all factors that market participants would consider in setting a price and is consistent with accepted methodologies for pricing financial instruments. Inputs to valuation techniques reasonably represent market expectations and measures of risk-return factors inherent in the financial instruments.

The carrying values of cash, subscriptions receivable, interest receivable, payable for investments purchased, redemptions payable, distributions payable, accrued liabilities and each Fund’s obligation for NAV substantially equals their fair values due to their short-term nature.

f) Net assets attributable to unitholders (“NAV”): NAV represent the various series of redeemable units issued by each Fund (“Units”). The Units represent financial liabilities of each Fund and are presented at their redemption amounts. Units do not meet the criteria to be classified as equity if they impose on the Funds the obligation to deliver cash other than on redemption. As each Fund must distribute its taxable income to unitholders annually and has provided unitholders the option to receive distributions in cash, the Units do not meet the criteria to be classified as equity.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

g) Impairment of financial assets: At each reporting date, each Fund assesses whether there is objective evidence that any financial asset at amortized cost is impaired. If such evidence exists, such Fund recognizes an impairment loss as the difference between the amortized cost of the financial asset and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted using the instrument’s original effective interest rate. Impairment losses are reversed in subsequent periods if the amount of the loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized.

h) Income recognition: Total income (loss) includes dividends, interest for distribution purposes, net realized gains (losses) on sale of investments, changes in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments, distributions received from investment trusts, net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency contracts, change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency contracts, foreign exchange gains (losses) on cash, and securities lending income.

Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. The interest for distribution purposes represents the coupon interest received by the Funds, accounted for on an accrual basis. The Funds do not amortize premiums paid or discounts received on the purchase of fixed income securities, except for zero coupon fixed income securities which are amortized on a straight line basis over the term to maturity. Net realized gains (losses) on sale of investments and change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in investments are determined on an average cost basis. Distributions received from investment trust units are recorded as dividends, interest for distribution purposes, net realized gains (losses) on sale of investments or a return of capital, based on the best information available to the Manager. Due to the nature of those investments, actual allocations could vary from this information. Amounts recorded as a return of capital reduce the tax cost of those investments. Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency contracts represent the amount realized on closing out such derivative contracts. Changes in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in foreign currency contracts represents, for such instruments that continue to be held, the gains (losses) which would result if such contracts were closed out on the valuation date. Securities lending income is accrued daily over the period the securities are loaned.

Net gains (losses) on investments and derivative contracts, as defined in IFRS 7, include the following items:

 HFT: net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency contracts, change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of foreign currency contracts, dividend expense on securities sold short, interest expense paid on securities sold short, net realized gains (losses) on sale of securities sold short, and change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of securities sold short.

 All other FVTPL investments: dividend income, interest income for distribution purposes, net realized gains (losses) on sale of investments, change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments and distributions received from investment trusts.

i) Expenses: All expenses are recognized in the Statements of Operations on an accrual basis. Brokerage commissions and other transaction costs are expensed in the period incurred, and are reported as “Transaction costs” in the Statements of Operations.

j) Foreign currency balances and transactions: The fair values of investments and other assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are converted into Canadian dollars at the rates of exchange prevailing on each valuation date. Purchases and sales of investments, income and expenses are converted at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Foreign exchange gains (losses) on completed transactions are included in net realized gains (losses) on sale of investments and unrealized gains (losses) are included in change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments.

k) Offsetting: Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Statements of Net Assets of a Fund when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

l) Future changes in accounting policies: The final version of IFRS 9, Financial instruments, was issued by the IASB in July, 2014, and will replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 introduces a model for classification and measurement, a single, forward-looking ‘expected loss’ impairment model and a substantially reformed approach to hedge accounting. The new single principle-based approach for determining the classification of financial assets is driven by cash flow characteristics and the business model in which an asset is held. The new model also results in

a single impairment model being applied to all financial instruments, which will require more timely recognition of expected credit losses.

IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, but is available for early adoption. The Funds are in the process of assessing the impact of IFRS 9.

3. Units:

All Funds are authorized to issue Series W and Series I Units, and certain funds are authorized to issue Series C Units. Each Fund may issue an unlimited number of such Fund’s Units of each series, which are redeemable at NAV per unit for the series at the unitholder’s option, in accordance with the provisions of the Declaration of Trust. There are certain minimum purchase amounts for each series of Units. The changes in the number of issued Units are disclosed in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets Attributable to Unitholders.

The capital of each Fund consists of the NAV. In accordance with each Fund’s investment objectives and the risk management policies stated in Note 8, each Fund invests its capital in appropriate investments.

The increase (decrease) in NAV from operations per Unit of a Series for each Fund is calculated by dividing the increase (decrease) in NAV from operations of the Series by the weighted average number of units of the Series outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of Units outstanding for each Fund is disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules.

4. Operating expenses:

Each Fund’s operating expenses consist of the management fee and administration fee paid to the Manager as described below, interest charges, fees and expenses of the Independent Review Committee, transaction costs, foreign withholding taxes when applicable, any new costs related to regulatory or legal requirements imposed upon the Fund, the HST on all of these expenses, and any income taxes to which the Fund may be subject. Management and administration fees as reported in the Statements of Operations are due to the Manager.

The NAV of each Fund attributable to Series W and Series C Units is subject to a management fee charged to the Fund and payable to the Manager. The Series I Units are not subject to a management fee. Management fees in respect of Series I Units are agreed upon directly by the unitholders and the Manager and are paid by the unitholders to the Manager outside the Fund.

The Manager charges to each Fund an administration fee at a fixed annual rate, based on the daily average NAV of the Fund. In return for the administration fee, the Manager provides key management personnel to the Fund, and pays certain variable operating expenses of the Fund, including audit, custody, transfer agency, fund accounting, filing, unitholder reporting, legal, other related expenses, and HST on these expenses. The administration fee rate paid by each Fund is disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules.

The management and administration fees, which are considered to be related party transactions, are accrued daily and are payable monthly in arrears.

5. Income taxes:

The Funds qualify as unit trusts (and certain Funds qualify as mutual fund trusts) under the provisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and, as such, each Fund is not subject to income taxes on its net taxable capital gains and its net income for the period, if it distributes such gains and income (less any applicable losses carried forward) to its unitholders. As required by the Declaration of Trust, the taxable income of each Fund is allocated and distributed annually to its unitholders so as to eliminate any income taxes otherwise payable by the Funds. As a result, each Fund does not record a provision for Canadian income taxes. In addition, each Fund does not record the benefit of any income tax losses carried forward.

5. Income taxes (continued):

The Funds may incur foreign withholding taxes imposed by certain countries on investment income and capital gains. Such income and gains are recorded on a gross basis and the related withholding taxes are disclosed separately as an expense in the Statements of Operations.

The amounts of any tax losses available to be carried forward and applied against future capital gains or income by each Fund are disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules.

6. Soft dollar transactions:

Soft dollar transactions represent formal pre-arranged commitments whereby a portion of the brokerage commissions paid by a Fund are allocated according to a pre-determined formula as payment for certain products or services other than order execution.

There were no soft dollar transactions in any Funds for the periods ending June 30, 2015 and 2014.

7. Distributions:

Distributions to unitholders by each Fund are made on a periodic basis, and reported in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets Attributable to Unitholders. Unitholders have the option to receive distributions in cash or reinvest the distributions into additional Units of that Fund.

8. Financial risk management:

Each Fund’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, short-term securities and investments. As a result, each Fund is exposed to various types of financial risks that are associated with its investment strategies, financial instruments and the markets in which it invests. The most significant financial risks include market risk, which includes currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk, concentration risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.

For risk management purposes the Manager looks through its underlying Funds to the risks of the investments held by those underlying Funds.

These risks and related risk management practices employed by the Funds, and where applicable the underlying Funds, are discussed below:

a) Market risk

(i) Currency risk The Funds may hold assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the Fund. Such Funds may therefore be exposed to currency risk, as the value of the net assets denominated in other currencies will fluctuate due to changes in exchange rates. The currency risk of each Fund is disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules.

(ii) Interest rate risk The Funds may be exposed to interest rate risk directly through their investments in fixed-income securities and indirectly through investments in other Funds which hold fixed-income securities, including the Guardian Canadian Short-Term Investment Fund. Details of the interest rate risk for each Fund are disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules.

(iii) Other price risk Other price risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The investments of the Funds are subject to price fluctuations and the risks inherent in financial markets. The Manager moderates this risk through a careful selection of securities within specified limits as outlined in the investment policies of each Fund, and through diversification of the investment portfolios.

The Manager monitors each Fund’s overall market positions on a daily basis, and positions are maintained within established ranges. The other price risk of each Fund is disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules.

8. Financial risk management (continued):

b) Concentration risk

The Funds are exposed to the possible risks inherent in the concentration of the investment portfolios in a small number of industries, countries and other investment sectors. The Manager moderates this risk through diversification of investment sectors it invests in, and a careful selection of securities in each investment sector within established ranges, as outlined in the investment policies of each Fund. The concentration risk of each Fund is disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules.

c) Liquidity risk The Funds are exposed to daily cash needs related to the redemption of Units, and to the discharge of financial obligations related to their daily operations. The ability to meet these needs is managed, directly or indirectly through its underlying Funds, by retaining sufficient cash within each Fund, and investing mainly in securities which are considered readily realizable and highly liquid. The Funds are subject to securities regulations which limit the amount of illiquid investments it may hold. In addition, the Fund may borrow from the Custodian on a short-term basis at the Canadian or United States bank prime rate plus 2.0%. All liabilities of the Funds are short-term in nature and are due within 60 days.

d) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge its obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Funds may be exposed to credit risk through their holding of debt securities and investment funds which hold debt securities, and dealings with counterparties to the over-the-counter derivative instruments held by the Funds.

9. Classification of financial instruments for fair value measurements:

Each Fund’s financial instruments are recorded at fair value, and have been categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy, which is as follows: Level 1 – quoted market prices; Level 2 – internal models using observable market information as inputs; and, Level 3 – internal models without observable market information inputs. The fair values of each Fund’s financial instruments as categorized within the fair value hierarchy have been disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules, accompanied by a schedule of significant transfers between these levels.

a) Investment funds Each Fund’s investments in other investment funds are classified as Level 1, as the investment funds are actively traded and a reliable price is observable.

b) Equity investments Each Fund’s equity investments are classified as Level 1 when the investment is actively traded and a reliable price is observable. Certain of the Funds’ equity investments do not trade frequently and, therefore, observable prices may not be available. In such cases, fair value is determined using observable market data (e.g., transactions for similar securities of the same issuer), and the fair value is classified as Level 2, unless the determination of fair values requires significant unobservable data, in which case the measurement is classified as Level 3.

(c) Bonds and short-term securities Bonds include primarily government and corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities, which are valued using market bid and ask prices where available. The inputs that are significant to valuation are generally observable, and therefore the Funds’ bonds and short-term securities have been classified as Level 2.

10. Securities lending:

Each Fund may enter into a securities lending agreement under which securities loaned earn for the Fund securities lending income at market rates. The Funds which have entered into securities lending agreements have done so with their custodian, which has a credit rating of AA- (2013, AA). The securities lending arrangements are revolving, and can be terminated at any time by the borrowers, the custodian or the Fund. The Funds will receive collateral of at least 105% of the value of the securities on loan, which will generally comprise obligations guaranteed by the Government of Canada or a province thereof, or other governments with appropriate credit ratings. In the event that a loaned security is not returned to the custodian, the custodian may, at its option, either restore a security identical to the loaned security, or pay to the Fund the value of the collateral up to but not exceeding the market value of the loaned security on the date on which the loaned security was to have been returned (“Valuation Date”). If the collateral is not sufficient to allow the custodian to pay such market value to the Fund, the custodian shall indemnify the Fund for the difference between the fair value of the security and the value of such collateral on the Valuation Date. 134

10. Securities lending (continued):

The securities lending income, the value of the securities on loan, and the collateral received for such loans, are disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules.

11. Related party unitholders:

Units of each of the Funds held by affiliates and officers of the Manager, or other investment funds managed by the Manager, are disclosed in each Fund’s Supplementary Schedules.

12. Investments in non-consolidated structured entities:

The Funds may, from time to time, invest in investment funds, exchange-traded funds, mortgage-related and other asset backed securities and other investments which may be considered to be non-consolidated structured entities. The Fund provides no support to these structured entities beyond its investment in these entities. The maximum exposure to loss for each Fund is limited to the amount presented in the Schedule of Investments for each such investment.

13. Financial statement review:

These financial statements have not been reviewed by the Fund’s auditors.
