Artificial intelligence and the growing need for memory chips drove the rally, with information technology, communication services and energy sectors leading the gains. The U.S. economy remained resilient, underpinned by higher consumer spending. However, signs of a softening labor market prompted the U.S. Federal Reserve to implement three 25-basis-point rate cuts during the period.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, holdings in most sectors contributed, with information technology, communication services, and consumer discretionary being particularly additive. Returns from the health care, industrials and energy sectors also significantly contributed to the portfolio.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Conversely, the fund’s holdings in the materials and financials sectors detracted during the period.</div>

The change in the fund’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the fund’s board of trustees, including a majority of the independent trustees, upon recommendation of the audit committee, as part of a broader effort to update board oversight and fund operations. At no point during the fund’s fiscal years ended May 31, 2024 and May 31, 2025 and the subsequent interim period through July 14, 2025, were there any disagreements between management and PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.</div>
