Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Focused Growth Opportunities Fund (the Fund) is a non-diversified series of Eaton Vance Growth Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital growth. The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Effective November 5, 2020, Class C shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The Fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946.
A Investment Valuation—The following methodologies are used to determine the market value or fair value of investments.
Equity Securities. Equity securities listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and ask prices on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and ask prices.
Other. Investments in management investment companies (including money market funds) that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the net asset value as of the close of each business day.
Fair Valuation. In connection with Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, the Trustees have designated the Fund’s investment adviser as its valuation designee. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued by the investment adviser, as valuation designee, at fair value using methods that most fairly reflect the security’s “fair value”, which is the amount that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial statements, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
B Investment Transactions—Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income—Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Fund's understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates.
D Federal and Other Taxes—The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital
gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. As of August 31, 2026, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expenses—The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
F Foreign Currency Translation—Other assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions.
G Use of Estimates—The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Focused Growth Opportunities Fund
August 31, 2026
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) — continued
H Indemnifications—Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume, upon request by the shareholder, the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
I Segment Reporting—The Fund operates as a single reportable segment, an investment company whose investment objective(s) is included in Note 1. The Fund’s President acts as the Fund's Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), who is responsible for assessing the performance of the Fund's single segment and deciding how to allocate the segment’s resources. To perform this function, the CODM reviews the information in the Fund’s financial statements.
J Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In September 2026, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2026-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Investment Companies with Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. ASU 2026-03 requires investment companies to consider the effects of certain contractual sale restrictions when measuring the fair value of equity securities and to provide related disclosures. ASU 2026-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2026-03; however, it does not currently expect the implementation of the standard to have a material effect on the Fund's financial statements.
K Interim Financial Statements—The interim financial statements relating to August 31, 2026 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of the Fund’s management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.
2 Distributions to Shareholders and Income Tax Information
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. Distributions to shareholders are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As required by U.S. GAAP, only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits are reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Fund at August 31, 2026, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows: 
Aggregate cost
$55,979,088
Gross unrealized appreciation
$52,731,452
Gross unrealized depreciation
(3,140,948
)
Net unrealized appreciation

3 Investment Adviser and Administration Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser and administration fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, as compensation for investment advisory and administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate as a percentage of average daily net assets as follows and is payable monthly: 
Average Daily Net Assets
Annual Fee Rate
Up to $500 million
0.650
%
$500 million but less than $1 billion
0.625
%
$1 billion but less than $2.5 billion
0.600
%
$2.5 billion but less than $5 billion
0.580
%
$5 billion and over
0.565
%
For the six months ended August 31, 2026, the investment adviser and administration fee amounted to $359,361 or 0.65% (annualized) of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Fund may invest in a money market fund, the Institutional Class of the Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds - Government Portfolio (the “Liquidity Fund”), an open-end management investment company managed by Morgan Stanley Investment Management Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley. The investment adviser and administration fee paid by the Fund is reduced by an amount equal to its pro rata share of the advisory and administration fees paid by the Fund due to its investment in the Liquidity Fund. For the six months ended August 31, 2026, the investment adviser and administration fee paid was reduced by $451 relating to the Fund’s investment in the Liquidity Fund.
EVM has agreed to reimburse the Fund’s expenses to the extent that total annual operating expenses (relating to ordinary operating expenses only and excluding expenses such as brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses of unaffiliated funds, borrowing costs, taxes or litigation expenses) exceed 1.05%, 1.80% and 0.80% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class A, Class C and Class I, respectively, through July 1, 2027. Thereafter, the reimbursement may be changed or terminated at any time. Pursuant to this agreement, EVM waived and/or reimbursed $85,983 of the Fund's operating expenses for the six months ended August 31, 2026.
EVM provides sub-transfer agency and related services to the Fund pursuant to a Sub-Transfer Agency Support Services Agreement. For the six months ended August 31, 2026, EVM earned $7,592 from the Fund pursuant to such agreement, which is included in transfer and dividend disbursing agent fees
on the Statement of Operations. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund's principal underwriter,
received $2,895 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the six months ended August 31, 2026. The Fund was informed that Morgan Stanley affiliated broker-dealers, which may be deemed to be affiliates of EVM and EVD, also received a portion of the sales charge on sales of
Class A shares for the six months ended August 31, 2026 in the amount of $2,250. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s organization receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser and administration fee. Trustees of the Fund who are not affiliated with EVM may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the six months ended August 31, 2026 amounted to $46,724 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect a distribution plan for Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. For the six months ended August 31, 2026, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $20,985 for Class C shares.
Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the six months ended August 31, 2026 amounted to $6,995 for Class C shares.
Distribution and service fees are subject to the limitations contained in the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Rule 2341(d).

5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% generally is imposed on redemptions of Class C shares made within 12 months of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 12 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. For the six months ended August 31, 2026, the Fund was informed that EVD received $456 of CDSCs paid by Class C shareholders and no CDSCs paid by Class A shareholders.
6 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations and in-kind transactions, aggregated $27,054,331 and $30,412,932, respectively,

7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Sales and redemptions of Class I shares include shares purchased and redeemed in connection with the ReFlow liquidity program, a program designed to provide an alternative liquidity source for mutual funds experiencing net redemptions of their shares. The Fund began participating in the ReFlow liquidity program on February 7, 2023. Transactions in Fund shares, including direct exchanges pursuant to share class conversions, were as follows:

8 Line of Credit
The Fund participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $650 million unsecured revolving line of credit agreement with a group of banks, which is in effect through October 20, 2026. Borrowings are made by the Fund solely for temporary purposes related to redemptions and other short-term cash needs. Interest is charged to the Fund based on its borrowings generally at an amount above either the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.15% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. In connection with the renewal of the agreement in October 2025, an arrangement fee of $150,000 was incurred that was allocated to the participating portfolios and funds. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Fund, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Fund did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the six months ended August 31, 2026.
9 Securities Lending Agreement
The Fund has established a securities lending agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) as securities lending agent in which the Fund lends portfolio securities to qualified borrowers in exchange for collateral consisting of either cash or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of securities loaned is determined daily and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. Cash collateral is invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Government Money Market Portfolio, a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act. The Fund earns interest on the amount invested but it must pay (and at times receive from) the broker a loan rebate fee computed as a varying percentage of the collateral received. For security loans secured by non-cash collateral, the Fund earns a negotiated lending fee from the borrower. A portion of the income earned by the Fund from its investment of cash collateral, net of rebate fees, and lending fees received is allocated to SSBT for its services as lending agent and the portion allocated to the Fund is presented as securities lending income, net on the Statement of Operations. Non-cash collateral is held by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund and cannot be sold or re-pledged by the Fund; accordingly, such collateral is not reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The Fund is subject to possible delay in the recovery of loaned securities. Pursuant to the securities lending agreement, SSBT has provided indemnification to the Fund in the event of default by a borrower with respect to a loan. The Fund bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of cash collateral.
At August 31, 2026, the Fund had no securities on loan.
10 Affiliated Investments
At August 31, 2026, the value of the Fund's investment in funds that may be deemed to be affiliated was $248,702, which represents 0.2% of the Fund's net assets. Transactions in such investments by the Fund for the six months ended August 31, 2026 were as follows:

11 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
• Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
• Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Board of Trustees’ Contract Approval
Overview of the Contract Review Process
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), provides, in substance, that the investment advisory agreement between a fund and its investment adviser will continue in effect from year-to-year only if its continuation is approved on an annual basis by a vote of the fund’s board of trustees, including a majority of the trustees who are not “interested persons” of the fund (“independent trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering such approval.
At a meeting held on June 11, 2026, the Boards of Trustees/Directors (collectively, the “Board”) that oversee the registered investment companies advised by Eaton Vance Management or its affiliate, Boston Management and Research (the “Eaton Vance Funds”), including a majority of the independent trustees (the “Independent Trustees”), voted to approve the continuation of existing investment advisory agreements and sub-advisory agreements1 for each of the Eaton Vance Funds for an additional one-year period. The Board relied upon the affirmative recommendation of its Contract Review Committee, which is a committee comprised of all of the Independent Trustees. Prior to making its recommendation, the Contract Review Committee reviewed information furnished by the adviser and sub-adviser to each of the Eaton Vance Funds (including information specifically requested by the Board) for a series of meetings held between April and June 2026, as well as certain additional information provided in response to specific requests from the Independent Trustees as members of the Contract Review Committee. Members of the Contract Review Committee also considered information received at prior meetings of the Board and its committees, to the extent such information was relevant to the Contract Review Committee’s annual evaluation of the investment advisory agreements and sub-advisory agreements.
In connection with its evaluation of the investment advisory agreements and sub-advisory agreements, the Board (directly or through one or more of its committees) considered various information relating to the Eaton Vance Funds. This included information applicable to all or groups of the Eaton Vance Funds, which is referenced immediately below, and information applicable to the particular Eaton Vance Fund covered by this report (each Eaton Vance Fund is referred to below as a “fund”). (For funds that invest through one or more underlying portfolios, references to “each fund” in this section may include information that was considered at the portfolio-level.)

1 Not all Eaton Vance Funds have entered into a sub-advisory agreement with a sub-adviser. Accordingly, references to “sub-adviser” or “sub-advisory agreement” in this “Overview” section may not be applicable to the particular Eaton Vance Fund covered by this report.

• The terms of each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement.
During the various meetings of the Board and its committees over the course of the year leading up to the June 11, 2026 meeting, the Board and its committees received information from portfolio managers and other investment professionals of the adviser and sub-advisers of the funds regarding investment and performance matters, and considered various investment and trading strategies used in pursuing the funds’ investment objectives. The Board and its committees also received information regarding risk management techniques employed in connection with the management of the funds. The Board and its committees evaluated issues pertaining to industry and regulatory developments, compliance procedures, fund governance, and other issues with respect to the funds, and received and participated in reports and presentations provided by the adviser, sub-advisers, and certain other service providers, with respect to such matters. In addition to the formal meetings of the Board and its committees, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions and held regular video or telephone conferences to discuss, among other topics, matters relating to the continuation of investment advisory agreements and sub-advisory agreements.
Each of the Contract Review Committee and the Board was advised throughout the contract review process by Kirkland & Ellis LLP, independent legal counsel for the Independent Trustees. The members of the Contract Review Committee and the members of the Board, with the advice of such counsel, exercised their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached with respect to each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all the information provided and not any single factor. Moreover, each member of the Contract Review Committee and Board may have placed varying emphasis on particular factors in reaching conclusions with respect to each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement. In evaluating each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement, including the fee structures and other terms contained in such agreements, the members of the Contract Review Committee and Board were also informed by multiple years of analysis and discussion with the adviser and sub-adviser to each of the Eaton Vance Funds.

Board of Trustees’ Contract Approval — continued
Results of the Contract Review Process
Based on its consideration of the foregoing, and such other information it deemed relevant, including the factors and conclusions described below, the Contract Review Committee concluded that the continuation of the investment advisory and administrative agreement between Eaton Vance Focused Growth Opportunities Fund (the “Fund”) and Eaton Vance Management (the “Adviser”), including its fee structure, is in the interests of shareholders and, therefore, recommended to the Board approval of the agreement. Based on the recommendation of the Contract Review Committee, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve continuation of the investment advisory and administrative agreement for the Fund.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
In considering whether to approve the investment advisory and administrative agreement for the Fund, the Board evaluated the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Adviser.
The Board considered the Adviser’s management capabilities and investment processes in light of the types of investments held by the Fund, including the education and experience of the investment professionals who provide services to the Fund. The Board specifically noted that the Adviser has devoted extensive resources to in-house equity research and also draws upon independent research available from third-party sources. The Board also took into account the resources dedicated to portfolio management and other services, the compensation methods of the Adviser and other factors, including the reputation and resources of the Adviser to recruit and retain highly qualified research, advisory and supervisory investment professionals. In addition, the Board considered the time and attention devoted to the Eaton Vance Funds, including the Fund, by senior management, as well as the infrastructure, operational capabilities and support staff in place to assist in the portfolio management and operations of the Fund, including the provision of administrative services. The Board also considered the business-related and other risks to which the Adviser or its affiliates may be subject in managing the Fund.
The Board considered the compliance programs of the Adviser and relevant affiliates thereof. The Board considered compliance and reporting matters regarding, among other things, personal trading by investment professionals, disclosure of portfolio holdings, compliance with policies and procedures, portfolio valuation, business continuity and the allocation of investment opportunities. The Board also considered relevant examinations of the Adviser and its affiliates by regulatory authorities, such as the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.
The Board considered other administrative services provided or overseen by Eaton Vance Management and its affiliates, including transfer agency and accounting services. The Board evaluated the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund that is a part of a large fund complex offering exposure to a variety of asset classes and investment disciplines, as well as the ability, in many cases, to exchange an investment among different funds without incurring additional sales charges.
After consideration of the foregoing factors, among others, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser, taken as a whole, are appropriate and consistent with the terms of the investment advisory and administrative agreement.
Fund Performance
The Board compared the Fund’s investment performance to that of comparable funds identified by an independent data provider (the peer group), as well as an appropriate benchmark index. The Board’s review included comparative performance data with respect to the Fund for the one-, three-, five and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2025. In this regard, the Board noted that the performance of the Fund was higher than the median performance of the Fund’s peer group for the three-year period. The Board also noted that the performance of the Fund was lower than its primary performance benchmark index for the three-year period. The Board concluded that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory.
Management Fees and Expenses
The Board considered contractual fee rates payable by the Fund for advisory and administrative services (referred to collectively as “management fees”). As part of its review, the Board considered the Fund’s management fees and total expense ratio for the one-year period ended December 31, 2025, as compared to those of comparable funds, before and after giving effect to any undertaking to waive fees or reimburse expenses. The Board also considered factors that had an impact on the Fund’s total expense ratio relative to comparable funds. The Board also received and considered information about the services offered and the fee rates charged by the Adviser to other types of accounts with the same or substantially similar investment objective as the Fund and with a significant overlap in holdings based on criteria set by the Board. For any such type of account, the Board received information about the differences in the nature and scope of services the Adviser provides to the Fund as compared to other types of account and the material differences in compliance, reporting and other legal burdens and risks to the Adviser as between the Fund and other type of account.
After considering the foregoing information, and in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board concluded that the management fees charged for advisory and related services are reasonable.
Profitability and “Fall-Out” Benefits
The Board considered the level of profits realized by the Adviser and relevant affiliates thereof in providing investment advisory and administrative services to the Fund and to all Eaton Vance Funds as a group.

Eaton Vance
Focused Growth Opportunities Fund
August 31, 2026
Board of Trustees’ Contract Approval — continued
The Board concluded that, in light of the foregoing factors and the nature, extent and quality of the services rendered, the profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates are not excessive.
The Board also considered direct and indirect fall-out benefits received by the Adviser and its affiliates in connection with their respective relationships with the Fund and the other Eaton Vance Funds, including, among other things, fees for trading, distribution and/or shareholder servicing and for transaction processing and reporting platforms used by securities lending agent(s), and research received by each Adviser generated from commission dollars spent on funds’ portfolio trading.
Economies of Scale
In reviewing management fees and profitability, the Board also considered the extent to which the Adviser and its affiliates, on the one hand, and the Fund, on the other hand, can expect to realize benefits from economies of scale as the assets of the Fund increase. The Board acknowledged the difficulty in accurately measuring the benefits resulting from economies of scale, if any, with respect to the management of any specific fund or group of funds. To assist in the evaluation of the sharing of any economies of scale, the Board received data for recent years showing asset levels, Adviser profitability and total expense ratios. Based upon the foregoing, the Board concluded that the Fund currently shares in the benefits from economies of scale, if any, when they are realized by the Adviser. The Board also concluded that the structure of the advisory fee, which includes breakpoints at several asset levels, will allow the Fund to continue to benefit from any economies of scale in the future.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Focused Value Opportunities Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Growth Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is total return. The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Effective November 5, 2020, Class C shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The Fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946.
A Investment Valuation—The following methodologies are used to determine the market value or fair value of investments.
Equity Securities. Equity securities listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and ask prices on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and ask prices.
Other. Investments in management investment companies (including money market funds) that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the net asset value as of the close of each business day.
Fair Valuation. In connection with Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, the Trustees have designated the Fund’s investment adviser as its valuation designee. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued by the investment adviser, as valuation designee, at fair value using methods that most fairly reflect the security’s “fair value”, which is the amount that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial statements, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
B Investment Transactions—Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income—Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates.
D Federal and Other Taxes—The Fund's policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
As of August 31, 2026, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expenses—The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
F Use of Estimates—The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications—Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume, upon request by the shareholder, the
9

Eaton Vance
Focused Value Opportunities Fund
August 31, 2026
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) — continued
defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Segment Reporting—The Fund operates as a single reportable segment, an investment company whose investment objective(s) is included in Note 1. The Fund’s President acts as the Fund's Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), who is responsible for assessing the performance of the Fund's single segment and deciding how to allocate the segment’s resources. To perform this function, the CODM reviews the information in the Fund’s financial statements.
I Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In September 2026, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2026-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Investment Companies with Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. ASU 2026-03 requires investment companies to consider the effects of certain contractual sale restrictions when measuring the fair value of equity securities and to provide related disclosures. ASU 2026-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2026-03; however, it does not currently expect the implementation of the standard to have a material effect on the Fund's financial statements.
J Interim Financial Statements—The interim financial statements relating to August 31, 2026 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of the Fund’s management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.
2 Distributions to Shareholders and Income Tax Information
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. Distributions to shareholders are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As required by U.S. GAAP, only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits are reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Fund at August 31, 2026, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows: 
Aggregate cost
$58,753,132
Gross unrealized appreciation

For the six months ended August 31, 2026, the investment adviser and administration fee amounted to $230,975 or 0.65% (annualized) of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Fund may invest in a money market fund, the Institutional Class of the Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Funds - Government Portfolio (the “Liquidity Fund”), an open-end management investment company managed by Morgan Stanley Investment Management Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley. The investment adviser and administration fee paid by the Fund is reduced by an amount equal to its pro rata share of the advisory and administration fees paid by the Fund due to its investment in the Liquidity Fund. For the six months ended August 31, 2026, the investment adviser and administration fee paid was reduced by $619 relating to the Fund’s investment in the Liquidity Fund.
EVM has agreed to reimburse the Fund’s expenses to the extent that total annual operating expenses (relating to ordinary operating expenses only and excluding expenses such as brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses of unaffiliated funds, borrowing costs, taxes or litigation expenses) exceed 0.99%, 1.74% and 0.74% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class A, Class C and Class I, respectively, through July 1, 2027. Thereafter, the reimbursement may be changed or terminated at any time. Pursuant to this agreement, EVM waived and/or reimbursed $115,043 of the Fund's operating expenses for the six months ended August 31, 2026.
EVM provides sub-transfer agency and related services to the Fund pursuant to a Sub-Transfer Agency Support Services Agreement. For the six months ended August 31, 2026, EVM earned $2,940 from the Fund pursuant to such agreement, which is included in transfer and dividend disbursing agent fees on the Statement of Operations. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund's principal underwriter, received $1,477 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the six months ended August 31, 2026. The Fund was informed that Morgan Stanley affiliated broker-dealers, which may be deemed to be affiliates of EVM and EVD, also received a portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the six months ended August 31, 2026 in the amount of $677. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s organization receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser and administration fee. Trustees of the Fund who are not affiliated with EVM may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the six months ended August 31, 2026 amounted to $21,435 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect a distribution plan for Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. For the six months ended August 31, 2026, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $27,857 for Class C shares.
Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the six months ended August 31, 2026 amounted to $9,285 for Class C shares.
Distribution and service fees are subject to the limitations contained in the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Rule 2341(d).
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% generally is imposed on redemptions of Class C shares made within 12 months of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 12 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. For the six months ended August 31, 2026, the Fund was informed that EVD received $498 of CDSCs paid by Class C shareholders and no CDSCs paid by Class A shareholders.
6 Purchases and Sales of Investments

8 Line of Credit
The Fund participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $650 million unsecured revolving line of credit agreement with a group of banks, which is in effect through October 20, 2026. Borrowings are made by the Fund solely for temporary purposes related to redemptions and other short-term cash needs. Interest is charged to the Fund based on its borrowings generally at an amount above either the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.15% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. In connection with the renewal of the agreement in October 2025, an arrangement fee of $150,000 was incurred that was allocated to the participating portfolios and funds. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Fund, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Fund did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the six months ended August 31, 2026.

10 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
• Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
• Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At August 31, 2026, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Fund's investments, which are carried at fair value, were as follows:

Board of Trustees’ Contract Approval
Overview of the Contract Review Process
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), provides, in substance, that the investment advisory agreement between a fund and its investment adviser will continue in effect from year-to-year only if its continuation is approved on an annual basis by a vote of the fund’s board of trustees, including a majority of the trustees who are not “interested persons” of the fund (“independent trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering such approval.
At a meeting held on June 11, 2026, the Boards of Trustees/Directors (collectively, the “Board”) that oversee the registered investment companies advised by Eaton Vance Management or its affiliate, Boston Management and Research (the “Eaton Vance Funds”), including a majority of the independent trustees (the “Independent Trustees”), voted to approve the continuation of existing investment advisory agreements and sub-advisory agreements1 for each of the Eaton Vance Funds for an additional one-year period. The Board relied upon the affirmative recommendation of its Contract Review Committee, which is a committee comprised of all of the Independent Trustees. Prior to making its recommendation, the Contract Review Committee reviewed information furnished by the adviser and sub-adviser to each of the Eaton Vance Funds (including information specifically requested by the Board) for a series of meetings held between April and June 2026, as well as certain additional information provided in response to specific requests from the Independent Trustees as members of the Contract Review Committee. Members of the Contract Review Committee also considered information received at prior meetings of the Board and its committees, to the extent such information was relevant to the Contract Review Committee’s annual evaluation of the investment advisory agreements and sub-advisory agreements.
In connection with its evaluation of the investment advisory agreements and sub-advisory agreements, the Board (directly or through one or more of its committees) considered various information relating to the Eaton Vance Funds. This included information applicable to all or groups of the Eaton Vance Funds, which is referenced immediately below, and information applicable to the particular Eaton Vance Fund covered by this report (each Eaton Vance Fund is referred to below as a “fund”). (For funds that invest through one or more underlying portfolios, references to “each fund” in this section may include information that was considered at the portfolio-level.)

During the various meetings of the Board and its committees over the course of the year leading up to the June 11, 2026 meeting, the Board and its committees received information from portfolio managers and other investment professionals of the adviser and sub-advisers of the funds regarding investment and performance matters, and considered various investment and trading strategies used in pursuing the funds’ investment objectives. The Board and its committees also received information regarding risk management techniques employed in connection with the management of the funds. The Board and its committees evaluated issues pertaining to industry and regulatory developments, compliance procedures, fund governance, and other issues with respect to the funds, and received and participated in reports and presentations provided by the adviser, sub-advisers, and certain other service providers, with respect to such matters. In addition to the formal meetings of the Board and its committees, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions and held regular video or telephone conferences to discuss, among other topics, matters relating to the continuation of investment advisory agreements and sub-advisory agreements.
Each of the Contract Review Committee and the Board was advised throughout the contract review process by Kirkland & Ellis LLP, independent legal counsel for the Independent Trustees. The members of the Contract Review Committee and the members of the Board, with the advice of such counsel, exercised their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached with respect to each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all the information provided and not any single factor. Moreover, each member of the Contract Review Committee and Board may have placed varying emphasis on particular factors in reaching conclusions with respect to each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement. In evaluating each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement, including the fee structures and other terms contained in such agreements, the members of the Contract Review Committee and Board were also informed by multiple years of analysis and discussion with the adviser and sub-adviser to each of the Eaton Vance Funds.
Results of the Contract Review Process
Based on its consideration of the foregoing, and such other information it deemed relevant, including the factors and conclusions described below, the Contract Review Committee concluded that the continuation of the investment advisory and administrative agreement between Eaton Vance Focused Value Opportunities Fund (the “Fund”) and Eaton Vance Management (the “Adviser”), including its fee structure, is in the interests of shareholders and, therefore, recommended to the Board approval of the agreement. Based on the recommendation of the Contract Review Committee, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve continuation of the investment advisory and administrative agreement for the Fund.

Board of Trustees’ Contract Approval — continued
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
In considering whether to approve the investment advisory and administrative agreement for the Fund, the Board evaluated the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Adviser.
The Board considered the Adviser’s management capabilities and investment processes in light of the types of investments held by the Fund, including the education and experience of the investment professionals who provide services to the Fund, including recent changes to such personnel. The Board specifically noted that the Adviser has devoted extensive resources to in-house equity research and also draws upon independent research available from third-party sources. The Board also took into account the resources dedicated to portfolio management and other services, the compensation methods of the Adviser and other factors, including the reputation and resources of the Adviser to recruit and retain highly qualified research, advisory and supervisory investment professionals. In addition, the Board considered the time and attention devoted to the Eaton Vance Funds, including the Fund, by senior management, as well as the infrastructure, operational capabilities and support staff in place to assist in the portfolio management and operations of the Fund, including the provision of administrative services. The Board also considered the business-related and other risks to which the Adviser or its affiliates may be subject in managing the Fund.
The Board considered the compliance programs of the Adviser and relevant affiliates thereof. The Board considered compliance and reporting matters regarding, among other things, personal trading by investment professionals, disclosure of portfolio holdings, compliance with policies and procedures, portfolio valuation, business continuity and the allocation of investment opportunities. The Board also considered relevant examinations of the Adviser and its affiliates by regulatory authorities, such as the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.
The Board considered other administrative services provided or overseen by Eaton Vance Management and its affiliates, including transfer agency and accounting services. The Board evaluated the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund that is a part of a large fund complex offering exposure to a variety of asset classes and investment disciplines, as well as the ability, in many cases, to exchange an investment among different funds without incurring additional sales charges.
After consideration of the foregoing factors, among others, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser, taken as a whole, are appropriate and consistent with the terms of the investment advisory and administrative agreement.
Fund Performance
The Board compared the Fund’s investment performance to that of comparable funds identified by an independent data provider (the peer group), as well as an appropriate benchmark index. The Board’s review included comparative performance data with respect to the Fund for the one-, three-, five and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2025. In this regard, the Board noted that the performance of the Fund was lower than the median performance of the Fund’s peer group for the three-year period. The Board also noted that the performance of the Fund was lower than its primary performance benchmark index for the three-year period. The Board considered information from the Adviser regarding the reasons for the Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group, including stock selection in certain sectors. In this regard, the Board determined to continue to monitor the performance of the Fund.
Management Fees and Expenses
The Board considered contractual fee rates payable by the Fund for advisory and administrative services (referred to collectively as “management fees”). As part of its review, the Board considered the Fund’s management fees and total expense ratio for the one-year period ended December 31, 2025, as compared to those of comparable funds, before and after giving effect to any undertaking to waive fees or reimburse expenses. The Board also considered factors that had an impact on the Fund’s total expense ratio relative to comparable funds. The Board also received and considered information about the services offered and the fee rates charged by the Adviser to other types of accounts with the same or substantially similar investment objective as the Fund and with a significant overlap in holdings based on criteria set by the Board. For any such type of account, the Board received information about the differences in the nature and scope of services the Adviser provides to the Fund as compared to other type of account and the material differences in compliance, reporting and other legal burdens and risks to the Adviser as between the Fund/Portfolio and other type of account.
After considering the foregoing information, and in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board concluded that the management fees charged for advisory and related services are reasonable.
Profitability and “Fall-Out” Benefits
The Board considered the level of profits realized by the Adviser and relevant affiliates thereof in providing investment advisory and administrative services to the Fund and to all Eaton Vance Funds as a group. The Board considered the level of profits realized without regard to marketing support or other payments by the Adviser and its affiliates to third parties in respect of distribution or other services.
The Board concluded that, in light of the foregoing factors and the nature, extent and quality of the services rendered, the profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates are not excessive.

Focused Value Opportunities Fund
August 31, 2026
Board of Trustees’ Contract Approval — continued
The Board also considered direct and indirect fall-out benefits received by the Adviser and its affiliates in connection with their respective relationships with the Fund and the other Eaton Vance Funds, including, among other things, fees for trading, distribution and/or shareholder servicing and for transaction processing and reporting platforms used by securities lending agent(s), and research received by each Adviser generated from commission dollars spent on funds’ portfolio trading.
Economies of Scale
In reviewing management fees and profitability, the Board also considered the extent to which the Adviser and its affiliates, on the one hand, and the Fund, on the other hand, can expect to realize benefits from economies of scale as the assets of the Fund increase. The Board acknowledged the difficulty in accurately measuring the benefits resulting from economies of scale, if any, with respect to the management of any specific fund or group of funds. To assist in the evaluation of the sharing of any economies of scale, the Board received data for recent years showing, asset levels, Adviser profitability and total expense ratios. Based upon the foregoing, the Board concluded that the Fund currently shares in the benefits from economies of scale, if any, when they are realized by the Adviser. The Board also concluded that the structure of the advisory fee, which includes breakpoints at several asset levels, will allow the Fund to continue to benefit from any economies of scale in the future.
