Material Fund Changes 

This is a summary of certain changes to the Fund since August 31, 2025. For more complete information, you may review the Fund’s next prospectus, which we expect to be available by January 1, 2027 at www.eatonvance.com/open-end-mutual-fund-documents.php or upon request by contacting us at 1-800-262-1122.

The net expense ratio decreased from the prior fiscal year primarily because the reduction in the investment adviser and administration fee and the agreement to reimburse the Fund’s expenses, both effective August 18, 2025, were in effect throughout the current fiscal year. The decrease also reflected a reduction in the investment adviser and administration fee due to the Fund’s investments in affiliated funds.

Material Fund Changes 

This is a summary of certain changes to the Fund since August 31, 2025. For more complete information, you may review the Fund’s next prospectus, which we expect to be available by January 1, 2027 at www.eatonvance.com/open-end-mutual-fund-documents.php or upon request by contacting us at 1-800-262-1122.

The net expense ratio decreased from the prior fiscal year primarily because the reduction in the investment adviser and administration fee and the agreement to reimburse the Fund’s expenses, both effective August 18, 2025, were in effect throughout the current fiscal year. The decrease also reflected a reduction in the investment adviser and administration fee due to the Fund’s investments in affiliated funds.

Material Fund Changes 

This is a summary of certain changes to the Fund since August 31, 2025. For more complete information, you may review the Fund’s next prospectus, which we expect to be available by January 1, 2027 at www.eatonvance.com/open-end-mutual-fund-documents.php or upon request by contacting us at 1-800-262-1122.

The net expense ratio decreased from the prior fiscal year primarily because the reduction in the investment adviser and administration fee and the agreement to reimburse the Fund’s expenses, both effective August 18, 2025, were in effect throughout the current fiscal year. The decrease also reflected a reduction in the investment adviser and administration fee due to the Fund’s investments in affiliated funds.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Key contributors to (↑) and detractors from (↓) performance, relative to the MSCI China Index (the Index):

 

↑ An overweight position in global semiconductor equipment maker NAURA Technology helped as the stock gained from ongoing semiconductor production localization

↑ An overweight position in China Construction Bank helped as net interest margin stabilized and state-owned enterprise bank re-rating strengthened capital base

↑ An out-of-index position in Shanghai Xizhi Technology helped as shares rallied from the initial public offering price on the AI optical-interconnect theme. The position was sold by the end of the period

↑ On a sector basis, stock selection in information technology and health care helped performance

↓ Overweight positions in Alibaba and Tencent Holdings detracted as stocks fell sharply amid a broad selloff in Chinese internet and communication services names

↓ No holdings in Bank of China Ltd. detracted as the stock rose amid demand for high-dividend-yielding financials as investors sought portfolio diversification

↓ On a sector basis, stock selection in consumer discretionary, an underweight to materials and an overweight to communication services hurt returns

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Key contributors to (↑) and detractors from (↓) performance, relative to the MSCI China Index (the Index):

 

↑ An overweight position in global semiconductor equipment maker NAURA Technology helped as the stock gained from ongoing semiconductor production localization

↑ An overweight position in China Construction Bank helped as net interest margin stabilized and state-owned enterprise bank re-rating strengthened capital base

↑ An out-of-index position in Shanghai Xizhi Technology helped as shares rallied from the initial public offering price on the AI optical-interconnect theme. The position was sold by the end of the period

↑ On a sector basis, stock selection in information technology and health care helped performance

↓ Overweight positions in Alibaba and Tencent Holdings detracted as stocks fell sharply amid a broad selloff in Chinese internet and communication services names

↓ No holdings in Bank of China Ltd. detracted as the stock rose amid demand for high-dividend-yielding financials as investors sought portfolio diversification

↓ On a sector basis, stock selection in consumer discretionary, an underweight to materials and an overweight to communication services hurt returns

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Key contributors to (↑) and detractors from (↓) performance, relative to the MSCI China Index (the Index):

 

↑ An overweight position in global semiconductor equipment maker NAURA Technology helped as the stock gained from ongoing semiconductor production localization

↑ An overweight position in China Construction Bank helped as net interest margin stabilized and state-owned enterprise bank re-rating strengthened capital base

↑ An out-of-index position in Shanghai Xizhi Technology helped as shares rallied from the initial public offering price on the AI optical-interconnect theme. The position was sold by the end of the period

↑ On a sector basis, stock selection in information technology and health care helped performance

↓ Overweight positions in Alibaba and Tencent Holdings detracted as stocks fell sharply amid a broad selloff in Chinese internet and communication services names

↓ No holdings in Bank of China Ltd. detracted as the stock rose amid demand for high-dividend-yielding financials as investors sought portfolio diversification

↓ On a sector basis, stock selection in consumer discretionary, an underweight to materials and an overweight to communication services hurt returns

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Key contributors to (↑) and detractors from (↓) performance, relative to the MSCI World Health Care Index (the Index):

 

↓ Overweight to Zoetis, Inc. detracted due to its lowered 2026 guidance on weaker US pet demand and competition in dermatology and parasiticide products. This was sold by period end

↓ Overweight to Boston Scientific Corp. detracted as its 2026 growth outlook was cut on weaker WATCHMAN demand and electrophysiology US market share losses. This was sold by period end

↓ Overweight to CSL Ltd. hurt due to weaker US flu vaccine demand, lower immunoglobulin and China albumin sales and a chief executive officer change. This was sold by period end

↓ On an industry basis, stock selection in biotechnology detracted the most, followed by health care equipment and supplies, and life science tools and services

↑ Overweight to Eli Lilly & Co. helped as strong Mounjaro and Zepbound GLP-1 drugs sales and US approval of obesity pill Foundayo supported shares

↑ Out-of-index allocation to Structure Therapeutics, Inc. added as shares rose on strong mid-stage trial results for its oral weight-loss drug. This was sold by period end

↑ Overweight to Bristol Myers Squibb Co. helped as growth from newer drugs in cardiomyopathy and blood cancers more than offset declines in older drugs

↑ Stock selection in pharmaceuticals and health care technology helped returns

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Key contributors to (↑) and detractors from (↓) performance, relative to the MSCI World Health Care Index (the Index):

 

↓ Overweight to Zoetis, Inc. detracted due to its lowered 2026 guidance on weaker US pet demand and competition in dermatology and parasiticide products. This was sold by period end

↓ Overweight to Boston Scientific Corp. detracted as its 2026 growth outlook was cut on weaker WATCHMAN demand and electrophysiology US market share losses. This was sold by period end

↓ Overweight to CSL Ltd. hurt due to weaker US flu vaccine demand, lower immunoglobulin and China albumin sales and a chief executive officer change. This was sold by period end

↓ On an industry basis, stock selection in biotechnology detracted the most, followed by health care equipment and supplies, and life science tools and services

↑ Overweight to Eli Lilly & Co. helped as strong Mounjaro and Zepbound GLP-1 drugs sales and US approval of obesity pill Foundayo supported shares

↑ Out-of-index allocation to Structure Therapeutics, Inc. added as shares rose on strong mid-stage trial results for its oral weight-loss drug. This was sold by period end

↑ Overweight to Bristol Myers Squibb Co. helped as growth from newer drugs in cardiomyopathy and blood cancers more than offset declines in older drugs

↑ Stock selection in pharmaceuticals and health care technology helped returns

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Key contributors to (↑) and detractors from (↓) performance, relative to the MSCI World Health Care Index (the Index):

 

↓ Overweight to Zoetis, Inc. detracted due to its lowered 2026 guidance on weaker US pet demand and competition in dermatology and parasiticide products. This was sold by period end

↓ Overweight to Boston Scientific Corp. detracted as its 2026 growth outlook was cut on weaker WATCHMAN demand and electrophysiology US market share losses. This was sold by period end

↓ Overweight to CSL Ltd. hurt due to weaker US flu vaccine demand, lower immunoglobulin and China albumin sales and a chief executive officer change. This was sold by period end

↓ On an industry basis, stock selection in biotechnology detracted the most, followed by health care equipment and supplies, and life science tools and services

↑ Overweight to Eli Lilly & Co. helped as strong Mounjaro and Zepbound GLP-1 drugs sales and US approval of obesity pill Foundayo supported shares

↑ Out-of-index allocation to Structure Therapeutics, Inc. added as shares rose on strong mid-stage trial results for its oral weight-loss drug. This was sold by period end

↑ Overweight to Bristol Myers Squibb Co. helped as growth from newer drugs in cardiomyopathy and blood cancers more than offset declines in older drugs

↑ Stock selection in pharmaceuticals and health care technology helped returns

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Key contributors to (↑) and detractors from (↓) performance, relative to the MSCI World Health Care Index (the Index):

 

↓ Overweight to Zoetis, Inc. detracted due to its lowered 2026 guidance on weaker US pet demand and competition in dermatology and parasiticide products. This was sold by period end

↓ Overweight to Boston Scientific Corp. detracted as its 2026 growth outlook was cut on weaker WATCHMAN demand and electrophysiology US market share losses. This was sold by period end

↓ Overweight to CSL Ltd. hurt due to weaker US flu vaccine demand, lower immunoglobulin and China albumin sales and a chief executive officer change. This was sold by period end

↓ On an industry basis, stock selection in biotechnology detracted the most, followed by health care equipment and supplies, and life science tools and services

↑ Overweight to Eli Lilly & Co. helped as strong Mounjaro and Zepbound GLP-1 drugs sales and US approval of obesity pill Foundayo supported shares

↑ Out-of-index allocation to Structure Therapeutics, Inc. added as shares rose on strong mid-stage trial results for its oral weight-loss drug. This was sold by period end

↑ Overweight to Bristol Myers Squibb Co. helped as growth from newer drugs in cardiomyopathy and blood cancers more than offset declines in older drugs

↑ Stock selection in pharmaceuticals and health care technology helped returns
