ITEM 1. REPORT TO STOCKHOLDERS

Annual Shareholder Report

This annual shareholder report contains important information about Broad Market Core Bond ETF for the period from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2026. You can find additional information about the Fund at allspringglobal.com. You can also request this information by contacting us at 1-866-701-2575.

The table explains the costs you would have paid within the reporting period based on a hypothetical $10,000 investment.

Table Summary
CLASS NAME	COSTS OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT	COSTS PAID AS A % OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT
Broad Market Core Bond ETF	$19	0.19%

Pursuant to a unitary fee arrangement between the Fund and the Manager, the Manager has agreed to pay all expenses incurred by, and appropriately allocated to, the Fund, excluding only: the management fee payable to the Manager and certain other expenses. Please see the prospectus for the annual unitary fee and more details on excluded expenses.

The Fund outperformed its benchmark for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2026. Overweight allocations to other U.S. government securitizations, including Small Business Administration securitizations, taxable municipals, and corporates were the biggest contributors to performance. Our bond selections within agency residential mortgage-backed securities and corporates also enhanced returns. Yield-curve positioning was a relative drag on returns.

Treasury rates rose to multi-decade highs in 2026 on renewed concerns over inflation and government balance sheets. Despite rising rates, a meaningful income stream more than offset negative price returns, resulting in positive total returns. Credit spreads were durable, supported by a resilient U.S. economy and labor market, which drove outperformance across non-Treasury sectors.

Portfolio positioning was consistent, with only minor adjustments made to capture relative value opportunities. The portfolio is fully invested, with a modestly defensive posture. We plan to maintain a disciplined, quality-focused approach based on protecting capital and capturing selective opportunities while staying flexible as conditions evolve.

The table explains the costs you would have paid within the reporting period based on a hypothetical $10,000 investment.

Table Summary
CLASS NAME	COSTS OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT	COSTS PAID AS A % OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT
Core Plus ETF	$30	0.30%

The Fund outperformed its benchmark for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2026. Treasury yields were volatile and rose across most maturities. Yields initially declined as the Federal Reserve (Fed) cut its policy rate by 75 basis points (bps; 100 bps equal 1.00%) from September through December 2025. The Fed then held rates steady as resilient growth, elevated inflation, higher energy prices, and concerns about federal borrowing pushed yields higher. Credit spreads remained tight, supported by solid corporate fundamentals and strong investor demand.

Portfolio duration was neutral to the benchmark before we modestly extended after sovereign yields rose in response to the war in Iran. The portfolio sought higher-quality yield through diversified corporate, non-benchmark securitized, and out-of-benchmark plus sector exposures. These plus sectors include emerging market debt, U.S. and European high yield bonds, European investment grade bonds, and global government bonds.

Sector allocation, including securitized and plus sector exposures, contributed to performance, as did credit-quality allocation, security selection, and duration. Yield-curve positioning was the primary detractor, particularly an overweight to the 2-year portion of the curve and an underweight to the long end.

Notes to financial statements

1.ORGANIZATION

Allspring Exchange-Traded Funds Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust organized on June 19, 2014, is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Allspring Broad Market Core Bond ETF (the “Fund”) which is a diversified series of the Trust.

2.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the Fund, are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Securities valuation

All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.

Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service (e.g., taking into account various factors, including yields, maturities, or credit ratings) or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.

Futures contracts that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price.

Investments in registered open-end investment companies (other than those listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market) are valued at net asset value (“NAV”).

Investments which are not valued using the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by Allspring Funds Management, LLC (“Allspring Funds Management”), which was named the valuation designee by the Board of Trustees. As the valuation designee, Allspring Funds Management is responsible for day-to-day valuation activities for the Allspring Funds. In connection with these responsibilities, Allspring Funds Management has established a Valuation Committee and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports of valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee. On at least an annual basis, the Board of Trustees receives an assessment of the adequacy and effectiveness of Allspring Funds Management’s process for determining the fair value of the portfolio of investments.

When-issued transactions

The Fund may purchase securities on a forward commitment or when-issued basis. The Fund records a when-issued transaction on the trade date and will segregate assets in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund’s commitment to purchase when-issued securities. Securities purchased on a when-issued basis are marked-to-market daily and the Fund begins earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

Futures contracts

Futures contracts are agreements between the Fund and a counterparty to buy or sell a specific amount of a commodity, financial instrument or currency at a specified price and on a specified date. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to, or protect against, changes in interest rates and is subject to interest rate risk. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between changes in market values of securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Futures contracts are generally entered into on a regulated futures exchange and cleared through a clearinghouse associated with the exchange. With futures contracts, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since futures contracts are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as the counterparty to all exchange-traded futures, guarantees the futures contracts against default.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) with the broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are paid to or received from the broker each day equal to the daily changes in the contract value. Such payments are recorded as unrealized gains or losses and, if any, shown as variation margin receivable (payable) in the Statement of assets and liabilities. Should the Fund fail to make requested variation margin payments, the broker can gain access to the initial margin to satisfy the Fund’s payment obligations. When the contracts are closed, a realized gain or loss is recorded in the Statement of operations.

TBA sale commitments

The Fund may enter into To Be Announced (“TBA”) sale commitments to hedge its portfolio positions or to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed delivery arrangements. Proceeds of TBA sale commitments are not received until the contractual settlement date. During the time a TBA sale commitment is outstanding, equivalent deliverable securities or offsetting TBA purchase commitments, which are deliverable on or before the sale

Allspring Broad Market Core Bond ETF | 25

Notes to financial statements

commitment date, are held as “cover” for the transaction. Unsettled TBA sale commitments are valued at the current market value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described under “Securities valuation”. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. If the TBA sale commitment is closed through the acquisition of an offsetting purchase commitment, the Fund realizes a gain or loss. If the Fund delivers securities under the commitment, the Fund realizes a gain or a loss from the sale of the securities based upon the unit price established at the date the commitment was entered into.

Inflation-indexed bonds and TIPS

The Fund may invest in inflation-indexed bonds, including Treasury inflation-protected securities (TIPS). Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. If the index measuring inflation falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds (other than municipal inflation-indexed bonds and certain corporate inflation-indexed bonds) will be adjusted downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a smaller principal amount) will be reduced. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds. For bonds that do not provide a similar guarantee, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal. The value of inflation-indexed bonds is expected to change in response to changes in real interest rates. Real interest rates are tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. If nominal interest rates increase at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates may rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds, including TIPS, decline in value when real interest rates rise. In certain interest rate environments, such as when real interest rates are rising faster than nominal interest rates, inflation-indexed bonds may experience greater losses than other fixed income securities with similar durations.

Mortgage dollar roll transactions

The Fund may engage in mortgage dollar roll transactions through To Be Announced (TBA) mortgage-backed securities issued by Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC). In a mortgage dollar roll transaction, the Fund sells a mortgage-backed security to a financial institution, such as a bank or broker-dealer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a substantially similar security from the institution at a later date at an agreed upon price. The mortgage-backed securities that are repurchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by different pools of mortgages with different pre-payment histories. During the roll period, the Fund foregoes principal and interest paid on the securities. The Fund is compensated by the difference between the current sales price and the forward price for the future purchase as well as by the earnings on the cash proceeds of the initial sale. Mortgage dollar rolls may be renewed without physical delivery of the securities subject to the contract. The Fund accounts for TBA dollar roll transactions as purchases and sales which, as a result, may increase its portfolio turnover rate.

Security transactions and income recognition

Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are recorded on the basis of identified cost.

Interest income is accrued daily and bond discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized daily. To the extent debt obligations are placed on non-accrual status, any related interest income may be reduced by writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures and the fair value has decreased. If the issuer subsequently resumes interest payments or when the collectability of interest is reasonably assured, the debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status. Paydown gains and losses are included in interest income.

Interest earned on cash balances held at the custodian is recorded as interest income.

Distributions to shareholders

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and paid from net investment income monthly and any net realized gains are paid at least annually. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. GAAP. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital at year end.

Federal and other taxes

The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its investment company taxable and tax-exempt income and any net realized capital gains (after reduction for capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was required.

The Fund’s income and federal excise tax returns and all financial records supporting those returns for the fiscal years since commencement of operations are subject to examination by the federal and Delaware revenue authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

26 | Allspring Broad Market Core Bond ETF

Notes to financial statements

For financial reporting purposes, in-kind redemptions are treated as sales of securities resulting in realized capital gains or losses to the Fund. Because such gains or losses are not taxable to the Fund and are not distributed to existing Fund shareholders, the gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated net realized gain (loss) to paid-in capital at the end of the Fund’s tax year. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per share.

As of August 31, 2026, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $201,019,086 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:

Gross unrealized gains	$351,404
Gross unrealized losses	(3,264,029 )
Net unrealized losses	$(2,912,625 )

Reclassifications are made to the Fund’s capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under federal income tax regulations. U.S. GAAP require that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. The primary permanent differences causing such reclassifications are due to redemptions-in-kind and equalization payments. At August 31, 2026, as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences, the following reclassification adjustments were made on the Statement of assets and liabilities:

Paid-in capital	Total distributable loss
$777,326	$(777,326 )

Capital share transactions

The Fund issues and redeems its shares, at NAV, only in aggregations of a specified number of shares or multiples thereof (“Creation Units”). Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of the Fund are not redeemable. Transactions in capital shares for the Fund are disclosed in detail in the Statement of changes in net assets. The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of a Fund may be for cash or consist of the in-kind deposit of a designated portfolio of securities and a specified amount of cash. Authorized participants purchasing and redeeming Creation Units may pay a purchase transaction fee and a redemption transaction fee directly to the Trust and/or custodian, to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units, including Creation Units for cash. An additional variable fee may be charged for certain transactions. Such variable charges, if any, are included in “Proceeds from shares sold” and “Payments for shares redeemed” in the Statement of changes in net assets.

When an authorized participant fails to deliver one or more of the securities within a designated basket (in the case of a subscription), fails to deliver the Fund shares (in the case of a redemption), or is required by the Fund, prior to settlement, to accommodate the trading of foreign securities in local markets, the Fund may require the authorized participant to deliver and maintain cash collateral in accordance with the authorized participant agreement. In the event that the authorized participant fails to deliver all or a portion of the applicable deposit securities or Fund securities, the Fund may exercise control over such collateral pursuant to the agreement with the authorized participant in order to purchase the applicable securities.

3.FAIR VALUATION MEASUREMENTS

Fair value measurements of investments are determined within a framework that has established a fair value hierarchy based upon the various data inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. The three-level hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The Fund’s investments are classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs are summarized into three broad levels as follows:

•Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

•Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The Fund has entered into a separate agreement with each Trustee that converts indemnification rights currently existing under the Fund’s organizational documents into contractual rights that cannot be changed in the future without the consent of the Trustee. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts with service providers that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated.

10.OPERATING SEGMENTS

The Fund operates as a single operating segment. An operating segment is defined as a component of a public entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the public entity’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and has discrete financial information available. The President of the Fund acts as the Fund’s CODM. The CODM monitors the operating results of the Fund as a whole and the Fund’s long-term strategic asset allocation from which it derives its revenues is determined as outlined in the Fund’s prospectus which is executed by the Fund’s portfolio management team. The portfolio composition, total return and expense ratios, and the components of total increase/decrease in net assets are used by the CODM to assess the segment’s performance and to make resource allocation decisions for the Fund’s single segment. This information is consistent with that presented within the Fund’s financial statements. Segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Statement of assets and liabilities as “total assets” and significant segment revenue and expenses are listed on the accompanying Statement of operations.

To the Shareholders of the Fund and Board of Trustees
Allspring Exchange-Traded Funds Trust:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Allspring Broad Market Core Bond ETF (the Fund), a series of Allspring Exchange-Traded Funds Trust, including the portfolio of investments, as of August 31, 2026, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for the year then ended and the period from December 4, 2024 (commencement of operations) to August 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively, the financial statements) and the financial highlights for the year then ended and the period from December 4, 2024 to August 31, 2025. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of August 31, 2026, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for the year then ended and the period from December 4, 2024 to August 31, 2025, and the financial highlights for the year then ended and the period from December 4, 2024 to August 31, 2025, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Such procedures also included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2026, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have not been able to determine the specific year that we began serving as the auditor of one or more Allspring Funds investment companies; however, we are aware that we have served as the auditor of one or more Allspring Funds investment companies since at least 1955.

Item 11. Statement regarding basis for the board’s approval of investment advisory contract

Board consideration of investment management and sub-advisory agreements:

Under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Allspring Exchange-Traded Funds Trust (the “Trust”) must determine annually whether to approve the continuation of the Trust’s investment management and sub-advisory agreements. In this regard, at a Board meeting held on May 18-20, 2026 (the “Meeting”), the Board, all the members of which have no direct or indirect interest in the investment management and sub-advisory agreements and are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), reviewed and approved for the Allspring Broad Market Core Bond ETF (the “ETF”): (i) an investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Allspring Funds Management, LLC (“Allspring Funds Management”); and (ii) an investment sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) with Galliard Capital Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), an affiliate of Allspring Funds Management. The Management Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Advisory Agreements.”

At the Meeting, the Board considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the selection of Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser and the approval of the Advisory Agreements. Prior to the Meeting, including at a meeting of the Board held in April 2026, and at the Meeting, the Trustees conferred extensively among themselves and with representatives of Allspring Funds Management about these matters. The Board has adopted a team-based approach, with each team consisting of a sub-set of Trustees, to assist the full Board in the discharge of its duties in reviewing investment performance and other matters throughout the year. The Independent Trustees were assisted in their evaluation of the Advisory Agreements by independent legal counsel, from whom they received separate legal advice and with whom they met separately. The Board noted that the ETF commenced operations in December 2024 and has a limited operating history.

In providing information to the Board, Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser were guided by a detailed set of requests for information submitted to them by independent legal counsel on behalf of the Independent Trustees at the start of the Board’s annual contract renewal process earlier in 2026. In considering and approving the Advisory Agreements, the Trustees considered the information they believed relevant, including but not limited to the information discussed below. The Board considered not only the specific information presented in connection with the Meeting, but also the knowledge gained over time through interactions with Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser about various topics. In this regard, the Board reviewed reports of Allspring Funds Management at each of its quarterly meetings, which included, among other things, portfolio reviews and investment performance reports. In addition, the Board and the teams mentioned above conferred with portfolio managers at various times throughout the year. The Board did not identify any particular information or consideration that was all-important or controlling, and each individual Trustee may have attributed different weights to various factors.

After its deliberations, the Board unanimously determined that the compensation payable to Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser under each of the Advisory Agreements was reasonable, and approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for a one-year term. The Board considered the approval of the Advisory Agreements for the ETF as part of its consideration of agreements for funds across the complex, but its approvals were made on a fund-by-fund basis. The following summarizes a number of important, but not necessarily all, factors considered by the Board in support of its approvals.

Nature, extent, and quality of services

The Board received and considered various information regarding the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the ETF by Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser under the Advisory Agreements. This information included a description of the investment advisory services covered by the Management Agreement, as well as, among other things, a summary of the background and experience of senior management of Allspring Global Investments, of which Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser are a part, recent changes in such senior management, and a summary of investments made in the Allspring Global Investments business.* The Board considered the resources devoted by Allspring Funds Management in developing and maintaining the infrastructure necessary to support the ongoing operations of the ETF. In addition, the Board received and considered information about the full range of services provided to the ETF by Allspring Funds Management and its affiliates, including the Sub-Adviser.

The Board considered the qualifications, background, tenure, and responsibilities of each of the portfolio managers primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the ETF. The Board evaluated the ability of Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser to attract and retain qualified investment professionals, including research, advisory, and supervisory personnel.

The Board further considered the compliance programs and compliance records of Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser. The Board received and considered information about Allspring Global Investments’ risk management functions, which included information about Allspring Funds Management’s and the Sub-Adviser’s business continuity plan and Allspring Global Investments’ business resiliency and disaster recovery plans, their

The trade name for the asset management firm that includes Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser is “Allspring Global Investments.”

approaches to data privacy and cybersecurity, and Allspring Funds Management’s role as administrator of the ETF’s liquidity risk management program and as the ETF’s valuation designee. The Board also received and considered information about Allspring Funds Management’s derivatives and investment risk management oversight services, and its intermediary and vendor oversight program.

ETF investment performance and expenses

The Board noted that the ETF had only one year of performance history to review. The Board considered the investment performance results for the ETF over the one-year period ended December 31, 2025. The Board considered these results in comparison to the investment performance of funds in a universe that was determined by Broadridge Inc. (“Broadridge”) to be similar to the ETF (the “Universe”), and in comparison to the ETF’s benchmark index and to other comparative data. Broadridge is an independent provider of investment company data. The Board received a description of the methodology used by Broadridge to select the funds in the performance Universe. The Board noted that the investment performance of the ETF was higher than the average investment performance of the Universe for the one-year period under review. The Board also noted that the investment performance of the ETF was higher than the investment performance of its benchmark index, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, for the one-year period under review. The Board further noted that it would have the opportunity to review the ETF’s performance over longer periods in connection with future reviews and approvals of the ETF’s Advisory Agreements.

The Board also received and considered information regarding the ETF’s net operating expense ratio. The Board noted that, due to the ETF’s unitary management fee structure, the ETF’s net operating expense ratio was equal to the ETF’s unitary management fee. The Board considered the ETF’s net operating expense ratio in comparison to the median ratio of funds in an expense group that was determined by Broadridge to be similar to the ETF (the “Group”). The Board received a description of the methodology used by Broadridge to select the funds in the expense Group and an explanation of how funds comprising the expense Group and their expense ratios may vary from year-to-year. Based on the Broadridge reports, the Board noted that the net operating expense ratio of the ETF was lower than the median net operating expense ratio of the expense Group.

The Board took into account the ETF’s expense information provided to it among the factors considered in deciding to re-approve the Advisory Agreements.

Investment management and sub-advisory fee rates

The Board reviewed and considered the unitary management fee rate payable by the ETF to Allspring Funds Management under the Management Agreement, under which Allspring Funds Management pays all ETF expenses, other than the contractual management fee and certain other expenses. Because of the ETF’s “unitary fee” structure, the Board recognized that while Allspring Funds Management bears the risk that ETF expenses may increase over time, it is possible that Allspring Funds Management may benefit from any price decreases in third-party services paid under the Management Agreement.

Among other information reviewed by the Board was a comparison of the ETF’s unitary management fee with the median management fee paid by funds in the expense Group. The Board noted that the ETF’s unitary management fee was lower than the average management fee for the expense Group.

The Board also received and considered information about the portion of the unitary management fee that was retained by Allspring Funds Management after payment of the fee to the Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services. In assessing the reasonableness of this amount, the Board received and evaluated information about the nature and extent of responsibilities retained and risks assumed by Allspring Funds Management and not delegated to or assumed by the Sub-Adviser, and about Allspring Funds Management’s on-going oversight services. Given the affiliation between Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser, the Board ascribed limited relevance to the allocation of fees between them.

The Board also received and considered information about the nature and extent of services offered and fee rates charged by Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser to other types of clients with investment strategies similar to those of the ETF. In this regard, the Board received information about the differences between an exchange-traded fund and other types of products, including mutual funds.

Based on its consideration of the factors and information it deemed relevant, including those described here, the Board determined that the compensation payable to Allspring Funds Management under the Management Agreement and to the Sub-Adviser under the Sub-Advisory Agreement was reasonable.

Profitability

The Board received and considered information concerning the profitability of Allspring Funds Management, as well as the profitability of Allspring Global Investments, from providing services to the fund complex as a whole. The Board noted that the Sub-Adviser’s profitability information with respect to providing services to the ETF was subsumed in the Allspring Global Investments profitability analysis.

Allspring Funds Management reported on the methodologies and estimates used in calculating profitability, including a description of the methodology used to allocate certain expenses. Among other things, the Board noted that the levels of profitability reported on a fund-by-fund basis varied widely, depending on factors such as the size, type, asset class, and age of a fund.

Other information (unaudited)

Based on its review, the Board did not deem the profits reported by Allspring Funds Management or Allspring Global Investments to be at a level that would prevent it from approving the continuation of the Advisory Agreements.

Economies of scale

The Board received and considered information about the potential for Allspring Funds Management to experience economies of scale in the provision of management services to the ETF, the difficulties of isolating and quantifying economies of scale at an individual fund level, and the extent to which potential scale benefits are shared with ETF shareholders.

The Board noted that the ETF’s unitary management fee does not include breakpoints or expense caps because, like many other actively-managed exchange-traded funds, the unitary fee levels already share potential economies of scale, as the unitary management fee is fixed at a competitive level and will not increase in the future even if the ETF’s operating costs rise and the ETF does not reach scale.

The Board considered that, in addition to the unitary management fee, Allspring Funds Management shares potential economies of scale from its management business in a variety of ways, including through investments in the business intended to enhance services available to the ETF and shareholders.

The Board concluded that Allspring Funds Management’s arrangements with respect to the ETF constituted a reasonable approach to sharing potential economies of scale with the ETF and its shareholders.

Other benefits to Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser

The Board received and considered information regarding potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits received by Allspring Funds Management and its affiliates, including the Sub-Adviser, as a result of their relationships with the ETF. Ancillary benefits could include, among others, benefits directly attributable to other relationships with the ETF and benefits potentially derived from an increase in Allspring Funds Management’s and the Sub-Adviser’s business as a result of their relationships with the ETF. The Board also considered the potential increase in the overall size of Allspring Funds Management’s relationships with the ETF’s authorized participants and lead market makers, which could potentially benefit Allspring Funds Management’s reputation with such firms.

Based on its consideration of the factors and information it deemed relevant, including those described here, the Board did not find that any ancillary benefits received by Allspring Funds Management and its affiliates, including the Sub-Adviser, were unreasonable.

Conclusion

At the Meeting, after considering the above-described factors and based on its deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board unanimously determined that the compensation payable to Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Adviser under each of the Advisory Agreements was reasonable, and approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for a one-year term.

Notes to financial statements

1.ORGANIZATION

Allspring Exchange-Traded Funds Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust organized on June 19, 2014, is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Allspring Core Plus ETF (the “Fund”) which is a diversified series of the Trust.

2.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Securities valuation

Equity securities, exchange-traded funds and futures contracts that are listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market are valued at the official closing price or, if none, the last sales price.

The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at rates provided by an independent foreign currency pricing source at a time each business day specified by the Valuation Committee at Allspring Funds Management, LLC (“Allspring Funds Management”).

Forward foreign currency contracts are recorded at the forward rate provided by an independent foreign currency pricing source at a time each business day specified by the Valuation Committee at Allspring Funds Management.

Swap contracts are valued at the evaluated price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.

Investments in registered open-end investment companies (other than those listed on a foreign or domestic exchange or market) are valued at net asset value (“NAV”).

Investments which are not valued using the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by Allspring Funds Management, which was named the valuation designee by the Board of Trustees. As the valuation designee, Allspring Funds Management is responsible for day-to-day valuation activities for the Allspring Funds. In connection with these responsibilities, Allspring Funds Management has established a Valuation Committee and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports of valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee. On at least an annual basis, the Board of Trustees receives an assessment of the adequacy and effectiveness of Allspring Funds Management’s process for determining the fair value of the portfolio of investments.

Foreign currency translation

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at rates provided by an independent foreign currency pricing source at a time each business day specified by the Valuation Committee. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and expenses are converted at the rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually paid or received. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities resulting from changes in exchange rates. The changes in net assets arising from changes in exchange rates of securities and the changes in net assets resulting from changes in market prices of securities are not separately presented. Such changes are included in net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

When-issued transactions

Allspring Core Plus ETF | 27

Notes to financial statements

Loans

The Fund may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owed to lenders by corporate or other borrowers. The loans pay interest at rates which are periodically reset by reference to a base lending rate plus a spread. Investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. When the Fund purchases participations, it generally has no rights to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Fund assumes the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the participation. When the Fund purchases assignments from lenders, it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan and may enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement. Loans may include fully funded term loans or unfunded loan commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding. Unfunded loan commitments represent the remaining obligation of the Fund to the borrower. At any point in time, up to the maturity date of the issue, the borrower may demand the unfunded portion. Unfunded amounts, if any, are marked to market and any unrealized gains or losses are recorded in the Statement of assets and liabilities.

Forward foreign currency contracts

A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund enters into forward foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities and to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. Forward foreign currency contracts are recorded at the forward rate and marked-to-market daily. When the contracts are closed, realized gains and losses arising from such transactions are recorded as realized gains or losses on forward foreign currency contracts. The Fund is subject to foreign currency risk and may be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the unrealized gains on the contracts. This risk may be mitigated if there is a master netting arrangement between the Fund and the counterparty.

Futures contracts

Swap contracts

Swap contracts are agreements between the Fund and a counterparty to exchange a series of cash flows over a specified period. Swap agreements are privately negotiated contracts between the Fund that are entered into as bilateral contracts in the over-the-counter market or centrally cleared (“centrally cleared swaps”) with a central clearinghouse.

The Fund entered into centrally cleared swaps. In a centrally cleared swap, immediately following execution of the swap contract, the swap contract is novated to a central counterparty (the “CCP”) and the Fund’s counterparty on the swap agreement becomes the CCP. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, the Fund is required to deposit an initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities. Securities deposited as initial margin are designated in the Portfolio of investments and cash deposited is shown as cash segregated for centrally cleared swaps in the Statement of assets and liabilities. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in market value of the contract (“variation margin”). The variation margin is recorded as an unrealized gain (or loss) and shown as variation margin receivable (or payable) on centrally cleared swaps in the Statement of assets and liabilities. Payments received from (paid to) the counterparty are recorded as realized gains (losses) in the Statement of operations when the contract is closed.

Credit default swaps
The Fund may enter into credit default swaps for hedging or speculative purposes to provide or receive a measure of protection against default on a referenced entity, obligation or index or a basket of single-name issuers or traded indexes. An index credit default swap references all the names in the index, and if a credit event is triggered, the credit event is settled based on that name’s weight in the index. Credit default swaps are agreements in which the protection buyer pays fixed periodic payments to the protection seller in consideration for a promise from the protection seller to make a specific payment should a negative credit event take place with respect to the referenced entity (e.g., bankruptcy, failure to pay, obligation acceleration, repudiation, moratorium or restructuring).

28 | Allspring Core Plus ETF

Notes to financial statements

The Fund may enter into credit default swaps as either the seller of protection or the buyer of protection. If the Fund is the buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, the Fund will either receive from the seller an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced security or underlying securities comprising the index, or receive a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising the index. If the Fund is the seller of protection and a credit event occurs, the Fund will either pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced security or underlying securities comprising the index or pay a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising the index.

As the seller of protection, the Fund is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap and has assumed the risk of default of the underlying security or index. As the buyer of protection, the Fund could be exposed to risks if the seller of the protection defaults on its obligation to perform, or if there are unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates.

By entering into credit default swap contracts, the Fund is exposed to credit risk. In addition, certain credit default swap contracts entered into by the Fund provide for conditions that result in events of default or termination that enable the counterparty to the agreement to cause an early termination of the transactions under those agreements.

Mortgage dollar roll transactions

Security transactions and income recognition

Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are recorded on the basis of identified cost.

Income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is not assured.

Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date.

Interest earned on cash balances held at the custodian is recorded as interest income.

Income dividends and capital gain distributions from investment companies are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Capital gain distributions from investment companies are treated as realized gains.

Distributions to shareholders

Federal and other taxes

Allspring Core Plus ETF | 29

Notes to financial statements

As of August 31, 2026, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $440,995,635 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:

Gross unrealized gains	$1,534,185
Gross unrealized losses	(8,398,799 )
Net unrealized losses	$(6,864,614 )

Reclassifications are made to the Fund’s capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under federal income tax regulations. U.S. GAAP require that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. The primary difference causing such reclassification is due to redemptions in-kind. At August 31, 2026, as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences, the following reclassification adjustments were made on the Statement of assets and liabilities:

Paid-in capital	Total distributable loss
$1,051,404	$(1,051,404 )

As of August 31, 2026, the Fund had current year deferred post-October capital losses consisting of $3,636,369 in short-term losses and $1,464,776 in long-term losses which will be recognized on the first day of the following fiscal year.

For certain types of derivative transactions, the Fund has entered into International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements (“ISDA Master Agreements”) or similar agreements with approved counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements may have requirements to deliver/deposit securities or cash to/with an exchange or broker-dealer as collateral and allows the Fund to offset, with each counterparty, certain derivative financial instrument’s assets and/or liabilities with collateral held or pledged. Collateral requirements differ by type of derivative. Collateral or margin requirements are set by the broker or exchange clearinghouse for exchange traded derivatives while collateral terms are contract specific for over-the-counter traded derivatives. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Fund under ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements, if any, are reported separately in the Statement of assets and liabilities. Securities pledged as collateral, if any, are noted in the Portfolio of investments. With respect to balance sheet offsetting, absent an event of default by the counterparty or a termination of the agreement, the reported amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities in the Statement of assets and liabilities are not offset across transactions between the Fund and the applicable counterparty. A reconciliation of the gross amounts on the Statement of assets and liabilities to the net amounts by counterparty, including any collateral exposure, for OTC derivatives is as follows:

Counterparty	Gross amounts of assets in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities	Amounts subject to netting agreements	Collateral received	Net amount of assets
Bank of New York Mellon Corp.	$6,847	$(6,847 )	$0	$0
Morgan Stanley, Inc.	114,055	(114,055 )	0	0

Report of independent registered public accounting firm

To the Shareholders of the Fund and Board of Trustees
Allspring Exchange-Traded Funds Trust:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Allspring Core Plus ETF (the Fund), a series of Allspring Exchange-Traded Funds Trust, including the portfolio of investments, as of August 31, 2026, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for the year then ended and the period from December 4, 2024 (commencement of operations) to August 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively, the financial statements) and the financial highlights for the year then ended and the period from December 4, 2024 to August 31, 2025. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of August 31, 2026, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for the year then ended and the period from December 4, 2024 to August 31, 2025, and the financial highlights for the year then ended and the period from December 4, 2024 to August 31, 2025, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Such procedures also included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2026, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent, agent banks and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Item 11. Statement regarding basis for the board’s approval of investment advisory contract

Board consideration of investment management and sub-advisory agreements:

Under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Allspring Exchange-Traded Funds Trust (the “Trust”) must determine annually whether to approve the continuation of the Trust’s investment management and sub-advisory agreements. In this regard, at a Board meeting held on May 18-20, 2026 (the “Meeting”), the Board, all the members of which have no direct or indirect interest in the investment management and sub-advisory agreements and are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), reviewed and approved for the Allspring Core Plus ETF (the “ETF”): (i) an investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Allspring Funds Management, LLC (“Allspring Funds Management”); (ii) an investment sub-advisory agreement with Allspring Global Investments, LLC (“AGI”), an affiliate of Allspring Funds Management; and (iii) an investment sub-advisory agreement with Allspring Global Investments (UK) Limited (“AGI UK,” and together with AGI, the “Sub-Advisers,” and the sub-advisory agreements with each of the Sub-Advisers, the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”), an affiliate of Allspring Funds Management. The Management Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreements are collectively referred to as the “Advisory Agreements.”

At the Meeting, the Board considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the selection of Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers and the approval of the Advisory Agreements. Prior to the Meeting, including at a meeting of the Board held in April 2026, and at the Meeting, the Trustees conferred extensively among themselves and with representatives of Allspring Funds Management about these matters. The Board has adopted a team-based approach, with each team consisting of a sub-set of Trustees, to assist the full Board in the discharge of its duties in reviewing investment performance and other matters throughout the year. The Independent Trustees were assisted in their evaluation of the Advisory Agreements by independent legal counsel, from whom they received separate legal advice and with whom they met separately. The Board noted that the ETF commenced operations in December 2024 and has a limited operating history.

In providing information to the Board, Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers were guided by a detailed set of requests for information submitted to them by independent legal counsel on behalf of the Independent Trustees at the start of the Board’s annual contract renewal process earlier in 2026. In considering and approving the Advisory Agreements, the Trustees considered the information they believed relevant, including but not limited to the information discussed below. The Board considered not only the specific information presented in connection with the Meeting, but also the knowledge gained over time through interactions with Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers about various topics. In this regard, the Board reviewed reports of Allspring Funds Management at each of its quarterly meetings, which included, among other things, portfolio reviews and investment performance reports. In addition, the Board and the teams mentioned above conferred with portfolio managers at various times throughout the year. The Board did not identify any particular information or consideration that was all-important or controlling, and each individual Trustee may have attributed different weights to various factors.

After its deliberations, the Board unanimously determined that the compensation payable to Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers under each of the Advisory Agreements was reasonable, and approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for a one-year term. The Board considered the approval of the Advisory Agreements for the ETF as part of its consideration of agreements for funds across the complex, but its approvals were made on a fund-by-fund basis. The following summarizes a number of important, but not necessarily all, factors considered by the Board in support of its approvals.

Nature, extent, and quality of services

The Board received and considered various information regarding the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the ETF by Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers under the Advisory Agreements. This information included a description of the investment advisory services covered by the Management Agreement, as well as, among other things, a summary of the background and experience of senior management of Allspring Global Investments, of which Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers are a part, recent changes in such senior management, and a summary of investments made in the Allspring Global Investments business.* The Board considered the resources devoted by Allspring Funds Management in developing and maintaining the infrastructure necessary to support the ongoing operations of the ETF. In addition, the Board received and considered information about the full range of services provided to the ETF by Allspring Funds Management and its affiliates, including the Sub-Advisers. The Board noted that AGI UK was added as a sub-adviser to the Fund in 2025.

The Board considered the qualifications, background, tenure, and responsibilities of each of the portfolio managers primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the ETF. The Board evaluated the ability of Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers to attract and retain qualified investment professionals, including research, advisory, and supervisory personnel.

The trade name for the asset management firm that includes Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers is “Allspring Global Investments.”

Other information (unaudited)

The Board further considered the compliance programs and compliance records of Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers. The Board received and considered information about Allspring Global Investments’ risk management functions, which included information about Allspring Funds Management’s and the Sub-Advisers’ business continuity plan and Allspring Global Investments’ business resiliency and disaster recovery plans, their approaches to data privacy and cybersecurity, and Allspring Funds Management’s role as administrator of the ETF’s liquidity risk management program and as the ETF’s valuation designee. The Board also received and considered information about Allspring Funds Management’s derivatives and investment risk management oversight services, and its intermediary and vendor oversight program.

ETF investment performance and expenses

The Board noted that the ETF had only one year of performance history to review. The Board considered the investment performance results for the ETF over the one-year period ended December 31, 2025. The Board considered these results in comparison to the investment performance of funds in a universe that was determined by Broadridge Inc. (“Broadridge”) to be similar to the ETF (the “Universe”), and in comparison to the ETF’s benchmark index and to other comparative data. Broadridge is an independent provider of investment company data. The Board received a description of the methodology used by Broadridge to select the funds in the performance Universe. The Board noted that the investment performance of the ETF was in range of the average investment performance of the Universe for the one-year period under review. The Board also noted that the investment performance of the ETF was higher than the investment performance of its benchmark index, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, for the one-year period under review. The Board further noted that it would have the opportunity to review the ETF’s performance over longer periods in connection with future reviews and approvals of the ETF’s Advisory Agreements.

The Board took into account the ETF’s expense information provided to it among the factors considered in deciding to re-approve the Advisory Agreements.

Investment management and sub-advisory fee rates

The Board also received and considered information about the portion of the unitary management fee that was retained by Allspring Funds Management after payment of the fee to the Sub-Advisers for sub-advisory services. In assessing the reasonableness of this amount, the Board received and evaluated information about the nature and extent of responsibilities retained and risks assumed by Allspring Funds Management and not delegated to or assumed by the Sub-Advisers, and about Allspring Funds Management’s on-going oversight services. Given the affiliation between Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers, the Board ascribed limited relevance to the allocation of fees between them.

The Board also received and considered information about the nature and extent of services offered and fee rates charged by Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers to other types of clients with investment strategies similar to those of the ETF. In this regard, the Board received information about the differences between an exchange-traded fund and other types of products, including mutual funds. The Board noted that the ETF has a substantially similar investment strategy to the Allspring Core Plus Bond Fund, a mutual fund offered by Allspring Global Investments (the “Mutual Fund”), and that the ETF’s unitary fee rate is lower than the Mutual Fund’s management fee rate. The Board considered the expense group prepared by Broadridge in assessing the unitary fee rate of the ETF relative to its peers, and assessed the management fee of the Mutual Fund relative to the Broadridge expense group for the Mutual Fund’s peers. The Board also considered that the unitary fee rate for the ETF reflects market dynamics for exchange-traded funds relative to mutual funds, including the competitive pricing necessary for an exchange-traded fund to attract investors, and that the management fee of the Mutual Fund and the unitary fee of the ETF should be considered in light of the differing market dynamics and competitive factors relevant to each of the Mutual Fund and the ETF, respectively. Additionally, the Board considered that exchange-traded funds and the ecosystem in which they operate have various fundamental structural, service, and market differences from mutual funds, including that exchange-traded funds operate in both a primary and secondary market.

Profitability

The Board received and considered information concerning the profitability of Allspring Funds Management, as well as the profitability of Allspring Global Investments, from providing services to the fund complex as a whole. The Board noted that the Sub-Advisers’ profitability information with respect to providing services to the ETF was subsumed in the Allspring Global Investments profitability analysis.

Economies of scale

Other benefits to Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers

The Board received and considered information regarding potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits received by Allspring Funds Management and its affiliates, including the Sub-Advisers, as a result of their relationships with the ETF. Ancillary benefits could include, among others, benefits directly attributable to other relationships with the ETF and benefits potentially derived from an increase in Allspring Funds Management’s and the Sub-Advisers’ business as a result of their relationships with the ETF. The Board also considered the potential increase in the overall size of Allspring Funds Management’s relationships with the ETF’s authorized participants and lead market makers, which could potentially benefit Allspring Funds Management’s reputation with such firms.

Conclusion

At the Meeting, after considering the above-described factors and based on its deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board unanimously determined that the compensation payable to Allspring Funds Management and the Sub-Advisers under each of the Advisory Agreements was reasonable, and approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for a one-year term.
