How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Global equities broadly gained, supported by resilient corporate earnings, technology sector strength and generally firm economic activity. Rising bond yields, inflation concerns and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East tempered investor sentiment. Emerging markets stocks outperformed developed markets stocks overall.

Top Contributors to Performance:

  • Relative to the MSCI All Country World Index Investable Market Index (Net, USD, 50% Non-US Developed Hedged to USD), the Fund’s strategic and dynamic equity overweights across various regions and market capitalizations helped it capture gains as global equities advanced during the Period.

  • The Fund’s strategic allocations to the equity and commodity volatility selling strategies contributed positively. The equity volatility selling strategy seeks to capture the volatility risk premium through systematic option-selling in equity markets. The commodity volatility selling strategy, which is the systematic sale of insurance against large movements in commodity prices, seeks to benefit from the difference between implied volatility and realized volatility.

Top Detractors from Performance:

  • The Fund’s strategic allocation to the macro hedging strategy, which is used in an attempt to diversify the Fund’s overall exposure to global equity asset classes, detracted from relative returns as bond yields rose during the Period.

  • Currency options within the Fund’s currency tail risk hedging strategy, which seeks to limit the chance of a loss occurring due to a rare event, detracted from relative performance, as most of the options expired out of the money.

Material Fund Changes 

This is a summary of certain changes to the Fund for the Period. For more complete information, you may review the Fund's next prospectus, which we expect to be available by December 29, 2026 at dfinview.com/GoldmanSachs or upon request at 1-800-621-2550.

 

The Fund changed its principal investment strategy to enable the Fund to invest in volatility index derivatives and to authorize the Fund to invest in a wholly owned subsidiary, through which the Fund will seek to gain exposure to volatility index derivatives and may also seek to gain exposure to commodities markets through investments in commodity-linked derivatives.

As part of these changes, the Fund revised its principal investment risks to reflect commodity sector risk, subsidiary risk, and tax risk.

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Global equities broadly gained, supported by resilient corporate earnings, technology sector strength and generally firm economic activity. Rising bond yields, inflation concerns and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East tempered investor sentiment. Emerging markets stocks outperformed developed markets stocks overall.

Top Contributors to Performance:

  • Relative to the MSCI All Country World Index Investable Market Index (Net, USD, 50% Non-US Developed Hedged to USD), the Fund’s strategic and dynamic equity overweights across various regions and market capitalizations helped it capture gains as global equities advanced during the Period.

  • The Fund’s strategic allocations to the equity and commodity volatility selling strategies contributed positively. The equity volatility selling strategy seeks to capture the volatility risk premium through systematic option-selling in equity markets. The commodity volatility selling strategy, which is the systematic sale of insurance against large movements in commodity prices, seeks to benefit from the difference between implied volatility and realized volatility.

Top Detractors from Performance:

  • The Fund’s strategic allocation to the macro hedging strategy, which is used in an attempt to diversify the Fund’s overall exposure to global equity asset classes, detracted from relative returns as bond yields rose during the Period.

  • Currency options within the Fund’s currency tail risk hedging strategy, which seeks to limit the chance of a loss occurring due to a rare event, detracted from relative performance, as most of the options expired out of the money.

Material Fund Changes 

This is a summary of certain changes to the Fund for the Period. For more complete information, you may review the Fund's next prospectus, which we expect to be available by December 29, 2026 at dfinview.com/GoldmanSachs or upon request at 1-800-526-7384.

 

The Fund changed its principal investment strategy to enable the Fund to invest in volatility index derivatives and to authorize the Fund to invest in a wholly owned subsidiary, through which the Fund will seek to gain exposure to volatility index derivatives and may also seek to gain exposure to commodities markets through investments in commodity-linked derivatives.

As part of these changes, the Fund revised its principal investment risks to reflect commodity sector risk, subsidiary risk, and tax risk.

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

U.S. equities delivered strong gains, supported by resilient corporate earnings, solid labor market data and expanding artificial intelligence infrastructure. U.S. fixed income performance was generally positive, shaped most by a significant shift in Federal Reserve monetary policy and a volatile macroeconomic backdrop.

Top Contributors to Performance:

  • Three factors—Equity, Flow and Volatility—within the Strategic Factor Allocation process added to the Fund’s positive absolute performance. The Strategic Factor Allocation process is derived from the Goldman Sachs Investment Strategy Group’s (“ISG”) market views on a variety of asset classes and instruments. The factors are academically derived drivers of investment returns that the Goldman Sachs ISG believes offer the potential for greater and consistent returns in various market environments.

  • Relative to the Fund’s blended benchmark, the Strategic Factor Allocation Composite IndexFootnote Reference1, the Fund was helped by the implementation of the Strategic Factor Allocation process, including the Equity, Flow and Volatility factors.

Top Detractors from Performance:

  • In both absolute and relative terms, the Term factor detracted from the Fund’s performance.

*Asset class exposure includes the impact of derivatives. "Gross Exposure" represents the sum of the absolute value of long and short notional contract values in U.S. dollars of the Fund's positions (for a given asset class), divided by the Fund's net assets exposure within each asset class. "Net Exposure" represents the net exposure within the Fund to a given asset class, calculated as the difference between long and short exposures.  The exposure of option contracts is delta-adjusted. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts for individual currency crosses are aggregated by settlement date and counterparty in the determination of gross exposure.  Fixed income exposures are duration-adjusted to the 10-year reference rate of each respective country. "Short-term Investments” includes U.S. Treasuries and other short-term investments, including money market funds, repurchase agreements, cash and time deposits.

Top Contributors to Performance:

  • The Strategic Volatility Premium, which is an implementation of the Goldman Sachs Investment Strategy Group’s market views on a variety of asset classes and instruments, produced positive absolute returns and added to the Fund’s performance versus its benchmark, the Bloomberg 1-5 Year U.S. Treasury Index.

  • The Fund’s fixed income allocation to U.S. Treasury securities added to relative returns.

  • The options-based overlay strategy, through which the Strategic Volatility Premium is implemented, contributed positively to the Fund’s relative performance.

Top Detractors from Performance:

  • There were no detractors from the Fund’s relative performance during the Period.

*Asset class exposure includes the impact of derivatives. "Gross Exposure" represents the sum of the absolute value of long and short notional contract values in U.S. dollars of the Fund's positions (for a given asset class), divided by the Fund's net assets exposure within each asset class. "Net Exposure" represents the net exposure within the Fund to a given asset class, calculated as the difference between long and short exposures. The exposure of option contracts is delta-adjusted. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts for individual currency crosses are aggregated by settlement date and counterparty in the determination of gross exposure. Fixed income exposures are duration-adjusted to the 10-year reference rate of each respective country. "Short-term Investments” includes U.S. Treasuries and other short-term investments, including money market funds, repurchase agreements, cash and time deposits.

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Risk assets proved resilient despite geopolitical shocks, persistent inflation and shifting monetary policy expectations. Solid corporate earnings, economic activity and technology sector strength supported equities. Commodities fluctuated amid energy price volatility, while inflation concerns pushed up bond yields.

Top Contributors to Performance:

  • The Fund’s active cash management strategy, implemented mainly through investments in commercial paper, contributed positively to the Fund’s performance versus the ICE BofA 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index.

  • The Fund’s positioning in health care stocks, especially in the U.S. and Europe, added to relative returns, as many of these stocks rebounded from previous losses.

  • Select investments in Mexican and South African equities, as well as the Fund’s exposure to uranium, bolstered relative performance.

  • The sale of put options, especially those on S&P North American Expanded Technology Software Index stocks, EURO STOXX Banks Index stocks, KOSPI 200 Index stocks and TOPIX stocks, added to the Fund’s returns. The Fund benefited from the premiums it earned from writing these puts, which also gave it exposure to select equity markets and sectors amid heightened equity market volatility.

  • The Fund’s use of equity futures and ETFs within the trend-based rotation tilt, through which the Fund gained exposure to momentum-based trends among multiple asset classes/markets, added modestly to relative performance.

  • During the Period, the Fund exited its positions in five-year British interest rate swaps and added an allocation to three- to five-year U.K. government bonds. Both these tactical decisions contributed positively to relative returns.

Top Detractors from Performance:

  • Detracting from the Fund’s relative performance was its position in bond futures, used to include exposure similar to that of the Bloomberg U.S. Intermediate Treasury Bond Index, as yields rose during the Period.

  • A position in Indian equity futures detracted from performance.

Footnote Description
Footnote*
Tilts exposure includes the impact of derivatives. "Gross Exposure" represents the sum of the absolute value of long and short notional contract values in U.S. dollars of the Fund's positions (for a tilt exposure), divided by the Fund's total net assets. "Net Exposure" represents the net exposure within the Fund to a given tilt position, calculated as the difference between long and short exposures. The exposure of option contracts is delta-adjusted. Fixed income exposures are duration-adjusted to the 10-year reference rate of each respective country.

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Risk assets proved resilient despite geopolitical shocks, persistent inflation and shifting monetary policy expectations. Solid corporate earnings, economic activity and technology sector strength supported equities. Commodities fluctuated amid energy price volatility, while inflation concerns pushed up bond yields.

Top Contributors to Performance:

  • The Fund’s active cash management strategy, implemented mainly through investments in commercial paper, contributed positively to the Fund’s performance versus the ICE BofA 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index.

  • The Fund’s positioning in health care stocks, especially in the U.S. and Europe, added to relative returns, as many of these stocks rebounded from previous losses.

  • Select investments in Mexican and South African equities, as well as the Fund’s exposure to uranium, bolstered relative performance.

  • The sale of put options, especially those on S&P North American Expanded Technology Software Index stocks, EURO STOXX Banks Index stocks, KOSPI 200 Index stocks and TOPIX stocks, added to the Fund’s returns. The Fund benefited from the premiums it earned from writing these puts, which also gave it exposure to select equity markets and sectors amid heightened equity market volatility.

  • The Fund’s use of equity futures and ETFs within the trend-based rotation tilt, through which the Fund gained exposure to momentum-based trends among multiple asset classes/markets, added modestly to relative performance.

  • During the Period, the Fund exited its positions in five-year British interest rate swaps and added an allocation to three- to five-year U.K. government bonds. Both these tactical decisions contributed positively to relative returns.

Top Detractors from Performance:

  • Detracting from the Fund’s relative performance was its position in bond futures, used to include exposure similar to that of the Bloomberg U.S. Intermediate Treasury Bond Index, as yields rose during the Period.

  • A position in Indian equity futures detracted from performance.

Item 4(e)(1) — Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Services Provided to the Funds of the Goldman Sachs Trust. The Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the “Policy”) adopted by the Audit Committee of Goldman Sachs Trust (“GST”) sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which services performed by an independent auditor for GST may be pre-approved. Services may be pre-approved specifically by the Audit Committee as a whole or, in certain circumstances, by the Audit Committee Chairman or the person designated as the Audit Committee Financial Expert. In addition, subject to specified cost limitations, certain services may be pre-approved under the provisions of the Policy. The Policy provides that the Audit Committee will consider whether the services provided by an independent auditor are consistent with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules on auditor independence. The Policy provides for periodic review and pre-approval by the Audit Committee of the services that may be provided by the independent auditor.

De Minimis Waiver. The pre-approval requirements of the Policy may be waived with respect to the provision of non-audit services that are permissible for an independent auditor to perform, provided (1) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than five percent of the total amount of revenues subject to pre-approval that was paid to the independent auditors during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (2) such services were not recognized by GST at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (3) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Audit Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee to whom authority to grant such approvals has been delegated by the Audit Committee, pursuant to the pre-approval provisions of the Policy.

Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services Provided to GST’s Investment Advisers. The Policy provides that, in addition to requiring pre-approval of audit and non-audit services provided to GST, the Audit Committee will pre-approve those non-audit services provided to GST’s investment advisers (and entities controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment advisers that provide ongoing services to GST) where the engagement relates directly to the operations or financial reporting of GST.

Item 4(e)(2) – 0% of the audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees listed in Table 1 were approved by GST’s Audit Committee pursuant to the “de minimis” exception of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X. In addition, 0% of the non-audit services to the GST’s service affiliates listed in Table 2 were approved by GST’s Audit Committee pursuant to the “de minimis” exception of Rule 2-01 (c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

Item 4(f) – Not applicable.

Item 4(g) Aggregate Non-Audit Fees Disclosure

The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST by PwC for the twelve months ended August 31, 2026 and August 31, 2025 were approximately $462,000 and $460,728, respectively. The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST’s adviser and service affiliates by PwC for non-audit services for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were approximately $19.0 million and $20.7 million, respectively. With regard to the aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST’s adviser and service affiliates, the 2025 and 2024 amounts include fees for non-audit services required to be pre-approved [see Table 2] and fees for non-audit services that did not require pre-approval since they did not directly relate to GST’s operations or financial reporting.

Item 4(h) — GST’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services to GST’s investment adviser and service affiliates that did not require pre-approval pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence.

Payments made monthly.

The top 50 components are shown below.

  #

The Fund pays/receives annual coupon payments in accordance with the swap contract(s). On the termination date of the swap contract(s), the Fund will either receive from or pay to the counterparty an amount equal to the net of the accrued financing fees and the value of the reference security subtracted from the original notional cost (notional multiplied by the price change of the reference security, converted to U.S. Dollars).

  *

There are no upfront payments on the swap contracts. Therefore the unrealized gain (loss) on the swap contracts is equal to their market value.

On the termination date of the swap contract(s), the Fund will either receive from or pay to the counterparty an amount equal to the net of the accrued financing fees and the value of the reference security subtracted from the original notional cost (notional multiplied by the price change of the reference security, converted to U.S. Dollars).

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements

 

August 31, 2026

 

 

 

1. ORGANIZATION

Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The following table lists those series of the Trust that are included in this report (collectively, the “Funds” or individually a “Fund”), along with their corresponding share classes and respective diversification status under the Act:

 

            Fund    Share Classes Offered

Institutional, R6 and P

   Diversified

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to each of the Global Managed Beta, Strategic Factor Allocation, Strategic Volatility Premium and Tactical Tilt Overlay Funds pursuant to management agreements (each, an “Agreement”) with the Trust. The Cayman Commodity – GMB, LLC (the “Subsidiary”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, is currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Global Managed Beta Fund, which commenced operations on November 24, 2025.

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Each Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A. Basis of Consolidation for the Funds — Cayman Commodity-GMB, LLC, Cayman Commodity-SFA, LLC, Cayman Commodity-SVP, LLC, and Cayman Commodity-TTIF, LLC, (each a “Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Subsidiaries”), Cayman Islands exempted companies, are currently wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Global Managed Beta, Strategic Factor Allocation, Strategic Volatility Premium and Tactical Tilt Overlay Funds, respectively. The Subsidiaries act as investment vehicles for the Funds to enable the Funds to gain exposure to certain types of commodity-linked derivative instruments. The Funds are the sole shareholders of the Subsidiaries, and it is intended that each Fund will remain the sole shareholder and will continue to control its respective Subsidiary. All inter-fund balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

As of August 31, 2026, the Fund and Subsidiary net assets were as follows:

 

Fund    Fund Net Assets    Subsidiary Net Assets    % Represented by Subsidiary’s Net Assets
Goldman Sachs Global Managed Beta Fund   

$4,828,780,298

   $  94,556,718       2.0%
Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation Fund   

 2,394,964,181

   4,161,652      0.2
Goldman Sachs Strategic Volatility Premium Fund   

  637,297,829

Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund   

5,223,578,025

   651,408,208     12.5

B. Investment Valuation — The Funds’ valuation policy is to value investments at fair value.

C. Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. For the Global Managed Beta and Tactical Tilt Overlay Funds, these reclaims, if any, are recorded when the amount is known and there are no significant uncertainties on collectability. Such amounts recovered, if any, are reflected as other income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments. Distributions received from the Funds’ investments in U.S. real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain and/or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Funds as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT.

A Fund records its pro-rata share of the income/loss and capital gains/losses, allocated from the underlying partnerships and adjusts the cost basis of the underlying partnerships accordingly. Income distributions are recognized as capital gains or income in the financial statements in accordance with the character that is distributed.

For derivative contracts, unrealized gains and losses are recorded daily and become realized gains and losses upon disposition or termination of the contract. Upfront payments, if any, are made or received upon entering into a swap agreement and are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Upfront payments are recognized over the contract’s term/event as realized gains or losses, with the exception of forward starting swap contracts whose realized gains or losses are recognized from the effective start date. For securities with paydown provisions, principal payments received are treated as a proportionate reduction to the cost basis of the securities, and excess or shortfall amounts are recorded as income. For treasury inflation protected securities (“TIPS”), adjustments to principal due to inflation/deflation are reflected as increases/decreases to interest income with a corresponding adjustment to cost.

D. Class Allocations and Expenses — Investment income, realized and unrealized gain (loss), if any, and non-class specific expenses of each Fund are allocated daily based upon the proportion of net assets of each class. Non-class specific expenses directly incurred by a Fund are charged to that Fund, while such expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated across the applicable Funds on a straight-line and/or pro-rata basis depending upon the nature of the expenses. Class specific expenses, where applicable, are borne by the respective share classes and include Transfer Agency fees.

E. Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, each Fund is not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid according to the following schedule:

 

  

Investment Income Dividends

  

Capital Gains Distributions

   Fund    Declared/Paid    Declared/Paid

The Subsidiary is classified as a controlled foreign corporation under the Code. Therefore, the Global Managed Beta Fund, Strategic Volatility Premium Fund and Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund are required to increase their taxable income by its share of the Subsidiary’s income. Net losses of the Subsidiary cannot be deducted by a Fund in the current period nor carried forward to offset taxable income in future periods.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Net capital losses, if any, are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.

The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from GAAP. The source of each Fund’s distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from distributable earnings or capital. Certain components of the Funds’ net assets on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities reflect permanent GAAP/tax differences based on the appropriate tax character.

F. Foreign Currency Translation — The accounting records and reporting currency of a Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates at the close of each business day. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is included within net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. Changes in the value of other assets and liabilities as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations within net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency translation. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the date the transaction occurred, the effects of which are included within net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions.

G. Segment Reporting — The Funds follow Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. Each Fund operates in one segment. The segment derives its revenues from Fund investments made in accordance with the defined investment strategy of the Fund, as prescribed in the Funds’ prospectus. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is the portfolio management team within the Funds’ Investment Adviser. The CODM monitors and actively manages the operating results of each Fund. The financial information the CODM leverages to assess the segment’s performance and to make decisions for the Funds’ single segment is consistent with that presented within the Funds’ financial statements.

H. Income Tax Disclosure — The Funds adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) — Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which enhances income tax disclosures, including disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. Adoption of the new standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect any Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.

 

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price); the Funds’ policy is to use the market approach. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, volatility and credit spreads), either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require significant unobservable inputs (including GSAM’s assumptions in determining fair value measurement).

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has approved valuation procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Funds (“Valuation Procedures”), including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. With respect to the Funds’ investments that do not have readily available market quotations, the Trustees have designated GSAM as the valuation designee to perform fair valuations pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Act (the “Valuation Designee”). GSAM has day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Funds’ investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

A. Level 1 and Level 2 Fair Value Investments — The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair values for investments classified as Level 1 and Level 2 are as follows:

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities will be valued at the valid closing bid price for long positions and at the valid closing ask price for short positions (i.e., where there is sufficient volume, during normal exchange trading hours). If no valid bid/ask price is available, the equity security will be valued pursuant to the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. Certain equity securities containing unique attributes may be classified as Level 2.

Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on the valuation date, or if no sale occurs, at the last bid price for long positions or the last ask price for short positions, and are generally classified as Level 2. Securities traded on certain foreign securities exchanges are valued daily at fair value determined by an independent fair value service (if available) under the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. The independent fair value service takes into account multiple factors including, but not limited to, movements in the securities markets, certain depositary receipts, futures contracts and foreign currency exchange rates that have occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign securities exchange. These investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Underlying Funds (including Money Market Funds) — Underlying funds (“Underlying Funds”) include exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and other investment companies. Investments in the Underlying Funds (except ETFs) are valued at the NAV per share on the day of valuation. ETFs are valued daily at the last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which the investment is traded. Because the Funds invest in Underlying Funds that fluctuate in value, the Funds’ shares will correspondingly fluctuate in value. Underlying Funds are generally classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. To the extent that underlying ETFs are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. For information regarding an Underlying Fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Fund’s financial statements at SEC.gov.

Debt Securities — Debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued daily on the basis of quotations supplied by dealers or an independent pricing service. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which consider: (i) yield or price with respect to bonds that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value. With the exception of treasury securities of G7 countries, which are generally classified as Level 1, these investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

i. Commercial Paper — Commercial paper normally represents short-term unsecured promissory notes issued in bearer form by banks or bank holding companies, corporations, finance companies and other issuers. Commercial paper consists of direct U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of domestic or foreign issuers. Asset-backed commercial paper is issued by a special purpose entity that is organized to issue the commercial paper and to purchase trade receivables or other financial assets.

ii. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities — TIPS are treasury securities in which the principal amount is adjusted daily to keep pace with inflation, as measured by the U.S. Consumer Pricing Index for Urban Consumers. The repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity is guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.

Derivative Contracts — A derivative is an instrument whose value is derived from underlying assets, indices, reference rates or a combination of these factors. A Fund enters into derivative transactions to hedge against changes in interest rates, securities prices, and/or currency exchange rates, to increase total return, or to gain access to certain markets or attain exposure to other underliers. For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund and cash collateral received, if any, is reported separately on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as either due to broker/receivable for collateral on certain derivative contracts. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Consolidated Schedules of Investments.

Exchange-traded derivatives, including futures and options contracts, are generally valued at the last sale or settlement price on the exchange where they are principally traded. Exchange-traded options without settlement prices are generally valued at the midpoint of the bid and ask prices on the exchange where they are principally traded (or, in the absence of two-way trading, at the last bid price for long positions and the last ask price for short positions). Exchange-traded derivatives typically fall within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) and centrally cleared derivatives are valued using market transactions and other market evidence, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value OTC and centrally cleared derivatives depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC and centrally cleared derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC and centrally cleared derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence.

i. Forward Contracts — A forward contract is a contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a specified price on a future date. A forward contract settlement can occur on a cash or delivery basis. Forward contracts are marked-to-market daily using independent vendor prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Cash and certain investments may be used to collateralize forward contracts.

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a forward contract in which a Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked to market daily by using the outright forward rates or interpolating based upon maturity dates, where available. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.

ii. Futures Contracts — Futures contracts are contracts to buy or sell a standardized quantity of a specified commodity or security. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund deposits cash or securities in an account on behalf of the broker in an amount sufficient to meet the initial margin requirement. Subsequent payments are made or received by a Fund equal to the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as variation margin receivable or payable with a corresponding offset to unrealized gains or losses.

iii. Options — When a Fund writes call or put options, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. Swaptions are options on swap contracts.

Upon the purchase of a call option or a put option by a Fund, the premium paid is recorded as an investment and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

iv. Swap Contracts — Bilateral swap contracts are agreements in which a Fund and a counterparty agree to exchange periodic payments on a specified notional amount or make a net payment upon termination. Bilateral swap transactions are privately negotiated in the OTC market and payments are settled through direct payments between a Fund and the counterparty. By contrast, certain swap transactions are subject to mandatory central clearing. These swaps are executed through a derivatives clearing member (“DCM”), acting in an agency capacity, and submitted to a central counterparty (“CCP”) (“centrally cleared swaps”), in which case all payments are settled with the CCP through the DCM. Swaps are marked-to-market daily using pricing vendor quotations, counterparty or clearinghouse prices or model prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Upon entering into a swap contract, a Fund is required to satisfy an initial margin requirement by delivering cash or securities to the counterparty (or in some cases, segregated in a triparty account on behalf of the counterparty), which can be adjusted by any mark-to-market gains or losses pursuant to bilateral or centrally cleared arrangements. For centrally cleared swaps the daily change in valuation, if any, is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin.

An interest rate swap is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals, based upon or calculated by reference to changes in interest rates on a specified notional principal amount. The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to the other.

A total return swap is an agreement that gives a Fund the right to receive or pay the appreciation or depreciation, as applicable, in the value of a specified security, an index, a basket of securities or indices or other instrument in return for a fee paid to the counterparty, which will typically be an agreed upon interest rate. If the underlying asset declines in value over the term of the swap, a Fund may also be required to pay the dollar value of that decline to the counterparty.

B. Level 3 Fair Value Investments — To the extent that significant inputs to valuation models and other alternative pricing sources are unobservable, or if quotations are not readily available, or if GSAM believes that such quotations do not accurately reflect fair value, the fair value of a Fund’s investments may be determined under the Valuation Procedures. GSAM, consistent with its procedures and applicable regulatory guidance, may make an adjustment to the most recent valuation prices of either domestic or foreign securities in light of significant events to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities at the time of determining a Fund’s NAV. To the extent investments are valued using single source broker quotations obtained directly from the broker or passed through from third party pricing vendors, such investments are classified as Level 3 investments.

  (b)

Amounts include $79,129 and $2,230,743 for the Global Managed Beta Fund and Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund, respectively. These amounts represent the payments to be made pursuant to bilateral agreements should counterparties exercise their “right to terminate” provisions based on, among others, the Fund’s performance, its failure to pay on its obligations or failure to pledge collateral. Such amounts do not include incremental charges directly associated with the close-out of the agreements. They also do not reflect the fair value of any assets pledged as collateral which, through the daily margining process, substantially offsets the aforementioned amounts and for which the Fund is entitled to a full return.

The following tables set forth, by certain risk types, the Funds’ gains (losses) related to these derivatives and their indicative volumes for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2026. These gains (losses) should be considered in the context that these derivative contracts may have been executed to create investment opportunities and/or economically hedge certain investments, and accordingly, certain gains (losses) on such derivative contracts may offset certain (losses) gains attributable to investments. These gains (losses) are included in “Net realized gain (loss)” or “Net change in unrealized gain (loss)” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations:

7. SECURITIES LENDING

The Global Managed Beta Fund and Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund may lend their securities through a securities lending agent, the Bank of New York (“BNY”), to certain qualified borrowers. Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the terms and conditions contained therein, the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund may lend its securities through a securities lending agent, Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs, to certain qualified borrowers including Goldman Sachs and affiliates. In accordance with the Funds’ securities lending procedures, the Funds receive cash collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Funds, at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded, and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may experience delay in the recovery of their securities or incur a loss should the borrower of the securities breach its agreement with the Funds or become insolvent at a time when the collateral is insufficient to cover the cost of repurchasing securities on loan. Dividend income received from securities on loan may not be subject to withholding taxes and therefore withholding taxes paid may differ from the amounts listed in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and as such 1) the remaining contractual maturities of the outstanding securities lending transactions are considered to be overnight and continuous and 2) the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

The Funds invest the cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Government Money Market Fund”), an affiliated series of the Goldman Sachs Trust. The Government Money Market Fund is registered under the Act as an open end investment company, is subject to Rule 2a-7 under the Act, and is managed by GSAM, for which GSAM may receive a management fee of up to 0.16% on an annualized basis of the average daily net assets of the Government Money Market Fund.

In the event of a default by a borrower with respect to any loan, GSAL will and BNY may exercise any and all remedies provided under the applicable borrower agreement to make the Funds whole. These remedies include purchasing replacement securities by applying the collateral held from the defaulting broker against the purchase cost of the replacement securities. If GSAL or BNY is unable to purchase replacement securities, GSAL and/or BNY will indemnify the Funds by paying the Funds an amount equal to the market value of the securities loaned minus the value of cash collateral received from the borrower for the loan, subject to an exclusion for any shortfalls resulting from a loss of value in such cash collateral due to reinvestment risk.

The Funds’ master netting agreements with certain borrowers provide the right, in the event of a default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. However, in the event of a default by a borrower, a resolution authority could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of set-off that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Funds’ loaned securities were all subject to enforceable Securities Lending Agreements and the value of the collateral was at least equal to the value of the cash received. The amounts of the Funds’ overnight and continuous agreements, which represent the gross amounts of recognized liabilities for securities lending transactions outstanding as of August 31, 2026, are disclosed as “Payable upon return of securities loaned” on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities, where applicable.

The Funds and BNY received compensation relating to the lending of the Funds’ securities. The amounts earned, if any, by the Funds for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2026, are reported under Securities lending income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Strategic Volatility Premium and Tactical Tilt Overlay Funds utilized $7,950,950 and $6,830,241, respectively, of capital losses in the current fiscal year.

As of August 31, 2026, the Funds’ aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales, net mark to market gains/(losses) on regulated futures contracts, net mark to market gains/(losses) on regulated options contracts, net mark to market gains/(losses) on foreign currency contracts, and differences in the tax treatment of underlying fund investments, passive foreign investment company investments and swap transactions.

The Strategic Volatility Premium and Tactical Tilt Overlay Funds reclassed $2,553 and $174,674, respectively, from paid in capital to distributable earnings for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2026. In order to present certain components of the Funds’ capital accounts on a tax-basis, certain reclassifications have been recorded to the Funds’ accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the net asset value of the Funds and result primarily from differences in the tax treatment of underlying fund investments.

The Global Managed Beta Fund and Strategic Factor Allocation Funds reclassed $76,024 and $530,002, respectively, from distributable earnings to paid-in capital for the year ending August 31, 2026. In order to present certain components of the Funds’ capital accounts on a tax-basis, certain reclassifications have been recorded to the Funds’ accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the net asset value of the Funds and result primarily from redemptions utilized as distributions and differences in the tax treatment of underlying fund investments.

GSAM has reviewed each Fund’s tax positions for all open tax years (the current and prior three years, as applicable) and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in each Fund’s financial statements. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.

9. OTHER RISKS

The Funds’ risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Asset Allocation Risk — The Fund’s allocations to the various asset classes may cause the Fund to underperform other funds with a similar investment objective.

Commodity Sector Risk — Exposure to the commodities markets may subject a Fund to greater volatility than investments in more traditional securities. The value of commodity-linked investments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, business, political and regulatory developments. The prices of energy, industrial metals, precious metals, agriculture and livestock sector commodities may fluctuate widely due to factors such as changes in value, supply and demand and governmental regulatory policies. The commodity-linked investments in which the Subsidiaries enter into may involve counterparties in the financial services sector, and events affecting the financial services sector may cause the Subsidiaries’, and therefore the Funds’, share values to fluctuate.

Counterparty Risk — Many of the protections afforded to cleared transactions, such as the security afforded by transacting through a clearing house, might not be available in connection with OTC transactions. Therefore, in those instances in which a Fund enters into uncleared OTC transactions, a Fund will be subject to the risk that its direct counterparty will not perform its obligations under the transactions and that a Fund will sustain losses.

Derivatives Risk — The Funds’ use of derivatives and other similar instruments (collectively referred to in this paragraph as “derivatives”) may result in loss, including due to adverse market movements. Derivatives, which may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in securities, currencies or other assets and instruments, may increase market exposure and be illiquid or less liquid, volatile, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes in the value of the underlying assets or instruments may produce disproportionate losses to the Funds. Certain derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not, or lacks the capacity or authority to, fulfill its contractual obligations, liquidity risk, which includes the risk that the Funds will not be able to exit the derivative when it is advantageous to do so, and risks arising from margin requirements, which include the risk that the Funds will be required to pay additional margin or set aside additional collateral to maintain open derivative positions. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with investments in more traditional securities and instruments. Losses from derivatives can also result from a lack of correlation between changes in the value of derivative instruments and the portfolio assets (if any) being hedged.

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, fixed income securities or instruments held by a Fund will generally decline in value. Long-term fixed income securities or instruments will normally have more price volatility because of this risk than short-term fixed income securities or instruments. A wide variety of market factors can cause interest rates to rise, including central bank monetary policy, rising inflation and changes in general economic conditions. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from the Funds’ performance. In addition, changes in monetary policy may exacerbate the risks associated with changing interest rates. Funds with longer average portfolio durations will generally be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than funds with a shorter average portfolio duration. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Funds. A sudden or unpredictable increase in interest rates may cause volatility in the market and may decrease the liquidity of a Fund’s investments, which would make it harder for the Fund to sell its investments at an advantageous time.

Investments in ETFs Risk — The Fund may invest directly in ETFs, including affiliated ETFs. The Fund’s investments in ETFs will be subject to the restrictions applicable to investments by an investment company in other investment companies, unless relief is otherwise provided under the terms of an SEC exemptive order or SEC exemptive rule.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include a Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder

GOLDMAN SACHS ALLOCATION FUNDS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

9. OTHER RISKS (continued)

redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact a Fund’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in a Fund’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Leverage Risk — Leverage creates exposure to potential gains and losses in excess of the initial amount invested. Borrowing and the use of derivatives may result in leverage and may make a Fund more volatile. When a Fund uses leverage, the sum of that Fund’s investment exposure may significantly exceed the amount of assets invested in the Fund, although these exposures may vary over time. Relatively small market movements may result in large changes in the value of a leveraged investment. The use of leverage may cause a Fund to liquidate portfolio positions to satisfy its obligations when it may not be advantageous to do so. The use of leverage by a Fund can substantially increase the adverse impact to which the Fund’s investment portfolio may be subject.

Liquidity Risk — A Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that a Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, declining prices of the securities sold, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, a Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. If a Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect a Fund’s NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on a Fund’s liquidity.

Management Risk — A strategy used by the Investment Adviser may fail to produce the intended results.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, a Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). The value of the securities in which a Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular sectors, governments or countries and/or general economic conditions throughout the world due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. Events such as war, military conflict, geopolitical disputes, acts of terrorism, social or political unrest, natural disasters, recessions, inflation, rapid interest rate changes, supply chain disruptions, tariffs and other restrictions on trade, sanctions or the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats, or the threat or potential of one or more such events and developments, could also significantly impact a Fund and its investments. Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which a Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Option Writing Risk — Writing (selling) options may limit the opportunity to profit from an increase or decrease in the market value of a reference security in exchange for up-front cash (the premium) at the time of selling the option. In a sharp rising or falling market, the Fund could significantly underperform the market or other portfolios without an option writing strategy. The Fund could also experience a sudden, significant permanent loss due to dramatic movements in the market value of reference security, which may far exceed the premiums received for writing the option. Such significant losses could cause significant deteriorations in the Fund’s NAV. Furthermore, the premium received from the Fund’s option writing strategies may not fully protect it against market movements because the Fund will continue to bear the risk of movements in the value of its portfolio investments.

Stock Risk — Stock prices have historically risen and fallen in periodic cycles. U.S. and foreign stock markets have experienced periods of substantial price volatility in the past and may do so again in the future.

Subsidiary Risk — The Subsidiary is not registered under the Act, as amended and is not subject to all the investor protections of the Act. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands could result in the inability of the Fund and/or the Subsidiary to operate as described in the Prospectus and the Statement of Additional Information and could adversely affect the Fund.

9. OTHER RISKS (continued)

Tax Risk — The Funds will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in the Subsidiaries and/or commodity index-linked structured notes, as applicable. Historically, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued private letter rulings (“PLRs”) in which the IRS specifically concluded that income and gains from investments in commodity index-linked structured notes (the “Notes Rulings”) or a wholly-owned foreign subsidiary that invests in commodity-linked instruments are “qualifying income” for purposes of compliance with Subchapter M of the Code. However, the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund has not received a PLR, and is not able to rely on PLRs issued to other taxpayers. Treasury regulations generally treat the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund’s income inclusion with respect to a subsidiary as qualifying income either if (A) there is a current distribution out of the earnings and profits of the subsidiary that are attributable to such income inclusion or (B) such inclusion is derived with respect to the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund’s business of investing in stock, securities, or currencies.

The IRS also issued a revenue procedure, which states that the IRS will not in the future issue PLRs that would require a determination of whether an asset (such as a commodity index-linked note) is a “security” under the Act. In connection with issuing such revenue procedure, the IRS has revoked the Notes Ruling on a prospective basis. In light of the revocation of the Notes Rulings, the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund has limited its investments in commodity index-linked structured notes. The Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund has obtained an opinion of counsel that the Fund’s income from investments in the Subsidiary should constitute “qualifying income.” However, no assurances can be provided that the IRS would not be able to successfully assert that the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund’s income from such investments was not “qualifying income,” in which case the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund would fail to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Code if over 10% of its gross income were derived from these investments. If the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund failed to qualify as a RIC, it would be subject to federal and state income tax on all of its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates with no deduction for any distributions paid to shareholders, which would significantly adversely affect the returns to, and could cause substantial losses for, Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund shareholders.

 

10. INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act and state law, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, GSAM believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

 

11. OTHER MATTERS

In September 2026, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2026-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)- Investment Companies with Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2026-03”). The standard requires investment companies to consider contractual sale restrictions when measuring the fair value of in-scope equity securities and requires enhanced disclosures regarding such restrictions, including the amount of any discount attributable to the restriction. ASU 2026-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of, and determining when the Funds will adopt, the new requirement.

 

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date of issuance, and GSAM has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Global Managed Beta Fund, Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation Fund, Goldman Sachs Strategic Volatility Premium Fund and Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedules of investments, of each of the funds listed in the table below and each of their subsidiaries (four of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of August 31, 2026, the related consolidated statements of operations for the year ended August 31, 2026, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2026, including the related notes, and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of August 31, 2026, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2026 and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Goldman Sachs Global Managed Beta Fund*

Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation Fund**

Goldman Sachs Strategic Volatility Premium Fund**

* The financial statements as of and for the year ended August 31, 2025 and the financial highlights for each of the periods ended on or prior to August 31, 2025 (not presented herein, other than the statement of changes in net assets and the financial highlights) were presented on a stand-alone basis.
** The financial statements as of and for the year ended August 31, 2024 and the financial highlights for each of the periods ended on or prior to August 31, 2024 (not presented herein, other than the financial highlights) were presented on a stand-alone basis.

Basis for Opinions

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ consolidated financial statements 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 Funds 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 of these consolidated financial statements 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 consolidated financial statements 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 consolidated financial statements, 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2026, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent of the investee funds and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Global Managed Beta Fund, Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation Fund, Goldman Sachs Strategic Volatility Premium Fund, and Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund (the “Funds”) are investment portfolios of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Funds at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Funds.

The Management Agreement was most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2027 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 15-17, 2026 (the “Annual Meeting”).

The review process undertaken by the Trustees spans the course of the year and culminates with the Annual Meeting. To assist the Trustees in their deliberations, the Trustees have established a Contract Review Committee (the “Committee”), comprised of the Independent Trustees. The Committee held five meetings over the course of the year since the Management Agreement was last approved. At those Committee meetings, regularly scheduled Board or other committee meetings, and/or the Annual Meeting, matters relevant to the renewal of the Management Agreement were considered by the Board, or the Independent Trustees, as applicable. With respect to each Fund, such matters included:

  (a)

the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund and the underlying funds in which the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund invests (the “Underlying Funds”) by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, including information about:

  (i)

the structure, staff, and capabilities of the Investment Adviser and its portfolio management teams;

  (ii)

the groups within the Investment Adviser and its affiliates that support the portfolio management teams or provide other types of necessary services, including fund services groups (e.g., accounting and financial reporting, tax, shareholder services, and operations); controls and risk management groups (e.g., legal, compliance, valuation oversight, credit risk management, internal audit, compliance testing, market risk analysis, finance, and central funding); sales and distribution support groups, and others (e.g., information technology and training);

  (iii)

trends in employee headcount;

  (iv)

the Investment Adviser’s financial resources and ability to hire and retain talented personnel and strengthen its operations; and

  (v)

the parent company’s support of the Investment Adviser and its mutual fund business, as expressed by the firm’s senior management;

  (b)

information on the investment performance of the Fund and the Underlying Funds, including comparisons to the performance of similar mutual funds, as provided by a third-party mutual fund data provider engaged as part of the contract review process (the “Outside Data Provider”), and a benchmark performance index; and information on general investment outlooks in the markets in which the Fund and the Underlying Funds invest;

  (c)

information provided by the Investment Adviser indicating the Investment Adviser’s views on whether the Fund’s peer group and/or benchmark index had high, medium, or low relevance given the Fund’s particular investment strategy;

  (d)

the terms of the Management Agreement and other agreements with affiliated service providers entered into by the Trust on behalf of the Fund;

  (e)

fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

  (i)

the relative management fee and expense levels of the Fund as compared to those of comparable funds managed by other advisers, as provided by the Outside Data Provider;

  (ii)

the Fund’s expense trends over time; and

  (iii)

to the extent the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts (such as bank collective trusts, private wealth management accounts, institutional separate accounts, sub-advised mutual funds, and non-U.S. funds) having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Fund, comparative information on the advisory fees charged and services provided to those accounts by the Investment Adviser;

  (f)

with respect to the extensive investment performance and expense comparison data provided by the Outside Data Provider, its processes in producing that data for the Fund;

  (g)

the undertakings of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations;

  (h)

information relating to the profitability of the Management Agreement and the transfer agency and distribution and service arrangements of the Fund to the Investment Adviser and its affiliates;

  (i)

whether the Fund’s existing management fee schedule, together with the management fee schedules of the Underlying Funds, adequately addressed any economies of scale;

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited) (continued)

 

  (j)

a summary of the “fall-out” benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund and/or the Underlying Funds, including the fees received by the Investment Adviser’s affiliates from the Fund and/or the Underlying Funds for transfer agency, securities lending, portfolio trading, distribution and other services;

  (k)

a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund and/or the Underlying Funds as a result of their relationship with the Investment Adviser;

  (l)

information regarding commissions paid by the Fund and/or the Underlying Funds and broker oversight, an update on the Investment Adviser’s soft dollars practices, other information regarding portfolio trading, and how the Investment Adviser carries out its duty to seek best execution, as applicable;

  (m)

portfolio manager ownership of Fund shares; the manner in which portfolio manager compensation is determined; and the number and types of accounts managed by the portfolio managers;

  (n)

the nature and quality of the services provided to the Fund and the Underlying Funds by their unaffiliated service providers, and the Investment Adviser’s general oversight and evaluation (including reports on due diligence) of those service providers as part of the administrative services provided under the Management Agreement; and

  (o)

the Investment Adviser’s processes and policies addressing various types of potential conflicts of interest; its approach to risk management; the annual review of the effectiveness of the Fund’s compliance program; and periodic compliance reports.

The Trustees also received an overview of the Funds’ distribution arrangements. They received information regarding the Funds’ assets, share purchase and redemption activity. Information was also provided to the Trustees relating to revenue sharing payments made by and services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to intermediaries that promote the sale, distribution, and/or servicing of Fund shares. The Trustees also discussed the broad range of other investment choices that are available to Fund investors, including the availability of comparable funds managed by other advisers.

The presentations made at the Board and Committee meetings and at the Annual Meeting encompassed the Funds and other mutual funds for which the Board of Trustees has responsibility. In evaluating the Management Agreement at the Annual Meeting, the Trustees relied upon their knowledge, resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year, of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, their services, and the Funds. In conjunction with these meetings, the Trustees received written materials and oral presentations on the topics covered, and the Investment Adviser addressed the questions and concerns of the Trustees, including concerns regarding the investment performance of certain of the funds they oversee. The Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel regarding their responsibilities and other regulatory requirements related to the approval and continuation of mutual fund investment management agreements under applicable law. In addition, the Investment Adviser and its affiliates provided the Independent Trustees with a written response to a formal request for information sent on behalf of the Independent Trustees by their independent legal counsel. During the course of their deliberations, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions with their independent legal counsel, without representatives of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates present.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Management Agreement

As part of their review, the Trustees considered the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Funds and the Underlying Funds by the Investment Adviser. In this regard, the Trustees considered both the investment advisory services and non-advisory services that are provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted the Investment Adviser’s commitment to maintaining high quality systems and expending substantial resources to respond to ongoing changes to the market, regulatory and control environment in which the Funds, the Underlying Funds, and their service providers operate, including developments associated with geopolitical events and economic sanctions, as well as the efforts of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to combat cyber security risks. They also noted the changes in the Investment Adviser’s senior management personnel and in the personnel of various of the Investment Adviser’s portfolio management teams that had occurred in recent periods, and the ongoing recruitment efforts aimed at bringing high quality investment talent to the Investment Adviser. The Trustees also considered information regarding the Investment Adviser’s efforts relating to business continuity planning. The Trustees concluded that the Investment Adviser continued to commit substantial financial and operational resources to the Funds and expressed confidence that the Investment Adviser would continue to do so in the future. The Trustees also recognized that the Investment Adviser had made significant commitments to address regulatory compliance requirements applicable to the Funds, the Underlying Funds, and the Investment Adviser and its affiliates.

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Funds and the Underlying Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Fund to its peers using rankings and (in the case of the Strategic Volatility Premium Fund and Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund) ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2025, and, with the exception of the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund, updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser using the peer group identified by the Outside Data Provider as of March 31, 2026. The information on each Fund’s investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods ending on the applicable dates, to the extent that each Fund had been in existence for those periods. The Trustees also reviewed each Fund’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Funds over time, and reviewed the investment performance of each Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Funds’ and the Underlying Funds’ risk profiles, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management. In the case of the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund and Strategic Volatility Premium Fund, they noted the efforts of the Funds’ portfolio management team to continue to enhance the investment models used in managing the Funds.

The Trustees observed that the Global Managed Beta Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the one-, three-, five, and ten-year periods, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-year period and underperformed for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2026. They also considered that the Global Managed Beta Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2025. They noted that the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the three- and five-year periods and in the third quartile for the one-year period, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one- and five-year periods and underperformed for the three-year period ended December 31, 2025. They observed that the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2022 and 2024. The Trustees considered that the Strategic Volatility Premium Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the fourth quartile of the Fund’s peer group and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended March 31, 2026. They noted that the Strategic Volatility Premium Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2022 and 2024. The Trustees observed that the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the third quartile of the Fund’s peer group for the five-year period and in the fourth quartile for the one-, three- and ten-year periods, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-, five- and ten-year periods and underperformed for the three-year period ended March 31, 2026. They noted that the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund had experienced a benchmark index change in 2021.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

The Trustees considered the contractual terms of the Management Agreement and the fee rates payable by each Fund thereunder. In this regard, the Trustees considered information on the services rendered by the Investment Adviser to the Funds, which included both advisory and administrative services that were directed to the needs and operations of the Funds as registered mutual funds.

In particular, the Trustees reviewed analyses prepared by the Outside Data Provider regarding the expense rankings of the Funds. The analyses provided a comparison of each Fund’s management fee and (in the case of the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund, Strategic Volatility Premium Fund, and Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund) breakpoints to those of a relevant peer group and category universe; an expense analysis which compared each Fund’s overall net and gross expenses to a peer group and a category universe; and data comparing each Fund’s net expenses to the peer and category medians. The analyses also compared each Fund’s other expenses and fee waivers/reimbursements to those of the peer group and category medians. The Trustees concluded that the comparisons provided by the Outside Data Provider were useful in evaluating the reasonableness of the management fees and total expenses paid by the Funds.

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations with respect to the Funds and the Underlying Funds. The Trustees noted that the Investment Adviser had agreed to waive a portion of its management fee in an amount equal to the entire management fee paid to the Investment Adviser as the investment adviser to each Fund’s wholly-owned subsidiary. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Funds differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many

GOLDMAN SACHS ALLOCATION FUNDS

 

 

 

 

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited) (continued)

cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

In addition, the Trustees noted that shareholders are able to redeem their shares at any time if shareholders believe that the Fund fees and expenses are too high or if they are dissatisfied with the performance of the Fund.

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for each Fund was provided for 2025 and 2024, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Funds. For the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund, Strategic Volatility Premium Fund, and Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund, the Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreement at the following annual percentage rates of the average daily net assets of each Fund:

 

     Strategic Factor   Strategic Volatility   Tactical Tilt

Average Daily Net Assets

 

  

Allocation Fund

 

 

Premium Fund

 

 

Overlay Fund

 

First $2 billion

       0.75 %       0.50 %       0.75 %

Next $3 billion

       0.68       0.45       0.68

Next $3 billion

       0.64       0.43       0.64

Over $8 billion

       0.62       0.42       0.62

The Trustees noted that the breakpoints were designed to share potential economies of scale, if any, with the Funds and their shareholders as assets under management reach those asset levels. The Trustees considered the amounts of assets in the Funds; the Funds’ recent share purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and their realized profits; information comparing fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer groups; and the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to limit certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels. Upon reviewing these matters at the Annual Meeting, the Trustees concluded that the fee breakpoints for the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund, Strategic Volatility Premium Fund, and Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund represented a means of assuring that benefits of scalability, if any, would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels. They also noted that the Investment Adviser had passed along savings to shareholders of the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund and the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund, each of which had asset levels above at least the first breakpoint during the prior fiscal year. The Trustees also considered the services provided to the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund under the Management Agreement and the fees and expenses borne by the Underlying Funds and considered the Investment Adviser’s finding that the management fees payable by the Fund were not duplicative of the management fees paid at the Underlying Fund level.

With respect to the Global Managed Beta Fund, the Trustees noted that the Fund does not have management fee breakpoints. They considered the asset levels in the Fund; the Fund’s recent purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and their realized profits; information comparing the contractual fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer group; and the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to limit certain expenses of the Fund that exceed a specified level.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds and/or the Underlying Funds as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”); (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities and futures

transactions on behalf of the Funds and certain Underlying Funds; (c) in the case of the Global Managed Beta Fund and Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund, research received by the Investment Adviser from broker-dealers in exchange for executing certain transactions on behalf of the Funds and certain Underlying Funds; (d) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Funds or Underlying Funds with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (e) fees earned by Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), an affiliate of the Investment Adviser as securities lending agent for Strategic Factor Allocation Fund and certain of the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund’s Underlying Funds and fees earned by the Investment Adviser for managing the fund in which the Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund, Global Managed Beta Fund, Strategic Factor Allocation Fund, and certain Underlying Funds’ securities lending cash collateral is invested; (f) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Funds on behalf of its other clients; (g) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (h) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Fund Distributor; (i) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Funds and the Underlying Funds; (j) the investment of cash and cash collateral in money market funds managed by the Investment Adviser that will result in increased assets under management for those money market funds; (k) the investment in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) managed by the Investment Adviser that will result in increased assets under management for those ETFs and may facilitate the development of the Investment Adviser’s ETF advisory business; and (l) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Funds’ and the Underlying Funds’ third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Funds and Their Shareholders

The Trustees also noted that the Funds and/or the Underlying Funds (as applicable) receive certain other potential benefits as a result of their relationship with the Investment Adviser, including: (a) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Funds and/or the Underlying Funds with those of other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (b) enhanced servicing from vendors due to the volume of business generated by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates; (c) enhanced servicing from broker-dealers due to the volume of business generated by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates; (d) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate favorable terms with derivatives counterparties on behalf of the Funds and the Underlying Funds as a result of the size and reputation of the Goldman Sachs organization; (e) the advantages received from the Investment Adviser’s knowledge and experience gained from managing other accounts and products; (f) the Investment Adviser’s ability to hire and retain qualified personnel to provide services to the Funds and the Underlying Funds because of the reputation of the Goldman Sachs organization; (g) the Funds’ and the Underlying Funds’ access, through the Investment Adviser, to certain firm-wide resources (e.g., proprietary risk management systems and databases), subject to certain restrictions; (h) the Strategic Factor Allocation Fund’s ability to participate in the securities lending program administered by GSAL, as measured by the revenue received by the Fund in connection with the program; and (i) the Funds’ access to certain affiliated distribution channels. In addition, the Trustees noted the competitive nature of the mutual fund marketplace, and considered that many of the Funds’ shareholders invested in the Funds in part because of the Funds’ relationship with the Investment Adviser and that those shareholders have a general expectation that the relationship will continue.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by each of the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser’s costs and each Fund’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Adviser’s continued management likely would benefit each Fund and its shareholders and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to each Fund until June 30, 2027.
