CEO’S LETTER

July 15, 2016 (Unaudited)

 

Dear Shareholder,

The U.S. economy continued its slow expansion over the past twelve months in the face of three painful downturns in global financial markets and economic weakness in other developed market nations.

 

LOGO   

 

“The events of the past twelve months reinforce our conviction that patience and proper diversification are the investor’s best instruments for engaging the current market environment: Patience to wait out periodic volatility and diversification to manage risk across an entire investment portfolio.”

Growth in the U.S. was sufficient to prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) to raise interest rates in December 2015, but financial market turmoil in early 2016 and worrisome economic data forced the Fed to curtail further increases in March and June. Following its March meeting, the Fed cited weakness in the global economy as a threat to further growth in the U.S. In June, the Fed noted surprisingly weak domestic job growth and the pending June 23, 2016, referendum on U.K. membership in the European Union (EU).

The result of the “Brexit” vote shocked political leaders around the globe and sowed panic in financial markets. Within days, an estimated $3 trillion was erased from global financial markets. The resulting decline in the British pound was deep enough that France supplanted the U.K. as the world’s fifth largest economy.

Notably, global financial markets had largely rebounded by the end of June, and in the U.S. the impact of the U.K. referendum was muted.

Meanwhile, the sharp slowdown in U.S. job growth in May that had so worried Fed policymakers was short-lived. The U.S. economy added 287,000 jobs in June, far above the consensus forecast of 175,000 new jobs and the most of any month since October 2015. Wage growth over the past twelve months has remained tepid, which has helped corporate earnings and held down inflationary pressure.

A remarkable feature of the past twelve months was the resiliency of U.S. financial markets. On August 24, 2015, a stock market sell-off that began in China and spread globally drove down the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P 500”) by 3.94% for the day. But U.S. equity prices largely rebounded and in October the index turned in its best performance since 2011.

U.S. equity prices dropped again in early 2016 and the S&P 500 had its worst start to any year on record, falling 5.07% by the end of January and slumping by 10% by mid-February. By the end of March, the index had clawed its way back to a level slightly above where it was when the year started. In late June, the U.K. referendum to leave the European Union drove a one-day decline of 3.59% in the S&P 500. Globally, equity markets recorded their biggest one-day loss, eclipsing downturns following the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy in 2008 and the Black Monday stock market crash in 1987.

By June 30, 2016, U.S. markets had recovered fully and the S&P 500 posted a return of 3.99% for the twelve month period and stood 1.50% shy of its then-record intraday high 2,130.82 points reached May 21, 2015.

Over the past twelve months, U.S. financial markets have both withstood and benefitted from turmoil in foreign financial markets. Investors seeking to reduce risk have bought both U.S. equities and U.S. Treasury bonds. Meanwhile, stubbornly low growth in the EU and other developed markets and lingering concerns about the trajectory of China’s economy continued to drag on the U.S. economy. But the U.S. economic expansion is halfway through its seventh year and the U.S. stock market’s bull market — defined as a rise of 20% or more in prices — is now the second longest on record.

Investors endured heightened volatility in financial markets over the past twelve months, including three large declines in equity prices. However, leading equity indexes ended the period in positive territory. The events of the past twelve months reinforce our conviction that patience and proper diversification are the investor’s best instruments for engaging the current market environment: Patience to wait out periodic volatility and diversification to manage risk across an entire investment portfolio. On behalf of everyone at J.P. Morgan Asset Management, thank you for your continued support.

We look forward to managing your investment needs for years to come. Should you have any questions, please visit www.jpmorganfunds.com or contact the J.P. Morgan Funds Service Center at 1-800-480-4111.

Sincerely yours,

MARKET OVERVIEW

TWELVE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2016 (Unaudited)

 

Despite three sharp sell-offs in August, January and June, U.S. equity prices rebounded to turn in a positive performance for the twelve months ended June 30, 2016. In August, declines in Chinese stocks spread rapidly and drove the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (S&P 500) down 3.94% in one day. In October, U. S. stocks came roaring back and turned in their best monthly performance since late 2011.

In January, the S&P 500 suffered its worst start to any year on record amid worrisome data about China’s economy, slumping commodities prices and investor expectations of further slowing in the global economy. However, equity markets recovered somewhat by March as the U.S. Federal Reserve decided against raising interest rates. In June, the U.K. vote to leave the European Union sparked the worst single day in recent global markets. The sell-off drained an estimated $2.08 trillion from world financial markets on the Friday following the U.K. referendum and $931 billion was lost the following Monday.

However, global equity markets rebounded sharply in the final days of June and the S&P 500 posted a return of 3.99% for the twelve month reporting period, closing just 1.50% below its then-record intraday high, set in May 2015. Generally, large cap stocks outperformed mid cap stocks, while small cap stocks overall had negative returns for the twelve month reporting period. Notably, mid cap value stocks outperformed all other categories. Among U.S. equities, the telecommunications and utilities sectors were generally the strongest performers as investors sought high dividend yields and the perceived safety of those sectors. Financial sector and energy stocks were the worst performers amid continued low interest rates and expectations of low growth globally and general weakness in global energy prices.

FUND COMMENTARY

TWELVE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2016 (Unaudited)

 

REPORTING PERIOD RETURN:  
Fund (Class A Shares, without a sales charge)*      (5.07)%   
Russell 3000 Growth Index      1.88%   
Net Assets as of 6/30/2016 (In Thousands)    $ 5,963,600   

 

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE**

The JPMorgan Growth Advantage Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide long-term capital growth.

WHAT WERE THE MAIN DRIVERS OF THE FUND’S PERFORMANCE?

The Fund’s Class A Shares, without a sales charge, underperformed the Russell 3000 Growth Index (the “Benchmark”) for the twelve months ended June 30, 2016. The Fund’s security selection in the health care and financial services sectors was a leading detractor from performance relative to the Benchmark, while the Fund’s security selection in the materials & processing and consumer discretionary sectors was a leading contributor to relative performance.

Leading individual detractors from relative performance included the Fund’s overweight positions in Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc., SolarCity Corp. and Illumina Inc.

Shares of Valeant Pharmaceuticals, a drug maker not held in the Benchmark, fell on investor concerns about the company’s revenue accounting practices. Shares of SolarCity, a maker of solar energy systems, declined on lower than expected installations in the fourth quarter of 2015 and the first quarter of 2016. Shares of Illumina, a provider of genetic analysis technology, fell on lower than expected sales in Europe and a reduced earnings forecast.

Leading individual contributors to relative performance included the Fund’s underweight position in Apple Inc. and its overweight positions in Facebook Inc. and Acuity Brands Inc. Shares of Apple, a maker of computers and mobile devices, fell on slowing sales of its iPhone products and weakness in quarterly revenue. Shares of Facebook, a social media company, rose on continued growth in advertising revenue. Shares of Acuity Brands, a maker of commercial and residential lighting, rose on strength in its LED lighting business and market share gains.

HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?

The Fund’s portfolio managers utilized a bottom-up approach to stock selection, researching individual companies across

market capitalizations in an effort to construct portfolios of stocks that have strong fundamentals. The Fund’s portfolio managers sought to invest in high quality companies with durable franchises that, in their view, possessed the ability to generate strong future earnings growth.

The performance quoted is past performance and is not a guarantee of future results. Mutual funds are subject to certain market risks. Investment returns and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data shown. For up-to-date month-end performance information please call 1-800-480-4111.

Returns for Class R5 Shares prior to their inception date are based on the performance of Select Class Shares. The actual returns of Class R5 Shares would have been different than those shown because Class R5 Shares have different expenses than Select Class Shares.

Returns for Class R6 Shares prior to their inception date are based on the performance of Class R5 Shares from January 8, 2009 to December 23, 2013 and Select Class Shares prior to January 8, 2009. The actual returns of Class R6 Shares would have been different than those shown because Class R6 Shares have different expenses than Class R5 Shares and Select Class Shares.

The graph illustrates comparative performance for $10,000 invested in Class A Shares of the JPMorgan Growth Advantage Fund, the Russell 3000 Growth Index and the Lipper Multi-Cap Growth Funds Index from June 30, 2006 to June 30, 2016. The performance of the Fund assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, and includes a sales charge. The performance of the Russell 3000 Growth Index does not reflect the deduction of

expenses or a sales charge associated with a mutual fund and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions of the securities included in the benchmark, if applicable. The performance of the Lipper Multi-Cap Growth Funds Index includes expenses associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. These expenses are not identical to the expenses incurred by the Fund. The Russell 3000 Growth Index is an unmanaged index which measures the performance of those Russell 3000 companies (largest 3000 U.S. companies) with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The Lipper Multi-Cap Growth Funds Index is an index based on total returns of certain mutual funds within the Fund’s designated category as determined by Lipper, Inc. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Class A Shares have a $1,000 minimum initial investment and carry a 5.25% sales charge.

Fund performance may reflect the waiver of the Fund’s fees and reimbursement of expenses for certain periods since the inception date. Without these waivers and reimbursements, performance would have been lower. Also, performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemption of Fund shares.

The returns shown are based on net asset values calculated for shareholder transactions and may differ from the returns shown in the financial highlights, which reflect adjustments made to the net asset values in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE**

The JPMorgan Mid Cap Equity Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long-term capital growth.

WHAT WERE THE MAIN DRIVERS OF THE FUND’S PERFORMANCE?

The Fund’s Select Class Shares underperformed the Russell Midcap Index (the “Benchmark”) for the twelve months ended June 30, 2016. The Fund’s security selection in the health care and financial services sectors was a leading detractor from performance relative to the Benchmark, while the Fund’s security selection in the materials & processing and producer durables sectors was a leading contributor to relative performance.

Leading individual detractors from relative performance included the Fund’s overweight positions in Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc., CBRE Group Inc. and Illumina Inc. Shares of Valeant, a drug maker not held in the Benchmark, fell on continued investor concerns about the company’s revenue accounting practices. Shares of CBRE, a commercial real estate and investment company, fell on investor concerns the company’s earnings will be hurt by the U.K.’s exit from the European Union. Shares of Illumina, a provider of genetic analysis technology, fell on lower than expected sales in Europe and a reduced earnings forecast.

Leading individual contributors to relative performance included the Fund’s overweight positions in Acuity Brands Inc., Jack Henry & Associates Inc. and Waste Connections Inc. Shares of Acuity Brands, a maker of commercial and residential lighting, rose on strength in its LED lighting business and market share gains. Shares of Jack Henry & Associates, a provider of data processing to community banks, rose on better than expected quarterly earnings and revenue. Shares of Waste Connections, a waste management company, rose on news of its $2.67 billion merger with Canada’s Progressive Waste Solutions Ltd.

HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?

The Fund’s portfolio managers employed a bottom-up approach to stock selection, constructing a portfolio based on

company fundamentals, quantitative screening and proprietary fundamental analysis. The Fund’s portfolio managers sought to identify dominant franchises with predictable business models deemed capable of achieving, in their view, sustained growth, as well as undervalued companies with the potential to grow their intrinsic value per share.

Leading individual detractors from relative performance included the Fund’s overweight positions in Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc., SolarCity Corp. and Illumina Inc. Shares of Valeant Pharmaceuticals, a drug maker not held in the Benchmark, fell on continued investor concerns about the company’s revenue accounting practices. Shares of SolarCity, a maker of solar energy systems, declined on lower than expected installations in the fourth quarter of 2015 and the first quarter of 2016. Shares of Illumina, a provider of genetic analysis technology, fell on lower than expected sales in Europe and a reduced earnings forecast.

Leading individual contributors to relative performance included the Fund’s overweight positions in Acuity Brands Inc., Waste Connections Inc. and Ulta Salon Cosmetics & Fragrance Inc. Shares of Acuity Brands, a maker of commercial and residential lighting, rose on strength in its LED lighting business and market share gains. Shares of Waste Connections, a waste management company, rose on news of its $2.67 billion merger with Canada’s Progressive Waste Solutions Ltd. Shares of Ulta Salon Cosmetics, a beauty products retailer, rose on better than expected quarterly earnings and the company’s forecast for sales growth.

HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?

The Fund’s portfolio managers utilized a bottom-up approach

to stock selection, researching individual companies in an effort

to construct a portfolio of stocks that have strong fundamentals. The Fund’s portfolio managers sought to invest in high quality companies with durable franchises that, in their view, possessed the ability to generate strong future earnings growth.

The performance quoted is past performance and is not a guarantee of future results. Mutual funds are subject to certain market risks. Investment returns and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data shown. For up-to-date month-end performance information please call 1-800-480-4111.

Returns for the Class R2, Class R5 and Class R6 Shares prior to their inception dates are based on the performance of Select Class Shares. Prior performance for Class R2 Shares has been adjusted to reflect the differences in expenses between classes. The actual returns of Class R5 and Class R6 Shares would have been different than those shown because Class R5 and Class R6 Shares have different expenses than Select Class Shares.

The graph illustrates comparative performance for $1,000,000 invested in Select Class Shares of the JPMorgan Mid Cap Growth Fund, the Russell Midcap Growth Index and the Lipper Global Multi-Cap Growth Funds Index from June 30, 2006 to June 30, 2016. The performance of the Fund assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, and does not include a sales charge. The performance of the Russell Midcap Growth Index does not reflect the deduction of expenses or a sales charge associated with a mutual fund and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and

capital gain distributions of the securities included in the benchmark, if applicable. The performance of the Lipper Global Multi-Cap Growth Funds Index includes expenses associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. These expenses are not identical to the expenses incurred by the Fund. The Russell Midcap Growth Index is an unmanaged index which measures the performance of those Russell Midcap companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The Lipper Global Multi-Cap Growth Funds Index is an index based on total returns of certain mutual funds as determined by Lipper, Inc. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Select Class Shares have a $1,000,000 minimum initial investment.

Fund performance may reflect the waiver of the Fund’s fees and reimbursement of expenses for certain periods since the inception date. Without these waivers and reimbursements, performance would have been lower. Also, performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemption of Fund shares.

FUND COMMENTARY

TWELVE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2016 (Unaudited)

 

REPORTING PERIOD RETURN:  
Fund (Institutional Class Shares)*      2.35%   
Russell Midcap Value Index      3.25%   
Net Assets as of 6/30/2016 (In Thousands)    $ 15,564,142   

 

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE**

The JPMorgan Mid Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”) seeks growth from capital appreciation.

WHAT WERE THE MAIN DRIVERS OF THE FUND’S PERFORMANCE?

The Fund’s Institutional Class Shares underperformed the Russell Midcap Value Index (the “Benchmark”) for the twelve months ended June 30, 2016. The Fund’s overweight position and security selection in the consumer discretionary sector and its security selection in the health care sector were leading detractors from performance relative to the Benchmark. The Fund’s underweight position in the energy sector and its security selection in the industrials sector were leading contributors to relative performance.

Leading individual detractors from relative performance included the Fund’s overweight positions in Gap Inc. and Kohl’s Corp. and its underweight position in Nvidia Corp. Shares of Gap, an apparel retailer not held in the Benchmark, fell on sales weakness due to the relative strength of the U.S. dollar and disappointing holiday season sales at its Old Navy brand. Shares of Kohl’s, an apparel retailer, fell on lower than expected earnings and weak sales growth. Shares Nvidia, a graphics software maker that was not held in the Fund, rose on strong demand for its semiconductors.

Leading individual contributors to relative performance included the Fund’s overweight positions in Jack Henry & Associates Inc., Westar Energy Inc. and its underweight position in Perrigo Co. Shares of Jack Henry & Associates, a provider of financial data processing technology that was not held in the Benchmark, rose on better than expected quarterly earnings and revenue. Shares of Westar Energy, an electric utility, rose as investors sought out companies with higher divided yields. Shares of Perrigo, a specialty pharmaceuticals and consumer products company, rose on better than expected revenue growth and investor expectations that the company may become an acquisition target.

HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?

The Fund’s portfolio managers utilized a bottom-up approach to stock selection and sought to identify durable franchises possessing the ability to generate, in their view, sustainable levels of free cash flow.

TWELVE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2016 (Unaudited)

 

REPORTING PERIOD RETURN:  
Fund (Select Class Shares)*      0.60%   
BofA Merrill Lynch 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index      0.19%   
Net Assets as of 6/30/16 (In Thousands)    $ 188,103   

 

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE**

The JPMorgan Multi-Cap Market Neutral Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long-term capital preservation and growth by using strategies designed to produce returns which have no correlation with general domestic market performance.

WHAT WERE THE MAIN DRIVERS OF THE FUND’S PERFORMANCE?

The Fund’s Select Class Shares outperformed the BofA Merrill Lynch 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index (the “Benchmark”) for the twelve months ended June 30, 2016. The Fund’s security selection in the health services and systems and energy sectors was a leading contributor to performance relative to the Benchmark. The Fund’s security selection in the pharmaceuticals and medical technology sector and its security selection and overweight position in the banks and brokerages sector were leading detractors from relative performance.

Leading individual contributors to Fund’s return included its short positions in Consol Energy Inc. and Tenet Healthcare Inc. and its long position in CoreLogic Inc. Shares of Consol Energy, an oil and gas producer, fell on continued weakness in global energy prices. Shares of Tenet Healthcare, a hospitals operator,

fell on declining patient visits. Shares of CoreLogic, a provider of real estate data and analysis, rose on better than expected quarterly earnings and revenue.

Leading individual detractors from Fund returns included its short positions in Twitter Inc. and Nordstrom Inc. and its long position in Health Net Inc. Shares of Twitter, a provider of social media, rose on expansion of its business into streaming live content. Shares of Nordstrom, an apparel retailer, rose on better than expected sales in the middle of the reporting period. Shares of Health Net, a health insurer, fell on lower than expected revenue early in the reporting period.

HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?

The Fund’s portfolio managers employed a bottom-up approach to stock selection, constructing a portfolio based on company fundamentals, quantitative screening and proprietary fundamental analysis. The Fund’s portfolio managers sought to identify dominant franchises with predictable business models deemed capable of achieving, in their view, sustained growth, as well as undervalued companies with the potential to grow their intrinsic value per share. Companies that ranked lowest in the above factors were selected by the Fund’s portfolio managers for possible short sales.

FUND COMMENTARY

TWELVE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2016 (Unaudited)

 

REPORTING PERIOD RETURN:  
Fund (Institutional Class Shares)*      (1.87)%   
Russell 3000 Value Index      2.42%   
Net Assets as of 6/30/2016 (In Thousands)    $ 10,090,951   

 

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE**

The JPMorgan Value Advantage Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide long-term total return from a combination of income and capital gains.

WHAT WERE THE MAIN DRIVERS OF THE FUND’S PERFORMANCE?

The Fund’s Institutional Class Shares underperformed the Russell 3000 Value Index (the “Benchmark”) for the twelve months ended June 30, 2016. The Fund’s overweight positions in the consumer discretionary and financial services sectors were leading detractors from performance relative to the Benchmark, while the Fund’s security selection in the utilities and consumer staples sectors was a leading contributor to relative performance.

Leading individual detractors from relative performance included the Fund’s overweight positions Kohl’s Corp. and Southwestern Energy Co. and its underweight position in General Electric Co. Shares of Kohl’s, an apparel retailer, fell on lower than expected earnings and weak sales growth. Shares of Southwestern Energy, a petroleum and natural gas producer, fell on continued weakness in global energy prices. Shares of General Electric, an industrial manufacturer not held by the Fund, rose on overall strength in the industrials sector stocks.

Leading individual contributors to relative performance included the Fund’s overweight positions in Xcel Energy Inc., Martin Marietta Materials Inc. and Post Holdings Inc. Shares of Xcel, an electric utility, rose on positive earnings performance and investor demand for utility stocks with high dividend yields. Shares of Martin Marietta, a supplier of construction materials, rose on better than expected earnings and overall strength in industrials sector stocks. Shares of Post Holdings, a maker of cereals and other packaged foods, rose on better than expected earnings.

HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?

The Fund’s portfolio managers utilized a bottom-up approach to stock selection and sought to identify durable franchises possessing the ability to generate, in the portfolio managers’ view, significant levels of free cash flow. During the reporting period, the Fund’s largest average overweight position

remained the consumer discretionary sector, where the Fund’s portfolio managers found what they believed to be compelling investment opportunities. The Fund’s largest average underweight position was in the energy sector.

The performance quoted is past performance and is not a guarantee of future results. Mutual funds are subject to certain market risks. Investment returns and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data shown. For up-to-date month-end performance information please call 1-800-480-4111.

The graph illustrates comparative performance for $3,000,000 invested in Institutional Class Shares of the JPMorgan Value Advantage Fund, the Russell 3000 Value Index and the Lipper Multi-Cap Value Funds Index from June 30, 2006 to June 30, 2016. The performance of the Fund assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, and does not include a sales charge. The performance of the Russell 3000 Value Index does not reflect the deduction of expenses or a sales charge associated with a mutual fund and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions of the securities included in the benchmark, if applicable. The performance of the Lipper Multi-Cap Value Funds Index includes expenses associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. These expenses are not identical to the expenses incurred by the Fund. The

Russell 3000 Value Index is an unmanaged index which measures the performance of those Russell 3000 companies (largest 3000 U.S. companies) with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. The Lipper Multi-Cap Value Funds Index is an index based on total returns of certain mutual funds within the Fund’s designated category as determined by Lipper, Inc. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Institutional Class Shares have a $3,000,000 minimum initial investment.

Fund performance may reflect the waiver of the Fund’s fees and reimbursement of expenses for certain periods since the inception date. Without these waivers and reimbursements, performance would have been lower. Also, performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemption of Fund shares.

The returns shown are based on net asset values calculated for shareholder transactions and may differ from the returns shown in the financial highlights, which reflect adjustments made to the net asset values in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

(a) Annualized for periods less than one year, unless otherwise noted.
(b) Calculated based upon average shares outstanding.
(c) Not annualized for periods less than one year.
(d) Includes adjustments in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and as such, the net asset values for financial reporting purposes and the returns based upon those net asset values may differ from the net asset values and returns for shareholder transactions.
(e) Includes earnings credits and interest expense, if applicable, each of which is less than 0.005% unless otherwise noted.
(f) Portfolio turnover is calculated by dividing the lesser of total purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the reporting period by the monthly average value of portfolio securities owned during the reporting period. Excluded from both the numerator and denominator are amounts relating to derivatives and securities whose maturities or expiration dates at the time of acquisition were one year or less.
(g) Reflects special dividends paid out during the period by several of the Fund’s holdings. Had the Fund not received the special dividends, the net investment income (loss) per share would have been $(0.02), $(0.06), $0.03 and $0.01 for Class A, Class C, Class R5 and Select Class Shares, respectively, and the net investment income (loss) ratio would have been (0.17)%, (0.66)%, 0.27% and 0.09% for Class A, Class C, Class R5 and Select Class Shares, respectively.
(h) Reflects a special dividend paid out during the period by one of the Fund’s holdings. Had the Fund not received the special dividend, the net investment income (loss) per share would have been $(0.05), $(0.09), $(0.01) and $(0.03) for Class A, Class C, Class R5 and Select Class Shares, respectively, and the net investment income (loss) ratio would have been (0.56)%, (1.03)%, (0.12)% and (0.37)% for Class A, Class C, Class R5 and Select Class Shares, respectively.
(i) Commencement of offering of class of shares.

(d) The net expenses and expenses without waivers, reimbursements and earnings credits (excluding dividend expense and interest expense for securities sold short) for Class A are 1.27% and 1.69% for the year ended June 30, 2016, 1.48% and 1.95% for the year ended June 30, 2015, 1.49% and 1.91% for the year ended June 30, 2014, 1.48% and 1.88% for the year ended June 30, 2013, 1.48% and 1.94% for the year ended June 30, 2012; for Class C are 1.77% and 2.20% for the year ended June 30, 2016, 1.98% and 2.45% for the year ended June 30, 2015, 1.99% and 2.40% for the year ended June 30, 2014, 2.15% and 2.38% for the year ended June 30, 2013, 2.23% and 2.44% for the year ended June 30, 2012; for Select Class are 1.03% and 1.30% for the year ended June 30, 2016, 1.23% and 1.64% for the year ended June 30, 2015, 1.23% and 1.65% for the year ended June 30, 2014, 1.23% and 1.63% for the year ended June 30, 2013, 1.23% and 1.69% for the year ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
(e) Portfolio turnover is calculated by dividing the lesser of total purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the reporting period by the monthly average value of portfolio securities owned during the reporting period. Excluded from both the numerator and denominator are amounts relating to derivatives and securities whose maturities or expiration dates at the time of acquisition were one year or less.
(f) Reflects special dividends paid out during the period by several of the Fund’s holdings. Had the Fund not received the special dividends, the net investment income (loss) per share would have been $(0.13), $(0.19) and $(0.11) for Class A, Class C and Select Class Shares, respectively, and the net investment income (loss) ratio would have been (1.38)%, (2.06)% and (1.16)% for Class A, Class C and Select Class Shares, respectively.

(“JPMorgan”) acts as Adviser (the “Adviser”) and Administrator (the “Administrator”) to the Funds. Prior to April 1, 2016, JPMorgan Funds Management, Inc. (“JPMFM”) served as the Funds’ administrator. Effective April 1, 2016, JPMFM merged into JPMIM and JPMIM became the Funds’ Administrator under the Administration Agreement.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The Funds are investment companies and, accordingly, follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 — Investment Companies, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A. Valuation of Investments — The valuation of investments is in accordance with GAAP and the Funds’ valuation policies set forth by and under the supervision and responsibility of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), which established the following approach to valuation, as described more fully below: (i) investments for which market quotations are readily available shall be valued at such unadjusted quoted prices and (ii) all other investments for which market quotations are not readily available shall be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Board.

 

 
68       J.P. MORGAN MID CAP/MULTI-CAP FUNDS   JUNE 30, 2016


Table of Contents

The Administrator has established the J.P. Morgan Asset Management Americas Valuation Committee (“AVC”) to assist the Board with the oversight and monitoring of the valuation of the Funds’ investments. The Administrator implements the valuation policies of the Funds’ investments, as directed by the Board. The AVC oversees and carries out the policies for the valuation of investments held in the Funds. This includes monitoring the appropriateness of fair values based on results of ongoing valuation oversight, including but not limited to consideration of macro or security specific events, market events and pricing vendor and broker due diligence. The Administrator is responsible for discussing and assessing the potential impacts to the fair values on an ongoing basis, and at least on a quarterly basis with the AVC and the Board.

Equities and other exchange-traded instruments are valued at the last sale price or official market closing price on the primary exchange on which the instrument is traded before the net asset values (“NAV”) of the Funds are calculated on a valuation date. Investments in open-end investment companies (the “Underlying Funds”), are valued at each Underlying Fund’s NAV per share as of the report date.

Futures are generally valued on the basis of available market quotations.

Valuations reflected in this report are as of the report date. As a result, changes in valuation due to market events and/or issuer related events after the report date and prior to issuance of the report are not reflected herein.

The various inputs that are used in determining the valuation of the Funds’ investments are summarized into the three broad levels listed below.

 

 

Level 1 — Unadjusted inputs using quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

 

Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for investments (such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) or other market corroborated inputs.

 

Level 3 — Significant inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Funds’ assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input, both individually and in the aggregate, that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those instruments.

The following tables represent each valuation input as presented on the Schedules of Portfolio Investments (“SOIs”) (amounts in thousands):

(a) All portfolio holdings designated as level 1 are disclosed individually on the SOIs. Please refer to the SOIs for industry specifics of portfolio holdings.

There were no transfers among any levels during the year ended June 30, 2016.

B. Short Sales — Multi-Cap Market Neutral Fund engages in short sales as part of its normal investment activities. In a short sale, the Fund sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of those securities. In order to deliver securities to the purchaser, the Fund borrows securities from a broker. To close out a short position, the Fund delivers the same securities to the broker.

The Fund is required to pledge cash or securities to the broker as collateral for the securities sold short. Collateral requirements are calculated daily based on the current market value of the short positions. Cash collateral deposited with the broker is recorded as Deposits at broker for securities sold short, while cash collateral deposited at the Fund’s custodian for the benefit of the broker is recorded as Restricted Cash on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Securities segregated as collateral are denoted on the SOIs. The Fund may receive or pay the net of the following amounts: (i) a portion of the income from the investment of cash collateral; (ii) the broker’s fee on the borrowed securities (calculated daily based upon the market value of each borrowed security and a variable rate that is dependent on availability of the security); and (iii) a financing charge for the difference between the market value of the short position and cash collateral deposited with the broker. The net income or fee is reported as Interest income or Interest expense, respectively, on securities sold short on the Statements of Operations.

The Fund is obligated to pay the broker dividends declared on short positions when a position is open on the record date. Dividends on short positions are reported on ex-dividend date on the Statements of Operations as Dividend expense on securities sold short.

Liabilities for securities sold short are reported at market value on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the change in market value is recorded as change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Statements of Operations. Short sale transactions may result in unlimited losses as the security’s price increases and the short position loses value. There is no upward limit on the price a borrowed security could attain. The Fund is also subject to risk of loss if the broker were to fail to perform its obligations under the contractual terms.

The Fund will record a realized loss if the price of the borrowed security increases between the date of the short sale and the date on which the Fund replaces the borrowed security. The Fund will record a realized gain if the price of the borrowed security declines between those dates.

As of June 30, 2016, the Fund had outstanding short sales as listed on the SOI.

C. Futures Contracts — Multi-Cap Market Neutral Fund used index futures contracts to gain or reduce exposure to the stock market, maintain liquidity or minimize transaction costs. The Fund also bought futures contracts to invest incoming cash in the market or sold futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating an invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity.

Futures contracts provide for the delayed delivery of the underlying instrument at a fixed price or are settled for a cash amount based on the change in the value of the underlying instrument at a specific date in the future. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with the broker, cash or securities in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount, which is referred to as the initial margin deposit. Subsequent payments, referred to as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund periodically and are based on changes in the market value of open futures contracts. Changes in the market value of open futures contracts are recorded as Change in net unrealized appreciation/depreciation on the Statements of Operations. Realized gains or losses, representing the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed, are reported on the Statements of Operations at the closing or expiration of the futures contract. Securities deposited as initial margin are designated on the SOIs and cash deposited is recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. A receivable from and/or a payable to brokers for the daily variation margin is also recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Table of Contents

The use of futures contracts exposes the Fund to equity price risk. The Fund may be subject to the risk that the change in the value of the futures contract may not correlate perfectly with the underlying instrument. Use of long futures contracts subjects the Fund to risk of loss in excess of the amounts shown on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, up to the notional amount of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects the Fund to unlimited risk of loss. The Fund may enter into futures contracts only on exchanges or boards of trade.

The exchange or board of trade acts as the counterparty to each futures transaction; therefore, the Fund’s credit risk is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade. Under some circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily limits on the amount that the price of a futures contract can vary from the previous day’s settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of positions.

The table below discloses the volume of the Fund’s futures contracts activity during the year ended June 30, 2016 (amounts in thousands):

Market
Neutral
Fund
 

Futures Contracts:

  

Average Notional Balance Short

   $ 3,476   

Ending Notional Balance Short

     1,821   

The Fund’s futures contracts are not subject to master netting arrangements (the right to close out all transactions traded with a counterparty and net amounts owed or due across transactions).

D. Security Transactions and Investment Income — Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (the date the order to buy or sell is executed). Securities gains and losses are calculated on a specifically identified cost basis. Interest income is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued using the effective interest method which adjusts for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income, net of foreign taxes withheld, if any, and dividend expense on securities sold short, are recorded on the ex-dividend date or when a Fund first learns of the dividend.

To the extent such information is publicly available, the Funds record distributions received in excess of income earned from underlying investments as a reduction of cost of investments and/or realized gain. Such amounts are based on estimates if actual amounts are not available and actual amounts of income, realized gain and return of capital may differ from the estimated amounts. The Funds adjust the estimated amounts of the components of distributions (and consequently their net investment income) as necessary once the issuers provide information about the actual composition of the distributions.

E. Allocation of Income and Expenses — Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged directly to that fund, while the expenses attributable to more than one fund of the Trusts are allocated among the respective funds. In calculating the NAV of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses and expenses, other than class specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day.

Transfer agency fees and sub-transfer agency fees are class-specific expenses. The amount of the transfer agency fees and sub-transfer agency fees charged to each class of the Funds for the year ended June 30, 2016 are as follows (amounts in thousands):

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF JUNE 30, 2016 (continued)

 

F. Federal Income Taxes — Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity for Federal income tax purposes. Each Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders all of its distributable net investment income and net realized capital gains on investments. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income tax is necessary. Management has reviewed the Funds’ tax positions for all open tax years and has determined that as of June 30, 2016, no liability for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements for net unrecognized tax benefits. However, management’s conclusions may be subject to future review based on changes in, or the interpretation of, the accounting standards or tax laws and regulations. Each of the Funds’ Federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

G. Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income are generally declared and paid at least annually, except for the Mid Cap Equity Fund, Mid Cap Growth Fund and Multi-Cap Market Neutral Fund, for which distributions are generally declared and paid at least quarterly. Distributions are declared separately for each class of each Fund. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share rates are due to differences in separate class expenses. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed by each Fund at least annually. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. To the extent these “book/tax” differences are permanent in nature (i.e., that they result from other than timing of recognition — “temporary differences”), such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their Federal tax-basis treatment.

The following amounts were reclassified within the capital accounts (amounts in thousands):

 

        Paid-in-Capital        Accumulated
Undistributed
(Distributions in
Excess of)
Net  Investment
Income
       Accumulated
Net Realized

Value Advantage Fund

                 (950        950   

The reclassification for the Funds relate primarily to net operating losses, redesignation of distributions, investments in partnerships, investments in real estate investment trusts, adjustments to gain/loss due to redemptions in-kind, wash sale reversal disallowed and expiration of capital loss carryforward.

3. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

A. Investment Advisory Fee — Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreements, J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. the Adviser supervises the investments of each Fund and for such services is paid a fee.

B. Administration Fee — Pursuant to an Administration Agreement, the Administrator provides certain administration services to the Funds. In consideration of these services, the Administrator receives a fee accrued daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.15% of the first $25 billion of the average daily net assets of all funds in the J.P.

Additionally, the Funds may invest in one or more money market funds advised by the Adviser or its affiliates (affiliated money market funds).

G. Other — Certain officers of the Trusts are affiliated with the Adviser, the Administrator and the Distributor. Such officers, with the exception of the Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Funds for serving in their respective roles.

The Board appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Funds in accordance with Federal securities regulations.

Such fees are included in Trustees’ and Chief Compliance Officer’s fees on the Statements of Operations.

The Trusts adopted a Trustee Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) which allows the Independent Trustees to defer the receipt of all or a portion of compensation related to performance of their duties as Trustees. The deferred fees are invested in various J.P. Morgan Funds until distribution in accordance with the Plan.

For the Funds, the cumulative timing differences primarily consist of post-October capital loss deferrals, late year ordinary loss deferrals, loss deferrals on unsettled short sales and wash sale loss deferrals.

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (“the “Act”), net capital losses recognized by the Funds after June 30, 2011 are carried forward indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term losses. Prior to the Act, net capital losses incurred by the Funds were carried forward for eight years and treated as short-term losses. The Act requires that post-enactment net capital losses be used before pre-enactment net capital losses.

At June 30, 2016, the following Funds had pre-enactment net capital loss carryforwards, expiring during the years indicated, which are available to offset future realized gains (amounts in thousands):

6. Borrowings

The Funds rely upon an exemptive order granted by the SEC (the “Order”) permitting the establishment and operation of an Interfund Lending Facility (the “Facility”). The Facility allows the Funds to directly lend and borrow money to or from any other fund relying upon the Order at rates beneficial to both the borrowing and lending funds. Advances under the Facility are taken primarily for temporary or emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securities, and are subject to each Fund’s borrowing restrictions. The Interfund loan rate is determined, as specified in the Order, by averaging the current repurchase agreement rate and the current bank loan rate. The Order was granted to JPM II and may be relied upon by the Funds because the Funds and the series of JPM II are all investment companies in the same “group of investment companies” (as defined in Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act).

In addition, the Trusts and JPMCB have entered into a financing arrangement. Under this arrangement, JPMCB provides an unsecured, uncommitted credit facility in the aggregate amount of $100 million to certain of the J.P. Morgan Funds, including the Funds. Advances under the arrangement are taken primarily for temporary or emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securities, and are subject to each Fund’s borrowing restrictions. Interest on borrowings is payable at a rate determined by JPMCB at the time of borrowing. This agreement has been extended until November 7, 2016.

The Funds had no borrowings outstanding from another fund or from the unsecured, uncommitted credit facility at June 30, 2016, or at any time during the year then ended.

7. Redemptions in-Kind

During the year ended June 30, 2016, certain Select Class shareholders sold their shares of Mid Cap Growth Fund. The portfolio securities were delivered primarily by means of a redemption in-kind in exchange for shares of the Fund. Cash and portfolio securities were transferred as of the close of business on the date and at the market value listed below (amounts in thousands):

* This amount includes cash of approximately $25,788,000 associated with the redemption in-kind.

8. Risks, Concentrations and Indemnifications

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. The amount of exposure would depend on future claims that may be made against each Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

As of June 30, 2016, the J.P. Morgan Investor Funds and JPMorgan SmartRetirement Funds, which are affiliated funds of funds, owned in the aggregate, shares representing more than 10% of the net assets of certain Funds as follows:

 

        J.P. Morgan

Significant shareholder transactions by these shareholders may impact the Funds’ performance.

As of June 30, 2016, the Multi-Cap Market Neutral Fund pledged a significant portion of its assets for securities sold short to Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., who also held 100% of the Multi-Cap Market Neutral Fund’s cash proceeds for securities sold short.

9. Subsequent Event

Effective August 16, 2016, the Funds, together with certain other J.P. Morgan Funds (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into a joint syndicated senior unsecured revolving credit facility totaling $1.5 billion (“Credit Facility”) with various lenders and The Bank of New York Mellon, as administrative agent for the lenders. This Credit Facility provides a source of funds to the Borrowers for temporary and emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securities. The initial term of the Credit Facility is 364 days, unless extended.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Trustees of J.P. Morgan Mutual Fund Investment Trust, J.P. Morgan Fleming Mutual Fund Group, Inc., JPMorgan Trust I and JPMorgan Trust II and the Shareholders of JPMorgan Growth Advantage Fund, JPMorgan Mid Cap Equity Fund, JPMorgan Mid Cap Growth Fund, JPMorgan Mid Cap Value Fund, JPMorgan Multi-Cap Market Neutral Fund and JPMorgan Value Advantage Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of portfolio investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of JPMorgan Mid Cap Equity Fund and JPMorgan Value Advantage Fund (each a separate fund of JPMorgan Trust I), JPMorgan Mid Cap Growth Fund and JPMorgan Multi-Cap Market Neutral Fund (each a separate fund of JPMorgan Trust II), JPMorgan Growth Advantage Fund (a separate fund of J.P. Morgan Mutual Fund Investment Trust) and JPMorgan Mid Cap Value Fund (a separate fund of J.P. Morgan Fleming Mutual Fund Group, Inc.) (hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) at June 30, 2016, 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 then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at June 30, 2016 by correspondence with the transfer agent, custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

SCHEDULE OF SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES

(Unaudited)

Hypothetical $1,000 Investment

 

As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, administration fees, distribution fees and other Fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these ongoing costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples assume that you had a $1,000 investment in each Class at the beginning of the reporting period, January 1, 2016, and continued to hold your shares at the end of the reporting period, June 30, 2016.

Actual Expenses

For each Class of each Fund in the table below, the first line provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line of each Class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

 

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of each Class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Class’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Class of the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption fees. Therefore, the second line for each Class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher. The examples also assume all dividends and distributions have been reinvested.

ITEM 2. CODE OF ETHICS.

Disclose whether, as of the end of the period covered by the report, the registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, regardless of whether these individuals are employed by the registrant or a third party. If the registrant has not adopted such a code of ethics, explain why it has not done so.

The registrant must briefly describe the nature of any amendment, during the period covered by the report, to a provision of its code of ethics that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, regardless of whether these individuals are employed by the registrant or a third party, and that relates to any element of the code of ethics definition enumerated in paragraph (b) of this Item. The registrant must file a copy of any such amendment as an exhibit pursuant to Item 12(a)(1), unless the registrant has elected to satisfy paragraph (f) of this Item by positing its code of ethics on its website pursuant to paragraph (f)(2) of this Item, or by undertaking to provide its code of ethics to any person without charge, upon request, pursuant to paragraph (f)(3) of this Item.

If the registrant has, during the period covered by the report, granted a waiver, including an implicit waiver, from a provision of the code of ethics that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, regardless of whether these individuals are employed by the registrant or third party, that relates to one or more items set forth in paragraph (b) of this Item, the registrant must briefly describe the nature of the waiver, the name of the person to whom the waiver was granted, and the date of the waiver.

The Registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the Registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer. There were no amendments to the code of ethics or waivers granted with respect to the code of ethics in the period covered by the report.

 

ITEM 3. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT.

(a) (1) Disclose that the registrant’s board of directors has determined that the registrant either:

(i) Has at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee; or

(ii) Does not have an audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee.

The Registrant’s Board of Trustees has determined that the Registrant has at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. The Securities and Exchange Commission has stated that the designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial expert pursuant to this Item 3 of Form N-CSR does not impose on such person any duties, obligations or liabilities that are greater than the duties, obligations and liabilities imposed on such person as a member of the Audit Committee and the Board of Trustees in the absence of such designation or identification.

(2) If the registrant provides the disclosure required by paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this Item, it must disclose the name of the audit committee financial expert and whether that person is “independent.” In order to be considered “independent” for purposes of this Item, a member of an audit committee may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee:

(i) Accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the issuer; or

(ii) Be an “interested person” of the investment company as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Act (15 U.S.C. 80a-2(a)(19)).

Effective January 1, 2016, James Schonbachler replaced Mitchell Merin as the audit committee financial expert. He is not an “interested person” of the Registrant and is also “independent” as defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for purposes of audit committee financial expert determinations.

(3) If the registrant provides the disclosure required by paragraph (a)(1)(ii) of this Item, it must explain why it does not have an audit committee financial expert.

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.

(a) Disclose, under the caption Audit Fees, the aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years for professional

services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years.

(e) (1) Disclose the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures described in paragraph (c)(7) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

Pursuant to the Registrant’s Audit Committee Charter and written policies and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services (the “Pre-approval Policy”), the Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and non-audit services performed by the Registrant’s independent public registered accounting firm for the Registrant. In addition, the Audit Committee pre-approves the auditor’s engagement for non-audit services with the Registrant’s investment adviser (not including a sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is sub-contracted or overseen by another investment adviser) and any Service Affiliate in accordance with paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant. Proposed services may be pre-approved either 1) without consideration of specific case-by-case services or 2) require the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. Therefore, initially the Pre-approval Policy listed a number of audit and non-audit services that have been approved by the Audit Committee, or which were not subject to pre-approval under the transition provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Pre-approval List”). The Audit Committee annually reviews and pre-approves the

services included on the Pre-approval List that may be provided by the independent public registered accounting firm without obtaining additional specific pre-approval of individual services from the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee adds to, or subtracts from, the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations. All other audit and non-audit services not on the Pre-approval List must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

One or more members of the Audit Committee may be appointed as the Committee’s delegate for the purposes of considering whether to approve such services. Any pre-approvals granted by the delegate will be reported, for informational purposes only, to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee’s responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent public registered accounting firm are not delegated to management.

(2) Disclose the percentage of services described in each of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item that were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

2016 – 0.0%

2015 – 0.0%

(f) If greater than 50 percent, disclose the percentage of hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.

Not applicable - Less than 50%.

(g) Disclose the aggregate non-audit fees billed by the registrant’s accountant for services rendered to the registrant, and rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of the last two fiscal years of the registrant.

The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the independent registered public accounting firm for services rendered to the Registrant, and rendered to Service Affiliates, for the last two calendar year ends were:

2015 - $29.2 million

2014 - $30.6 million

(h) Disclose whether the registrant’s audit committee of the board of directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any subadviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

The Registrant’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of the non-audit services that were rendered to Service Affiliates that were not pre-approved (not requiring pre-approval) is compatible with maintaining the independent public registered accounting firm’s independence. All services provided by the independent public registered accounting firm to the Registrant or to Service Affiliates that were required to be pre-approved were pre-approved as required.
