Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager David Wagner:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund gained 1.09%, trailing the 4.27% advance of the MSCI U.S. IMI Chemicals 25/50 Linked Index, but outperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary detractor, especially within specialty chemicals. Stock selection in commodity chemicals and an overweighting in fertilizers & agricultural chemicals also hampered the fund's relative result. The fund's largest individual relative detractor was our lighter-than-index stake in Air Products & Chemicals, which gained 24% the past 12 months. The company was among our biggest holdings, and we increased the position. Also hampering performance was our overweighting in Huntsman, which returned roughly -34%. Huntsman was not held at period end. Also holding back performance was our overweighting in Element Solutions, which returned -15%. Conversely, the largest contributor to performance versus the industry index was an underweighting in specialty chemicals. Stock selection in fertilizers & agricultural chemicals and an overweighting in industrial gases also helped the fund's relative result. The fund's largest individual relative contributor was an outsized stake in Orion Engineered Carbons, which gained 64% the past year. Also lifting performance was our overweighting in Linde, which gained about 20%. The company was the fund's largest holding. Another notable relative contributor was an outsized stake in Chemours (+28%), which was one of our biggest holdings at period end. Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the commodity chemicals subindustry and a lower allocation to diversified chemicals.

1. Organization.
Chemicals Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.   Share transactions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets may contain exchanges between affiliated funds. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Fund invests primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.  
 
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, deferred Trustees compensation and losses deferred due to wash sales.

Gross unrealized appreciation
$255,745,309

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and an annualized group fee rate that averaged .23% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, the total annual management fee rate was .53% of the Fund's average net assets.
 
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company LLC (FIIOC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual rate of .18% of average net assets.
 
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for each month. For the period, the fees were equivalent to the following annual rates:

Interfund Trades. Funds may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Any interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note. Interfund trades during the period are noted in the table below.

6. Committed Line of Credit.
Certain Funds participate with other funds managed by the investment adviser or an affiliate in a $4.25 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The participating funds have agreed to pay commitment fees on their pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which are reflected in Miscellaneous expenses on the Statement of Operations, and are listed below. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.

$1,272
7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

8. Expense Reductions.
During the period the investment adviser or an affiliate reimbursed and/or waived a portion of operating expenses in the amount of $24,670.
9. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
10. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Gold Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Steven Calhoun:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund's share classes (excluding sales charges, if applicable) returned roughly -20% to -19%, roughly in line with the -19.56% return of the S&P Global BMI Gold Capped Index 20/45 Linked Index, but underperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary contributor, led by choices in the diversified metals & mining group. One of the biggest individual relative contributors was an overweight position in Orla Mining (+10%). Orla Mining was among the fund's largest holdings. Another top relative contributor was an out-of-index stake in Gatos Silver (+20%). The fund's non-index investment in Triple Flag Precious Metals also meaningfully contributed, gaining 18%. In contrast, the largest detractor from performance versus the industry index was our stock selection in gold. Weak-performing stock picks in copper also hurt relative performance. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was an underweighting in Zijin Mining, which gained roughly 2% the past 12 months. The company was among the largest holdings at period end. Another notable relative detractor was an outsized stake in Marathon Gold (-70%). Another notable relative detractor was an overweighting in Wesdome Gold Mines (-58%).

The Funds included in the table below hold certain commodity-related investments through a wholly owned subsidiary (the "Subsidiary"). As of period end, the investments in the Subsidiaries, were as follows:
 
 
Subsidiary Name
$ Amount
% of Fund's Net Assets
Gold Portfolio
Fidelity Select Gold Cayman Ltd.
10,218,783
.7
 
The financial statements have been consolidated to include the Subsidiary accounts where applicable. Accordingly, all inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
3. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The   Consolidated Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

4. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The   consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the   consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the   consolidated financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the   consolidated financial statements. The Fund's   Consolidated Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.  
 
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in commodities are valued at their last traded price at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the   Consolidated Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in foreign taxes withheld. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Class Allocations and Expenses. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, common expenses of a fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated daily on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of a fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred, as applicable. Certain expense reductions may also differ by class, if applicable. For the reporting period, the allocated portion of income and expenses to each class as a percent of its average net assets may vary due to the timing of recording these transactions in relation to fluctuating net assets of the classes. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying   consolidated financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying   Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the   consolidated financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
The Subsidiary is classified as a controlled foreign corporation under Subchapter N of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, the Fund is required to increase its taxable income by its share of the Subsidiary's income.   Net investment losses of the Subsidiary cannot be deducted by the Fund in the current period nor carried forward to offset taxable income in future periods.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the   consolidated financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), controlled foreign corporations, deferred Trustees compensation, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales.
 
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
 
Gross unrealized appreciation
$390,850,953
Gross unrealized depreciation
(187,874,314)
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)
$202,976,639

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. During the period, certain Funds transacted in securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. Securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the   Consolidated Schedule of Investments. Compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued debt security may be received. With respect to purchase commitments, each applicable Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Payables and receivables associated with the purchases and sales of delayed delivery securities having the same coupon, settlement date and broker are offset. Delayed delivery or when-issued securities that have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected as both payables and receivables in the   Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities under the caption "Delayed delivery", as applicable. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.
 
Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Consolidated Schedule of Investments, if applicable.
 
New Accounting Pronouncement. In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this ASU clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. They also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. They also require additional disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. ASU 2022-03 will be effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, and allows for early adoption. ASU 2022-03 will only be applicable to an equity security in which the contractual arrangement that restricts its sale is executed or modified on or after the adoption date. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2022-03 to the financial statements.

6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and an annualized group fee rate that averaged .23% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, the total annual management fee rate was .53% of the Fund's average net assets.
 
The investment adviser, either through itself or through an affiliate provides investment management related services to the Subsidiary. The Subsidiary does not pay the investment adviser a fee for these services. Under the management contract with the subsidiary, the investment adviser pays all other expenses of the Subsidiary, except custodian fees.
 
Distribution and Service Plan Fees. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares. Certain classes pay Fidelity Distributors Company LLC (FDC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, separate Distribution and Service Fees, each of which is based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. In addition, FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the Fund and providing shareholder support services. For the period, the Distribution and Service Fee rates, total fees and amounts retained by FDC were as follows:

8. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the   Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the   Consolidated Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
13. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Materials Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Co-Manager Ashley Fernandes:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund's share classes (excluding sales charges, if applicable) returned about 0% to 1%, roughly in line with the 0.65% advance of the MSCI U.S. IMI Materials 25/50 Linked Index and well ahead of the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The top contributors to performance versus the sector index were stock selection and an underweighting in specialty chemicals. Also bolstering the fund's relative result was an overweighting in fertilizers & agricultural chemicals. The fund's largest individual relative contributor was an outsized stake in CF Industries Holdings, which gained roughly 9% the past 12 months. The company was among our largest holdings. Also bolstering performance was our overweighting in Albemarle, which gained roughly 27%. We decreased our investment the past year. Another notable relative contributor was an underweighting in Sherwin Williams (-12%), a position not held at period end. In contrast, a notable detractor from performance versus the sector index was an underweighting in steel. An overweighting and security selection in aluminum and stock selection in copper also hindered the fund's relative result. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was an outsized stake in Alcoa, which returned -34% the past 12 months. Our second-largest relative detractor this period was avoiding Nucor, an index component that gained approximately 29%. Also hindering performance was our overweighting in Tronox Holdings, which returned -21%. Notable changes in positioning include a higher allocation to the commodity chemicals and industrial gases subindustries.
Note to shareholders: On January 1, 2023, Ashley Fernandes assumed sole management responsibilities for the fund after having served as co-manager with Jody Simes since April 2022.

1. Organization.
Materials Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Fund invests primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries. The Fund offers Fidelity Advisor Materials Fund Class A (Class A), Fidelity Advisor Materials Fund Class M (Class M), Fidelity Advisor Materials Fund Class C (Class C), Materials Portfolio (Materials), Fidelity Advisor Materials Fund Class I (Class I) and Fidelity Advisor Materials Fund Class Z (Class Z) shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class C shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of eight years from the initial date of purchase, with certain exceptions.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.  
 
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Class Allocations and Expenses. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, common expenses of a fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated daily on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of a fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred, as applicable. Certain expense reductions may also differ by class, if applicable. For the reporting period, the allocated portion of income and expenses to each class as a percent of its average net assets may vary due to the timing of recording these transactions in relation to fluctuating net assets of the classes. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, deferred Trustees compensation, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and an annualized group fee rate that averaged .23% during the period.

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

11. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
12. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and Shareholders of Chemicals Portfolio, Gold Portfolio and Materials Portfolio
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of each of the funds listed in the table below (three of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of February 28, 2023, the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets for each of the periods indicated in the table below, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated in the table below (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2023, and the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets, and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated in the table below, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' 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 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 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 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 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 financial statements.   Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodians 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.

The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the funds is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The funds' Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544 if you're an individual investing directly with Fidelity, call 1-800-835-5092 if you're a plan sponsor or participant with Fidelity as your recordkeeper or call 1-877-208-0098 on institutional accounts or if you're an advisor or invest through one.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds' Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the funds' Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds' activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds' business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds' exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds' activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds' Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds' Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The funds will notify shareholders in January 2024 of amounts for use in preparing 2023 income tax returns.
 
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. Each Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factor specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable. 
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Automotive Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Hiroki Sugihara:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -16.92%, underperforming the -15.57% result of the FactSet Automotive Linked Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary detractor, especially within auto parts & equipment category. Subpar picks and an underweighting among automotive retail stocks, in addition to an underweighting in motorcycle manufacturers, also hurt. The biggest individual relative detractor was an overweight position in Xpeng (-75%). Outsized exposure to Carvana (-93%) also proved detrimental. Avoiding BorgWarner, an index component that gained roughly 25%, further weighed on relative performance. In contrast, the top contributor to performance versus the industry index proved to be investment choices among automobile manufacturers. An overweighting in auto parts & equipment companies, as well as picks in the trucking group, aided the portfolio's relative result. The biggest individual relative contributor was an underweight position in NIO (-59%), though we reduced our investment during the period. Also adding value was an outsized stake in Tesla, which returned approximately -29% and was among the portfolio's more sizable holdings. Another key relative contributor was an overweighting in O'Reilly Automotive (+28%), one of the fund's largest holdings on February 28. Notable changes in positioning the past 12 months include a higher allocation to both distributors and auto parts & equipment stocks.
Notes to shareholders:
On August 1, 2022, Elliot Mattingly came off the fund, leaving Hiroki Sugihara as sole portfolio manager of the fund.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.09 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .54%.
 
E Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.10 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .20%.
 
F Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.14 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been (.21)%.
 
G Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.09 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been 1.07%.
 
H Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) per share reflects proceeds received from litigation which amounted to $.19 per share. Excluding these litigation proceeds, the total return would have been 8.58%.
 
I The amount shown reflects reclassifications related to book to tax differences that were made in the year shown.
 
J Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
K Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
L Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
M Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
N Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Communication Services Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Matthew Drukker:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund's share classes (excluding sales charges, if applicable) returned roughly -21% to -20%, outperforming the -23.61% result of the MSCI US IMI Communication Services 25/50 (Media Linked) Index, but underperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The primary contributors to performance versus the sector index were security selection and an overweight in the movies & entertainment industry. Picks among trucking stocks and an overweight in the wireless telecommunication services category also lifted the fund's relative result. The biggest individual relative contributor was an overweight position in T-Mobile U.S. (+14%), one portfolio's more sizable holdings at period end. Also lifting performance was an outsized stake in Netflix, which returned approximately -18%. We added to our position in the company this past year. Adding further value was the fund's non-index investment in Uber Technologies (-6%), one of our largest holdings as of February 28. In contrast, the largest detractor from performance versus the sector index was an underweighting among integrated telecommunication services firms. Stock picks and an overweighting in the interactive media & services group, as well as investment choices in the internet & direct marketing retail industry, also hindered relative performance. The biggest individual relative detractor was an overweight position in Snap (-75%). A smaller-than-index stake in AT&T (+11%), where we reduced our holding size this period, hurt as well. Another notable relative detractor was a larger-than-index position in Liberty Broadband (-40%), which was among the fund's biggest holdings. Notable changes in positioning include a higher allocation to the cable & satellite industry and movies & entertainment stocks.

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Construction and Housing Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Jordan Michaels:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -0.70%, outperforming the -2.34% result of the MSCI US IMI Construction & Housing 25/50 Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary contributor, led by choices in the construction & engineering group. Also helping was stock selection and an underweighting in residential REITs. The fund's biggest individual relative contributor was an overweighting in WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings, which gained 44% the past year. Though we decreased our stake, the company was among the biggest holdings as of February 28. Our second-largest relative contributor this period was avoiding AvalonBay Communities, an index component that returned approximately -25%. Another top relative contributor was an out-of-index position in Tempur Sealy International (+31%). We reduced the size of our position this period. In contrast, the largest detractor from performance versus the industry index was security selection in internet services & infrastructure. An underweighting in the outperforming construction & engineering group also modestly hurt, as did stock selection in real estate services. Our non-index stake in Cyxtera Technologies was the fund's largest individual relative detractor, due to its roughly -82% result. Also hurting performance was our outsized stake in Elme Communities, which returned about -17%. We reduced our holdings this period. The fund's non-index investment in Cushman & Wakefield returned -41%, and we increased the fund's holdings. Notable changes in positioning include a higher allocation to the homebuilding and construction & engineering subindustries.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
E Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
F Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
G Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
H Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Consumer Discretionary Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Jordan Michaels:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -16.87%, trailing the -15.75% result of the MSCI US IMI Consumer Discretionary 25/50 Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The largest detractors from performance versus the sector index were an underweighting and security selection in the restaurants group. An underweighting and stock picks in automotive retail and security selection in apparel retail also hurt. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was our lighter-than-index stake in Mcdonalds, which gained about 10% the past year. We increased our stake this period, and it was among the fund's largest holdings as of February 28. Our second-largest relative detractor this period was avoiding Starbucks, an index component that gained 14%. Also hindering performance was our overweighting in Capri Holdings, which returned -27%. We reduced our stake in Capri Holdings the past 12 months. Conversely, the biggest contributor to performance versus the sector index was stock selection in hotels, resorts & cruise lines. Stock selection and an overweighting in footwear and an overweighting in apparel retail also bolstered the fund's relative performance. The fund's biggest individual relative contributor was an outsized stake in Deckers Outdoor, which gained about 45% the past 12 months. Also helping performance was our overweighting in TJX Companies, which gained 18%. TJX Companies was among the fund's biggest holdings. Another notable relative contributor was an outsized stake in Dicks Sporting Goods (+26%). This period we added to our stake. Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the general merchandise stores subindustry and a lower allocation to apparel, accessories & luxury goods.
Note to shareholders: On October 1, 2022, Jordan Michaels assumed sole management responsibilities for the fund after having served as co-manager with Katherine Shaw since July 2022.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
E Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
F Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
G Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
H Portfolio turnover rate excludes securities received or delivered in-kind.
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Kevin Francfort:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -0.22%, roughly in line with the -0.19% return of the MSCI US IMI Consumer Services 25/50 Index, but outperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary contributor, led by choices in the hotels, resorts & cruise lines group. Also helping was stock selection and an underweighting in leisure facilities. Our lighter-than-index investment in Expedia, a position we established this period, was the fund's largest individual relative contributor because the stock returned about -44% the past 12 months. Our second-largest contributor this period was Wingstop, an investment we established this period. The stock gained 95% the past year and contributed meaningfully to relative performance. Another notable relative contributor was our lighter-than-index position in Carnival (-48%). We established a small position later in the period and our stake gained 5%. The fund's foreign holdings also contributed overall despite a broadly strong U.S. dollar. In contrast, the largest detractor from performance versus the industry index was our stock selection in casinos & gaming. An underweighting and security selection in restaurants and stock picks in soft drinks also hurt the fund's relative performance. The biggest individual relative detractor was an overweight position in Caesars Entertainment (-39%). Caesars Entertainment was among the fund's largest holdings the past 12 months, though we reduced our stake. Also hurting performance was our lighter-than-index stake in Starbucks, which gained 14%. We added to our stake the past year. Another notable relative detractor was an overweighting in Dominos Pizza (-31%), which was among our biggest holdings even though we trimmed the position this period.
Note to shareholders: On March 1, 2023, Kevin Francfort assumed sole management responsibilities for the fund after having served as co-manager with Will Hilkert since September 2022.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the 10 for 1 share split that occurred on August 10, 2018.
 
C Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
D Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
E Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
F Amount represents less than $.005 per share.
 
G Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
H Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
I Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
J Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Boris Shepov:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -13.86%, trailing the -11.69% result of the MSCI US IMI Retailing 25/50 Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, subindustry allocation decisions proved to be the primary detractor, especially an underweighting within automotive retail. Security selection in apparel retail and an underweighting in distributors also hurt. Not owning AutoZone, an index component that gained approximately 33%, was the largest individual relative detractor. Also hampering performance was an overweight in Amazon.com, which returned about -39% and was the fund's biggest holding on February 28. Avoiding Genuine Parts, an index component that increased roughly 48%, further pressured the portfolio's relative result. In contrast, the largest contributors to performance versus the industry index were an overweighting and security selection among department stores. Investment choices and outsized exposure to general merchandise stores, along with favorable picks in the footwear category, also bolstered the fund's relative return. The top individual relative contributor within the portfolio was an outsized investment in Nordstrom, which gained 16%. This is a position that was sold the past year. Also lifting performance was a larger-than-index stake in Ollie's Bargain Outlet Holdings, which gained rose 33%. Another notable relative contributor was an overweight in Five Below (+22%), where we reduced our stake this period. Noteworthy changes in positioning the past 12 months include increased exposure to general merchandise stores and a lower allocation to apparel, accessories & luxury goods stocks.
Notes to shareholders:
On June 1, 2023, following an update to the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS), the fund's benchmark will change from the MSCI U.S. IMI Retailing 25/50 Index to the MSCI U.S. IMI Multi-Sector Retailing 25/50 Index. This new benchmark will better reflect the fund's investment mandate by capturing retailers across multiple industries.

C Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.

F Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
G Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
H Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class.

For the period ended February 28, 2023
 
1. Organization.
Automotive Portfolio, Communication Services Portfolio, Construction and Housing Portfolio, Consumer Discretionary Portfolio, Leisure Portfolio, and Retailing Portfolio (the Funds) are non-diversified funds of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Each Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Each Fund offers a single class of shares, with the exception of Communication Services Portfolio. Communication Services Portfolio offers Fidelity Advisor Communication Services Fund Class A (Class A), Fidelity Advisor Communication Services Fund Class M (Class M), Fidelity Advisor Communication Services Fund Class C (Class C), Communication Services Portfolio (Communication Services), Fidelity Advisor Communication Services Fund Class I (Class I) and Fidelity Advisor Communication Services Class Z (Class Z) shares. Each class of Communication Services Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges, and each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class C shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of eight years from the initial date of purchase, with certain exceptions. The Funds invest primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries. Share transactions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Share Transactions note may contain exchanges between affiliated funds.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
Each Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. Each Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of each Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, each Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages each Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. Each Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
 
Each Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value each Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of each Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds' investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and for certain Funds include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Funds represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Funds determine the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Large, non-recurring dividends recognized by the Funds are presented separately on the Statement of Operations as "Special Dividends" and the impact of these dividends is presented in the Financial Highlights. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Class Allocations and Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
For Communication Services Portfolio, investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, common expenses, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated daily on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions may also differ by class. For the reporting period, the allocated portion of income and expenses to each class as a percent of its average net assets may vary due to the timing of recording these transactions in relation to fluctuating net assets of the classes.
 
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, each Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is each Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. Each Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on each Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, certain Funds claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), net operating losses, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
 
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows for each Fund:

Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.
 
Special Purpose Acquisition Companies. Funds may invest in stock, warrants, and other securities of special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) or similar special purpose entities. A SPAC is a publicly traded company that raises investment capital via an initial public offering (IPO) for the purpose of acquiring the equity securities of one or more existing companies via merger, business combination, acquisition or other similar transactions within a designated time frame.
 
Private Investment in Public Equity. Funds may acquire equity securities of an issuer through a private investment in a public equity (PIPE) transaction, including through commitments to purchase securities on a when-issued basis. A PIPE typically involves the purchase of securities directly from a publicly traded company in a private placement transaction. Securities purchased through PIPE transactions will be restricted from trading and considered illiquid until a resale registration statement for the shares is filed and declared effective.
 
At the current and/or prior period end, Retailing Portfolio had commitments to purchase when-issued securities through PIPE transactions with SPACs. The commitments are contingent upon the SPACs acquiring the securities of target companies. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on any commitments outstanding at period end is separately presented in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on unfunded commitments, and any change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on unfunded commitments during the period is separately presented in the Statement of Operations, as applicable.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Funds with investment management related services for which the Funds pay a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate and an annualized group fee rate. The individual fund fee rate is applied to each Fund's average net assets. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease.

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

8. Bank Borrowings.
Each Fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity requirements. Each Fund has established borrowing arrangements with certain banks. The interest rate on the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. Any open loans, including accrued interest, at period end are presented under the caption "Notes payable" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable.

12. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
13. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and the Shareholders of Automotive Portfolio, Communication Services Portfolio, Construction and Housing Portfolio, Consumer Discretionary Portfolio, Leisure Portfolio and Retailing Portfolio
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Automotive Portfolio, Communication Services Portfolio, Construction and Housing Portfolio, Consumer Discretionary Portfolio, Leisure Portfolio and Retailing Portfolio (six of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of February 28, 2023, the related statements of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2023, 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 February 28, 2023 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.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' 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 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 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 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 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 financial statements.   Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodian, issuers of privately offered securities 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.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and funds, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs each fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the funds is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The funds' Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544 if you're an individual investing directly with Fidelity, call 1-800-835-5092 if you're a plan sponsor or participant with Fidelity as your recordkeeper or call 1-877-208-0098 on institutional accounts or if you're an advisor or invest through one.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds' Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the funds' Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds' activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds' business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds' exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds' activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds' Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds' Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. Each Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factor specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable. 
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Rajiv Kaul:
For the fiscal year, the fund gained 1.14%, trailing the 10.57% advance of the MSCI US IMI Biotechnology 25/50 Index, but outperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary detractor, especially within biotechnology. We also had weak stock picks in pharmaceuticals and life sciences tools & services. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was a lighter-than-index stake in Gilead Sciences, which gained about 39% the past year. We decreased our stake this period. Also hindering performance was an overweighting in Arcus Biosciences, which returned -51%. Also holding back performance was our lighter-than-index investment in Horizon Therapeutics, which gained 20%. Horizon Therapeutics was not held at period end. The fund's top individual relative contributor was our outsized position in Biohaven Pharmaceutical Holding, which gained 19%. The company was acquired by Pfizer in October and then spun out as a newly independent company, trading under the same ticker symbol. The fund retained a position in the new company at period end. Also lifting performance was an underweighting in Novavax, which returned -89%. Novavax was not held at period end. Another key contributor was our out-of-index position in Roivant Sciences (+28%).

The information used in the above reconciliation represents fiscal year to date activity for any Investments in Securities identified as using Level 3 inputs at either the beginning or the end of the current fiscal period. Cost of purchases and proceeds of sales may include securities received and/or delivered through in-kind transactions. Transfers into Level 3 were attributable to a lack of observable market data resulting from decreases in market activity, decreases in liquidity, security restructurings or corporate actions. Transfers out of Level 3 were attributable to observable market data becoming available for those securities. Transfers in or out of Level 3 represent the beginning value of any Security or Instrument where a change in the pricing level occurred from the beginning to the end of the period. The cost of purchases and the proceeds of sales may include securities received or delivered through corporate actions or exchanges. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) disclosed in the reconciliation are included in Net Gain (Loss) on the Fund's Statement of Operations.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the 10 for 1 share split that occurred on August 10, 2018.
 
C Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
D Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
E Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) per share reflects proceeds received from litigation which amounted to $.01 per share. Excluding these litigation proceeds, the total return would have been (.53)%.
 
F Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
G Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
H Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
I Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
J Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Health Care Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Eddie Yoon:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -2.05%, roughly in line with the -1.92% result of the MSCI US IMI Health Care 25/50 Index, but outperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the sector index, security selection was the primary contributor, led by the health care equipment sector. Security selection in health care services also helped. The fund's largest individual relative contributor was an overweighting in Oak Street Health, which gained 99% the past 12 months. We decreased our stake in this company. Also adding value was our outsized stake in Penumbra, which gained about 17%. Penumbra was among the fund's largest holdings. Another notable relative contributor was an overweighting in Humana (+15%). This period we reduced our stake. Conversely, the primary detractor from performance versus the sector index were stock picks in biotechnology. An underweighting in pharmaceuticals and security selection in health care facilities also hindered the fund's relative result. An underweighting in Merck, a stake we established this period, was the fund's biggest individual relative detractor because the stock gained 43% the past year. Also hampering performance was our outsized stake in Tandem Diabetes Care, which returned -68%. We added to our investment the past 12 months. Avoiding Gilead Sciences, an index component that gained approximately 39%, also hurt relative performance. The fund's foreign holdings modestly detracted overall, partly due to a broadly strong U.S. dollar. Notable changes in positioning include a higher allocation to the health care services and health care equipment subindustries.

The information used in the above reconciliation represents fiscal year to date activity for any Investments in Securities identified as using Level 3 inputs at either the beginning or the end of the current fiscal period. Cost of purchases and proceeds of sales may include securities received and/or delivered through in-kind transactions. Transfers into Level 3 were attributable to a lack of observable market data resulting from decreases in market activity, decreases in liquidity, security restructurings or corporate actions. Transfers out of Level 3 were attributable to observable market data becoming available for those securities. Transfers in or out of Level 3 represent the beginning value of any Security or Instrument where a change in the pricing level occurred from the beginning to the end of the period. The cost of purchases and the proceeds of sales may include securities received or delivered through corporate actions or exchanges. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) disclosed in the reconciliation are included in Net Gain (Loss) on the Fund's Statement of Operations.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the 10 for 1 share split that occurred on August 10, 2018.
 
C Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
D Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
E Amount represents less than $.005 per share.
 
F The amount shown reflects reclassifications related to book to tax differences that were made in the year shown.
 
G Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
H Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
I Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
J Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
K Portfolio turnover rate excludes securities received or delivered in-kind.
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Health Care Services Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Justin Segalini:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -0.64%, trailing the -0.37% result of the MSCI US IMI Health Care Providers & Services 25/50 Index, but outperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, stock selection in health care facilities hurt most, followed by an underweighting within health care distributors. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was an overweighting in Surgery Partners, which returned roughly -36% the past year. We increased our stake in this company. Also holding back performance was our overweighting in Tenet Healthcare, which returned -45%. Tenet Healthcare was not held at period end. Avoiding Cardinal Health, an index component that gained about 45%, also hurt relative performance. Conversely, the top contributor to performance versus the industry index was stock selection in health care services. Security selection in health care technology and health care distributors also boosted the fund's relative performance. The biggest individual relative contributor was an underweight position in CVS Health (-17%), which was among our largest holdings. Also adding value was our outsized stake in Cigna Group, which gained roughly 24%. Cigna was among the fund's biggest holdings. Another notable relative contributor was an overweighting in Humana (+15%), which was one of our largest holdings. Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the health care distributors subindustry and a lower allocation to health care facilities.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D The amount shown reflects reclassifications related to book to tax differences that were made in the year shown.
 
E Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
F Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
G Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
H Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
I Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Eddie Yoon:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -11.64%, outperforming the -13.45% result of the MSCI U.S. IMI Custom Health Care Technology and Equipment 25/50 Linked Index, but underperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The top contributor to performance versus the industry index were stock picks in health care equipment. An overweighting in life sciences tools & services and security selection in health care technology also helped. The fund's biggest individual relative contributor was an outsized stake in Penumbra, which gained about 18% the past year. The company was among our biggest holdings. Also bolstering performance was our overweighting in Boston Scientific, which gained 6%. Boston Scientific was among our largest holdings. Avoiding Baxter Intl, an index component that returned -52%, also helped relative performance. The fund's foreign holdings also contributed overall despite a broadly strong U.S. dollar. In contrast, the biggest detractor from performance versus the industry index was stock selection in life sciences tools & services. Weak stock selection in specialty stores and personal products - two groups that were not part of the index - also hindered the fund's relative result. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was an outsized stake in Tandem Diabetes Care, which returned -68% the past 12 months. Also hindering performance was our overweighting in Nevro, which returned -56%. Also hurting performance was an underweighting in Dexcom, which gained roughly 7%. We decreased our position the past year.

The information used in the above reconciliation represents fiscal year to date activity for any Investments in Securities identified as using Level 3 inputs at either the beginning or the end of the current fiscal period. Cost of purchases and proceeds of sales may include securities received and/or delivered through in-kind transactions. Transfers into Level 3 were attributable to a lack of observable market data resulting from decreases in market activity, decreases in liquidity, security restructurings or corporate actions. Transfers out of Level 3 were attributable to observable market data becoming available for those securities. Transfers in or out of Level 3 represent the beginning value of any Security or Instrument where a change in the pricing level occurred from the beginning to the end of the period. The cost of purchases and the proceeds of sales may include securities received or delivered through corporate actions or exchanges. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) disclosed in the reconciliation are included in Net Gain (Loss) on the Fund's Statement of Operations.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
E Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
F Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
G Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Karim Suwwan de Felipe:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund gained 1.60%, outperforming the -1.60% result of the MSCI North America IMI + ADR Custom Pharmaceuticals 25/50 Linked Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary contributor, led by the pharmaceuticals sector. The fund's largest individual relative contributor was an outsized stake in Eli Lilly, which gained roughly 25% the past year. It was the fund's largest holding. Also helping performance was an underweighting in GSK, which returned -32%. Avoiding Pfizer, an index component that returned about -11%, also helped relative performance. Conversely, the largest detractor from performance versus the industry index were stock picks in life sciences tools & services. Weak stock picks in health care equipment also hurt the fund's relative performance. Our non-index investment in Roche Holdings was the fund's biggest individual relative detractor, due to its roughly -23% result. This was among our largest holdings. Another notable relative detractor was our lighter-than-index stake in Merck (+43%). The company was among the fund's biggest holdings. Also hurting performance was an underweighting in Novo-Nordisk, which gained about 39%. The company was among the largest holdings at period end. The fund's foreign holdings also detracted overall, partly due to a broadly strong U.S. dollar.   Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the biotechnology subindustry.

For the period ended February 28, 2023
 
1. Organization.
Biotechnology Portfolio, Health Care Portfolio, Health Care Services Portfolio, Medical Technology and Devices Portfolio, and Pharmaceuticals Portfolio (the Funds) are non-diversified funds of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust).   The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Funds invest primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries. Each Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.   Share transactions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets may contain exchanges between affiliated funds.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
Each Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. Each Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of each Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, each Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages each Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. Each Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.  
 
Each Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value each Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy. Securities, including private placements or other restricted securities, for which observable inputs are not available are valued using alternate valuation approaches, including the market approach, the income approach and cost approach, and are categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy. The market approach considers factors including the price of recent investments in the same or a similar security or financial metrics of comparable securities. The income approach considers factors including expected future cash flows, security specific risks and corresponding discount rates. The cost approach considers factors including the value of the security's underlying assets and liabilities.
 
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing services or from brokers who make markets in such securities. Preferred securities are valued by pricing services who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing services. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances.  
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
The following provides information on Level 3 securities held by the Fund that were valued at period end based on unobservable inputs. These amounts exclude valuations provided by a broker.

A   Represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that could have resulted from an increase in the corresponding input as of period end. A decrease to the unobservable input would have had the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs may have resulted in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at period end.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023, as well as a roll forward of Level 3 investments, is included at the end of each Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds' investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and for certain Funds include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends or foreign tax reclaims. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable or reclaims receivable.
 
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, each Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is each Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. Each Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on each Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences resulted in distribution reclassifications. In addition, certain Funds claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), deferred Trustee compensation, capital loss carryforwards, partnerships, net operating losses and   losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
 
 
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows for each Fund:
 
 
Tax cost
Gross unrealized appreciation
Gross unrealized depreciation

Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.
 
 
Consolidated Subsidiary. The Funds included in the table below hold certain investments through a wholly-owned subsidiary ("Subsidiary"), which may be subject to federal and state taxes upon disposition.
 
As of period end, investments in Subsidiaries were as follows:

The financial statements have been consolidated to include the Subsidiary accounts where applicable. Accordingly, all inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
 
At period end, any estimated tax liability for these investments is presented as "Deferred taxes" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and included in "Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities" in the Statement of Operations. The tax liability incurred may differ materially depending on conditions when these investments are disposed. Any cash held by a Subsidiary is restricted as to its use and is presented as "Restricted cash" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable.
 
New Accounting Pronouncement. In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this ASU clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. They also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. They also require additional disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. ASU 2022-03 will be effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, and allows for early adoption. ASU 2022-03 will only be applicable to an equity security in which the contractual arrangement that restricts its sale is executed or modified on or after the adoption date. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2022-03 to the financial statements.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Funds with investment management related services for which the Funds pay a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate and an annualized group fee rate. The individual fund fee rate is applied to each Fund's average net assets. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, each Fund's annual management fee rate expressed as a percentage of each Fund's average net assets was as follows:

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

9. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
10. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
 
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and Shareholders of Biotechnology Portfolio, Health Care Portfolio, Health Care Services Portfolio, Medical Technology and Devices Portfolio and Pharmaceuticals Portfolio
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Biotechnology Portfolio, Health Care Portfolio, Health Care Services Portfolio, Medical Technology and Devices Portfolio, and Pharmaceuticals Portfolio (five of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of February 28, 2023, the related statements of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2023, 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 February 28, 2023 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' 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 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 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 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 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodians, issuers of privately offered securities 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.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and funds, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs each fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the funds is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The funds' Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds' Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the funds' Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds' activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds' business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds' exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds' activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds' Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds' Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. Each Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factor specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable. 
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Matthew Reed:
For the fiscal year, the fund returned -11.27%, outperforming the -12.37% result of the MSCI US IMI Banks 5% Capped Linked Index, but underperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The top contributor to performance versus the industry index was an overweighting in diversified banks. Stock selection and an underweighting in regional banks and stock picks in thrifts & mortgage finance also helped. Not owning SVB Financial Group, an index component that returned roughly -52%, was the largest individual relative contributor. The fund's non-index position in State Street gained approximately 7% and helped. Another notable relative contributor was an outsized stake in M&T Bank (-13%), which was one of our largest holdings. Conversely, the primary detractor from performance versus the industry index was stock picks in diversified banks. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was an overweighting in Signature Bank, which returned -66% the past year. Also holding back performance was our outsized stake in PacWest Bancorp, which returned -42%. Avoiding Regions Financial, an index component that returned about 0%, also hurt relative performance. Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the diversified banks subindustry and a lower allocation to thrifts & mortgage finance.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
E Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
F Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
G Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Charles Ackerman:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -2.98%, outperforming the -4.33% result of the MSCI US IMI Capital Markets 5% Capped Linked Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary contributor, led by the investment banking & brokerage sector. The fund's largest individual relative contributor was an overweighting in LPL Financial Holdings, which gained 38% the past 12 months. We decreased our investment in this company. Also adding value was our outsized stake in Ameriprise Financial, which gained 16%. Ameriprise Financial was among the fund's biggest holdings. Another key contributor was our out-of-index position in Apollo Global Management (+11%). We trimmed our stake. In contrast, the biggest detractor from performance versus the industry index was security selection in data processing & outsourced services. An underweighting in the outperforming investment banking & brokerage group and stock selection in diversified banks also modestly hindered the fund's relative performance. An underweighting in Jefferies Financial Group was the fund's largest individual relative detractor given the stock's 51% gain the past year. Also holding back performance was an underweighting in Federated Hermes, which gained about 24%. Federated Hermes was not held at period end. Also hampering performance was an underweighting in Goldman Sachs Group, which gained 6%.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
E Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
F Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
G Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
H Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Financial Services Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Matthew Reed:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -3.30%, outperforming the -4.87% result of the MSCI US IMI Financials 5% Capped Linked Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The primary contributor to performance versus the sector index was an overweighting among reinsurance firms. Stock picks and an underweighting in the financial exchanges & data industry, as well as security selection in the life & health insurance category, also helped. The biggest individual relative contributor was an overweight position in Reinsurance Group of America (+33%), one of the fund's largest holdings on February 28. Also boosting value was the portfolio's outsized stake in Arthur J. Gallaghar, which gained 20%. Another notable relative contributor was an overweighting in Primerica (+50%). In contrast, the largest detractor from performance versus the sector index was investment choices among property & casualty insurance providers. Security selection and an underweighting in the investment banking & brokerage group, in addition to an underweighting in the life & health insurance industry, further hampered relative performance. The biggest individual relative detractor was an overweight position in Signature Bank (-66%). Our second-largest relative detractor this period was the decision to avoid Progressive, an index component that gained 36%. An outsized stake in Virtu Financial (-45%) proved detrimental as well. Notable changes in positioning include decreased exposure to the consumer finance industry and a higher allocation to property & casualty insurance stocks.
Notes to shareholders:
On April 28, 2023, the fund's name will change to Fidelity Select Financials Portfolio, in alignment with an update to the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS).

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the 10 for 1 share split that occurred on August 10, 2018.
 
C Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
D Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
E Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
F Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
G Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
H Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
I Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
J Portfolio turnover rate excludes securities received or delivered in-kind.
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

FinTech Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Ruth Nagle:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -14.51%, outperforming the -15.60% return of the FactSet Financial Technologies Linked Index, but underperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary contributor, led by the data processing & outsourced services group. Security selection in consumer finance also boosted the fund's relative result. The biggest individual relative contributor was an overweight position in MasterCard (-1%). MasterCard was the fund's biggest holding, on average, during the period. Also adding value was our lighter-than-index investment in Upstart Holdings, which returned about -88%. Upstart Holdings was not held at period end. Another notable relative contributor was an underweighting in Fidelity National Information Services (-32%). This period we decreased our stake. Conversely, the largest detractor from performance versus the industry index was an overweight in application software. Stock selection in regional banks and an underweight in asset management & custody banks also modestly hurt relative performance. The biggest individual relative detractor was an underweight position in Fiserv (+18%), which was among the fund's largest holdings. Our second-largest relative detractor this period was avoiding Wex, an index component that gained roughly 14%. Our out-of-index position in Nuvei (-45%) was a key detractor. We reduced our position the past year.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Amount represents less than $.005 per share.
 
E Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.05 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .40%.
 
F Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.07 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been 1.89%.
 
G Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) per share reflects proceeds received from litigation which amounted to $.01 per share. Excluding these litigation proceeds, the total return would have been (.78)%.
 
H The amount shown for a share outstanding does not correspond with the aggregate net gain (loss) on investments for the period due to the timing of sales and repurchases of shares in relation to fluctuating market values of the investments of the Fund.
 
I Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
J Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
K Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
L Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
M Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Fahim Razzaque:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund gained 8.75%, trailing the 10.25% advance of the MSCI US IMI Insurance 25/50 Index, but handily outperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, market selection was the primary detractor, especially an overweighting within multi-line insurance. Weak stock picks in asset management & custody banks also hindered the fund's relative result. Our non-index position in Berkshire Hathaway (-5%) was the fund's largest individual relative detractor. The fund's non-index investment in Ares Management, a position not held at period end, returned approximately -11%. Also hurting performance was our outsized stake in Brown & Brown (-16%). We increased our position the past 12 months. Conversely, by sector, the biggest contributor to performance versus the industry index was stock selection in life & health insurance. Security selection in multi-line insurance and insurance brokers also bolstered the fund's relative result. Not owning Lincoln National, an index component that returned -51%, was the biggest individual relative contributor. Also boosting value was our overweight in Primerica, which gained 50%. We added to our stake the past year. Another notable relative contributor was an underweighting in Prudential Financial (-6%), a position not held at period end. Notable changes in positioning include reduced exposure to the multi-line insurance subindustry.

1. Organization.
Banking Portfolio, Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Financial Services Portfolio, FinTech Portfolio and Insurance Portfolio (the Funds) are non-diversified funds of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust).   The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Funds invest primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries. Each Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.   Share transactions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets may contain exchanges between affiliated funds.
 
In January 2023 the Board of Trustees approved a change in the name of Financial Services Portfolio to Financials Portfolio effective April 28, 2023.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
 
Each Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. Each Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of each Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, each Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages each Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. Each Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
 
Each Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value each Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing services or from brokers who make markets in such securities. Corporate bonds are valued by pricing services who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing services. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds' investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and for certain Funds include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Funds represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Funds determine the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, each Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is each Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. Each Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on each Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, certain Funds claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), deferred Trustee compensation, net operating losses, partnerships, capital loss carryforwards and   losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
 
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows for each Fund:
 
 
Tax cost
Gross unrealized appreciation
Gross unrealized depreciation
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)

Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Funds with investment management related services for which the Funds pay a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate and an annualized group fee rate. The individual fund fee rate is applied to each Fund's average net assets. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, each Fund's annual management fee rate expressed as a percentage of each Fund's average net assets was as follows:

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

8. Bank Borrowings.
Each Fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity requirements. Each Fund has established borrowing arrangements with certain banks. The interest rate on the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. Any open loans, including accrued interest, at period end are presented under the caption "Notes payable" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable. Activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:
 
Average Loan Balance
Weighted Average Interest Rate

Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio
$944,406

$2,176
Insurance Portfolio
$10,389,000
2.08%

Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio
32,083
Financial Services Portfolio
23,514
FinTech Portfolio

Insurance Portfolio
11,132
 
10. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
11. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
 
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and the Shareholders of Banking Portfolio, Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Financial Services Portfolio, FinTech Portfolio and Insurance Portfolio
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Banking Portfolio, Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Financial Services Portfolio, FinTech Portfolio and Insurance Portfolio (five of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of February 28, 2023, the related statements of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2023, 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 February 28, 2023 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' 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 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 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 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 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodian 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.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and funds, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs each fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the funds is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The funds' Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds' Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the funds' Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds' activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds' business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds' exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds' activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds' Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds' Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. Each Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factor specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable. 
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

 $10,000 Over 10 Years
 
Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Energy Portfolio on February 28, 2013.
 
The chart shows how the value of your investment would have changed, and also shows how the S&P 500® Index performed over the same period.
 
 
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Maurice FitzMaurice:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund gained 24.63%, outperforming the 24.10% advance of the MSCI US IMI Energy 25/50 Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The top contributors to performance versus the sector index were stock selection and an underweighting in oil & gas storage & transportation. Security selection in integrated oil & gas and an overweighting in oil & gas equipment & services also helped. The fund's biggest individual relative contributor was an overweighting in TechnipFMC, which gained 124% the past 12 months. We increased the position the past year. Also boosting value was an underweighting in Chevron, which gained roughly 15%. Despite an underweighting, the company was among the fund's largest holdings. Avoiding Williams Companies, an index component that gained about 1%, also helped relative performance. In contrast, the largest detractor from performance versus the sector index were stock picks in oil & gas exploration & production. Weak stock selection in oil & gas equipment & services and independent power producers & energy traders also hurt relative performance. Our non-index investment in Canadian National Resources was the fund's biggest individual relative detractor this period, due to its approximate 6% gain. This was among our largest holdings this period. Also hindering performance was untimely positioning in EQT, which gained roughly 46%. This was a stake we established during the period. Also hurting performance was our outsized stake in PDC Energy, which gained 7%. Notable changes in positioning include a higher allocation to the oil & gas equipment & services and oil & gas refining & marketing subindustries.

1. Organization.
Energy Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.   Share transactions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets may contain exchanges between affiliated funds. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Fund invests primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.  
 
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investments companies (PFIC), partnerships, deferred Trustee compensation, capital loss carryforwards and   losses deferred due to wash sales.
 
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
 
Gross unrealized appreciation
$1,131,819,264
Gross unrealized depreciation
(25,206,828)
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)
$1,106,612,436)
Tax Cost
$1,775,512,905

Capital loss carryforward
$(1,200,162,975)
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities and other investments
$1,104,063,112
 
Due to a merger in a prior period, approximately $390,759,990 of the Fund's realized losses are subject to limitation. Due to this limitation, the Fund will only be permitted to use approximately $2,077,904 of those capital losses per year to offset gains. These realized losses were acquired from Select Natural Gas Portfolio when it merged into the Fund on November 19, 2021.
 
Due to a merger in a prior period, approximately $320,127,296 of the Fund's realized losses and a portion of the Fund's unrealized losses are subject to limitation.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and an annualized group fee rate that averaged .23% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, the total annual management fee rate was .53% of the Fund's average net assets.
 
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company LLC (FIIOC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual rate of .16% of average net assets.
 
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for each month. For the period, the fees were equivalent to the following annual rates:

Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the Fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR), or other affiliated entities of FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating affiliated funds. Any open loans, including accrued interest, at period end are presented as Notes payable to affiliates in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:

Interfund Trades. Funds may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Any interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note. Interfund trades during the period are noted in the table below.

5. Committed Line of Credit.
Certain Funds participate with other funds managed by the investment adviser or an affiliate in a $4.25 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The participating funds have agreed to pay commitment fees on their pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which are reflected in Miscellaneous expenses on the Statement of Operations, and are listed below. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.

6. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

7. Bank Borrowings.
The Fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity requirements. The Fund has established borrowing arrangements with certain banks. The interest rate on the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. Any open loans, including accrued interest, at period end are presented under the caption "Notes payable" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable. Activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:

8. Expense Reductions.
During the period the investment adviser or an affiliate reimbursed and/or waived a portion of operating expenses in the amount of $100,733.
9. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
10. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
11. Prior Fiscal Year Merger Information.
On November 19, 2021, the Fund acquired all of the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of each Target Fund listed in the below table pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization approved by the Board of Trustees ("The Board"). The securities held by each Target Fund were the primary assets acquired by the Fund. The acquisition was accomplished by an exchange of shares of the Fund for shares then outstanding of each Target Fund at their respective net asset value on the acquisition date. The reorganization provides shareholders of each Target Fund access to a larger portfolio with a similar investment objective and lower projected expenses. For financial reporting purposes, the assets and liabilities of each Target Fund and shares issued by the Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from each Target Fund were carried forward and will be utilized for purposes of the Fund's ongoing reporting of realized and unrealized gains and losses to more closely align subsequent reporting of realized gains with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes with no gain or loss recognized to the funds or their shareholders.

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single portfolio since the acquisitions were completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the acquired funds that have been included in the Fund's Statement of Operations since November 19, 2021.
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and Shareholders of Energy Portfolio
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Energy Portfolio (one of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, referred to hereafter as the "Fund") as of February 28, 2023, the related statement of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of February 28, 2023, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023 and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's 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 Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.  
We conducted our audits of these 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 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 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 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and fund, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs the fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee the fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review the fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the fund is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The fund's Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing the fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the fund, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the fund. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The fund's Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the fund's Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the fund's activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the fund's business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the fund are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the fund's exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the fund's activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the fund's Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the fund's Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Distributions   (Unaudited)
 
The dividend and capital gains distributions for the fund(s) are available on Fidelity.com or Institutional.Fidelity.com .
 
The fund designates 100% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year as qualifying for the dividends-received deduction for corporate shareholders.
 
The fund designates 100% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year as amounts which may be taken into account as a dividend for the purposes of the maximum rate under section 1(h)(11) of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
The fund will notify shareholders in January 2024 of amounts for use in preparing 2023 income tax returns.
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. The Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factors specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable.
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Fidelity® Environment and Alternative Energy Fund
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Julia Pei:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -9.46%, trailing the -3.95% result of the FTSE EO & Alternative Energy Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The largest detractor from performance versus the industry index was stock selection in specialty chemicals. Also hindering performance was positioning in automobile manufacturers and environmental & facilities services. The fund's largest individual relative detractor was untimely positioning in Tesla, which returned -29% the past year. The company was among our biggest holdings. Another notable relative detractor was our outsized stake in Waste Management (-11%), a position we established this period. Also hampering performance was untimely positioning in IBM, which gained roughly 10%. We added to our position the past 12 months. The fund's foreign holdings also detracted overall, partly due to a broadly strong U.S. dollar.   In contrast, the biggest contributor to performance versus the industry index were stock picks in semiconductors. An overweighting in industrial gases and stock picks in building products also boosted the fund's relative result. The fund's largest individual relative contributor was an overweighting in Linde, which gained 20% the past year. The company was among the fund's largest holdings. Another key contributor was our out-of-index position in onsemi (+23%). We reduced our stake this period. The fund's non-index investment in Deere gained roughly 18%. We decreased our position in the company the past 12 months. Notable changes in positioning include a higher allocation to the industrial gases and semiconductors subindustries.
Note to shareholders: On January 30, 2023, Asher Anolic came off the fund, leaving Julie Pei as sole manager.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
E Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
F Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
G Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Natural Resources Fund
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Ashley Fernandes:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund gained 19.78%, notably outpacing the 10.19% advance of the S&P North American Natural Resources Sector Index and outperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index by a wide margin. The top contributors to performance versus the industry index were stock picks and an overweighting in oil & gas exploration & production. Stock picks and an overweighting in oil & gas equipment & services and an underweighting in gold also bolstered the fund's relative result. The fund's biggest individual relative contributor was an outsized stake in Exxon Mobil, which gained 45% the past year and was the fund's largest holding. Also boosting value was our overweight in Hess, which gained 35% and was another of our biggest holdings. An outsized stake in Weatherford International (+133%) also added notable value. This period we increased our stake in the company. In contrast, the largest detractors from performance versus the industry index were an overweighting and stock selection in copper. An overweighting and stock picks in diversified metals & mining also hampered the fund's relative performance. The fund's largest individual relative detractor was an overweighting in Freeport-McMoRan, which returned -12% the past 12 months. The company was among our biggest holdings. Our second-largest relative detractor was avoiding Marathon Petroleum, an index component that gained roughly 63%. An out-of-index investment in First Quantum Minerals (-25%) also hurt. Notable changes in positioning include a higher allocation to the oil & gas equipment & services and oil & gas refining & marketing subindustries.

The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
 
Each Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. Each Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of each Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, each Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages each Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. Each Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.  
 
Each Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value each Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts,   ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds ,including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of each Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds' investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and for certain Funds include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Funds represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Funds determine the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, each Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is each Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. Each Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on each Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. Fidelity Environment and Alternative Energy Fund is subject to a tax imposed on capital gains by certain countries in which it invests. An estimated deferred tax liability for net unrealized appreciation on the applicable securities is included in Other payables and accrued expenses on the Statement of Assets & Liabilities.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, certain Funds claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, partnerships, certain foreign taxes, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), deferred Trustee compensation and   capital loss carryforwards and   losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
 
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows for each Fund:

Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
 
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Funds with investment management related services for which the Funds pay a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate and an annualized group fee rate. The individual fund fee rate is applied to each Fund's average net assets. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, each Fund's annual management fee rate expressed as a percentage of each Fund's average net assets was as follows:

Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), each Fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR), or other affiliated entities of FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing each Fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating affiliated funds.

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

8. Bank Borrowings.
Each Fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity requirements. Each Fund has established borrowing arrangements with certain banks. The interest rate on the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. Any open loans, including accrued interest, at period end are presented under the caption "Notes payable" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable. Activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:

10. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
11. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
 
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and Shareholders of Fidelity Environment and Alternative Energy Fund and Fidelity Natural Resources Fund
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Fidelity Environment and Alternative Energy Fund and Fidelity Natural Resources Fund (two of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of February 28, 2023, the related statements of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2023, 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 February 28, 2023 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' 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 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 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 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 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 financial statements.   Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodian, issuer of privately offered securities 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.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and funds, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs each fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the funds is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The funds' Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds' Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the funds' Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds' activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds' business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds' exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees.

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. Each Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factor specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable. 
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Ben Shuleva:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund's share classes (excluding sales charges, if applicable) returned about -2% to -1%, versus the -1.01% result of the MSCI U.S. IMI Consumer Staples 25/50 Index, and well ahead of the broad-based S&P 500® index. The largest detractor from performance relative to the sector index was security selection in the personal products category. Stock picks in advertising also notably hindered the fund's relative result. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was an overweight in Herbalife Nutrition, which returned -46% the past 12 months. We pared our stake. Another notable relative detractor was an out-of-index investment in Advantage Solutions (-72%). The fund's non-index position in Olaplex Holdings, which we established this period, returned roughly -63%. In contrast, stock picks in the packaged foods & meats segment gave the biggest boost to the fund's performance versus the sector index. Security selection in the hypermarkets & super centers group and household products category also bolstered the fund's relative result. The fund's biggest individual relative contributor was an outsized stake in Monster Beverage, which gained 20% the past 12 months. Though we reduced our shares in the company, it was among our largest holdings at period end. Also lifting the fund's performance was our overweight in Lamb Weston Holdings, which gained approximately 51%. Lamb Weston was not held at period end. Another notable relative contributor was an underweight in Costco Wholesale (-4%), a stake we established the past year. Notable changes in positioning include reduced exposure to the tobacco group and an increased weight in distillers & vintners.

1 . Organization.
Consumer Staples Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Fund invests primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries. The Fund offers Fidelity Advisor Consumer Staples Fund Class A (Class A), Fidelity Advisor Consumer Staples Fund Class M (Class M), Fidelity Advisor Consumer Staples Fund Class C (Class C), Consumer Staples Portfolio (Consumer Staples), Fidelity Advisor Consumer Staples Class I (Class I) and Fidelity Advisor Consumer Staples Fund Class Z (Class Z) shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class C shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of eight years from the initial date of purchase, with certain exceptions.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
 
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Class Allocations and Expenses. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, common expenses of a fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated daily on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of a fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred, as applicable. Certain expense reductions may also differ by class, if applicable. For the reporting period, the allocated portion of income and expenses to each class as a percent of its average net assets may vary due to the timing of recording these transactions in relation to fluctuating net assets of the classes. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, partnerships, deferred Trustee compensation and   losses deferred due to wash sales.

Gross unrealized appreciation

Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.

Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and an annualized group fee rate that averaged .23% during the period.

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

12. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
13. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.  
 
 
 
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and Shareholders of Consumer Staples Portfolio
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Consumer Staples Portfolio (one of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, referred to hereafter as the "Fund") as of February 28, 2023, the related statement of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of February 28, 2023, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023 and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's 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 Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these 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 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 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 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and fund, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs the fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee the fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review the fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the fund is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The fund's Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544 if you're an individual investing directly with Fidelity, call 1-800-835-5092 if you're a plan sponsor or participant with Fidelity as your recordkeeper or call 1-877-208-0098 on institutional accounts or if you're an advisor or invest through one.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing the fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the fund, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the fund. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The fund's Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the fund's Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the fund's activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the fund's business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the fund are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the fund's exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the fund's activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the fund's Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the fund's Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. The Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factors specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable.
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Defense and Aerospace Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Clayton Pfannenstiel:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund gained 1.54%, trailing the 3.54% advance of the MSCI US IMI Aerospace & Defense 25/50 Linked Index, but outperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary detractor, especially within the core aerospace & defense category. Out-of-index exposure to electronic equipment & instruments firms hurt to a much lesser extent. The fund's largest individual relative detractor was an outsized stake in Triumph Group, which returned -49% the past year. Also hindering performance was the portfolio's smaller-than-index stake in Axon Enterprise, which gained 43%. An underweighting in Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings (+45%) proved detrimental as well; the stock was no longer held at period end. In contrast, the largest contributor to performance versus the industry index was a non-index allocation to the research & consulting services segment. Not owning Virgin Galactic, an index component that returned about -41%, was the top individual relative contributor. Also adding value was an underweighting in Raytheon Technologies, which returned -2% and was among the fund's biggest holdings on February 28. Avoiding Kaman, an index component that returned approximately -38%, bolstered the portfolio's relative result as well.
Notes to shareholders:
On January 1, 2023, Chad Colman came off of the fund, leaving Clayton Pfannenstiel as sole manager.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the 10 for 1 share split that occurred on August 10, 2018.
 
C Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
D Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
E Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.02 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .44%.
 
F Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.18 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .48%.
 
G The amount shown for a share outstanding does not correspond with the aggregate net gain (loss) on investments for the period due to the timing of sales and repurchases of shares in relation to fluctuating market values of the investments of the Fund.
 
H Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
I Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
J Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
K Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Industrials Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Janet Glazer:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund gained 1.19%, underperforming the 2.97% advance of the MSCI US IMI Industrials 25/50 Linked Index, but outperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the sector index, security selection was the primary detractor, especially within aerospace & defense. Security selection in application software and an underweighting in construction machinery & heavy trucks also hurt. The biggest individual relative detractor was an overweight position in Triumph (-58%), a stock that was not held at the end of this period. Also hurting performance was our large overweighting in Roper Technologies, which returned roughly -5%. Roper Technologies was not held at period end. Avoiding Caterpillar, an index component that gained about 31%, also hurt relative performance. In contrast, the largest contributors to performance versus the sector index were an overweighting and stock selection in construction & engineering. An underweighting and security selection in air freight & logistics and stock picks in electrical components & equipment also bolstered the fund's relative result. The biggest individual relative contributor was an overweight position in WillScot Mobile Mini (+45%). WillScot Mobile Mini was among the fund's biggest holdings. Also lifting performance was our outsized investment in Crane Holdings, which gained 29%. This was a position we established the past year, following the firm's spin-off from parent firm Crane Company. Avoiding 3M, an index component that returned -24%, also aided relative performance. Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the industrial machinery subindustry and a lower allocation to aerospace & defense.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.03 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .03%.
 
E Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.06 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .64%.
 
F The amount shown reflects reclassifications related to book to tax differences that were made in the year shown.
 
G Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
H Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
I Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
J Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
K Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
L Portfolio turnover rate excludes securities received or delivered in-kind.
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Matthew Moulis:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -0.46%, outperforming the -8.76% result of the MSCI US IMI Transportation 25/50 Linked Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, out-of-index exposure to the oil & gas storage & transportation group was the primary contributor, by far. Security selection in the marine subindustry also boosted the fund's relative result. Our non-index investment in Scorpio Tankers was the fund's largest individual relative contributor, driven by an increase of 194%. This was among our biggest holdings. Our second-largest contributor this period was Eagle Bulk Shipping, which gained about 49% and contributed to relative performance. We decreased our position in the past 12 months. Another key contributor was our out-of-index position in International Seaways (+193%). We reduced our stake this period. In contrast, the primary detractor from performance versus the industry index was stock selection in air freight & logistics. An underweighting in trucking and stock picks in aluminum also hindered the fund's relative result. The fund's largest individual relative detractor was an overweighting in Air Transport Services Group, which returned about -34% the past year. The company was among our biggest holdings. Our second-largest relative detractor this period was avoiding Old Dominion Freight Lines, an index component that gained roughly 9%. Also holding back performance was an underweighting in United Airlines Holdings, which gained approximately 17%. Notable changes in positioning include reduced exposure to the marine subindustry and a higher allocation to airlines.

1. Organization.
Defense and Aerospace Portfolio, Industrials Portfolio and Transportation Portfolio (the Funds) are non-diversified funds of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust).   The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Funds invest primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries. Each Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.   Share transactions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets may contain exchanges between affiliated funds.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
 
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
Each Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. Each Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of each Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, each Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages each Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. Each Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
 
Each Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value each Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023, is included at the end of each Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds' investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and for certain Funds include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Funds represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Funds determine the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Large, non-recurring dividends recognized by the Funds are presented separately on the Statement of Operations as "Special Dividends" and the impact of these dividends is presented in the Financial Highlights. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, each Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is each Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. Each Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on each Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Funds claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), deferred Trustee compensation, and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
 
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows for each Fund:

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Funds with investment management related services for which the Funds pay a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate and an annualized group fee rate. The individual fund fee rate is applied to each Fund's average net assets. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, each Fund's annual management fee rate expressed as a percentage of each Fund's average net assets was as follows:

Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company LLC (FIIOC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, is the Funds' transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, transfer agent fees were equivalent to the following annual rates expressed as a percentage of average net assets:

Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), each Fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR), or other affiliated entities of FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing each Fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating affiliated funds. At period end, there were no interfund loans outstanding. Activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:

6. Committed Line of Credit.
Certain Funds participate with other funds managed by the investment adviser or an affiliate in a $4.25 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes.

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

9. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
 
10. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
 
 
11 . Prior Fiscal Year Merger Information.
On November 12, 2021, Transportation Portfolio acquired all of the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of Air Transportation Portfolio ("Target Fund") pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization approved by the Board of Trustees ("The Board"). The securities held by the Target Fund were the primary assets acquired by the Fund. The acquisition was accomplished by an exchange of shares of the Fund for shares then outstanding of the Target Fund at its respective net asset value on the acquisition date. The reorganization provides shareholders of the Target Fund access to a larger portfolio with a similar investment objective and lower projected expenses. For financial reporting purposes, the assets and liabilities of the Target Fund and shares issued by the Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Target Fund were carried forward and will be utilized for purposes of the Fund's ongoing reporting of realized and unrealized gains and losses to more closely align subsequent reporting of realized gains with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes with no gain or loss recognized to the funds or their shareholders.

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the acquired fund that have been included in the Transportation Portfolio's Statement of Operations since November 12, 2021.
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and Shareholders of Defense and Aerospace Portfolio, Industrials Portfolio and Transportation Portfolio
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Defense and Aerospace Portfolio, Industrials Portfolio and Transportation Portfolio (three of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of February 28, 2023, the related statements of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2023, 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 February 28, 2023 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' 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 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 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 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 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodians 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.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and funds, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs each fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the funds is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The funds' Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds' Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the funds' Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds' activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds' business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds' exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds' activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds' Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds' Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. Each Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factor specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable. 
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred.

Telecommunications Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Nicole Abernethy:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund's share classes (excluding sales charges, if applicable) returned roughly -9% to -8%, modestly underperforming the -7.85% return of the MSCI IMI Telecommunication Services 25/50 (IG) Index. Most share classes underperformed the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The primary contributors to performance versus the industry index were stock picks and an underweighting in alternative carriers. Security selection in wireless telecommunication services and IT consulting & other services also lifted the fund's relative result. The biggest individual relative contributor was an underweight position in Lumen Technologies (-65%). Our second-largest relative contributor this period was avoiding Consolidated Communications Holdings, an index component that returned about -57%. Another notable relative contributor was an outsized stake in T-Mobile (+15%). This period we reduced our stake. Conversely, the fund's biggest detractor from performance versus the industry index was our security selection in the cable & satellite industry. Security selection in integrated telecommunication services and application software also hurt the fund's relative performance. Our largest individual detractor versus the industry index was an out-of-index stake in Liberty Broadband (-41%). We trimmed the position. Another notable relative detractor was our lighter-than-index stake in Globalstar (+8%). This period we increased our position. Another notable relative detractor was an underweight in AT&T (+11%). Despite the underweight, AT&T was among the fund's biggest holdings. Notable changes in positioning include a lower allocation to the cable & satellite and wireless telecommunication services subindustries.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.35 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been 1.74%.
 
E Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.25 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been 1.52%.
 
F Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
G Total returns do not include the effect of the sales charges.
 
H Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
I Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
J Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
K Portfolio turnover rate excludes securities received or delivered in-kind.

1. Organization.
Telecommunications Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Fund invests primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries. The Fund offers Fidelity Advisor Telecommunications Fund Class A (Class A), Fidelity Advisor Telecommunications Fund Class M (Class M), Fidelity Advisor Telecommunications Fund Class C (Class C), Telecommunications Portfolio (Telecommunications), Fidelity Advisor Telecommunications Fund Class I (Class I) and Fidelity Advisor Telecommunications Fund Class Z (Class Z) shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class C shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of eight years from the initial date of purchase, with certain exceptions.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
 
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.  
 
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
 
Class Allocations and Expenses. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, common expenses of a fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated daily on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of a fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred, as applicable. Certain expense reductions may also differ by class, if applicable. For the reporting period, the allocated portion of income and expenses to each class as a percent of its average net assets may vary due to the timing of recording these transactions in relation to fluctuating net assets of the classes. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. The Fund is subject to a tax imposed on capital gains by certain countries in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and an annualized group fee rate that averaged .23% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, the total annual management fee rate was .53% of the Fund's average net assets.
 
Distribution and Service Plan Fees. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares. Certain classes pay Fidelity Distributors Company LLC (FDC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, separate Distribution and Service Fees, each of which is based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. In addition, FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the Fund and providing shareholder support services.

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

11. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
12. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
 
 
 
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Wireless Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Matthew Drukker:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -14.79%, underperforming the -11.88% result of the Fidelity Wireless Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary detractor, especially within the interactive media & services category. Picks among semiconductors firms, along with the internet & direct marketing retail group, also hurt. The portfolio's largest individual detractor versus the industry index was an out-of-index stake in Snap (-75%). Non-index exposure to Amazon.com (-39%) proved detrimental as well. Avoiding STMicroelectronics, an index component that gained about 15%, further weighed on the fund's relative result. In contrast, the biggest contributors to performance versus the industry index were stock picks and an overweight in wireless telecommunication services companies. Investment choices in integrated telecommunication services and trucking stocks further lifted the portfolio's relative return. The biggest individual relative contributor was an overweight position in T-Mobile U.S. (+15%), one of the fund's biggest holdings at period end. Also bolstering performance was a smaller-than-index stake in Verizon Communications, which returned roughly -23%. The company was among the fund's largest positions this period. Adding further value was a non-index stake in Uber Technologies (-8%), another sizable portfolio holding as of February 28. Notable changes in positioning include a higher allocation to the wireless telecommunication services industry and alternative carriers.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.03 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been 1.74%.
 
E Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) per share reflects proceeds received from litigation which amounted to $.01 per share. Excluding these litigation proceeds, the total return would have been .12%.
 
F Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
G Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
H Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
I Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
J Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
 
For the period ended February 28, 2023
 
1. Organization.
Wireless Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.   Share transactions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets may contain exchanges between affiliated funds. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Fund invests primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
 
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
 
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.  
 
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and include proceeds received from litigation.   Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
 
 
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. The Fund is subject to a tax imposed on capital gains by certain countries in which it invests. An estimated deferred tax liability for net unrealized appreciation on the applicable securities is included in Other payables and accrued expenses on the Statement of Assets & Liabilities.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes and   losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
 
Gross unrealized appreciation
$99,703,763
Gross unrealized depreciation
(44,855,157)
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)
$54,848,606

Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and an annualized group fee rate that averaged .23% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, the total annual management fee rate was .53% of the Fund's average net assets.
 
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company LLC (FIIOC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual rate of .20% of average net assets.
 
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for each month. For the period, the fees were equivalent to the following annual rates:

Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the Fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR), or other affiliated entities of FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating affiliated funds.

The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Any interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note. Interfund trades during the period are noted in the table below.

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:
 
 
Total Security Lending Fees Paid to NFS
Security Lending Income From Securities Loaned to NFS
Value of Securities Loaned to NFS at Period End

8. Expense Reductions.
During the period the investment adviser or an affiliate reimbursed and/or waived a portion of operating expenses in the amount of $12,049.
9. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
 
10. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and Shareholders of Telecommunications Portfolio and Wireless Portfolio
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Telecommunications Portfolio and Wireless Portfolio (two of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of February 28, 2023, the related statements of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2023, 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 February 28, 2023 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.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' 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 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 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 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 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodian 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.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and funds, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs each fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the funds is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The funds' Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544 if you're an individual investing directly with Fidelity, call 1-800-835-5092 if you're a plan sponsor or participant with Fidelity as your recordkeeper or call 1-877-208-0098 on institutional accounts or if you're an advisor or invest through one.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds' Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the funds' Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds' activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds' business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds' exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds' activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds' Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds' Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The funds will notify shareholders in January 2024 of amounts for use in preparing 2023 income tax returns.
 
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. Each Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factor specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable. 
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Douglas Simmons:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund gained 1.46%, outperforming the -0.98% return of the MSCI US IMI Utilities 25/50 Index, and handily outpacing the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The primary contributor to performance versus the sector index was our stock selection in electric utilities. An underweighting and stock picks in multi-utilities and an overweighting in independent power producers & energy traders also lifted the fund's relative result. The biggest individual relative contributor was an overweight position in Constellation Energy (+63%), which was among the fund's largest holdings. Also helping performance was our overweight in PG&E, which gained approximately 37%, and was another top-five holding. Another notable relative contributor was our lighter-than-index stake in Dominion Energy (-28%). Conversely, the primary detractor from performance versus the sector index was our stock selection in renewable electricity. An underweighting and security selection in gas utilities and stock picks in integrated telecommunication services also hurt relative performance. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was our underweight stake in Consolidated Edison, which gained about 8% the past year. Consolidated Edison was not held at period end. An underweight and untimely positioning in Eversource Energy, which returned -5%, also held back performance. This was a stake we established the past 12 months. Further hindering performance was our lighter-than-index investment in American Electric Power. American Electric Power was not held at period end. Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the electric utilities subindustry.

1. Organization.
Utilities Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.   Share transactions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets may contain exchanges between affiliated funds. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
 
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, partnerships and losses deferred due to wash sales.
 
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
 
Gross unrealized appreciation
$205,091,487
Gross unrealized depreciation
(56,923,405)

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and an annualized group fee rate that averaged .23% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, the total annual management fee rate was .53% of the Fund's average net assets.
 
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company LLC (FIIOC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual rate of .17% of average net assets.
 
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for each month. For the period, the fees were equivalent to the following annual rates:

Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the Fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR), or other affiliated entities of FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating affiliated funds. At period end, there were no interfund loans outstanding. Activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:

Borrower
$16,158,500

Interfund Trades. Funds may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Any interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note.   Interfund trades during the period are noted in the table below.

The participating funds have agreed to pay commitment fees on their pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which are reflected in Miscellaneous expenses on the Statement of Operations, and are listed below. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
 
 
Amount
Utilities Portfolio
$2,361
 
7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:
 
 
Total Security Lending Fees Paid to NFS
Security Lending Income From Securities Loaned to NFS
Value of Securities Loaned to NFS at Period End

8. Expense Reductions.
In addition, during the period the investment adviser or an affiliate reimbursed and/or waived a portion of operating expenses in the amount of $49,100.
9. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
10. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and Shareholders of Utilities Portfolio
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Utilities Portfolio (one of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, referred to hereafter as the "Fund") as of February 28, 2023, the related statement of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of February 28, 2023, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023 and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's 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 Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these 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 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 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 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and fund, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs the fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee the fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review the fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the fund is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The fund's Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing the fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the fund, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the fund. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The fund's Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the fund's Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the fund's activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the fund's business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the fund are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the fund's exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the fund's activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the fund's Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the fund's Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Distributions   (Unaudited)
 
The dividend and capital gains distributions for the fund(s) are available on Fidelity.com or Institutional.Fidelity.com .
 
The fund hereby designates as a capital gain dividend with respect to the taxable year ended February 28, 2023, $35,895,447, or, if subsequently determined to be different, the net capital gain of such year.
 
A total of 0.01% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year was derived from interest on U.S. Government securities which is generally exempt from state income tax.
 
The fund designates 100% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year as qualifying for the dividends-received deduction for corporate shareholders.
 
The fund designates 100% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year as amounts which may be taken into account as a dividend for the purposes of the maximum rate under section 1(h)(11) of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
The fund will notify shareholders in January 2024 of amounts for use in preparing 2023 income tax returns.
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. The Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factors specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable.
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

IT Services Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Becky Baker:
For the fiscal year, the fund returned -11.88%, trailing the -9.86% result of the MSCI US IMI IT Services 25/50 Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary detractor, especially within IT consulting & other services. Stock selection in internet services & infrastructure and non-index exposure to advertising also hampered the fund's relative result. Not owning IBM, an index component that gained 11%, was the largest individual relative detractor. The fund's non-index stake in S4 Capital, a position not held at period end, returned roughly -47% and hurt. Also hampering performance was an underweighting in Automatic Data Processing, which gained about 10%. Conversely, the largest contributor to performance versus the industry index was out-of-index exposure to specialized consumer services. Security selection in data processing & outsourced services and non-index investment in consumer finance also helped. Our non-index investment in H&R Block was the fund's largest individual relative contributor, driven by a rise of 53%. This was among the biggest holdings at period end. Also bolstering performance was our overweighting in ExlService Holdings, which gained 36%. ExlService was among the fund's largest holdings. Another key contributor was our out-of-index position in NerdWallet (+82%). Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the application software subindustry and a lower allocation to internet services & infrastructure.
Note to shareholders:
On June 1, 2023, the fund's name will change to Fidelity ® Select Enterprise Technology Services Portfolio, in alignment with an update to the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS). The fund's supplemental benchmark also will change, from the MSCI U.S. IMI IT Services 25/50 Index to the MSCI U.S. IMI Enterprise Technology Services 25/50 Index. These changes will better reflect the fund's investment mandate by capturing IT services providers across multiple industries.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
E Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
F Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
G Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
H Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Semiconductors Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Adam Benjamin:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -2.91%, outperforming the -9.01% result of the MSCI U.S. IMI Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment 25/50 Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary contributor, led by choices in the fund's core semiconductors segment. The fund's top individual relative contributor was a large underweighting in Intel, which returned approximately -45% the past 12 months. Intel was not held at period end. Also helping performance was our overweighting in onsemi (formerly On Semiconductor), which gained about 23%. Onsemi was among the fund's largest holdings. Another notable relative contributor was our lighter-than-index stake in Qualcomm (-27%). Conversely, the primary detractors from performance versus the industry index were security selection and an underweighting in semiconductor equipment. A small non-index exposure to technology hardware, storage & peripherals also hindered the fund's relative result. The fund's biggest individual relative detractor was an outsized stake in Marvell Technology, which returned roughly -34% the past year. The company was among our largest holdings. Our second-largest relative detractor this period was avoiding First Solar, an index component that gained about 125%. Also hampering performance was an underweighting in Broadcom, which gained approximately 4%. The company was among our biggest holdings.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the 10 for 1 share split that occurred on May 11, 2018.
 
C Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
D Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
E Total distributions per share do not sum due to rounding.
 
F Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
G Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
H Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
I Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Software and IT Services Portfolio
Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Ali Khan:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -13.67%, modestly outpacing the -13.83% result of the MSCI US IMI Software & Services 25/50 Index, but underperforming the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary contributor, led by the application software sector. Our non-index stake in Twitter was the fund's biggest individual relative contributor, driven by a gain of about 52%. Twitter was not held at period end. Also lifting performance was our overweighting in Anaplan, which gained about 35%. Anaplan was not held at period end. Another notable relative contributor was our lighter-than-index position in Datadog (-53%), a stake we established the past 12 months. In contrast, the primary detractor from performance versus the industry index was an underweighting in data processing & outsourced services. Stock selection in IT consulting & other services and an overweighting in internet services & infrastructure also hurt relative performance. Our non-index investment in Alphabet was the fund's biggest individual relative detractor, due to its roughly -33% result. This was among the fund's largest holdings. Also holding back performance was an underweighting in Automatic Data Processing, which gained roughly 10%. Automatic Data Processing was not held at period end. Avoiding Cadence Design Systems, an index component that gained approximately 27%, also hurt relative performance.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the 10 for 1 share split that occurred on May 11, 2018.
 
C Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
D Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
E Amount represents less than $.005 per share.
 
F Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.15 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .22%.
 
G Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
H Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
I Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
J Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Elliot Mattingly:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -13.61%, trailing the -12.56% result of the FactSet Hardware Technology Linked Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. Versus the industry index, security selection was the primary detractor, especially among technology hardware, storage & peripherals firms. An underweighting and picks in the consumer electronics group, along with investment choices in industrial machinery, hampered the fund's relative result as well. The portfolio's biggest individual relative detractor was an overweighting in FUJIFILM Holdings, which returned -25% the past 12 months and was among our largest holdings on February 28. Further pressuring relative performance was a non-index stake in Kornit Digital, a position not held at period end that returned about -75%. Also hurting the fund's return compared with the index was an outsized investment in Sonos (-47%). The stock was no longer held as of period end. In contrast, the biggest contributor to performance versus the industry index was security selection in the communications equipment category, followed by stock picks and an overweighting among systems software and technology distributors. The fund's top individual relative contributor was an overweight in Extreme Networks, which gained 66% and was sold the past year. Further aiding performance was an outsized stake in Motorola Solutions, which rose 21% and was among our biggest holdings. Another notable relative contributor was a larger-than-index position in Insight Enterprises (+41%), an investment we established this period. Notable changes in positioning include reduced exposure to systems software companies.

A For the year ended February 29.
 
B Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
 
C Net investment income (loss) is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Net investment income (loss) of any mutual funds or ETFs is not included in the Fund's net investment income (loss) ratio.
 
D Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.44 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .55%.
 
E Net investment income per share reflects one or more large, non-recurring dividend(s) which amounted to $.78 per share. Excluding such non-recurring dividend(s), the ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been .94%.
 
F The amount shown reflects reclassifications related to book to tax differences that were made in the year shown.
 
G Total returns would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reduced during the applicable periods shown.
 
H Fees and expenses of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are not included in the Fund's expense ratio. The Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses. For additional expense information related to investments in Fidelity Central Funds, please refer to the "Investments in Fidelity Central Funds" note found in the Notes to Financial Statements section of the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual report.
 
I Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed, waived, or reduced through arrangements with the investment adviser, brokerage services, or other offset arrangements, if applicable, and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements, waivers or reductions occur.
 
J Proxy expenses are not annualized.
 
K Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
 
L The portfolio turnover rate does not include the assets acquired in the merger.
 
Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund's total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Market Recap:
U.S. equities returned -7.69% for the 12 months ending February 28, 2023, according to the S&P 500 ® index. The new year began with an encouraging upturn in January (+6.28%), but stocks lost momentum in February (-2.44%) amid higher-than-expected inflation and strong jobs data. Investors took these as signs that the economy continued to run hot, even after a year of historic policy adjustment by the Federal Reserve aimed at cooling economic growth. Record inflation in 2022 prompted the Fed to aggressively tighten monetary policy, and market interest rates eclipsed their highest level in a decade, stoking recession fears and sending stocks into bear market territory. Since March 2022, the central bank has hiked its benchmark rate eight times, by 4.5 percentage points - the fastest-ever pace of monetary tightening - while also shrinking its massive asset portfolio. The latest bump came on February 2, along with a signal that the Fed plans to lift rates in March while it considers whether and when to pause increases. Against this dynamic backdrop, stocks struggled to gain traction until a strong rally ignited heading into the summer. But in September, the index returned -9.21%, one of its worst monthly results ever, before advancing 7.56% in Q4, as risky assets regained favor. For the full 12 months, value stocks handily outpaced growth. The headwind for the latter was most pronounced in the growth-oriented communication services (-25%) and consumer discretionary (-18%) sectors. In sharp contrast, energy gained 24%.
Comments from Portfolio Manager Adam Benjamin:
For the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023, the fund returned -15.43%, underperforming the -11.98% return of the MSCI U.S. IMI Information Technology 25/50 Index, as well as the broad-based S&P 500 ® index. The primary detractors from performance versus the sector index were an overweighting and stock selection in internet services & infrastructure. Non-index exposure to interactive media & services and security selection in application software also hindered the fund's relative result. The biggest individual relative detractor was an overweight position in Marvell Technology (-33%). Marvell Technology was among our largest holdings. Another notable relative detractor was an overweighting in Twilio (-61%), and we reduced our stake. The fund's non-index position in Snap returned about -75%, and we increased our holdings. Conversely, the largest contributors to performance versus the sector index were stock picks and an overweighting in semiconductors. Security selection and an overweighting in electronic manufacturing services and stock picks in data processing & outsourced services also boosted the fund's relative performance. The biggest individual relative contributor was an overweight position in onsemi (+24%). Onsemi was among the fund's biggest holdings. Also boosting value was our outsized stake in Nvidia, which returned -5%. Nvidia was among our largest holdings. Avoiding Intel, an index component that returned about -45%, also aided relative performance. Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the semiconductors subindustry and a lower allocation to communications equipment.

The information used in the above reconciliation represents fiscal year to date activity for any Investments in Securities identified as using Level 3 inputs at either the beginning or the end of the current fiscal period. Cost of purchases and proceeds of sales may include securities received and/or delivered through in-kind transactions. Transfers into Level 3 were attributable to a lack of observable market data resulting from decreases in market activity, decreases in liquidity, security restructurings or corporate actions. Transfers out of Level 3 were attributable to observable market data becoming available for those securities. Transfers in or out of Level 3 represent the beginning value of any Security or Instrument where a change in the pricing level occurred from the beginning to the end of the period. The cost of purchases and the proceeds of sales may include securities received or delivered through corporate actions or exchanges. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) disclosed in the reconciliation are included in Net Gain (Loss) on the Fund's Statement of Operations.

1 . Organization.
IT Services Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, Software and IT Services Portfolio, Tech Hardware Portfolio and Technology Portfolio (the Funds) are non-diversified funds of Fidelity Select Portfolios (the Trust).   The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Funds invest primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries. Each Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.   Share transactions on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets may contain exchanges between affiliated funds. Certain Funds' investments in emerging markets can be subject to social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile.
 
In January 2023 the Board of Trustees approved a change in the name of IT Services Portfolio to Enterprise Technology Services Portfolio effective June 1, 2023.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
 
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of those funds, and are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
Each Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies . The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. Each Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of each Fund:
 
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, each Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages each Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. Each Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
 
Each Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
 
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
 
Valuation techniques used to value each Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
 
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, ETFs and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy. Securities, including private placements or other restricted securities, for which observable inputs are not available are valued using alternate valuation approaches, including the market approach, the income approach and cost approach, and are categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy. The market approach considers factors including the price of recent investments in the same or a similar security or financial metrics of comparable securities. The income approach considers factors including expected future cash flows, security specific risks and corresponding discount rates. The cost approach considers factors including the value of the security's underlying assets and liabilities.
 
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing services or from brokers who make markets in such securities. Preferred securities are valued by pricing services who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing services. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances.
 
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
 
The following provides information on Level 3 securities held by the Fund that were valued at period end based on unobservable inputs. These amounts exclude valuations provided by a broker.

A   Represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that could have resulted from an increase in the corresponding input as of period end. A decrease to the unobservable input would have had the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs may have resulted in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at period end.
 
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of February 28, 2023, as well as a roll forward of Level 3 investments, is included at the end of each Fund's Schedule of Investments.
 
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
 
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
 
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
 
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds' investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost   and for certain Funds include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Funds represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Funds determine the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. A non-recurring dividend with a payable date of February 28, 2023 and an ex-date of March 1, 2023 is presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as "Deferred dividend income". Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
 
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
 
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of February 28, 2023, each Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is each Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. Each Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.   Foreign taxes are provided for based on each Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
 
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, certain Funds claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
 
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
 
Book-tax differences are primarily due to   foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), deferred Trustee compensation, net operating losses, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
 
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows for each Fund:
 
 
Tax cost
Gross unrealized appreciation
Gross unrealized depreciation
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)

Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments, if applicable.
 
Commitments. A commitment is an agreement to acquire an investment at a future date (subject to conditions) in connection with a potential public or non-public offering.

New Accounting Pronouncement. In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this ASU clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. They also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. They also require additional disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. ASU 2022-03 will be effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, and allows for early adoption. ASU 2022-03 will only be applicable to an equity security in which the contractual arrangement that restricts its sale is executed or modified on or after the adoption date. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2022-03 to the financial statements.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Funds with investment management related services for which the Funds pay a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate and an annualized group fee rate. The individual fund fee rate is applied to each Fund's average net assets. The group fee rate is based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the reporting period, each Fund's annual management fee rate expressed as a percentage of each Fund's average net assets was as follows:

7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:

8. Bank Borrowings.
Each Fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity requirements. Each Fund has established borrowing arrangements with certain banks. The interest rate on the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. Any open loans, including accrued interest, at period end are presented under the caption "Notes payable" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable. Activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:

10. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
11. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
12 . Prior Fiscal Year Merger Information.
On November 12, 2021, Tech Hardware Portfolio acquired all of the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of Communications Equipment Portfolio ("Target Fund") pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization approved by the Board of Trustees ("The Board").   The securities held by the Target Fund were the primary assets acquired by the Fund. The acquisition was accomplished by an exchange of shares of the Fund for shares then outstanding of the Target Fund at its respective net asset value on the acquisition date. The reorganization provides shareholders of the Target Fund access to a larger portfolio with a similar investment objective and lower projected expenses. For financial reporting purposes, the assets and liabilities of the Target Fund and shares issued by the Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Target Fund were carried forward and will be utilized for purposes of the Fund's ongoing reporting of realized and unrealized gains and losses to more closely align subsequent reporting of realized gains with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.   The reorganization qualified as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes with no gain or loss recognized to the funds or their shareholders.

Pro forma results of operations of the combined entity for the entire period ended February 28, 2022, as though the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of the year (rather than on the actual acquisition date), are as follows:

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the acquired fund that have been included in the Tech Hardware Portfolio's Statement of Operations since November 12, 2021.
 
 
 
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Select Portfolios and Shareholders of IT Services Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, Software and IT Services Portfolio, Tech Hardware Portfolio, and Technology Portfolio
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of IT Services Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, Software and IT Services Portfolio, Tech Hardware Portfolio, and Technology Portfolio (five of the funds constituting Fidelity Select Portfolios, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of February 28, 2023, the related statements of operations for the year ended February 28, 2023, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2023, 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 February 28, 2023 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended February 28, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' 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 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 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 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 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2023 by correspondence with the custodian, issuers of privately offered securities 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.

TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the trust and funds, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs each fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund's performance. Each of the Trustees oversees 318 funds.
The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the funds is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.
The funds' Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.
Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees.   The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.
In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.
Board Structure and Oversight Function. Robert A. Lawrence is an interested person and currently serves as Chair. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chair is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chair has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chair, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chair and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. David M. Thomas serves as Lead Independent Trustee and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.
Fidelity ® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds' Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's alternative investment, investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity ® funds overseen by the funds' Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity ® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity ® funds overseen by each Board.
The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds' activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds' business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds' exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds' activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds' Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds' Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity ® funds. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, as applicable and (2) ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
 
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (September 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023).
 
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class/Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If any fund is a shareholder of any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the Underlying Funds), such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses incurred presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the 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 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. If any fund is a shareholder of any Underlying Funds, such fund indirectly bears its proportional share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in addition to the direct expenses as presented in the table. These fees and expenses are not included in the annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Liquidity Rule) to promote effective liquidity risk management throughout the open-end investment company industry, thereby reducing the risk that funds will be unable to meet their redemption obligations and mitigating dilution of the interests of fund shareholders.
The Funds have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the Program) reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund's liquidity risk and to comply with the requirements of the Liquidity Rule. Each Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board) has designated each Fund's investment adviser as administrator of the Program. The Fidelity advisers have established a Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the LRM Committee) to manage the Program for each of the Fidelity Funds. The LRM Committee monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of implementation of the Program and on a periodic basis assesses each Fund's liquidity risk based on a variety of factors including (1) the Fund's investment strategy, (2) portfolio liquidity and cash flow projections during normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions, (3) shareholder redemptions, (4) borrowings and other funding sources and (5) certain factor specific to ETFs including the effect of the Fund's prices and spreads, market participants, and basket compositions on the overall liquidity of the Fund's portfolio, as applicable. 
In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund's portfolio investments is classified into one of four defined liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.
  • Highly liquid investments - cash or convertible to cash within three business days or less
  • Moderately liquid investments - convertible to cash in three to seven calendar days
  • Less liquid investments - can be sold or disposed of, but not settled, within seven calendar days
  • Illiquid investments - cannot be sold or disposed of within seven calendar days
Liquidity classification determinations take into account a variety of factors including various market, trading and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and generally utilize analysis from a third-party liquidity metrics service.
The Liquidity Rule places a 15% limit on a fund's illiquid investments and requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to determine and maintain a minimum percentage of the fund's net assets to be invested in highly liquid investments (highly liquid investment minimum or HLIM).  The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments and for determining, periodically reviewing and complying with the HLIM requirement as applicable.
At a recent meeting of the Fund's Board of Trustees, the LRM Committee provided a written report to the Board pertaining to the operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of the Program for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.  The report concluded that the Program is operating effectively and is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk.

Prior to the commencement of any audit or non-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.


The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures to, among other purposes, provide a framework for the Committees consideration of non-audit services by the audit firms that audit the Fidelity funds. The policies and procedures require that any non-audit service provided by a fund audit firm to a Fidelity fund and any non-audit service provided by a fund auditor to a Fund Service Provider that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund (Covered Service) are subject to approval by the Audit Committee before such service is provided.


All Covered Services must be approved in advance of provision of the service either: (i) by formal resolution of the Audit Committee, or (ii) by oral or written approval of the service by the Chair of the Audit Committee (or if the Chair is unavailable, such other member of the Audit Committee as may be designated by the Chair to act in the Chairs absence). The approval contemplated by (ii) above is permitted where the Treasurer determines that action on such an engagement is necessary before the next meeting of the Audit Committee.


Non-audit services provided by a fund audit firm to a Fund Service Provider that do not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund are reported to the Audit Committee periodically.


Non-Audit Services Approved Pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) and (ii) of Regulation S-X (De Minimis Exception)


There were no non-audit services approved or required to be approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the De Minimis Exception during the Funds(s) last two fiscal years relating to services provided to (i) the Fund(s) or (ii) any Fund Service Provider that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund(s).
