Performance: The Bottom Line

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.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  U.S. taxable investment-grade bonds advanced solidly in 2017, as the asset class spent the majority of the year in recovery mode from its steep post-election sell-off in late 2016. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index gained 3.54% for the year. Longer-term bond yields declined through early September – despite two policy-rate hikes – as it became clear that changes to tax, health care and fiscal policies proposed by the Trump administration would take time to develop and implement. Yields then ticked higher from October through year-end, amid efforts by the U.S. Federal Reserve to gradually reduce its balance sheet, and economic strength that led to a policy-rate hike in December. Bond yields rose further following tax reform passed by Congress late in 2017 that boosted expectations for near-term economic growth and reinforced the rate-hike cycle. Within the Bloomberg Barclays index, investment-grade corporate bonds led all major market segments, up 6.42%. U.S. Treasuries returned 2.31%, outperforming most sovereign bonds. Securitized sectors, with the exception of asset-backed securities, slightly topped Treasuries. Outside the index, riskier, non-core fixed-income segments led the broader market, while Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) gained 3.01%, according to Bloomberg Barclays.

Comments from Co-Portfolio Managers Ford O'Neil and Celso Munoz:  For the year, the fund returned 4.46%, solidly outpacing the benchmark Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Certain allocation decisions meaningfully boosted the fund’s relative results, particularly its emphasis on credit-sensitive spread sectors – non-U.S. Treasury securities with higher yields and enhanced credit risk. Investments in non-U.S. government agency issues from Mexico and Brazil tied to the energy sector proved to be advantageous. These securities enjoyed substantial gains as oil prices rallied and investors generally sought higher-yielding alternatives to U.S. bonds. Certain taxable municipal bond holdings, led by securities backed by the state of Illinois and the city of Chicago, also contributed. Our approach to the investment-grade corporate segment panned out fairly well, as our larger-than-index exposure to this segment was a source of outperformance, although the more significant contribution came from our selections among such securities. Significantly overweighting financials, particularly U.S. and European banks and real estate investment trusts, added value. That said, underweighting bright spots within the industrial sector curbed results, as did owning poor-performing bonds of Teva Pharmaceuticals.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended December 31, 2017

1. Organization.

Fidelity VIP Investment Grade Central Fund (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Garrison Street Trust (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Shares of the Fund are only offered to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), or its affiliates (the Investing 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.

The Fund invests 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 Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.

The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Annualized expenses of the Money Market Central Funds as of their most recent shareholder report date are less than .005%.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds, which are not covered by the Fund's Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the SEC 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 – Investments 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 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 delegated the day to day responsibility for the valuation of the Fund's investments to the Fair Value Committee (the Committee) established by the Fund's investment adviser. In accordance with valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing vendors 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 procedures adopted by the Board. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee oversees the Fund's valuation policies and procedures and reports to the Board on the Committee's activities and fair value determinations. The Board monitors the appropriateness of the procedures used in valuing the Fund's investments and ratifies the fair value determinations of the Committee.

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 – 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:

Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing vendors or from brokers who make markets in such securities. Corporate bonds, bank notes, municipal securities and U.S. government and government agency obligations are valued by pricing vendors who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. Asset backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, commercial mortgage securities and U.S. government agency mortgage securities are valued by pricing vendors who utilize matrix pricing which considers prepayment speed assumptions, attributes of the collateral, yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. Brokers which make markets in asset backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and commercial mortgage securities may also consider such factors as the structure of the issue, cash flow assumptions, the value of underlying assets as well as any guarantees. Swaps are marked-to-market daily based on valuations from third party pricing vendors, registered derivatives clearing organizations (clearinghouses) or broker-supplied valuations. These pricing sources may utilize inputs such as interest rate curves, credit spread curves, default possibilities and recovery rates. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities and swaps may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing vendors. Debt securities and swaps 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 December 31, 2017 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

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 includes proceeds received from litigation. 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. The principal amount on inflation-indexed securities is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation and interest is accrued based on the principal amount. The adjustments to principal due to inflation are reflected as increases or decreases to Interest in the accompanying Statement of Operations. Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is reasonably assured.

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. 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 December 31, 2017, 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.

Dividends are declared and recorded daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, 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.

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 futures contracts, swaps, market discount, 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:

Gross unrealized appreciation $94,422,172 
Gross unrealized depreciation (44,419,787) 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) $50,002,385 
Tax Cost $5,688,369,467 

The tax-based components of distributable earnings as of period end were as follows:

Capital loss carryforward $(7,002,906) 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities and other investments $50,002,385 

Capital loss carryforwards are only available to offset future capital gains of the Fund to the extent provided by regulations and may be limited. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the Act), the Fund is permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period and such capital losses are required to be used prior to any losses that expire. The capital loss carryforward information presented below, including any applicable limitation, is estimated as of fiscal period end and is subject to adjustment.

No expiration  
Short-term $(7,002,906) 
Total no expiration $(7,002,906) 

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

 December 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 
Ordinary Income $150,350,808 $ 148,257,947 
Long-term Capital Gains 24,485,599 46,260,935 
Total $174,836,407 $ 194,518,882 

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. During the period, the Fund 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. The securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. The Fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. 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.

To-Be-Announced (TBA) Securities and Mortgage Dollar Rolls. During the period, the Fund transacted in TBA securities that involved buying or selling mortgage-backed securities (MBS) on a forward commitment basis. A TBA transaction typically does not designate the actual security to be delivered and only includes an approximate principal amount; however delivered securities must meet specified terms defined by industry guidelines, including issuer, rate and current principal amount outstanding on underlying mortgage pools. The Fund may enter into a TBA transaction with the intent to take possession of or deliver the underlying MBS, or the Fund may elect to extend the settlement by entering into either a mortgage or reverse mortgage dollar roll. Mortgage dollar rolls are transactions where a fund sells TBA securities and simultaneously agrees to repurchase MBS on a later date at a lower price and with the same counterparty. Reverse mortgage dollar rolls involve the purchase and simultaneous agreement to sell TBA securities on a later date at a lower price. Transactions in mortgage dollar rolls and reverse mortgage dollar rolls are accounted for as purchases and sales and may result in an increase to the Fund's portfolio turnover rate.

Purchases and sales of TBA securities involve risks similar to those discussed above for delayed delivery and when-issued securities. Also, if the counterparty in a mortgage dollar roll or a reverse mortgage dollar roll transaction files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Fund's right to repurchase or sell securities may be limited. Additionally, when a fund sells TBA securities without already owning or having the right to obtain the deliverable securities (an uncovered forward commitment to sell), it incurs a risk of loss because it could have to purchase the securities at a price that is higher than the price at which it sold them. A fund may be unable to purchase the deliverable securities if the corresponding market is illiquid.

TBA securities subject to a forward commitment to sell at period end are included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments under the caption "TBA Sale Commitments." The proceeds and value of these commitments are reflected in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as Receivable for TBA sale commitments and TBA sale commitments, at value, respectively.

Restricted Securities. The Fund 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 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

New Accounting Pronouncement. In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU), ASU 2017-08, which amends the amortization period for certain callable debt securities that are held at a premium. The amendment requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of these changes to the financial statements.

4. Derivative Instruments.

Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Fund's investment objective allows the Fund to enter into various types of derivative contracts, including futures contracts and swaps. Derivatives are investments whose value is primarily derived from underlying assets, indices or reference rates and may be transacted on an exchange or over-the-counter (OTC). Derivatives may involve a future commitment to buy or sell a specified asset based on specified terms, to exchange future cash flows at periodic intervals based on a notional principal amount, or for one party to make one or more payments upon the occurrence of specified events in exchange for periodic payments from the other party.

The Fund used derivatives to increase returns, to gain exposure to certain types of assets and to manage exposure to certain risks as defined below. The success of any strategy involving derivatives depends on analysis of numerous economic factors, and if the strategies for investment do not work as intended, the Fund may not achieve its objectives.

The Fund's use of derivatives increased or decreased its exposure to the following risks:

Credit Risk Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer of a financial instrument to make further principal or interest payments on an obligation or commitment that it has to the Fund.
 
Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk relates to the fluctuations in the value of interest-bearing securities due to changes in the prevailing levels of market interest rates. 

The Fund is also exposed to additional risks from investing in derivatives, such as liquidity risk and counterparty credit risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Fund will be unable to close out the derivative in the open market in a timely manner. Counterparty credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will not be able to fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Derivative counterparty credit risk is managed through formal evaluation of the creditworthiness of all potential counterparties. On certain OTC derivatives such as bi-lateral swaps, the Fund attempts to reduce its exposure to counterparty credit risk by entering into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (ISDA) Master Agreement with each of its counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreement gives the Fund the right to terminate all transactions traded under such agreement upon the deterioration in the credit quality of the counterparty beyond specified levels. The ISDA Master Agreement gives each party the right, upon an event of default by the other party or a termination of the agreement, to close out all transactions traded under such agreement and to net amounts owed under each transaction to one net payable by one party to the other. To mitigate counterparty credit risk on bi-lateral OTC derivatives, the Fund receives collateral in the form of cash or securities once the Fund's net unrealized appreciation on outstanding derivative contracts under an ISDA Master Agreement exceeds certain applicable thresholds, subject to certain minimum transfer provisions. The collateral received is held in segregated accounts with the Fund's custodian bank in accordance with the collateral agreements entered into between the Fund, the counterparty and the Fund's custodian bank. The Fund could experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral even though it is held by the Fund's custodian bank. The Fund's maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk related to bi-lateral OTC derivatives is generally the aggregate unrealized appreciation and unpaid counterparty payments in excess of any collateral pledged by the counterparty to the Fund. The Fund may be required to pledge collateral for the benefit of the counterparties on bi-lateral OTC derivatives in an amount not less than each counterparty's unrealized appreciation on outstanding derivative contracts, subject to certain minimum transfer provisions, and any such pledged collateral is identified in the Schedule of Investments. Exchange-traded futures contracts are not covered by the ISDA Master Agreement; however counterparty credit risk related to exchange-traded futures contracts may be mitigated by the protection provided by the exchange on which they trade.

Investing in derivatives may involve greater risks than investing in the underlying assets directly and, to varying degrees, may involve risk of loss in excess of any initial investment and collateral received and amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, there may be the risk that the change in value of the derivative contract does not correspond to the change in value of the underlying instrument.

Net Realized Gain (Loss) and Change in Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives. The table below, which reflects the impacts of derivatives on the financial performance of the Fund, summarizes the net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for derivatives during the period as presented in the Statement of Operations.

Primary Risk Exposure / Derivative Type Net Realized Gain (Loss) Change in Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) 
Credit Risk   
Swaps $(105,203) $107,128 
Interest Rate Risk   
Futures Contracts 134,294 229,770 
Totals $29,091 $336,898 

A summary of the value of derivatives by primary risk exposure as of period end is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments.

Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a specified underlying instrument for a fixed price at a specified future date. The Fund used futures contracts to manage its exposure to the bond market and fluctuations in interest rates.

Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) with a clearing broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the face value of the contract. Futures contracts are marked-to-market daily and subsequent daily payments (variation margin) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contracts and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or (depreciation). This receivable and/or payable, if any, is included in daily variation margin on futures contracts in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gain or (loss) is recorded upon the expiration or closing of a futures contract. The net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts during the period is presented in the Statement of Operations.

Any open futures contracts at period end are presented in the Schedule of Investments under the caption "Futures Contracts". The notional amount at value reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument or index at period end.

Swaps. A swap is a contract between two parties to exchange future cash flows at periodic intervals based on a notional principal amount. A bi-lateral OTC swap is a transaction between a fund and a dealer counterparty where cash flows are exchanged between the two parties for the life of the swap.

Bi-lateral OTC swaps are marked-to-market daily and changes in value are reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in the bi-lateral OTC swaps at value line items. Any upfront premiums paid or received upon entering a bi-lateral OTC swap to compensate for differences between stated terms of the swap and prevailing market conditions (e.g. credit spreads, interest rates or other factors) are recorded in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and amortized to realized gain or (loss) ratably over the term of the swap. Any unamortized upfront premiums are presented in the Schedule of Investments.

Payments are exchanged at specified intervals, accrued daily commencing with the effective date of the contract and recorded as realized gain or (loss). Some swaps may be terminated prior to the effective date and realize a gain or loss upon termination. The net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swaps during the period is presented in the Statement of Operations.

Any open swaps at period end are included in the Schedule of Investments under the caption "Swaps" and are representative of volume of activity during the period.

Credit Default Swaps. Credit default swaps enable the Fund to buy or sell protection against specified credit events on a single-name issuer or a traded credit index. Under the terms of a credit default swap the buyer of protection (buyer) receives credit protection in exchange for making periodic payments to the seller of protection (seller) based on a fixed percentage applied to a notional principal amount. In return for these payments, the seller will be required to make a payment upon the occurrence of one or more specified credit events. The Fund enters into credit default swaps as a seller to gain credit exposure to an issuer and/or as a buyer to obtain a measure of protection against defaults of an issuer. Periodic payments are made over the life of the contract by the buyer provided that no credit event occurs.

For credit default swaps on most corporate and sovereign issuers, credit events include bankruptcy, failure to pay or repudiation/moratorium. For credit default swaps on corporate or sovereign issuers, the obligation that may be put to the seller is not limited to the specific reference obligation described in the Schedule of Investments. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities, a credit event may be triggered by events such as failure to pay principal, maturity extension, rating downgrade or write-down. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities, the reference obligation described represents the security that may be put to the seller. For credit default swaps on a traded credit index, a specified credit event may affect all or individual underlying securities included in the index.

As a seller, if an underlying credit event occurs, the Fund will pay a net settlement amount of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the reference obligation or underlying securities comprising an index. Only in the event of the industry's inability to value the underlying asset will the Fund be required to take delivery of the reference obligation or underlying securities comprising an index and pay an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap.

As a buyer, if an underlying credit event occurs, the Fund will receive a net settlement amount of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the reference obligation or underlying securities comprising an index. Only in the event of the industry's inability to value the underlying asset will the Fund be required to deliver the reference obligation or underlying securities comprising an index in exchange for payment of an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap.

Typically, the value of each credit default swap and credit rating disclosed for each reference obligation in the Schedule of Investments, where the Fund is the seller, can be used as measures of the current payment/performance risk of the swap. As the value of the swap changes as a positive or negative percentage of the total notional amount, the payment/performance risk may decrease or increase, respectively. In addition to these measures, the investment adviser monitors a variety of factors including cash flow assumptions, market activity and market sentiment as part of its ongoing process of assessing payment/performance risk.

5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities and U.S. government securities, aggregated $260,227,989 and $775,667,425, respectively.

6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee and Expense Contract. Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (the investment adviser), an affiliate of FMR, provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract with the investment adviser, FMR pays the investment adviser a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, FMR also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Trustees, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.

Interfund Trades. The Fund 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. Interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note.

7. Security Lending.

The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the 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 the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. The 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, the Fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. The Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is maintained at the Fund's custodian and/or invested in cash equivalents. At period end, there were no security loans outstanding. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers, 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 interest income. Total security lending income during the period amounted to $38,824.

8. Expense Reductions.

FMR has voluntarily agreed to reimburse a portion of the Fund's operating expenses. For the period, the reimbursement reduced the expenses by $14,385.

In addition, through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of certain uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the Fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the Fund's custody expenses by $33,703.

9. Other.

The 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, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund according to the following schedule.

Fund Ownership % 
VIP Asset Manager Portfolio 6.8% 
VIP Asset Manager: Growth Portfolio 0.7% 
VIP Balanced Portfolio 20.9% 
VIP Investment Grade Bond Portfolio 71.6% 

10. Credit Risk.

The Fund invests a portion of its assets in structured securities of issuers backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans, credit card receivables and automotive loans. The value and related income of these securities is sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Fidelity Garrison Street Trust and Shareholders of Fidelity® VIP Investment Grade Central Fund:

Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity® VIP Investment Grade Central Fund (the "Fund"), a fund of Fidelity Garrison Street Trust, including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2017, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2017, and 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

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

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2017, 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 opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more of the Fidelity investment companies since 1999.

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 238 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. Abigail P. Johnson is an interested person and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman 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 Chairman, 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 Chairman 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. Marie L. Knowles serves as Chairman of the Independent Trustees 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 investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's high income, sector and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity® funds that are overseen by such other Boards. 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 and Audit Committees.  In addition, an ad hoc Board committee of Independent Trustees has worked with FMR to enhance the Board's oversight of investment and financial risks, legal and regulatory risks, technology risks, and operational risks, including the development of additional risk reporting to the Board.  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."

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the 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 (July 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017).

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 under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's 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 Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's 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. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's 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.

 A Annualized expense ratio reflects expenses net of applicable fee waivers.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts and Management Fees

VIP Investment Grade Central Fund

Each year, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (together, the Board), votes on the renewal of the management contract with Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM) and the sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund. FIMM and the sub-advisers are referred to herein as the Investment Advisers. The Board, assisted by the advice of fund counsel and Independent Trustees' counsel, requests and considers a broad range of information relevant to the renewal of the Advisory Contracts throughout the year.

The Board meets regularly and, at each of its meetings, covers an extensive agenda of topics and materials and considers factors that are relevant to its annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts, including the services and support provided to the fund and its shareholders. The Board has established four standing committees (Committees) — Operations, Audit, Fair Valuation, and Governance and Nominating — each composed of and chaired by Independent Trustees with varying backgrounds, to which the Board has assigned specific subject matter responsibilities in order to enhance effective decision-making by the Board. The Operations Committee, of which all of the Independent Trustees are members, meets regularly throughout the year and considers, among other matters, information specifically related to the annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts. The Board, acting directly and through its Committees, requests and receives information concerning the annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts. The Board also meets as needed to review matters specifically related to the Board's annual consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Contracts. Members of the Board may also meet with trustees of other Fidelity funds through ad hoc joint committees to discuss certain matters relevant to all of the Fidelity funds.

At its September 2017 meeting, the Board unanimously determined to renew the fund's Advisory Contracts. In reaching its determination, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant and reached a determination, with the assistance of fund counsel and Independent Trustees' counsel and through the exercise of its business judgment, that the renewal of the Advisory Contracts was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders and the fact that no fee is payable under the management contract was fair and reasonable.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided.  The Board considered Fidelity's staffing as it relates to the fund, including the backgrounds of investment personnel of Fidelity, and also considered the fund's investment objective, strategies, and related investment philosophy. The Independent Trustees also had discussions with senior management of Fidelity's investment operations and investment groups. The Board considered the structure of the investment personnel compensation program and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the fund.

Resources Dedicated to Investment Management and Support Services.  The Board reviewed the general qualifications and capabilities of Fidelity's investment staff, including its size, education, experience, and resources, as well as Fidelity's approach to recruiting, managing, and compensating investment personnel. The Board noted that Fidelity has continued to increase the resources devoted to non-U.S. offices, including expansion of Fidelity's global investment organization. The Board also noted that Fidelity's analysts have extensive resources, tools and capabilities that allow them to conduct sophisticated quantitative and fundamental analysis, as well as credit analysis of issuers, counterparties and guarantors. Further, the Board considered that Fidelity's investment professionals have sufficient access to global information and data so as to provide competitive investment results over time, and that those professionals also have access to sophisticated tools that permit them to assess portfolio construction and risk and performance attribution characteristics continuously, as well as to transmit new information and research conclusions rapidly around the world. Additionally, in its deliberations, the Board considered Fidelity's trading, risk management, compliance, and technology and operations capabilities and resources, which are integral parts of the investment management process.

Administrative Services.  The Board considered (i) the nature, extent, quality, and cost of advisory and administrative services performed by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates under the Advisory Contracts and under separate agreements covering transfer agency, pricing and bookkeeping, and securities lending services for the fund; (ii) the nature and extent of the supervision of third party service providers, principally custodians, subcustodians, and pricing vendors; and (iii) the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, the fund's compliance policies and procedures.

Investment Performance.  The Board considered whether the fund has operated in accordance with its investment objective, as well as its record of compliance with its investment restrictions. The Board reviewed the fund's absolute investment performance, as well as the fund's relative investment performance. In this regard, the Board noted that the fund is designed to offer a liquid investment option for other Fidelity funds and accounts and ultimately to enhance the performance of those funds and accounts.

Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the fund under the Advisory Contracts should continue to benefit the shareholders of the fund.

Competitiveness of Management Fee and Total Expense Ratio.  The Board considered that while the fund does not pay a management fee, Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) pays FIMM a management fee for providing services to the fund and that FMR receives fees for providing services to funds that invest in the fund. The Board also noted that FMR bears all expenses of the fund, except expenses related to the fund's investment activities (primarily custody expenses). Based on its review, the Board concluded that the management fee received for providing services to the fund and the fund's total expense ratio were reasonable in light of the services that the fund and its shareholders receive and the other factors considered.

Costs of the Services and Profitability.  The Board considered the level of Fidelity's profits in respect of all the Fidelity funds, as well as the profitability of the funds that invest in this fund.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC), independent registered public accounting firm and auditor to Fidelity and certain Fidelity funds, has been engaged annually by the Board as part of the Board's assessment of Fidelity's profitability analysis. PwC's engagement includes the review and assessment of the methodologies used by Fidelity in determining the revenues and expenses attributable to Fidelity's mutual fund business, and completion of agreed-upon procedures in respect of the mathematical accuracy of the fund profitability information and its conformity to established allocation methodologies. After considering PwC's reports issued under the engagement and information provided by Fidelity, the Board concluded that while other allocation methods may also be reasonable, Fidelity's profitability methodologies are reasonable in all material respects.

The Board also reviewed Fidelity's non-fund businesses and potential fall-out benefits related to the mutual fund business as well as cases where Fidelity's affiliates may benefit from or be related to the fund's business.

The Board concluded that the costs of the services provided by and the profits realized by Fidelity in connection with the operation of the fund were not relevant to the renewal of the Advisory Contracts because the fund pays no advisory fees and FMR bears all expenses of the fund, except expenses related to the fund's investment activities.

Economies of Scale.  The Board concluded that because the fund pays no advisory fees and FMR bears all expenses of the fund, except expenses related to the fund's investment activities, economies of scale cannot be realized by the fund.

Additional Information Requested by the Board.  In order to develop fully the factual basis for consideration of the Fidelity funds' advisory contracts, the Board requested and received additional information on certain topics, including: (i) Fidelity's fund profitability methodology, profitability trends for certain funds, and the impact of certain factors on fund profitability results; (ii) portfolio manager changes that have occurred during the past year and the amount of the investment that each portfolio manager has made in the Fidelity fund(s) that he or she manages; (iii) Fidelity's compensation structure for portfolio managers, research analysts, and other key personnel, including its effects on fund profitability, the rationale for the compensation structure, and the extent to which current market conditions have affected retention and recruitment; (iv) the arrangements with and compensation paid to certain fund sub-advisers on behalf of the Fidelity funds; (v) the terms of Fidelity's contractual and voluntary expense cap and waiver arrangements with the funds; (vi) the methodology with respect to competitive fund data and peer group classifications; (vii) Fidelity's transfer agent fee, expense, and service structures for different funds and classes relative to competitive trends, and the impact of the increased use of omnibus accounts; (viii) Fidelity's long-term expectations for its offerings in the workplace investing channel; (ix) new developments in the retail and institutional marketplaces and the competitive positioning of the funds relative to other investment products and services; (x) the approach to considering "fall-out" benefits; (xi) the impact of money market reform on Fidelity's money market funds, including with respect to costs and profitability; (xii) the funds' share class structures and distribution channels, including the impact of the Department of Labor's new fiduciary rule on the funds' distribution arrangements; and (xiii) explanations regarding the relative total expense ratios of certain funds and classes, total expense competitive trends and methodologies for total expense competitive comparisons, and actions that might be taken by Fidelity to reduce total expense ratios for certain classes. In addition, the Board considered its discussions with Fidelity throughout the year regarding enhanced information security initiatives and the funds' fair valuation policies.

Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board concluded that the advisory fee structures are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed.

The trust's Audit Committee has considered non-audit services that were not pre-approved that were provided by Deloitte Entities to Fund Service Providers to be compatible with maintaining the independence of Deloitte Entities in its audit of the Fund, taking into account representations from Deloitte Entities, in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules, regarding its independence from the Fund and its related entities and FMR’s review of the appropriateness and permissibility under applicable law of such non-audit services prior to their provision to the Fund Service Providers.


Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

 

The trust’s Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by a fund’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to the operations or financial reporting of the fund. 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 Committee’s 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 Chair’s 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 on a periodic basis.


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 Fund’s last two fiscal years relating to services provided to (i) the Fund or (ii) any Fund Service Provider that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund.
