Investment Objective and Principal Investment Strategies

Each of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Funds seek to maximize current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity by investing exclusively in high quality money market instruments. The Goldman Sachs Prime Obligations Fund and the Goldman Sachs Money Market Fund pursue this investment objective by investing in U.S. government securities, obligations of banks (which may exceed 25% of its assets), commercial paper and other short-term obligations of U.S. companies, states, municipalities and other entities, and repurchase agreements (“repos”). They may also invest in U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of foreign banks, foreign companies and foreign governments. The Goldman Sachs Treasury Obligations Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. Treasury obligations and repos collateralized by U.S. Treasury obligations. The Goldman Sachs Treasury Instruments Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. Treasury obligations, the interest from which is generally exempt from state income taxation. The Goldman Sachs Treasury Solutions Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. Treasury obligations and repos with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York collateralized by U.S. Treasury obligations. The Goldman Sachs Government Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. government securities and repos collateralized by such securities. The Goldman Sachs Federal Instruments Fund pursues the investment objective by investing only in U.S. government securities, the interest from which is generally exempt from state income taxation.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Money Market Portfolio Management Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Funds’ (the “Funds”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q What economic and market factors most influenced the money markets as a whole during the Reporting Period?

A Money market yields ended the Reporting Period slightly higher than they started, as the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) shifted its monetary policy stance. After raising the targeted federal funds rate in September and December 2018, Fed policymakers pivoted to a more accommodative stance, leaving it unchanged until July 2019, when they implemented an interest rate cut. Other influences on the money markets during the Reporting Period were the continuation of the Fed’s balance sheet normalization and the dovish stance of most developed markets’ central banks. (Balance sheet normalization refers to the steps the Fed is taking to reverse quantitative easing and remove the substantial monetary accommodation it has provided to the economy since the financial crisis began in 2007. Dovish tends to imply lower interest rates; opposite of hawkish.)

When the Reporting Period started in September 2018, U.S. economic growth was robust, though some major economies, including those of the Eurozone, the U.K. and China, exhibited a gradual weakening trend. The Fed raised the targeted federal funds rate by 25 basis points, citing ongoing strength in the U.S. labor market and a pickup in household spending and business fixed investment. (A basis point is 1/100th of a percentage point.) The Fed’s dot plot pointed to another interest rate increase by the end of 2018 and three more during 2019. (The “dot plot” shows rate projections of the members of the Fed’s Open Market Committee.) Fed Chair Jerome Powell delivered an upbeat assessment of the U.S. economy, which supported market expectations for these additional Fed rate hikes in 2019. In December 2018, Fed policymakers raised the targeted federal funds rate by an additional 25 basis points, much as the market had expected, but lowered their projection for 2019 monetary policy tightening from three rate hikes to two.

In the first quarter of 2019, the Fed kept its monetary policy unchanged, with its dot plot projecting no interest rate hikes at all during 2019. The U.S. economy continued to benefit from strength in household consumption, which was underpinned by a healthy labor market. During the second calendar quarter, the Fed remained on hold and noted that inflation softness might be due to “transitory factors.” Meanwhile, market speculation about possible 2019 Fed rate cuts increased due to an accumulation of factors, including soft inflation, weakness in U.S. economic data, continued global economic growth headwinds from unresolved U.S.-China trade negotiations and weakness in the manufacturing

sector. In June 2019, eight of the 12 members on the Federal Open Market Committee projected interest rate cuts during the 2019 calendar year. Indeed, at its July policy meeting, the Fed delivered its first interest rate cut since 2008, with Fed Chair Powell describing it as a “mid-cycle adjustment.” The Fed also announced it would stop its balance sheet normalization at the end of September 2019, two months earlier than expected. In August 2019, as U.S. economic data showed signs of weakness and U.S.-China trade tensions persisted, market expectations for additional Fed rate cuts increased. In this environment, the U.S. Treasury yield curve partially inverted. (Yield curve is a spectrum of interest rates based on maturities of varying lengths.) More specifically, the spread, or differential, between the yields on two-year and 10-year U.S. Treasury securities inverted for the first time since 2007, meaning yields on two-year maturities were higher than those of 10-year U.S. Treasury securities. (A full inversion occurs when shorter-term yields exceed all longer-term yields.)

Q What key factors were responsible for the performance of the Funds during the Reporting Period?

A The Funds’ yields rose during the Reporting Period, driven by the increase in money market yields, which occurred primarily because of the economic and market factors discussed above. When the Reporting Period began, the money market yield curve was upwardly sloping. However, it inverted as the Fed cut the targeted federal funds rate.

Q How did you manage the Funds during the Reporting Period?

A Collectively, the Funds had investments in commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper, U.S. Treasury securities, government agency securities, time deposits, certificates of deposit, floating rate securities, repurchase agreements (“repo”), government guaranteed paper, municipal securities and variable rate demand notes during the Reporting Period.

In our commercial paper strategies (i.e., the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Money Market Fund and the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund), we maintained somewhat short weighted average maturities of between 34 and 40 days during the first four months of the Reporting Period in response to rather consistent clarity from the Fed around potential interest rate hikes in September and December 2018. For the same reason, we maintained relatively short weighted average maturities of between 16 and 37 days in our government repo strategies (i.e., the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund and the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Solutions Fund) and between 27 days and 50 days in our government non-repo strategies (i.e., the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund and the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Instruments Fund). The Funds’ purchases were focused on floating rate securities, asset-backed commercial paper and government agency securities, all of which helped us to manage duration. (Duration is a measure of the Funds’ sensitivity to changes in interest rates).

After the December 2018 rate hike, the Fed’s path became less clear to us. As a result, we lengthened the weighted average maturities of our commercial paper, government repo and government non-repo strategies. Within our commercial paper strategies, we extended weighted average maturities to between 44 days and 52 days from January through May 2019. In our government repo strategies and our government non-repo strategies, we lengthened weighted average maturities to between 42 days and 50 days in December 2018. Then, from January through May 2019, we managed the weighted average maturities of our government repo strategies between 10 days and 46 days and our government non-repo strategies between 28 days and 47 days. As the Fed’s dovish bias became more apparent, we maintained the weighted average maturity of our commercial paper strategies between 38 days and 50 days from June through August 2019. During the same time period, we managed the weighted average maturity of our government repo strategies and government non-repo strategies between 16 days and 53 days and between 39 and 54 days, respectively. Purchases were focused overall on fixed-rate securities as we sought to manage the Funds’ duration.

The weighted average maturity of a money market fund is a measure of its price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Also known as effective maturity, weighted average maturity measures the weighted average of the maturity date of bonds held by the Funds, taking into consideration any available maturity shortening features.

Q How did you manage the Funds’ weighted average life during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we managed the weighted average life of the Funds below 120 days. In our commercial paper strategies, we managed the Funds’ weighted average life in a range between approximately 70 days and

2

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

approximately 103 days. In our government repo and government non-repo strategies, we managed the Funds’ weighted average life in a range between approximately 58 days and approximately 118 days. The weighted average life of a money market fund is a measure of a money market fund’s price sensitivity to changes in liquidity and/or credit risk.

Under amendments to SEC Rule 2a-7 that became effective in May 2010, the maximum allowable weighted average life of a money market fund is 120 days. While one of the goals of the SEC’s money market fund rule is to reinforce conservative investment practices across the money market fund industry, our security selection process has long emphasized conservative investment choices.

Q Did you make any changes to the Funds’ portfolios during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we made adjustments to the Funds’ weighted average maturities and their allocations to specific investments based on then-current market conditions, our near-term view and anticipated and actual Fed monetary policy statements.

Q What is the Funds’ tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

A At the end of the Reporting Period, we expected the U.S. economic expansion to continue, albeit at a slower pace, with strength in consumer spending and services offsetting weakness in business investment and the manufacturing sector. Overall, we expected inflation to remain muted, with economic weakness tempering upside inflation pressures. Regarding the Fed’s monetary policy, we expected the U.S. central bank to deliver “insurance interest rate cuts” during the final months of 2019 due to slowing U.S. economic growth against a backdrop of subdued inflation and elevated geopolitical uncertainty.

Overall, the Funds continue to be flexibly guided by shifting market conditions, and we have positioned them to seek to take advantage of anticipated interest rate movements. As always, we intend to continue to use our actively managed approach to seek the best possible return within the framework of our Funds’ investment guidelines and objectives. In addition, we will continue to manage interest, liquidity and credit risk daily. We will also continue to closely monitor economic data, Fed policy and any shifts in the money market yield curve, as we strive to navigate the interest rate environment.

The returns represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Funds’ investment returns will fluctuate. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Please visit our Web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

¹  Each of the Treasury Obligations, Money Market, Treasury Instruments and Treasury Solutions Funds offers nine separate classes of shares (Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management, Premier and Resource), the Federal Instruments Fund offers eight separate classes of shares (Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management and Premier), the Prime Obligations Fund offers ten separate classes of shares (Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management, Premier, Resource and Drexel Hamilton Class), and the Government Fund offers thirteen separate classes of shares (Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management, Premier, Resource, Drexel Hamilton Class, Class R6, Class A and Class C), each of which is subject to different fees and expenses that affect performance and entitles shareholders to different services. The Institutional, Drexel Hamilton Class, and Class R6 Shares do not have distribution and/or service (12b-1) or administration and/or service (non-12b-1) fees. The Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Service, Cash Management, Premier, Resource, Class A and Class C Shares offer financial institutions the opportunity to receive fees for providing certain distribution, administrative support and/or shareholder services (as applicable). As an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, these share classes pay combined distribution and/or service (12b-1), administration and/ or service (non-12b-1) fees (as applicable) at the following contractual rates: the Select Shares pay 0.03%, Preferred Shares pay 0.10%, Capital Shares pay 0.15%, Administration Shares pay 0.25%, Service Shares pay 0.50%, Cash Management Shares pay 0.80%, Premier Shares pay 0.35%, Resource Shares pay 0.65%, Class A Shares pay 0.25% and Class C Shares pay 1.00%. If these fees were reflected in the above performance, performance would have been reduced. In addition, the Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.

²  The investment adviser may contractually agree to waive or reimburse certain fees and expenses until a specified date. The investment adviser may also voluntarily waive certain fees and expenses, and such voluntary waivers may be discontinued or modified at any time without notice. The performance shown above reflects any waivers or reimbursements that were in effect for all or a portion of the periods shown. When waivers or reimbursements are in place, the Fund’s operating expenses are reduced and the Fund’s yield and total returns to the shareholder are increased.

³  The net asset value (NAV) represents the net assets of the class of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares of the class outstanding. A Fund’s total return reflects the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions.

⁴  The SEC 7-Day Current Yield is calculated in accordance with securities industry regulations and does not include net capital gains. SEC 7-Day Current Yield may differ slightly from the actual distribution rate of a given Fund because of the exclusion of distributed capital gains, which are non-recurring. The SEC 7-Day Current Yield more closely reflects a Fund’s current earnings than do the Fund Total Return figures.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2019

1. ORGANIZATION

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

Fund	Share Classes Offered	Diversified/ Non-Diversified
Federal Instruments	Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, and Cash Management	Diversified
Government	Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Class A, Class C, Resource, Cash Management, and Class R6	Diversified
Money Market, Prime Obligations, Treasury Instruments, Treasury Obligations, and Treasury Solutions	Institutional, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource, and Cash Management	Diversified

Class C Shares may typically be acquired only in an exchange for Class C Shares of another Goldman Sachs Fund. Class C Shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00% during the first 12 months, measured from the time the original shares subject to the CDSC were acquired.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to management agreements (the “Agreements”) with the Trust.

The following Funds were designated by the Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) as “institutional money market funds” under Rule 2a-7 under the Act: Financial Square Money Market Fund and Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund (the “Institutional Money Market Funds”). Each of the Institutional Money Market Funds must price its shares at a net asset value (“NAV”) reflecting market-based values of its portfolio securities (i.e., at a “floating” NAV) rounded to the fourth decimal place (e.g., $1.0000).

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

A.  Investment Valuation — The investment valuation policy of the Funds, except for the Institutional Money Market Funds, is to use the amortized-cost method permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the Act for valuing portfolio securities. The amortized-cost method of valuation involves valuing a security at its cost and thereafter applying a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. Normally, a security’s amortized cost will approximate its market value. Under procedures and tolerances approved by the Trustees, GSAM evaluates daily the difference between each Fund’s NAV per share using the amortized costs of its portfolio securities and the Fund’s NAV per share using market-based values of its portfolio securities. The Institutional Money Market Funds’ investment valuation policy is to value its portfolio securities only at market-based values. The market-based value of a portfolio security is determined, where readily available, on the basis of market quotations provided by pricing services or securities dealers, or, where accurate market quotations are not readily available, on the basis of the security’s fair value as determined in accordance with Valuation Procedures approved by the Trustees. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which may consider (among other things): (i) yield or price with respect to debt securities that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost.

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

D.  Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies (mutual funds) and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable and tax exempt income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Funds are not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are declared and recorded daily and paid monthly by the Funds and may include short-term capital gains. Long-term capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually. A Fund may defer or accelerate the timing of the distribution of short-term capital gains (or any portion thereof).

Net capital losses, if any, are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.

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

E.  Forward Commitments — A forward commitment involves entering into a contract to purchase or sell securities, typically on an extended settlement basis, for a fixed price at a future date. The purchase of securities on a forward commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines before the settlement date. Conversely, the sale of securities on a forward commitment basis involves the risk that the value of the securities sold may increase before the settlement date. Although a Fund will generally purchase securities on a forward commitment basis with the intention of acquiring the securities for its portfolio, the Fund may dispose of forward commitments prior to settlement which may result in a realized gain or loss.

F.  Repurchase Agreements — Repurchase agreements involve the purchase of securities subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). During the term of a repurchase agreement, the value of the underlying securities held as collateral on behalf of a Fund, including accrued interest, is required to exceed the value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest. The gross value of repurchase agreements is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held at the Funds’ custodian or designated sub-custodians under tri-party repurchase agreements.

An MRA governs transactions between a Fund and select counterparties. An MRA contains provisions for, among other things, initiation of the transaction, income payments, events of default, and maintenance of securities for repurchase agreements. An MRA also permits offsetting with collateral to create one single net payment in the event of default or similar events, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of a counterparty.

If the seller defaults, a Fund could suffer a loss to the extent that the proceeds from the sale of the underlying securities and other collateral held by the Fund are less than the repurchase price and the Fund’s costs associated with delay and enforcement of the repurchase agreement. In addition, in the event of default or insolvency of the seller, a court could determine that a Fund’s interest in the collateral is not enforceable, resulting in additional losses to the Fund.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and terms and conditions contained therein, the Funds, together with other funds of the Trust and registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates, may transfer uninvested cash into joint accounts, the daily aggregate balance of which is invested in one or more repurchase agreements. Under these joint accounts, the Funds maintain pro-rata credit exposure to the underlying repurchase agreements’ counterparties. With the exception of certain transaction fees, the Funds are not subject to any expenses in relation to these investments.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

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

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

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

The Trustees have approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Funds, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have delegated to GSAM day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation (including both the amortized cost and market-based methods of valuation) of the Funds’ investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies related to the market-based method of valuation, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

As of August 31, 2019, all investments and repurchase agreements, other than those held by the Institutional Money Market Funds, are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. All investments for the Institutional Money Market Funds are classified as Level 2, with the exception of treasury securities of G8 countries which are generally classified as Level 1. Please refer to the Schedules of Investments for further detail.

4. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A.  Management Agreements — Under the Agreements, GSAM manages the Funds, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreements, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Funds’ business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

B.  Administration, Service and/or Shareholder Administration Plans — The Trust, on behalf of each applicable Fund, has adopted Administration, Service and/or Shareholder Administration Plans (the “Plans”) to allow Class C, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource and Cash Management Shares to compensate service organizations (including

4. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued)

Goldman Sachs) for providing varying levels of account administration and/or personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Plans provide for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets of such shares.

C.  Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Plans — The Trust, on behalf of Class A Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, Goldman Sachs, which serves as distributor (the “Distributor”), is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services and personal and account maintenance services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of Class C, Resource and Cash Management Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted Distribution Plans subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution Plans, Goldman Sachs as Distributor is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C, Resource and Cash Management Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of the Service Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act to allow Service Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan provides for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Services Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

D.  Distribution Agreement — Goldman Sachs, as Distributor of the shares of the Funds pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, may retain a portion of the Class C Shares’ CDSC. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, Goldman Sachs has advised that it retained $2,296 in CDSCs with respect to Class C Shares of the Financial Square Government Fund.

E.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Funds for a fee pursuant to a Transfer Agency Agreement. The fee charged for such transfer agency services is accrued daily and paid monthly and is equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

F.  Other Agreements — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Funds (excluding transfer agency fees and expenses, administration fees (as applicable), service fees (as applicable), shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, 0.014% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. These Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least December 28, 2019, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees.

In addition, the Funds have entered into certain offset arrangements with the custodian which may result in a reduction of the Funds’ expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

I.  Line of Credit Facility — As of August 31, 2019, the Funds participated in a $580,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Funds based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the Funds did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 30, 2019 the facility was $770,000,000.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include a Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV and liquidity. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, a Fund’s yield will tend to be lower than prevailing market rates, and the market value of its securities or instruments may also be adversely affected. A low interest rate environment poses additional risks to a Fund, because low yields on the Fund’s portfolio holdings may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s ability to provide a positive yield to its shareholders, pay expenses out of Fund assets, or, at times, maintain a stable $1.00 share price (or, for the Institutional Money Market Funds, minimize the volatility of the Fund’s NAV per share). The risks associated with changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets and a Fund’s investments. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Funds.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, the Funds trade financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which a Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Credit/Default Risk — An issuer or guarantor of a security held by a Fund, or a bank or other financial institution that has entered into a repurchase agreement with the Fund, may default on its obligation to pay interest and repay principal or default on any other obligation. Additionally, the credit quality of securities may deteriorate rapidly, which may impair a Fund’s liquidity and cause significant deterioration in NAV.

7. INDEMNIFICATIONS

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

8. OTHER MATTERS

Exemptive Orders — Pursuant to SEC exemptive orders, the Funds may enter into certain principal transactions, including repurchase agreements, with Goldman Sachs.

Report of Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Money Market Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund, and Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Solutions Fund:

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Goldman Sachs Federal Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Government Fund, Goldman Sachs Money Market Fund, Goldman Sachs Prime Obligations Fund, Goldman Sachs Treasury Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Treasury Obligations Fund, and Goldman Sachs Treasury Solutions Fund (seven of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of August 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended August 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019, 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 August 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019, 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 August 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent 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.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended August 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Institutional Shares, Select Shares, Preferred Shares, Capital Shares, Administration Shares, Premier Shares, Service Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Resource Shares, Cash Management Shares or Class R6 Shares of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including contingent deferred sales charges (with respect to Class C Shares); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and distribution, service, administration and/or shareholder administration fees (with respect to all share classes except Institutional Shares and Class R6 Shares) and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Institutional Shares, Select Shares, Preferred Shares. Capital Shares, Administration Shares, Premier Shares, Service Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Resource Shares, Cash Management Shares or Class R6 Shares of the Funds 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 from March 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019, which represents a period of 184 days in a 365-day year.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ 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 Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. 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.

* Expenses for each share class are calculated using each Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended August 31, 2019. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

* Expenses for each share class are calculated using each Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended August 31, 2019. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year.

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — FINANCIAL SQUARE FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Money Market Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Instruments Fund, Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund, and Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Solutions Fund (the “Funds”) are investment portfolios of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Funds at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Funds.

The Management Agreement was most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2020 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 11-12, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”).

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

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, including information about:

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

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

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

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

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

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

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

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

(e) fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

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

(ii) the Fund’s expense trends over time; and

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

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

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

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

(i) whether the Fund’s existing management fee adequately addressed any economies of scale;

136

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — FINANCIAL SQUARE FUNDS

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

(j) a summary of the “fall-out” benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund, including the fees received by the Investment Adviser’s affiliates from the Fund for transfer agency, distribution and other services;

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) information regarding portfolio trading and how the Investment Adviser carries out its duty to seek best execution;

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Fund to its peers using rankings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2018. The information on each Fund’s investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ending on the applicable dates, to the extent that each Fund had been in existence for those periods.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Funds’ risk profiles, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

137

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — FINANCIAL SQUARE FUNDS

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

The Trustees considered the performance of the Funds in light of their respective investment policies and strategies. They noted that, although the Funds had operated in a challenging yield environment since 2009, yields had improved, thereby reducing the amount of fees waived and/or reimbursed by the Investment Adviser. They also acknowledged the uncertainty of the future interest rate environment. The Trustees considered that, during the relevant period, the Investment Adviser had contractually waived fees for the Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund, reimbursed expenses for the Financial Square Federal Instruments and Financial Square Prime Obligations Funds, and had voluntarily waived fees for the Financial Square Money Market and Financial Square Prime Obligations Funds, in order to maintain competitive yields. They observed that the Investment Adviser had previously made certain contractual management fee waivers permanent in February 2018, lowering the Funds’ contractual management fee, and had also reduced its voluntary management fee waivers for the Financial Square Money Market and Financial Square Prime Obligations Funds throughout the year with the rise in interest rates. They also acknowledged the growth of the Funds, particularly the relative growth of the Financial Square Money Market Fund and Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund, in recent periods. The Trustees also considered that the Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund, Financial Square Government Fund, Financial Square Treasury Instruments Fund, Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund and Financial Square Treasury Solutions Fund had each maintained a stable net asset value per share and that the net asset value per share for each of the Financial Square Money Market Fund and Financial Square Prime Obligations Fund had experienced minimal principal volatility. In light of these considerations, the Trustees believed that the Funds were providing investment performance within a competitive range for investors.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

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

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

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations. They noted that the Investment Adviser and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”) had voluntarily waived fees for the Financial Square Money Market and Financial Square Prime Obligations Funds, contractually waived fees for the Financial Square Federal Instruments Fund, and reimbursed expenses for the Financial Square Federal Instruments and Financial Square Prime Obligations Funds in order to maintain competitive yields. They observed that the Investment Adviser had previously made certain contractual management fee waivers permanent in February 2018, lowering the Funds’ contractual management fee, and had also reduced its voluntary management fee waivers for the Financial Square Money Market and Financial Square Prime Obligations Funds throughout the year with the rise in interest rates. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Funds differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

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

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be

138

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — FINANCIAL SQUARE FUNDS

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

allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for each Fund was provided for 2018 and 2017, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Funds.

The Trustees noted that the Funds do not have management fee breakpoints. They considered the asset levels in the Funds; the Funds’ recent purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and their realized profits; information comparing the contractual fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other money market funds in the peer groups; and the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to limit certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels. They considered a report prepared by the Outside Data Provider, which surveyed money market funds’ management fee arrangements and use of breakpoints. The Trustees also considered the competitive nature of the money market fund business and the competitiveness of the fees charged to the Funds by the Investment Adviser.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs; (b) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Funds with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (c) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Funds on behalf of its other clients; (d) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (e) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Fund Distributor; (f) Goldman Sachs’ ability to engage in principal transactions with the Funds under exemptive orders from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission permitting such trades; (g) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Funds; and (h) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Funds’ third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Funds and Their Shareholders

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

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by each of the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser’s costs and each Fund’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Adviser’s continued management likely would benefit each Fund and its shareholders and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to each Fund until June 30, 2020.

What Differentiates the Goldman Sachs Growth Strategies’ Investment Process?

For over 30 years, the Goldman Sachs Growth Strategies has consistently applied a three-step investment process based on our belief that wealth is created through the long-term ownership of growing businesses.

∎ Make decisions as long-term business owners rather than as stock traders

∎ Perform in-depth, fundamental research

∎ Focus on long-term structural and competitive advantages

Result

Performance driven by the compounding growth of businesses over time — not short-term market movements

Long-term participation in growing businesses — less reliance on macroeconomic predictions, market timing, sector rotation or momentum

Identify what we believe to be high quality growth businesses. Some investment criteria may include:

∎ Strength of brand name

∎ Size of market share

∎ Pricing power

∎ Recurring revenue streams

∎ Free cash flow

∎ Length of product life cycle

∎ Long-term growth prospects

∎ Seasoned management

Result

Investments in businesses that we believe are strategically positioned for consistent, sustainable long-term growth

∎ Perform rigorous valuation analysis of every potential investment

∎ Use valuation tools and analytics to determine whether the business franchises we consider high-quality also represent sound investments

Result

Reasoned investment decisions based on our understanding of what each business is worth

Relatively attractive buying opportunities as the stock prices of quality growth businesses fluctuate over time

MARKET REVIEW

Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity Growth Funds

Market Review

Overall, U.S. equities gained ground amidst heightened volatility during the 12 months ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”). The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (the “S&P 500 Index”) ended the Reporting Period with a return of 2.92%. The Russell 3000^® Index generated a return of 1.31%.

U.S. equities inched higher as the Reporting Period began in September 2018, driven by robust U.S. macroeconomic data relative to other developed markets and to emerging markets. Against a backdrop of solid economic growth, near-target inflation and healthy monthly job gains, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) raised interest rates by 25 basis points, in line with market expectations. (A basis point is 1/100^th of a percentage point.) The successful outcome of North American Free Trade Agreement negotiations to its new incarnation as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement near month end was also supportive of market sentiment. U.S. equities then fell in October 2018, as investor sentiment rapidly deteriorated on escalating trade and political uncertainty and in a delayed response to an earlier sell-off in global rates. The correction resulted in tighter U.S. financial conditions, which had been resilient to Fed interest rate hikes earlier in the calendar year. U.S. equities saw a reprieve in November 2018 on more accommodative comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell and encouraging progress in U.S.-China trade talks. However, the recovery was short-lived. U.S. equities subsequently plunged in December 2018 on renewed investor fears sparked by the arrest of a Chinese technology executive, a partial U.S. Federal government shutdown, the U.S. President’s criticism of Fed Chair Powell and reignited corporate earnings growth concerns. The Fed raised interest rates by another 25 basis points.

After a volatile end to 2018, a U.S. equity market rally to begin 2019 marked the best first quarter performance for the S&P 500 Index since 1998. Fed commentary provided a supportive background for U.S. equities, as Fed Chair Powell reiterated a “patient” approach to monetary policy that included a pause in interest rate hikes and a nearing end to its balance sheet runoff. (The Fed unwinds, or shrinks, its balance sheet by selling securities on its balance sheet and/or not reinvesting maturing securities.) The U.S. unemployment rate remained well below trend at 3.8% in February with a steady increase in wages of 3.4% year over year. Housing data continued to show strength in the first calendar quarter, with new home sales reaching 667,000 in February 2019, bringing the three-month average up to 630,000. Strength in housing data could be partially attributed to a steep decline in mortgage rates, resulting from a more cautious Fed. The University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index was a point of significant strength in the U.S. economy, steadily climbing in each month of the first quarter of 2019 and eventually reaching 98.4 in March, its highest level in six months. Economic growth concerns, however, failed to completely abate, as fourth quarter Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) was revised down 0.4% in March to 2.2%. While the revision was further evidence of a slowing U.S. economy, the result was largely priced in by equity markets and thus had a limited effect on stock prices outside of the financials sector, which tends to be more interest rate sensitive.

Following a sharp rally in the first quarter of 2019, the S&P 500 Index posted a somewhat more moderate gain in the second calendar quarter to close its best first half since 1997. Trade tensions between the U.S. and China dominated headlines and broadly added noise to the markets. (In a broad analytical context, noise refers to information or activity that confuses or misrepresents genuine underlying trends.) In April 2019, there was a widely-held optimistic outlook for a possible trade deal, but such optimism faded in May when the U.S. President threatened to raise then-current tariffs and impose new duties on $300 billion of additional Chinese imports. Sanctions were temporarily placed on a Chinese telecommunications giant until they were lifted in June 2019, when any additional tariffs or compromise were postponed. Also during the second quarter of 2019, the U.S. equity markets kept a close eye on the Fed. After steadily raising interest rates since 2015 to a range of 2.25% to 2.50%, the Fed alluded to a more accommodative approach. The U.S. equity market consensus had largely priced in at least one interest rate cut by the end of 2019, if not sooner. Economic indicators were mixed during the second calendar quarter, with consumer sentiment remaining elevated, while nonfarm payrolls and manufacturing indices across the board fell short of market expectations.

MARKET REVIEW

After an exceptionally strong first half of 2019, the S&P 500 Index delivered more muted, but still positive, returns in July 2019. The Fed lowered interest rates by 25 basis points, marking the first interest rate cut since 2008. Fed Chair Powell’s tone was dovish throughout the month, though more hawkish sentiment at the announcement of the cut raised uncertainty surrounding future easing of monetary policy. (Dovish language tends to suggest lower interest rates; opposite of hawkish.) More than 60% of S&P 500 Index companies had reported earnings by the end of July 2019. Key themes for the corporate earnings reporting season revolved around a healthy consumer backdrop, softer industrial results and global economic uncertainty. The U.S. President announced a one-year exemption of 110 Chinese products from the 25% tariffs that were added on July 6, 2018. However, he later threatened to introduce new tariffs on $325 billion of Chinese goods despite the truce that was agreed upon at the G20 Summit at the end of June. (The G20 (or Group of Twenty) is an international forum for the governments and central bank governors from 19 countries and the European Union. It was founded in 1999 with the aim to discuss policy pertaining to the promotion of international financial stability.)

The S&P 500 Index fell in August 2019. The month’s headlines were primarily dominated by trade tensions, as the U.S. President announced an intention to impose additional tariffs on remaining Chinese goods not yet subject to tariffs, causing increased market volatility. Economic data was largely mixed, with manufacturing data and consumer confidence showing signs of weakness but domestic demand holding steady in the context of a strong labor market and rising wages.

For the Reporting Period overall, utilities, real estate and consumer staples, traditionally considered more defensive sectors, were the best performing sectors in the S&P 500 Index. The weakest performing sectors in the S&P 500 Index were energy, financials and materials, each considered a more economically-sensitive cyclical sector.

Within the U.S. equity market, there was broad divergence in performance, with large-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000^® Index, posting single-digit positive absolute returns, mid-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell Midcap^® Index, eking out a modest positive absolute return of less than 1%, and small-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000^® Index, posting double-digit negative absolute returns. From a style perspective, growth-oriented stocks significantly outpaced value-oriented stocks across the capitalization spectrum. (All as measured by the FTSE Russell indices.)

Looking Ahead

At the end of the Reporting Period, we maintained our view of U.S. equities as the most favorable asset class, offering what we saw as reasonable valuations relative to solid macroeconomic and corporate fundamentals. After a significant repricing of assets and market expectations in the fourth quarter of 2018, the U.S. equity market rebounded with the strongest first half since 1997 despite geopolitical tensions and trade relations oscillating between positive and negative developments. Equities were buoyed by declining 10-year U.S. Treasury yields, as investors expected potential interest rate cuts, a dramatic shift from the Fed’s actions one year prior. While we were encouraged by the strong start to 2019, we did expect to see more signals of an aging cycle moving forward, such as the dip seen in August 2019, which may be challenging to navigate and require more selectivity by investors. Yet without clearer indications of deteriorating fundamentals, we thought it was still too early to position the Funds for a downturn in global economic growth or corporate earnings.

For the remainder of 2019, we expect choppier conditions. Within this more volatile backdrop, we believe a thorough understanding of both market and company-specific variables may be crucial to navigating the evolving landscape. That said, our investment philosophy will not change based on short-term fluctuations in markets. We plan to maintain our focus on what we consider to be high quality companies with strong market positions and experienced management teams. In our opinion, emphasizing these durable businesses can potentially set up the Funds to perform well amidst heightened volatility.

MARKET REVIEW

Regardless of market direction, our fundamental, bottom-up stock selection continues to drive our process, rather than headlines or sentiment. We maintain high conviction in the companies the Funds own and believe they have the potential to outperform relative to the broader market regardless of economic growth conditions. As always, we maintain our focus on seeking companies that we believe will generate long-term growth in today’s ever-changing market conditions.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Goldman Sachs Blue Chip Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at the time of purchase) (“Net Assets”) in a diversified portfolio of equity investments of “blue chip” companies. Blue chip companies are companies that, in the view of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”), enjoy strong market positions, seasoned management teams, solid financial fundamentals and high-quality reputations. Although blue chip companies generally have large or medium market capitalizations, the Investment Adviser may invest in companies that it believes have good, long-term prospects to become well-known, established or blue chip companies. The Fund may continue to invest up to 20% of its Net Assets in foreign securities.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Blue Chip Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 6.80%, 6.04%, 7.27%, 7.05%, 7.22%, 6.58% and 7.20%, respectively. These returns compare to the 2.92% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Standard & Poor’s 500^® Index (the “S&P 500 Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund outperformed the S&P 500 Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period due primarily to effective stock selection. Sector allocation as a whole detracted from relative performance, albeit modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A The sectors that contributed most positively to the Fund’s relative performance during the Reporting Period were health care, industrials and consumer discretionary, wherein effective stock selection helped most in each. The only sector to detract from the Fund’s relative results during the Reporting Period was financials, wherein stock selection was particularly challenging.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A The Fund benefited most relative to the S&P 500 Index from positions in broadcast tower real estate investment trust American Tower, medical equipment company Danaher and payments processor Visa.

American Tower consistently reported strong organic earnings during the Reporting Period, driven by the strong performance of total property revenue and other profitability metrics. At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed American Tower may benefit from secular trends in growing data usage, taking advantage of its dominant market share, global expansion and additional investment opportunities to fuel long-term growth. With recurring revenue streams and strong organic leasing growth at an attractive valuation relative to its peers, in our opinion, we maintained our view that American Tower is a high quality and durable growth company.

In November 2018, Danaher’s stock was driven less by company-specific events but rather rose along with the health care equipment industry as a whole. Then, in February 2019, Danaher announced an agreement with General Electric (“GE”) to acquire the biopharma business of GE Life Sciences. The market’s reception of the deal was overwhelmingly positive, and Danaher’s shares climbed through the end of the month. We were also highly optimistic about the transaction, which makes Danaher the largest player within bioprocessing and gives the company a multi-year value creation opportunity through potential top-line

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

acceleration and cost savings. GE Life Sciences is a high quality asset, and in our opinion, significantly improves Danaher’s positioning within the biopharma industry. With this in mind, at the end of the Reporting Period, we had renewed confidence that Danaher is a high quality company, led by what we see as an outstanding management team, that generates solid free cash flow and has high barriers to entry in its key business segments.

Shares of Visa posted strong performance throughout the Reporting Period along with the broader information technology sector. The company consistently reported solid earnings, driven by strength in payments volume, processed transactions and cross-border volume. At the end of the Reporting Period, we maintained our view of Visa as a high quality asset with compelling upside to revenues and free cash flow should it continue to capitalize on secular trends in technology. Specifically, we feel the company is well positioned as the world transitions to online, digital payments across multiple large opportunity channels.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Among those stocks detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the S&P 500 Index were positions in oil and gas production company EOG Resources, financial services company Northern Trust and health insurance company Humana.

Shares of EOG Resources, a new purchase for the Fund during the Reporting Period, were pressured as the price of crude oil experienced heightened volatility. Despite this, we were confident at the end of the Reporting Period in its management’s ability to create a business model that can compete against attractive investments in other sectors by demonstrating sustainable growth, free cash flow generation and returns. In our view, EOG Resources wants to compete not just with energy companies but with all constituents of the S&P 500 Index. The company has stated it plans to grow its production and generate returns on capital at levels seen only in a select group of S&P 500 Index companies.

An earnings miss and broad market volatility in the fourth quarter of 2018 weighed on Northern Trust’s shares. For most of the Reporting Period, its stock closely mirrored the broader asset management sub-industry of the financials sector, which experienced weakness toward the end of the Reporting Period. That said, at the end of the Reporting Period, we were positive on Northern Trust’s wealth management business relative to its peers and thought the company’s corporate and institutional services business presented a good opportunity for operating leverage.

Humana’s stock traded up and down in a volatile fashion throughout the Reporting Period. The first catalyst occurred in November 2018 when Humana reported its third quarter 2018 earnings, in which revenues and earnings came in above consensus expectations, sending the company’s shares higher. These gains were reversed later in the month when news spread regarding a Medicare proposal that would potentially reduce or remove the rebates that managed care firms receive from drug makers in an effort to curb excessive drug pricing. Its shares fell again late in February 2019, along with other managed care stocks, as pharmaceutical company executives testified before the U.S. Congress to address criticism over drug pricing. During the hearings, the executives deflected the blame to insurance companies, such as Humana, arguing the rebates should be eliminated. Given that Humana derives a portion of its revenue from these rebates, we remained somewhat cautious and continued to monitor developments on this front. Then, in April 2019, Humana’s stock fell again, as persistent concerns around what are being popularly called “Medicare for All” proposals and the potential impact such a program might have pressured its shares. All that said, at the end of the Reporting Period, we believed Humana has opportunities for future growth, as we expect it to benefit from Medicare patient growth and aging of our population.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we initiated a Fund position in pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca. We were encouraged by AstraZeneca’s momentum in product sales growth and by its strong operating leverage. We like the company and feel it has best in class top and bottom line growth potential over the next several years. Additionally, AstraZeneca has multiple phase 3 readouts across different drugs throughout 2019, which we believe could continue to drive growth.

We established a Fund position in health care products company Johnson & Johnson. Its shares had plunged in December 2018 after it was reported its executives knew for decades that its baby powder sometimes tested positive for asbestos. In response, its management dismissed the

6

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

allegations and said the product is safe and asbestos-free. Given that the stock had its worst day in 16 years, we felt investors had overreacted to the accusations and viewed the sell-off as a buying opportunity. In our view, Johnson & Johnson has a healthy financial profile and diversified suite of growing businesses. It has approximately $20 billion in cash and securities and generated approximately $16 billion in operating cash flow in the first three quarters of 2018 — more than twice dividends paid. Furthermore, the company beat the market’s quarterly earnings estimates during the Reporting Period, with psoriasis treatments and cancer drug sales driving the success, while signature baby products and consumer goods showed signs of improvement. Overall, we view Johnson & Johnson as a high quality health care name and decided to take advantage of what we saw as its attractive valuation on weakness.

Conversely, we exited the Fund’s position in pharmaceuticals company Pfizer during the Reporting Period. Following the stock’s strong performance through the first half of the Reporting Period, we decided to reallocate capital to names with what we felt were relatively more attractive risk/reward profiles. That said, we continued to like the company at the end of the Reporting Period given what we feel is its strong balance sheet and shareholder-friendly management and planned to continue monitoring its risk/reward balance going forward.

We sold the Fund’s position in Bank of America during the Reporting Period. We had first bought the stock in early 2015, and during the Fund’s holding period, the stock significantly outperformed the S&P 500 Index. After such strong performance, we felt the risk/reward profile of Bank of America had slightly less favorable growth potential and decided to exit the position and reallocate the capital elsewhere.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Sean Gallagher, a portfolio manager of the Fund, retired effective September 30, 2018. The Fund continues to be managed by Steven M. Barry and Stephen E. Becker.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s exposure to health care, consumer staples and communication services increased and its allocations to information technology, financials and materials decreased compared to the S&P 500 Index. The Fund’s position in cash increased during the Reporting Period.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund had overweighted positions relative to the S&P 500 Index in health care, consumer staples, industrials and communication services. On the same date, the Fund had underweighted positions compared to the S&P 500 Index in financials and information technology and was rather neutrally weighted to the S&P 500 Index in consumer discretionary, energy, materials and real estate. The Fund had no position at all in utilities at the end of the Reporting Period.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Goldman Sachs Capital Growth Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, in companies that are considered by the Investment Adviser to be positioned for long-term growth. The Fund invests in both value and growth companies. The Fund’s fundamental equity investment process involves evaluating potential investments based on specific characteristics believed to indicate a high-quality business with sustainable growth, including strong business franchises, favorable long-term prospects, and excellent management.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Capital Growth Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 3.72%, 3.01%, 4.14%, 3.57%, 3.96%, 4.13%, 3.47% and 4.12%, respectively. These returns compare to the 2.49% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000^® Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund outperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period due primarily to effective stock selection. Sector allocation as a whole detracted from relative performance, albeit modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A The sectors that contributed most positively to the Fund’s relative performance during the Reporting Period were information technology, health care and materials, wherein stock selection in each proved effective. The only two sectors that detracted from the Fund’s relative performance during the Reporting Period were industrials and consumer staples, wherein stock selection in each dampened results.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A Among those stocks the Fund benefited most from relative to the Russell Index were positions in metal packaging company Ball, construction company Martin Marietta Materials and pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly.

Ball produces metal packaging goods for beverages, household products and aerospace technologies. Its stock performed strongly through most of the Reporting Period, driven by strong earnings reports in November 2018 and February and May 2019 in which the company beat market estimates on earnings per share while also benefitting from robust growth in global beverage can volumes. The company grew its market share and also reiterated guidance for free cash flow and earnings, which the market viewed positively. At the end of the Reporting Period, we viewed Ball as a highly diversified company that has growing market share in the defense industry, as a leader in the fragmented aerosol space and as one of the more sustainable companies in beverage can production. Additionally, we saw positive upside potential moving forward given the wide range of commercial opportunities to leverage its global leadership position along with the potential for multi-year margin improvement.

Martin Marietta Materials engages in the provision of aggregates, including crushed stone, sand and gravel through its network of quarries and distribution yards. Most of its stock’s strong performance can be attributed to the end of July 2019 when the company announced earnings in line with consensus expectations while also raising earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization guidance. At the end of the Reporting Period, we were positive on what we saw as the company’s long runway of strong pricing performance made available from its consolidation of its Texas and Colorado markets, given that aggregates is a local business with strong pricing power. Martin Marietta Materials, in our view, has proven to have a thoughtful management team for creating shareholder value through capital deployment. Finally, we recognized cyclical

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

upside potential given the relatively depressed levels for aggregates production during the Reporting Period.

Eli Lilly’s stock climbed through the fourth quarter of 2018 after the company reported solid quarterly results and better than consensus expected 2019 guidance, featuring significant improvements in revenue growth and long-term sales growth. Its shares also climbed through the first quarter of 2019, boosted by improving market sentiment on the prospects of its business. At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed the company had strong risk/reward prospects versus its peers, and we saw upside potential in its diabetes franchise.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Among those stocks detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in diversified specialty products company DuPont de Nemours, crude oil refining company Marathon Petroleum and oil and gas exploration company Concho Resources.

During the Reporting Period, DuPont de Nemours went through multiple changes, first spinning off Dow, Inc. and then later spinning off its agricultural business named Corteva. The remaining company, now called DuPont de Nemours, experienced weakness at the beginning of May 2019 after announcing earnings in line with market estimates on most metrics but weaker than market expected forward guidance. Despite the weakness, we remained positive on DuPont de Nemours at the end of the Reporting Period, as we believed it was well positioned for best in class growth, margin improvement potential and robust free cash flow growth.

Marathon Petroleum’s stock was weak in the fourth quarter of 2018 along with the equity market as a whole. Marathon Petroleum’s share price then fell again in May 2019 when the company reported quarterly results that missed on earnings per share, driven primarily by weakness in refining and retail margins. On the positive side, the company continued to buy back shares and also reported strong operating cash flow and capital expenditures. Its stock fell again in August 2019 despite reporting solid earnings and exceeding market expectations on earnings per share. Even with its mixed earnings and volatile performance, we remained positive on Marathon Petroleum at the end of the Reporting Period and felt its acquisition of Andeavor seemed to be going well and on track to continue to unlock further synergies for the combined company, now the largest U.S. refiner by capacity. Furthermore, we were positive on the outlook for both the industry and the business. We also believed in its management’s ability to achieve synergy targets and maintain its focus on returning capital to shareholders. We believed Marathon Petroleum was a high quality company with a strong balance sheet, stable free cash flow and robust return on equity, and we were positive on its prospects ahead.

Shares of Concho Resources traded down through much of the Reporting Period, as the company released mixed results in both February and April 2019. Its stock then dropped sharply in early August 2019 following yet another disappointing quarter, which we viewed as breaching our investment thesis for the company. Following the release, we decided to exit the Fund’s position in Concho Resources, as we were less confident in the company’s ability to execute and deliver on its growth plan.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we initiated a Fund position in multinational consumer goods company Procter & Gamble. We believe the company could start to see an inflection from its recent consolidation, and we remain positive that its price cuts could help improve sales in emerging markets. Additionally, we are confident in its management’s ability to adapt to the changing landscape and various business challenges. We think its innovative pipeline and brand awareness may well lead to continued sales momentum going forward.

We established a Fund position in pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca. We were encouraged by AstraZeneca’s momentum in product sales growth and by its strong operating leverage. We like the company and feel it has best in class top and bottom line growth potential over the next several years. Additionally, AstraZeneca has multiple phase 3 readouts across different drugs throughout 2019, which we believe could continue to drive growth.

Conversely, in addition to the sale of Concho Resources already mentioned, we eliminated the Fund’s position in Signature Bank, a regional bank primarily located in the northeastern U.S. We decided to exit the stock ahead of the expiring New York rent regulation and reform, as we believed the uncertainty would be a headwind for the stock.

11

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

We felt it prudent to sell the position and allocate the capital to other companies that we believed to be less exposed to that political risk.

We exited the Fund’s position in pharmaceutical company Shire during the Reporting Period. In December 2018, it was announced that Takeda Pharmaceutical shareholders voted to approve the company’s acquisition of Shire. Following the approval of the acquisition and the stock’s strong performance, we decided to sell the position and reallocate the capital elsewhere.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Sean Gallagher, a portfolio manager of the Fund, retired effective September 30, 2018. The Fund continues to be managed by Steven M. Barry and Stephen E. Becker.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, relative to the Russell Index, the Fund’s allocation to information technology decreased.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund had an overweighted position relative to the Russell Index in the materials sector and an underweighted position relative to the Russell Index in the industrials sector. On the same date, the Fund was rather neutrally weighted to the Russell Index in information technology, health care, financials, consumer discretionary, consumer staples, energy, real estate, utilities and communication services.

Goldman Sachs Concentrated Growth Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund invests primarily in U.S. equity investments selected for their potential to achieve capital appreciation over the long term. The Fund typically holds 30-40 companies that are considered by the Investment Adviser to be positioned for long-term growth. The Fund may invest in securities of companies of any capitalization. Although the Fund invests primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, it may invest up to 25% of its total assets in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in countries with emerging markets or economies (“emerging countries”) and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in fixed income securities, such as government, corporate and bank debt obligations.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Concentrated Growth Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 3.58%, 2.81%, 3.98%, 3.83%, 4.01%, 3.36% and 4.00%, respectively. These returns compare to the 4.27% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000^® Growth Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund posted solid positive absolute returns but underperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period. Stock selection overall proved effective. Sector allocation as a whole detracted from relative performance.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Challenging stock selection in the consumer staples, information technology and consumer discretionary sectors detracted from the Fund’s relative results most during the Reporting Period. Having an underweight to information technology, which outpaced the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, also hurt. The sectors that contributed most positively to the Fund’s relative performance during the Reporting Period were health care, real estate and communication services, wherein effective stock selection in each helped. Having an overweighted allocation to real estate, which was the best performing sector in the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, also boosted the Fund’s relative results.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Among those stocks detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in diversified specialty products company DuPont de Nemours, semiconductor company NVIDIA and biotechnology company BioMarin Pharmaceuticals.

During the Reporting Period, DuPont de Nemours went through multiple changes, first spinning off Dow, Inc. and then later spinning off its agricultural business named Corteva. The remaining company, now called DuPont de Nemours, experienced weakness at the beginning of May 2019 after announcing earnings in line with market estimates on most metrics but weaker than market expected forward guidance. Despite the weakness, we remained positive on DuPont de Nemours at the end of the Reporting Period, as we believed it was well positioned for best in class growth, margin improvement potential and robust free cash flow growth.

NVIDIA engages in the design and manufacture of computer graphics, processors, chipsets and related multimedia software. During the Reporting Period, the company reported disappointing earnings, as trade uncertainties and concerns around demand persisted. While we believe NVIDIA is a

15

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

high quality advanced chip designer, we decided to exit the position in favor of companies we felt had more favorable near-term risk/reward profiles.

BioMarin Pharmaceuticals, which develops and commercializes therapies for people with serious and life-threatening rare diseases, was added to the Fund’s portfolio in September 2018. In February 2019, despite reporting fourth quarter 2018 earnings results in line with market expectations, its stock experienced trading volatility, as is typical for stocks in the smaller capitalization biotechnology space. Investors viewed 2019 as a pivotal year for BioMarin Pharmaceuticals, as two of its major drugs were scheduled to release phase 3 studies updates by June 2019. In July 2019, despite the release of positive data from one of the company’s key drugs, Valrox, its stock trended downward, as the pharmaceutical industry as a whole experienced weakness. Even with this decline, we were optimistic at the end of the Reporting Period about the sustainability of BioMarin Pharmaceuticals’ existing rare disease initiatives and viewed the research being done in areas such as dwarfism and brain disorders to be promising areas for growth. Taken together, we thought the company’s base business and pipeline could meaningfully support profitability and free cash flow moving forward.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A The Fund benefited most relative to the Russell Index from positions in medical equipment company Danaher, pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly and broadcast tower real estate investment trust American Tower.

In November 2018, Danaher’s stock was driven less by company-specific events but rather rose along with the health care equipment industry as a whole. Then, in February 2019, Danaher announced an agreement with General Electric (“GE”) to acquire the biopharma business of GE Life Sciences. The market’s reception of the deal was overwhelmingly positive, and Danaher’s shares climbed through the end of the month. We were also highly optimistic about the transaction, which makes Danaher the largest player within bioprocessing and gives the company a multi-year value creation opportunity through potential top-line acceleration and cost savings. GE Life Sciences is a high quality asset, and in our opinion, significantly improves Danaher’s positioning within the biopharma industry. With this in mind, at the end of the Reporting Period, we had renewed confidence that Danaher is a high quality company, led by what we see as an outstanding management team, that generates solid free cash flow and has high barriers to entry in its key business segments.

Eli Lilly’s stock climbed through the fourth quarter of 2018 after the company reported solid quarterly results and better than consensus expected 2019 guidance, featuring significant improvements in revenue growth and long-term sales growth. After these strong gains, given the concentrated nature of this Fund’s portfolio, we elected to exit the Fund’s position early in 2019.

American Tower consistently reported strong organic earnings during the Reporting Period, driven by the strong performance of total property revenue and other profitability metrics. At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed American Tower may benefit from secular trends in growing data usage, taking advantage of its dominant market share, global expansion and additional investment opportunities to fuel long-term growth. With recurring revenue streams and strong organic leasing growth at what we considered to be an attractive valuation relative to its peers, we maintained our view that American Tower is a high quality and durable growth company.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A In addition to the purchase of BioMarin Pharmaceuticals, already mentioned, we established a Fund position in pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca. We were encouraged by AstraZeneca’s momentum in product sales growth and by its strong operating leverage. We like the company and feel it has best in class top and bottom line growth potential over the next several years. Additionally, AstraZeneca has multiple phase 3 readouts across different drugs throughout 2019, which we believe could continue to drive growth.

We initiated a Fund position in online marketplace management company Intercontinental Exchange during the Reporting Period. We believe the company is set up well to capitalize on market uncertainty, driving its contract volumes higher. We also observe that its management shows a deliberate push to create more consistency and control over the company’s ability to grow revenue through differing market conditions. Overall, we feel the operating environment remains strong for Intercontinental Exchange,

16

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

and we have conviction in its management’s ability to execute.

Conversely, in addition to the sales already mentioned, we exited the Fund’s position in integrated circuit manufacturer Analog Devices. Its stock was a strong performer in 2018 and rallied to start 2019, but we felt its risk/reward profile was no longer as compelling. We decided to sell the position and reallocate the proceeds to other high quality growth companies.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A There were no changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s exposure to industrials, financials, materials and energy increased and its allocations to information technology and health care decreased relative to the Russell Index.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund had overweighted positions relative to the Russell Index in the energy, materials, real estate, health care and communication services sectors. On the same date, the Fund had underweighted positions compared to the Russell Index in information technology and consumer discretionary. The Fund was rather neutrally weighted relative to the Russell Index in industrials, financials and consumer staples and had no position at all in the utilities sector at the end of the Reporting Period.

Goldman Sachs Flexible Cap Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at time of purchase) (“Net Assets”) in equity investments in small-, mid- and large-cap issuers. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, in companies that are considered by the Investment Adviser to be positioned for long-term growth of capital. This strategy is combined with a quantitative risk allocation process that is used to assist portfolio construction and trading decisions.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Flexible Cap Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 3.07%, 2.30%, 3.47%, 3.40%, 3.56%, 2.89% and 3.47%, respectively. These returns compare to the 2.92% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the S&P 500 Index (with dividends reinvested), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Most share classes of the Fund outperformed the S&P 500 Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period due primarily to effective stock selection. Sector allocation as a whole detracted from relative performance, albeit modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A The sectors that contributed most positively to the Fund’s relative performance during the Reporting Period were health care, materials and communication services. Effective stock selection drove results in each of these sectors. The sectors that detracted most from the Fund’s relative results during the Reporting Period were consumer discretionary, energy and consumer staples, wherein stock selection proved challenging.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A Among those stocks the Fund benefited most from relative to the S&P 500 Index were positions in metal packaging company Ball, biopharmaceutical company Celgene and medical equipment company Danaher.

Ball produces metal packaging goods for beverages, household products and aerospace technologies. Its stock performed strongly through most of the Reporting Period, driven by strong earnings reports in November 2018 and February and May 2019 in which the company beat market estimates on earnings per share while also benefitting from robust growth in global beverage can volumes. The company grew its market share and also reiterated guidance for free cash flow and earnings, which the market viewed positively. At the end of the Reporting Period, we viewed Ball as a highly diversified company that has growing market share in the defense industry, as a leader in the fragmented aerosol space and as one of the more sustainable companies in beverage can production. Additionally, we saw positive upside potential moving forward given the wide range of commercial opportunities to leverage its global leadership position along with the potential for multi-year margin improvement.

We added a Fund position in Celgene during the fourth quarter of 2018 and shortly thereafter it was announced that Bristol-Myers Squibb would be acquiring Celgene for a sizable premium, causing its shares to spike. We were positive on Celgene given what we saw as its strong pipeline of upcoming drugs and believed the deal could be value accretive. Initially, we were encouraged by the news of the potential acquisition. However, as time went on, we felt the valuation of Celgene had become less appealing and elected to exit the Fund’s position in the spring of 2019.

In November 2018, Danaher’s stock was driven less by company-specific events but rather rose along with the health care equipment industry as a whole. Then, in February 2019, Danaher announced an agreement with General Electric (“GE”) to acquire the biopharma business of GE Life

20

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Sciences. The market’s reception of the deal was overwhelmingly positive, and Danaher’s shares climbed through the end of the month. We were also highly optimistic about the transaction, which makes Danaher the largest player within bioprocessing and gives the company a multi-year value creation opportunity through potential top-line acceleration and cost savings. GE Life Sciences is a high quality asset, and in our opinion, significantly improves Danaher’s positioning within the biopharma industry. With this in mind, at the end of the Reporting Period, we had renewed confidence that Danaher is a high quality company, led by what we see as an outstanding management team, that generates solid free cash flow and has high barriers to entry in its key business segments.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the S&P 500 Index were positions in oil and gas exploration company Concho Resources, transportation and logistics company XPO Logistics and crude oil refining company Marathon Petroleum.

Shares of Concho Resources, a new purchase for the Fund during the Reporting Period, traded down, as the company released mixed results in both February and April 2019. Its stock then dropped sharply in early August 2019 following yet another disappointing quarter, which we viewed as breaching our investment thesis for the company. Following the release, we decided to exit the Fund’s position in Concho Resources, as we were less confident in the company’s ability to execute and deliver on its growth plan.

While there were no stock-specific reasons for the decline in XPO Logistics’ share price during a volatile October 2018, the company, along with others in the industrials and freight industries, underperformed for the month. In mid-December 2018, a hedge fund issued a report that sent XPO Logistics’ shares tumbling more than 26% in one day. We were not particularly troubled by our initial read-through of the analysis but recognized several aspects that warranted follow-up. After assessing various factors, we confirmed our previously held view that XPO Logistics’ business was well aligned with the structural changes in the freight industry, such as outsourcing and labor-saving technology, e-commerce exposure and the implementation of electronic logging devices. The market eventually recognized this as well, and its shares recovered all of the losses prompted by the hedge fund report. However, unrelated to the report, XPO Logistics’ stock tumbled in February 2019 after the company released its fourth quarter 2018 earnings report that revealed results below market estimates on earnings per share, revenue and 2019 guidance. Its management cited a reduction in business from its largest client, expressing it would negatively impact its growth for 2019. These developments led us to exit the Fund’s position in XPO Logistics.

Marathon Petroleum’s stock was weak in the fourth quarter of 2018 along with the equity market as a whole. Marathon Petroleum’s share price then fell again in May 2019 when the company reported quarterly results that missed on earnings per share, driven primarily by weakness in refining and retail margins. On the positive side, the company continued to buy back shares and also reported strong operating cash flow and capital expenditures. Its stock fell again in August 2019 despite reporting solid earnings and exceeding market expectations on earnings per share. Even with its mixed earnings and volatile performance, we remained positive on Marathon Petroleum at the end of the Reporting Period and felt its acquisition of Andeavor seemed to be going well and on track to continue to unlock further synergies for the combined company, now the largest U.S. refiner by capacity. Furthermore, we were positive on the outlook for both the industry and the business. We also believed in its management’s ability to achieve synergy targets and maintain its focus on returning capital to shareholders. We believed Marathon Petroleum was a high quality company with a strong balance sheet, stable free cash flow and robust return on equity, and we were positive on its prospects ahead.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A In addition to the purchases mentioned earlier, we re-initiated a Fund position in fast-food restaurant company McDonald’s. Its stock had lagged the overall market during the third quarter of 2018, which we believe presented an attractive opportunity to add back what we view as a best-in-class franchise to the Fund’s portfolio after selling it in the Fund’s prior fiscal year. We are positive on many of the strategic initiatives McDonald’s has been rolling out, including modernized restaurants, a revamped value menu and fresh beef hamburgers, which we believe can help boost its stock. In our view, McDonald’s has a strong balance sheet

21

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

with robust free cash flow and good return on equity. We also believe it was attractively valued at the time of purchase and poised for growth and market share gains.

We established a Fund position in Adobe, a provider of digital marketing and media solutions. We believe Adobe has one of the best management teams in the software industry and seems to be on the right side of a major wave of spending in its category.

Conversely, in addition to those sales already mentioned, we exited the Fund’s position in Abbott Laboratories. Since initiating the position in 2017, its stock had performed well. After such strong returns, we felt it prudent to sell the position and allocate the proceeds to other companies we believed to have more attractive valuations and opportunities moving forward.

We sold the Fund’s position in cigarette manufacturer Altria Group during the Reporting Period. Multiple investigations into the safety of e-cigarettes from JUUL Labs — in which Altria Group holds a 35% stake — hurt the stock’s performance during the Reporting Period. Further, Walmart raised its age to purchase tobacco products to 21 and halted the sale of fruit and dessert nicotine flavors, another hit to JUUL Labs and Altria Group. Following these headwinds, we decided to exit the position and allocate the capital elsewhere.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A There were no changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s exposure to the health care sector increased relative to the S&P 500 Index.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund was rather neutrally weighted to all 11 sectors in the S&P 500 Index.

Goldman Sachs Growth Opportunities Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund invests primarily in medium-sized growth companies. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective of seeking long-term growth of capital by investing, under normal circumstances, in companies that are considered by the Investment Adviser to be positioned for long-term growth. Although the Fund invests primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, it may invest up to 25% of its total assets in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in emerging countries and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest in privately held companies and companies that only recently began to trade publicly.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Growth Opportunities Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 8.00%, 7.24%, 8.34%, 7.82%, 8.33%, 8.38%, 7.75% and 8.35%, respectively. These returns compare to the 5.96% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell Midcap^® Growth Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund outperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period due primarily to effective stock selection. Sector allocation as a whole detracted from relative performance, albeit modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A The sectors that contributed most positively to the Fund’s relative performance during the Reporting Period were health care, real estate and industrials, wherein effective stock selection drove results. Detracting most from the Fund’s relative results was challenging stock selection in the financials, energy and information technology sectors. Having a slight overweight to energy, which was the weakest performing sector in the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, and having an underweight to information technology, which outperformed the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, also hurt.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A The Fund benefited most relative to the Russell Index from positions in SBA Communications, Teleflex and Dollar General.

SBA Communications is a wireless communications infrastructure real estate investment trust that owns and operates wireless communication towers. Its shares rallied during the Reporting Period, as the company consistently reported strong earnings, driven by improvements in organic leasing growth. At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed SBA Communications was well positioned, as it has higher exposure to domestic macro tower leasing drivers and less exposure to the choppier trends within the international markets than its peers.

Shares of medical technology company Teleflex experienced a volatile window of trading during the fourth quarter of 2018, much like the broader equity market. However, its stock was strong in the first quarter of 2019 following its earnings announcement in February 2019 in which Teleflex reported fourth quarter 2018 results that beat market expectations for earnings per share with revenue in line. Its stock also rose in June and July 2019, the latter again on the back of strong earnings in which the company beat market estimates on earnings per share. At the end of the Reporting Period, we felt Teleflex was well positioned to capitalize on the evolving trends in medical purchasing, as improved

25

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

patient outcomes and reduced hospital stays become more of a priority. Furthermore, we felt its deep product pipeline laid a healthy groundwork for growth ahead, as its management continued to allocate capital into key disease markets. Overall, we thought Teleflex was a high quality growth company with strong cash flows, and we were constructive on its opportunity to expand margins as it works to benefit from secular growth themes.

Earnings reports in both May and August 2019 caused discount retailer Dollar General’s stock to jump. In both instances, earnings per share came in ahead of market expectations, as the company continued to see traction on its sales initiatives. Same-store sales were also better than consensus estimates, and operating margins expanded, leading its stock higher. At the end of the Reporting Period, we were positive on the company’s growth initiatives, which we felt may help continue to propel it forward. We believed Dollar General was attractively valued at the end of the Reporting Period and were positive on its management team and the direction it appeared to be taking the company.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in PVH, GoDaddy and Xilinx.

PVH designs and manufactures apparel and footwear through a variety of brand names. Amidst a more challenging environment for retail during the fourth quarter of 2018, PVH reported mixed results in November 2018. While its earnings per share and revenue were higher, its Calvin Klein sales were disappointing for the second consecutive quarter. PVH’s stock slid throughout December 2018 alongside the broader market, which experienced heightened volatility. Subsequently, its share price decline could be attributed to broader macroeconomic trends, such as slowdowns in North American and Chinese retail markets and currency headwinds, rather than to company-specific factors. We viewed these issues as temporary and continued to like PVH at the end of the Reporting Period for what we saw as its stable free cash flow generation, solid balance sheet and strong consumer recognition among its leading brands, Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger. We also believed Calvin Klein’s strategic pivot toward mid-range clothing could help the brand gain market share. Additionally, we were positive on the company’s geographic diversity, which may allow for more flexibility and global growth opportunities ahead.

GoDaddy engages in web hosting services. Its stock slid during the beginning of 2019 following its earnings release in which company reported results in line with market expectations across virtually all key metrics. Despite the release, its shares declined as investors were disappointed following an extended period of upside surprises. Additionally, the company announced a change to its senior management team later in the Reporting Period. However, at the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to believe GoDaddy’s end markets were rather steady and presented a favorable long-term growth opportunity. Overall, we remained positive on GoDaddy, as we believed it was a high quality growth company that has demonstrated an ability to deliver consistent earnings growth over time. We felt it was a well diversified business led by a strong management team.

Xilinx, a new purchase for the Fund during the Reporting Period, engages in the designing and developing of programmable devices and associated technologies. While its stock significantly outperformed the Russell Index during the first half of the Reporting Period due to consecutive impressive earnings releases, the Fund’s underweight position led the stock to be a top detractor from its relative results. While we continued to like the company and the end-markets it is exposed to, including fifth-generation (“5G”) and public cloud, we felt its valuation was not compelling and elected to exit the position and allocate the capital to what we considered to be more favorable risk/reward opportunities.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A We initiated a Fund position in global diversified industrial manufacturing company Ingersoll-Rand during the Reporting Period. Ingersoll-Rand’s products range from complete air compressor systems, tools, plugs, material handling systems and more. We are positive on the company’s core heating, ventilation and air conditioning (“HVAC”) business on both the commercial and residential side. In our view, its management is working to sustain strong double-digit order book growth by focusing on investments in energy efficiency, building controls and taking advantage of favorable pricing power. We also view the company’s acquisition of Precision Flow Systems as a prudent capital

26

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

allocation decision, as the asset finally became available after a decade of monitoring it, and its existing fluid control business and attractive end-market should further synergize with Ingersoll-Rand’s offerings and generate incremental cash flow, in our opinion. (End-market is used to indicate where the final transaction takes place in a value chain. Typically it is where the end-user is located, meaning the individual, organization, industry or region for whom the product or service has been created and who is not expected to resell that product or service.)

We established a Fund position in O’Reilly Automotive. The company owns and operates retail outlets in the U.S. We were positive on what we saw as the company’s solid earnings announcement in February 2019 giving strong same-store sales guidance and strong quarter-to-date trends. We believe demand may well remain robust due to increasing miles driven given low unemployment and relatively stable fuel prices. Overall, O’Reilly Automotive remains a best in class operator, in our view.

Conversely, in addition to the sale of Xilinx already mentioned, we exited the Fund’s position in Dunkin’ Brands Group. After the company reported its fourth quarter 2018 earnings, in which it beat consensus earnings per share estimates but missed on revenues, we noticed a significant disconnect between the results and its management’s optimism around the business. Our outlook was more negative, as the company exhausted numerous strategies during 2018, but store traffic and same-store sales both remained soft. Given that the stock was a solid performer during the Reporting Period, we elected to sell the stock and reallocate gains to other businesses with what we viewed as more promising long-term growth prospects.

We eliminated the Fund’s position in Global Payments, a provider of payment technology and software solutions. Following an extended span of strong performance, we decided to realize gains and reallocate the capital to other high quality growth names in the payments space. We felt that, as we get deeper in the economic cycle, there may be other names in the industry that could provide high quality characteristics in the event of an economic downturn.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A On October 23, 2018, managing director and the Fund’s co-lead portfolio manager Ashley Woodruff left the firm to pursue another opportunity. Ashley Woodruff has been a portfolio manager for the Fund, alongside Steven Barry, since 2014. Steven Barry is the architect of the Mid Cap Growth Strategy and has consistently managed the strategy since its inception nearly two decades ago. He became the sole portfolio manager for the strategy, including the Fund. Ashley Woodruff’s consumer discretionary research coverage was assumed by Stephen Becker, a managing director with 19 years of industry experience. Steven Barry will continue to serve as chief investment officer of the Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity team.

Subsequently, in July 2019, Jenny Chang, portfolio manager on the U.S. Equity team became a portfolio manager for the Mid Cap Growth strategy, including the Fund, alongside Steven Barry. Jenny Chang joined GSAM in 2016 and has 20 years of industry experience.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s exposure to consumer discretionary, industrials, materials and real estate increased and its allocations to information technology and health care decreased relative to the Russell Index. The Fund’s position in cash decreased during the Reporting Period.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund had overweighted positions relative to the Russell Index in the consumer discretionary, health care and consumer staples sectors. On the same date, the Fund had underweighted positions compared to the Russell Index in information technology and communication services. The Fund was rather neutrally weighted to the Index in industrials, financials, materials, energy and real estate and had no position at all in utilities at the end of the Reporting Period.

Goldman Sachs Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (“Net Assets”) in a diversified portfolio of equity investments in small- and mid-cap issuers. Small- or mid-cap issuers are issuers with public stock capitalizations within the outside range of the market capitalizations of companies constituting the Russell 2000 Growth Index and the Russell Midcap Growth Index. As of September 30, 2018, the outside capitalization range of the companies in these indexes was between $12 million and $75 billion. Although the Fund invests primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, it may invest up to 25% of its Net Assets in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in countries with emerging markets or economies and securities quoted in foreign currencies.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 4.33%, 3.50%, 4.62%, 4.13%, 4.57%, 4.67%, 4.07% and 4.67%, respectively. These returns compare to the -3.70% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2500^® Growth Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund outperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period due primarily to effective stock selection. Sector allocation as a whole had a rather neutral effect on the Fund’s relative performance during the Reporting Period.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Effective stock selection in the information technology, health care and consumer discretionary sectors helped the Fund’s performance most relative to the Russell Index. Having an overweighted allocation to information technology, which was the strongest performing sector in the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, also buoyed the Fund’s relative results. The only sector to detract from the Fund’s relative results during the Reporting Period was financials, wherein stock selection was challenging.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A Among those stocks the Fund benefited most from relative to the Russell Index were positions in medical technology company Teleflex, childcare provider Bright Horizons Family Solutions and precision oncology company Guardant Health.

Shares of Teleflex experienced a volatile window of trading during the fourth quarter of 2018, much like the broader equity market. However, its stock was strong in the first quarter of 2019 following its earnings announcement in February 2019 in which Teleflex reported fourth quarter 2018 results that beat market expectations for earnings per share with revenue in line. Its stock also rose in June and July 2019, the latter again on the back of strong earnings in which the company beat market estimates on earnings per share. At the end of the Reporting Period, we felt Teleflex was well positioned to capitalize on the evolving trends in medical purchasing, as improved patient outcomes and reduced hospital stays become more of a priority. Furthermore, we felt its deep product pipeline laid a healthy groundwork for growth ahead, as its management continued to allocate capital into key disease markets. Overall, we thought Teleflex was a high quality growth company with strong cash flows, and we were constructive on its opportunity to expand margins as it works to benefit from secular growth themes.

Shares of Bright Horizons Family Solutions rose in May and June 2019 following an earnings announcement in which the company executed ahead of consensus expectations. Its

30

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

positive results were primarily driven by better than consensus expected revenues and earnings, underpinned by strong organic growth and operating margin expansion. The company’s stock held up well in August 2019 in a more volatile market environment given its more defensive nature. At the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to view Bright Horizons Family Solutions favorably, as it is meaningfully larger than its closest competitor, creating a near monopoly in its industry. Furthermore, we believed consistent pricing, strong organic and recurring growth, high barriers to entry and a well-regarded management team make it an attractive business. Finally, in our view, the company was benefiting from demographic tailwinds, such as the increasing number of women working in the U.S., the growth in two parent households that are dual career earners and increasing birth rates for working mothers over the age of 35.

Guardant Health, a new purchase for the Fund during the Reporting Period, is a leader in liquid biopsy and operates in the blood-based cancer screening market. Its shares climbed after the company beat its second quarter earnings estimates and announced a raise to 2019 revenue guidance. In our view, liquid biopsy has the potential to change the paradigm within cancer diagnostics and treatment. Guardant Health already has a blood-based test in the market, Guardant 360, for therapy selection in advanced-stage cancer treatment. The company’s blood-based cancer recurrence monitoring test, LUNAR 1, is in late stages of the pipeline, which should, we believe, provide a considerable boost to the company’s overall value. Guardant Health also announced during the Reporting Period its first large-scale study for early-stage cancer screening, LUNAR 2, which remains the biggest potential market opportunity, in our opinion. We note other potential competitors in the space but expect Guardant Health to remain the market leader.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Among those stocks detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in Agios Pharmaceuticals, Alkermes and Alder Biopharmaceuticals.

Agios Pharmaceuticals’ weak performance can be attributed primarily to the second quarter of 2019. The company engages in the discovery and development of novel investigational medicines to treat cancer and rare genetic diseases. There did not seem to be any stock-specific reasons for its share price decline. Rather, its stock fell along with other health care and biopharmaceutical peers, which broadly experienced weakness. At the end of the Reporting Period, we remained positive on Agios Pharmaceuticals given its significant upcoming pipeline readouts, including three in 2019, and pivotal kidney disease data in 2020. (Pipeline readouts here refers to the release of data from various stages of clinical trials. In the pharmaceutical industry, pipelines are frequently used when describing and evaluating a company’s activities, research and development progress and overall potential for success and growth.) We believed the company had additional compelling pipeline opportunities as well as potential expansion opportunities for its currently approved drugs, which could add upside to its stock.

The stock of biopharmaceutical company Alkermes fell in the second quarter of 2019 when its former president and chief operating officer, Jim Robinson, announced his resignation. During these same months, its stock declined when the company reported quarterly results that showed promising first quarter revenue but below market expectation earnings per share. Following these results, our confidence diminished in the company, and we decided to exit the position and allocate the capital to other companies we felt had more attractive risk/reward prospects.

Alder Biopharmaceuticals is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on migraines. Its stock fell sharply in the fourth quarter of 2018 driven by overall weakness in the biotechnology space. After recovering somewhat, its stock fell again following disappointing earnings releases in February and May 2019 in which earnings per share missed consensus estimates. Despite the volatility experienced by its stock, we remained positive at the end of the Reporting Period on the opportunity set for Alder Biopharmaceuticals. Migraine is a massive market, with approximately three million Americans suffering from the disorder. Even a modest penetration of that market could lead, in our view, to annual revenues of more than $1 billion for the company, which would imply significant upside potential from current levels.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A In addition to the purchase of Guardant Health, already mentioned, we initiated a Fund position in Booz Allen Hamilton Holding. We like the company’s consulting/information technology hybrid business model, which we

31

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

feel enables higher margin projects given the ability to offer greater technical analysis versus competitors. Also, the company has established strong relationships with entities in the defense and intelligence communities, clients that tend to be sources of attractive contracts. The company is also working to market its expertise to the private sector, offering cybersecurity products and services to Fortune 500 companies and advising clients in the health and financial services industries.

We established a Fund position in Teledyne Technologies during the Reporting Period. The company engages in the provision of electronic and communication products for wireless and satellite systems. We are positive on Teledyne Technologies because we feel the company has a strong management team with a demonstrated track record of efficient capital allocation and a long runway. Historically an aerospace and defense company, Teledyne Technologies is now a diversified, highly engineered and technical industrial company, helping it to bridge the gap between being an industrial and technology company.

Conversely, in addition to the sale of Alkermes mentioned earlier, we exited the Fund’s position in web hosting services provider GoDaddy. Its stock slid during the beginning of 2019 following its earnings release in which the company reported results in line with market expectations across virtually all key metrics. Despite the release, its shares declined as investors were disappointed following an extended period of upside surprises. Additionally, the company announced a change to its senior management team later in the Reporting Period. While we continued to believe GoDaddy is a high quality company, we decided to exit the position due to growth and management uncertainties.

We eliminated the Fund’s position in Lazard, a financial advisory and asset management firm serving corporations, governments, institutions and individuals. Its stock underperformed its investment boutique peers during the Reporting Period. Lazard has an attractive health care advisory practice, in our view, but it missed some of the larger deals in the last few years. Further, the company’s asset management segment has seen significant outflows. Taken together, we elected to look elsewhere for what we felt were more compelling risk/reward opportunities, seeking better positioned franchises in the industry.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A In February 2019, Michael DeSantis, vice president and portfolio manager of the Fund, left the firm to pursue another opportunity. Also, Daniel Zimmerman, managing director and portfolio manager of the Fund, left the firm. Effective February 4, 2019, Jessica Katz became a portfolio manager of the Fund. Jessica Katz joined Goldman Sachs Asset Management in 2015 and has 13 years of investment experience. Also, effective February 25, 2019, Steven Barry assumed portfolio management responsibilities on an interim basis while we initiate a talent search for additional senior resources. Previously, Steven Barry had been a portfolio manager for the Small/Mid Cap Growth strategy for more than a decade. Steven Barry also remains the chief investment officer of the Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team and of Fundamental Equity globally, overseeing more than $50 billion in assets under supervision as of December 31, 2018.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s exposure to health care and real estate increased and its allocations to financials and consumer staples decreased relative to the Russell Index. The Fund’s position in cash increased during the Reporting Period.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund had overweighted positions relative to the Russell Index in the information technology and health care sectors. On the same date, the Fund had underweighted positions compared to the Russell Index in industrials, financials, consumer staples and consumer discretionary. The Fund was rather neutrally weighted to the Russell Index in materials, real estate and communication services and had no position at all in utilities and energy at the end of the Reporting Period.

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective of seeking long-term growth of capital by investing, under normal circumstances, in companies that are considered by the Investment Adviser to be positioned for long-term growth.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Strategic Growth Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 2.86%, 2.07%, 3.31%, 2.79%, 3.14%, 3.26%, 2.67% and 3.33%, respectively. These returns compare to the 4.27% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000^® Growth Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A While the Fund generated solid positive absolute returns, it underperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period. Stock selection overall proved effective but was virtually offset by sector allocation as a whole, which detracted from relative performance.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Having an overweighted allocation to energy, which was the weakest sector in the Russell Index by a wide margin during the Reporting Period, dampened the Fund’s relative performance most. Challenging stock selection in financials and consumer discretionary detracted from the Fund’s relative results as well during the Reporting Period. The sectors that contributed most positively to the Fund’s relative performance during the Reporting Period were health care, information technology and real estate, wherein effective stock selection drove results.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Among the stocks detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were apparel and footwear company PVH, crude oil refining company Marathon Petroleum and transportation and logistics company XPO Logistics.

PVH designs and manufactures apparel and footwear through a variety of brand names. Amidst a more challenging environment for retail during the fourth quarter of 2018, PVH reported mixed results in November 2018. While its earnings per share and revenue were higher, its Calvin Klein sales were disappointing for the second consecutive quarter. PVH’s stock slid throughout December 2018 alongside the broader market, which experienced heightened volatility. Subsequently, its share price decline could be attributed to broader macroeconomic trends, such as slowdowns in North American and Chinese retail markets and currency headwinds, rather than to company-specific factors. We viewed these issues as temporary and continued to like PVH at the end of the Reporting Period for what we saw as its stable free cash flow generation, solid balance sheet and strong consumer recognition among its leading brands, Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger. We also believed Calvin Klein’s strategic pivot toward mid-range clothing could help the brand gain share. Additionally, we were positive on the company’s geographic diversity, which may allow for more flexibility and global growth opportunities ahead.

Marathon Petroleum’s stock was weak in the fourth quarter of 2018 along with the equity market as a whole. Marathon Petroleum’s share price then fell again in May 2019 when the company reported quarterly results that missed on earnings

35

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

per share, driven primarily by weakness in refining and retail margins. On the positive side, the company continued to buy back shares and also reported strong operating cash flow and capital expenditures. Its stock fell again in August 2019 despite reporting solid earnings and exceeding market expectations on earnings per share. Even with its mixed earnings and volatile performance, we remained positive on Marathon Petroleum at the end of the Reporting Period and felt its acquisition of Andeavor seemed to be going well and on track to continue to unlock further synergies for the combined company, now the largest U.S. refiner by capacity. Furthermore, we were positive on the outlook for both the industry and the business. We also believed in its management’s ability to achieve synergy targets and maintain its focus on returning capital to shareholders. We believed Marathon Petroleum was a high quality company with a strong balance sheet, stable free cash flow and robust return on equity, and we were positive on its prospects ahead.

While there were no stock-specific reasons for the decline in XPO Logistics’ share price during a volatile October 2018, the company, along with others in the industrials and freight industries, underperformed for the month. In mid-December 2018, a hedge fund issued a report that sent XPO Logistics’ shares tumbling more than 26% in one day. We were not particularly troubled by our initial read-through of the analysis but recognized several aspects that warranted follow up. After assessing various factors, we confirmed our previously held view that XPO Logistics’ business was well aligned with the structural changes in the freight industry, such as outsourcing and labor-saving technology, e-commerce exposure and the implementation of electronic logging devices. The market eventually recognized this as well, and its shares recovered all of the losses prompted by the hedge fund report. However, unrelated to the report, XPO Logistics’ stock tumbled in February 2019 after the company released its fourth quarter 2018 earnings report that revealed results below market estimates on earnings per share, revenue and 2019 guidance. Its management cited a reduction in business from its largest client, expressing it would negatively impact its growth for 2019. These developments led us to exit the Fund’s position in XPO Logistics.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A Among those stocks the Fund benefited most from relative to the Russell Index were positions in Danaher, Ecolab and McDonald’s.

In November 2018, medical equipment company Danaher’s stock was driven less by company-specific events but rather rose along with the health care equipment industry as a whole. Then, in February 2019, Danaher announced an agreement with General Electric (“GE”) to acquire the biopharma business of GE Life Sciences. The market’s reception of the deal was overwhelmingly positive, and Danaher’s shares climbed through the end of the month. We were also highly optimistic about the transaction, which makes Danaher the largest player within bioprocessing and gives the company a multi-year value creation opportunity through potential top-line acceleration and cost savings. GE Life Sciences is a high quality asset, and in our opinion, significantly improves Danaher’s positioning within the biopharma industry. With this in mind, at the end of the Reporting Period, we had renewed confidence that Danaher is a high quality company, led by what we see as an outstanding management team, that generates solid free cash flow and has high barriers to entry in its key business segments.

Ecolab is a global provider of water, hygiene and energy technologies and services to the food, energy, health care, industrial and hospitality markets. Its shares were supported by an earnings release in late July 2019 that featured strong sales growth, with particular bright spots in service and lease sales. At the end of the Reporting Period, we were positive on the continued growth potential of its institutional and energy business segments, which have been the primary drivers behind its growth story. We also believed the company could continue to gain market share. In our view, Ecolab has strong brands and pricing pressure, and we expected pricing actions to drive margin expansion.

Shares of fast-food restaurant giant McDonald’s climbed at the end of 2018 after the company announced positive results, in which its earnings per share and revenue beat market estimates. Its stock then rather steadily climbed through the remainder of the Reporting Period, as McDonald’s continued to execute on many of its strategic initiatives, namely, modernized restaurants, a revamped value menu and a shift toward fresh beef hamburgers. At the end of the Reporting Period, we remained positive on the company given its highly recognizable brand as well as a management team that is, in our view, continually working to boost the customer experience. With what we consider to be McDonald’s strong balance sheet, robust free cash flow and healthy return on equity, we believed its shares were attractively valued at the end of the Reporting Period and potentially poised for continued appreciation.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we initiated a Fund position in Accenture. We feel that, in recent years, Accenture has repositioned itself as a leading information technology implementation company in digital and new age technologies, including cloud software as a service, analytics and security. We also feel the company’s existing client relationships and strong consulting practice have facilitated its early involvement in deals, a key competitive advantage versus its peers. Lastly, we feel the company’s balanced capital allocation to acquisitions and capital returns have enabled the company to invest in growth initiatives.

We established a Fund position in Union Pacific. Union Pacific is one of the most recognized railroad transportation companies in the world, with approximately 32,000 miles of track covering 23 states in the western two-thirds of the U.S. We believe Union Pacific is a high quality company because of its A-rated balance sheet and what we see as its strong free cash flow and diversified business mix relative to its peers. We are also positive on the company’s shareholder friendly management team, which we believe has been prudent in reducing costs and increasing share buybacks. We were also positive at the time of purchase on the benefits the company could reap from tax reform and good economic growth in the U.S.

Conversely, in addition to the sale of XPO Logistics already mentioned, we eliminated the Fund’s position in NVIDIA during the Reporting Period. NVIDIA engages in the design and manufacture of computer graphics, processors, chipsets and related multimedia software. During the Reporting Period, the company reported disappointing earnings, as trade uncertainties and concerns around demand persisted. While we believe NVIDIA is a high quality advanced chip designer, we decided to exit the position in favor of companies we felt had more favorable near-term risk/reward profiles.

We exited the Fund’s position in pharmaceutical company Shire during the Reporting Period. In December 2018, it was announced that Takeda Pharmaceutical shareholders voted to approve the company’s acquisition of Shire. Following the approval of the acquisition and the stock’s strong performance, we decided to sell the position and reallocate the capital elsewhere.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A There were no changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s exposure to consumer staples and financials increased and its allocations to information technology, consumer discretionary and health care decreased relative to the Russell Index.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund had overweighted allocations relative to the Russell Index in energy, materials, consumer staples and communication services and underweighted positions compared to the Russell Index in consumer discretionary and information technology. The Fund was rather neutrally weighted in the health care, industrials, financials and real estate sectors of the Russell Index and had no position at all in utilities at the end of the Reporting Period.

* These returns assume reinvestment of all distributions at NAV and reflect a maximum initial sales charge of 5.50% for Class A Shares and the assumed contingent deferred sales charge for Class C Shares (1% if redeemed within 12 months of purchase). Because Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Average Annual Total Return.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Goldman Sachs Technology Opportunities Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowing for investment purposes (measured at time of purchase) in equity investments in technology companies. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, in companies that are considered by the Investment Adviser to benefit from the proliferation of technology. Although the Fund invests primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, it may invest up to 25% of its total assets measured at the time of purchase in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in countries with emerging markets or economies and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest in privately held companies and companies that only recently began to trade publicly.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Technology Opportunities Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 4.73%, 3.97%, 5.12%, 4.62%, 5.01%, 5.11% and 5.15%, respectively. These returns compare to the -0.72% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the NASDAQ Composite Total Return Index (the “NASDAQ Composite”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund outperformed the NASDAQ Composite on a relative basis during the Reporting Period due primarily to effective stock selection. Sector allocation as a whole also contributed positively to relative performance.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A As both the Fund and the NASDAQ Composite have the majority of their respective assets allocated to the information technology sector, broad equity market sector performance generally does not have a meaningful impact on relative performance. That said, effective stock selection in information technology and real estate contributed positively to the Fund’s relative results. Having an underweight to health care, which was the weakest sector in the NASDAQ Composite during the Reporting Period, also helped. The sectors that detracted most from the Fund’s relative results during the Reporting Period were consumer discretionary and communication services, wherein stock selection proved particularly challenging.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A Among those stocks the Fund benefited most from relative to the NASDAQ Composite were positions in wireless communications and broadcast tower real estate investment trust American Tower, enterprise software solutions company Red Hat and cloud-based services provider ServiceNow.

American Tower consistently reported strong organic earnings during the Reporting Period, driven by the strong performance of total property revenue and other profitability metrics. At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed American Tower may benefit from secular trends in growing data usage, taking advantage of its dominant market share, global expansion and additional investment opportunities to fuel long-term growth. With recurring revenue streams and strong organic leasing growth at an attractive valuation relative to its peers, we maintained our view that American Tower is a high quality and durable growth company.

Shares of Red Hat spiked in late October 2018 after IBM announced an offer to acquire Red Hat in an all cash deal valued at approximately $34 billion. The announcement was received positively by Red Hat shareholders, as the purchase price represented a significant premium to the prior day’s

40

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

closing price. This acquisition was in line with our thesis that the software industry is ripe for consolidation. We were encouraged by this news and decided to realize gains and reallocate the proceeds to what we viewed as other high quality growth companies.

ServiceNow provides cloud-based services to automate enterprise information technology operations. Early in 2019, its shares rallied after the company reported strong earnings, driven by continued sales momentum in its high dollar customer category and successful new product rollouts. Its shares maintained strength through the remainder of the Reporting Period, as its ongoing sales growth and new product rollouts buoyed positive investor sentiment. Overall, at the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to view ServiceNow as a high quality software name with attractive growth and solid margins. Additionally, we remained confident in its management’s ability to thoughtfully invest as it works to meet its levels of growth.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the NASDAQ Composite were positions in PTC, NVIDIA and GoDaddy.

PTC engages in the development of product management software solutions. Its shares came under pressure toward the end of the Reporting Period when the company reported bookings growth below consensus expectations. The miss was received particularly negatively by investors, as it was widely viewed as an execution miss driven by slower than company-expected conversion of existing customers from maintenance to subscription. At the end of the Reporting Period, we felt its management had reset expectations. We also believed the company should benefit from industry growth going forward given its competitive advantage in the production of much of the software that we expect to enable industrial automation and connectivity.

NVIDIA engages in the design and manufacture of computer graphics, processors, chipsets and related multimedia software. During the Reporting Period, the company reported disappointing earnings, as trade uncertainties and concerns around demand persisted. While we believe NVIDIA is a high quality advanced chip designer, we decided to exit the position in favor of companies we felt had more favorable near-term risk/reward profiles.

GoDaddy engages in web hosting services. Its stock slid during the beginning of 2019 following its earnings release in which the company reported results in line with market expectations across virtually all key metrics. Despite the release, its shares declined as investors were disappointed following an extended period of upside surprises. Additionally, the company announced a change to its senior management team later in the Reporting Period. However, at the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to believe GoDaddy’s end markets were rather steady and presented a favorable long-term growth opportunity. Overall, we remained positive on GoDaddy, as we believed it was a high quality growth company that has demonstrated an ability to deliver consistent earnings growth over time. We felt it was a well diversified business led by a strong management team. That said, we were closely monitoring the company’s growth and management uncertainties.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we initiated a Fund position in Accenture. We feel that, in recent years, Accenture has repositioned itself as a leading information technology implementation company in digital and new age technologies, including cloud software as a service, analytics and security. We also feel the company’s existing client relationships and strong consulting practice have facilitated its early involvement in deals, a key competitive advantage versus its peers. Lastly, we feel the company’s balanced capital allocation to acquisitions and capital returns have enabled the company to invest in growth initiatives.

We established a Fund position in PayPal Holdings during the Reporting Period. The company offers products within the back-end payment infrastructure space, which we view as a growing and increasingly critical function. We view PayPal Holdings as a high quality growth business with strong underlying fundamentals and channel growth potential, as seen through its partnerships with growing consumer companies like Uber, MercadoLibre and Facebook.

Conversely, in addition to those sales already mentioned, we eliminated the Fund’s position in Global Payments, a provider of payment technology and software solutions. Following an extended span of strong performance, we decided to realize gains and reallocate the capital to other high quality growth names in the payments space. We felt

41

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

that, as we get deeper in the economic cycle, there may be other names in the industry that could provide high quality characteristics in the event of an economic downturn.

We sold the Fund’s position in MasterCard during the Reporting Period. After a run of strong performance, we felt its risk/reward profile was less compelling than those of other similar companies. We decided to exit the position and reallocate the capital to what we viewed as more compelling ideas.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Effective February 4, 2019, Michael DeSantis, vice president and portfolio manager of the Fund, left the firm to pursue another opportunity. Steven Barry, Sung Cho and Charles “Brook” Dane continue to serve as portfolio managers of the Fund and assumed Michael’s portfolio management responsibilities effective February 4, 2019. Steven Barry also remains the chief investment officer of the Fundamental Equity US Equity team and of Fundamental Equity globally, overseeing more than $50 billion in assets under supervision as of December 31, 2018.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s exposure to consumer discretionary and health care increased relative to the NASDAQ Composite and its relative exposure to information technology decreased. The Fund’s position in cash decreased during the Reporting Period.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund was overweighted relative to the NASDAQ Composite in the information technology and real estate sectors. On the same date, the Fund had underweighted exposure compared to the NASDAQ Composite in health care, consumer discretionary and communication services. The Fund had no exposure to the utilities, materials, energy, industrials, consumer staples or financials sectors at the end of the Reporting Period.

Performance Summary

August 31, 2019

The following graph shows the value as of August 31, 2019, of a $10,000 investment made on September 1, 2009 in Class A Shares at NAV (with the maximum sales charge of 5.50%). For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the NASDAQ Composite Total Return Index, is shown. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown and in their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. The returns set forth below represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted below. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns.

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY GROWTH FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2019

1. ORGANIZATION

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

Fund	Share Classes Offered	Diversified/ Non-diversified
Capital Growth, Growth Opportunities, Small/Mid Cap Growth and Strategic Growth	A, C, Institutional, Service, Investor, P, R and R6	Diversified
Blue Chip Concentrated Growth and Flexible Cap	A, C, Institutional, Investor, P, R and R6	Diversified
Technology Opportunities	A, C, Institutional, Service, Investor, P and R6	Diversified

Class A Shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50%. Class C Shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00%, which is imposed on redemptions made within 12 months of purchase. Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares are not subject to a sales charge.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

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

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments. Distributions received from the Funds’ investments in U.S. real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain and/or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Funds as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT.

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

134

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY GROWTH FUNDS

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

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

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

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

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

F.  Commission Recapture — GSAM, on behalf of certain Funds, may direct portfolio trades, subject to seeking best execution, to various brokers who have agreed to rebate a portion of the commissions generated. Such rebates are made directly to a Fund as cash payments and are included in net realized gain (loss) from investments on the Statements of Operations.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

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

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

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

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

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

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities may be valued at the closing bid price for long positions and at the closing ask price for short positions. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2.

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

Money Market Funds — Investments in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Underlying Fund”) are valued at the NAV per share of the Institutional Share class on the day of valuation. These investments are generally classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For information regarding the Underlying Fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Fund’s shareholder report.

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

C. Fair Value Hierarchy — The following is a summary of the Funds’ investments classified in the fair value hierarchy as of August 31, 2019:

6. SECURITIES LENDING

The Funds may lend their securities through a securities lending agent, the Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”), to certain qualified borrowers. In accordance with the Funds’ securities lending procedures, the Funds receive cash collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Funds, at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded, and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may experience delay in the recovery of their securities or incur a loss should the borrower of the securities breach its agreement with the Funds or become insolvent at a time when the collateral is insufficient to cover the cost of repurchasing securities on loan. Dividend income received from securities on loan may not be subject to withholding taxes and therefore withholding taxes paid may differ from the amounts listed in the Statements of Operations. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and as such 1) the remaining contractual maturities of the outstanding securities lending transactions are considered to be overnight and continuous and 2) the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

The Capital Growth, Growth Opportunities, Small/Mid Cap Growth and Strategic Growth Funds invest the cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Government Money Market Fund, an affiliated series of the

143

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY GROWTH FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

August 31, 2019

6. SECURITIES LENDING (continued)

Goldman Sachs Trust. The Government Money Market Fund is registered under the Act as an open end investment company, is subject to Rule 2a-7 under the Act, and is managed by GSAM, for which GSAM may receive a management fee of up to 0.16% on an annualized basis of the average daily net assets of the Government Money Market Fund.

In the event of a default by a borrower with respect to any loan, BNYM may exercise any and all remedies provided under the applicable borrower agreement to make the Funds whole. These remedies include purchasing replacement securities by applying the collateral held from the defaulting broker against the purchase cost of the replacement securities. If BNYM is unable to purchase replacement securities, BNYM will indemnify the Funds by paying the Funds an amount equal to the market value of the securities loaned minus the value of cash collateral received from the borrower for the loan, subject to an exclusion for any shortfalls resulting from a loss of value in such cash collateral due to reinvestment risk. The Funds’ master netting agreements with certain borrowers provide the right, in the event of a default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. However, in the event of a default by a borrower, a resolution authority could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of set-off that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Funds’ loaned securities were all subject to enforceable Securities Lending Agreements and the value of the collateral was at least equal to the value of the cash received. The amounts of the Funds’ overnight and continuous agreements, which represent the gross amounts of recognized liabilities for securities lending transactions outstanding as of August 31, 2019, are disclosed as “Payable upon return of securities loaned” on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, where applicable. The Funds did not have securities on loan as of August 31, 2019.

Each of the Funds and BNYM received compensation relating to the lending of the Funds’ securities. The amounts earned, if any, by the Funds for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, are reported under Investment Income on the Statements of Operations.

The following table provides information about the Funds’ investments in the Government Money Market Fund for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019:

7. TAX INFORMATION (continued)

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales, differences to the tax treatment of underlying fund investments, and partnership investments.

The Growth Opportunities Fund reclassed $22,091,392 from distributable earnings to paid-in capital and the Technology Opportunities Fund reclassed $2,426,101 from paid-in capital to distributable earnings. In order to present certain components of the Funds’ capital accounts on a tax-basis, certain reclassifications have been recorded to the Funds’ accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the net asset value of the Funds and result primarily from net operating losses and redemptions utilized as distributions.

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

8. OTHER RISKS

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

Foreign and Emerging Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the United States. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation, less public information and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which a Fund invest. The imposition of exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscations of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the United States or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which a Fund has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time.

Foreign Custody Risk — If a Fund invests in foreign securities, the Fund may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Fund’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over, or independent evaluation of, their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on a Fund’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Industry Concentration Risk — The Technology Opportunities Fund invests primarily in equity investments in high-quality technology, media, or service companies that adopt or use technology to improve their cost structure, revenue opportunities or competitive advantage. Because of its focus on technology, media and service companies, the Technology Opportunities Fund is subject to greater risk of loss as a result of adverse economic, business or other developments than if its investments were diversified across different industry sectors. The Technology Opportunities Fund may also invest in a relatively few number of issuers. Thus, the Technology Opportunities Fund may be more susceptible to adverse developments affecting any single issuer held in its portfolio and may be more susceptible to greater losses because of these developments.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, a Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Fund.

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

8. OTHER RISKS (continued)

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

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

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, a Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

9. INDEMNIFICATIONS

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

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

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

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 August 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent 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.

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY GROWTH FUNDS

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended August 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R or Class R6 Shares of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments (with respect to Class A Shares), contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions (with respect to Class C Shares), and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (with respect to Class A, Class C, Service and Class R Shares); and other Fund expenses. The example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares of the Funds 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 from March 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019, which represents a period of 184 days of a 365 day year.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ 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 Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. 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.

+ Hypothetical expenses are based on each Fund’s actual annualized net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses.

* Expenses for each share class are calculated using each Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended August 31, 2019. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY GROWTH FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Goldman Sachs Blue Chip Fund, Goldman Sachs Capital Growth Fund, Goldman Sachs Concentrated Growth Fund, Goldman Sachs Flexible Cap Fund, Goldman Sachs Growth Opportunities Fund, Goldman Sachs Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund, Goldman Sachs Strategic Growth Fund, and Goldman Sachs Technology Opportunities Fund (the “Funds”) are investment portfolios of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Funds at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Funds.

The Management Agreement was most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2020 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 11-12, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”).

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

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, including information about:

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

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

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

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

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

(b) information on the investment performance of the Fund, including comparisons to the performance of similar mutual funds, as provided by a third-party mutual fund data provider engaged as part of the contract review process (the “Outside Data Provider”), a benchmark performance index, and, (in the case of the Concentrated Growth Fund and Strategic Growth Fund), a composite of accounts with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Adviser; and information on general investment outlooks in the markets in which the Fund invests;

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

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

(e) fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

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

(ii) the Fund’s expense trends over time; and

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

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

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

159

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY GROWTH FUNDS

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

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

(i) whether the Fund’s existing management fee schedule adequately addressed any economies of scale;

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

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) information regarding commissions paid by the Fund and broker oversight, an update on the Investment Adviser’s soft dollars practices, other information regarding portfolio trading, and how the Investment Adviser carries out its duty to seek best execution;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Fund to its peers using rankings and ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2018,

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY GROWTH FUNDS

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

and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser using the peer group identified by the Outside Data Provider as of March 31, 2019. The information on each Fund’s investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ending on the applicable dates, to the extent that each Fund had been in existence for those periods. The Trustees also reviewed each Fund’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Funds over time, and reviewed the investment performance of each Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions. The Trustees also received information comparing the Concentrated Growth Fund’s and Strategic Growth Fund’s performance to that of composites of accounts with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Adviser.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Funds’ risk profiles, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

The Trustees noted that the Blue Chip Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the one-year period, the third quartile for the three-year period, and the fourth quartile for the five-year period, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-year period and underperformed for the three- and five-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They also considered that in October 2017 the Blue Chip Fund had been repositioned from the Dynamic U.S. Equity Fund, which involved changes to the Fund’s investment strategy. The Trustees also observed that the Blue Chip Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2018. The Trustees observed that the Capital Growth Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods and in the third quartile for the one-year period, and had underperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-year period and outperformed for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They also observed that the Concentrated Growth Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the one-year period and in the third quartile for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods, and had underperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019. The Trustees also noted that the Capital Growth Fund and Concentrated Growth Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2018. The Trustees observed that the Flexible Cap Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the ten-year period, in the third quartile for the three- and five-year periods, and the fourth quartile for the one-year period, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods and underperformed for the one-year period ended March 31, 2019. The Trustees considered that in August 2017 the Flexible Cap Fund had been repositioned from the Flexible Cap Growth Fund, which involved changes to the Fund’s investment strategy, benchmark, and portfolio management. The Trustees also noted that the Growth Opportunities Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the ten-year period and in the third quartile for the one-, three-, and five-year periods, and had underperformed the Fund’s benchmark for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They also noted that the Growth Opportunities Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2018. The Trustees noted that the Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the one-, three-, and ten-year periods and in the third quartile for the five-year period, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-year period and underperformed for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They also considered that the Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2018 and the first half of 2019. They observed that the Strategic Growth Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group and had underperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They observed that the Technology Opportunities Fund had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the one- and three-year periods and in the third quartile for the five- and ten-year periods, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-, three-, and five- year periods and underperformed for the ten-year period ended March 31, 2019. They noted that the Technology Opportunities Fund had certain significant differences from the Fund’s benchmark index that caused it to be an imperfect basis for comparison. The Trustees also noted that the Strategic Growth Fund and Technology Opportunities Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2018 and the first half of 2019.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

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

In particular, the Trustees reviewed analyses prepared by the Outside Data Provider regarding the expense rankings of the Funds. The analyses provided a comparison of each Fund’s management fee and breakpoints to those of a relevant peer group and

161

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

category universe; an expense analysis which compared each Fund’s overall net and gross expenses to a peer group and a category universe; and data comparing each Fund’s net expenses to the peer and category medians. The analyses also compared each Fund’s other expenses and fee waivers/reimbursements to those of the peer group and category medians. The Trustees concluded that the comparisons provided by the Outside Data Provider were useful in evaluating the reasonableness of the management fees and total expenses paid by the Funds.

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations. The Trustees also noted that certain changes were being made to existing fee waiver arrangements of the Growth Opportunities Fund, Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund, and Technology Opportunities Fund that would have the effect of increasing expenses of Class A, Class C, Investor, and Class R Shares of the Growth Opportunities Fund and Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund, and decreasing expenses of Class A, Class C, and Investor Shares of the Technology Opportunities Fund, with such changes taking effect in connection with the Funds’ next annual registration statement update. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Funds differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

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

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for each Fund was provided for 2018 and 2017, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Funds. The Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreement for each of the Funds at the following annual percentage rates of the average daily net assets of the Funds:

Average Daily Net Assets	Blue Chip Fund			Capital Growth Fund			Concentrated Growth Fund			Flexible Cap Fund
First $1 billion		0.55	%		0.71	%		0.76	%		0.55	%
Next $1 billion		0.50			0.64			0.68			0.50
Next $3 billion		0.47			0.61			0.65			0.47
Next $3 billion		0.46			0.61			0.64			0.46
Over $8 billion		0.45			0.61			0.62			0.45

Average Daily Net Assets	Growth Opportunities Fund			Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund			Strategic Growth Fund			Technology Opportunities Fund
First $1 billion		0.92	%		0.85	%		0.71	%		0.94	%
Next $1 billion		0.92			0.85			0.64			0.85
Next $3 billion		0.83			0.77			0.61			0.80
Next $3 billion		0.79			0.73			0.59			0.79
Over $8 billion		0.77			0.71			0.58			0.77

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

The Trustees noted that the breakpoints were designed to share potential economies of scale, if any, with the Funds and their shareholders as assets under management reach those asset levels. The Trustees considered the amounts of assets in the Funds; the Funds’ recent share purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and their realized profits; information comparing fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer groups; and the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to waive a portion of its management fee for the Growth Opportunities Fund and limit certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels, as well as Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC’s (“Goldman Sachs”) undertaking to waive a portion of the transfer agency fees paid by the Blue Chip Fund’s, Concentrated Growth Fund’s, Growth Opportunities Fund’s, Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund’s, and Technology Opportunities Fund’s Class A, Class C, Investor, and Class R Shares, as applicable. Upon reviewing these matters at the Annual Meeting, the Trustees concluded that the fee breakpoints represented a means of assuring that benefits of scalability, if any, would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels. They also noted that the Investment Adviser had passed along savings to shareholders of the Growth Opportunities Fund and Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund, which had asset levels above at least the first breakpoint during the prior fiscal year.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs; (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities and futures transactions on behalf of the Funds; (c) research received by the Investment Adviser from broker-dealers in exchange for executing certain transactions on behalf of the Funds; (d) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Funds with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (e) fees earned by the Investment Adviser for managing the fund in which the Funds’ securities lending cash collateral is invested; (f) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Funds on behalf of its other clients; (g) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (h) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Fund Distributor; (i) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Funds; and (j) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Funds’ third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Funds and Their Shareholders

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

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by each of the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser’s costs and each Fund’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Adviser’s continued management likely would benefit each Fund and its shareholders and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to each Fund until June 30, 2020.

What Differentiates the Goldman Sachs Value Strategies’ Investment Process?

Goldman Sachs’ Fundamental Equity Value Strategies Team (the “Team”) believes that all successful investing should thoughtfully weigh two important attributes of a stock: price and prospects. Through independent fundamental research, the Team seeks to identify and invest in quality businesses that are selling at compelling valuations.

At the heart of our value investment philosophy is a belief in the rigorous analysis of business fundamentals. Our approach may include:

∎ Meetings with management teams and on-site company visits

∎ Industry-specific, proprietary financial and valuation models

∎ Assessment of management quality

∎ Analysis of each company’s competitive position and industry dynamics

∎ Interviews with competitors, suppliers and customers

We seek to invest in companies when we believe:

∎ Market uncertainty exists

∎ Their economic value is not recognized by the market

We seek to buy companies with quality characteristics. For us, this means companies that have:

∎ Sustainable operating earnings, or competitive advantage

∎ Excellent stewardship of capital

∎ Capability to earn above their cost of capital

∎ Strong or improving balance sheets and cash flow

Value portfolios that strive to offer:

∎ Capital appreciation potential as each company’s true value is recognized in the marketplace

∎ Investment style consistency

MARKET REVIEW

Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity Value Funds

Market Review

Overall, U.S. equities gained ground amidst heightened volatility during the 12 months ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”). The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (the “S&P 500 Index”) ended the Reporting Period with a return of 2.92%. The Russell 3000^® Index generated a return of 1.31%.

U.S. equities inched higher as the Reporting Period began in September 2018, driven by robust U.S. macroeconomic data relative to other developed markets and to emerging markets. Against a backdrop of solid economic growth, near-target inflation and healthy monthly job gains, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) raised interest rates by 25 basis points, in line with market expectations. (A basis point is 1/100^th of a percentage point.) The successful outcome of North American Free Trade Agreement negotiations to its new incarnation as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement near month end was also supportive of market sentiment. U.S. equities then fell in October 2018, as investor sentiment rapidly deteriorated on escalating trade and political uncertainty and in a delayed response to an earlier sell-off in global rates. The correction resulted in tighter U.S. financial conditions, which had been resilient to Fed interest rate hikes earlier in the calendar year. U.S. equities saw a reprieve in November 2018 on more accommodative comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell and encouraging progress in U.S.-China trade talks. However, the recovery was short-lived. U.S. equities subsequently plunged in December 2018 on renewed investor fears sparked by the arrest of a Chinese technology executive, a partial U.S. Federal government shutdown, the U.S. President’s criticism of Fed Chair Powell and reignited corporate earnings growth concerns. The Fed raised interest rates by another 25 basis points.

After a volatile end to 2018, a U.S. equity market rally to begin 2019 marked the best first quarter performance for the S&P 500 Index since 1998. Fed commentary provided a supportive background for U.S. equities, as Fed Chair Powell reiterated a “patient” approach to monetary policy that included a pause in interest rate hikes and a nearing end to its balance sheet runoff. (The Fed unwinds, or shrinks, its balance sheet by selling securities on its balance sheet and/or not reinvesting maturing securities.) The U.S. unemployment rate remained well below trend at 3.8% in February with a steady increase in wages of 3.4% year over year. Housing data continued to show strength in the first calendar quarter, with new home sales reaching 667,000 in February 2019, bringing the three-month average up to 630,000. Strength in housing data could be partially attributed to a steep decline in mortgage rates, resulting from a more cautious Fed. The University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index was a point of significant strength in the U.S. economy, steadily climbing in each month of the first quarter of 2019 and eventually reaching 98.4 in March, its highest level in six months. Economic growth concerns, however, failed to completely abate, as fourth quarter Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) was revised down 0.4% in March to 2.2%. While the revision was further evidence of a slowing U.S. economy, the result was largely priced in by equity markets and thus had a limited effect on stock prices outside of the financials sector, which tends to be more interest rate sensitive.

Following a sharp rally in the first quarter of 2019, the S&P 500 Index posted a somewhat more moderate gain in the second calendar quarter to close its best first half since 1997. Trade tensions between the U.S. and China dominated headlines and broadly added noise to the markets. (In a broad analytical context, noise refers to information or activity that confuses or misrepresents genuine underlying trends.) In April 2019, there was a widely-held optimistic outlook for a possible trade deal, but such optimism faded in May when the U.S. President threatened to raise then-current tariffs and impose new duties on $300 billion of additional Chinese imports. Sanctions were temporarily placed on a Chinese telecommunications giant until they were lifted in June 2019, when any additional tariffs or compromise were postponed. Also during the second quarter of 2019, the U.S. equity markets kept a close eye on the Fed. After steadily raising interest rates since 2015 to a range of 2.25% to 2.50%, the Fed alluded to a more accommodative approach. The U.S. equity market consensus had largely priced in at least one interest rate cut by the end of 2019, if not sooner. Economic indicators were mixed during the second calendar quarter, with consumer sentiment remaining elevated, while nonfarm payrolls and manufacturing indices across the board fell short of market expectations.

After an exceptionally strong first half of 2019, the S&P 500 Index delivered more muted, but still positive, returns in July 2019. The Fed lowered interest rates by 25 basis points, marking the first interest rate cut since 2008. Fed Chair Powell’s tone was dovish throughout the month, though more hawkish sentiment at the announcement of the cut raised uncertainty surrounding future easing of monetary policy. (Dovish language tends to suggest lower interest rates; opposite of hawkish.) More than 60% of S&P 500 Index companies had reported earnings by the end of July 2019. Key themes for the corporate earnings reporting season revolved around a healthy consumer backdrop, softer industrial results and global economic uncertainty. The U.S. President announced a

MARKET REVIEW

one-year exemption of 110 Chinese products from the 25% tariffs that were added on July 6, 2018. However, he later threatened to introduce new tariffs on $325 billion of Chinese goods despite the truce that was agreed upon at the G20 Summit at the end of June. (The G20 (or Group of Twenty) is an international forum for the governments and central bank governors from 19 countries and the European Union. It was founded in 1999 with the aim to discuss policy pertaining to the promotion of international financial stability.)

The S&P 500 Index fell in August 2019. The month’s headlines were primarily dominated by trade tensions, as the U.S. President announced an intention to impose additional tariffs on remaining Chinese goods not yet subject to tariffs, causing increased market volatility. Economic data was largely mixed, with manufacturing data and consumer confidence showing signs of weakness but domestic demand holding steady in the context of a strong labor market and rising wages.

For the Reporting Period overall, utilities, real estate and consumer staples, traditionally considered more defensive sectors, were the best performing sectors in the S&P 500 Index. The weakest performing sectors in the S&P 500 Index were energy, financials and materials, each considered a more economically-sensitive cyclical sector.

Within the U.S. equity market, there was broad divergence in performance, with large-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000^® Index, posting single-digit positive absolute returns, mid-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell Midcap^® Index, eking out a modest positive absolute return of less than 1%, and small-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000^® Index, posting double-digit negative absolute returns. From a style perspective, growth-oriented stocks significantly outpaced value-oriented stocks across the capitalization spectrum. (All as measured by the FTSE Russell indices.)

Looking Ahead

At the end of the Reporting Period, we maintained our view of U.S. equities as the most favorable asset class, offering what we saw as reasonable valuations relative to solid macroeconomic and corporate fundamentals. After a significant repricing of assets and market expectations in the fourth quarter of 2018, the U.S. equity market rebounded with the strongest first half since 1997 despite geopolitical tensions and trade relations oscillating between positive and negative developments. Equities were buoyed by declining 10-year U.S. Treasury yields, as investors expected potential interest rate cuts, a dramatic shift from the Fed’s actions one year prior. While we were encouraged by the strong start to 2019, we did expect to see more signals of an aging cycle moving forward, such as the dip seen in August 2019, which may be challenging to navigate and require more selectivity by investors. Yet without clearer indications of deteriorating fundamentals, we thought it was still too early to position the Funds for a downturn in global economic growth or corporate earnings.

For the remainder of 2019, we expect choppier conditions. Within this more volatile backdrop, we believe a thorough understanding of both market and company-specific variables may be crucial to navigating the evolving landscape. That said, our investment philosophy will not change based on short-term fluctuations in markets. We plan to maintain our focus on what we consider to be high quality companies with strong market positions and experienced management teams. In our opinion, emphasizing these durable businesses can potentially set up the Funds to perform well amidst heightened volatility.

Regardless of market direction, our fundamental, bottom-up stock selection continues to drive our process, rather than headlines or sentiment. We maintain high conviction in the companies the Funds own and believe they have the potential to outperform relative to the broader market regardless of economic growth conditions. We continue to focus on undervalued companies that we believe have comparatively greater control of their own destiny, such as innovators with differentiated products, companies with low cost structures or companies that have been investing in their own businesses and may be poised to gain market share. We maintain our discipline in identifying companies with what we believe to be strong or improving balance sheets, led by quality management teams and trading at discounted valuations. We remain focused on the long-term performance of the Funds.

As always, deep research resources, a forward-looking investment process and truly actively managed portfolios are keys, in our view, to both preserving capital and outperforming the market over the long term.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Goldman Sachs Equity Income Fund

Portfolio Composition

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity investments that the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team considers to have favorable prospects for capital appreciation and/or dividend-paying ability. Although the Fund will invest primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, including preferred and convertible securities, it may invest up to 25% of its Net Assets in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in emerging countries and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its Net Assets in fixed income securities, such as government, corporate and bank debt obligations, that offer the potential to further the Fund’s investment objective of long-term capital appreciation and growth of income.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Equity Income Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 4.53%, 3.82%, 4.94%, 4.40%, 4.82%, 4.92%, 4.29% and 4.95%, respectively. These returns compare to the 0.62% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000^® Value Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund outperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period due primarily to effective stock selection. Sector allocation as a whole also contributed positively to the Fund’s relative performance, albeit more modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Contributing positively to the Fund’s relative results was effective stock selection in the industrials, energy and utilities sectors. The only two sectors that detracted from the Fund’s relative results during the Reporting Period were consumer staples and communication services, wherein stock selection proved challenging.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A The Fund benefited most relative to the Russell Index from positions in American Water Works, Northrup Grumman and Crown Castle International.

American Water Works is a regulated water-related infrastructure company. During the Reporting Period, its stock appreciated significantly, driven by broader strength in water utility companies and by earnings strength. At the end of the Reporting Period, we remained favorable on the expected long-term needs of water infrastructure improvements and on what we see as the company’s solid dividend growth and constructive regulatory mechanisms, potentially allowing for timely capital expenditure recovery.

Shares of aerospace and defense company Northrup Grumman advanced substantially during the Reporting Period, boosted by revenue growth acceleration and the company winning a large defense contract. At the end of the Reporting Period, we remained confident in Northrop Grumman’s revenue growth prospects and disciplined, long-term approach.

Crown Castle International is a U.S. provider of wireless communications infrastructure. Its shares experienced a double-digit gain during the Reporting Period, as the company benefited from secular data consumption trends in the tower space. At the end of the Reporting Period, we remained positive on the company’s ability to grow its dividend over the long term and were encouraged by growth in its fiber/small cell business.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in Bristol-Myers Squibb, Royal Dutch Shell and DuPont de Nemours.

Shares of pharmaceutical company Bristol-Myers Squibb declined in early January 2019 when it was announced the company would acquire Celgene for a significant premium. We exited the position in favor of higher conviction positions elsewhere.

Integrated energy company Royal Dutch Shell outperformed the broader energy sector during the Reporting Period, but it underperformed the Russell Index, as its stock price declined along with a decrease in oil prices. At the end of the Reporting Period, we remained positive on the company’s large disposal program with what we see as a solid pipeline of new projects that could be value accretive to cash flows. Furthermore, the company announced a $25 billion share buyback program, which combined with dividends, resulted in a significant capital return yield to its investors.

During the Reporting Period, diversified specialty products company DuPont de Nemours went through multiple changes, first spinning off Dow, Inc. and then later spinning off its agricultural business named Corteva. The remaining company, now called DuPont de Nemours, experienced weakness at the beginning of May 2019 after announcing earnings in line with market estimates on most metrics but weaker than market expected on forward guidance. Despite the weakness, we remained positive on DuPont de Nemours at the end of the Reporting Period, given what we consider to be its structural growth profile, margin expansion opportunities and optionality. (In business, optionality is the value of additional optional investment opportunities available only after having made an initial investment.)

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we initiated a Fund position in multinational consumer goods company Procter & Gamble. We are confident in the company’s growing market share and what we view as its improved innovation pipeline, solid management team and good performance and execution across all six of its business segments.

We established a Fund position in Walt Disney during the Reporting Period. We purchased shares of the media and entertainment giant due to its strategic position in the industry and potential synergies with its acquisition of Twenty-First Century Fox.

Conversely, in addition to the sale already mentioned, we exited the Fund’s position in AT&T, one of the largest telecommunications companies in the U.S. Following several large, secularly challenged deals, we sold the position in favor of companies we believed to be growing at a faster rate and with better capital allocation profiles.

We sold the Fund’s position in Abbott Laboratories. Its stock appreciated significantly during the Reporting Period. After such strong returns, we felt it prudent to sell the position and allocate the proceeds to other companies we believed to have more attractive valuations and opportunities moving forward.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Effective September 30, 2018, Sean Gallagher retired from Goldman Sachs and no longer serves as a portfolio manager for the Fund. Effective July 17, 2019, Dan Lochner no longer serves as a portfolio manager for the Fund. Charles “Brook” Dane continues to serve as portfolio manager for the Fund. By design, all investment decisions for the Fund are performed within a co-lead or team structure, with multiple subject matter experts. This strategic decision making has been a cornerstone of our approach and helps to ensure continuity in the Fund.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s allocations compared to the Russell Index in consumer discretionary, energy, financials and information technology increased. The Fund’s exposure to consumer staples and health care decreased compared to the Russell Index.

5

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund had overweight positions relative to the Russell Index in the information technology and energy sectors. On the same date, the Fund had underweight positions compared to the Russell Index in financials and consumer discretionary and was rather neutrally weighted to the Russell Index in communication services, consumer staples, health care, industrials, materials, real estate and utilities.

GOLDMAN SACHS EQUITY INCOME FUND

Performance Summary

August 31, 2019

The following graph shows the value, as of August 31, 2019, of a $10,000 investment made on September 1, 2009 in Class A Shares (with the maximum sales charge of 5.5%). For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000^® Value Index (with dividends reinvested), is shown. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown and in their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. The returns set forth below represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted below. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Goldman Sachs Focused Value Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at time of purchase) in a portfolio of equity investments, including common stocks, preferred stocks and other securities and instruments having equity characteristics. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, in approximately 20-40 companies that are considered value opportunities, which the Investment Adviser defines as companies with identifiable competitive advantages whose intrinsic value is not reflected in the stock price. The Fund may invest in securities of companies of any capitalization. Although the Fund will invest primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, it may invest up to 20% of its total assets in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in countries with emerging markets or economies (“emerging countries”) and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may invest in fixed income securities, such as government, corporate and bank debt obligations.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Focused Value Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 2.10%, 1.27%, 2.47%, 2.26%, 2.44%, 1.91% and 2.52%, respectively. These returns compare to the 0.62% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000^® Value Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund outperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis due primarily to effective stock selection overall. Sector allocation as a whole detracted from the Fund’s performance relative to the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, albeit modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Contributing positively to the Fund’s relative results was effective stock selection in the financials, information technology and industrials sectors. Having an underweight to financials, which underperformed the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, and having a neutral position to information technology, which outperformed the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, also added value. The sector that detracted most from the Fund’s relative results during the Reporting Period was materials, wherein stock selection proved challenging. Having underweights to consumer discretionary and real estate, which each outperformed the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, also hurt.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A The Fund benefited most relative to the Russell Index from positions in retailing giant Walmart, pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly and aerospace and defense company Northrop Grumman.

Walmart was an outstanding performer during the Reporting Period, as solid management execution resulted in better than consensus expected earnings throughout. At the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to like Walmart due to its successful omni-channel and technology investments, price leadership and ability to capture market share.

Eli Lilly’s stock climbed through the fourth quarter of 2018 after the company reported solid quarterly results and better than consensus expected 2019 guidance, featuring significant improvements in revenue growth and long-term sales growth. Its shares also climbed through the first quarter of 2019, boosted by improving market sentiment on the prospects of its business. Given its strong performance, we exited the position in favor of what we believed to be better risk/reward opportunities.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Shares of Northrup Grumman, a new purchase for the Fund during the Reporting Period, advanced substantially during the Reporting Period, boosted by revenue growth acceleration and the company winning a large defense contract. At the end of the Reporting Period, we remained confident in Northrop Grumman’s revenue growth prospects and disciplined, long-term approach.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in diversified specialty products company DuPont de Nemours, crude oil refining company Marathon Petroleum and retail brand owner PVH.

During the Reporting Period, diversified specialty products company DuPont de Nemours went through multiple changes, first spinning off Dow, Inc. and then later spinning off its agricultural business named Corteva. The remaining company, now called DuPont de Nemours, experienced weakness at the beginning of May 2019 after announcing earnings in line with market estimates on most metrics but weaker than market expected on forward guidance. Despite the weakness, we remained positive on DuPont de Nemours at the end of the Reporting Period, given what we consider to be its structural growth profile, margin expansion opportunities and optionality. (In business, optionality is the value of additional optional investment opportunities available only after having made an initial investment.)

Marathon Petroleum’s stock was weak in the fourth quarter of 2018 along with the equity market as a whole. Marathon Petroleum’s share price then fell again in May 2019 when the company reported quarterly results that missed on earnings per share, driven primarily by weakness in refining and retail margins. On the positive side, the company continued to buy back shares and also reported strong operating cash flow and capital expenditures. Its stock fell again in August 2019 despite reporting solid earnings and exceeding market expectations on earnings per share. Even with its mixed earnings and volatile performance, we remained positive on Marathon Petroleum at the end of the Reporting Period and felt its acquisition of Andeavor seemed to be going well and on track to continue to unlock further synergies for the combined company, now the largest U.S. refiner by capacity. Furthermore, we were positive on the outlook for both the industry and the business. We also believed in its management’s ability to achieve synergy targets and maintain its focus on returning capital to shareholders. We believed Marathon Petroleum was a high quality company with a strong balance sheet, stable free cash flow and robust return on equity, and we were positive on its prospects ahead.

PVH, a new purchase for the Fund during the Reporting Period, designs and manufactures apparel and footwear through a variety of brand names. Amidst a more challenging environment for retail during the fourth quarter of 2018, PVH reported mixed results in November 2018. While its earnings per share and revenue were higher, its Calvin Klein sales were disappointing for the second consecutive quarter. PVH’s stock slid throughout December 2018 alongside the broader market, which experienced heightened volatility. Subsequently, its share price decline could be attributed to broader macroeconomic trends, such as slowdowns in North American and Chinese retail markets and currency headwinds, rather than to company-specific factors. Given these issues, we exited the position in favor of what we believed to be better risk/reward opportunities elsewhere.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, in addition to the purchases already mentioned, we initiated a Fund position in Honeywell International, a large industrial conglomerate. We purchased the company because of what we see as its effective capital allocation, which has positioned it well, in our view, for structural growth and cyclical inflection.

We established a Fund position in health care products company Johnson & Johnson. Its shares had plunged in December 2018 after it was reported its executives knew for decades that its baby powder sometimes tested positive for asbestos. In response, its management dismissed the allegations and said the product is safe and asbestos-free. Given that the stock had its worst day in 16 years, we felt investors had overreacted to the accusations and viewed the sell-off as a buying opportunity. In our view, Johnson & Johnson has a healthy financial profile and diversified suite of growing businesses. It has approximately $20 billion in cash and securities and generated approximately $16 billion in operating cash flow in the first three quarters of 2018—more than twice dividends paid. Furthermore, the company beat the market’s quarterly earnings estimates during the Reporting Period, with psoriasis treatments and cancer drug sales driving the success, while signature baby products and

10

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

consumer goods showed signs of improvement. Overall, we view Johnson & Johnson as a high quality health care name and decided to take advantage of what we saw as its attractive valuation on weakness.

Conversely, in addition to those sales mentioned earlier, we eliminated the Fund’s position in Berkshire Hathaway, a multinational conglomerate holding company. While we still like many aspects of the company, including what we consider to be solid free cash flows, defensive nature and optionality with excess cash, we decided to exit the position in favor of higher conviction names.

We exited the Fund’s position in aerospace and defense company Raytheon. Following the release of weaker than market expected earnings in late April 2019, we sold the position in favor of what we saw as better risk/reward opportunities elsewhere.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Effective September 30, 2018, Sean Gallagher retired from Goldman Sachs and no longer serves as a portfolio manager for the Fund. Charles “Brook” Dane continues to serve as portfolio manager for the Fund. By design, all investment decisions for the Fund are performed within a co-lead or team structure, with multiple subject matter experts. This strategic decision making has been a cornerstone of our approach and helps to ensure continuity in the Fund.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s allocations compared to the Russell Index in health care, industrials and real estate increased. The Fund’s exposure to the consumer discretionary, information technology and utilities sectors decreased compared to the Russell Index.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund was overweight in industrials, health care and materials relative to the Russell Index. On the same date, the Fund was underweight in consumer discretionary, utilities, financials and energy and was rather neutrally weighted to the Russell Index in communication services, consumer staples, information technology and real estate.

Goldman Sachs Large Cap Value Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in a diversified portfolio of equity investments in large-cap issuers with public stock market capitalizations within the range of the market capitalization of companies constituting the Russell 1000^® Value Index at the time of investment. The Fund seeks its investment objective of long-term capital appreciation by investing in value opportunities that the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team defines as companies with identifiable competitive advantages whose intrinsic value is not reflected in the stock price. Although the Fund will invest primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, including preferred and convertible securities, it may invest in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in countries with emerging markets or economies (“emerging countries”) and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest in fixed income securities, such as government, corporate and bank debt obligations.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Large Cap Value Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 0.38%, -0.28%, 0.69%, 0.20%, 0.64%, 0.74%, 0.12% and 0.73%, respectively. These returns compare to the 0.62% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000^® Value Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Several share classes of the Fund outperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis due primarily to effective stock selection overall. Sector allocation as a whole also added value to the Fund’s performance relative to the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, albeit modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Contributing most positively to the Fund’s performance relative to the Russell Index was effective stock selection in information technology, utilities and real estate. Only partially offsetting these positive contributors were health care, industrials and communication services, which detracted as stock selection in each proved challenging.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A The Fund benefited most relative to the Russell Index from positions in enterprise software solutions company Red Hat, regulated utility Xcel Energy and regulated utility CMS Energy.

Shares of Red Hat, a new purchase for the Fund during the Reporting Period, spiked in late October 2018 after IBM announced an offer to acquire Red Hat in an all cash deal valued at approximately $34 billion. The announcement was received positively by Red Hat shareholders, as the purchase price represented a significant premium to the prior day’s closing price. This acquisition was in line with our thesis that the software industry is ripe for consolidation. We were encouraged by this news and decided to realize gains and reallocate the proceeds to what we viewed as other high quality growth companies.

Xcel Energy is a fully regulated electric utility located across the central U.S. Xcel Energy benefited during the Reporting Period from strength in the utilities sector, as market volatility increased and led investors to favor more traditionally defensive sectors. At the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to view Xcel Energy positively, as it has, in our opinion, above-average growth prospects and was trading at what we believe to be an attractive valuation.

CMS Energy, a fully regulated utility located in Michigan, similarly benefited from strength in the utilities sector broadly, as market volatility increased, driving investors

14

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

toward traditionally more defensive equity sectors. At the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to like CMS Energy, as, in our view, it is a high quality utility located in a friendly regulatory environment.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in Marathon Petroleum, a crude oil refining company; PVH, a retail brand owner; and Delphi Technologies, a developer, designer and manufacturer of integrated powertrain technologies.

Marathon Petroleum’s stock was weak in the fourth quarter of 2018 along with the equity market as a whole. Marathon Petroleum’s share price then fell again in May 2019 when the company reported quarterly results that missed on earnings per share, driven primarily by weakness in refining and retail margins. On the positive side, the company continued to buy back shares and also reported strong operating cash flow and capital expenditures. Its stock fell again in August 2019 despite reporting solid earnings and exceeding market expectations on earnings per share. Even with its mixed earnings and volatile performance, we remained positive on Marathon Petroleum at the end of the Reporting Period and felt its acquisition of Andeavor seemed to be going well and on track to continue to unlock further synergies for the combined company, now the largest U.S. refiner by capacity. Furthermore, we were positive on the outlook for both the industry and the business. We also believed in its management’s ability to achieve synergy targets and maintain its focus on returning capital to shareholders. We believed Marathon Petroleum was a high quality company with a strong balance sheet, stable free cash flow and robust return on equity, and we were positive on its prospects ahead.

PVH, a new purchase for the Fund during the Reporting Period, designs and manufactures apparel and footwear through a variety of brand names. Amidst a more challenging environment for retail during the fourth quarter of 2018, PVH reported mixed results in November 2018. While its earnings per share and revenue were higher, its Calvin Klein sales were disappointing for the second consecutive quarter. PVH’s stock slid throughout December 2018 alongside the broader market, which experienced heightened volatility. Subsequently, its share price decline could be attributed to broader macroeconomic trends, such as slowdowns in North American and Chinese retail markets and currency headwinds, rather than to company-specific factors. We viewed these issues as temporary and continued to like PVH at the end of the Reporting Period for what we saw as its stable free cash flow generation, solid balance sheet and strong consumer recognition among its leading brands, Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger. We also believed Calvin Klein’s strategic pivot toward mid-range clothing could help the brand gain share. Additionally, we were positive on the company’s geographic diversity, which may allow for more flexibility and global growth opportunities ahead.

In October 2018, the stock of Delphi Technologies declined after the company announced the departure of its Chief Executive Officer and revised its outlook downward for the full year 2018. In its outlook, Delphi Technologies forecasted revenue for the full year to be consistent with the prior year level, compared to the previous guidance, which had projected low single-digit revenue growth. Upon the news, multiple research analysts downgraded the stock, sending its shares lower. Then, in November 2018, Delphi Technologies reported weak quarterly results. Its quarterly results and guidance were in line with preannouncements, but its 2019 preliminary guidance was significantly below consensus expectations, as industry volumes continued to face headwinds, specifically in China, where there was negative product mix. We decided to sell the position in January 2019 given what we viewed as the company’s substantial operational and structural challenges, exacerbated by uncertainty related to its management change and potential macro headwinds.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, in addition to those purchases already mentioned, we established a Fund position in Walt Disney during the Reporting Period. We purchased shares of the media and entertainment giant due to its strategic position in the industry and potential synergies with its acquisition of Twenty-First Century Fox.

We re-initiated a Fund position in fast-food restaurant company McDonald’s. Its stock had lagged the overall market during the third quarter of 2018, which we believe presented an attractive opportunity to add back what we view as a best-in-class franchise to the Fund’s portfolio after selling it in the Fund’s prior fiscal year. We are positive on many of the strategic initiatives McDonald’s has been rolling

15

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

out, including modernized restaurants, a revamped value menu and fresh beef hamburgers, which we believe can help boost its stock. In our view, McDonald’s has a strong balance sheet with robust free cash flow and good return on equity. We also believe it was attractively valued at the time of purchase and poised for growth and market share gains.

Conversely, in addition to those sales already mentioned, we exited the Fund’s position in Medtronic, a medical technology company, during the Reporting Period. Due to the company’s slower growth relative to its peers, we decided to sell the position in favor of what we believed to be faster growing and better risk/reward opportunities elsewhere.

We eliminated the Fund’s position in United Technologies, an aerospace manufacturing and services company. Following a positive third quarter 2018 earnings report, our investment thesis on the company was invalidated in late November 2018 upon the announcement the company would split into three companies controlling the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (“HVAC”), Elevator and Aerospace and Defense businesses separately. We had less confidence in the company’s ability to perform well, as we were unsure of the potential strategic advantages of such a change. We exited the position in favor of what we saw as better risk/reward opportunities elsewhere.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Effective September 30, 2018, Sean Gallagher retired from Goldman Sachs and no longer serves as a portfolio manager for the Fund. Charles “Brook” Dane continues to serve as portfolio manager for the Fund. By design, all investment decisions for the Fund are performed within a co-lead or team structure, with multiple subject matter experts. This strategic decision making has been a cornerstone of our approach and helps to ensure continuity in the Fund.

We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s allocations compared to the Russell Index in communication services, consumer staples, financials and real estate increased. The Fund’s exposure to consumer discretionary, energy and information technology decreased compared to the Russell Index.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund had an overweight position relative to the Russell Index in the communication services sector. On the same date, the Fund had an underweight position compared to the Russell Index in consumer discretionary and had rather neutral allocations relative to the Russell Index in consumer staples, energy, financials, health care, industrials, information technology, materials, real estate and utilities.

Goldman Sachs Mid Cap Value Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) (“Net Assets”) in a diversified portfolio of equity investments in mid-cap issuers with public stock market capitalizations within the range of the market capitalization of companies constituting the Russell Midcap^® Value Index at the time of investment. The Fund seeks its investment objective of long-term capital appreciation by investing in value opportunities that the Investment Adviser defines as companies with identifiable competitive advantages whose intrinsic value is not reflected in the stock price. Although the Fund will invest primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, it may invest up to 25% of its Net Assets in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in emerging countries and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest in the aggregate up to 20% of its Net Assets in companies with public stock market capitalizations outside the range of companies constituting the Russell Midcap^® Value Index at the time of investment and in fixed income securities, such as government, corporate and bank debt obligations.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Fundamental Equity U.S. Equity Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Mid Cap Value Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R, and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of 3.39%, 2.58%, 3.78%, 3.25%, 3.63%, 3.80%, 3.10% and 3.79%, respectively. These returns compare to the -3.13% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell Midcap^® Value Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund outperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis due primarily to effective stock selection overall. Sector allocation as a whole also added value to the Fund’s performance relative to the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, albeit modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Contributing most positively to the Fund’s performance relative to the Russell Index was effective stock selection in materials, information technology and real estate. Only partially offsetting these positive contributors was industrials, the only sector to detract from relative results during the Reporting Period. The Fund had an underweighted allocation to industrials, which posted a negative absolute return but outperformed the Russell Index during the Reporting Period.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A The Fund benefited most relative to the Russell Index from positions in metal packaging company Ball, payment services provider Fidelity National Information Services and real estate investment trust Equity LifeStyle Properties.

Ball produces metal packaging goods for beverages, household products and aerospace technologies. Its stock performed strongly through most of the Reporting Period, driven by strong earnings reports in November 2018 and February and May 2019 in which the company beat market estimates on earnings per share while also benefitting from robust growth in global beverage can volumes. The company grew its market share and also reiterated guidance for free cash flow and earnings, which the market viewed positively. At the end of the Reporting Period, we viewed Ball as a highly diversified company that has growing market share in the defense industry, as a leader in the fragmented aerosol space and as one of the more sustainable companies in beverage can production. Additionally, we saw positive upside potential moving forward given the wide range of commercial opportunities to leverage its global leadership position along with the potential for multi-year margin improvement.

Shares of Fidelity National Information Services performed well during the Reporting Period. During the Reporting

19

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Period, the company acquired Worldpay, which boosted its share price as both companies reported solid earnings. Overall, at the end of the Reporting Period, we believed Fidelity National Information Services was well positioned to take advantage of secular shifts toward acceleration of payments innovation globally and outsourcing of technology infrastructures from financial institutions.

Equity LifeStyle Properties is a real estate investment trust that manages and operates high quality home resort communities, including rental homes and recreational vehicle campgrounds. Better than consensus earnings and raised guidance throughout the Reporting Period were its primary share performance drivers. We believe the company has demonstrated financial strength and a favorable risk profile given a low-levered balance sheet and a leading supply of permits. These attributes, along with its early announcement of forward guidance, helped instill investor confidence in the stock amidst a more tumultuous trading environment.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in retail brand owner PVH, crude oil refining company Marathon Petroleum and oil and gas exploration and production company WPX Energy.

PVH designs and manufactures apparel and footwear through a variety of brand names. Amidst a more challenging environment for retail during the fourth quarter of 2018, PVH reported mixed results in November 2018. While its earnings per share and revenue were higher, its Calvin Klein sales were disappointing for the second consecutive quarter. PVH’s stock slid throughout December 2018 alongside the broader market, which experienced heightened volatility. Subsequently, its share price decline could be attributed to broader macroeconomic trends, such as slowdowns in North American and Chinese retail markets and currency headwinds, rather than to company-specific factors. We viewed these issues as temporary and continued to like PVH at the end of the Reporting Period for what we saw as its stable free cash flow generation, solid balance sheet and strong consumer recognition among its leading brands, Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger. We also believed Calvin Klein’s strategic pivot toward mid-range clothing could help the brand gain share. Additionally, we were positive on the company’s geographic diversity, which may allow for more flexibility and global growth opportunities ahead.

Marathon Petroleum’s stock was weak in the fourth quarter of 2018 along with the equity market as a whole. Marathon Petroleum’s share price then fell again in May 2019 when the company reported quarterly results that missed on earnings per share, driven primarily by weakness in refining and retail margins. On the positive side, the company continued to buy back shares and also reported strong operating cash flow and capital expenditures. Its stock fell again in August 2019 despite reporting solid earnings and exceeding market expectations on earnings per share. Even with its mixed earnings and volatile performance, we remained positive on Marathon Petroleum at the end of the Reporting Period and felt its acquisition of Andeavor seemed to be going well and on track to continue to unlock further synergies for the combined company, now the largest U.S. refiner by capacity. Furthermore, we were positive on the outlook for both the industry and the business. We also believed in its management’s ability to achieve synergy targets and maintain its focus on returning capital to shareholders. We believed Marathon Petroleum was a high quality company with a strong balance sheet, stable free cash flow and robust return on equity, and we were positive on its prospects ahead.

WPX Energy saw its share price decline significantly during the Reporting Period, as a selloff in oil prices due to soft global demand and increased inventories weighed on its performance. While we continued to like WPX Energy, as it has significant cash flows relative to its peers, we opted to sell the position in favor of what we felt were better risk/reward opportunities elsewhere.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we initiated a Fund position in AvalonBay Communities, a developer and owner of multi-family apartment communities in the U.S. We purchased the company given our confidence in what we believe is its supportive management team, robust development pipeline and strong balance sheet.

We established a Fund position in US Foods Holding, a food service distributor. We purchased its stock after inflationary pressures began to subside, having a positive effect on its margins and allowing for more reasonable volume expectations, in our opinion. Given what we believe are its

20

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

accelerating sales volumes, improving earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization growth, more effective operations and solid organic growth, we have confidence in the company moving forward.

Conversely, in addition to those sales already mentioned, we eliminated the Fund’s position in Equity Residential, a multifamily real estate investment trust that manages apartment complexes in the U.S. We had purchased the company because of what we considered to be its high quality portfolio of assets, strong balance sheet and valuation, the latter of which was well below the value of its assets. However, its stock price significantly appreciated in 2018, making its valuation appear less attractive. For this reason, we exited the position in favor of what we felt were better risk/reward opportunities elsewhere.

We exited the Fund’s position in Signature Bank, a bank operating in the New York City area, during the Reporting Period. The Fund owned the stock because we liked the company for its entrepreneurial and differentiated business model. However, given its significant exposure to New York multifamily real estate, we decided to sell the position when New York issued new rent regulations that could create volatility in its share price and threaten its business model in the near term, in our opinion.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Effective September 30, 2018, Sean Gallagher retired from Goldman Sachs and no longer serves as a portfolio manager for the Fund. Adam Agress and Sung Cho continue to serve as portfolio managers for the Fund. By design, all investment decisions for the Fund are performed within a co-lead or team structure, with multiple subject matter experts. This strategic decision making has been a cornerstone of our approach and helps to ensure continuity in the Fund.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s allocations compared to the Russell Index in consumer staples and information technology increased. The Fund’s exposure to the financials and industrials sectors decreased compared to the Russell Index.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund had overweight positions relative to the Russell Index in information technology and materials and underweight positions compared to the Russell Index in industrials and financials. The Fund was rather neutrally weighted to the Russell Index in communication services, consumer discretionary, consumer staples, energy, health care, real estate and utilities at the end of the Reporting Period.

Performance Summary

August 31, 2019

The following graph shows the value, as of August 31, 2019, of a $1,000,000 investment made on September 1, 2009 in Institutional Shares at NAV. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell Midcap^® Value Index (with dividends reinvested), is shown. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown and in their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. The returns set forth below represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted below. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Goldman Sachs Small Cap Value Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) (“Net Assets”) in a diversified portfolio of equity investments in small-cap issuers with public stock market capitalizations within the range of the market capitalization of companies constituting the Russell 2000^® Value Index at the time of investment. Under normal circumstances, the Fund’s investment horizon for ownership of stocks will be two to three years. The Fund seeks its investment objective of long-term capital appreciation by investing in value opportunities that the Investment Adviser defines as companies with identifiable competitive advantages whose intrinsic value is not reflected in the stock price. Although the Fund will invest primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, it may invest up to 25% of its Net Assets in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in emerging countries and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest in the aggregate up to 20% of its Net Assets in companies with public stock market capitalizations outside the range of companies constituting the Russell 2000^® Value Index at the time of investment and in fixed income securities, such as government, corporate and bank debt obligations.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Small Cap Value Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Small Cap Value Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of -11.16%, -11.83%, -10.81%, -11.26%, -10.94%, -10.80%, -11.37% and -10.81%, respectively. These returns compare to the -14.89% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000^® Value Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A While the Fund posted negative absolute returns, it outperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period due primarily to effective stock selection. Sector allocation as a whole detracted from the Fund’s relative performance, albeit only modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Effective stock selection in the consumer discretionary, industrials and health care sectors contributed most positively to the Fund’s performance relative to the Russell Index. Only partially offsetting these positive contributors was having underweighted allocations to and weaker stock selection in utilities and real estate, which detracted from the Fund’s relative results.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A The Fund benefited most relative to the Russell Index from positions in PS Business Parks, Kinsale Capital Group and Lattice Semiconductor.

PS Business Parks is an industrial real estate investment trust that operates multi-tenant industrial, flex and office spaces. During the Reporting Period, the company beat earnings expectations for each quarter, indicating growing funds from operations and earnings per share. At the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to view PS Business Parks’ management team favorably, as we believe it has maximized the value of assets by buying when prices are low and has been able to operate with cost discipline.

Kinsale Capital Group, a specialty insurance group focused on excess and surplus lines, saw its share price advance significantly during the Reporting Period. A majority of its stock’s performance was driven by a positive first quarter 2019 earnings announcement, bolstered by top-line growth in nearly every line of its business and by favorable reserve development. At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed Kinsale Capital Group’s low cost, technology-enhanced underwriting model, combined with an improving pricing environment for excess and surplus lines, should continue to support profitable growth for the company.

Lattice Semiconductor is a company that produces programmable logic devices used in circuits of mobile

24

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

phones, telecommunications and Internet-of-Things infrastructure. (The Internet-of-Things is the network of devices such as vehicles and home appliances that contain electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and connectivity that allows these things to connect, interact and exchange data.) During the Reporting Period, the company’s shares enjoyed a triple-digit gain, rallying following the announcement of fourth quarter 2018 revenues and earnings, which established credibility under its new Chief Executive Officer. At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed Lattice Semiconductor’s experienced executive team could potentially expand margins through the optimization of sales, manufacturing and marketing. However, given its span of strong performance, we opted to lock in gains and reallocate the proceeds elsewhere.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in the energy sector—WPX Energy, Callon Petroleum and Golar LNG.

WPX Energy, an oil and gas exploration and production company located in the Delaware and Williston Basins, saw its share price decline significantly during the Reporting Period, as a selloff in oil prices due to soft global demand and increased inventories weighed on its performance. At the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to like WPX Energy, as it has significant cash flows relative to its peers.

Callon Petroleum is an oil and gas company in the Permian Basin. Its stock similarly sold off during the Reporting Period due to lower oil prices, a factor that tends to punish smaller exploration companies in an outsized manner. Despite what we believe will be short-term volatility, we feel Callon Petroleum could yield stronger operation performance over time and deliver top-tier growth.

Golar LNG is a liquefied natural gas carrier. Its weakness during the Reporting Period was primarily driven by softer liquefied natural gas shipping rates in the spot market during the first few months of 2019. At the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to like Golar LNG as one of what we believe to be the best ways to gain exposure to secular growth within the liquefied natural gas market. We further believed the company’s free cash flow may well be supported as contracted revenue from floating liquefied natural gas facilities and power assets come online.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we initiated a Fund position in KBR, an engineering, procurement and construction company that was formerly a subsidiary of Halliburton. We like KBR’s business mix with a greater revenue share coming from governmental operations, which tends to be more contractual with less tail risk. (Tail risk is a form of portfolio risk that arises when the possibility that an investment will move more than three standard deviations from the mean is greater than what is shown by a normal distribution. Tail risks include events that have a small probability of occurring and occur at both ends of a normal distribution curve.) We believe the company has potential upside with liquefied natural gas contracts and an improving balance sheet as well as a Chief Executive Officer moving away from riskier lump-sum deals. (A lump-sum deal or contract is a contract with a single lump-sum price for all of the works, and the contractor is responsible for completing the project within the agreed fixed cost set forth in the contract. If the contractor completes the project under the fixed total cost, then the contractor makes additional profits from the project. The lump-sum contract is normally used in the construction industry to reduce contract administration costs.)

We established a Fund position in Lumentum Holdings, a semiconductor company that manufactures optical networking and commercial lasers for telecommunication and datacom markets. We believe we purchased the shares at an attractive valuation, as most semiconductor companies were affected by noise surrounding the ban on selling to a Chinese hardware conglomerate. (In a broad analytical context, noise refers to information or activity that confuses or misrepresents genuine underlying trends.) Since details of the ban have been modified, we believe Lumentum Holdings’ stock has a favorable environment in which to potentially perform well.

Conversely, in addition to those sales already mentioned, we sold the Fund’s position in Oasis Petroleum, an exploration and production company based in the Bakken Shale formation. Originally, we believed the company benefited from high oil prices and exposure to the Bakken Shale.

25

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Given the decline in oil prices during the Reporting Period and new drilling technology that has made the Bakken Shale more competitive with the Permian Basin with less inefficiencies to capitalize on, we exited the position in favor of what we considered better risk/reward opportunities.

We eliminated the Fund’s position in South Jersey Industries, a gas utility company based in Folsom, New Jersey. Following two quarters of disappointing guidance reductions — announced in October 2018 and February 2019 — we lost confidence in its management’s abilities and sold the position.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A There were no changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s allocations compared to the Russell Index in consumer staples and information technology increased, and its allocation compared to the Russell Index in utilities decreased.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund was underweight compared to the Russell Index in utilities and was rather neutrally weighted to the remaining sectors in the Russell Index.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Goldman Sachs Small/Mid Cap Value Fund

Portfolio Composition

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at time of purchase) in a diversified portfolio of equity investments in small- and mid-cap issuers with public stock market capitalizations within the range of the market capitalization of companies constituting the Russell 2000^® Value Index and the Russell Midcap Value Index, respectively, at the time of investment. As of September 30, 2018, the capitalization range of the companies in these indexes was between $75 million and $37.1 billion. Under normal circumstances, the Fund’s investment horizon for ownership of stocks will be two to three years. Although the Fund will invest primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, it may also invest in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in emerging countries and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may invest in companies with public stock market capitalizations outside the range of companies constituting the Russell 2000^® Value Index and the Russell Midcap Value Index at the time of investment and in fixed income securities, such as government, corporate and bank debt obligations.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Small Cap Value Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Small/Mid Cap Value Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of -5.42%, -6.07%, -5.00%, -5.19%, -5.05%, -5.65% and -5.06%, respectively. These returns compare to the -9.97% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2500^® Value Index (with dividends reinvested) (the “Russell Index”), during the same period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A While the Fund posted negative absolute returns, it outperformed the Russell Index on a relative basis during the Reporting Period due primarily to effective stock selection. Sector allocation as a whole detracted from the Fund’s relative performance, albeit only modestly.

Q Which equity market sectors most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Effective stock selection in the consumer discretionary, energy and information technology sectors contributed most positively to the Fund’s performance relative to the Russell Index. Only partially offsetting these positive contributors was challenging stock section in the financials sector, which detracted. Having an underweighted allocation to utilities, the best performing sector in the Russell Index during the Reporting Period, hurt as well.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks?

A The Fund benefited most relative to the Russell Index from positions in Equity LifeStyle Properties, Live Nation Entertainment and W.R. Berkley.

Equity LifeStyle Properties is a real estate investment trust that manages and operates high quality home resort communities, including rental homes and recreational vehicle campgrounds. Better than consensus earnings and raised guidance throughout the Reporting Period were its primary share performance drivers. We believe the company has demonstrated financial strength and a favorable risk profile given a low-levered balance sheet and a leading supply of permits. These attributes, along with its early announcement of forward guidance, helped instill investor confidence in the stock amidst a more tumultuous trading environment.

Live Nation Entertainment is a company that engages in the production and marketing of live concerts. Its stock appreciated on a foundation of positive earnings results, which highlighted organic growth, increased revenue per existing customer spend, and technology integration to improve digital ticketing. (Customer spend is the total sales revenue made to date, divided by the total number of customers to date.) At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed the company could continue to grow its business through an expanded footprint and could de-lever its balance sheet through cost reduction.

29

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

W.R. Berkley, an insurance holding company, reported positive earnings during the Reporting Period, indicating improving pricing power. Overall, we believe the environment was favorable for insurers, which have experienced top-line growth in a growing economy given that premiums generally increase in line with payrolls.

Q Which stocks detracted significantly from the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A Detracting most from the Fund’s results relative to the Russell Index were positions in XPO Logistics, WPX Energy and Apergy.

XPO Logistics is a transportation and logistics company. While there were no stock-specific reasons for the decline in XPO Logistics’ share price during a volatile October 2018, the company, along with others in the industrials and freight industries, underperformed for the month. In mid-December 2018, a hedge fund issued a report that sent XPO Logistics’ shares tumbling more than 26% in one day. We were not particularly troubled by our initial read-through of the analysis but recognized several aspects that warranted follow up. After assessing various factors, we confirmed our previously held view that XPO Logistics’ business was well aligned with the structural changes in the freight industry, such as outsourcing and labor-saving technology, e-commerce exposure and the implementation of electronic logging devices. The market eventually recognized this as well, and its shares recovered all of the losses prompted by the hedge fund report. However, unrelated to the report, XPO Logistics’ stock tumbled in February 2019 after the company released its fourth quarter 2018 earnings report that revealed results below market estimates on earnings per share, revenue and 2019 guidance. Its management cited a reduction in business from its largest client, expressing it would negatively impact its growth for 2019. These developments led us to exit the Fund’s position in XPO Logistics.

WPX Energy, an oil and gas exploration and production company located in the Delaware and Williston Basins, saw its share price decline significantly during the Reporting Period, as a selloff in oil prices due to soft global demand and increased inventories weighed on its performance. At the end of the Reporting Period, we continued to like WPX Energy, as it has significant cash flows relative to its peers.

Apergy is an oil services spinoff from Dover. Its stock, like that of WPX Energy, was affected during the Reporting Period by declining oil prices. Despite what we believe may well be short-term noise, we believed, at the end of the Reporting Period, Apergy was well positioned for long-term growth and sustainably high free cash flow. (In a broad analytical context, noise refers to information or activity that confuses or misrepresents genuine underlying trends.)

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we did not use derivatives as part of an active management strategy.

Q Did the Fund make any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we initiated a Fund position in Brown & Brown, a national insurance agency and brokerage firm with a history of what we see as attractive profit margins and free cash flow conversion. While the company is headquartered and operates in Florida, which continues to experience above-average residential and commercial growth relative to the rest of the U.S., Brown & Brown has a track record of making thoughtful acquisitions, in our view, that have diversified its revenue sources and contributed to its growth. In our opinion, the company should also benefit from a firming in property and casualty insurance rates that may follow from the higher level of catastrophes during the Reporting Period, including storms and wildfires.

We established a Fund position in Crown Holdings, a specialty packaging producer of metal cans, aerosol containers and closures. As sustainability becomes a consideration of consumers and end-clients alike, there has been an increasing demand for aluminum containers, in lieu of plastics. We believe Crown Holdings, as a dominant producer of aluminum cans, could benefit from this secular shift.

Conversely, in addition to the sale mentioned earlier, we sold the Fund’s position in HollyFrontier, an independent domestic petroleum refiner. We had increasingly become more constructive on the U.S. refinery environment given a greater spread, or differential, between domestic input prices and global market prices for oil. As global oil prices were expected to remain elevated, we believed this favored domestic refiners whose input costs were relatively cheap and thus such conditions could potentially lead to expanded margins. However, as oil prices instead deteriorated, we exited the position.

We exited the Fund’s position in Everest Re Group, a holding company that engages in the provision of reinsurance

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

and insurance services. While we believe the company is a high quality reinsurer that has continued to diversify and grow its U.S.-based insurance platform, the high level of catastrophes that occurred during the Reporting Period led us to reevaluate and reduce the Fund’s overall portfolio positioning in the reinsurance sector.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A There were no changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, we focus on picking stocks rather than on making industry or sector bets. We seek to outpace the benchmark index by overweighting stocks that we expect to outperform and underweighting those that we think may lag. Consequently, changes in its sector weights are generally the direct result of individual stock selection or of stock appreciation or depreciation. That said, during the Reporting Period, the Fund’s allocations compared to the Russell Index in consumer discretionary, consumer staples, industrials and materials increased, and its allocations compared to the Russell Index in energy, financials and real estate decreased.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of August 2019?

A At the end of August 2019, the Fund was overweight in the industrials and health care sectors relative to the Russell Index. On the same date, the Fund had underweight positions compared to the Russell Index in communication services, financials, utilities and real estate and was rather neutrally weighted to the Russell Index in consumer discretionary, consumer staples, energy, information technology and materials.

²  The Fund is actively managed and, as such, its composition may differ over time. Consequently, the Fund’s overall sector allocations may differ from the percentages contained in the graph above. The graph categorizes investments using the Global Industry Classification Standard (“GICS”); however, the sector classifications used by the portfolio management team may differ from GICS. The percentage shown for each investment category reflects the value of investments in that category as a percentage of market value (excluding investments in the securities lending reinvestment vehicle, if any). The graph depicts the Fund’s investments but may not represent the Fund’s market exposure due to the exclusion of certain derivatives, if any, as listed in the Additional Investment Information section of the Schedule of Investments.

GOLDMAN SACHS SMALL/MID CAP VALUE FUND

Performance Summary

August 31, 2019

The following graph shows the value, as of August 31, 2019, of a $1,000,000 investment made on January 31, 2014 (commencement of operations) in Institutional Shares at NAV. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2500^® Value Index (with dividends reinvested), is shown. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown and in their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. The returns set forth below represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted below. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns.

Small/Mid Cap Value Fund’s Lifetime Performance

Performance of a $1,000,000 Investment, including any applicable sales charges, with distributions reinvested, from January 31, 2014 through August 31, 2019.

Average Annual Total Return through August 31, 2019*	One Year	Five Years	Since Inception
Class A (Commenced January 31, 2014)
Excluding sales charges	-5.42%	4.60%	5.92%
Including sales charges	-10.62%	-7.00%	4.85%
Class C (Commenced January 31, 2014)
Excluding contingent deferred sales charges	-6.07%	3.85%	5.17%
Including contingent deferred sales charges	3.43%	3.85%	5.17%
Institutional (Commenced January 31, 2014)	-5.00%	5.06%	6.39%
Investor (Commenced January 31, 2014)	-5.19%	4.86%	6.19%
Class P (Commenced April 17, 2018)	-5.05%	N/A	-1.12%
Class R (Commenced January 31, 2014)	-5.65%	4.36%	5.68%
Class R6 (Commenced July 31, 2015)	-5.06%	N/A	5.51%

* These returns assume reinvestment of all distributions at NAV and reflect a maximum initial sales charge of 5.50% for Class A Shares and the assumed contingent deferred sales charge for Class C Shares (1% if redeemed within 12 months of purchase). Because Institutional, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Average Annual Total Return.

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY VALUE FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2019

1. ORGANIZATION

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

Fund	Share Classes Offered	Diversified/ Non-diversified
Focused Value	A, C, Institutional, Investor, P, R and R6	Non-diversified
Equity Income, Large Cap Value, Mid Cap Value, Small Cap Value	A, C, Institutional, Service, Investor, P, R and R6	Diversified
Small/Mid Cap Value	A, C, Institutional, Investor, P, R and R6	Diversified

Class A Shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50%. Class C Shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00%, which is imposed on redemptions made within 12 months of purchase. Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares are not subject to a sales charge.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

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

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income, and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments. Distributions received from the Funds’ investments in U.S. real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain and/or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Funds as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT.

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

D.  Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, each Fund is not

104

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY VALUE FUNDS

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid according to the following schedule:

Fund	Income Distributions Declared/Paid	Capital Gains Distributions Declared/Paid
Equity Income	Quarterly	Annually
Focused Value, Large Cap Value, Mid Cap Value, Small Cap Value and Small/Mid Cap Value	Annually	Annually

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

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

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

F.  Commission Recapture — GSAM, on behalf of certain Funds, may direct portfolio trades, subject to seeking best execution, to various brokers who have agreed to rebate a portion of the commissions generated. Such rebates are made directly to a Fund as cash payments and are included in net realized gain (loss) from investments on the Statements of Operations.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

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

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

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

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

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

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

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities may be valued at the closing bid price for long positions and at the closing ask price for short positions. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2.

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

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

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

The Funds invest in Institutional Shares of Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Government Money Market Fund”) which is an affiliated Underlying Fund. GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Funds in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to the affiliated Underlying Fund in which the Funds invest, except those management fees it earns from the Funds’ investments of cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Government Money Market Fund. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the management fee waived by GSAM for each Fund was as follows:

Fund	Management Fee Waived
Equity Income	$	1,231
Focused Value		43
Large Cap Value		4,718
Mid Cap Value		8,497
Small Cap Value		85,673
Small/Mid Cap Value		2,762

B.  Distribution and/or Service(12b-1) Plans — The Trust, on behalf of Class A and Class R Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted Distribution and Service Plans subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution and Service Plans, Goldman Sachs, which serves as distributor (the “Distributor”), is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services and personal and account maintenance services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A or Class R Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of Class C Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Distribution Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution Plan, Goldman Sachs as Distributor is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of Service Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act to allow Service Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing personal and account

109

maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan provides for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Service Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

	Distribution and/or Service Plan Rates
	Class A*			Class C			Class R*			Service
Distribution and/or Service Plan		0.25	%		0.75	%		0.50	%		0.25	%

* With respect to Class A and Class R Shares, the Distributor at its discretion may use compensation for distribution services paid under the Distribution and Service Plans to compensate service organizations for personal and account maintenance services and expenses as long as such total compensation does not exceed the maximum cap on “service fees” imposed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

C.  Distribution Agreement — Goldman Sachs, as Distributor of the shares of the Funds pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, may retain a portion of the Class A Shares’ front end sales charge and Class C Shares’ CDSC. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, Goldman Sachs retained the following amounts:

	Front End Sales Charge		Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
Fund	Class A		Class C
Equity Income	$	15,778	$	185
Large Cap Value		3,305		45
Mid Cap Value		13,592		39
Small Cap Value		2,919		22
Small/Mid Cap Value		1,044		—

D.  Service and Shareholder Administration Plans — The Trust, on behalf of each applicable Fund, has adopted Service Plans to allow Class C Shares and Shareholder Administration Plans to allow Service Shares, respectively, to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing varying levels of personal and account maintenance or shareholder administration services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service and Shareholder Administration Plans each provide for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C and Service Shares of the Funds, respectively.

E.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Funds for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates as follows: 0.17% of the average daily net assets of Class A, Class C, Investor and Class R Shares; 0.03% of the average daily net assets of Class P and Class R6 Shares; and 0.04% of the average daily net assets of Institutional and Service Shares. Prior to July 1, 2019, such fee was 0.18% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, Class C, Investor and Class R Shares.

Goldman Sachs has agreed to waive a portion of its transfer agency fee equal to 0.07% as an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class C, Investor and Class R Shares of the Large Cap Value Fund. This arrangement will remain in effect through at least December 28, 2019, and prior to such date, the Goldman Sachs may not terminate the arrangement without the approval of the Board of Trustees.

Effective December 28, 2018, Goldman Sachs has agreed to waive a portion of its transfer agency fee equal to 0.04% as an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class C, Investor and Class R Shares of the Equity Income Fund and Focused Value Fund. This arrangement will remain in effect through at least December 28, 2019, and prior to such date, the Goldman Sachs may not terminate the arrangement without the approval of the Board of Trustees.

F.  Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Funds (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, service fees and shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Funds are not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. The Other Expense limitations as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets for Equity Income, Focused Value, Large Cap Value, Small Cap Value and Small/Mid Cap Value Funds is 0.004% and for Mid Cap Value Fund is 0.104%. These Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least December 28, 2019, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees. In addition, the Funds have entered into certain offset arrangements with the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Funds’ expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

Goldman Sachs may voluntarily waive a portion of any payments under a Fund’s Distribution and Service Plan, Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan, and Transfer Agency Agreement, and these waivers are in addition to what is stipulated in any contractual fee waiver arrangements (as applicable). These temporary waivers may be modified or terminated at any time at the option of Goldman Sachs without shareholder approval.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, these expense reductions, including any fee waivers and Other Expense reimbursements, were as follows:

Fund	Management Fee Waiver		Transfer Agency Fee Waiver/ Credits		Other Expense Reimbursements		Total Expense Reductions
Equity Income	$	1,231	$	89,171	$	446,204	$	536,606
Focused Value		43		39		338,461		338,543
Large Cap Value		4,718		87,674		495,579		587,971
Mid Cap Value		8,497		2,300		—		10,797
Small Cap Value		85,673		3,351		1,148,436		1,237,460
Small/Mid Cap Value		2,762		23		392,532		395,317

G.  Line of Credit Facility — As of August 31, 2019, the Funds participated in a $580,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and certain registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Funds based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the Funds did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 30, 2019 the facility was $770,000,000.

H.  Other Transactions with Affiliates — For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, Goldman Sachs earned $200, $4,316, $5,719, $5,759 and $247 in brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions, including futures transactions executed with Goldman Sachs as the Futures Commission Merchant, on behalf of the Focused Value, Large Cap Value, Mid Cap Value, Small Cap Value and Small/Mid Cap Value Funds, respectively.

Small/Mid Cap Value		86,031,568		86,789,463

6. SECURITIES LENDING

The Funds may lend their securities through a securities lending agent, the Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”), to certain qualified borrowers. In accordance with the Funds’ securities lending procedures, the Funds receive cash collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Funds at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded, and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may

112

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY VALUE FUNDS

6. SECURITIES LENDING (continued)

experience delay in the recovery of their securities or incur a loss should the borrower of the securities breach its agreement with the Funds or become insolvent at a time when the collateral is insufficient to cover the cost of repurchasing securities on loan. Dividend income received from securities on loan may not be subject to withholding taxes and therefore withholding taxes paid may differ from the amounts listed in the Statements of Operations. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and as such 1) the remaining contractual maturities of the outstanding securities lending transactions are considered to be overnight and continuous and 2) the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

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

In the event of a default by a borrower with respect to any loan, BNYM may exercise any and all remedies provided under the applicable borrower agreement to make the Funds whole. These remedies include purchasing replacement securities by applying the collateral held from the defaulting broker against the purchase cost of the replacement securities. If BNYM is unable to purchase replacement securities, BNYM will indemnify the Funds by paying the Funds an amount equal to the market value of the securities loaned minus the value of cash collateral received from the borrower for the loan, subject to an exclusion for any shortfalls resulting from a loss of value in such cash collateral due to reinvestment risk. The Funds’ master netting agreements with certain borrowers provide the right, in the event of a default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. However, in the event of a default by a borrower, a resolution authority could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of set-off that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Funds’ loaned securities were all subject to enforceable Securities Lending Agreements and the value of the collateral was at least equal to the value of the cash received. The amounts of the Funds’ overnight and continuous agreements, which represent the gross amounts of recognized liabilities for securities lending transactions outstanding as of August 31, 2019, are disclosed as “Payable upon return of securities loaned” on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, where applicable.

Each of the Funds and BNYM received compensation relating to the lending of the Funds’ securities. The amounts earned, if any, by the Funds’ for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, are reported under Investment Income on the Statements of Operations.

The following table provides information about the Funds’ investments in the Government Money Market Fund for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019:

7. TAX INFORMATION (continued)

As of August 31, 2019, the Fund’s aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S federal income tax purposes were as follows:

	Equity Income			Focused Value			Large Cap Value			Mid Cap Value			Small Cap Value			Small/Mid Cap Value
Tax Cost	$	324,497,799		$	5,427,172		$	422,240,358		$	1,082,282,962		$	4,798,474,938		$	111,618,181
Gross unrealized gain		53,381,921			377,160			72,436,480			164,155,662			1,120,808,717			12,557,438
Gross unrealized loss		(17,184,812	)		(151,477	)		(19,763,153	)		(42,216,053	)		(373,212,835	)		(7,182,598	)
Net unrealized security gain	$	36,197,109		$	225,683		$	52,673,327		$	121,939,609		$	747,595,882		$	5,374,840

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales, and differences related to the tax treatment of underlying fund investments.

The Equity Income Fund reclassed $148,617 from paid-in capital to distributable earnings. In order to present certain components of the Fund’s capital accounts on a tax-basis, certain reclassifications have been recorded to the Funds’ accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the net asset value of the Funds and result primarily from expired capital loss carryforwards and differences in the tax treatment of partnership investments.

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

8. OTHER RISKS

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

Foreign and Emerging Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the United States. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation, less public information and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which a Fund invests. The imposition of exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscation of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the United States or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which a Fund has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time.

Foreign Custody Risk — If a Fund invests in foreign securities, the Fund may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Fund’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over, or independent evaluation of, their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on a Fund’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, including an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”), a Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Fund. ETFs are subject to risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including but not limited to the following: (i) the market price of the ETF’s

115

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY VALUE FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

August 31, 2019

8. OTHER RISKS (continued)

shares may trade at a premium or a discount to their NAV; and (ii) an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include a Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact a Fund’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

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

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, a Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Non-Diversification Risk — The Focused Value Fund is non-diversified, meaning that it is permitted to invest a larger percentage of its assets in fewer issuers than diversified mutual funds. Thus, the Fund may be more susceptible to adverse developments affecting any single issuer held in its portfolio, and may be more susceptible to greater losses because of these developments.

9. INDEMNIFICATIONS

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

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

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

Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Focused Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Equity Income Fund, Goldman Sachs Large Cap Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Mid Cap Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Small Cap Value Fund, and Goldman Sachs Small/Mid Cap Value Fund:

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Goldman Sachs Focused Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Equity Income Fund, Goldman Sachs Large Cap Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Mid Cap Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Small Cap Value Fund, and Goldman Sachs Small/Mid Cap Value Fund (six of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of August 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended August 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019, 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 August 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019 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 August 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent 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.

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY VALUE FUNDS

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended August 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments (with respect to Class A Shares), contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions (with respect to Class C Shares), and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (with respect to Class A, Class C, Service and Class R Shares); and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class A, Class C, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class P, Class R and Class R6 Shares of the Funds 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 from March 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019, which represents a period of 184 days of a 365 day year.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ 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 Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. 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:

+ Hypothetical expenses are based on each Fund’s actual annualized net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses.

* Expenses for each share class are calculated using each Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended August 31, 2019. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY VALUE FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Equity Income Fund, Goldman Sachs Focused Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Large Cap Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Mid Cap Value Fund, Goldman Sachs Small Cap Value Fund, and Goldman Sachs Small/Mid Cap Value Fund (the “Funds”) are investment portfolios of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Funds at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Funds.

The Management Agreement was most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2020 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 11-12, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”).

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

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, including information about:

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

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

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

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

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

(b) information on the investment performance of the Fund, including comparisons to the performance of similar mutual funds, as provided by a third-party mutual fund data provider engaged as part of the contract review process (the “Outside Data Provider”), a benchmark performance index, and, (in the case of the Mid Cap Value Fund and Small Cap Value Fund), a composite of accounts with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Adviser; and information on general investment outlooks in the markets in which the Fund invests;

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

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

(e) fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

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

(ii) the Fund’s expense trends over time; and

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

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

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

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

126

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY VALUE FUNDS

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

(i) whether the Fund’s existing management fee schedule adequately addressed any economies of scale;

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

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) information regarding commissions paid by the Fund and broker oversight, an update on the Investment Adviser’s soft dollars practices, other information regarding portfolio trading, and how the Investment Adviser carries out its duty to seek best execution;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Fund to its peers using rankings and ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2018, and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser using the peer group identified by the Outside Data Provider as of March 31, 2019. The information on each Fund’s investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, five-,

127

and ten-year periods ending on the applicable dates, to the extent that each Fund had been in existence for those periods. The Trustees also reviewed each Fund’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Funds over time, and reviewed the investment performance of each Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions. The Trustees also received information comparing the Mid Cap Value Fund’s and Small Cap Value Fund’s performance to that of composites of accounts with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Adviser.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Funds’ risk profiles, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

The Trustees observed that the Equity Income Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the one-year period, in the third quartile for the three- and five-year periods, and in the fourth quartile for the ten-year period, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-year period and underperformed for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They noted that the Equity Income Fund changed its name and introduced call options writing into the Fund’s strategy in June 2017. The Trustees also observed that the Equity Income Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2018. The Trustees noted that the Focused Value Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark for the one- and three-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They also noted that the Focused Value Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2018. The Trustees observed that the Large Cap Value Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the one-year period and in the fourth quartile for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-year period and underperformed for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They noted that the Mid Cap Value Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the one-year period, the third quartile for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods, and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-year period and underperformed the Fund’s benchmark for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019. The Trustees also noted that the Large Cap Value Fund and Mid Cap Value Fund had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2018. The Trustees noted that the Small/Mid Cap Value Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the third quartile of the Fund’s peer group for the three- and five-year periods and in the fourth quartile for the one-year period, and had underperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They observed that the Small Cap Value Fund had placed in the top half of the Fund’s peer group for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods and in the third quartile for the one-year period, and had underperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one- and three-year periods and outperformed for the five- and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

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

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

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations. The Trustees also noted that certain changes were being made to existing fee waiver or expense limitation arrangements of the Large Cap Value Fund that would have the effect of decreasing expenses of the Fund, with such changes taking effect in connection with the Fund’s next annual registration statement update. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Funds differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

128

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

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

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for each Fund was provided for 2018 and 2017, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Funds. The Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreement for each of the Funds at the following annual percentage rates of the average daily net assets of the Funds:

	Equity Income Fund			Focused Value			Large Cap Value Fund			Mid Cap Value Fund			Small Cap Value Fund			Small/Mid Cap Value Fund
First $1 billion		0.69	%		0.69	%		0.75	%		0.75	%		0.98	%		0.80	%
Next $1 billion		0.62			0.62			0.68			0.75			0.98			0.80
Next $3 billion		0.59			0.59			0.65			0.68			0.88			0.72
Next $3 billion		0.58			0.58			0.64			0.65			0.84			0.68
Over $8 billion		0.57			0.57			0.63			0.64			0.82			0.67

The Trustees noted that the breakpoints were designed to share potential economies of scale, if any, with the Funds and their shareholders as assets under management reach those asset levels. The Trustees considered the amounts of assets in the Funds; the Funds’ recent share purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and their realized profits; information comparing fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer groups; and the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to limit certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels, as well as Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC’s (“Goldman Sachs”) undertaking to waive a portion of the transfer agency fees paid by the Equity Income Fund’s, Focused Value Fund’s, and Equity Income Fund’s Class A, Class C, Investor, and Class R Shares. Upon reviewing these matters at the Annual Meeting, the Trustees concluded that the fee breakpoints represented a means of assuring that benefits of scalability, if any, would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels. They also noted that the Investment Adviser had passed along savings to shareholders of the Mid Cap Value Fund and Small Cap Value Fund, which had asset levels above at least the first breakpoint during the prior fiscal year.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs; (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities and futures transactions on behalf of the Funds; (c) research received by the Investment Adviser from broker-dealers in exchange for executing certain transactions on behalf of the Funds; (d) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Funds with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (e) fees earned by the Investment Adviser for managing the fund in which the Funds’ securities lending cash collateral is invested; (f) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Funds on behalf of its other clients; (g) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (h) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Fund Distributor; (i) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Funds; and (j) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Funds’ third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be

129

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDAMENTAL EQUITY VALUE FUNDS

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

more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Funds and Their Shareholders

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

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by each of the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser’s costs and each Fund’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Adviser’s continued management likely would benefit each Fund and its shareholders and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to each Fund until June 30, 2020.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Global Portfolio Solutions Team (“GPS Team”) discusses the Goldman Sachs Global Managed Beta Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Institutional Shares generated an average annual total return of 0.78%. This return compares to the -0.56% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI All Country World Index Investable Market Index (“ACWI IMI”) (Net, USD, 50% Non-US Developed Hedged to USD) (the “Index”), during the same time period.

Q What economic and market factors most influenced the Fund during the Reporting Period?

A Global economic growth data, central bank monetary policy and geopolitics most influenced the financial markets and the Fund during the Reporting Period.

When the Reporting Period began in September 2018, global economic growth moderated, as third calendar quarter Gross Domestic Product in both the U.S. and China slowed. However, economic growth overall remained healthy, especially in the U.S. In terms of geopolitics, the U.S. Administration imposed tariffs on $200 billion of imports from China. Major developed equity markets were up during September, broadly outperforming emerging equity markets. Regarding fixed income, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield rose 20 basis points, and real yields (i.e., nominal yields adjusted for inflation) rose 15 basis points. (A basis point is 1/100^th of a percentage point.) The increase in yields reflected strong U.S. economic activity, with ongoing fiscal stimulus boosting economic activity despite moderating growth outside the U.S. The Federal Reserve (“Fed”) raised short-term interest rates by 25 basis points, much as the markets expected, at its September policy meeting. Additionally, the Fed’s dot plot pointed to one more rate hike by the end of 2018. (The “dot plot” shows rate projections of the members of the Fed’s Open Market Committee.)

In the fourth quarter of 2018, global equities sold off, as higher U.S. real yields and softer than market expected U.S. corporate earnings guidance weighed on investors’ risk sentiment. At the same time, economic growth outside the U.S. remained weak, particularly in Europe. Also, while U.S.-China trade tensions appeared to ease heading into the G20 meeting at the end of November 2018, concerns around European auto tariffs weighed on European equities, especially Germany. (Also known as the Group of 20 nations, the G20 is a forum attended by finance ministers and central bank governors from the world’s highly developed economies consisting of 19 countries and the European Union.) In December 2018, signs of a manufacturing slowdown appeared in the U.S. However, the Fed hiked short-term interest rates by another 25 basis points. Combined with slowing corporate earnings, weaker manufacturing growth, subdued inflation and prevailing trade tensions, the Fed’s action weighed on investor risk sentiment. In this environment, emerging markets equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, returned -7.5% during the fourth calendar quarter, led by steep declines in Chinese and South Korean equities. Global equities, as represented by the Index, returned -12.7%, with Japanese equities, as measured by TOPIX, and U.S. equities, as measured by the S&P 500^® Index, returning -17.6% and -13.5%, respectively, underperforming their European counterparts, as measured by EURO STOXX 50^®, which returned -11.4%. Low levels of liquidity during the December holiday season appeared to have exacerbated some of these fourth calendar quarter declines. Within fixed income, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield rose to 3.23% before falling back to 2.69% by 2018 calendar year-end, as investors flocked to the perceived safety of bonds.

During the first quarter of 2019, risk assets broadly rebounded from their fourth-quarter 2018 sell-off, as investor sentiment turned positive on a combination of dovish global

central bank policy, tentative stabilization in Chinese economic growth and seemingly promising developments in U.S.-China trade talks. (Dovish tends to suggest lower interest rates; opposite of hawkish.) Although global economic growth continued to decelerate during the first calendar quarter, a few “green shoots” began to emerge. (Green shoots is a term used to describe signs of economic recovery or positive data during an economic downturn.) Indications of a bottoming in Chinese credit growth, a modest pick-up in fixed asset investment (which is a measure of capital spending), and an uptick in March 2019 manufacturing data made investors hopeful for a recovery in Chinese and global economic growth. As inflationary pressures remained rather muted, the Fed and the European Central Bank (“ECB”) each made a dovish shift and then maintained monetary policy stances that were broadly supportive of economic growth. More specifically, the Fed signaled it would make no additional short-term interest rate hikes during 2019, and the ECB indicated it was reluctant to raise interest rates during the calendar year. Developed markets equities, as measured by the MSCI World Index, were up 12.9% during the first calendar quarter, led by a rally in U.S. stocks. European and Japanese equities also posted gains. Meanwhile, emerging markets equities underperformed developed markets equities, but Chinese stocks, as represented by the MSCI China Index, rose more than 17%. In fixed income, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield fell by 28 basis points during the first quarter of 2019, although the breakeven inflation rate increased 16 basis points and real yields fell 44 basis points. (The breakeven inflation rate is a market-based measure of expected inflation.) The breakeven inflation rallied due to a rise in crude oil prices, and real yields declined in response to the Fed’s dovish stance.

During the second quarter of 2019, weakness in global economic growth and low levels of inflation led the Fed and ECB to indicate they might ease monetary policy. In June, the Fed signaled its next policy move was more likely to be an interest rate cut than an interest rate hike. The Fed’s dot plot revealed that policymakers expected to keep interest rates stable during 2019, which would then be followed by a 25 basis point cut in 2020. In Europe, the ECB hinted that interest rate cuts and quantitative easing were on the table should economic data disappoint in the near term. On the geopolitical front, the news flow remained volatile, with the U.S. President suggesting that U.S.-China trade negotiations were not in line with his expectations and that his Administration might raise tariffs on Chinese goods. However, at the June 2019 G20 meeting, the U.S. and China decided to re-start trade negotiations and to implement no new tariffs. Global equities, as measured by the Index, rose 3.9% during the second calendar quarter overall, despite an approximately -6% return during May 2019 when U.S.-China trade negotiations faltered. Global equities recovered in June, driven by dovish central bank actions and market expectations for a pause in U.S.-China trade tensions ahead of the G20 meeting at month end. Within developed markets equities, European and U.S. stocks recorded gains. Export-oriented Japanese equities were down due mainly to strength in the Japanese yen. Emerging markets equities were up modestly but underperformed developed markets equities. Within fixed income, weaker global economic growth and subdued inflation across developed markets weighed on sovereign government bond yields. The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield and the 10-year German government bond yield fell by 40 basis points and 25 basis points, respectively. Market participants continued to price in potential interest rate cuts by the Fed in 2019, with the expected magnitude of the cut increasing over the course of the quarter. Within currencies, the U.S. dollar was modestly weaker versus many major currencies during the second quarter of 2019.

In July 2019, most asset classes delivered subdued but positive returns. Although volatility was muted at the beginning of the month, global equities pulled back during the last week, as U.S.-China trade tensions and investors’ global economic growth concerns reemerged. On July 31st, the Fed cut short-term interest rates by 25 basis points — the first rate cut since 2008. The ECB gave strong hints that additional easing might be imminent. Within equities, developed markets stocks, as measured by the MSCI World Index, continued their solid run, returning 1.3% and outperforming emerging markets stocks, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which returned -1.1%. Meanwhile, the S&P 500^® Index reached new all-time highs, up 1.4% during July and up more than 20% for the 2019 year to date. Within fixed income, global government bonds posted modest gains, with strength in European bonds partially offset by mild weakness in U.S. Treasury securities. Among currencies, the U.S. dollar appreciated versus most major currencies during July 2019.

During August 2019, global economic data saw some early signs of stabilization, albeit at lower levels of growth. U.S. economic growth was strong, with solid jobs data and core durable goods orders. However, purchasing managers’ indices (“PMI”) across the U.S. and Europe, as well as German manufacturing and broader sentiment indicators,

disappointed. Second quarter 2019 corporate earnings also came in slightly better than the markets’ low expectations, which were set during the pre-season when a lot of companies announced cuts to 2019 guidance. On the monetary policy front, major central banks continued to signal accommodative monetary policies to stem slowing global economic growth. As for geopolitics, trade tensions escalated, with the U.S. President announcing another round of tariffs on Chinese goods, effective September 1^st, as trade talks derailed. China followed with its own round of tariffs before the U.S. President increased tariffs yet again. In this environment, risk assets sold off. Global equities, as measured by the Index, returned -2.3%, led by a -4.9% return for emerging markets equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Within developed markets equities, Japanese stocks, as represented by TOPIX, were the worst performers, returning -3.4%, due to the appreciation of the Japanese yen. Eurozone stocks, as measured by the EURO STOXX 50^®, and U.S. stocks, as measured by the S&P 500^® Index, returned -1.1% and -1.6%, respectively, during August. Fixed income broadly rallied, with the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield falling approximately 50 basis points and the 10-year German government bond yield falling approximately 25 basis points. Most European bond yields hit record lows during the month, as did the 30-year U.S. Treasury yield. In addition, for the first time since May 2007, the spread between the yields on two-year and 10-year U.S. Treasury securities inverted, meaning two-year yields were higher than 10-year yields. This triggered broad market anxiety about the potential of a U.S. recession.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund primarily seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a diversified portfolio of underlying asset classes that provide broad beta exposure to the global equity markets. (Beta refers to the component of returns that is attributable to market risk exposure, rather than manager skill.) The GPS Team determines allocations to the underlying asset classes — and within the underlying asset classes — based on its cycle-aware long-term strategic allocation model, which may include factor-based diversification. The factor-based diversification approach is implemented through a separately managed account composed of individual stock positions. In addition, effective June 28, 2019, the GPS Team added an options-based strategy, which seeks to generate returns in moderately rising or moderately declining global equity markets wherein realized volatility may be lower than the volatility implied by the option prices.

During the Reporting Period, the Fund outperformed the Index, driven mostly by its strategic allocation to the macro hedging strategy (through which we seek to diversify the Fund’s overall exposure to global equity asset classes). Specifically, the Fund was long call options on Eurodollar futures in different segments at the short-term end of the Eurodollar yield curve, which added to returns, as global equities modestly declined and global interest rates fell during the Reporting Period. (Eurodollar futures are contracts that have underlying assets linked to time deposits denominated in U.S. dollars at banks outside the U.S. They are used to hedge against yield curve changes over multiple years into the future. Yield curve is a spectrum of maturities of varying lengths. A call option is an option that gives the holder the right to buy a certain quantity of an underlying security at an agreed-upon price at any time up to an agreed-upon date.)

On the negative side, the Fund was hurt by its strategic allocation to riskier assets, specifically U.S. small-cap equities and emerging markets stocks, which fell approximately 15% and 5%, respectively, during the Reporting Period overall. Additionally, an overweight in developed markets equities through the Fund’s factor-based diversification approach detracted from performance. An underweight in U.S. large-cap equities further diminished returns. Finally, our medium-term view that the Fund be positioned in short-term interest rates hurt performance as interest rates fell over the course of the Reporting Period.

The impact of our factor-based strategies overall was rather neutral during the Reporting Period. Our factor-based strategies are Momentum, Valuation, Quality and Volatility. The Momentum factor seeks to identify companies whose stock prices are expected to increase or decrease (by, among other things, evaluating each company’s recent performance results). The Valuation factor seeks to identify companies whose stock prices are trading at a discount to their fundamental or intrinsic value (by, among other things, comparing each company’s book value to market value). The Quality factor seeks to identify companies that are expected to generate higher returns on assets (i.e., more profitable). The Volatility factor seeks to identify companies whose stock prices are expected to have a relatively lower degree of fluctuation over time.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

Q How was the Fund positioned at the beginning of the Reporting Period?

A In terms of its strategic allocation at the beginning of the Reporting Period, the Fund had 98.00% of its total net assets invested in equity-related investments, 1.72% in the macro hedging strategy and 0.28% in cash and cash equivalents. The Fund also maintained a position in cash and cash equivalents to cover the exposure of various derivatives positions. This above sector breakout is inclusive of derivative exposure across all asset classes.

Q How did you tactically manage the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period?

A When the Reporting Period began, and as had been the case for most of 2018, the Fund maintained an overweight versus the Index in emerging markets equities versus developed markets equities. However, in October 2018, we modestly reduced the Fund’s overweight in emerging markets equities due to heightened market volatility driven by emerging markets currency risk. This overweight was decreased further at the beginning of 2019. We had expected to see the start of a rebound in China’s economic data by the end of the fourth quarter of 2018 in response to policy initiatives that sought to stimulate growth, but fresh data releases showed continued deterioration. We were particularly worried about weak industrial production data in December 2018 and the drop below 50 of both China’s official manufacturing PMI and the Caixin/Markit China manufacturing PMI during the same month. During the second and third quarters of 2019, we reduced the Fund’s overweight in emerging markets equities and its overweight in U.S. small-cap equities.

Effective June 28, 2019, as mentioned previously, we introduced an options-based strategy. In the process, we decreased the Fund’s allocation to our factor-based strategies and added a position in U.S. large-cap equity futures, through which we sought to diversify the Fund’s sources of active risk while at the same time maintaining its broad beta exposure to the global equities market.

Finally, at the beginning of the Reporting Period, the Fund held a steepening position on the front, or short-term, end of the U.S. Treasury yield curve. (A steepening position seeks to take advantage of a widening differential between yields at the shorter- and longer-term ends of a range of maturities.) In December 2018, we allowed the longer end of this steepening position to expire, and thereafter, the Fund held an outright short position in the two-year segment of the U.S. Treasury yield curve. In July 2019, given the Fed’s dovish tilt and less optimistic economic view, we reduced the size of this short position.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, equity futures were employed to express our passive investment views with greater versatility. The use of these instruments to gain exposure to the U.S. small-cap equity market detracted from the Fund’s performance and their use to gain exposure to the Canadian and U.S. large-cap equity markets added modestly to returns, as each of these positions generated returns similar to the asset classes they represented. Overall, the use of equity futures had a negative impact on the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period. In addition, the Fund employed currency forwards and interest rate options to afford greater risk management of macroeconomic and foreign exchange risks in the portfolio. Currency forwards contributed positively to the Fund’s returns due to strength in the U.S. dollar. Interest rate options also added to Fund performance and broadly accomplished their intended purpose in the risk-off environment of the fourth quarter of 2018.

Q How was the Fund positioned at the end of the Reporting Period?

A In terms of its strategic allocation at the end of the Reporting Period, the Fund had 103.69% of its total net assets invested in equity-related investments, 1.78% in the macro hedging strategy and 0% in cash and cash equivalents. However, the Fund maintained a position in cash and cash equivalents to cover the exposure of various derivatives positions. This above sector breakout is inclusive of derivative exposure across all asset classes.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Effective May 8, 2019, Siwen Wu became a portfolio manager of the Fund. By design, all investment decisions for the Fund are performed within a co-lead or team structure, with multiple subject matter experts. This strategic decision making has been the cornerstone of our approach and helps to ensure continuity in the Fund. At the end of the Reporting Period, the portfolio managers for the Fund were Neill Nuttall, Kate El-Hillow and Siwen Wu.

Q What is the Fund’s tactical asset allocation view and strategy for the months ahead?

A At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed the global economy remained in the expansionary phase of the business

cycle and was likely to grow above trend through 2019. That said, the risks to this view increased in late 2018, as global economic growth data deteriorated more than we had expected. The overall level of economic activity, however, had not fallen to levels that would have forced us to change our core views, and at the end of the Reporting Period, our forward-looking indicators still suggested a positive economic growth environment into 2020. Also at the end of the Reporting Period, we believed some causes of the global economic slowdown would prove temporary. Further, with global central banks starting to ease monetary policy once more, we thought a recession was unlikely during 2019.

In the U.S., we started to see early signs of stabilization in economic data near the end of the Reporting Period. Such stabilization has historically been associated with equity returns close to those in an economic expansion. As for the Eurozone, we expected fiscal and monetary policies, as well as robust labor markets, to be supportive for economic growth over the medium term. However, we thought uncertainty was likely to remain high given the weakness of economic data during the summer of 2019. In the emerging markets, we anticipated that more policy support could lead to a short-term recovery in Chinese economic data, though we considered the medium-term outlook challenging. Our outlook for other emerging markets was more uncertain, largely because economic growth had not rebounded by the end of the Reporting Period.

Regarding geopolitics, trade tensions had escalated between the U.S. and China and a near-term deal between the two countries seemed unlikely to us at the end of the Reporting Period. Meanwhile, investor uncertainty about trade had increased, which was, in our view, reflected more in government bond markets than in equity or corporate credit markets. At the end of the Reporting Period, the yield on a 10-year U.S. Treasury security was below our year-end target range of 1.75% to 2.25%. Overall, we thought the factors driving lower bond yields during the Reporting Period would prove relatively long-lasting.

At the conclusion of the Reporting Period, we noted signs of late economic cycle vulnerability. However, we believed it would be more appropriate to “prepare” the Fund for the end of the cycle than to actually “position” it for the end. Accordingly, we modestly reduced the Fund’s risk exposures overall and also sought to decrease its potential tracking error versus the Index by further trimming its allocations to small-cap equities and factor-based strategies and adding allocations to passive large-cap equity indices. In our view, this would decrease the Fund’s active risk in terms of country and capitalization selection versus the Index. Looking ahead, we were planning at the end of the Reporting Period to introduce volatility selling as an additional diversified source of risk premium in an effort to improve the Fund’s return profile during small market moves and in low volatility environments. (Volatility selling seeks to benefit from changes in the level of market implied volatility (i.e., expectations of future volatility) in equity markets.) We also believed volatility selling may diversify the Fund’s active risk, which was concentrated in the macro hedging strategy at the end of the Reporting Period. That said, we consider the macro hedging strategy a long-term structural allocation and a capital-efficient means of diversifying the Fund’s exposure to global equities. Should the Fed maintain its more “patient” and flexible approach to short-term interest rate policy, we plan to continue monitoring the potential impact of events related to key political and monetary policy decisions in the near term.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2019

1. ORGANIZATION

Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Goldman Sachs Global Managed Beta Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified fund that currently offers one class of shares — Institutional Shares. Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Fund pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

A.  Investment Valuation — The Fund’s valuation policy is to value investments at fair value.

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income, and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Fund may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments. Distributions received from the Fund’s investments in U.S. real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain and/or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Fund as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT.

For derivative contracts, realized gains and losses are recorded upon settlement of the contract.

C.  Expenses — Expenses incurred directly by the Fund are charged to the Fund, and certain expenses incurred by the Trust that may not solely relate to the Fund are allocated to the Fund and the other applicable funds of the Trust on a straight-line and/or pro-rata basis, depending upon the nature of the expenses, and are accrued daily.

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

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

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

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

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

translation. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the date the transaction occurred, the effects of which are included within net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

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

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

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

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Fund, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have delegated to GSAM day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

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

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities may be valued at the closing bid price for long positions and at the closing ask price for short positions. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2.

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

Private Investments — Private investments may include, but are not limited to, investments in private equity or debt instruments. The investment manager estimates the fair value of private investments based upon various factors, including, but not limited to, transactions in similar instruments, completed or pending third-party transactions in underlying investments or comparable entities, subsequent rounds of financing, recapitalizations, and other transactions across the capital structure, offerings in equity or debt capital markets, and changes in current and projected financial ratios or cash flows.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

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

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

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

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

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a forward contract in which the Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked-to-market daily at the applicable forward rate. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.

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

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

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

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

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

C.  Fair Value Hierarchy — The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments and derivatives classified in the fair value hierarchy as of August 31, 2019:

Investment Type	Level 1			Level 2			Level 3

4. INVESTMENTS IN DERIVATIVES

The following table sets forth, by certain risk types, the gross value of derivative contracts (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) as of August 31, 2019. These instruments were used as part of the Fund’s investment strategies and to obtain and/or manage exposure related to the risks below. The values in the tables below exclude the effects of cash collateral received or posted pursuant to these derivative contracts, and therefore are not representative of the Fund’s net exposure.

Risk	Statement of Assets and Liabilities	Assets			Statement of Assets and Liabilities	Liabilities
Interest	Purchased options, at value	$	41,341,482		—	$	—
Currency	Receivable for unrealized gain on forward foreign currency exchange contracts		7,631,702		Payable for unrealized loss on forward foreign currency exchange contracts		(2,856,848)
Equity	Variation margin on futures contracts, Purchased options, at value		1,726,346	(a)	Variation margin on futures contracts		(2,237,692)	(a)
Total		$	50,699,530			$	(5,094,540)

(a) Represents unrealized gain (loss) on futures contracts described in the Additional Investment Information sections of the Schedule of Investments. Only current day’s variation margin is reported within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The following table sets forth, by certain risk types, the Fund’s gains (losses) related to these derivatives and their indicative volumes for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019. These gains (losses) should be considered in the context that these derivative contracts may have been executed to create investment opportunities and/or economically hedge certain investments, and accordingly, certain gains (losses) on such derivative contracts may offset certain (losses) gains attributable to investments. These gains (losses) are included in “Net realized gain (loss)” or “Net change in unrealized gain (loss)” on the Statement of Operations:

Risk	Statement of Operations	Net Realized Gain (Loss)			Net Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss)			Average Number of Contracts(a)
Interest	Net realized gain (loss) on purchased options and futures contracts/ Net change in unrealized gain (loss) on purchased options	$	13,806,414		$	16,869,544			18
Currency	Net realized gain (loss) on forward foreign currency exchange contracts/Net change in unrealized gain (loss) on forward foreign currency exchange contracts		8,705,229			1,495,900			29
Equity	Net realized gain (loss) on purchased options and futures contracts/ Net change in unrealized gain (loss) on purchased options and futures contracts		(8,566,673	)		(6,258,773	)		1,567
Total		$	13,944,970			$12,106,671			1,614

(a) Average number of contracts is based on the average of month end balances for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, the Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivatives counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Fund and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives (including forward foreign currency exchange contracts, and certain options and swaps), and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

Collateral and margin requirements differ between exchange traded derivatives and OTC derivatives. Margin requirements are established by the broker or clearing house for exchange-traded and centrally cleared derivatives (financial futures contracts, options and centrally cleared swaps) pursuant to governing agreements for those instrument types. Brokers can ask for margin in excess of the minimum in certain circumstances. Collateral terms are contract-specific for OTC derivatives. For derivatives traded

34

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL MANAGED BETA FUND

4. INVESTMENTS IN DERIVATIVES (continued)

under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the marked to market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by the Fund and the counterparty. Additionally, the Fund may be required to post initial margin to the counterparty, the terms of which would be outlined in the confirmation of the OTC transaction.

For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Fund and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is reported separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as receivables/payables for collateral on certain derivative contracts. Non-cash collateral pledged by the Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedule of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a counterparty must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer is required to be made. To the extent amounts due to the Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty nonperformance. The Fund attempts to mitigate counterparty risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that the Investment Adviser believes to be of good standing and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

Additionally, the netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received are based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the ISDA Master Agreement or similar agreements. However, in the event of a default or insolvency of a counterparty, a court could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of setoff that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws.

The following table sets forth the Fund’s net exposure for derivative instruments that are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements as of August 31, 2019:

	Derivative Assets(1)						Derivative Liabilities(1)						Net Derivative Asset (Liabilities)		Collateral (Received) Pledged(1)			Net Amount(2)
Counterparty	Options Purchased		Forward Currency Contracts		Total		Forward Currency Contracts			Total
Citibank NA	$	1,336,841	$	—	$	1,336,841	$	—		$	—		$	1,336,841	$	(1,336,841	)	$	—

Total	$	1,336,841	$	7,631,702	$	8,968,543	$	(2,856,848	)	$	(2,856,848	)	$	6,111,695	$	(1,336,841	)	$	4,774,854

(1) Gross amounts available for offset but not netted in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

(2) Net amount represents the net amount due (to) from counterparty in the event of a default based on the contractual set-off rights under the agreement. Net amount excludes any over-collateralized amounts.

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A.  Management Agreement — Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Fund, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Fund’s business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of 0.30% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

GSAM has agreed to waive all management fees payable by the Fund, except those management fees it earns from the Fund’s investments of cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (the “Government Money Market Fund”). This arrangement will remain in place through at least December 28, 2019 and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate this arrangement without the approval of the Trustees. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, GSAM waived $3,495,293 in management fees.

B.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Fund for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rate of 0.02% of the average daily net assets of Institutional Shares.

C.  Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Fund (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, service fees and shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of the Fund. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Fund is not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. The Other Expense limitations as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets for the Fund is 0.204%. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the Fund did not have any other expense reimbursements from GSAM.

The Fund invests in Institutional Shares of the Government Money Market Fund and the shares of the Goldman Sachs ActiveBeta Emerging Markets Equity ETF Fund, which are affiliated Underlying Funds. GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit “Other Expenses” in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to any of the affiliated funds in which the Fund invests. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, GSAM waived $249,657 of the Fund’s management fee.

These Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least December 28, 2019, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees. In addition, the Fund has entered into certain offset arrangements with the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Fund’s expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

D.  Line of Credit Facility — As of August 31, 2019, the Fund participated in a $580,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and certain registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Fund based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the Fund did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 30, 2019, the facility was $770,000,000.

E.  Other Transactions with Affiliates — The following table provides information about the Fund’s investments in the Underlying Funds as of and for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019.

7. SECURITIES LENDING

The Fund may lend its securities through a securities lending agent, the Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”), to certain qualified borrowers. In accordance with the Fund’s securities lending procedures, the Fund receives cash collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund, at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded, and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may experience delay in the recovery of its securities or incur a loss should the borrower of the securities breach its agreement with the Fund or become insolvent at a time when the collateral is insufficient to cover the cost of repurchasing securities on loan. Dividend income received from securities on loan may not be subject to withholding taxes and therefore withholding taxes paid may differ from the amounts listed in the Statement of Operations. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and as such 1) the remaining contractual maturities of the outstanding securities lending transactions are considered to be overnight and continuous and 2) the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

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

In the event of a default by a borrower with respect to any loan, BNYM may exercise any and all remedies provided under the applicable borrower agreement to make the Fund whole. These remedies include purchasing replacement securities by applying the collateral held from the defaulting broker against the purchase cost of the replacement securities. If BNYM is unable to purchase replacement securities, BNYM will indemnify the Fund by paying the Fund an amount equal to the market value of the securities loaned minus the value of cash collateral received from the borrower for the loan, subject to an exclusion for any shortfalls resulting from a loss of value in such cash collateral due to reinvestment risk. The Fund’s master netting agreements with certain borrowers provide the right, in the event of a default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. However, in the event of a default by a borrower, a resolution authority could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of set-off that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Fund’s loaned securities were all subject to enforceable Securities Lending Agreements and the value of the collateral was at least equal to the value of the cash received. The amounts of the Fund’s overnight and continuous agreements, which represent the gross amounts of recognized liabilities for securities lending transactions outstanding as of August 31, 2019, are disclosed as “Payable upon return of securities loaned” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, where applicable. The Fund did not have securities on loan as of August 31, 2019.

Both the Fund and BNYM received compensation relating to the lending of the Fund’s securities. The amounts earned, if any, by the Fund for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, are reported under Investment Income on the Statement of Operations.

The following table provides information about the Fund’s investments in the Government Money Market Fund for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019:

Beginning value as of August 31, 2018		Purchases at Cost		Proceeds from Sales			Ending Value as of August 31, 2019
$	532,050	$	120,936,504	$	(121,468,554	)	$	—

8. TAX INFORMATION

The tax character of distributions paid during the period ended August 31, 2019 was as follows:

Distribution paid from:
Ordinary income	$	36,079,372
Net long-term capital gains		3,797,918
Total taxable distributions	$	39,877,290

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2018 was as follows:

Distribution paid from:
Ordinary income	$	19,451,366
Net long-term capital gains		2,036,345
Total taxable distributions	$	21,487,711

As of August 31, 2019, the components of accumulated earnings (losses) on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income — net	$	27,785,682
Undistributed long-term capital gains		8,616,045
Total undistributed earnings	$	36,401,727
Timing differences (Straddle Loss Deferral)	$	(134,097	)
Unrealized gains — net		79,319,314
Total accumulated earnings net	$	115,586,944

As of August 31, 2019, the Fund’s aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Tax Cost	$	1,039,358,937
Gross unrealized gain		104,789,418
Gross unrealized loss		(25,470,104	)
Net unrealized gains	$	79,319,314

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

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

9. OTHER RISKS

Derivatives Risk — The Fund’s use of derivatives may result in loss. Derivative instruments, which may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in securities, currencies or other instruments, may be illiquid or less liquid, volatile, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes in the value of the underlying instruments may produce

38

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL MANAGED BETA FUND

9. OTHER RISKS (continued)

disproportionate losses to the Fund. Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligation. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with investments in more traditional securities and instruments. Losses from derivatives can also result from a lack of correlation between changes in the value of derivative instruments and the portfolio assets (if any) being hedged.

Foreign and Emerging Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the United States. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation, less public information and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which the Fund invests. The imposition of exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscations of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the United States or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which the Fund has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. To the extent that the Fund also invests in securities of issuers located in emerging markets, these risks may be more pronounced.

Foreign Custody Risk — If the Fund invests in foreign securities, the Fund may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Fund’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over, or independent evaluation of, their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on the Fund’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Geographic Risk — If the Fund focuses its investments in securities of issuers located in a particular country or geographic region, the Fund may be subjected, to a greater extent than if its investments were less focused, to the risks of volatile economic cycles and/or conditions and developments that may be particular to that country or region, such as: adverse securities markets; adverse exchange rates; adverse social, political, regulatory, economic, business, environmental or other developments; or natural disasters.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, including an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”), the Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Fund. ETFs are subject to risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including but not limited to the following: (i) the market price of the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or a discount to their NAV; and (ii) an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — The Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include the Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of the Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in the Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect the Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

August 31, 2019

9. OTHER RISKS (continued)

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, the Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). Additionally, the Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses its investments in securities of issuers in one or more sectors (such as the financial services or telecommunications sectors), the Fund may be subjected, to a greater extent than if its investments were diversified across different sectors, to the risks of volatile economic cycles and/or conditions and developments that may be particular to that sector, such as: adverse economic, business, political, environmental or other developments.

10. INDEMNIFICATIONS

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

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

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

12. SUMMARY OF SHARE TRANSACTIONS

Report of Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of

Goldman Sachs Global Managed Beta Fund:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Goldman Sachs Global Managed Beta Fund (one of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, referred to hereafter as the “Fund”) as of August 31, 2019, the related statement of operations for the year ended August 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019, 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 August 31, 2019, 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 August 31, 2019 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 August 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent 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.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended  August 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Institutional Shares of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs and 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 from March 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019, which represents a period of 184 days out of a 365 day year.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual net expense ratios 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.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. 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 be higher.

Share Class	Beginning Account Value 3/1/19		Ending Account Value 8/31/19			Expenses Paid for the 6 months ended 8/31/19*
Institutional
Actual	$	1,000.00	$	1,043.10		$	0.31
Hypothetical 5% return		1,000.00		1,024.90	+		0.31

+ Hypothetical expenses are based on the Fund’s actual annualized net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses.

* Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended August 31, 2019. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period was 0.06%.

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL MANAGED BETA FUND

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Global Managed Beta Fund (the “Fund”) is an investment portfolio of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Fund at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Fund.

The Management Agreement was most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2020 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 11-12, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”).

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

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, including information about:

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

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

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

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

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

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

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

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

(e) fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

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

(ii) the Fund’s expense trends over time; and

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

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

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

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

(i) whether the Fund’s existing management fee schedule adequately addressed any economies of scale;

43

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL MANAGED BETA FUND

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

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

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) information regarding commissions paid by the Fund and broker oversight, other information regarding portfolio trading, and how the Investment Adviser carries out its duty to seek best execution;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Fund. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of the Fund to its peers using rankings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2018, and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser using the peer group identified by the Outside Data Provider as of March 31, 2019. The information on the Fund’s investment performance was provided for the one-, and three-year periods ending on the applicable dates. The Trustees also reviewed the Fund’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. They observed that the Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the third quartile of the Fund’s peer group for the one-year period and the second quartile for the three-year period, and had underperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one- and three-year

44

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL MANAGED BETA FUND

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

periods ended March 31, 2019. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the investment performance trends of the Fund over time, and reviewed the investment performance of the Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Fund’s risk profile, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

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

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

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Fund, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Fund differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

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

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed the Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for the Fund was provided for 2018 and 2017, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund. The Trustees considered that the Fund is offered to the Investment Adviser’s institutional clients as part of an investment model whereby the Fund and other funds act as core “building blocks” with which the client and the Investment Adviser form an investment strategy for the client’s portfolio. The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s representations that its clients benefit from this investment model with increased liquidity, increased investment oversight, access to new investment strategies, economies of scale, and reduced complexity in managing client portfolios. The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to waive the management fees payable by the Fund. In this regard, the Trustees noted that, pursuant to the model, clients pay a single management fee for the Investment Adviser’s management of their accounts, and that fund-level management fees are waived in order to avoid charging two layers of management fees.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”); (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities and futures transactions on behalf of the Fund; (c) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Fund with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (d) fees earned by the Investment Adviser for managing the fund in which the Fund’s securities lending cash collateral is invested; (e) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Fund on behalf of its other clients; (f) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (g) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Fund Distributor; (h) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Fund; and (i) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Fund’s third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Fund and Its Shareholders

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

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by the Fund were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser’s costs and the Fund’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Adviser’s continued management likely would benefit the Fund and its shareholders and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to the Fund until June 30, 2020.

MARKET REVIEW

Goldman Sachs Global Tax-Aware Equity Portfolios

Investment Strategy

The Portfolios invest in a strategic mix of Underlying Funds and other securities with the goal of achieving long-term growth of capital (both Portfolios) and current income (Goldman Sachs Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio only). Under normal conditions, at least 80% of the Portfolios’ total assets measured at the time of purchase will be allocated among the Underlying Funds that currently exist or that may become available for investment in the future for which Goldman Sachs Asset Management (“GSAM”) or an affiliate, now or in the future, acts as investment adviser or principal underwriter. Some of the Underlying Funds invest primarily in fixed income or money market instruments and other Underlying Funds invest primarily in equity securities. The Portfolios may also invest directly in the Underlying Tactical Fund (as defined below) and other securities or instruments, including unaffiliated exchange-traded funds and derivatives, and can use these investments for implementing tactical tilts. Under normal circumstances, each of the Portfolios also has a small strategic allocation to U.S. investment grade corporate bonds, which is used to help fund the tactical tilts.

Market Review

During the 12 months ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”), the financial markets were influenced most by global economic growth expectations, central bank monetary policy and geopolitics. U.S. equities and the broad fixed income market generated positive returns, while non-U.S. developed markets stocks and emerging markets equities recorded negative returns.

Equity Markets

When the Reporting Period began in September 2018, volatility was high in the global equity markets, fueled by harsh trade rhetoric between the U.S. and China as well as key U.S. allies and by strong U.S. macroeconomic data relative to other developed markets and to emerging markets. Against a backdrop of solid U.S. economic growth, near-target inflation and healthy monthly job gains, the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) raised short-term interest rates by 25 basis points, in line with market expectations. (A basis point is 1/100th of a percentage point.)

In October 2018, global equities broadly retreated, as investor sentiment rapidly deteriorated on a delayed response to a rise in global interest rates earlier in the month, a moderation of global economic growth expectations, hawkish rhetoric from the Fed, and corporate concerns about global economic growth and trade expressed in third quarter 2018 earnings guidance. (Hawkish rhetoric tends to imply higher interest rates; opposite of dovish.) U.S. stocks and emerging markets equities then rebounded in November 2018 on more accommodative comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell and on seeming headway being made in U.S.-China trade talks. However, non-U.S. developed markets equities see-sawed during the month based on trade, political and economic growth concerns on the one hand and Fed Chair Powell’s dovish comments and what appeared to be encouraging progress in U.S.-China trade talks on the other. During December 2018, global equities overall plunged on renewed investor fears sparked by the arrest of a Chinese technology executive, the partial U.S. federal government shutdown, the U.S. President’s criticism of Fed Chair Powell and reignited corporate earnings growth concerns. Escalating trade tensions, worries about slowing global economic growth and populist politics also weighed on market sentiment during the month. The Fed raised interest rates by another 25 basis points in December 2018.

MARKET REVIEW

During the first quarter of 2019, global equities broadly rebounded, with U.S. stocks leading the way. Fed commentary provided a supportive background for U.S. equities, as Fed Chair Powell reiterated a “patient” approach to monetary policy that included a pause in interest rate hikes and a nearing end to the unwinding of the Fed’s balance sheet. (The Fed unwinds, or shrinks, its balance sheet by selling securities on its balance sheet and/or not reinvesting maturing securities.) In Europe, stocks performed well despite the overhang of Brexit, which refers to the U.K.’s efforts to leave the European Union. Emerging markets stocks benefited from seemingly progressing negotiations between the U.S. and China, improving financial conditions and positively trending economic data.

In the second calendar quarter, global equities posted more moderate gains. Trade tensions between the U.S. and China dominated headlines and broadly added noise to the markets. (In a broad analytical context, noise refers to information or activity that confuses or misrepresents genuine underlying trends.) In April 2019, there was a widely-held optimistic outlook for a possible trade deal, but such optimism faded in May when the U.S. President threatened to raise then-current tariffs and impose new duties on $300 billion of additional Chinese imports. Sanctions were temporarily placed on a Chinese telecommunications giant until they were lifted in June 2019, when any additional tariffs or compromise were postponed. Also during the second quarter of 2019, global equities were supported by the accommodative stances of various central banks and by investor expectations of a recovery in China’s economic growth.

During July 2019, developed equity markets overall delivered muted, but still positive, returns. In the U.S., the Fed lowered interest rates by 25 basis points, marking the first interest rate cut since 2008. Fed Chair Powell’s tone was dovish throughout the month, though more hawkish sentiment at the announcement of the cut raised market uncertainty surrounding future easing of monetary policy. Outside the U.S., developed markets equities were resilient despite weak manufacturing data in Europe and continued geopolitical uncertainty related to the U.S.-China trade dispute and Brexit. Emerging markets stocks declined, primarily due to U.S.-China trade tensions. During July 2019, the U.S. President announced a one-year exemption of 110 Chinese products from the 25% tariffs that had been previously added on July 6, 2018. However, he later threatened to introduce new tariffs on $325 billion of Chinese goods despite the truce that was agreed upon at the G20 Summit at the end of June 2019. (The G20 (or Group of Twenty) is an international forum for the governments and central bank governors from 19 countries and the European Union.)

Global equities broadly declined in August 2019. The month’s headlines were dominated by trade tensions, as the U.S. President announced an intention to impose additional tariffs on remaining Chinese goods not yet subject to tariffs, causing increased market volatility. In the U.S., economic data was largely mixed, with manufacturing data and consumer confidence showing signs of weakness but domestic demand holding steady in the context of a strong labor market and rising wages.

Fixed Income Markets

Spread, or non-government bond, sectors generally performed well in September 2018, when the Reporting Period began. U.S. economic growth remained strong, though some major economies, including those of the Eurozone, the U.K. and China, exhibited a gradual weakening trend. The Fed raised short-term interest rates, with its dot plot pointing to another increase by the end of 2018 and three more during 2019. (The “dot plot” shows rate projections of the members of the Fed’s Open Market Committee.) Fed Chair Powell delivered an upbeat assessment of the U.S. economy, which supported market expectations for these additional Fed rate hikes in 2019. U.S. Treasury rates rose in response, followed, in turn, by the interest rates of several other developed markets countries. The U.S. dollar was broadly flat versus many major currencies during the month.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, investor concerns about slowing global economic growth momentum as well as tighter financial conditions, mainly in the U.S., weighed on spread sector performance. In particular, U.S. corporate bonds experienced notable weakness, as credit spreads, or yield differentials versus U.S. Treasury securities, widened significantly. U.S. Treasury yields fell as investors grew fearful about the possible end of the global economic cycle and as their expectations for Fed rate hikes diminished. In December 2018, Fed policymakers raised short-term interest rates, much as the market had expected, but lowered their projection for 2019 monetary policy tightening from three rate hikes to two. U.S. economic activity data remained in expansionary territory during the fourth calendar quarter but moderated from cycle highs. Headline inflation pressures eased as crude oil prices declined. The U.S. dollar appreciated relative to many major currencies during the fourth calendar quarter.

MARKET REVIEW

In the first quarter of 2019, spread sectors broadly posted gains, as dovish pivots by global central banks boosted investor sentiment and helped fuel rallies in both sovereign government bonds and riskier segments of the fixed income market. Notably, high yield corporate bonds recorded their strongest start to a calendar year on record. The Fed kept its monetary policy unchanged during the first calendar quarter, with its dot plot projecting no interest rate hikes at all during 2019. Meanwhile, the European Central Bank (“ECB”) extended its forward guidance, noting that its interest rates would remain unchanged through 2019. Other developed markets’ central banks — namely, those of Australia, New Zealand and Switzerland — also turned dovish. The U.S. economy continued to benefit from strength in household consumption, which was underpinned by a healthy labor market. The U.S. dollar strengthened relative to many major currencies during the first quarter of 2019.

In the second calendar quarter, most spread sectors recorded gains. The quarter started off on a positive note in April 2019, as developed markets’ central banks kept monetary policy unchanged. In the U.S., the Fed noted that inflation softness might be due to “transitory factors.” The Bank of Japan clarified its forward guidance to signal unchanged monetary policy through the spring of 2020, while the Bank of England (“BoE”) maintained its guidance around interest rate hikes occurring at a gradual pace and to a limited extent. Statements by Sweden’s Riksbank and the Bank of Canada were also somewhat dovish, as they generally focused on risks arising from slower global economic growth. However, in May 2019, spread sectors were challenged by the escalation of U.S.-China trade tensions. That same month, market speculation about possible 2019 Fed rate cuts increased due to an accumulation of factors, including soft inflation, weakness in U.S. economic data, continued global economic growth headwinds from unresolved U.S.-China trade negotiations and weakness in the manufacturing sector. During June 2019, spread sector performance improved on raised prospects of ongoing monetary policy accommodation by global central banks, particularly the Fed. At its June meeting, the U.S. central bank left interest rates unchanged, but eight of the 12 members on the Federal Open Market Committee projected rate cuts during the 2019 calendar year. In Europe, a dovish speech by outgoing ECB President Mario Draghi signaled forthcoming easing. The U.S. dollar weakened versus many major currencies during the second quarter of 2019.

In July 2019, spread sectors benefited from the dovish outlooks of global central banks, though they gave up some of their gains later in the month as U.S.-China trade tensions escalated. In the U.S., economic data was mixed. Although employment and wage growth continued, manufacturing and non-manufacturing indices both declined. The Fed delivered its first interest rate cut since 2008, though Fed Chair Powell described it as a “mid-cycle adjustment.” The Fed also announced it would stop trimming its balance sheet in September 2019, two months earlier than expected. Elsewhere, the ECB set the stage for a policy easing package in September, which was widely expected to include a rate cut, resumed asset purchases and strengthened forward guidance. At the same time, the BoE kept monetary policy unchanged. The U.S. dollar strengthened relative to many major currencies during July.

In August 2019, spread sectors weakened, as U.S.-China trade tensions and political developments in Argentina resulted in increased investor risk aversion. Global interest rates fell as hawkish trade rhetoric intensified, leading to market concerns about the outlook for global economic growth and, in turn, raising investor expectations for monetary policy easing. In the U.S., the economy added fewer jobs than consensus expected, while the Institute for Supply Management’s Manufacturing Index contracted for the first time since 2016. U.S. interest rates fell on market expectations for additional Fed monetary policy easing, with the 30-year U.S. Treasury yield dropping to its lowest level on record. The U.S. dollar appreciated slightly versus many major currencies during August.

Looking Ahead

At the end of the Reporting Period, we expected the U.S. economic expansion to continue, albeit at a slower pace, with strength in consumer spending and services offsetting weakness in business investment and the manufacturing sector. We anticipated additional monetary easing in the U.S. and other developed economies, including Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Switzerland. More broadly, we thought heightened political uncertainty and, in turn, downside economic growth risks would keep global central bank monetary policies accommodative for a prolonged period of time. This would be supportive for investor risk sentiment, in our view.

Global Equity Portfolio

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Quantitative Investment Strategies Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio’s (the “Portfolio”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Portfolio perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio’s Class A, Institutional, Class P and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of -1.78%, -1.46%, -1.45% and -1.54%, respectively. These returns compare to the -0.16% average annual total return of the Portfolio’s blended benchmark, the Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Composite Index (“EDGE Composite Index”), over the same time period. The components of the EDGE Composite Index — the MSCI All Country World Index (ACWI) Investable Market Index (“MSCI ACWI IMI”) (90%) and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (10%) — returned -4.39% and 10.17%, respectively, during the Reporting Period.

Q What key factors affected the Portfolio’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio’s strategic weightings detracted from its performance versus the EDGE Composite Index. (The strategic weightings are based upon Goldman Sachs Investment Strategy Group’s (“ISG”) assumptions regarding long-term expected returns, expected volatilities and expected correlations, as well as the investments views of Goldman Sachs ISG.) Our tactical asset allocation decisions (“tactical tilts”) also detracted from relative returns. The overall performance of the Underlying Funds contributed positively to the Fund’s relative results during the Reporting Period.

Q How were the Portfolio’s tactical asset allocation decisions managed during the Reporting Period?

A In keeping with our investment process, we implement tactical tilts, based on Goldman Sachs ISG’s views about near-term expected market returns, in an attempt to enhance performance. These tactical tilts are implemented through an investment in the Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund (the “Underlying Tactical Fund”), which seeks long-term total return through the implementation of investment ideas that are generally derived from short-term or medium-term market views on a variety of asset classes and instruments. As mentioned previously, the Portfolio’s tactical tilts detracted from its performance during the Reporting Period.

Q How did the Portfolio’s Underlying Funds perform relative to their respective benchmark indices during the Reporting Period?

A To implement strategic weightings and our tactical tilts, the Portfolio invests in 10 Underlying Funds. Nine of these Underlying Funds may be used to implement strategic weightings (“Underlying Strategic Funds”). The Underlying Tactical Fund, as mentioned previously, is used to implement tactical tilts.

During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio was invested in eight of the nine Underlying Strategic Funds, six of which underperformed their respective benchmark indices. (The Portfolio did not have an allocation to the Goldman Sachs Core Fixed Income Fund during the Reporting Period.)

Two of the Underlying Strategic Funds that underperformed in relative terms — the Goldman Sachs U.S. Equity Dividend and Premium Fund and the Goldman Sachs International Equity Dividend and Premium Fund — are those in which the Portfolio invested a significant percentage of its equity allocation. The other Underlying Strategic Funds that underperformed their respective benchmark indices were the Goldman Sachs International Small Cap Insights Fund, the Goldman Sachs Small Cap Equity Insights Fund, the Goldman Sachs MLP Energy Infrastructure Fund and the Goldman Sachs Emerging Markets Equity Insights Fund.

The Goldman Sachs Global Real Estate Securities Fund and the Goldman Sachs Global Infrastructure Fund outperformed

their respective benchmark indices during the Reporting Period.

The Portfolio’s Underlying Tactical Fund underperformed its cash benchmark index¹ by more than 190 basis points² during the Reporting Period. (A basis point is 1/100^th of a percent.)

Q How did call writing affect performance?

A As mentioned above, the Portfolio’s two largest allocations were to the Goldman Sachs U.S. Equity Dividend and Premium Fund and the Goldman Sachs International Equity Dividend and Premium Fund, which earn premiums through an equity index call writing strategy. When equity markets are down, flat or modestly positive, these Underlying Strategic Funds tend to outperform their respective benchmark indices because of the premiums they earn from call writing. When equity markets rally strongly, these two Underlying Strategic Funds are likely to trail their respective benchmark indices. Although the Underlying Strategic Funds keep the premiums they earn from call writing, they can underperform when the call options are exercised.

During the Reporting Period, the call writing strategies of the Goldman Sachs U.S. Equity Dividend and Premium Fund detracted from its performance, as the U.S. equity market posted gains. On the positive side, the call writing strategies of the Goldman Sachs International Equity Dividend and Premium Fund added to its performance, as the international equity markets declined.

Q How did the Portfolio use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio employed Standard & Poor’s 500^® Index (“S&P 500^® Index”) futures as part of its strategic weightings in U.S. large-cap growth stocks and U.S. large-cap value stocks, which did not have a material impact on performance. The Portfolio also utilized forward foreign currency exchange contracts to take positions in the British pound, euro, Australian dollar, Swiss franc and Japanese yen. These particular currency hedging positions detracted from the Portfolio’s performance during the Reporting Period.

In addition, some of the Portfolio’s Underlying Funds, including the Portfolio’s Underlying Tactical Fund, used derivatives during the Reporting Period to apply their active investment views with greater versatility or to afford greater risk management precision. As market conditions warranted during the Reporting Period, some of these Underlying Funds engaged in forward foreign currency exchange contracts, financial futures contracts, options and swap contracts to enhance portfolio return and for hedging purposes.

Q What changes did you make during the Reporting Period within the Portfolio?

A No significant changes were made within the Portfolio during the Reporting Period.

Q What was the Portfolio’s strategy at the end of the Reporting Period?

A Going forward, we plan to maintain a diversified equity portfolio that implements our strategic and tactical views as we continue to seek long-term growth of capital and current income.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Quantitative Investment Strategies Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Tax-Advantaged Global Equity Portfolio’s (the “Portfolio”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Portfolio perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio’s Class A, Institutional, Class P and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of -4.96%, -4.61%, -4.60% and -4.57%, respectively. These returns compare to the -0.16% average annual total return of the Portfolio’s blended benchmark, the Tax-Advantaged Global Equity Composite Index (“TAG Composite Index”), over the same time period. The components of the TAG Composite Index — the MSCI All Country World Index (ACWI) Investable Market Index (“MSCI ACWI IMI”) (90%) and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (10%) — returned -4.39% and 10.17%, respectively, during the Reporting Period.

Q What key factors affected the Portfolio’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio’s strategic weightings detracted from its performance versus the TAG Composite Index. (The strategic weightings are based upon Goldman Sachs Investment Strategy Group’s (“ISG”) assumptions regarding long-term expected returns, expected volatilities and expected correlations, as well as the investments views of Goldman Sachs ISG.) Our tactical asset allocation decisions (“tactical tilts”) and the overall performance of the Underlying Funds also detracted from the Portfolio’s relative returns during the Reporting Period.

Q How were the Portfolio’s tactical asset allocation decisions managed during the Reporting Period?

A In keeping with our investment process, we implement tactical tilts, based on Goldman Sachs ISG’s views about near-term expected market returns, in an attempt to enhance performance. These tactical tilts are implemented through an investment in the Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund (the “Underlying Tactical Fund”), which seeks long-term total return through the implementation of investment ideas that are generally derived from short-term or medium-term market views on a variety of asset classes and instruments. As mentioned previously, the Portfolio’s tactical tilts detracted from performance during the Reporting Period.

Q How did the Portfolio’s Underlying Funds perform relative to their respective benchmark indices during the Reporting Period?

A To implement strategic weightings and our tactical tilts, the Portfolio invests in nine Underlying Funds. Eight of these Underlying Funds may be used to implement strategic asset allocation decisions (“Underlying Strategic Funds”). The Underlying Tactical Fund, as mentioned previously, is used to implement tactical tilts.

During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio was invested in seven of the eight Underlying Strategic Funds, five of which underperformed their respective benchmark indices. (The Portfolio did not have an allocation to the Goldman Sachs Core Fixed Income Fund during the Reporting Period.)

Two of the Underlying Strategic Funds that underperformed in relative terms — the Goldman Sachs U.S. Tax-Managed Equity Fund and the Goldman Sachs International Tax-Managed Equity Fund — are those in which the Portfolio held its largest weightings. The other Underlying Strategic Funds that underperformed their respective benchmark indices were the Goldman Sachs International Small Cap Insights Fund, the Goldman Sachs MLP Energy Infrastructure Fund and the Goldman Sachs Emerging Markets Equity Insights Fund.

The Goldman Sachs Global Real Estate Securities Fund and the Goldman Sachs Global Infrastructure Fund outperformed their respective benchmark indices during the Reporting Period.

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL TAX-AWARE EQUITY PORTFOLIOS

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2019

1. ORGANIZATION

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

Portfolio	Share Classes Offered	Diversified/ Non-diversified
Enhanced Dividend Global Equity and Tax-Advantaged Global Equity	A, Institutional, P and R6	Diversified

Class A Shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50%. Institutional, Class P and Class R6 Shares are not subject to a sales charge.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Portfolios pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust.

The Portfolios are expected to invest primarily in a combination of domestic and international equity and fixed income underlying funds (“Underlying Funds”) which are registered under the Act, for which GSAM acts as the investment adviser. Additionally, these Portfolios may invest a portion of their assets directly in other securities and instruments, including unaffiliated exchange traded funds.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

A.  Investment Valuation — The valuation policy of the Portfolios and Underlying Funds is to value investments at fair value.

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income, and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Distributions from master limited partnerships (“MLPs”) are generally recorded based on the characterization reported on the MLP’s tax return. The Goldman Sachs MLP Energy Infrastructure Fund (the “Underlying MLP Fund”) records its pro-rata share of the income/loss and capital gains/losses, allocated from the underlying partnerships and adjusts the cost basis of the underlying partnerships accordingly. Income distributions are recognized as capital gains or income in the financial statements in accordance with the character that is distributed.

For derivative contracts, realized gains and losses are recorded upon settlement of the contract.

C.  Class Allocations and Expenses — Investment income, realized and unrealized gain (loss), if any, and non-class specific expenses of each Portfolio are allocated daily based upon the proportion of net assets of each class. Non-class specific expenses directly incurred by a Portfolio are charged to that Portfolio, while such expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated across the applicable Portfolios on a straight-line and/or pro-rata basis depending upon the nature of the expenses. Class specific expenses, where applicable, are borne by the respective share classes and include Distribution and Service and Transfer Agency fees. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of each Portfolio and do not include any expenses associated with the Underlying Funds. Because the Underlying Funds have varied expense and fee levels and the Portfolios may own different proportions of the Underlying Funds at different times, the amount of fees and expenses incurred indirectly by each Portfolio will vary.

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL TAX-AWARE EQUITY PORTFOLIOS

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

August 31, 2019

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

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

Portfolio	Income Distributions Declared/Paid	Capital Gains Distributions Declared/Paid
Enhanced Dividend Global Equity	Quarterly	Annually
Tax-Advantaged Global Equity	Annually	Annually

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

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

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

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

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

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

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

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Portfolios, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have delegated to GSAM day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the

28

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL TAX-AWARE EQUITY PORTFOLIOS

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

Portfolios’ investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

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

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a U.S. securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities may be valued at the closing bid price for long positions and at the closing ask price for short positions. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2.

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

Underlying Funds (including Money Market Funds) — Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at the NAV per share on the day of valuation. Because the Portfolios invest primarily in other mutual funds that fluctuate in value, the Portfolios’ shares will correspondingly fluctuate in value. These investments are generally classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For information regarding an Underlying Fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Fund’s shareholder report.

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

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

i.  Forward Contracts — A forward contract is a contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a specified price on a future date. A forward contract settlement can occur on a cash or delivery basis. Forward contracts are marked-to-market

29

August 31, 2019

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

daily using independent vendor prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Cash and certain investments may be used to collateralize forward contracts.

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a forward contract in which a Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked-to-market daily at the applicable forward rate. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.

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

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

C.  Fair Value Hierarchy — The following is a summary of the Portfolios’ investments and derivatives classified in the fair value hierarchy as of August 31, 2019:

4. INVESTMENTS IN DERIVATIVES (continued)

The following tables set forth, by certain risk types, the Portfolios’ gains (losses) related to these derivatives and their indicative volumes for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019. These gains (losses) should be considered in the context that these derivative contracts may have been executed to create investment opportunities and/or economically hedge certain investments, and accordingly, certain gains (losses) on such derivative contracts may offset certain (losses) gains attributable to investments. These gains (losses) are included in “Net realized gain (loss)” or “Net change in unrealized gain (loss)” on the Statements of Operations:

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A.  Management Agreement — Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Portfolios, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Portfolios’ business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of 0.15% of each Portfolio’s average daily net assets. GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee in order to achieve an effective net rate of 0.08% as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets of each Portfolio through at least December 28, 2019, and prior to such date, GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees.

B.  Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Plan — The Trust, on behalf of Class A Shares of each Portfolio, has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, Goldman Sachs, which serves as distributor (the “Distributor”), is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services and personal and account maintenance services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A Shares of the Portfolios.

32

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL TAX-AWARE EQUITY PORTFOLIOS

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued)

C.  Distribution Agreement — Goldman Sachs, as Distributor of the shares of the Portfolios pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, may retain a portion of the Class A Shares’ front end sales charge. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, Goldman Sachs retained front-end sales charges of $1,990 and $385 for the Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio and Tax-Advantaged Global Equity Portfolio, respectively.

D.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Portfolios for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates as follows: 0.17% of the average daily net assets of Class A Shares; 0.03% of the average daily net assets of Class P and Class R6 Shares; and 0.04% of the average daily net assets of Institutional Shares. Prior to July 1, 2019, the annual rate was 0.18% of the average daily net assets of Class A Shares.

E.  Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Portfolios (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, service fees and shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Portfolios are not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. The Other Expense limitations as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets for the Portfolios is 0.014%. These Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least December 28, 2019 and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees. In addition, the Portfolios have entered into certain offset arrangements with the custodian and the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Portfolios’ expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, these expense reductions, including any fee waivers and Other Expense reimbursements, were as follows:

Portfolio	Management Fee Waiver		Other Expense Reimbursement		Custody Fee Credits		Total Expense Reductions
Enhanced Dividend Global Equity	$	435,816	$	358,808	$	23,058	$	817,682
Tax-Advantaged Global Equity		1,910,398		398,582		97,374		2,406,354

F.  Line of Credit Facility — As of August 31, 2019, the Portfolios participated in a $580,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and certain registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Portfolios based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the Portfolios did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 30, 2019 the facility was $770,000,000.

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

8. OTHER RISKS

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

Derivatives Risk — The Portfolios’ use of derivatives may result in loss. Derivative instruments, which may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in securities, currencies or other instruments, may be illiquid or less liquid, volatile, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes in the value of the underlying instruments may produce disproportionate losses to the Portfolios. Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligation. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with investments in more traditional securities and instruments. Losses from derivatives can also result from a lack of correlation between changes in the value of derivative instruments and the portfolio assets (if any) being hedged.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

August 31, 2019

8. OTHER RISKS (continued)

Energy Sector Risk — The Underlying MLP Fund concentrates its investments in the energy sector, and will therefore be susceptible to adverse economic, environmental, business, regulatory or other occurrences affecting that sector. The energy sector has historically experienced substantial price volatility. MLPs and other companies operating in the energy sector are subject to specific risks, including, among others: fluctuations in commodity prices; reduced consumer demand for commodities such as oil, natural gas or petroleum products; reduced availability of natural gas or other commodities for transporting, processing, storing or delivering; slowdowns in new construction; extreme weather or other natural disasters; and threats of attack by terrorists on energy assets. Additionally, changes in the regulatory environment for energy companies may adversely impact their profitability. Over time, depletion of natural gas reserves and other energy reserves may also affect the profitability of energy companies.

Foreign and Emerging Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the U.S. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation, less public information and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which a Portfolio or an Underlying Fund invests. The imposition of exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscations of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the U.S. or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which a Portfolio or an Underlying Fund has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. To the extent that a Portfolio or an Underlying Fund also invests in securities of issuers located in emerging markets, these risks may be more pronounced.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, including an exchange traded fund (“ETF”), a Portfolio will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Portfolio. ETFs are subject to risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including but not limited to the following: (i) the market price of the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or a discount to their NAV; and (ii) an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained.

Investments in the Underlying Funds — The Portfolios invest primarily in a combination of Underlying Funds, and are subject to the risk factors associated with the investments of those Underlying Funds in direct proportion to the amount of assets allocated to each. As of August 31, 2019, the Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio invested 44.1% and 21.3% of its net assets in the Goldman Sachs U.S. Equity Dividend and Premium Fund (the “U.S. Equity Dividend and Premium Fund”) and the Goldman Sachs International Equity Dividend and Premium Fund (the “International Equity Dividend and Premium Fund”), respectively. Because of the high concentration of its assets in these Underlying Funds, the Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio has greater exposure to the risks associated with these Underlying Funds than it does to the risks associated with the other Underlying Funds in which it invests. The U.S. Equity Dividend and Premium Fund invests primarily in dividend paying equity investments in large-capitalization U.S. issuers, with public stock market capitalizations within the range of the market capitalization of the S&P 500^® Index at the time of investment. This Underlying Fund expects that, under normal circumstances, it will write (sell) call options on the S&P 500^® Index or related exchange-traded funds in an amount that is between 20% and 75% of the value of its portfolio. The International Equity Dividend and Premium Fund invests primarily in dividend-paying equity investments in non-U.S. issuers with public stock market capitalizations within the range of capitalization of the Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) Europe, Australasia, Far East (“EAFE”) Index (“MSCI EAFE Index”) at the time of investment. This Underlying Fund expects that, under normal circumstances, it will write (sell) call options on the MSCI EAFE Index, other national or regional stock market indices or related exchange-traded funds in an amount that is between 20% and 75% of the value of its portfolio.

As of August 31, 2019, the Tax-Advantaged Global Equity Portfolio invested 51.9% and 21.3% of its net assets in the Goldman Sachs U.S. Tax-Managed Equity Fund (the “U.S. Tax-Managed Equity Fund”) and the Goldman Sachs International Tax-Managed Equity Fund (the “International Tax-Managed Equity Fund”), respectively. Because of the high concentration of its assets in these Underlying Funds, the Tax-Advantaged Global Equity Portfolio has greater exposure to the risks associated with

38

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL TAX-AWARE EQUITY PORTFOLIOS

8. OTHER RISKS (continued)

these Underlying Funds than it does to the risks associated with the other Underlying Funds in which it invests. The U.S. Tax-Managed Equity Fund invests primarily in equity investments in U.S. issuers. This Underlying Fund will seek to maintain risk, style, capitalization and industry characteristics similar to the Russell 3000 Index. The International Tax-Managed Equity Fund invests primarily in equity investments in non-U.S. issuers. This Underlying Fund will seek to maintain risk, style, capitalization and industry characteristics similar to the MSCI EAFE Index. The investment adviser may seek tax-efficiency by offsetting gains and losses, limiting portfolio turnover or selling high tax basis securities for both Underlying Funds.

The Portfolios do not invest in the Underlying Funds for the purpose of exercising management or control; however, investments by the Portfolios within their principal investment strategies may represent a significant portion of an Underlying Fund’s net assets.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Portfolio or an Underlying Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include a Portfolio or an Underlying Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Portfolio or an Underlying Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause a Portfolio or an Underlying Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact a Portfolio’s or an Underlying Fund’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Portfolio’s or an Underlying Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Portfolio’s or the Underlying Fund’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Portfolio or Underlying Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Portfolio’s or an Underlying Fund’s performance to the extent that the Portfolio or the Underlying Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Liquidity Risk — An Underlying Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that a Portfolio or Underlying Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, a Portfolio or Underlying Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. If a Portfolio or Underlying Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect the Portfolio’s or Underlying Fund’s NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. Liquidity risk may be the result of, among other things, the reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities or the lack of an active market. The potential for liquidity risk may be magnified by a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income mutual funds may be higher than normal, potentially causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity. These risks may be more pronounced in connection with a Portfolio’s or Underlying Fund’s investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on a Portfolio’s or Underlying Fund’s liquidity.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, a Portfolio and an Underlying Fund trade financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). Additionally, a Portfolio and/or an Underlying Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Portfolio and the Underlying Fund have unsettled or open transactions defaults.

9. INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act and state law, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolios. Additionally,

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

August 31, 2019

9. INDEMNIFICATIONS (continued)

in the course of business, the Portfolios enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolios’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolios that have not yet occurred. However, GSAM believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

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

Report of Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio and Goldman Sachs Tax-Advantaged Global Equity Portfolio

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Goldman Sachs Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio and Goldman Sachs Tax-Advantaged Global Equity Portfolio (two of the portfolios constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Portfolios”) as of August 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended August 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019, 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 Portfolios as of August 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019 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 Portfolios’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolios’ 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 Portfolios 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 August 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent 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.

Portfolio Expenses — Six Month Period Ended  August 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Class A, Institutional, Class P or Class R6 Shares of a Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments (with respect to Class A Shares), and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (with respect to Class A Shares); and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class A, Institutional, Class P and Class R6 Shares of the Portfolios 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 from March 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019, which represents a period of 184 days of a 365 day year.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolios’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolios’ 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 Portfolios and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees and do not include expenses of Underlying Funds in which the Portfolios invest. 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.

* Expenses are calculated using each Portfolio’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended August 31, 2019. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL TAX-AWARE EQUITY PORTFOLIOS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio and Goldman Sachs Tax-Advantaged Global Equity Portfolio (the “Portfolios”) are investment portfolios of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Portfolios at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Portfolios.

The Management Agreement was most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2020 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 11-12, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”).

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

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

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

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

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

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

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

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

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

(d) the terms of the Management Agreement and other agreements with affiliated service providers entered into by the Trust on behalf of the Portfolio;

(e) fee and expense information for the Portfolio, including:

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

(ii) the Portfolio’s expense trends over time; and

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

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

(g) the undertakings of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations with respect to the Portfolio and the Underlying Funds;

44

GOLDMAN SACHS GLOBAL TAX-AWARE EQUITY PORTFOLIOS

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

(h) information relating to the profitability of the Management Agreement and the transfer agency and distribution and service arrangements of the Portfolio to the Investment Adviser and its affiliates;

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

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

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

(l) with respect to the applicable Underlying Funds, information regarding commissions paid by the Underlying Equity Funds and broker oversight, an update on the Investment Adviser’s soft dollars practices, other information regarding portfolio trading, and how the Investment Adviser carries out its duty to seek best execution

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Portfolios and the Underlying Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Portfolio and each Underlying Fund to its peers using rankings and ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2018, and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser using the peer group identified by the Outside Data Provider as of March 31, 2019. The information on each Portfolio’s investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, five, and ten-year periods ending on the applicable dates. The Trustees also reviewed each Portfolio’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Portfolios over time, and reviewed the investment performance of each Portfolio in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions.

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

The Trustees observed that the Tax-Advantaged Global Equity Portfolio’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of its peer group for the ten-year period and in the third quartile for the one- three-, and five-year periods, and had outperformed the Portfolio’s benchmark index for the ten-year period and underperformed for the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended March 31, 2019. They observed that the Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of its peer group for the one-year period and in the third quartile for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods, and had outperformed the Portfolio’s benchmark index for the one-year period and underperformed for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods ended March 31, 2019. The Trustees noted that the Enhanced Dividend Global Equity Portfolio had certain significant differences from its peer group that caused the peer group to be an imperfect basis for comparison.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

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

In particular, the Trustees reviewed analyses prepared by the Outside Data Provider regarding the expense rankings of the Portfolios. The analyses provided a comparison of each Portfolio’s management fee to those of a relevant peer group and category universe; an expense analysis which compared each Portfolio’s overall net and gross expenses to a peer group and a category universe; and data comparing each Portfolio’s net expenses to the peer and category medians. The analyses also compared each Portfolio’s other expenses and fee waivers/reimbursements to those of the peer group and category medians. The Trustees concluded that the comparisons provided by the Outside Data Provider were useful in evaluating the reasonableness of the management fees and total expenses paid by the Portfolios.

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations with respect to the Portfolio and the Underlying Funds. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Portfolios, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Portfolios differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

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

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed each Portfolio’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Portfolio and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should

46

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

be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for each Portfolio was provided for 2018 and 2017, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Portfolios. The Trustees noted that, although the Portfolios themselves do not have breakpoints in their management fee schedules, any benefits of the breakpoints in the management fee schedules of certain Underlying Funds, when reached, would pass through to the shareholders in the Portfolios at the specified asset levels. The Trustees considered the amounts of assets in the Portfolios; the Portfolios’ recent purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and the profits realized by them; information comparing the fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer groups; and the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to waive a portion of its management fee and to limit certain expenses of the Portfolios and Underlying Funds that exceed specified levels. They also considered the services provided to the Portfolios under the Management Agreement and the fees and expenses borne by the Underlying Funds, and determined that the management fees payable by the Portfolios were not duplicative of the management fees paid at the Underlying Fund level.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Portfolios and/or the Underlying Funds as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”); (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities and futures transactions on behalf of certain Underlying Funds; (c) research received by the Investment Adviser from broker-dealers in exchange for executing certain transactions on behalf of certain Underlying Funds; (d) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Underlying Funds with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (e) fees earned by Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, as securities lending agent for certain Underlying Funds (and fees earned by the Investment Adviser for managing the fund in which certain Underlying Funds’ cash collateral is invested); (f) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Portfolios and the Underlying Funds on behalf of its other clients; (g) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Portfolio shareholders; (h) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Portfolio Distributor; (i) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Portfolios and Underlying Funds; and (j) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Portfolios’ and Underlying Funds’ third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Portfolios and Their Shareholders

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

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by each of the Portfolios were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser’s costs and each Portfolio’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Adviser’s continued management likely would benefit each Portfolio and its shareholders and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to each Portfolio until June 30, 2020.

The reports concerning the Portfolios included in this shareholder report may contain certain forward-looking statements about the factors that may affect the performance of the Portfolios in the future.

Management believes these forward-looking statements to be reasonable, although they are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict.

The Goldman Sachs Investor Funds seek to maximize current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity by investing exclusively in high quality money market instruments. The Goldman Sachs Investor Money Market Fund pursues this investment objective by investing in U.S. government securities, obligations of banks (which may exceed 25% of its total assets), commercial paper and other short-term obligations of U.S. companies, states, municipalities and other entities, and repurchase agreements (“repos”). It may also invest in U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of foreign banks, foreign companies and foreign governments. The Goldman Sachs Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund pursues the investment objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets in securities issued by or on behalf of states, territories and possessions of the U.S. and their political subdivisions, agencies, authorities and instrumentalities, and the District of Columbia. It may also invest in short-term taxable instruments, including repos with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, for temporary investment purposes.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Money Market Portfolio Management Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Investor Funds’ (the “Funds”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q What economic and market factors most influenced the money markets as a whole during the Reporting Period?

A Taxable and tax-exempt money market yields ended the Reporting Period slightly higher than they started, as the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) shifted its monetary policy stance. After raising the targeted federal funds rate in September and December 2018, Fed policymakers pivoted to a more accommodative stance, leaving it unchanged until July 2019, when they implemented an interest rate cut. Other influences on the taxable and tax-exempt money markets during the Reporting Period were the continuation of the Fed’s balance sheet normalization and the dovish stance of most developed markets’ central banks. (Balance sheet normalization refers to the steps the Fed is taking to reverse quantitative easing and remove the substantial monetary accommodation it has provided to the economy since the financial crisis began in 2007. Dovish tends to imply lower interest rates; opposite of hawkish.)

When the Reporting Period started in September 2018, U.S. economic growth was robust, though some major economies, including those of the Eurozone, the U.K. and China, exhibited a gradual weakening trend. The Fed raised the targeted federal funds rate by 25 basis points, citing ongoing strength in the U.S. labor market and a pickup in household spending and business fixed investment. (A basis point is 1/100th of a percentage point.) The Fed’s dot plot pointed to another interest rate increase by the end of 2018 and three more during 2019. (The “dot plot” shows rate projections of the members of the Fed’s Open Market Committee.) Fed Chair Jerome Powell delivered an upbeat assessment of the U.S. economy, which supported market expectations for these additional Fed rate hikes in 2019. In December 2018, Fed policymakers raised the targeted federal funds rate by an additional 25 basis points, much as the market had expected, but lowered their projection for 2019 monetary policy tightening from three rate hikes to two.

In the first quarter of 2019, the Fed kept its monetary policy unchanged, with its dot plot projecting no interest rate hikes at all during 2019. The U.S. economy continued to benefit from strength in household consumption, which was underpinned by a healthy labor market. During the second calendar quarter, the Fed remained on hold and noted that inflation softness might be due to “transitory factors.” Meanwhile, market speculation about possible 2019 Fed rate cuts increased due to an accumulation of factors, including soft inflation, weakness in U.S. economic data, continued global economic growth headwinds from unresolved U.S.-China trade negotiations and weakness in the manufacturing sector. In June 2019, eight of the 12 members on the Federal Open Market Committee projected interest rate cuts during the 2019 calendar year. Indeed, at its July policy meeting, the Fed delivered its first interest rate cut since 2008, with Fed Chair Powell describing it as a “mid-cycle adjustment.” The Fed also announced it would stop its balance sheet normalization at the end of September 2019, two months

earlier than expected. In August 2019, as U.S. economic data showed signs of weakness and U.S.-China trade tensions persisted, market expectations for additional Fed rate cuts increased. In this environment, the U.S. Treasury yield curve partially inverted. (Yield curve is a spectrum of interest rates based on maturities of varying lengths.) More specifically, the spread, or differential, between the yields on two-year and 10-year U.S. Treasury securities inverted for the first time since 2007, meaning yields on two-year maturities were higher than those of 10-year U.S. Treasury securities. (A full inversion occurs when shorter-term yields exceed all longer-term yields.)

In the tax-exempt money markets, investment inflows increased slightly, from approximately $130 billion on August 30, 2018 to approximately $135 billion on August 30, 2019. During the Reporting Period overall, the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) Municipal Swap Index, representing seven-day tax-exempt variable rate demand obligations, fell 28 basis points, from 1.56% on August 31, 2018 to 1.28% on August 30, 2019. At the end of the Reporting Period, the ratio of the SIFMA Municipal Swap Index to three-month LIBOR was approximately 64% compared to its more than 60% average since 1998. (LIBOR, or the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate, is the interest rate that banks charge each other for short-term loans.)

Q What key factors were responsible for the performance of the Funds during the Reporting Period?

A The yields of the Goldman Sachs Investor Money Market Fund (“the taxable Fund”) and the Goldman Sachs Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund (“the tax-exempt Fund”) rose during the Reporting Period, driven by the increase in money market yields, which occurred primarily because of the economic and market factors discussed above. The taxable money market yield curve inverted, while the tax-exempt yield curve flattened during the Reporting Period. (A flattening yield curve is one wherein the differential in yields between longer-term and shorter-term maturities narrows; opposite of a steepening yield curve.)

Q How did you manage the taxable Fund during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the taxable Fund had investments in commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper, repurchase agreements (“repos”), government agency securities, U.S. Treasury securities, time deposits, certificates of deposit, short-term corporate obligations, municipal debt, floating rate securities and variable rate demand notes (“VRDNs”).

Rather consistent clarity from the Fed around potential September and December 2018 interest rate hikes led us to maintain a somewhat short weighted average maturity of between 32 and 40 days in the taxable Fund during the first four months of the Reporting Period. Purchases were focused on floating rate securities, asset-backed commercial paper and government agency securities, all of which helped us to manage duration. (Duration is the taxable Fund’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates). After the December 2018 rate hike, the Fed’s path became less clear to us. As a result, we lengthened the weighted average maturity of the taxable Fund to between 51 and 55 days during January and February 2019. During March through July 2019, amid signs the Fed might cut interest rates, we shortened the weighted average maturity of the taxable Fund to between 49 and 42 days. In August 2019, we targeted a weighted average maturity in the taxable Fund of 41 days. Purchases were focused on government agency repos during the last eight months of the Reporting Period.

The weighted average maturity of a money market fund is a measure of its price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Also known as effective maturity, weighted average maturity measures the weighted average of the maturity date of bonds held by a Fund, taking into consideration any available maturity shortening features.

Q How did you manage the tax-exempt Fund during the Reporting Period?

A The tax-exempt Fund had investments in VRDNs, short-term tax-exempt securities, non-financial tax-exempt commercial paper and other municipal securities during the Reporting Period.

During the first four months of the Reporting Period, we maintained a rather short weighted average maturity of between 14 and 20 days in the tax-exempt Fund in response to the Fed’s interest rate hikes. We extended the weighted average maturity of the tax-exempt Fund to between 23 and 25 days during January and February 2019. Overall, the tax-exempt Fund’s positioning was driven largely by the relative value of securities in the front, or short-term, end of the tax-exempt money market yield curve. Given the market’s muted expectations for Fed rate hikes in 2019 and the flatter tax-exempt money market yield curve, we looked for opportunities to extend the tax-exempt Fund’s duration,

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

while maintaining adequate liquidity to take advantage of opportunities driven by market technicals (or supply and demand dynamics). During March through May 2019, we managed the tax-exempt Fund’s weighted average maturity in a range between 21 days and 27 days given uncertainty about future Fed monetary policy action. In June 2019, we extended the weighted average maturity of the tax-exempt Fund, maintaining it in a range of between 31 days and 36 days from June through August 2019. During the last eight months of the Reporting Period, purchases were focused on non-financial company commercial paper.

Q How did you manage the Funds’ weighted average life during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we managed the weighted average life of the taxable and tax-exempt Funds below 120 days. In the taxable Fund, we maintained a weighted average life in a range between 90 days and 113 days. In the tax-exempt Fund, we maintained a weighted average life in a range between 15 days and 30 days. The weighted average life of a money market fund is a measure of a money market fund’s price sensitivity to changes in liquidity and/or credit risk.

Under amendments to SEC Rule 2a-7 that became effective in May 2010, the maximum allowable weighted average life of a money market fund is 120 days. While one of the goals of the SEC’s money market fund rule is to reinforce conservative investment practices across the money market fund industry, our security selection process has long emphasized conservative investment choices.

Q Did you make any changes to the Funds’ portfolios during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, we made adjustments to the Funds’ weighted average maturities and their allocations to specific investments based on then-current market conditions, our near-term view and anticipated and actual Fed monetary policy statements.

Q What is the Funds’ tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

A At the end of the Reporting Period, we expected the U.S. economic expansion to continue, albeit at a slower pace, with strength in consumer spending and services offsetting weakness in business investment and the manufacturing sector. Overall, we expected inflation to remain muted, with economic weakness tempering upside inflation pressures. Regarding the Fed’s monetary policy, we expected the U.S. central bank to deliver “insurance interest rate cuts” during the final months of 2019 due to slowing U.S. economic growth against a backdrop of subdued inflation and elevated geopolitical uncertainty.

Overall, the taxable and tax-exempt Funds continue to be flexibly guided by shifting market conditions, and we have positioned them to seek to take advantage of anticipated interest rate movements. As always, we intend to continue to use our actively managed approach to seek the best possible return within the framework of our Funds’ investment guidelines and objectives. In addition, we will continue to manage interest, liquidity and credit risk daily. We will also continue to closely monitor economic data, Fed policy and any shifts in the taxable and tax-exempt money market yield curves, as we strive to navigate the interest rate environment.

¹  The Money Market Fund offers seven separate classes of shares (Class I, Administration, Service, Resource, Cash Management, Class A and Class C Shares) and the Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund offers eleven separate classes of shares (Class I, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource, Cash Management, Class A and Class C Shares), each of which is subject to different fees and expenses that affect performance and entitles shareholders to different services. The Class I Shares do not have distribution and/or service (12b-1) or administration and/or service (non-12b-1) fees. The Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource, Cash Management, Class A and Class C Shares offer financial institutions the opportunity to receive fees for providing certain distribution, administrative support and/or shareholder services (as applicable). As an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, these share classes pay combined distribution and/or service (12b-1) or administration and/or service (non-12b-1) fees (as applicable) at the following contractual rates: Select Shares pay 0.03%, Preferred Shares pay 0.10%, Capital Shares pay 0.15%, Administration Shares pay 0.25%, Premier Shares pay 0.35%, Service Shares pay 0.50%, Resource Shares pay 0.65%, Cash Management Shares pay 0.80%, Class A Shares pay 0.25%, and Class C Shares pay 1.00%. If these fees were reflected in the above performance, performance would have been reduced. In addition, the Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.

² The investment adviser may contractually agree to waive or reimburse certain fees and expenses until a specified date. The investment adviser may also voluntarily waive certain fees and expenses, and such voluntary waivers may be discontinued or modified at any time without notice. The performance shown above reflects any waivers or reimbursements that were in effect for all or a portion of the periods shown.

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — INVESTOR FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2019

1. ORGANIZATION

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

Fund	Share Classes Offered	Diversified/ Non-Diversified
Investor Money Market	Class I, Administration, Service, Resource, Cash Management, Class A and Class C	Diversified
Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market	Class I, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource, Cash Management, Class A and Class C	Diversified

Class C Shares may typically be acquired only in an exchange for Class C Shares of another Goldman Sachs Fund. Class C Shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00% during the first 12 months, measured from the time the original shares subject to the CDSC were acquired.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to management agreements (the “Agreements”) with the Trust.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

A.  Investment Valuation — The investment valuation policy of the Funds is to use the amortized-cost method permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the Act for valuing portfolio securities. The amortized-cost method of valuation involves valuing a security at its cost and thereafter applying a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. Normally, a security’s amortized cost will approximate its market value. Under procedures and tolerances approved by the Board of Trustees (“Trustees”), GSAM evaluates daily the difference between each Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share using the amortized costs of its portfolio securities and the Fund’s NAV per share using market-based values of its portfolio securities. The market-based value of a portfolio security is determined, where readily available, on the basis of market quotations provided by pricing services or securities dealers, or, where accurate market quotations are not readily available, on the basis of the security’s fair value as determined in accordance with Valuation Procedures approved by the Trustees. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which may consider (among other things): (i) yield or price with respect to debt securities that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value.

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost.

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

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

D.  Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies (mutual funds) and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable and tax-exempt income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Funds are not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are declared and recorded daily and paid monthly by the Funds and may include short-term capital gains. Long-term capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid at least annually. A Fund may defer or accelerate the timing of the distribution of short-term capital gains (or any portion thereof).

Net capital losses, if any, are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.

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

E.  Forward Commitments — A forward commitment involves entering into a contract to purchase or sell securities, typically on an extended settlement basis, for a fixed price at a future date. The purchase of securities on a forward commitment basis involves a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines before the settlement date. Conversely, the sale of securities on a forward commitment basis involves the risk that the value of the securities sold may increase before the settlement date. Although a Fund will generally purchase securities on a forward commitment basis with the intention of acquiring the securities for its portfolio, the Fund may dispose of forward commitments prior to settlement which may result in a realized gain or loss.

F.  Repurchase Agreements — Repurchase agreements involve the purchase of securities subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). During the term of a repurchase agreement, the value of the underlying securities held as collateral on behalf of a Fund, including accrued interest, is required to exceed the value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest. The gross value of repurchase agreements is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held at the Funds’ custodian or designated sub-custodians under tri-party repurchase agreements.

An MRA governs transactions between a Fund and select counterparties. An MRA contains provisions for, among other things, initiation of the transaction, income payments, events of default, and maintenance of securities for repurchase agreements. An MRA also permits offsetting with collateral to create one single net payment in the event of default or similar events, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of a counterparty.

If the seller defaults, a Fund could suffer a loss to the extent that the proceeds from the sale of the underlying securities and other collateral held by the Fund are less than the repurchase price and the Fund’s costs associated with delay and enforcement of the repurchase agreement. In addition, in the event of default or insolvency of the seller, a court could determine that a Fund’s interest in the collateral is not enforceable, resulting in additional losses to the Fund.

Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and terms and conditions contained therein, the Funds, together with other funds of the Trust and registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates, may transfer uninvested cash into joint accounts, the daily aggregate balance of which is invested in one or more repurchase agreements. Under these joint accounts, the Funds maintain pro-rata credit exposure to the underlying repurchase agreements’ counterparties. With the exception of certain transaction fees, the Funds are not subject to any expenses in relation to these investments.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

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

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

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

The Trustees have approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Funds, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have delegated to GSAM day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation (including both the amortized cost and market-based methods of valuation) of the Funds’ investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies related to the market-based method of valuation, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

As of August 31, 2019, all investments are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Please refer to the Schedules of Investments for further detail.

4. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A.  Management Agreements — Under the Agreements, GSAM manages the Funds, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreements, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Funds’ business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

B.  Administration, Service and/or Shareholder Administration Plans — The Trust, on behalf of each applicable Fund, has adopted Administration, Service and/or Shareholder Administration Plans (the “Plans”) to allow Class C, Select, Preferred, Capital, Administration, Premier, Service, Resource and Cash Management Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing varying levels of account administration and/or personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Plans provide for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets of such shares.

C.  Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Plans — The Trust, on behalf of Class A Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, Goldman Sachs, which serves as distributor (the “Distributor”), is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services and personal and account maintenance services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of Class C, Resource and Cash Management Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted Distribution Plans subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution Plans, Goldman Sachs as Distributor is entitled to a fee accrued

daily and paid monthly for distribution services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C, Resource and Cash Management Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of the Service Shares of each applicable Fund, has adopted a Service Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act to allow Service Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan provides for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Service Shares of the Funds, as set forth below.

D.  Distribution Agreement — Goldman Sachs, as Distributor of the shares of the Funds pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, may retain a portion of the Class C Shares’ CDSC. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, Goldman Sachs has advised that it did not retain any CDSCs with respect to Class C Shares of the Funds.

E.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Funds for a fee pursuant to a Transfer Agency Agreement. The fee charged for such transfer agency services is accrued daily and paid monthly and is equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

F.  Other Agreements — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Funds (excluding transfer agency fees and expenses, administration fees (as applicable), service fees (as applicable), shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, 0.014% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. These Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least December 29, 2019, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees.

In addition, the Funds have entered into certain offset arrangements with the custodian and the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Funds’ expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

4. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued)

Fund Effective Net Expenses (After Waivers and Reimbursements)

The investment adviser may contractually agree to waive or reimburse certain fees and expenses until a specified date. The investment adviser may also voluntarily waive certain fees and expenses, and such voluntary waivers may be discontinued or modified at any time without notice.

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, GSAM and Goldman Sachs (as applicable) agreed to waive all or a portion of the respective class-specific fees described above attributable to the Funds. The Funds are not obligated to reimburse GSAM or Goldman Sachs for prior fiscal year fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, expense reductions including any fee waivers and Other Expense reimbursements were as follows (in thousands):

Fund	Distribution, Administration, Service and/or Shareholder Administration Plans Fee Waivers			Other Expense Reimbursements		Total Expense Reductions

Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market		—	*		267,910		267,910

* Amount less than one thousand.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the net effective management fee rate for each of the Funds was 0.16%.

H.  Other Transactions with Affiliates — A Fund may purchase securities from, or sell securities to, an affiliated fund provided the affiliation is solely due to having a common investment adviser, common officers, or common Trustees.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the purchase and sale transactions and related net realized gain (loss) for the Funds with affiliated funds in compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the Act were as follows:

This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Funds based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the Funds did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 30, 2019 the facility was $770,000,000.

6. OTHER RISKS

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

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients) and individuals, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV and liquidity. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, a Fund’s yield will tend to be lower than prevailing market rates, and the market value of its securities or instruments may also be adversely affected. A low interest rate environment poses additional risks to a Fund, because low yields on the Fund’s portfolio holdings may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s ability to provide a positive yield to its shareholders, pay expenses out of Fund assets, or, at times, maintain a stable $1.00 share price. The risks associated with changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets and a Fund’s investments. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Funds.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, the Funds trade financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which a Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Geographic and Sector Risk — The Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund may invest a significant portion of its total assets in certain issuers within the same state, geographic region or economic sector, which may subject the value of the Fund’s investments to risks associated with an adverse economic, business, political or environmental development affecting that state, region or sector.

Credit/Default Risk — An issuer or guarantor of a security held by a Fund, or a bank or other financial institution that has entered into a repurchase agreement with the Fund, may default on its obligation to pay interest and repay principal or default on any other obligation. Additionally, the credit quality of securities may deteriorate rapidly, which may impair a Fund’s liquidity and cause significant deterioration in NAV.

7. INDEMNIFICATIONS

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

8. OTHER MATTERS

Exemptive Orders — Pursuant to SEC exemptive orders, the Funds may enter into certain principal transactions, including repurchase agreements, with Goldman Sachs.

Report of Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Investor Money Market Fund and Goldman Sachs Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund:

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Goldman Sachs Investor Money Market Fund and Goldman Sachs Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund (two of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of August 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended August 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019, 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 August 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019 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 August 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent 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.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended  August 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Class I Shares, Select Shares, Preferred Shares, Capital Shares, Administration Shares, Premier Shares, Service Shares, Resource Shares, Cash Management Shares, Class A Shares, or Class C Shares of a Fund you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including contingent deferred sales charges (with respect to Class C Shares); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and distribution, service, administration and/or shareholder administration fees (with respect to all share classes except Class I Shares) and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class I Shares, Select Shares, Preferred Shares, Capital Shares, Administration Shares, Premier Shares, Service Shares, Resource Shares, Cash Management Shares, Class A Shares, or Class C Shares of the Funds 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 from March 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019, which represents a period of 184 days in a 365-day year.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each Share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ 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 Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. 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.

Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)		1,000.00		1,019.31	+		5.96

* Expenses for each share class are calculated using the Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended August 31, 2019. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

Fund	Class I Shares			Administration Shares			Service Shares			Resource Shares			Cash Management Shares			Class A Shares			Class C Shares
Investor Money Market		0.18	%		0.43	%		0.68	%		0.80	%		0.98	%		0.43	%		1.17	%

+ Hypothetical expenses are based on the Fund’s actual annualized net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses.

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — INVESTOR FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Investor Money Market Fund and Goldman Sachs Investor Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund (the “Funds”) are investment portfolios of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Funds at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Funds.

The Management Agreement was most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2020 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 11-12, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”).

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

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, including information about:

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

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

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

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

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

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

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

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

(e) fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

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

(ii) the Fund’s expense trends over time; and

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

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

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

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

(i) whether the Fund’s existing management fee adequately addressed any economies of scale;

56

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — INVESTOR FUNDS

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

(j) a summary of the “fall-out” benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund, including the fees received by the Investment Adviser’s affiliates from the Fund for transfer agency, distribution and other services;

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) information regarding portfolio trading and how the Investment Adviser carries out its duty to seek best execution;

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Fund to its peers using rankings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2018. The information on each Fund’s investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ending on the applicable dates, to the extent that each Fund had been in existence for those periods.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Funds’ risk profiles, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — INVESTOR FUNDS

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

The Trustees considered the performance of the Funds in light of their respective investment policies and strategies. They noted that, although the Funds had operated in a challenging yield environment since 2009, yields had improved, thereby reducing the amount of fees waived and/or reimbursed by the Investment Adviser. They also acknowledged the uncertainty of the future interest rate environment. The Trustees considered that, during the relevant period, the Investment Adviser had reimbursed expenses for the Funds, in order to maintain competitive yields. They observed that the Investment Adviser had previously made certain contractual management fee waivers permanent in February 2018, lowering the Funds’ contractual management fee. They also acknowledged the growth of the Funds in recent periods. The Trustees also considered that each Fund had maintained a stable net asset value per share. In light of these considerations, the Trustees believed that the Funds were providing investment performance within a competitive range for investors.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

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

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

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations. They noted that the Investment Adviser and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”) had reimbursed expenses for the Funds in order to maintain competitive yields. They observed that the Investment Adviser had previously made certain contractual management fee waivers permanent in February 2018, lowering the Funds’ contractual management fee. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Funds differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

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

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for each Fund was provided for 2018 and 2017, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Funds.

The Trustees noted that the Funds do not have management fee breakpoints. They considered the asset levels in the Funds; the Funds’ recent purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and their realized profits; information comparing the contractual fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other money market funds in the peer groups; and the Investment

GOLDMAN SACHS FUNDS — INVESTOR FUNDS

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

Adviser’s undertaking to limit certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels. They considered a report prepared by the Outside Data Provider, which surveyed money market funds’ management fee arrangements and use of breakpoints. The Trustees also considered the competitive nature of the money market fund business and the competitiveness of the fees charged to the Funds by the Investment Adviser.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs; (b) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Funds with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (c) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Funds on behalf of its other clients; (d) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (e) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Fund Distributor; (f) Goldman Sachs’ ability to engage in principal transactions with the Funds under exemptive orders from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission permitting such trades; (g) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Funds; and (h) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Funds’ third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Funds and Their Shareholders

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

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by each of the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser’s costs and each Fund’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Adviser’s continued management likely would benefit each Fund and its shareholders and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to each Fund until June 30, 2020.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Quantitative Investment Strategies Team (“QIS Team”) discusses the Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation Fund’s (the “Portfolio”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Portfolio perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio’s Institutional, Class P and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns of 4.15%, 4.16% and 4.14%, respectively. This compares to the 6.96% average annual total return of the Portfolio’s blended benchmark, the Strategic Factor Allocation Composite Index (the “Index”), which is composed 50% of the S&P 500^® Index and 50% of the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, during the same period. The components of the Portfolio’s blended benchmark, the S&P 500^® Index and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, generated average annual total returns of 2.92% and 10.17%, respectively, during the Reporting Period.

Q What economic and market factors most influenced the Portfolio during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, global economic growth expectations, central bank monetary policy and ongoing trade disputes most influenced the financial markets and the Portfolio. Both U.S. equities and the fixed income markets overall generated positive returns, with fixed income significantly outpacing U.S. equities.

U.S. equities inched higher as the Reporting Period began in September 2018, driven by robust U.S. macroeconomic data relative to other developed markets and to emerging markets. Against a backdrop of solid economic growth, near-target inflation and healthy monthly job gains, the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) raised interest rates by 25 basis points, in line with market expectations. (A basis point is 1/100th of a percentage point.) The successful outcome of North American Free Trade Agreement negotiations to its new incarnation as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement near month end was also supportive of market sentiment. U.S. equities then fell in October 2018, as investor sentiment rapidly deteriorated on escalating trade and political uncertainty and in a delayed response to an earlier sell-off in global interest rates. The retreat resulted in tighter U.S. financial conditions, which had been resilient to Fed interest rate hikes earlier in the calendar year. U.S. equities saw a reprieve in November 2018 on more accommodative comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell and encouraging progress in U.S.-China trade talks. However, the recovery was short-lived. U.S. equities subsequently plunged in December 2018 on renewed investors fears sparked by the arrest of a Chinese technology executive, the partial U.S. federal government shutdown, the U.S. President’s criticism of Fed Chair Powell and reignited corporate earnings growth concerns.

After a volatile end to 2018, a U.S. equity market rally to begin 2019 marked the best first quarter performance for the S&P 500^® Index since 1998. Fed commentary provided a supportive background for U.S. equities, as Fed Chair Powell reiterated a “patient” approach to monetary policy that included a pause in interest rate hikes and a nearing end to the unwinding of the Fed’s balance sheet. (The Fed unwinds, or shrinks, its balance sheet by selling securities on its balance sheet and/or not reinvesting maturing securities.) The U.S. unemployment rate remained well below trend at 3.8% in February 2019 with a steady increase in wages of 3.4% year over year. Housing data continued to show strength in the first calendar quarter, with new home sales reaching 667,000 in February 2019, bringing the three-month average up to 630,000. Strength in housing data could be partially attributed to a steep decline in mortgage rates, resulting from a more cautious Fed. The University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index was a point of significant strength in the U.S. economy, steadily climbing in each month of the first quarter of 2019 and eventually reaching 98.4 in March, its highest level in six months. Economic growth concerns,

however, failed to completely abate, as fourth quarter Gross Domestic Product was revised down 0.4% in March to 2.2%. While the revision was further evidence of a slowing U.S. economy, the result was largely priced in by equity markets and thus had a limited effect on stock prices outside of the financials sector, which tends to be more interest rate sensitive.

Following the sharp rally in the first quarter of 2019, the S&P 500^® Index posted a somewhat more moderate gain in the second calendar quarter to close its best first half since 1997. Trade tensions between the U.S. and China dominated headlines and broadly added noise to the markets. (In a broad analytical context, noise refers to information or activity that confuses or misrepresents genuine underlying trends.) In April 2019, there was a widely-held optimistic outlook for a possible trade deal, but such optimism faded in May when the U.S. President threatened to raise then-current tariffs and impose new duties on $300 billion of additional Chinese imports. Sanctions were temporarily placed on a Chinese telecommunications giant until they were lifted in June 2019, when any additional tariffs or compromise were postponed. Also during the second quarter of 2019, the U.S. equity markets kept a close eye on the Fed. After steadily raising interest rates since 2015 to a range of 2.25% to 2.50%, the Fed alluded to a more accommodative approach. The U.S. equity market consensus largely priced in at least one interest rate cut by the end of 2019, if not sooner. Economic indicators were mixed during the second calendar quarter, with consumer sentiment remaining elevated, while nonfarm payrolls and manufacturing indices across the board fell short of market expectations.

After an exceptionally strong first half of 2019, the S&P 500^® Index delivered more muted, but still positive, returns in July 2019. The Fed lowered interest rates by 25 basis points, marking the first interest rate cut since 2008. Fed Chair Powell’s tone was dovish throughout the month, though more hawkish sentiment at the announcement of the cut raised market uncertainty surrounding future easing of monetary policy. (Dovish language tends to suggest lower interest rates; opposite of hawkish.) More than 60% of S&P 500^® Index companies had reported earnings by the end of July 2019. Key themes for the corporate earnings reporting season revolved around a healthy consumer backdrop, softer industrial results and global economic uncertainty. The U.S. President announced a one-year exemption of 110 Chinese products from the 25% tariffs that had been previously added on July 6, 2018. However, he later threatened to introduce new tariffs on $325 billion of Chinese goods despite the truce that was agreed upon at the G20 Summit at the end of June. (The G20 (or Group of Twenty) is an international forum for the governments and central bank governors from 19 countries and the European Union. It was founded in 1999 with the aim to discuss policy pertaining to the promotion of international financial stability.)

The S&P 500^® Index fell in August 2019. The month’s headlines were dominated by trade tensions, as the U.S. President announced an intention to impose additional tariffs on remaining Chinese goods not yet subject to tariffs, causing increased market volatility. Economic data was largely mixed, with manufacturing data and consumer confidence showing signs of weakness but domestic demand holding steady in the context of a strong labor market and rising wages.

As for the fixed income markets, spread, or non-government bond, sectors generally performed well in September 2018. U.S. economic growth remained strong, though some major economies, including those of the Eurozone, the U.K. and China, exhibited a gradual weakening trend. The Fed raised short-term interest rates, with its dot plot pointing to another increase by the end of 2018 and three more during 2019. (The “dot plot” shows rate projections of the members of the Fed’s Open Market Committee.) Fed Chair Powell delivered an upbeat assessment of the U.S. economy, which supported market expectations for these additional Fed rate hikes in 2019. U.S. Treasury rates rose in response, followed, in turn, by the interest rates of several other developed markets countries. The U.S. dollar was broadly flat versus many major currencies during the month.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, investor concerns about slowing global economic growth momentum as well as tighter financial conditions, mainly in the U.S., weighed on spread sector performance. In particular, U.S. corporate bonds experienced notable weakness, as credit spreads, or yield differentials versus U.S. Treasury securities, widened significantly. U.S. Treasury yields fell as investors grew fearful about the possible end of the global economic cycle and as their expectations for Fed rate hikes diminished. In December 2018, Fed policymakers raised short-term interest rates, much as the market had expected, but lowered their projection for 2019 monetary policy tightening from three rate hikes to two. U.S. economic activity data remained in expansionary territory during the fourth calendar quarter but moderated from cycle highs. Headline inflation pressures eased as crude oil prices declined. The U.S. dollar appreciated relative to many major currencies during the fourth calendar quarter.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

In the first quarter of 2019, spread sectors broadly posted gains, as dovish pivots by global central banks boosted investor sentiment and helped fuel rallies in both sovereign government bonds and riskier segments of the fixed income market. Notably, high yield corporate bonds recorded their strongest start to a calendar year on record. The Fed kept its monetary policy unchanged during the first calendar quarter, with its dot plot projecting no interest rate hikes at all during 2019. Meanwhile, the European Central Bank (“ECB”) extended its forward guidance, noting its interest rates would remain unchanged through 2019. Other developed markets’ central banks — namely, those of Australia, New Zealand and Switzerland — also turned dovish. The U.S. economy continued to benefit from strength in household consumption, which was underpinned by a healthy labor market. The U.S. dollar strengthened relative to many major currencies during the first quarter of 2019.

In the second calendar quarter, most spread sectors recorded gains. The quarter started off on a positive note in April 2019, as developed markets’ central banks kept monetary policy unchanged. In the U.S., the Fed noted that inflation softness might be due to “transitory factors.” The Bank of Japan clarified its forward guidance to signal unchanged monetary policy through the spring of 2020, while the Bank of England (“BoE”) maintained its guidance around interest rate hikes occurring at a gradual pace and to a limited extent. Statements by Sweden’s Riksbank and the Bank of Canada were also somewhat dovish, as they generally focused risks arising from slower global economic growth. However, in May 2019, spread sectors were challenged by the escalation of U.S.-China trade tensions. That same month, market speculation about possible 2019 Fed rate cuts increased due to an accumulation of factors, including soft inflation, weakness in U.S. economic data, continued global economic growth headwinds from unresolved U.S.-China trade negotiations and weakness in the manufacturing sector. During June 2019, spread sector performance improved on raised prospects of ongoing monetary policy accommodation by global central banks, particularly the Fed. At its June meeting, the U.S. central bank left interest rates unchanged, but eight of the 12 members on the Federal Open Market Committee projected rate cuts during the 2019 calendar year. In Europe, a dovish speech by outgoing ECB President Mario Draghi signaled forthcoming easing. The U.S. dollar weakened versus many major currencies during the second quarter of 2019.

In July 2019, spread sectors benefited from the dovish outlooks of global central banks, though they gave up some of their gains later in the month as U.S.-China trade tensions escalated. In the U.S., economic data was mixed. Although employment and wage growth continued, manufacturing and non-manufacturing indices both declined. The Fed delivered its first interest rate cut since 2008, with Fed Chair Powell describing it as a “mid-cycle adjustment.” The Fed also announced it would stop trimming its balance sheet in September 2019, two months earlier than expected. Elsewhere, the ECB set the stage for a policy easing package in September, which was widely expected to include a rate cut, resumed asset purchases and strengthened forward guidance. At the same time, the BoE kept monetary policy unchanged. The U.S. dollar strengthened relative to many major currencies during July.

In August 2019, spread sectors weakened as U.S.-China trade tensions and political developments in Argentina resulted in increased investor risk aversion. Global interest rates fell as hawkish trade rhetoric intensified, leading to market concerns about the outlook for global economic growth and, in turn, raising investor expectations for monetary policy easing. In the U.S., the economy added fewer jobs than consensus expected, while the Institute for Supply Management’s Manufacturing Index contracted for the first time since 2016. U.S. interest rates fell on market expectations for additional Fed monetary policy easing, with the 30-year Treasury yield dropping to its lowest level on record. The U.S. dollar appreciated slightly versus many major currencies during August.

Q What were the primary contributors to and detractors from the Portfolio’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective through the implementation of the Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation process (“Strategic Allocation”), which is derived from the Goldman Sachs Investment Strategy Group’s (“ISG”) market views on a variety of asset classes and instruments. The Strategic Allocation was developed to provide exposure to “factors,” which are academically derived drivers of investment returns that the Goldman Sachs ISG believes offer the potential for greater and more consistent returns in various market environments. These factors include, but are not limited to, Equity, Term, Flow and Volatility. The QIS Team implements the Strategic Allocation by investing in derivatives and pooled investment vehicles, including, but not limited to, investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) (the “Underlying Funds”) and exchange-traded notes (“ETNs”). The

Underlying Funds may include affiliated investment companies. The Strategic Allocation may also be implemented by investing in any one or a combination of the following asset classes: (i) U.S. and foreign equity securities, including common and preferred stocks; (ii) fixed income instruments, which include, among others, debt issued by governments (including the U.S. and foreign governments), their agencies, instrumentalities, sponsored entities, and political subdivisions, notes, debt participations and non-investment grade securities (commonly known as “junk bonds”); and (iii) foreign exchange contracts.

During the Reporting Period, the Strategic Allocation detracted overall from the Portfolio’s performance. In relative terms, the Equity, Term and Volatility factors hurt returns, while the Flow factor contributed positively. On an absolute basis, the Equity, Term and Flow factors added to performance, while the Volatility factor detracted from results. The Equity factor seeks to capture the premium associated with equity risk. The Flow factor seeks to systematically capitalize on flows within and across asset classes. The Term factor seeks to capture the premium associated with interest rate and inflation risk. The Volatility factor seeks to capture the “fear premium” associated with equity risk. (The fear premium is the amount investors tend to overpay to preserve capital during periods of financial market volatility.)

Q How was the Portfolio positioned at the beginning of the Reporting Period?

A In terms of its Strategic Allocation at the beginning of the Reporting Period, the Portfolio maintained equal weightings in the Equity, Term, Flow and Volatility factors.

In terms of underlying asset classes and instruments, the Portfolio maintained positions in U.S. equities, listed U.S. equity index options and U.S. fixed income. In terms of currencies, it held long positions versus the U.S. dollar in the Canadian dollar and the euro. It held short positions relative to the U.S. dollar in the Australian dollar, British pound and New Zealand dollar at the start of the Reporting Period. The Portfolio did not hold positions versus the U.S. dollar in the Swiss franc or Japanese yen at the beginning of the Reporting Period.

Q How did the Portfolio use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A The Portfolio uses derivatives for both hedging and non-hedging purposes in the implementation of the Strategic Allocation. During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio employed listed equity index options to implement views on the U.S. equity market, which had a negative impact on performance. It used bond futures to express views on the U.S. fixed income market, which added to returns. In addition, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, which were used to take long and short positions in select developed markets currencies, had a negative impact overall on the Portfolio’s results during the Reporting Period.

Q Were there any changes to the Portfolio’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Effective June 17, 2019, Matthew Schwab became a portfolio manager of the Portfolio, and Christian Morgenstern no longer served as a portfolio manager of the Portfolio. By design, all investment decisions for the Portfolio are performed within a co-lead or team structure, with multiple subject matter experts. This strategic decision making has been the cornerstone of our approach and helps to ensure continuity in the Portfolio. At the end of the Reporting Period, the portfolio managers for the Portfolio were Matthew Schwab and Nishank Modi.

Q How was the Portfolio positioned at the end of the Reporting Period?

A In terms of its Strategic Allocation at the end of the Reporting Period, the Portfolio maintained equal weightings in the Equity, Flow and Volatility factors. It had a relatively smaller weighting in the Term factor.

In terms of underlying asset classes and instruments, the Portfolio maintained positions in U.S. equities, listed U.S. equity index options and U.S. fixed income. In terms of currencies, it held long positions versus the U.S. dollar in the Canadian dollar, New Zealand dollar and euro. It held short positions relative to the U.S. dollar in the British pound and Japanese yen. The Portfolio did not hold positions versus the U.S. dollar in the Australian dollar and Swiss franc at the end of the Reporting Period.

Q What was the Portfolio’s strategy at the end of the Reporting Period?

Going forward, the QIS Team plans to continue implementing the Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation process as it seeks long-term total return.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2019

1. ORGANIZATION

Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation Fund (the “Portfolio”) is a diversified portfolio and currently offers three classes of shares — Institutional, Class P, and Class R6 Shares. Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Portfolio pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

A.  Investment Valuation — The valuation policy of the Portfolio and underlying funds (“Underlying Funds”) is to value investments at fair value.

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. For derivative contracts, realized gains and losses are recorded upon settlement of the contract.

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

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

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

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

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

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

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

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

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

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Portfolio, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have delegated to GSAM day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Portfolio’s investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

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

Underlying Funds (including Money Market Funds) — Underlying Funds (“Underlying Funds”) include other investment companies. Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at the NAV per share on the day of valuation. Because the Portfolio invests in Underlying Funds that fluctuate in value, the Portfolio’s shares will correspondingly fluctuate in value. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. For information regarding an Underlying Fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Fund’s shareholder report.

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

Exchange-traded derivatives, including futures and options contracts, are generally valued at the last sale or settlement price on the exchange where they are principally traded. Exchange-traded options without settlement prices are generally valued at the midpoint of the bid and ask prices on the exchange where they are principally traded (or, in the absence of two-way trading, at the last bid price for long positions and the last ask price for short positions). Exchange-traded derivatives typically fall within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) and centrally cleared derivatives are valued using market transactions and other market evidence, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value OTC and centrally cleared derivatives depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and

17

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC FACTOR ALLOCATION FUND

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

August 31, 2019

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

correlations of such inputs. For OTC and centrally cleared derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC and centrally cleared derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence.

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

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a forward contract in which the Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked-to-market daily at the applicable forward rate. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.

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

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

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

C.  Fair Value Hierarchy — The following is a summary of the Portfolio’s investments and derivatives classified in the fair value hierarchy as of August 31, 2019:

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A.  Management Agreement — Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Portfolio, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Portfolio’s business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of each Portfolio’s average daily net assets.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, contractual and effective net management fees with GSAM were at the following rates:

Contractual Management Rate										Effective Net Management Rate*^
First $2 Billion		Next $3 Billion		Next $3 Billion		Over $8 Billion		Effective Rate
	0.75%		0.68%		0.64%		0.62%		0.75%		0.64%

* GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Portfolio in an amount equal to any management fee it earns as an investment adviser to any of the affiliated funds in which the Portfolio invests through at least December 28, 2019. Prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangement without the approval of the Trustees.

^ Effective Net Management Rate includes the impact of management fee waivers of affiliated Underlying Funds, if any.

The Portfolio invests in Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Government Money Market Fund”), which is an affiliated Underlying Fund. GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Portfolio in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to the affiliated Underlying Fund in which the Portfolio invests, except those management fees it earns from the Portfolio’s investment of cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Government Money Market Fund. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, GSAM waived $1,929,090 of the Portfolio’s management fee.

B.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Portfolio for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates as follows: 0.04% of the average daily net assets of Institutional Shares and 0.03% of the average daily net assets of Class P and Class R6 Shares.

C.  Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Portfolio (excluding acquired (underlying) fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, service fees and shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation

20

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC FACTOR ALLOCATION FUND

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued)

and indemnification and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Portfolio is not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. The Other Expense limitation as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets for the Portfolio is 0.164%. The Other Expense limitation will remain in place through at least December 28, 2019, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees. In addition, the Portfolio has entered into certain offset arrangements with the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Portfolio’s expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

D.  Line of Credit Facility — As of August 31, 2019, the Portfolio participated in a $580,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and certain registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Portfolio based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the Portfolio did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 30, 2019, the facility was $770,000,000.

E.  Other Transactions with Affiliates — For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, Goldman Sachs did not earn any brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions on behalf of the Portfolio.

As of August 31, 2019, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. was the beneficial owner of approximately 100% of Class R6 Shares of the Portfolio.

The table below shows the transactions in and earnings from investments in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019:

Affiliated Investment Company	Beginning Value as of August 31, 2018	Purchases at Cost		Proceeds from Sales			Ending Value as of August 31, 2019		Shares as of August 31, 2019		Dividend Income from Affiliated Investment Companies

6. PORTFOLIO SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of long-term securities for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, were $4,274,331,049 and $5,347,504,672, respectively.

7. SECURITIES LENDING

Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the SEC and the terms and conditions contained therein, the Portfolio may lend its securities through a securities lending agent, Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs, to certain qualified borrowers including Goldman Sachs and affiliates. In accordance with the Portfolio’s securities lending procedures, the Portfolio receives cash collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Portfolio, at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded, and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Portfolio on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Portfolio may experience delay in the recovery of its securities or incur a loss should the borrower of the securities breach its agreement with the Portfolio or become insolvent at a time when the collateral is insufficient to cover the cost of repurchasing securities on loan. Dividend income received from securities on loan may not be subject to withholding taxes and therefore withholding taxes paid may differ from the amounts listed in the Statement of

21

August 31, 2019

7. SECURITIES LENDING (continued)

Operations. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and as such 1) the remaining contractual maturities of the outstanding securities lending transactions are considered to be overnight and continuous and 2) the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions. The Portfolio invests the cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Government Money Market Fund”), an affiliated series of the Goldman Sachs Trust. The Government Money Market Fund is registered under the Act as an open end investment company, is subject to Rule 2a-7 under the Act, and is managed by GSAM, for which GSAM may receive a management fee of up to 0.16% on an annualized basis of the average daily net assets of the Government Money Market Fund.

In the event of a default by a borrower with respect to any loan, GSAL will exercise any and all remedies provided under the applicable borrower agreement to make the Portfolio whole. These remedies include purchasing replacement securities by applying the collateral held from the defaulting broker against the purchase cost of the replacement securities. If, GSAL is unable to purchase replacement securities, GSAL will indemnify the Portfolio by paying the Portfolio an amount equal to the market value of the securities loaned minus the value of the cash collateral received from the borrower for the loan, subject to an exclusion for any shortfalls resulting from a loss of value in such cash collateral due to reinvestment risk. The Portfolio’s master netting agreements with certain borrowers provide the right, in the event of a default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. However, in the event of a default by a borrower, a resolution authority could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of set-off that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Portfolio’s loaned securities were all subject to enforceable Securities Lending Agreements and the value of the collateral was at least equal to the value of the cash received. The amounts of the Portfolio’s overnight and continuous agreements, which represent the gross amounts of recognized liabilities for securities lending transactions outstanding as of August 31, 2019, are disclosed as “Payable upon return of securities loaned” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, where applicable.

Both the Portfolio and GSAL received compensation relating to the lending of the Portfolio’s securities. The amounts earned, if any, by the Portfolio for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, are reported under Investment Income on the Statement of Operations.

The table below details securities lending activity with affiliates of Goldman Sachs:

8. TAX INFORMATION (continued)

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2018 was as follows:

Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income	$	21,028,469
Net long-term capital gains		26,330,207
Total taxable distributions	$	47,358,676

As of August 31, 2019, the components of accumulated earnings (losses) on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income — net	$	23,018,819
Capital loss carryforwards:
Perpetual Long-Term		(2,908,755	)
Timing differences (Late Year Loss Deferral)		(5,982,115	)
Total accumulated earnings		14,127,949

As of August 31, 2019, the Portfolio’ aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Tax Cost	$	1,332,273,246
Gross unrealized gain		—
Gross unrealized loss		—
Net unrealized gains (losses) on securities	$	—

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to net mark to market gains (losses) on regulated futures contracts, options contracts and foreign currency contracts.

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

9. OTHER RISKS

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

Derivatives Risk — The Portfolio’s use of derivatives may result in loss. Derivative instruments, which may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in securities, currencies or other instruments, may be illiquid or less liquid, volatile, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes in the value of the underlying instruments may produce disproportionate losses to the Portfolio. Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligation. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with investments in more traditional securities and instruments. Losses from derivatives can also result from a lack of correlation between changes in the value of derivative instruments and the portfolio assets (if any) being hedged.

Foreign Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the United States. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation, less public information and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which the Portfolio invests. The imposition of exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscations, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and

23

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC FACTOR ALLOCATION FUND

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

August 31, 2019

9. OTHER RISKS (continued)

other government restrictions by the United States or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which the Portfolio has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time.

Foreign Custody Risk — If the Portfolio invests in foreign securities, the Portfolio may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Portfolio’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over, or independent evaluation of, their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on the Portfolio’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Geographic Risk — If the Portfolio focuses its investments in securities of issuers located in a particular country or geographic region, the Portfolio may be subjected, to a greater extent than if its investments were less focused, to the risks of volatile economic cycles and/or conditions and developments that may be particular to that country or region, such as: adverse securities markets; adverse exchange rates; adverse social, political, regulatory, economic, business, environmental or other developments; or natural disasters.

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, fixed income securities or instruments held by the Portfolio will generally decline in value. Long-term fixed income securities or instruments will normally have more price volatility because of this risk than short-term fixed income securities or instruments. The risks associated with changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets and the Portfolio’s investments. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Portfolio.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, including an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”), the Portfolio will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Portfolio. ETFs are subject to risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including but not limited to the following: (i) the market price of the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or a discount to their NAV; and (ii) an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — The Portfolio may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include the Portfolio in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Portfolio. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause the Portfolio to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Portfolio’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in the Portfolio’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Portfolio’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Portfolio share purchases may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance to the extent that the Portfolio is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Liquidity Risk — The Portfolio may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Portfolio will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, the Portfolio may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under

24

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC FACTOR ALLOCATION FUND

9. OTHER RISKS (continued)

unfavorable conditions. If a Portfolio is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect the Portfolio’s NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. These risks may be more pronounced in connection with the Portfolio’s investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on the Portfolio’s liquidity.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, the Portfolio trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). Additionally, the Portfolio may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Portfolio has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

10. INDEMNIFICATIONS

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

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

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

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of

Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation Fund

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation Fund (one of the portfolios constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, referred to hereafter as the “Portfolio”) as of August 31, 2019, the related statement of operations for the year ended August 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019, 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 Portfolio as of August 31, 2019, 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 August 31, 2019 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 Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolio’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 Portfolio 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 August 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent 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.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended  August 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Institutional, Class P or Class R6 Shares of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Institutional, Class P, and Class R6 Shares of the Portfolio 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 from March 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019, which represents a period of 184 days in a 365 day year.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual net expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. 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.

Actual		1,000.00		1,052.80			3.52
Hypothetical 5% return		1,000.00		1,021.78	+		3.47

* Hypothetical expenses are based on the Portfolio’s actual annualized net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses.

+ Expenses are calculated using the Portfolio’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended August 31, 2019. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows: 0.72% for Institutional Shares, 0.71% for Class P Shares and 0.68% for Class R6 Shares.

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC FACTOR ALLOCATION FUND

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Strategic Factor Allocation Fund (the “Portfolio”) is an investment portfolio of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Portfolio at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Portfolio.

The Management Agreement was most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2020 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 11-12, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”).

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

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Portfolio by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, including information about:

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

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

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

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

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

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

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

(d) the terms of the Management Agreement and other agreements with affiliated service providers entered into by the Trust on behalf of the Portfolio;

(e) fee and expense information for the Portfolio, including:

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

(ii) the Portfolio’s expense trends over time; and

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

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

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

(h) information relating to the profitability of the Management Agreement and the transfer agency and distribution and service arrangements of the Portfolio to the Investment Adviser and its affiliates;

(i) whether the Portfolio’s existing management fee schedule adequately addressed any economies of scale;

29

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC FACTOR ALLOCATION FUND

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

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

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Portfolio as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) information regarding commissions paid by the Portfolio and broker oversight, other information regarding portfolio trading, and how the Investment Adviser carries out its duty to seek best execution;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Portfolio. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of the Portfolio to its peers using rankings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2018. The information on the Portfolio’s investment performance was provided for the one-year period ending on the applicable date. The Trustees also reviewed the Portfolio’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Portfolio over time, and reviewed the investment performance of the Portfolio in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions.

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

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and portfolio management personnel in which Portfolio performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Portfolio’s risk profile, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management. They noted the efforts of the Portfolio’s portfolio management team to continue to enhance the investment models used in managing the Portfolio.

The Trustees observed that the Portfolio’s Institutional Shares had underperformed the Portfolio’s benchmark index for the one-year period ended March 31, 2019. They also noted that the Portfolio had experienced certain portfolio management changes in 2018.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

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

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

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Portfolio, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Portfolio differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

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

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed the Portfolio’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Portfolio and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for the Portfolio was provided for 2018 and 2017, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Portfolio. The Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreement for the Portfolio at the following annual percentage rates of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio:

First $2 billion	0.75	%
Next $3 billion	0.68
Next $3 billion	0.64
Over $8 billion	0.62

31

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC FACTOR ALLOCATION FUND

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

The Trustees noted that the breakpoints were designed to share potential economies of scale, if any, with the Portfolio and its shareholders as assets under management reach those asset levels. The Trustees considered the amount of assets in the Portfolio; the Portfolio’s recent share purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and their realized profits; information comparing fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer group; and the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to limit certain expenses of the Portfolio that exceed a specified level. Upon reviewing these matters at the Annual Meeting, the Trustees concluded that the fee breakpoints represented a means of assuring that benefits of scalability, if any, would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels. They also noted that the Investment Adviser had passed along savings to shareholders of the Portfolio, which had asset levels above at least the first breakpoint during the prior fiscal year.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Portfolio as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”); (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities and futures transactions on behalf of the Portfolio; (c) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Portfolio with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (d) fees earned by Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, as securities lending agent (and fees earned by the Investment Adviser for managing the fund in which the Portfolio’s cash collateral is invested); (e) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Portfolio on behalf of its other clients; (f) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Portfolio shareholders; (g) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Portfolio Distributor; (h) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Portfolio; and (i) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Portfolio’s third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Portfolio and Its Shareholders

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

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by the Portfolio were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser’s costs and the Portfolio’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Adviser’s continued management likely would benefit the Portfolio and its shareholders and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to the Portfolio until June 30, 2020.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Global Portfolio Solutions Team discusses the Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund’s (the “Portfolio”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2019 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Portfolio perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio’s Institutional, Class P and Class R6 Shares generated average annual total returns of 0.71%, 0.59% and 0.58%, respectively. These returns compare to the 2.61% average annual total return of the Portfolio’s benchmark, the ICE^® BofAML^® U.S. Dollar Three-Month LIBOR Constant Maturity Index (the “Index”), during the same time period.

References to the Portfolio’s benchmark and to other indices, if any, mentioned herein are for informational purposes only, and unless otherwise noted, are not indications of how the Portfolio is managed. The use of the Index as the Portfolio’s benchmark does not imply the Portfolio is being managed like cash and does not imply low risk or low volatility.

Q What economic and market factors most influenced the Portfolio during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, global economic growth data, central bank monetary policy and geopolitics most influenced the financial markets and the Portfolio.

When the Reporting Period began in September 2018, global economic growth moderated, but nevertheless remained healthy, especially in the U.S. China’s economic data were mixed, with retail sales slightly better than market anticipated but fixed asset investment, which is a measure of capital spending, missing market expectations. In terms of geopolitics, the U.S. Administration imposed tariffs on $200 billion of imports from China. However, the tariff rate was set at 10%, which was at the lower end of the market expected range of 10% to 25%, sparking a rally in emerging markets assets and helping them to recover some losses they had experienced earlier in the month. Major developed equity markets were up during September, broadly outperforming emerging equity markets. Within developed markets equities, Japanese stocks were the best performers, as a weaker Japanese yen supported export-oriented companies. Regarding fixed income, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield rose 20 basis points, and real yields (i.e., nominal yields adjusted for inflation) rose 15 basis points. (A basis point is 1/100^th of a percentage point.) The increase in yields reflected strong U.S. economic activity, with ongoing fiscal stimulus boosting economic activity despite moderating growth outside the U.S. The Federal Reserve (“Fed”) raised short-term interest rates by 25 basis points, much as the markets expected, at its September policy meeting. Additionally, the Fed’s dot plot pointed to one more rate hike by the end of 2018, with its longer-term outlook essentially unchanged. (The “dot plot” shows rate projections of the members of the Fed’s Open Market Committee.) Among currencies, the U.S. dollar weakened slightly, while the Mexican peso and Canadian dollar strengthened. The Japanese yen was the worst performing major currency, largely due to higher U.S. interest rates and a reduction in global investor risk aversion. Within commodities, Iran sanctions and comments from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) fueled rallies in both Brent and West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude oil prices.

Subsequently, a mix of slowing global economic growth, downward revisions in investors’ corporate earnings growth expectations, and a less accommodative Fed weighed on global equities, which experienced one of their worst fourth quarters and Decembers in history. Global equities, as represented by the MSCI All Country World Investable Market Index (“MSCI ACWI IMI”), were down more than 12% for the fourth calendar quarter, with major equity markets across the U.S., Eurozone and Japan all posting negative returns. Despite continued weakness in Chinese economic data, emerging markets equities outperformed developed markets equities, thanks to the strong performance of Brazilian and Indian equities. Within fixed income, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield fell on signs of slowing U.S. economic growth. Yet, the Fed hiked short-term interest rates

by another 25 basis points. At the same time, investors revised downward their expectations for 2019 Fed monetary policy action from two interest rate hikes to no rate increases at all. The Fed, however, still projected two rate hikes during the 2019 calendar year. Within commodities, WTI crude oil prices declined on market concerns about global economic growth and oversupply. In December 2018, OPEC and Russia decided to cut crude oil production to support prices.

Risk assets broadly rebounded during the first quarter of 2019, as investor sentiment turned positive on a combination of dovish global central bank policy, tentative stabilization in Chinese economic growth and promising developments in U.S.-China trade talks. (Dovish tends to suggest lower interest rates; opposite of hawkish.) As inflationary pressures remained rather muted, the Fed and European Central Bank (“ECB”) each made a dovish shift and then maintained monetary policy stances that were broadly supportive of economic growth. More specifically, the Fed signaled it would make no additional short-term interest rate hikes during 2019, and the ECB indicated it was reluctant to hike interest rates during the calendar year. Although global economic growth continued to decelerate, there were signs of improvement, including indications of a bottoming in Chinese credit growth, a modest pick-up in fixed asset investment and an uptick in March 2019 manufacturing data. Global equities, as measured by the MSCI ACWI IMI, posted a gain of more than 12% during the first calendar quarter, led by a rally in U.S. stocks. Emerging markets equities overall underperformed developed markets equities, but Chinese stocks, as represented by the MSCI China Index, rose more than 17%. In fixed income, the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield fell during the first quarter of 2019. The U.S. dollar appreciated versus most major currencies.

During the second quarter of 2019, the combination of continued weakness in global economic growth and low levels of inflation led the Fed and ECB to indicate they might ease monetary policy. In June, the Fed signaled its next policy move was more likely to be an interest rate cut than an interest rate hike. The Fed’s dot plot revealed that policymakers expected to keep interest rates stable during 2019, which would then be followed by a 25 basis point cut in 2020. Meanwhile, the ECB hinted that interest rate cuts and quantitative easing were on the table should economic data disappoint in the near term. Global equities were volatile during the second calendar quarter. They suffered a significant decline in May 2019 amid headwinds from U.S.-China trade negotiations and then recovered in June, driven by dovish central bank actions and market expectations of a pause in U.S.-China trade tensions ahead of the G20 meeting at month end. (Also known as Group of 20 nations, the G20 is a forum attended by finance ministers and central bank governors from the world’s highly developed economies consisting of 19 countries and the European Union.) For the second calendar quarter overall, global equities gained more than 3%, as measured by the MSCI ACWI IMI. In fixed income, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield and the 10-year German government bond yield fell in response to global economic growth weakness and dovish central bank policies. Among commodities, crude oil and copper prices declined, as China’s economic growth moderated. Gold prices benefited from falling yields. Within currencies, the U.S. dollar was modestly weaker versus most major currencies.

In July 2019, most asset classes delivered subdued but positive returns. Although volatility was muted at the beginning of the month, global equities pulled back during the last week as U.S.-China trade tensions and investors’ global economic growth concerns reemerged. On July 31st, the Fed cut short-term interest rates by 25 basis points — the first rate cut since 2008. The ECB gave strong hints that additional easing might be imminent. Within equities, developed markets stocks, as measured by the MSCI World Index, continued their solid run, returning 1.3% during July and outperforming emerging markets stocks, which declined 1.1%, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Meanwhile, the S&P 500^® Index reached new all-time highs, up 1.4% during July and up more than 20% for the 2019 year to date through July 2019. Within fixed income, global government bonds posted modest gains, with strength in European bonds partially offset by mild weakness in U.S. Treasury securities. Among currencies, the U.S. dollar appreciated versus most major currencies during July 2019.

A mixture of weak global economic growth, further escalation in U.S.-China trade tensions and low levels of liquidity during the summer months dampened the performance of risk assets during August 2019. Global equities, as measured by the MSCI ACWI IMI, declined 5%, led by a -4.9% sell-off in emerging markets equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Within developed markets equities, Japanese stocks, as represented by TOPIX, were the worst performers, down 3.4%, due mainly to the appreciation of the Japanese yen. Eurozone stocks, as measured by the EURO STOXX 50^® Index, and U.S. stocks, as measured by the S&P 500^® Index, were down 1.1% and 1.6%, respectively, during August. On the monetary policy front, major global central banks continued to signal accommodative monetary policy to stem the

slowdown in global economic growth. The Fed remained on hold during the month, while the ECB suggested there might be a monetary easing package in the near term. In this environment, fixed income broadly rallied, with the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield falling approximately 50 basis points and the 10-year German government bond yield falling approximately 25 basis points. Most European bond yields hit record lows during the month, as did the 30-year U.S. Treasury yield. In addition, the spread, or differential, between the yields on two-year and 10-year U.S. Treasury securities inverted for the first time since May 2007, meaning two-year yields were higher than 10-year yields. This triggered broad market anxiety about the potential of a U.S. recession. Regarding commodities, those considered procyclical, such as copper and crude oil, declined in price during August 2019. (Procyclical commodities tend to be positively correlated with an expanding economy.) Gold prices rallied, benefiting from investor risk aversion and the drop in U.S. interest rates. Among currencies, demand for perceived safe-haven assets strengthened the Japanese yen, the U.S. dollar and the Swiss franc versus other major currencies.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Portfolio’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective through the implementation of investment ideas that are generally derived from short-term or medium-term market views on a variety of asset classes and instruments.

During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio was helped by its positions in investment grade fixed income, which performed well in November 2018 on less hawkish comments by Fed Chair Jerome Powell and on investor caution amid ongoing equity market volatility and falling crude oil prices. This position also benefited as interest rates dropped during the fourth quarter of 2018 amid signs of slowing economic growth. Also adding to the Portfolio’s performance was a tactical long position in WTI crude oil, accomplished through a call option spread. (A call option spread is a strategy that involves purchasing call options at a specific strike price, while simultaneously selling call options on the same asset but at a higher strike price. A call option is an option that gives the holder the right to buy a certain quantity of an underlying security at an agreed-upon price at any time up to an agreed-upon date.) Most of this position’s outperformance occurred in January 2019 when crude oil prices rebounded from earlier declines and U.S.-China trade deal negotiations boosted investor sentiment. Within equities, the Portfolio’s tactical long position in large-cap U.S. banks contributed positively. Most of the gains occurred during the first quarter of 2019, as the U.S. banking sector bounced back from negative performance during the fourth quarter of 2018, which had been driven by the U.S.-China trade war, less accommodative central bank monetary policies and slowing U.S. economic growth. This rally ended in March, as the Fed turned more dovish than the market expected, leading to a drop in interest rates and a flattening of the U.S. Treasury yield curve. (Yield curve is a spectrum of maturities of varying lengths. A flattening yield curve is one wherein the differential in yields between longer-term and shorter-term maturities narrows.)

Among detractors during the Reporting Period was the Portfolio’s tactical long position in European bank stocks. Slowing global economic growth, trade tensions, concerns over Brexit, the prolonged negative interest rate environment in the Eurozone, and sluggish loan growth all contributed to poor performance in the European banking sector. (Brexit refers to the U.K.’s efforts to exit the European Union.) Within currencies, the Portfolio’s tactical long position in the British pound versus the U.S. dollar diminished performance. The British pound depreciated 2.6% against the U.S. dollar during the second quarter of 2019 following appreciation of 2.2% during the first calendar quarter. This performance was primarily driven by continued uncertainty around Brexit, with no signs of agreement between different political parties. In addition, the Portfolio was hampered by its tactical exposure to energy infrastructure master limited partnerships (“MLPs”), as costs for completing projects and capital expenditures for new projects rose during the early part of the Reporting Period. The energy sector, as well as the broader equity market, had a weak October 2018, with concerns about global economic growth, rising interest rates and U.S.-China trade disputes weighing on investor sentiment. Falling crude oil prices also dampened the performance of energy infrastructure MLPs, as measured by the Alerian MLP Index, during the month. Crude oil prices declined as markets priced in a possible drop in demand caused by slowing global economic growth. The Alerian MLP Index finished 2018 with a fourth consecutive month of negative performance, largely due to the decline in crude oil prices.

Q How was the Portfolio positioned at the beginning of the Reporting Period?

A At the beginning of the Reporting Period, the Portfolio had approximately 33.74% of its total net assets invested in long

3

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

equity-related investments; approximately 35.58% of its total net assets invested in long fixed income-related investments; approximately 17.89% of its total net assets invested in long currency-related investments; and approximately 0.16% of its total net assets invested in long commodity-related investments. It had short positions of approximately -9.76% of its total net assets in a basket of large-cap equity-related investments that we believed might underperform the U.S. stock market and also short positions of approximately -3.22% of its total net assets in emerging markets equity-related investments. The Portfolio had no short positions in fixed income-related investments at the beginning of the Reporting Period.

The above sector breakout is inclusive of derivative exposure across all asset classes, but it does not necessarily include the cash and short-term investments held to support those positions. Derivatives positions are mostly supported by cash held in the Portfolio specifically to cover its exposure and any potential margin calls or future losses experienced. Given the line-up of positions held, most of them were derivatives-based, so the cash allocation at the end of the Reporting Period was high.

Q How did you tactically manage the Portfolio’s allocations during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, in response to shifting macroeconomic and market dynamics, we made a number of changes to the Portfolio’s exposures.

In terms of equity-related exposures, we shifted a portion of the Portfolio’s tactical long position in Spanish equities to its existing tactical long position in European bank stocks during October 2018. In our view, the risk/reward profile of European bank stocks had improved relative to that of Spanish equities. Also during October, we added two tactical U.S. bank option tilts. The first was a long at-the-money call option position and the second was a short at-the-money put option position. (“At-the-money” is a term used to describe a call option with a strike price that is the same as the market price of the underlying asset. A put option is an option contract giving the owner the right, but not the obligation, to sell a specified amount of an underlying asset at a specified price within a specified time.) Our rationale for both positions was the underperformance of European bank stocks, which were down more than 10% for 2018 year to date near the end of October. In our opinion, the fundamentals did not justify the decline, given that 2019-2020 corporate earnings estimates fell only about 1% during the third quarter of 2018. In November 2018, the long U.S. bank equity call option position expired out of the money. (“Out of the money” is a term used to describe a call option with a strike price that is higher than the market price of the underlying asset, or a put option with a strike price that is lower than the market price of the underlying asset.) Nevertheless, we continued to believe that U.S. banks had an attractive risk/reward profile, which is why the Portfolio maintained exposure to them through a tactical long position in an exchanged traded fund and tactical short positions in put options.

During November 2018, we increased the Portfolio’s systematic downside mitigation tactical tilt because of what we viewed as elevated equity valuations and the advanced stage of the U.S. economic cycle. (The systematic downside mitigation tactical tilt was designed to limit the Portfolio’s exposure to potential market declines through the shorting of U.S. large-cap stocks that we believed might underperform the broader U.S. stock market, while at the same time taking a long position in the broader U.S. stock market.) We believed the increase could add value; in our view, investors’ margin of safety was increasingly slim but we did not think a tactical short position was warranted yet. Also in November, we reduced the Portfolio’s tactical short position in emerging markets equities, which was part of its tactical tilt in South African stocks and emerging markets equities, by changing that tactical tilt to a long position in South African stocks and short positions in emerging markets equities and investment grade bonds. Rising U.S. interest rates and a stronger U.S. dollar, along with what appeared to be investors’ waning concerns about China, suggested to us the environment was becoming more favorable for emerging markets equities.

During December 2018, the Portfolio took assignment of U.S. bank stocks after its put options expired in the money. (“In the money” is a term used to describe a call option with a strike price that is lower than the market price of the underlying asset, or a put option with a strike price that is higher than the market price of the underlying asset.) U.S. bank stocks had underperformed since the put options position was implemented, and valuations had become more attractive, in our view. Earnings estimates had been relatively flat, and we believed U.S. bank stocks offered a solid risk premium. Also in December 2018, we added a S&P 500^® Index call option spread. In our view, equity market declines seemed to overstate the degree of potential U.S. economic weakening. We believed the option call spread could help mitigate unexpected downside because the Portfolio would keep the premium it earned from option writing. In January 2019, we reduced the size of the call option spread tilt because the S&P 500^® Index had rallied more than 6% since

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

we implemented the position. We eliminated the position entirely by the end of the month, as we believed it had realized most of its potential gains. In January and February 2019, we sold a portion of the Portfolio’s tactical long position in U.S. bank stocks to capture gains. In February 2019, we added a European bank call option to the Portfolio, as European bank stocks continued to perform poorly but had improving fundamentals, in our opinion.

In March 2019, we eliminated part of the Portfolio’s tactical long position in Spanish equities, as we believed Spanish equity prices were near our target for calendar year returns. That said, we maintained most of the Portfolio’s long exposure to Spanish stocks because our fundamental outlook remained positive. We thought valuations were still attractive, and we believed investor sentiment about European equities was weaker than warranted. Near the end of the month, we added an S&P 500^® utilities sector puts tilt. In our view, valuations were expensive, with the utilities sector’s price-earnings ratio relative to the S&P 500^® Index in the 99th percentile, making it more difficult for investors to withstand the potential of a sell-off in the sector. At the beginning of May 2019, we eliminated the Portfolio’s tactical long position in U.S. bank stocks to capture profits. U.S. bank stocks had appreciated more than 23% in the 2019 year to date. In June 2019, we invested in S&P 500^® Index put options, as we sought to hedge a portion of the Portfolio from several near-term event risks. Also in June, we added a tactical tilt wherein the Portfolio held a long position in South Korean equities versus a short position in Taiwanese equities. At the time, South Korea’s 18% valuation discount versus Taiwanese equities was near its widest level in 14 years. Additionally, we allowed the Portfolio’s S&P 500^® utilities sector put options to expire during June. An escalation in U.S.-China trade tensions, coupled with the decline in one-year U.S. Treasury yields, caused defensive sectors, such as utilities, to outperform. In July 2019, we increased the Portfolio’s long South Korea-short Taiwan tactical tilt, as South Korean equities weakened after Japan imposed restrictions on supplies of certain chemicals to South Korea. We believed investors were overestimating the potential impact of these restrictions on South Korean companies’ earnings, which provided us with an attractive entry point to increase the size of the Portfolio’s position. In August 2019, we increased the Portfolio’s tactical long position in European bank stocks because we thought their valuations offered an attractive risk premium. We also allowed the Portfolio’s S&P 500^® Index put options to expire, as near-term event risks subsided. Finally, we reduced the size of the Portfolio’s tactical long position in South African equities. This was predicated on the deteriorating outlook for emerging markets equities, driven by investor concerns around the U.S.-China trade war, slowing global economic growth and disappointing emerging markets earnings growth. In addition, during the Reporting Period, we implemented a systematic upside improvement tilt. (The systematic upside improvement tilt seeks to identify stocks that are likely to outperform the market based on a variety of technical and fundamental ranking factors. The resulting long positions are then held against an equally sized short position in the S&P 500^® Index.)

In terms of fixed income-related exposures, we eliminated a portion of our duration-neutral high yield corporate bond tactical tilt in September 2018. This positioning seeks to benefit from the spread offered as compensation for the risk of potential default. We exited the position entirely in February 2019, as it had nearly met our full calendar year return expectations, and high yield spreads were at levels we considered consistent with a low single-digit default rate. Additionally, we eliminated the Portfolio’s tactical long position in U.S. bank loans in October 2018 when the position had met our return expectations. Higher interest rates made investment grade corporate bonds more attractive, in our opinion, than bank loans. In addition, during January 2019, we removed the Portfolio’s tactical long position in energy-related high yield corporate bonds, as they had reached our expected return expectations and market prices presented what we felt was an attractive exit point. We also increased the Portfolio’s tactical exposure to investment grade fixed income, using bond futures, as we considered a higher allocation to U.S. Treasuries to be a viable complement to the Portfolio’s already-large cash buffer.

In March 2019, we reduced the Portfolio’s holdings of investment grade fixed income, reallocating the proceeds to cash for use in future tactical tilts. During June, we added a U.S. yield curve steepener wherein the Portfolio held a short position in 30-year U.S. Treasury futures and a long position in five-year U.S. Treasury futures. (A steepening position seeks to take advantage of a widening differential between yields at the shorter- and longer-term ends of a range of maturities.) We believed the position would benefit from a recovery in market expectations for term premiums and inflation. (Term premium is the compensation that investors generally receive for the added risk of owning longer-term bonds.) We also expected the supply of U.S. Treasury securities to remain significant and for new issuance to grow. Increased bond supply puts upward pressure on interest rates.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS

During the middle of June 2019, we added an interest rate relative value basket, which consisted of long and short positions in 10-year bond futures from a number of developed countries, as we sought to capture the benefits of their differing yields and relative changes in those yields.

Regarding currency-related exposures, we trimmed the Portfolio’s tactical long position in the British pound versus its tactical short position in the U.S. dollar during September 2018, given that the British pound was up nearly 4% from its then-recent trough in August 2018. We further reduced the position in December 2018, as the British pound weakened, and we anticipated market volatility due to Brexit negotiations. Also in December, we decreased the Portfolio’s tactical short position in the Japanese yen versus its tactical long position in the U.S. dollar. This move was predicated on our belief that the Fed would pause its interest rate hiking cycle and adopt more dovish forward guidance, which could be a headwind for the U.S. dollar. In addition, the Japanese yen had significantly outperformed as compared to its historical correlation with risk assets during sell-offs, and we thought this atypical performance might change if market volatility persisted. In April 2019, we adopted a tactical long position in the euro versus the U.S. dollar. In our view, other investors’ short exposure to the euro had grown since early 2018, and foreign capital flows into euro-denominated assets was increasing, which could signal improving investor appetite for the currency. During June 2019, we added to the Portfolio’s position in this tactical tilt. We thought the market considered Fed monetary policy guidance more dovish than that of the ECB, which could reduce the yield advantage of U.S. dollar-denominated assets. Toward the end of July 2019, we eliminated the Portfolio’s tactical long position in the British pound versus the U.S. dollar, as the outlook for Brexit and the case for additional monetary policy tightening became less clear with political developments in the U.K. Finally, in August 2019, we reduced the Portfolio’s long position in the euro versus the U.S. dollar and its long position in the U.S. dollar versus the Japanese yen. The value of the euro was range-bound, while the Japanese yen faced downward pressure from accelerating Japanese capital outflows against the backdrop of exceptionally low domestic yields.

Regarding commodities, we reduced the Portfolio’s WTI crude oil tactical tilt, which we had implemented through an option call spread, during September 2018 to capture gains. The position was eliminated near the beginning of October, as WTI crude oil prices had increased significantly, and we believed the position was vulnerable to short-term market risks. In December 2018, we reestablished a WTI crude oil tactical tilt through a call spread collar. (A call spread collar is an options trading strategy that is constructed by holding shares of the underlying stock while simultaneously selling call options against that holding.) We established the position due to what we considered to be attractive valuations, as potential supply disruptions could occur, in our opinion, if Iranian sanctions were tightened after waivers expired in April 2019. In February 2019, we eliminated the WTI crude oil tactical tilt, as we felt the position was vulnerable to a short-term market pullback. Also in February, we added WTI crude oil puts to the Portfolio. The same month, we reduced by half the Portfolio’s WTI crude oil tactical tilt, retaining the rest of the position as potential upside emerged, including sanctions on Venezuela and strong OPEC production discipline.

Near the end of March 2019, we implemented a new relative value tilt in which the Portfolio was long gasoline and short diesel. At the time, gasoline was trading at weaker levels than diesel, reflecting the buildup of gas inventories in the wake of low 2018 demand and strong gas production by refineries during 2019. In July 2019, we liquidated the position, as we believed the difference between gasoline and diesel prices had narrowed to near historically seasonal levels. In addition, during July, we established a tactical short position in gold by selling call options while buying at-the-money calls and at-the-money puts. The goal was to capture a positive volatility skew in gold call options and also allow the Portfolio to benefit if gold prices stabilized or fell following recent gains. (Volatility skew is the difference in implied volatility (i.e., expectations of future volatility) between out-of-the-money options, at-the-money options and in-the-money options.) We eliminated this tactical short position in August 2019. Even though gold prices began to retrace their gains, an unexpected escalation in the U.S.-China trade war drove global yields lower and fostered a rush by investors into perceived safe-haven assets, both of which renewed upward pressure on gold prices. Additionally, in August 2019, we added a long tactical position in gasoline futures. The forward curve for WTI crude oil had shifted on the back of accelerating inventory declines, which has historically been a positive indicator of market tightness and a signal for higher prices in the near term. (The forward curve is a function graph that defines the prices at which a contract for future delivery or payment can be concluded on the present day.) Furthermore, reformulated gasoline blend-stock for oxygenate blending gasoline (“RBOB”) refining margins were trading at eight-year seasonal lows, offering an

attractive entry point for a long position, in our view. (RBOB gasoline is a fuel product made from refined crude oil.)

Separately, we increased the Portfolio’s tactical exposure to energy infrastructure MLPs during October 2018. At the time, the Alerian MLP Index had declined almost 15% from its late August 2018 high. In addition, energy infrastructure MLP valuations and distribution yields remained attractive, in our view. We removed a small portion of this tactical position during April 2019, capturing gains; the Alerian MLP Index was up more than 19% for the year to date through April. We further reduced the position in July 2019 for similar reasons.

Q How did the Portfolio use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A The Portfolio used derivatives and similar instruments as part of its investment strategy to express views implemented in the Portfolio. Positions were supported predominantly by cash held in the Portfolio specifically to cover its exposure to derivative instruments and any potential margin calls or future losses experienced.

During the Reporting Period, the Portfolio employed equity, bond and commodity futures, equity swaps, total return swaps, options, options on commodity futures, currency forwards and index credit default swaps to express active investment views with greater versatility across regional equity markets, global market sectors, commodities markets and currency markets. The Portfolio’s use of equity futures to gain exposure to emerging markets equities, Spanish equities, European bank stocks, South African equities, U.S. stocks, South Korean equities and Taiwanese equities collectively detracted from performance. Bond futures, which the Portfolio employed for its long position in investment grade fixed income and to gain exposure to U.S. Treasury securities, contributed positively. Collectively, the Portfolio’s use of equity swaps to obtain exposure to European bank stocks and its use of total return swaps within the systematic downside mitigation tactical tilt and the systematic upside improvement tilt had a negative impact on performance. (The systematic upside improvement tilt seeks to identify stocks that are likely to outperform the market based on a variety of technical and fundamental ranking factors. The resulting long positions are then held against an equally sized short position in the S&P 500^® Index.) To afford greater risk management precision, options on equity indices were employed to tactically adjust the amount of equity risk and downside risk in the Portfolio. The Portfolio’s use of equity options, including call options on the S&P 500^® Index as well as call options on European and U.S. bank stocks, added to performance. In addition, the Portfolio used options on commodity futures to express our views of WTI crude oil prices and gold prices, which had a positive impact on performance. Currency forwards, which were used to express our views on developed and emerging markets currencies, detracted overall from the Portfolio’s performance. Finally, the use of index credit default swaps within the Portfolio’s duration-neutral high yield corporate bond tactical tilt had a slightly positive impact on returns during the Reporting Period.

Q How was the Portfolio positioned at the end of the Reporting Period?

A At the end of the Reporting Period, the Portfolio had approximately 14.64% of its total net assets invested in long equity-related investments; approximately 47.03% of its total net assets invested in long fixed income-related investments; and 1.89% of its total net assets invested in long commodity-related investments. In terms of currency-related investments, the Portfolio had a long position in the euro versus a short position in the U.S. dollar (representing 3.08% of its total net assets) and a short position in the Japanese yen versus a long position in the U.S. dollar (representing -3.13% of its total net assets). The Portfolio also had short positions of approximately -12.40% of its total net assets in a basket of large-cap equity-related investments that we believed might underperform the U.S. stock market. It also held short positions of approximately -1.93% of its total net assets in emerging markets equity-related investments and short positions of approximately -3.21% in Taiwanese equity-related investments. In terms of fixed income-related investments, the Portfolio had a short position in 30-year U.S. Treasury securities and a short position in a relative interest rates value basket (representing -7.34% of its total net assets). It had no short positions in commodity-related investments at the end of the Reporting Period.

The above sector breakout is inclusive of derivative exposure across all asset classes, but it does not necessarily include the cash and short-term investments held to support those positions. Derivatives positions are mostly supported by cash held in the Portfolio specifically to cover its exposure and any potential margin calls or future losses experienced. Given the line-up of positions held, most of them were derivatives-based, so the cash allocation at the end of the Reporting Period was high.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Effective June 28, 2019, Siwen Wu became a portfolio manager of the Fund. By design, all investment decisions for the Fund are performed within a co-lead or team structure, with multiple subject matter experts. This strategic decision making has been the cornerstone of our approach and helps to ensure continuity in the Fund. At the end of the Reporting Period, the portfolio managers for the Fund were David Hale, Sergey Kraytman and Siwen Wu.

Q What is the Portfolio’s tactical asset allocation view and strategy for the months ahead?

A At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed U.S. economic pre-eminence remained intact and the country would continue to endure changes in policies regarding immigration and trade, shifting attitudes between isolationism and engagement, and disruptive challenges to its institutions. As for global economic conditions, we expected slowing activity across most countries and regions, including the U.S. We also believed the risk of recession had notched up but was still relatively modest in developed economies. In an effort to extend the U.S. economic expansion, the Fed had shifted to cutting interest rates. Meanwhile, the ECB signaled its willingness to return to easing.

In spite of this generally positive backdrop, we saw no shortage of global risks at the end of the Reporting Period, including escalating trade tensions, increasing political partisanship between the White House and a Democrat-controlled House of Representatives, and unknown outcomes with respect to the U.K.’s exit from the European Union.

Looking ahead, we believed the global environment at the end of the Reporting Period was supportive of above-average equity market returns, which we expect to exceed those of cash and bonds. Thus, we planned to focus the Portfolio on opportunities in equities, including tactical tilts to certain U.S. equity sectors, as well as Spanish, European bank, South African stocks, and currencies.

Performance Summary

August 31, 2019

The following graph shows the value, as of August 31, 2019, of a $1,000,000 investment made on July 31, 2014 (commencement of operations) in Institutional Shares at NAV. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Portfolio’s benchmark, the ICE^® BofAML^® U.S. Dollar Three-Month LIBOR Constant Maturity Index is shown. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown and in their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The returns set forth below represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted below. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns.

August 31, 2019

1. ORGANIZATION

Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund (the “Portfolio”) is a diversified portfolio and currently offers three classes of shares — Institutional, Class P and Class R6 Shares. Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Portfolio pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

A.  Basis of Consolidation for Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund — The Cayman Commodity — TTIF, Ltd. (the “Subsidiary”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, was incorporated on July 31, 2014 and is currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Portfolio. The Subsidiary acts as an investment vehicle for the Portfolio to enable the Portfolio to gain exposure to certain types of commodity-linked derivative instruments. The Portfolio is the sole shareholder of the Subsidiary pursuant to a subscription agreement dated as of July 31, 2014, and it is intended that the Portfolio will remain the sole shareholder and will continue to control the Subsidiary. Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Subsidiary, shares issued by the Subsidiary confer upon a shareholder the right to vote at general meetings of the Subsidiary and certain rights in connection with any winding-up or repayment of capital, as well as the right to participate in the profits or assets of the Subsidiary. All inter-fund balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As of August 31, 2019, the Portfolio’s net assets were $3,931,162,208, of which, $391,963,193, or 10.0%, represented the Subsidiary’s net assets.

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

C.  Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income, and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Portfolio may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments.

Distributions from master limited partnerships (“MLPs”) are generally recorded based on the characterization reported on the MLP’s tax return. The Portfolio records its pro-rata share of the income/loss and capital gains/losses, allocated from the underlying partnerships and adjusts the cost basis of the underlying partnerships accordingly.

For derivative contracts, realized gains and losses are recorded upon settlement of the contract. Upfront payments, if any, are made or received upon entering into a swap agreement and are reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Upfront payments are recognized over the contract’s term/event as realized gains or losses, with the exception of forward starting swap contracts whose realized gains or losses are recognized from the effective start date. For securities with paydown provisions, principal payments received are treated as a proportionate reduction to the cost basis of the securities, and excess or shortfall amounts are recorded as income.

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

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

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

The Subsidiary is classified as a controlled foreign corporation under the Code. Therefore, the Portfolio is required to increase its taxable income by its share of the Subsidiary’s income. Net losses of the Subsidiary cannot be deducted by the Portfolio in the current period nor carried forward to offset taxable income in future periods.

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

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

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

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

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

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

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

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Portfolio, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have delegated to GSAM day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Portfolio’s investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

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

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities may be valued at the closing bid price for long positions and at the closing ask price for short positions. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2.

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

Private Investments — Private investments may include, but are not limited to, investments in private equity or debt instruments. The investment manager estimates the fair value of private investments based upon various factors, including, but not limited to, transactions in similar instruments, completed or pending third-party transactions in underlying investments or comparable entities, subsequent rounds of financing, recapitalizations, and other transactions across the capital structure, offerings in equity or debt capital markets, and changes in current and projected financial ratios or cash flows.

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

Debt Securities — Debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued daily on the basis of quotations supplied by dealers or an independent pricing service approved by the Trustees. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which consider: (i) yield or price with respect to bonds that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value. With the exception of treasury securities of G8 countries, which are generally classified as Level 1, these investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

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

Exchange-traded derivatives, including futures and options contracts, are generally valued at the last sale or settlement price on the exchange where they are principally traded. Exchange-traded options without settlement prices are generally valued at the midpoint of the bid and ask prices on the exchange where they are principally traded (or, in the absence of two-way trading, at the last bid price for long positions and the last ask price for short positions). Exchange-traded derivatives typically fall within Level 1

28

GOLDMAN SACHS TACTICAL TILT OVERLAY FUND

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) and centrally cleared derivatives are valued using market transactions and other market evidence, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value OTC and centrally cleared derivatives depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC and centrally cleared derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC and centrally cleared derivatives are

classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence.

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

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a forward contract in which the Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked-to-market daily at the applicable forward rate. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.

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

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

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

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

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

3. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

A credit default swap is an agreement that involves one party (the buyer of protection) making a stream of payments to another party (the seller of protection) in exchange for the right to receive protection on a reference security or obligation, including a group of assets or exposure to the performance of an index. The Portfolio’s investment in credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if the Portfolio had invested in the referenced obligation directly. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring and obligation acceleration. If the Portfolio buys protection through a credit default swap and no credit event occurs, its payments are limited to the periodic payments previously made to the counterparty. Upon the occurrence of a specified credit event, the Portfolio, as a buyer of credit protection, is entitled to receive an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver to the seller the defaulted reference obligation in a physically settled trade. The Portfolio may also receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap reduced by the recovery value of the reference obligation in a cash settled trade.

As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives a payment stream throughout the term of the swap, provided that there is no credit event. In addition, if the Portfolio sells protection through a credit default swap, the Portfolio could suffer a loss because the value of the referenced obligation and the premium payments received may be less than the notional amount of the swap paid to the buyer of protection. Upon the occurrence of a specified credit event, the Portfolio, as a seller of credit protection, may be required to take possession of the defaulted reference obligation and pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap in a physically settled trade. The Portfolio may also pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap reduced by the recovery value of the reference obligation in a cash settled trade. Recovery values are at times established through the credit event auction process in which market participants are ensured that a transparent price has been set for the defaulted security or obligation. In addition, the Portfolio is entitled to a return of any assets, which have been pledged as collateral to the counterparty upon settlement.

The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that the Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations or net amounts received from a settlement of a credit default swap for the same reference security or obligation where the Portfolio bought credit protection.

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

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

The following tables set forth, by certain risk types, the gross value of derivative contracts (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) as of August 31, 2019. These instruments were used as part of the Portfolio’s investment strategies and to obtain and/or manage exposure related to the risks below. The values in the tables below exclude the effects of cash collateral received or posted pursuant to these derivative contracts, and therefore are not representative of the Portfolio’s net exposure.

The following tables set forth, by certain risk types, the Portfolio’s gains (losses) related to these derivatives and their indicative volumes for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019. These gains (losses) should be considered in the context that these derivative contracts may have been executed to create investment opportunities and/or economically hedge certain investments, and accordingly, certain gains (losses) on such derivative contracts may offset certain (losses) gains attributable to investments. These gains (losses) are included in “Net realized gain (loss)” or “Net change in unrealized gain (loss)” on the Consolidated Statement of Operations:

Risk	Consolidated Statement of Operations	Net Realized Gain (Loss)			Net Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss)			Average Number of Contracts(a)

4. INVESTMENTS IN DERIVATIVES (continued)

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Portfolio mitigate its counterparty risk, the Portfolio may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivatives counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Portfolio and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives (including forward foreign currency exchange contracts, and certain options and swaps), and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

Collateral and margin requirements differ between exchange traded derivatives and OTC derivatives. Margin requirements are established by the broker or clearing house for exchange-traded and centrally cleared derivatives (financial futures contracts, options and centrally cleared swaps) pursuant to governing agreements for those instrument types. Brokers can ask for margin in excess of the minimum in certain circumstances. Collateral terms are contract-specific for OTC derivatives. For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the marked to market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by the Portfolio and the counterparty. Additionally, the Portfolio may be required to post initial margin to the counterparty, the terms of which would be outlined in the confirmation of the OTC transaction.

For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Portfolio and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is reported separately on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as receivables/payables for collateral on certain derivative contracts. Non-cash collateral pledged by the Portfolio, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a counterparty must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer is required to be made. To the extent amounts due to the Portfolio from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Portfolio bears the risk of loss from counterparty nonperformance. The Portfolio attempts to mitigate counterparty risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that the Investment Adviser believes to be of good standing and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

Additionally, the netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received are based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the ISDA Master Agreement or similar agreements. However, in the event of a default or insolvency of a counterparty, a court could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of setoff that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws.

The following tables set forth the Portfolio’s net exposure for derivative instruments that are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements as of August 31, 2019:

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A.  Management Agreement — Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Portfolio, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Portfolio’s business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, contractual and effective net management fees with GSAM were at the following rates:

Contractual Management Rate
First $2 billion	Next $3 billion		Next $3 billion		Over $8 billion		Effective Management Fee Rate		Effective Net Management Fee Rate*^(a)
0.75%		0.68%		0.64%		0.62%		0.72%		0.66%

* GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Portfolio in an amount equal to any management fee it earns as an investment adviser to any of the affiliated funds in which the Portfolio invests through at least December 28, 2019. Prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangement without the approval of the Trustees.

^ Effective Net Management Fee Rate includes the impact of management fee waivers of affiliated Underlying Funds, if any.

(a) Reflects combined management fees paid to GSAM under the Agreement and the Subsidiary Agreement as defined below after waivers.

The Portfolio invests in Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Government Money Market Fund”), Class R6 Shares of the Goldman Sachs High Yield Floating Rate Fund and the Goldman Sachs MLP Energy Infrastructure Fund, which are affiliated Underlying Funds. GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Portfolio in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to the affiliated Underlying Funds in which the Portfolio invests, except those management fees it earns from the Portfolio’s investment of cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Government Money Market Fund. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, GSAM waived $3,643,822 of the Portfolio’s management fee.

GSAM also provides management services to the Subsidiary pursuant to a Subsidiary Management Agreement (the “Subsidiary Agreement”) and is entitled to a management fee accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of 0.42% of the Subsidiary’s average daily net assets. In consideration of the Subsidiary’s management fee, and for as long as the Subsidiary Agreement remains in effect, GSAM has contractually agreed to waive irrevocably a portion of the Portfolio’s management fee in an amount equal to the management fee accrued and paid to GSAM by the Subsidiary under the Subsidiary Agreement.

B. Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Portfolio for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates of 0.04% of the average daily net assets of Institutional Shares and 0.03% of the average daily net assets of Class P Shares and Class R6 Shares.

C. Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Portfolio (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Portfolio is not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. The Other Expense limitation as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets for the Portfolio is 0.164%. This Other Expense limitation will remain in place through at least December 28, 2019 and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangement without the approval of the Trustees. In addition, the Portfolio has entered into certain offset arrangements with the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Portfolio’s expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued)

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, these expense reductions, including any fee waivers and Other Expense reimbursements, were as follows:

Management Fee Waiver		Other Expense Reimbursements		Total Expense Reductions
$	3,643,822	$	51,049	$	3,694,871

D. Line of Credit Facility — As of August 31, 2019, the Portfolio participated in a $580,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and certain registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Portfolio based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, the Portfolio did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 30, 2019, the facility was $770,000,000.

E. Other Transactions with Affiliates — For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 , Goldman Sachs earned $369,299 in brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions, including futures transactions executed with Goldman Sachs as the Futures Commission Merchant, on behalf of the Portfolio.

7. SECURITIES LENDING

The Portfolio may lend its securities through a securities lending agent, the Bank of New York Mellon (“BNYM”), to certain qualified borrowers. In accordance with the Portfolio’s securities lending procedures, the Portfolio receives cash collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Portfolio, at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded, and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Portfolio on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Portfolio may ex perience delay in the recovery of its securities or incur a loss should the borrower of the securities breach its agreement with the Portfolio or become insolvent at a time when the collateral is insufficient to cover the cost of repurchasing securities on loan. Dividend income received from securities on loan may not be subject to withholding taxes and therefore withholding taxes paid may differ from the amounts listed in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and as such 1) the remaining contractual maturities of the outstanding securities lending transactions are considered to be overnight and continuous and 2) the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

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

In the event of a default by a borrower with respect to any loan, BNYM may exercise any and all remedies provided under the applicable borrower agreement to make the Portfolio whole. These remedies include purchasing replacement securities by applying the collateral held from the defaulting broker against the purchase cost of the replacement securities. If BNYM is unable to purchase replacement securities, BNYM will indemnify the Portfolio by paying the Portfolio an amount equal to the market value of the securities loaned minus the value of cash collateral received from the borrower for the loan, subject to an exclusion for any shortfalls resulting from a loss of value in such cash collateral due to reinvestment risk. The Portfolio’s master netting agreements with certain borrowers provide the right, in the event of a default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. However, in the event of a default by a borrower, a resolution authority could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of set-off that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Portfolio’s loaned securities were all subject to enforceable Securities Lending

Agreements and the value of the collateral was at least equal to the value of the cash received. The amounts of the Portfolio’s overnight and continuous agreements, which represent the gross amounts of recognized liabilities for securities lending transactions outstanding as of August 31, 2019, which are disclosed as “Payable upon return of securities loaned” on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities, where applicable.

Both the Portfolio and BNYM received compensation relating to the lending of the Portfolio’s securities. The amounts earned, if any, by the Portfolio for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, are reported under Investment Income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The following table provides information about the Portfolio’s investment in the Government Money Market Fund for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019.

Beginning Value as of August 31, 2018		Purchases at Cost		Proceeds from Sales			Ending Value as of August 31, 2019
$	256,405,265	$	983,732,181	$	(1,184,708,081	)	$	55,429,365

8. TAX INFORMATION

The tax character of distributions paid during the period ended August 31, 2019, in the amount of $97,691,903, was from ordinary income.

GOLDMAN SACHS TACTICAL TILT OVERLAY FUND

8. TAX INFORMATION (continued)

The tax character of distributions paid during the period ended August 31, 2018, in the amount of $45,296,029, was from ordinary income.

As of August 31, 2019, the components of accumulated earnings (losses) on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income — net	$	42,317,850
Capital loss carryforwards:(1)
Perpetual Short-Term	$	(209,487,226	)
Perpetual Long-Term		(667,831	)
Total capital loss carryforwards	$	(210,155,057	)
Timing differences (Late Year Ordinary Loss Deferral)	$	(32,229,944	)
Unrealized gains (losses) — net		(17,661,933	)
Total accumulated earnings (losses) net	$	(217,729,084	)

(1) The Portfolio utilized $8,718,911 of capital losses in the current fiscal year.

As of August 31, 2019, the Portfolio’s aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Tax Cost	$	3,813,064,047
Gross unrealized gain		12,706,997
Gross unrealized loss		(30,368,930	)
Net unrealized gains on investments	$	(17,661,933	)

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

The Portfolio reclassed $374,404 from paid in capital to distributable earnings for the year ending August 31, 2019. In order to present certain components of the Portfolio’s capital accounts on a tax-basis, certain reclassifications have been recorded to the Portfolio’s accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the net asset value of the Portfolio and result primarily from differences in the tax treatment of eliminating entries related to cayman subsidiary.

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

9. OTHER RISKS

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

Derivatives Risk — The Portfolio’s use of derivatives may result in loss. Derivative instruments, which may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in securities, currencies or other instruments, may be illiquid or less liquid, volatile, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes in the value of the underlying instruments may produce disproportionate losses to the Portfolio. Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligation. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with investments in more traditional securities and instruments. Losses from derivatives can also result from a lack of correlation between changes in the value of derivative instruments and the portfolio assets (if any) being hedged.

August 31, 2019

9. OTHER RISKS (continued)

Foreign and Emerging Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the United States. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation, less public information and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which the Portfolio invests. The imposition of exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscations of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the United States or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which the Portfolio has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. To the extent that the Portfolio also invests in securities of issuers located in emerging markets, these risks may be more pronounced.

Foreign Custody Risk — If the Portfolio invests in foreign securities, the Portfolio may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Portfolio’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over, or independent evaluation of, their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on the Portfolio’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Geographic Risk — If the Portfolio focuses its investments in securities of issuers located in a particular country or geographic region, the Portfolio may be subjected, to a greater extent than if its investments were less focused, to the risks of volatile economic cycles and/or conditions and developments that may be particular to that country or region, such as: adverse securities markets; adverse exchange rates; adverse social, political, regulatory, economic, business, environmental or other developments; or natural disasters.

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, fixed income securities or instruments held by the Portfolio will generally decline in value. Long-term fixed income securities or instruments will normally have more price volatility because of this risk than short-term fixed income securities or instruments. The risks associated with changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets and the Portfolio’s investments. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Portfolio.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, including an ETF, the Portfolio will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Portfolio. ETFs are subject to risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including but not limited to the following: (i) the market price of the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or a discount to their NAV; and (ii) an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained.

Investments in the Underlying Funds Risk — The investments of the Portfolio are concentrated in the Underlying Funds, and the Portfolio’s investment performance is directly related to the investment performance of the Underlying Funds it holds. The Portfolio is subject to the risk factors associated with the investments of the Underlying Funds in direct proportion to the amount of assets allocated to each. The Portfolio that has a relative concentration of its portfolio in a single Underlying Fund may be more susceptible to adverse developments affecting that Underlying Fund, and may be more susceptible to losses because of these developments.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — The Portfolio may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include the Portfolio in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of the Portfolio. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause the Portfolio to sell portfolio securities at

38

GOLDMAN SACHS TACTICAL TILT OVERLAY FUND

9. OTHER RISKS (continued)

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

Liquidity Risk — The Portfolio or Underlying Funds may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Portfolio or Underlying Funds will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, the Portfolio or Underlying Funds may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. If the Portfolio or Underlying Funds are forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect the Portfolio’s or Underlying Funds’ NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. Liquidity risk may be the result of, among other things, the reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities or the lack of an active market. The potential for liquidity risk may be magnified by a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income mutual funds may be higher than normal, potentially causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity. These risks may be more pronounced in connection with the Portfolio’s or Underlying Funds’ investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on the Portfolio’s or Underlying Funds’ liquidity.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, the Portfolio trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). Additionally, the Portfolio may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Portfolio has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Portfolio focuses its investments in securities of issuers in one or more sectors (such as the financial services or telecommunications sectors), the Portfolio may be subjected, to a greater extent than if its investments were diversified across different sectors, to the risks of volatile economic cycles and/or conditions and developments that may be particular to that sector, such as: adverse economic, business, political, environmental or other developments.

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

The IRS also issued a revenue procedure, which states that the IRS will not in the future issue PLRs that would require a determination of whether an asset (such as a commodity index-linked note) is a “security” under the Investment Company Act of 1940. In connection with issuing such revenue procedure, the IRS has revoked the Notes Rulings on a prospective basis. In light of the revocation of the Notes Rulings, the Portfolio has limited its investments in commodity index-linked structured notes. The Portfolio has obtained an opinion of counsel that the Portfolio’s income from investments in the Subsidiary should constitute “qualifying income.” However, no assurances can be provided that the IRS would not be able to successfully assert that the Portfolio’s income from such investments was not “qualifying income,” in which case the Portfolio would fail to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Code if over 10% of its gross income were derived from these

39

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

August 31, 2019

9. OTHER RISKS (continued)

investments. If the Portfolio failed to qualify as a RIC, it would be subject to federal and state income tax on all of its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. This would significantly adversely affect the returns to, and could cause substantial losses for, Portfolio shareholders.

Short Position Risk — The Portfolio may enter into a short position through a futures contract, an option or swap agreement or through short sales of any instrument that the Portfolio may purchase for investment. Taking short positions involves leverage of the Portfolio’s assets and presents various risks, including counterparty risk. If the value of the underlying instrument or market in which the Portfolio has taken a short position increases, then the Portfolio will incur a loss equal to the increase in value from the time that the short position was entered into plus any related interest payments or other fees. Taking short positions involves the risk that losses may be disproportionate, may exceed the amount invested, and may be unlimited. To the extent that the Portfolio uses the proceeds it receives from a short position to take additional long positions, the risks associated with the short position, including leverage risks, may be heightened, because doing so increases the exposure of the Portfolio to the markets and therefore could magnify changes to the Portfolio’s NAV.

10. INDEMNIFICATIONS

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

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events after the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities date have been evaluated, and GSAM has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust and Shareholders of

Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, of Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund (one of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust, referred to hereafter as the “Portfolio”) as of August 31, 2019, the related consolidated statement of operations for the year ended August 31, 2019, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2019, including the related notes, and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the periods therein (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolio as of August 31, 2019, 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 August 31, 2019, and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the periods therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

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

We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent 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.

Portfolio Expenses — Six Month Period Ended August 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Institutional, Class P and Class R6 Shares of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Institutional, Class P and Class R6 Shares of the Portfolio 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 from March 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019, which represents a period of 184 days in a 365-day year.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. 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:

Share Class	Beginning Account Value 3/1/19		Ending Account Value 8/31/19			Expenses Paid for the 6  Months ended 8/31/19*
Institutional

Hypothetical 5% return		1,000.00		1,021.53	+		3.72

+ Hypothetical expenses are based on each Portfolio’s actual annualized net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses.

* Expenses are calculated using the Portfolio’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended August 31, 2019. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows: 0.74% for Institutional Shares, 0.73% for Class P Shares and 0.73% for Class R6 Shares.

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Tactical Tilt Overlay Fund (the “Portfolio”) is an investment portfolio of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Portfolio at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Portfolio.

The Management Agreement was most recently approved for continuation until June 30, 2020 by the Board of Trustees, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), at a meeting held on June 11-12, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”).

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

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

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

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

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

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

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

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

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

(d) the terms of the Management Agreement and other agreements with affiliated service providers entered into by the Trust on behalf of the Portfolio;

(e) fee and expense information for the Portfolio, including:

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

(ii) the Portfolio’s expense trends over time; and

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

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

(g) the undertakings of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations of the Portfolio and the Underlying Funds;

(h) information relating to the profitability of the Management Agreement and the transfer agency and distribution and service arrangements of the Portfolio to the Investment Adviser and its affiliates;

44

GOLDMAN SACHS TACTICAL TILT OVERLAY FUND

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

(i) whether the Portfolio’s existing management fee schedule, together with the management fee schedules for the Underlying Funds, adequately addressed any economies of scale;

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

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

(l) information regarding commissions paid by the Portfolio and the Underlying Funds and broker oversight, an update on the Investment Adviser’s soft dollars practices, other information regarding portfolio trading, and how the Investment Adviser carries out its duty to seek best execution;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Portfolio and the Underlying Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Underlying Fund to its peers using rankings and ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2018, and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser using the peer groups identified by the Outside Data Provider as of March 31, 2019. The information on each Underlying Fund’s investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ending on the applicable dates, to the extent that each Underlying Fund had been in existence for those periods. The Trustees also reviewed the Portfolio’s and each Underlying Fund’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. They observed that the Portfolio had outperformed its LIBOR-based benchmark index by 1.88% and 2.21%, respectively, for the one- and three-year periods ended March 31, 2019. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the investment performance trends of the Portfolio and the Underlying Funds over time, and reviewed the investment performance of the Portfolio and each Underlying Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions. With respect to certain Underlying Funds, the Trustees also received information comparing the Funds’ performance to that of composites of accounts with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Adviser.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and portfolio management personnel in which Portfolio and Underlying Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Portfolio’s and Underlying Funds’ risk profiles, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

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

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

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations of the Portfolio and the Underlying Funds. The Trustees noted that the Investment Adviser had agreed to waive a portion of its management fee in an amount equal to the entire management fee paid to the Investment Adviser as the investment adviser to the Portfolio’s wholly-owned subsidiary. They also considered, to the extent that the Investment Adviser manages other types of accounts having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Portfolio, comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to those accounts, and information that indicated that services provided to the Portfolio differed in various significant respects from the services provided to other types of accounts which, in many cases, operated under less stringent legal and regulatory structures, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-intensive.

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

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed the Portfolio’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Portfolio and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for the Portfolio was provided for 2018 and 2017, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

46

GOLDMAN SACHS TACTICAL TILT OVERLAY FUND

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

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Portfolio. The Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreement for the Portfolio at the following annual percentage rates of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio:

First $2 billion	0.75	%
Next $3 billion	0.68
Next $3 billion	0.64
Over $8 billion	0.62

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

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Portfolio and/or the Underlying Funds as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”); (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities and futures transactions on behalf of the Portfolio and/or the Underlying Funds; (c) research received by the Investment Adviser from broker-dealers in exchange for executing certain transactions on behalf of the Portfolio and/or the Underlying Funds; (d) trading efficiencies resulting from aggregation of orders of the Portfolio and/or the Underlying Funds with those for other funds or accounts managed by the Investment Adviser; (e) fees earned by Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, as securities lending agent for certain Underlying Funds (and fees earned by the Investment Adviser for managing the fund in which the Portfolio’s and/or the Underlying Funds’ cash collateral is invested); (f) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Portfolio and the Underlying Funds on behalf of its other clients; (g) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Portfolio shareholders; (h) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with custodians on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Portfolio and the Underlying Funds; and (i) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Portfolio’s and Underlying Funds’ third-party service providers may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Portfolio and Its Shareholders

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

47

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

Funds in connection with the program; and (i) the Portfolio’s and Underlying Funds’ access to certain affiliated distribution channels. In addition, the Trustees noted the competitive nature of the mutual fund marketplace, and considered that many of the Portfolio’s shareholders invested in the Portfolio in part because of the Portfolio’s relationship with the Investment Adviser and that those shareholders have a general expectation that the relationship will continue.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by the Portfolio were reasonable in light of the services provided to it by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser’s costs and the Portfolio’s current and reasonably foreseeable asset levels. The Trustees unanimously concluded that the Investment Adviser’s continued management likely would benefit the Portfolio and its shareholders and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to the Portfolio until June 30, 2020.

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

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

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

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

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

Item 4(f) – Not applicable.

Item 4(g) Aggregate Non-Audit Fees Disclosure

The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST by PwC for the twelve months ended August 31, 2019 and August 31, 2018 were approximately $1,393,197 and $1,991,440 respectively. The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST’s adviser and service affiliates by PwC for non-audit services for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were approximately $12.3 million and $9.7 million respectively. With regard to the aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST’s adviser and service affiliates, the 2018 and 2017 amounts include fees for non-audit services required to be pre-approved [see Table 2] and fees for non-audit services that did not require pre-approval since they did not directly relate to GST’s operations or financial reporting.

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