Market Recap

 

U.S. stocks overcame a slowing economy early in 2014 to post a strong gain for the period from October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, supported by healthy corporate profits and continued low interest rates. The S&P 500® Index rose 12.42%, reaching an all-time high near period end. The technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index® gained 12.53%, driven by advancing shares of Apple, Facebook, Google and other large-cap companies. Among S&P 500® sectors, information technology (+21%) led the way amid strong demand for hardware, software and semiconductors, with the latter setting global sales records during the period. Health care (+17%) also performed well, with hefty contributions from pharmaceuticals, biotechnology & life sciences companies. Materials (+14%) rose amid higher prices for many commodity products. Energy (+14%) advanced due to strong global demand for crude oil, healthy U.S. output and the threat of supply disruptions in Iraq. Utilities (+10%) approached the index’s return, aided by fairly low input costs. Financials (+9%) lagged the broader market amid unfavorable interest rate trends for the industry and low trading volumes. Consumer discretionary (+7%) also trailed the index, as retailers suffered from lackluster customer traffic. Consumer staples (+6%) proved the worst performer, as many investors preferred to invest in stock sectors with more exposure to the growing economy. Volatility remained tame overall, with markets supported by declining unemployment, near-record profit margins for companies, muted cost inflation and low corporate debt levels. Geopolitical tensions remained a concern at period end, however, with conflict in Ukraine and strained relations between Russia and the West posing a potential threat to global growth.

Fidelity® MSCI Consumer Discretionary Index ETF

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value advanced 6.47%, in line with the 6.56% return of the MSCI USA IMI Consumer Discretionary Index. The ETF’s market price gained 6.59% over the same time frame, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. Consumer discretionary stocks produced the second-lowest return among the 10 MSCI market sectors during the period. Brick-and-mortar retailers continued to struggle after a harsh winter, and the group reported weak first-quarter sales across the board. Intense competition in the industry hurt margins, which dampened the performance of many stocks in the index. Multiple factors weighed on consumers’ decisions to spend on discretionary products, including concern over rising oil prices later in the period and an uptick in inflation, despite reduced debt loads and early signs of wage growth. However, the fundamental picture seemed to be improving, as housing strengthened, unemployment trended lower and auto sales improved. In fact, domestic car sales saw healthy sales volumes, largely driven by demand from buyers who had delayed purchases in recent years. Additionally, signs of economic improvement in the broad market, despite some volatility, lifted consumer confidence, while greater access to credit and attractive lending rates boosted affordability. Looking at industries within the sector, retailers – specifically apparel and home-furnishing retail, along with specialty and general merchandise stores – produced some of the lowest results. Internet retail performed about in line with the index; however, benchmark heavyweight and global e-commerce giant Amazon.com was hurt by mixed financial results this period, partly due to weakness in international markets. On the flip side, the movies & entertainment and cable & satellite segments – the two largest industry weightings, combined making up roughly 23% of the index, on average – performed well, as media companies benefited from a generally optimistic consumer and firms found ways to capitalize on paid content. In the former category, shares of Walt Disney were lifted by the success of the company’s animated films and an increase in visits to its theme parks.

Note to shareholders: Effective May 30, 2014, the fund eliminated the 25% limitation of assets invested in securities of a single issuer.

Fidelity® MSCI Consumer Staples Index ETF

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value rose 6.42%, in line with the 6.52% return of the MSCI USA IMI Consumer Staples Index. The ETF’s market price gained 6.50% over the same time frame, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. The period was uneventful for consumer staples, as the traditionally defensive sector languished while investors searched elsewhere for higher returns given a slowly improving yet volatile economy. Business conditions remained steady, but company fundamentals were largely uninspiring, due partly to disappointing growth rates in developed markets and slower-than-expected consumption in emerging markets (EM). Also, currency weakness in EM early in 2014 hurt staples firms with exposure there. Cost pressures in the sector were benign overall, with no pricing wars of note. However, many companies remained focused on cutting costs, which helped account for decent earnings results and minimal earnings volatility, while merger-and-acquisition activity among a handful of firms added a bit of a spark. In terms of industries, household products – which made up nearly 20% of the MSCI sector index – did poorly, as demand was flat for basic products; the weak-performing shares of consumer products giant Procter & Gamble dampened the group’s return. Two smaller segments of the index, personal products and food retail, also struggled. In the former, Nu Skin Enterprises and Avon Products put up poor numbers, while Whole Foods Market couldn’t keep pace in the latter. On the plus side, packaged foods & meats and drug retail bettered the index, with the latter industry boosted by strong returns from drugstore chains CVS Caremark and Walgreen. Beverage-related industries also did well, especially distillers & vintners, where names such as Beam lifted performance.

Fidelity® MSCI Energy Index ETF

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value rose 13.16%, in line with the 13.28% return of the MSCI USA IMI Energy Index. The ETF’s market price gained 13.20% over the same time frame, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. The ongoing boom in North American oil and natural gas production lifted several index segments to gains of more than 20% for the period. Oil & gas storage & transport gained 29% as U.S. pipeline companies benefited from moving the glut of midcontinent-produced oil and gas to coastal refiners. Refining & marketing – which made up 6% of the index, on average – was another outperformer, as expansion of the U.S. pipeline system brought more U.S. crude to Gulf Coast refiners for processing. Equipment & services firms such as Schlumberger and Halliburton also benefited from the exploration boom. Conversely, integrated oil & gas, which makes up nearly 40% the index, fell short, returning 12%. Nonetheless, large index components Exxon Mobil and Chevron were notable gainers here, as global oil prices rose in the new year amid tensions in Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East. Coal & consumable fuels (-10%) posted the energy sector’s only negative result, due mainly to increased regulation and the nation’s shift from coal to natural gas and renewable energy. Elsewhere in exploration & production, shares of U.S. driller Noble Energy fell on lowered production guidance, while Cobalt International Energy declined on news of a failed effort in the Gulf of Mexico.

Fidelity® MSCI Financials Index ETF

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value rose 7.89%, roughly in line with the 7.97% return of the MSCI USA IMI Financials Index. The ETF’s market price gained 8.09% over the same period, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. The sector got off to a strong start in the last quarter of 2013, benefiting from an improved economic outlook, expectations of higher interest rates and continued monetary support from the U.S. Federal Reserve. However, in 2014, declining interest rates and low market volatility hampered performance. For the reporting period, diversified and regional banks – which together made up about one-third of the benchmark – generally did well because a pickup in loan volumes helped offset pressure from continued low interest rates and ongoing regulatory issues. Standouts included diversified bank Wells Fargo, a 7% weight in the MSCI sector index. Investment banking & brokerage stocks received a lift from increased merger-and-acquisition activity, despite slowing trading volumes. Consumer finance stocks, such as American Express, gained from improved consumer spending and credit trends, while asset management & custody banks climbed as the rising equity market helped boost assets under management. By contrast, property & casualty insurance stocks, including AFLAC, lagged, held back by unfavorable pricing and renewal trends in the new year, along with a shift away from more-defensive segments. Real estate investment trust (REIT) segments – which in aggregate accounted for 20% of the index – turned in mixed results, but tended to benefit as rates fell and investors looked for yield. Detractors, however, included specialized REIT Rayonier, which saw its stock decline due to pricing pressures in its specialty cellulose business.

Note to shareholders: Effective May 30, 2014, the fund eliminated the 25% limitation of assets invested in securities of a single issuer.

Performance

 

The information provided in the tables below shows you the performance of Fidelity® MSCI Health Care Index ETF, with comparisons over different time periods to the fund’s relevant benchmarks, including an appropriate broad-based market index. Seeing the returns over different time periods can help you assess the fund’s performance against relevant measurements. The performance information includes cumulative total returns and is further explained in this section.*

The fund’s net asset value (NAV) performance is based on the NAV calculated each business day. It is calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing investment company shares as of the close of regular trading hours on NYSE Arca, Inc.

Since ETFs are bought and sold at prices set by the market – which can result in a premium or discount to NAV – the returns calculated using market price (market return) can differ from those calculated using NAV (NAV return). For information on these differences, please visit Fidelity.com or call Fidelity. The $10,000 table and the fund’s returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption or selling of fund shares.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value rose 17.23%, in line with the 17.37% return of the MSCI USA IMI Health Care Index. The ETF’s market price gained 17.35% over the same time frame, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. Strong fundamentals continued to underpin the sector’s solid performance, while long-term tailwinds remained a source of stability – an aging global population, an expanding middle class in emerging markets, a strong product innovation cycle and the beginnings of a massive digitalization of the health care economy. Despite some volatility in higher-growth areas such as biotechnology, the sector’s diversified composition, attractive valuation and defensive qualities helped it maintain its strong performance. Pharmaceuticals, the largest industry in the index, struggled a bit during the period, hurt partly by the likelihood of increased government regulation and expiring patents, but was boosted by merger-and-acquisition (M&A) activity, which fueled outsized gains in many stocks, most notably the purchase of Forest Laboratories by Ireland-based Actavis. Big-benchmark component biotechnology experienced some headwinds during the period, as investor concerns that the group’s multiyear rally had possibly reached its peak caused the stocks to sell off on heavy volume during a brief window in March and April. Congressional inquiries about drug pricing also weighed on the industry, but strong gains among large benchmark names, such as Gilead Sciences, helped push biotech in front of the index. Managed health care stocks, although a smaller portion of the index, did well, while life science tools & services companies, such as Illumina, continued to benefit from that industry’s innovative gene sequencing technology. On the down side, health care equipment and health care supplies stocks, including Cerner in the former area, felt the pressure from hospitals’ attempts to rein in costs and trailed the index.

Note to shareholders: Effective May 30, 2014, the fund eliminated the 25% limitation of assets invested in securities of a single issuer.

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value rose 7.75%, roughly in line with the 7.89% return of the MSCI USA IMI Industrials Index. The ETF’s market price gained 7.75% over the same time frame, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. Against the backdrop of a subdued but ongoing global economic recovery and relatively stable fuel prices, transportation stocks were standout performers in the industrials sector, with airlines, trucking and railroads notching returns of 52%, 24% and 20%, respectively. Aerospace & defense, the largest index group, on average, produced a result that was roughly in line with the overall index, returning about 8%. Industrial conglomerates, the second-biggest index group by average weighting, lagged with a 4% gain, weighed down partly by index heavyweight General Electric. Rail carrier Union Pacific stood out for its strong contribution. Industrial conglomerate 3M was a noteworthy outperformer in its group, and heavy equipment maker Caterpillar was among the double-digit gainers in the index. Defense contractors also were well-represented in the top performers, notably Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics. On the negative side, commercial aircraft manufacturer Boeing saw its stock price lose ground, as did aircraft parts supplier Precision Castparts. Two stocks in the construction & engineering segment, KBR and Chicago Bridge & Iron, also ended the period with negative returns. In the trading companies & distributors segment, W.W. Grainger was a laggard.

Note to shareholders: Effective May 30, 2014, the fund eliminated the 25% limitation of assets invested in securities of a single issuer.

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value rose 17.14%, in line with the 17.27% return of the MSCI USA IMI Information Technology Index. The ETF’s market price gained 17.30% over the same time frame, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. As concern over weak first-quarter 2014 U.S. economic growth gave way to relief about a second-quarter economic rebound, cyclically sensitive index groups such as semiconductors and technology hardware, storage & peripherals posted solid gains of 32% and 30%, respectively. Technology stocks were especially strong from mid-June onward, as investors piled into a number of large-cap favorites in the sector. With that said, application software, data processing & outsourced services and Internet software & services were laggards. During the period, smartphone maker and index heavyweight Apple was a standout, as were two stocks tied to the personal computer market: operating software maker Microsoft and chipmaker Intel. Social network provider Facebook also turned in above-market results. Conversely, the shares of professional network LinkedIn recorded a steep loss during the period. Rackspace Hosting, offering Web hosting for businesses, also saw its shares decline significantly, as did data analysis software firm Splunk. Two other stocks that ran into trouble during the period were Cree, which makes LED lighting, and CommVault Systems, a provider of data and information management software and related services.

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value rose 12.15%, roughly in line with the 12.25% return of the MSCI USA IMI Materials Index. The ETF’s market price gained 12.31% over the same time frame, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. Materials is a cyclical sector that’s driven by the ups and downs of commodity prices, which, in turn, tend to respond to broader economic conditions. During the period, accommodative central banks, an ongoing economic recovery in developed markets and easing concerns about emerging markets following a scare early in 2014 were positives for materials stocks. The MSCI sector index was particularly sensitive to the performance of four chemicals groups – commodity chemicals, diversified chemicals, specialty chemicals, and fertilizers & agricultural chemicals – because they jointly accounted for about 58% of the index during the period. Commodity chemicals turned in an especially strong result, advancing roughly 30%. One of the success stories in this group was Netherlands-based LyondellBasell Industries. In diversified chemicals, one noteworthy contributor was Dow Chemical. Elsewhere, the stock of aluminum producer Alcoa was a standout, posting a gain of 77%. At the same time, shares of another diversified chemicals producer, FMC, did poorly. Gold miner Newmont Mining also lost ground, reflecting a relatively flat price for gold. Iron ore and metallurgical coal producer Cliffs Natural Resources weighed on performance as well.

Note to shareholders: Effective May 30, 2014, the fund eliminated the 25% limitation of assets invested in securities of a single issuer.

Performance

 

The information provided in the tables below shows you the performance of Fidelity® MSCI Telecommunication Services Index ETF, with comparisons over different time periods to the fund’s relevant benchmarks, including an appropriate broad-based market index. Seeing the returns over different time periods can help you assess the fund’s performance against relevant measurements. The performance information includes cumulative total returns and is further explained in this section.*

The fund’s net asset value (NAV) performance is based on the NAV calculated each business day. It is calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing investment company shares as of the close of regular trading hours on NYSE Arca, Inc. (NYSE Arca) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time). The fund’s market price performance is based on the daily closing price of the shares of the fund on NYSE Arca. Since ETFs are bought and sold at prices set by the market – which can result in a premium or discount to NAV – the returns calculated using market price (market return) can differ from those calculated using NAV (NAV return). For information on these differences, please visit Fidelity.com or call Fidelity. The $10,000 table and the fund’s returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption or selling of fund shares. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® MSCI Telecommunication Services Index ETF

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value advanced 8.57%, compared with the 8.21% return of the MSCI USA IMI Telecommunication Services 25/50 Index. The ETF’s market price gained 8.57% over the same time frame, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. The period was marked by continued vigorous competition among the four major U.S. wireless carriers (AT&T, Verizon Communications, Sprint and T-Mobile), with each attempting to lure customers by offering various incentives to switch providers. Demand for wireless bandwidth continued its upward trend, and yield-hungry investors were attracted to the substantial dividends being paid by some telecom stocks; however, these positives were tempered by a decline in consumer spending in the sector combined with rising capital expenditures as firms looked to expand and improve their networks. The large benchmark-dominating integrated telecommunication services segment outperformed the broader sector during the period. Here, index heavyweights AT&T and Verizon Communications – which combined made up nearly half the sector index, on average – lifted performance. Additionally, another integrated telecom name, CenturyLink, notably boosted the group’s return. Alternative carriers also bettered the index, with Frontier Communications and tw telecom adding to industry results. On the flip side, the smaller, generally more volatile wireless telecom names fared the worst. In this category, NII Holdings and NTELOS Holdings detracted. NII, and its more familiar Nextel brand, lost more than 90% of its value during the period on a series of challenges, while NTELOS, operator of nTelos Wireless and Dish; detracted due to a revenue miss. NII Holdings was not held at period end.

Note to shareholders: Effective May 30, 2014, the fund eliminated the 25% limitation of assets invested in securities of a single issuer.

Fidelity® MSCI Utilities Index ETF

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

 

From its inception on October 21, 2013, through July 31, 2014, the exchange-traded fund’s (ETF) net asset value rose 10.13%, roughly in line with the 10.24% return of the MSCI USA IMI Utilities Index. The ETF’s market price gained 10.13% over the same time frame, while the broad-market S&P 500® Index returned 12.42%. There was a broad rally in all segments of the utilities sector during the period. Utilities operating in both regulated and unregulated markets performed well, regardless of the extent of regulation or how commodity-sensitive the companies were. Utilities companies that tend to be more sensitive to power prices benefited from their rise. Regulated companies were buoyed by lower interest rates and heightened volatility, as investors sought more-stable stocks. The best-performing segment of the MSCI sector index was oil & gas storage & transport, a small group that benefited from continued growth in U.S. natural gas production. The top contributor to absolute performance – primarily because it represented about 6% of the index – was Florida electric utility Nextera Energy. The company’s share price soared in June, as investors responded positively to the firm’s joint natural gas pipeline project with EQT and the announcement of the firm’s initial public offering (IPO) of an alternative energy master limited partnership (MLP). MLPs combine the tax benefits of a limited partnership with the liquidity of a publicly traded company. Chicago-based electric utility Exelon’s stock rose due to the company’s upward earnings revisions resulting from rising power prices. The share price of Washington, D.C., utility Pepco Holdings spiked in late April when Exelon announced its intention to buy the firm. By far the biggest negative impact during the period came from Ohio’s FirstEnergy, which tumbled in November because investors believed the company’s plan to spend $2.8 billion over four years for an electricity transmission project could jeopardize the company’s dividend payout.

Note to shareholders: Effective May 30, 2014, the fund eliminated the 25% limitation of assets invested in securities of a single issuer.

Shareholder Expense Example (Unaudited)

 

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

The actual expense Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested for the one-half year period and held for the entire period (February 1, 2014 to July 31, 2014). The hypothetical expense Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested for the one-half year period (February 1, 2014 to July 31, 2014).

Actual Expenses

For each fund, the first line of the accompanying table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for each Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. In addition, each Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying money market fund, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying money market fund. These fees and expenses are not included in each Fund’s annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimates in the table below.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

For each fund, the second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. In addition, each Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying money market fund, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying money market fund. These fees and expenses are not included in each Fund’s annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimates in the table below.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

B    Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.

 

C    The amount shown for a share outstanding does not correspond with the aggregate net gain (loss) on investments for the period due to the timing of share transactions in relation to fluctuating market values of the investments of a Fund.

 

D    Total returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized.

 

E    Annualized.

 

F    Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the Fund. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed by the investment adviser or reductions from brokerage service arrangements or reductions from other expense offset arrangements and do not represent the amount paid by the Fund during periods when reimbursements or reductions occur. Expenses net of fee waivers reflect expenses after reimbursement by the investment adviser but prior to reductions from brokerage service arrangements or other expense offset arrangements. Expenses net of all reductions represent the net expenses paid by the Fund but do not include expenses of the investment companies in which the fund invests.

 

G    Amount does not include the portfolio activity of any underlying funds.

 

H    Amount not annualized.

 

I    Portfolio turnover rate excludes securities received or delivered in-kind.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended July 31, 2014

 

1. Organization.

Fidelity MSCI Consumer Discretionary Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Consumer Staples Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Energy Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Financials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Health Care Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Industrials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Information Technology Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Materials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Telecommunication Services Index ETF and Fidelity MSCI Utilities Index ETF (the Funds) are non-diversified exchange-traded funds of Fidelity Covington Trust (the Trust) and are authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

2. Significant Accounting Policies.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Funds:

Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. In accordance with valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board of Trustees (the Board), each Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing vendors or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Fidelity SelectCo, LLC (SelectCo) Fair Value Committee (the Committee), in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee oversees each Fund’s valuation policies and procedures and is responsible for approving and reporting to the Board all fair value determinations.

Each Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)

Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions based on the best information available)

Valuation techniques used to value each Fund’s investments by major category are as follows:

Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing vendor on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy in these circumstances. Utilizing these techniques may result in transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.

Investments in open-end mutual funds (Underlying Funds) are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. If an unaffiliated open-end mutual fund’s NAV is unavailable, shares of that fund may be valued by another method that the Board believes reflects fair value in accordance with the Board’s fair value pricing policies and is categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level, as of July 31, 2014, is included at the end of each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds’ investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of NYSE Arca, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as a fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Subsequent to ex-dividend date a fund determines the components of these distributions, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. Interest income is accrued as earned.

2. Significant Accounting Policies – continued

 

Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of each Fund and do not include any expenses associated with the Underlying Funds. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. As of July 31, 2014, each Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is each Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. A fund’s federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. Realized gain or loss resulting from in-kind redemptions is not taxable to the Fund and is not distributed to shareholders of the Fund. Foreign taxes are provided for based on each Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.

Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.

Book-tax differences are primarily due to passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), market discount and redemptions in kind, capital loss carryforwards, losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

The federal tax cost of investment securities and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows for each Fund:

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. SelectCo provides each Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee that is based on an annual rate of .12% of each Fund’s average net assets. Under the management contract, SelectCo pays all other expenses, except the compensation of the independent Trustees and certain other expenses such as interest expense. The management fee paid to SelectCo is reduced by an amount equal to the fees and expenses paid by each fund to the independent Trustees.

Sub-Adviser. BlackRock Fund Advisors (BFA), serves as sub-adviser for the Funds. BFA provides discretionary investment advisory services to the Funds and is paid by SelectCo for providing these services.

5. Share Transactions.

The Funds issue and redeem shares at Net Asset Value only with certain authorized participants in large increments known as Creation Units. Purchases of Creation Units are made by tendering a basket of designated stocks to a fund and redemption proceeds are paid with a basket of securities from a fund’s portfolio with a balancing cash component to equate the market value of the basket of securities delivered or redeemed to the NAV per Creation Unit on the transaction date. Cash may be substituted equivalent to the value of certain securities generally when they are not available in sufficient quantity for delivery. A fund’s shares are available in smaller increments to investors in the secondary market at market prices and may be subject to commissions. Authorized participants pay a transaction fee to the shareholder servicing agent when purchasing and redeeming Creation Units of a fund. The transaction fee is used to defray the costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units.

6. Other.

The Funds’ organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Funds. In the normal course of business, the Funds may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Trustees of Fidelity Covington Trust and Shareholders of Fidelity MSCI Consumer Discretionary Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Consumer Staples Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Energy Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Financials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Health Care Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Industrials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Information Technology Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Materials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Telecommunication Services Index ETF and Fidelity MSCI Utilities Index ETF:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Fidelity MSCI Consumer Discretionary Index, ETF, Fidelity MSCI Consumer Staples Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Energy Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Financials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Health Care Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Industrials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Information Technology Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Materials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Telecommunication Services Index ETF and Fidelity MSCI Utilities Index ETF (the Funds), each a fund of the Fidelity Covington Trust, including the schedules of investments, as of July 31, 2014, and the related statements of operations, the statements of changes in net assets and financial highlights for the period October 21, 2013 (commencement of operations) to July 31, 2014. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity MSCI Consumer Discretionary Index, ETF, Fidelity MSCI Consumer Staples Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Energy Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Financials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Health Care Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Industrials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Information Technology Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Materials Index ETF, Fidelity MSCI Telecommunication Services Index ETF and Fidelity MSCI Utilities Index ETF as of July 31, 2014, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for the period October 21, 2013 (commencement of operations) to July 31, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Premium/Discount Analysis (Unaudited)

 

Shares of each fund are listed on NYSE Arca and can be bought and sold on the secondary market at market prices. Although the market price is expected to approximate the fund’s NAV, it is possible that the market price and NAV will vary significantly. The closing market price is the daily closing price as reported on NYSE Arca.

Premiums or discounts are the differences (expressed as a basis point differential with 1 basis point equaling 1/100 of 1%) between the fund’s NAV and closing market price. A premium indicates that the closing market price is trading above the NAV. A discount indicates that the closing market price is trading below the NAV. A discrepancy may exist with respect to the timing of when the NAV is calculated and the determination of the closing market price.

The chart below presents information about the differences between each fund’s daily closing market price and each fund’s NAV.

Trustees and Officers (Unaudited)

 

The Trustees and officers of the trust and funds, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs each fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund’s activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund’s performance. Each of the Trustees oversee 74 funds.

The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. The officers hold office without limit in time, except that any officer may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years.

Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Funds’ Trustees. The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees’ commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.

In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board’s conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.

Board Structure and Oversight Function. Brian B. Hogan is an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chairman, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chairman and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. Michael E. Wiley serves as Chairman of the Independent Trustees and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.

Fidelity funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds’ Board oversees Fidelity’s sector portfolios. Other Boards oversee Fidelity’s equity and high income funds, and Fidelity’s investment grade bond, money market, and asset allocation funds. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity funds overseen by each Board.

The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds’ activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged SelectCo and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds’ business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through SelectCo, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds’ exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board’s committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds’ activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations and Audit Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds’ Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), SelectCo’s internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds’ Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board’s committees, as appropriate. The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under “Standing Committees of the Funds’ Trustees.”

Table of Contents

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

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The trust’s Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by a fund’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to the operations or financial reporting of the fund. Prior to the commencement of any audit or non-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.

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

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

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

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

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