Dear Shareholder,
The 12-month reporting period as of March 31, 2022 saw a continuation of the resurgent growth that followed the initial coronavirus (or “COVID-19”) pandemic reopening, albeit at a slower pace. The global economy weathered the emergence of several variant strains and the resulting peaks and troughs in infections amid optimism that increasing vaccinations and economic adaptation could help contain the pandemic’s disruptions. However, rapid changes in consumer spending led to supply constraints and elevated inflation. Moreover, while the foremost effect of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has been a severe humanitarian crisis, the invasion has presented challenges for both investors and policymakers.
Equity prices were mixed, as persistently high inflation drove investors’ expectations for higher interest rates, which particularly weighed on relatively high valuation growth stocks and economically sensitive small-capitalization stocks. Overall, small-capitalization U.S. stocks declined, while large-capitalization U.S. stocks posted a strong advance. International equities from developed markets gained slightly, although emerging market stocks declined, pressured by rising interest rates and a strengthening U.S. dollar.
The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield (which is inversely related to bond prices) rose during the reporting period as the economy expanded rapidly and inflation reached its highest annualized reading in decades. The corporate bond market also faced inflationary headwinds, although the improving economy assuaged credit concerns and high-yield corporate bonds consequently declined less than investment-grade corporate bonds.
The U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”), acknowledging that inflation is growing faster than expected, raised interest rates in March 2022, the first increase of this business cycle. Furthermore, the Fed wound down its bond-buying programs and raised the prospect of reversing the flow and reducing its balance sheet. Continued high inflation and the Fed’s new tone led many analysts to anticipate that the Fed will continue to raise interest rates multiple times throughout the year.
Looking ahead, however, the horrific war in Ukraine has significantly clouded the outlook for the global economy, leading to major volatility in energy and metal markets. Sanctions on Russia, Europe’s top energy supplier, and general wartime disruption are likely to drive already-high commodity prices even higher. Sharp increases in energy prices will exacerbate inflationary pressure while also constraining economic growth. Combating inflation without stifling a recovery, while buffering against ongoing supply and price shocks amid the ebb and flow of the pandemic, will be an especially challenging environment for setting effective monetary policy. Despite the likelihood of more rate increases on the horizon, we believe the Fed will err on the side of protecting employment, even at the expense of higher inflation.
In this environment, we favor an overweight to equities, as valuations have become more attractive and inflation-adjusted interest rates remain low. Sectors that are better poised to manage the transition to a lower-carbon world, such as technology and health care, are particularly attractive in the long term. We favor U.S. equities due to strong earnings momentum, while Japanese equities should benefit from supportive monetary and fiscal policy. We are underweight credit overall, but inflation-protected U.S. Treasuries, Asian fixed income, and emerging market local-currency bonds offer potential opportunities for additional yield. We believe that international diversification and a focus on sustainability and quality can help provide portfolio resilience.
Overall, our view is that investors need to think globally, extend their scope across a broad array of asset classes, and be nimble as market conditions change. We encourage you to talk with your financial advisor and visit iShares.com for further insight about investing in today’s markets.
Sincerely,

Domestic Market Overview
U.S. stocks advanced for the 12 months ended March 31, 2022 (“reporting period”), when the Russell 3000® Index, a broad measure of U.S. equity market performance, returned 11.92%. The strengthening economy supported equities, as high consumer spending drove robust growth, and most remaining coronavirus pandemic-related restrictions were eased. Increased economic activity led to strong corporate earnings as companies reaped the benefits of the recovery. Nonetheless, significant challenges emerged, particularly during the second half of the reporting period, including high inflation, rising interest rates, and the impacts of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
The U.S. economic recovery was powered primarily by consumers, who were supported by strong household balance sheets. Prior to the beginning of the reporting period, fiscal stimulus and business closures led to record-high personal savings rates. This allowed consumers to spend at an elevated level throughout much of the reporting period, as pent-up demand was released. The ensuing acceleration in economic activity allowed the U.S. to reach and then surpass its pre-pandemic output level. Hiring increased as businesses restored capacity, and unemployment decreased substantially, falling to 3.6% in March 2022.
The growing economy and rapid increases in consumer spending drove a significant rise in inflation. Supply chains for many goods were disrupted by the pandemic and were unable to quickly adapt to the rapid rebound in demand. In one prominent example of this dynamic, a global shortage of semiconductors created bottlenecks in the production of many goods, including automobiles. Consequently, the price of used cars rose sharply during the reporting period and was a notable factor in overall inflation. Oil prices also rose significantly as demand increased, and the supply of oil was constrained by a lack of investment. The strong job market led to higher wages, particularly at the lower end of the market. These factors led to higher prices in many areas of the economy. By the end of the reporting period the consumer price index, a widely used measure of prices in the U.S., grew at the fastest rate since 1982.
Rising inflation led to a shift in policy from the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank (“Fed”). As the reporting period began, the Fed was using accommodative monetary policy to stimulate the economy. Short-term interest rates were kept at near zero levels, and the Fed used bond-buying programs to stabilize debt markets. However, rising prices led the Fed to tighten monetary policy in the second half of the reporting period in an attempt to prevent runaway inflation. The Fed slowed and then ended its bond-buying activities and discussed plans to begin reducing its balance sheet by selling bonds later in 2022. In March 2022, it raised short-term interest rates and indicated that further increases could be necessary. Interest rates rose significantly in anticipation of further tightening, leading to higher borrowing costs for businesses.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in late February 2022 raised the prospect of substantial disruptions to the global economy and increased uncertainty in financial markets. The invasion was met with widespread condemnation and sanctions imposed by many countries on the Russian state, businesses, and individuals. This led to sharp volatility in energy markets, as Russia is a top producer of both oil and natural gas. Furthermore, both Russia and Ukraine are notable exporters of wheat, and the war’s disruption led to concerns surrounding food prices.

Fund Summary as of March 31, 2022 (continued) | iShares® Micro-Cap ETF |
Portfolio Management Commentary
Micro-capitalization U.S. stocks declined meaningfully for the reporting period despite strong economic growth and robust consumer spending. The healthcare sector was the leading detractor from the Index’s return, as the stocks of many smaller companies in the sector declined. Rising interest rates worked against companies early in the product development process, as investors sought more predictable cash flows as the cost of borrowing increased. The pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and life sciences industry declined amid stiff competition from companies working to develop new treatments in similar areas. Merger and acquisition activity also slowed significantly, dampening investor interest in smaller companies that could be acquired by larger firms. Additionally, a relative dearth of positive news and muted enthusiasm for stocks with high valuations and minimal earnings pressured the industry.
Stocks in the consumer discretionary sector detracted notably from the Index’s performance despite the overall increase in consumer spending. The consumer durables industry faced headwinds as higher input costs led to reduced profits despite rising sales. Rising prices also challenged the specialty retail industry, as inflation increased the wholesale cost of goods for retailers. The information technology sector also detracted, as higher inflation and interest rates disproportionately pressured small-capitalization information technology stocks.
On the upside, stocks in the financials sector contributed the most to the Index’s return. Regional banks advanced amid growth in loans, a reduction in the probability of loan defaults, and higher interest rates, which allowed banks to charge more for loans. The energy sector also contributed amid higher prices for energy commodities. Rising oil and gas prices benefited companies in the oil, gas, and consumable fuels industry, as increased cash flow allowed companies to reduce debt while minimizing spending.

Mid- and small-capitalization U.S. stocks advanced marginally for the reporting period amid strong economic growth and robust consumer spending. The energy sector contributed the most to the Index’s return, as the rebounding economy accelerated demand for energy while supply remained constrained, leading to higher prices for energy commodities. The war in Ukraine drove further gains in oil prices as sanctions on Russia led to increased uncertainty surrounding supply. Rising oil and gas prices drove increased cash flow in the oil, gas, and consumable fuels industry, allowing companies to reduce their debt while minimizing spending.
The real estate sector was a notable contributor to the Index’s return amid a nationwide rise in both residential and commercial property prices. Despite rising interest rates, borrowing costs were historically low for much of the reporting period, which benefited real estate companies that rely heavily on debt financing.
On the downside, the healthcare sector was the leading detractor from the Index’s return, as the stocks of many smaller companies in the sector declined. Rising interest rates worked against companies early in the product development process, as investors sought more predictable cash flows as the cost of borrowing increased.

Stocks in the consumer discretionary sector also detracted from the Index’s performance despite an overall increase in consumer spending. The consumer durables industry declined amid investor expectations of a downturn in the housing market. The specialty retail industry faced headwinds from rising prices, as inflation increased the wholesale cost of goods for retailers.

Portfolio Management Commentary
U.S. stocks advanced solidly for the reporting period amid strong economic growth and robust consumer spending. The information technology sector contributed the most to the Index’s return, driven primarily by the strong performance of the largest companies in the sector. These companies benefited from network effects, which allowed them to use existing products and services to attract new customers. The technology hardware and equipment industry was the top contributor amid strong growth in sales and profits. Increased sales of smartphones with 5G capability drove profits in the industry, as demand for these products outstripped supply, helped by discounts from wireless carriers. Increased sales of services, such as digital downloads and payment processing, also boosted the industry. The semiconductors and semiconductor equipment industry also gained amid a global shortage of semiconductors. High consumer demand for products that use semiconductors, including personal computers, video cards, and automobiles, led makers of semiconductors to ramp up production to record highs, boosting revenues.
The energy sector was a notable contributor to the Index’s return, as the rebounding economy accelerated demand for energy while supply remained constrained, leading to higher prices for energy commodities. The war in Ukraine drove further gains in oil prices. Rising oil and gas prices drove increased cash flow in the oil, gas, and consumable fuels industry, allowing companies to reduce their debt while minimizing spending.
The healthcare sector also contributed to the Index’s performance, buoyed by earnings growth. Elective medical procedures, which represent an important source of revenue for care providers, increased from pandemic-induced lows. The widespread adoption of COVID-19 vaccines and successful development of antiviral medications and antibody therapies to treat COVID-19 boosted sales for pharmaceuticals companies.

Portfolio Management Commentary
Mid-capitalization U.S. stocks advanced for the reporting period amid strong economic growth and robust consumer spending. The energy sector contributed the most to the Index’s return, as the rebounding economy accelerated demand for energy while supply remained constrained, leading to higher prices for energy commodities. The war in Ukraine drove further gains in oil prices as sanctions on Russia led to increased uncertainty surrounding supply. Rising oil and gas prices drove increased cash flow in the oil, gas, and consumable fuels industry, allowing companies to reduce their debt while minimizing spending.
The real estate sector contributed meaningfully to the Index’s return amid a nationwide rise in residential property prices. Rising rents and high occupancy rates benefited real estate companies with residential properties, as younger workers moved out of family homes and into rental properties, boosting demand.
Stocks in the financials sector also contributed meaningfully, led by the insurance industry. As premiums and income grew, many insurers were able to increase insurance rates in an environment of higher inflation. The capital markets industry advanced amid growing assets under management and low interest rates, which facilitated borrowing to finance acquisitions. The materials sector was another contributor, as companies rebuilding their stocks of materials boosted demand, leading to strong earnings growth for materials companies.
On the downside, the consumer discretionary and communication services sectors detracted from the Index’s performance. The consumer durables industry faced headwinds amid slowing growth of home exercise equipment. Retailers also declined amid inflationary pressure, which weighed on earnings. The communication services sector declined as the media and entertainment industry was constrained by declining users on a photo-sharing platform. Changing consumer behavior also pressured makers of home-media entertainment devices as more customers enjoyed activities outside the home.

Fund Summary as of March 31, 2022 (continued) | iShares® Russell Mid-Cap Growth ETF |
Portfolio Management Commentary
Growth-oriented mid-capitalization U.S. stocks, which derive a significant portion of their prices from investors’ expectations of future growth, declined marginally for the reporting period. Growth stocks faced significant headwinds relative to other equities as they are particularly sensitive to interest rates, which rose as the Fed moved to a less accommodative monetary policy. Persistent inflation and the war in Ukraine led to concerns about slower economic growth, which also weighed on growth stocks.
The communication services sector was the largest detractor from the Index’s performance. The media and entertainment industry was negatively impacted by declining users on a photo-sharing platform amid stiff competition. Changing consumer behavior pressured makers of home-media entertainment devices, as more customers enjoyed outside activities. A slowdown in user growth for subscriptions to streaming audio also weighed on the industry.
Stocks in the consumer discretionary sector also detracted, despite an overall increase in consumer spending. The internet and direct marketing industry declined, as the high rate of growth that began with the pandemic receded amid slowing e-commerce, including sales for food delivery, goods, and used cars. Sales of home exercise equipment slowed as more people returned to gyms, weighing on the consumer durables industry.
On the upside, the information technology sector contributed the most to the Index’s return, led by the software and services industry. Makers of cybersecurity software benefited from increased sales, as more companies invested in security products to protect their online activities. The semiconductors and semiconductor equipment industry gained, as a global shortage of semiconductors helped support profits in the industry. The energy sector also contributed, as the oil, gas, and consumable fuels industry benefited directly from rising oil and gas prices, which drove increased cash flow and allowed companies to reduce their debt.

Fund Summary as of March 31, 2022 (continued) | iShares® Russell Mid-Cap Value ETF |
Portfolio Management Commentary
Value-oriented mid-capitalization U.S. stocks advanced solidly for the reporting period amid strong economic growth and robust consumer spending. The energy sector was the leading contributor to the Index’s return amid higher prices for energy commodities. As the global economy rebounded following the initial disruptions of the coronavirus pandemic, demand for energy accelerated while supply remained constrained. Consequently, the prices of oil, natural gas, and coal all rose notably during the reporting period. The war in Ukraine drove further gains in oil prices as sanctions on Russia led to increased uncertainty surrounding supply. The oil, gas, and consumable fuels industry benefited directly from rising oil and gas prices, which drove increased cash flow, allowing companies to reduce their debt loads while minimizing investment spending.
The real estate sector was another significant contributor to the Index’s performance amid a nationwide rise in residential property prices. Despite rising interest rates, borrowing costs were historically low for much of the reporting period, benefiting the real estate sector, which relies heavily on debt financing. Rising rents and high occupancy rates benefited real estate companies with residential properties, as younger workers moved out of family homes and into rental properties, boosting demand.
Stocks in the financials sector also contributed to the Index’s performance, as the strengthening economy and higher interest rates drove earnings growth. The insurance industry was the primary source of strength, continuing its recovery from the adverse effects of the pandemic. Premiums and income grew in the industry, as many insurers were able to increase insurance rates in an environment of higher inflation. The consumer durables industry faced headwinds as higher input costs led to reduced profits despite rising sales.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. Financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and trading in many instruments has been disrupted. These circumstances may continue for an extended period of time and may continue to affect adversely the value and liquidity of each Fund’s investments. As a result, current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available at iShares.com. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the redemption or sale of fund shares. The investment return and principal value of shares will vary with changes in market conditions. Shares may be worth more or less than their original cost when they are redeemed or sold in the market. Performance for certain funds may reflect a waiver of a portion of investment advisory fees. Without such a waiver, performance would have been lower.
Net asset value or “NAV” is the value of one share of a fund as calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. Beginning August 10, 2020, the price used to calculate market return (“Market Price”) is the closing price. Prior to August 10, 2020, Market Price was determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest ask on the primary stock exchange on which shares of a fund are listed for trading, as of the time that such fund’s NAV is calculated. Since shares of a fund may not trade in the secondary market until after the fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary market trading in shares of the fund, the NAV of the fund is used as a proxy for the Market Price to calculate market returns. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested at Market Price and NAV, respectively.
An index is a statistical composite that tracks a specified financial market or sector. Unlike a fund, an index does not actually hold a portfolio of securities and therefore does not incur the expenses incurred by a fund. These expenses negatively impact fund performance. Also, market returns do not include brokerage commissions that may be payable on secondary market transactions. If brokerage commissions were included, market returns would be lower.
Shareholders of each Fund may incur the following charges: (1) transactional expenses, including brokerage commissions on purchases and sales of fund shares and (2) ongoing expenses, including management fees and other fund expenses. The expense examples shown (which are based on a hypothetical investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held through the end of the period) are intended to assist shareholders both in calculating expenses based on an investment in each Fund and in comparing these expenses with similar costs of investing in other funds.
The expense examples provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. Annualized expense ratios reflect contractual and voluntary fee waivers, if any. In order to estimate the expenses a shareholder paid during the period covered by this report, shareholders can divide their account value by $1,000 and then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period.”
The expense examples also provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses. In order to assist shareholders in comparing the ongoing expenses of investing in a Funds and other funds, compare the 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
The expenses shown in the expense examples are intended to highlight shareholders’ ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional expenses, such as brokerage commissions and other fees paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the hypothetical examples are useful in comparing ongoing expenses only and will not help shareholders determine the relative total expenses of owning different funds. If these transactional expenses were included, shareholder expenses would have been higher.
