Annual
Report
Dear
Shareholder,
The
12-month
reporting
period
as
of
July
31,
2022
saw
the
emergence
of
significant
challenges
that
disrupted
the
economic
recovery
and
strong
financial
markets.
The
U.S.
economy
shrank
in
the
first
half
of
2022,
ending
the
run
of
robust
growth
that
followed
the
reopening
of
global
economies
and
the
development
of
COVID-19
vaccines.
Changes
in
consumer
spending
patterns
and
a
tight
labor
market
led
to
elevated
inflation,
which
reached
a
40-year
high.
Moreover,
while
the
foremost
effect
of
Russia’s
invasion
of
Ukraine
has
been
a
severe
humanitarian
crisis,
the
ongoing
war
continued
to
present
challenges
for
both
investors
and
policymakers.
Equity
prices
fell
as
interest
rates
rose,
particularly
weighing
on
relatively
high-valuation
growth
stocks
and
economically
sensitive
small-capitalization
stocks.
While
both
large-
and
small-capitalization
U.S.
stocks
fell,
declines
for
small-capitalization
U.S.
stocks
were
steeper.
Both
emerging
market
stocks
and
international
equities
from
developed
markets
fell
significantly,
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
notably
during
the
reporting
period
as
investors
reacted
to
higher
inflation
and
attempted
to
anticipate
its
impact
on
future
interest
rate
changes.
The
corporate
bond
market
also
faced
inflationary
headwinds,
and
increasing
uncertainty
led
to
higher
corporate
bond
spreads
(the
difference
in
yield
between
U.S.
Treasuries
and
similarly-dated
corporate
bonds).
The
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
“Fed”),
acknowledging
that
inflation
is
growing
faster
than
expected,
raised
interest
rates
four
times
while
indicating
that
additional
rate
hikes
were
likely.
Furthermore,
the
Fed
wound
down
its
bond-buying
programs
and
began
to
reduce
its
balance
sheet.
Continued
high
inflation
and
the
Fed’s
statements
led
many
analysts
to
anticipate
that
interest
rates
have
room
to
rise
before
peaking,
although
investors’
inflation
expectations
began
to
decline
near
the
end
of
the
period.
The
horrific
war
in
Ukraine
has
significantly
clouded
the
outlook
for
the
global
economy,
leading
to
major
volatility
in
energy
and
metals
markets.
Sanctions
on
Russia,
Europe’s
top
energy
supplier,
and
general
wartime
disruption
have
magnified
supply
problems
for
key
commodities.
We
believe
elevated
energy
prices
will
continue
to
exacerbate
inflationary
pressure
while
also
constraining
economic
growth.
Combating
inflation
without
stifling
a
recovery,
while
buffering
against
ongoing
supply
and
price
shocks,
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
ultimately
err
on
the
side
of
protecting
employment,
even
at
the
expense
of
higher
inflation.
In
the
meantime,
however,
we
believe
that
we
are
likely
to
see
a
period
of
slowing
growth
paired
with
relatively
high
inflation.
In
this
environment,
while
we
favor
an
overweight
to
equities
in
the
long-term,
the
market’s
concerns
over
excessive
rate
hikes
from
central
banks
moderate
our
outlook.
Furthermore,
the
energy
shock
and
a
deteriorating
economic
backdrop
in
China
and
Europe
are
likely
to
challenge
corporate
earnings,
so
we
are
underweight
equities
overall
in
the
near-term.
We
take
the
opposite
view
on
credit,
where
higher
spreads
provide
near-term
opportunities,
while
the
likelihood
of
higher
inflation
leads
us
to
take
an
underweight
stance
on
credit
in
the
long-term.
We
believe
that
investment-grade
corporates,
U.K.
gilts,
local-currency
emerging
market
debt,
and
inflation-protected
bonds
(particularly
in
Europe)
offer
strong
opportunities
for
a
six-
to
twelve-month
horizon.
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.

encourage
you

Global
Market
Overview
Global
equity
markets
declined
during
the
12
months
ended
July
31,
2022
(“reporting
period”).
The
MSCI
ACWI,
a
broad
global
equity
index
that
includes
both
developed
and
emerging
markets,
returned
-10.48%
in
U.S.
dollar
terms
for
the
reporting
period.
For
the
first
five
months
of
the
reporting
period,
economic
recovery
supported
stocks
in
most
regions
of
the
world.
The
global
economy
continued
to
rebound
from
the
impact
of
restrictions
imposed
at
the
beginning
of
the
coronavirus
pandemic,
as
mitigation
and
adaptation
allowed
most
economic
activity
to
continue.
However,
substantial
challenges
emerged
at
the
beginning
of
2022,
which
negatively
affected
stock
prices.
Inflation
rose
significantly
in
many
countries,
reducing
consumers’
purchasing
power
and
leading
many
central
banks
to
tighten
monetary
policy.
Russia’s
invasion
of
Ukraine
presented
a
further
challenge
to
the
global
economy,
disrupting
important
commodities
markets.
The
U.S.
economy
grew
briskly
over
the
final
half
of
2021,
powered
primarily
by
consumer
spending.
Record-high
personal
savings
rates
allowed
consumers
to
spend
at
an
elevated
level,
releasing
pent-up
demand
for
goods
and
services.
Growth
subsequently
stalled
in
the
first
half
of
2022,
and
the
economy
contracted
amid
lower
inventories
and
faltering
business
investment.
Despite
the
economic
downturn,
unemployment
declined
substantially,
falling
to
3.5%
in
July
2022
—
identical
to
the
pre-pandemic
rate
in
February
2020.
Although
high
inflation
negatively
impacted
consumer
sentiment,
which
declined
significantly,
consumer
spending
continued
to
increase.
Rising
inflation
led
to
a
shift
in
policy
from
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(“the
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
during
the
reporting
period
in
an
attempt
to
prevent
runaway
inflation.
The
Fed
slowed
and
then
ended
its
bond-buying
activities,
finally
reversing
course
as
it
began
to
reduce
its
balance
sheet
in
June
2022.
In
March
2022,
the
Fed
began
to
raise
short-term
interest
rates,
followed
by
three
more
increases
for
a
total
increase
of
225
basis
points,
the
most
rapid
rise
in
decades.
Interest
rates
rose
significantly
in
response,
leading
to
higher
borrowing
costs
for
businesses.
Stocks
declined
in
Europe
and
economic
growth
stalled,
with
the
Eurozone
economy
slowing
substantially
beginning
in
the
fourth
quarter
of
2021.
Significantly
higher
inflation
and
Russia’s
invasion
of
Ukraine
negatively
impacted
equities.
Russia
is
an
important
trading
partner
with
many
European
countries,
and
new
sanctions
imposed
limits
on
certain
types
of
trade
with
Russia.
Investors
became
concerned
that
the
sharp
rise
in
energy
prices
during
the
reporting
period
would
constrain
economic
growth,
as
Europe
relies
on
imported
energy
for
much
of
its
industrial
and
heating
needs.
The
European
Central
Bank
(“ECB”)
responded
to
elevated
inflation
by
raising
interest
rates
in
July
2022,
the
first
such
increase
in
over
a
decade.
Despite
relatively
low
inflation
by
global
standards,
Asia-Pacific
stocks
declined
significantly.
Chinese
stocks
faced
significant
headwinds
amid
regulatory
interventions
by
the
Chinese
government
and
strict
lockdowns
following
COVID-19
outbreaks.
Japanese
stocks
also
declined
amid
an
economic
contraction
in
the
first
quarter
of
2022
and
a
sharp
decline
in
the
Japanese
yen
relative
to
the
U.S.
dollar.
Emerging
market
stocks
declined
substantially,
as
higher
interest
rates
and
a
strengthening
U.S.
dollar
raised
the
cost
of
borrowing
in
many
emerging
economies.

iShares
Annual
Report
to
Shareholders
Portfolio
Management
Commentary
The
Index’s
mix
of
stock
and
bond
funds
designed
to
represent
a
growth
target
risk
allocation
strategy
declined
for
the
reporting
period.
The
equity
allocation,
which
represented
approximately
80%
of
the
Index
on
average,
was
the
largest
detractor
from
the
Index’s
return.
Stocks
in
international
developed
markets
declined,
as
global
growth
cooled
in
an
environment
of
high
inflation,
rising
interest
rates,
and
volatility
in
commodities
markets.
In
Japan,
which
endured
two
separate
quarters
of
economic
contraction
during
the
reporting
period,
the
weakening
Japanese
yen
negatively
impacted
the
value
of
stocks
in
U.S.
dollar
terms.
The
industrials
sector
declined
the
most
amid
a
notable
slowdown
in
industrial
production.
German
stocks
also
detracted
from
the
Index’s
return,
as
weakness
in
the
automobiles
industry
weighed
on
the
consumer
discretionary
sector.
French
stocks
also
faced
headwinds
as
lockdowns
in
China
negatively
impacted
demand
for
luxury
products
in
the
consumer
discretionary
sector.
Large
capitalization
U.S.
stocks
declined,
particularly
in
the
communication
services
sector.
A
change
to
the
tracking
data
policies
of
a
popular
mobile
platform
impeded
the
ability
of
social
media
companies
to
target
specific
customer
demographics,
reducing
the
value
of
the
advertising
they
sell.
Consequently,
revenues
declined,
weighing
heavily
on
stocks
in
the
growth-oriented
interactive
media
and
services
industry.
Emerging
market
equities
also
declined
substantially,
particularly
Asian
stocks.
China
was
a
notable
detractor,
as
significant
lockdowns
to
prevent
the
spread
of
COVID-19
weighed
on
economic
activity.
Meanwhile,
product
delays
and
cooling
demand
for
some
consumer
electronics
drove
negative
performance
in
South
Korean
stocks.
Within
the
bond
allocation,
which
represented
approximately
20%
of
the
Index
on
average,
U.S.
bonds
detracted
the
most
from
the
Index’s
performance,
as
the
Fed
raised
short-term
interest
rates
four
times,
diminishing
the
value
of
previously
issued
bonds.
Consequently,
all
bond
categories
detracted
from
the
Index’s
performance,
especially
corporate
and
government
bonds.
Rising
interest
rates
drove
increased
yields
(which
move
inversely
to
bond
prices)
on
corporate
bonds
and
raised
borrowing
costs
for
issuers.

Annual
Report

Portfolio
Management
Commentary
The
Index’s
mix
of
stock
and
bond
funds
designed
to
represent
a
conservative
target
risk
allocation
strategy
declined
for
the
reporting
period.
The
bond
allocation,
which
represented
approximately
70%
of
the
Index
on
average,
detracted
the
most
from
the
Index’s
performance.
U.S.
bonds
led
the
decline,
as
the
Fed
raised
short-term
interest
rates
four
times,
diminishing
the
value
of
previously
issued
bonds.
Consequently,
all
bond
categories
detracted
from
the
Index’s
performance,
especially
corporate
and
government
bonds.
Rising
interest
rates
drove
increased
yields
(which
move
inversely
to
bond
prices)
on
corporate
bonds
and
raised
borrowing
costs
for
issuers.
Furthermore,
corporate
bond
spreads
(the
difference
between
corporate
bond
yields
and
the
yields
of
similarly-dated
U.S.
Treasury
bonds)
widened,
indicating
increasing
investor
caution
in
an
environment
of
high
inflation
and
rising
interest
rates.
U.S.
Treasury
bonds
also
detracted
from
the
Index’s
return,
as
yields
rose
at
every
maturity
level.
Mortgage-backed
securities
(“MBS”)
declined
amid
a
significant
rise
in
mortgage
rates
and
action
by
the
Fed
to
reduce
its
holdings
of
MBS.
International
bonds
were
another
source
of
weakness,
particularly
government-issued
bonds.
Many
central
banks
around
the
world
raised
interest
rates
in
response
to
high
inflation,
weighing
on
the
value
of
previously-issued
government
bonds.
Within
the
equity
allocation,
which
represented
approximately
30%
of
the
Index
on
average,
international
stocks
from
developed
economies
detracted
the
most
from
the
Index’s
performance.
Global
growth
cooled
in
an
environment
of
high
inflation,
rising
interest
rates,
and
volatility
in
commodities
markets,
pressuring
equities.
In
Japan,
which
endured
two
separate
quarters
of
economic
contraction
during
the
reporting
period,
the
weakening
Japanese
yen
negatively
impacted
the
value
of
stocks
in
U.S.
dollar
terms.
Large
capitalization
U.S.
stocks
declined,
particularly
in
the
communication
services
sector.
A
change
to
the
tracking
data
policies
of
a
popular
mobile
platform
impeded
the
ability
of
social
media
companies
to
target
specific
customer
demographics,
reducing
the
value
of
the
advertising
they
sell.
Emerging
market
equities
also
declined
substantially,
particularly
Chinese
stocks,
which
were
negatively
affected
by
lockdowns.

Objective
The
iShares
Morningstar
Multi-Asset
Income
ETF
(the
“Fund”)
seeks
to
track
the
investment
results
of
an
index
composed
of
underlying
equity,
fixed
income
and
other
income
funds
that
collectively
seek
to
deliver
high
current
income
while
providing
an
opportunity
for
capital
appreciation,
as
represented
by
the
Morningstar
®
Multi-Asset
High
Income
Index
SM
(the
“Index”).
The
Fund
invests
in
a
representative
sample
of
securities
included
in
the
Index
that
collectively
has
an
investment
profile
similar
to
the
Index.
Due
to
the
use
of
representative
sampling,
the
Fund
may
or
may
not
hold
all
of
the
securities
that
are
included
in
the
Index.

Annual
Report
to
Shareholders
Portfolio
Management
Commentary
The
Index’s
mix
of
stock,
bond,
and
real
estate
investment
trust
(“REIT”)
funds
designed
to
seek
a
high
current
income
while
providing
an
opportunity
for
capital
appreciation
declined
for
the
reporting
period.
The
bond
component
was
the
most
significant
detractor
from
the
Index’s
performance.
Long-term
U.S.
Treasuries
led
the
decline,
as
the
Fed
raised
short-term
interest
rates
four
times,
diminishing
the
value
of
previously
issued
bonds,
and
inflation
eroded
the
value
of
fixed
interest
payments.
Consequently,
U.S.
Treasury
yields
(which
move
inversely
to
prices)
rose
at
every
maturity
level,
pressuring
bond
prices.
Furthermore,
the
Fed,
in
a
move
to
tighten
monetary
policy,
moved
from
a
policy
of
purchasing
U.S.
Treasuries
to
reducing
its
holdings
by
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
In
addition,
new
U.S.
Treasury
issuance
was
relatively
high
by
historic
standards,
although
issuance
decreased
somewhat
from
the
stimulus-fueled
peak
of
2020-2021.
Emerging
market
sovereign
bonds
denominated
in
local
currencies
also
detracted
notably
from
the
Index’s
return.
The
U.S.
dollar
strengthened
significantly
against
many
emerging
market
currencies
during
the
reporting
period,
reducing
the
value
of
assets
denominated
in
those
currencies.
Furthermore,
rising
interest
rates
and
high
inflation
pressured
the
finances
of
some
emerging
market
countries,
raising
concerns
among
investors
about
deteriorating
credit
quality.
The
war
in
Ukraine
further
exacerbated
financial
difficulties
faced
by
emerging
markets
by
putting
upward
pressure
on
food
and
energy
prices.
Preferred
stocks,
which
have
some
bond-like
characteristics,
also
declined.
Because
preferred
stock
typically
pays
out
a
fixed
dividend,
it
becomes
relatively
less
attractive
to
investors
when
interest
rates
are
rising.
High-yield
corporate
bonds
also
faced
headwinds,
as
high-yield
corporate
bond
spreads
(the
difference
between
corporate
bond
yields
and
the
yields
of
similarly-dated
U.S.
Treasury
bonds)
widened,
indicating
increasing
investor
caution
in
an
environment
of
high
inflation
and
rising
interest
rates.
The
Index’s
equity
component
also
detracted
from
the
Index’s
return,
primarily
driven
by
emerging
market
stocks
with
high
dividend
yields.
The
majority
of
the
detraction
was
driven
by
Russian
bonds,
which
were
negatively
impacted
by
the
aftermath
of
Russia’s
Ukrainian
invasion.
Sanctions
issued
on
Russia’s
financial
institutions
limited
Russia’s
ability
to
make
bond
payments,
and
new
currency
controls
imposed
by
the
Russian
government
affected
payments
to
some
foreign
bondholders.

Performance/Disclosure
of
Expenses
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.
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.
Disclosure
of
Expenses
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
the 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
the
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.

Organization
iShares
Trust
(the
“Trust”)
is
registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“1940
Act”),
as
an
open-end
management
investment
company.
The
Trust
is
organized
as
a
Delaware
statutory
trust
and
is
authorized
to
have
multiple
series
or
portfolios.
These
financial
statements
relate
only
to
the
following
funds
(each,
a
“Fund”
and
collectively,
the
“Funds”):
Each
Fund
is
a
fund
of
funds
and
seeks
to
achieve
its
investment
objective
by
investing
primarily
in
other
iShares
funds
(each,
an
“underlying
fund”
and
collectively,
the
“underlying
funds”).
The
financial
statements,
including
the
accounting
policies,
and
schedules
of
investments
for
the
underlying
funds
are
available
on
iShares.com
and
should
be
read
in
conjunction
with
the
Funds’
financial
statements. 
2.
Significant
Accounting
Policies
The
financial
statements
are
prepared
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(“U.S.
GAAP”),
which
may
require
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
in
the
financial
statements,
disclosure
of
contingent
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements
and
the
reported
amounts
of
increases
and
decreases
in
net
assets
from
operations
during
the
reporting
period.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates. Each
Fund
is
considered
an
investment
company
under
U.S.
GAAP
and
follows
the
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
applicable
to
investment
companies.
Below
is
a
summary
of
significant
accounting
policies:
Investment
Transactions
and
Income
Recognition:
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
investment
transactions
are
recorded
on
the
dates
the
transactions
are
executed.
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
investment
transactions
are
determined
using
the
specific
identification
method.
Dividend
income
and
capital
gain
distributions
from
the
underlying
funds,
if
any,
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Interest
income
is
recognized
daily
on
an
accrual
basis.
Collateralization:
If
required
by
an
exchange
or
counterparty
agreement,
the
Funds
may
be
required
to
deliver/deposit
cash
and/or
securities
to/with
an
exchange,
or
broker-
dealer
or
custodian
as
collateral
for
certain
investments. 
In-kind
Redemptions:
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
in-kind
redemptions
are
treated
as
sales
of
securities
resulting
in
realized
capital
gains
or
losses
to
the
Funds.
Because
such
gains
or
losses
are
not
taxable
to
the
Funds
and
are
not
distributed
to
existing
Fund
shareholders,
the
gains
or
losses
are
reclassified
from
accumulated
net
realized
gain
(loss)
to
paid-in
capital
at
the
end
of
the
Funds’
tax
year.
These
reclassifications
have
no
effect
on
net
assets
or
net
asset
value
(“NAV”)
per
share.
Distributions:
Dividends
and
distributions
paid
by
each
Fund
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
dates.
Distributions
are
determined
on
a
tax
basis
and
may
differ
from
net
investment
income
and
net
realized
capital
gains
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Dividends
and
distributions
are
paid
in
U.S.
dollars
and
cannot
be
automatically
reinvested
in
additional
shares
of
the
Funds.
The
character
and
timing
of
distributions
are
determined
in
accordance
with
U.S.
federal
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
U.S.
GAAP.
Indemnifications:
In
the
normal
course
of
business,
each
Fund
enters
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
representations
that
provide
general
indemnification.
The
Funds’
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown
because
it
involves
future
potential
claims
against
the
Funds,
which
cannot
be
predicted
with
any
certainty.
3.
Investment
Valuation
and
Fair
Value
Measurements
Investment
Valuation
Policies:
Each
Fund’s
investments
are
valued
at
fair
value
(also
referred
to
as
“market
value”
within
the
financial
statements)
each
day
that
the
Fund’s
listing
exchange
is
open
and,
for
financial
reporting
purposes,
as
of
the
report
date.
U.S.
GAAP
defines
fair
value
as
the
price
a
fund
would
receive
to
sell
an
asset
or
pay
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date.
Each
Fund
determines
the
fair
values
of
its
financial
instruments
using
various
independent
dealers
or
pricing
services
under
policies
approved
by
the
Board
of
Trustees
of
the
Trust
(the
“Board”).
If
a
security’s
market
price
is
not
readily
available
or
does
not
otherwise
accurately
represent
the
fair
value
of
the
security,
the
security
will
be
valued
in
accordance
with
a
policy
approved
by
the
Board
as
reflecting
fair
value.
The
BlackRock
Global
Valuation
Methodologies
Committee
(the
“Global
Valuation
Committee”)
is
the
committee
formed
by
management
to
develop
global
pricing
policies
and
procedures
and
to
oversee
the
pricing
function
for
all
financial
instruments. 
Fair
Value
Inputs
and
Methodologies:
The
following
methods
and
inputs
are
used
to
establish
the
fair
value
of each
Fund’s
assets
and
liabilities:
Exchange-traded
funds
and
closed-end
funds
traded
on
a
recognized
securities
exchange
are
valued
at
that
day’s
last
traded
price
or
official
closing
price,
as
applicable,
on
the
exchange
where
the
fund
is
primarily
traded.
Funds
traded
on
a
recognized
exchange
for
which
there
were
no
sales
on
that
day
may
be
valued
at
the
last
traded
price.
Investments
in
open-end
U.S.
mutual
funds
(including
money
market
funds)
are
valued
at
that
day’s
published
NAV.
Futures
contracts
are
valued
based
on
that
day’s
last
reported
settlement
or
trade
price
on
the
exchange
where
the
contract
is
traded.

iShares
Annual
Report
to
Shareholders
If
events
(e.g., market
volatility,
company
announcement
or
a
natural
disaster)
occur
that
are
expected
to
materially
affect
the
value
of
such
investment,
or
in
the
event
that
application
of
these
methods
of
valuation
results
in
a
price
for
an
investment
that
is
deemed
not
to
be
representative
of
the
market
value
of
such
investment,
or
if
a
price
is
not
available,
the
investment
will
be
valued
by
the
Global
Valuation
Committee,
in
accordance
with
a
policy
approved
by
the
Board
as
reflecting
fair
value
(“Fair
Valued
Investments”).
The
fair
valuation
approaches
that
may
be
used
by
the
Global
Valuation
Committee
include
market
approach,
income
approach
and
cost
approach.
Valuation
techniques
such
as
discounted
cash
flow,
use
of
market
comparables
and
matrix
pricing
are
types
of
valuation
approaches
and
are
typically
used
in
determining
fair
value.
When
determining
the
price
for
Fair
Valued
Investments,
the
Global
Valuation
Committee,
or
its
delegate,
seeks
to
determine
the
price
that each
Fund
might
reasonably
expect
to
receive
or
pay
from
the
current
sale
or
purchase
of
that
asset
or
liability
in
an
arm’s-length
transaction.
Fair
value
determinations
shall
be
based
upon
all
available
factors
that
the
Global
Valuation
Committee,
or
its
delegate,
deems
relevant
and
consistent
with
the
principles
of
fair
value
measurement.
The
pricing
of
all
Fair
Valued
Investments
is
subsequently
reported
to
the
Board
or
a
committee
thereof
on
a
quarterly
basis.
Fair
value
pricing
could
result
in
a
difference
between
the
prices
used
to
calculate
a
fund’s
NAV
and
the
prices
used
by
the
fund’s
underlying
index,
which
in
turn
could
result
in
a
difference
between
the
fund’s
performance
and
the
performance
of
the
fund’s
underlying
index.
Fair
Value
Hierarchy:
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments.
These
inputs
to
valuation
techniques
are
categorized
into
a
fair
value
hierarchy
consisting
of
three
broad
levels
for
financial
reporting
purposes
as
follows:
Level
1
–
Unadjusted
price
quotations
in
active markets/exchanges
for
identical
assets
or
liabilities that each
Fund has
the
ability
to
access;
Level
2
–
Other
observable
inputs
(including,
but
not
limited to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
assets
or
liabilities
in
markets
that are
active,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
assets
or
liabilities
in
markets
that
are
not
active, inputs
other than
quoted prices
that
are
observable
for
the
assets
or
liabilities
(such
as
interest
rates,
yield curves, volatilities, prepayment
speeds, loss
severities,
credit
risks
and
default
rates)
or
other
market-
corroborated
inputs);
and
Level
3
–
Unobservable
inputs
based
on
the
best
information
available
in
the
circumstances,
to
the
extent observable
inputs are
not
available,
(including
the
Global
Valuation
Committee’s
assumptions
used
in determining the
fair value
of
financial instruments).
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).
Accordingly,
the
degree
of
judgment
exercised
in
determining
fair
value
is
greatest
for
instruments
categorized
in
Level
3.
The
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value
may
fall
into
different
levels
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
In
such
cases,
for
disclosure
purposes,
the
fair
value
hierarchy
classification
is
determined
based
on
the
lowest
level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
measurement
in
its
entirety.
Investments
classified
within
Level
3
have
significant
unobservable
inputs
used
by
the
Global
Valuation
Committee
in
determining
the
price
for
Fair
Valued
Investments.
Level
3
investments
include
equity
or
debt
issued
by
privately
held
companies
or
funds
that
may
not
have
a
secondary
market
and/or
may
have
a
limited
number
of
investors.
The
categorization
of
a
value
determined
for
financial
instruments
is
based
on
the
pricing
transparency
of
the
financial
instruments
and
is
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risks
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities.
4.
Securities
and
Other
Investments 
Securities
Lending:
Each
Fund
may
lend
its
securities
to
approved
borrowers,
such
as
brokers,
dealers
and
other
financial
institutions.
The
borrower
pledges
and
maintains
with
the
Fund
collateral
consisting
of
cash,
an
irrevocable
letter
of
credit
issued
by
an
approved
bank,
or
securities
issued
or
guaranteed
by
the
U.S.
government.
The
initial
collateral
received
by
each
Fund
is
required
to
have
a
value
of
at
least
102%
of
the
current
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities
for
securities
traded
on
U.S.
exchanges
and
a
value
of
at
least
105%
for
all
other
securities.
The
collateral
is
maintained
thereafter
at
a
value
equal
to
at
least
100%
of
the
current
value
of
the
securities
on
loan.
The
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities
is
determined
at
the
close
of
each
business
day
of
the
Fund
and
any
additional
required
collateral
is
delivered
to
the
Fund
or
excess
collateral
is
returned
by
the
Fund,
on
the
next
business
day.
During
the
term
of
the
loan,
each
Fund
is
entitled
to
all
distributions
made
on
or
in
respect
of
the
loaned
securities
but
does
not
receive
interest
income
on
securities
received
as
collateral.
Loans
of
securities
are
terminable
at
any
time
and
the
borrower,
after
notice,
is
required
to
return
borrowed
securities
within
the
standard
time
period
for
settlement
of
securities
transactions.
As
of
period
end,
any
securities
on
loan
were
collateralized
by
cash
and/or
U.S.
Government
obligations.
Cash
collateral
invested
in
money
market
funds
managed
by
BlackRock
Fund
Advisors
(“BFA”),
the
Funds’
investment
adviser,
or
its
affiliates
is
disclosed
in
the
Schedule
of
Investments.
Any
non-cash
collateral
received
cannot
be
sold,
re-invested
or
pledged
by
the
Fund,
except
in
the
event
of
borrower
default.
The
securities
on
loan,
if
any,
are
also
disclosed
in
each
Fund’s
Schedule
of
Investments.
The
market
value
of
any
securities
on
loan
and
the
value
of
any
related
cash
collateral
are
disclosed
in
the Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Securities
lending
transactions
are
entered
into
by
the
Funds
under
Master
Securities
Lending
Agreements
(each,
an
“MSLA”)
which
provide
the
right,
in
the
event
of
default
(including
bankruptcy
or
insolvency)
for
the
non-defaulting
party
to
liquidate
the
collateral
and
calculate
a
net
exposure
to
the
defaulting
party
or
request
additional
collateral.
In
the
event
that
a
borrower
defaults,
the
Funds,
as
lender,
would
offset
the
market
value
of
the
collateral
received
against
the
market
value
of
the
securities
loaned.
When
the
value
of
the
collateral
is
greater
than
that
of
the
market
value
of
the
securities
loaned,
the
lender
is
left
with
a
net
amount
payable
to
the
defaulting
party.
However,
bankruptcy
or
insolvency
laws
of
a
particular
jurisdiction
may
impose
restrictions
on
or
prohibitions
against
such
a
right
of
offset
in
the
event
of
an
MSLA
counterparty’s
bankruptcy
or
insolvency.
Under
the
MSLA,
absent
an
event
of
default,
the
borrower
can
resell
or
re-pledge
the
loaned
securities,
and
the
Funds
can
reinvest
cash
collateral
received
in
connection
with
loaned
securities.
Upon
an
event
of
default,
the
parties’
obligations
to
return
the
securities
or
collateral
to
the
other
party
are
extinguished,
and
the
parties
can
resell
or
re-pledge
the
loaned
securities
or
the
collateral
received
in
connection
with
the
loaned
securities
in
order
to
satisfy
the
defaulting
party’s
net
payment
obligation
for
all
transactions
under
the
MSLA.
The
defaulting
party
remains
liable
for
any
deficiency.

41
Notes
to
Financial
Statements
As
of
period
end,
the
following
table
is
a
summary
of
the
securities
on
loan
by
counterparty
which
are
subject
to
offset
under
an
MSLA:
The
risks
of
securities
lending
include
the
risk
that
the
borrower
may
not
provide
additional
collateral
when
required
or
may
not
return
the
securities
when
due.
To
mitigate
these
risks,
each
Fund
benefits
from
a
borrower
default
indemnity
provided
by
BlackRock,
Inc.
(“BlackRock”).
BlackRock’s
indemnity
allows
for
full
replacement
of
the
securities
loaned
to
the
extent
the
collateral
received
does
not
cover
the
value
of
the
securities
loaned
in
the
event
of
borrower
default.
Each
Fund
could
incur
a
loss
if
the
value
of
an
investment
purchased
with
cash
collateral
falls
below
the
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities
or
if
the
value
of
an
investment
purchased
with
cash
collateral
falls
below
the
value
of
the
original
cash
collateral
received.
Such
losses
are
borne
entirely
by
each
Fund.
5.
Derivative
Financial
Instruments
Futures
Contracts:
Futures
contracts
are
purchased
or
sold
to
gain
exposure
to,
or
manage
exposure
to,
changes
in
interest
rates
(interest
rate
risk)
and
changes
in
the
value
of
equity
securities
(equity
risk)
or
foreign
currencies
(foreign
currency
exchange
rate
risk).
Futures
contracts
are
exchange-traded
agreements
between
the Funds
and
a
counterparty
to
buy
or
sell
a
specific
quantity
of
an
underlying
instrument
at
a
specified
price
and
on
a
specified
date.
Depending
on
the
terms
of
a
contract,
it
is
settled
either
through
physical
delivery
of
the
underlying
instrument
on
the
settlement
date
or
by
payment
of
a
cash
amount
on
the
settlement
date.
Upon
entering
into
a
futures
contract,
the Funds
are
required
to
deposit
initial
margin
with
the
broker
in
the
form
of
cash
or
securities
in
an
amount
that
varies
depending
on
a
contract’s
size
and
risk
profile.
The
initial
margin
deposit
must
then
be
maintained
at
an
established
level
over
the
life
of
the
contract.
Amounts
pledged,
which
are
considered

Securities
Lending:
The
U.S.
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(the
“SEC”)
has
issued
an
exemptive
order
which
permits
BlackRock
Institutional
Trust
Company,
N.A.
(“BTC”),
an
affiliate
of
BFA,
to
serve
as
securities
lending
agent
for
the
Funds,
subject
to
applicable
conditions.
As
securities
lending
agent,
BTC
bears
all
operational
costs
directly
related
to
securities
lending,
including
any
custodial
costs.
Each
Fund
is
responsible
for
fees
in
connection
with
the
investment
of
cash
collateral
received
for
securities
on
loan
(the
“collateral
investment
fees”).
The
cash
collateral
is
invested
in
a
money
market
fund,
BlackRock
Cash
Funds:
Institutional
or
BlackRock
Cash
Funds:
Treasury,
managed
by
BFA,
or
its
affiliates.
However,
BTC
has
agreed
to
reduce
the
amount
of
securities
lending
income
it
receives
in
order
to
effectively
limit
the
collateral
investment
fees
each
Fund
bears
to
an
annual
rate
of
0.04%.
The
SL
Agency
Shares
of
such
money
market
fund
will
not
be
subject
to
a
sales
load,
distribution
fee
or
service
fee.
The
money
market
fund
in
which
the
cash
collateral
has
been
invested
may,
under
certain
circumstances,
impose
a
liquidity
fee
of
up
to
2%
of
the
value
redeemed
or
temporarily
restrict
redemptions
for
up
to
10
business
days
during
a
90
day
period,
in
the
event
that
the
money
market
fund’s
weekly
liquid
assets
fall
below
certain
thresholds.
Securities
lending
income
is
equal
to
the
total
of
income
earned
from
the
reinvestment
of
cash
collateral,
net
of
fees
and
other
payments
to
and
from
borrowers
of
securities,
and
less
the
collateral
investment
fees.
Each
Fund
retains
a
portion
of
securities
lending
income
and
remits
the
remaining
portion
to
BTC
as
compensation
for
its
services
as
securities
lending
agent.
Pursuant
to
the
current
securities
lending
agreement,
each
Fund
retains
82%
of
securities
lending
income
(which
excludes
collateral
investment
fees)
and
the
amount
retained
can
never
be
less
than
70%
of
the
total
of
securities
lending
income
plus
the
collateral
investment
fees.

Income
Tax
Information
Each
Fund
is
treated
as
an
entity
separate
from
the
Trust’s
other
funds
for
federal
income
tax
purposes.
It
is
each
Fund’s
policy
to
comply
with
the
requirements
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
of
1986,
as
amended,
applicable
to
regulated
investment
companies,
and
to
distribute
substantially
all
of
its
taxable
income
to
its
shareholders.
Therefore,
no
U.S.
federal
income
tax
provision
is
required.
Management
has
analyzed
tax
laws
and
regulations
and
their
application
to
the
Funds
as
of
July
31,
2022,
inclusive
of
the
open
tax
return
years,
and
does
not
believe
that
there
are
any
uncertain
tax
positions
that
require
recognition
of
a
tax
liability
in
the
Funds’
financial
statements.
U.S.
GAAP
requires
that
certain
components
of
net
assets
be
adjusted
to
reflect
permanent
differences
between
financial
and
tax
reporting.
These
reclassifications
have
no
effect
on
net
assets
or
NAV
per
share.
As
of
July
31,
2022,
permanent
differences
attributable
to
distributions
paid
in
excess
of
taxable
income
and realized
gains

Principal
Risks
In
the
normal
course
of
business,
each
Fund
invests
in
securities
or
other
instruments
and
may
enter
into
certain
transactions,
and
such
activities
subject
the
Fund
to
various
risks,
including,
among
others,
fluctuations
in
the
market
(market
risk)
or
failure
of
an
issuer
to
meet
all
of
its
obligations.
The
value
of
securities
or
other
instruments
may
also
be
affected
by
various
factors,
including,
without
limitation:
(i)
the
general
economy;
(ii)
the
overall
market
as
well
as
local,
regional
or
global
political
and/or
social
instability;
(iii)
regulation,
taxation
or
international
tax
treaties
between
various
countries;
or
(iv)
currency,
interest
rate
or
price
fluctuations.
Local,
regional
or
global
events
such
as
war,
acts
of
terrorism,
the
spread
of
infectious
illness
or
other
public
health
issues,
recessions,
or
other
events
could
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
Funds
and
their
investments.
Each
Fund’s
prospectus
provides
details
of
the
risks
to
which
the
Fund
is
subject.
BFA
uses
a
“passive”
or
index
approach
to
try
to
achieve
each
Fund’s
investment
objective
following
the
securities
included
in
its
underlying
index
during
upturns
as
well
as
downturns.
BFA
does
not
take
steps
to
reduce
market
exposure
or
to
lessen
the
effects
of
a
declining
market.
Divergence
from
the
underlying
index
and
the
composition
of
the
portfolio
is
monitored
by
BFA.
The
Funds
may
be
exposed
to
additional
risks
when
reinvesting
cash
collateral
in
money
market
funds
that
do
not
seek
to
maintain
a
stable
NAV
per
share
of
$1.00,
which
may
be
subject
to
redemption
gates
or
liquidity
fees
under
certain
circumstances.
Market
Risk:
An
outbreak
of
respiratory
disease
caused
by
a
novel
coronavirus
has
developed
into
a
global
pandemic
and
has
resulted
in
closing
borders,
quarantines,
disruptions
to
supply
chains
and
customer
activity,
as
well
as
general
concern
and
uncertainty.
The
impact
of
this
pandemic,
and
other
global
health
crises
that
may
arise
in
the
future,
could
affect
the
economies
of
many
nations,
individual
companies
and
the
market
in
general
in
ways
that
cannot
necessarily
be
foreseen
at
the
present
time.
This
pandemic
may
result
in
substantial
market
volatility
and
may
adversely
impact
the
prices
and
liquidity
of
a
fund's
investments.
Although
vaccines
have
been
developed
and
approved
for
use
by
various
governments,
the
duration
of
this
pandemic
and
its
effects
cannot
be
determined
with
certainty.

Notes

Financial
Statements
(

Notes

Financial
Statements
Valuation
Risk:
The
market
values
of
equities,
such
as
common
stocks
and
preferred
securities
or
equity
related
investments,
such
as
futures
and
options,
may
decline
due
to
general
market
conditions
which
are
not
specifically
related
to
a
particular
company.
They
may
also
decline
due
to
factors
which
affect
a
particular
industry
or
industries.
A
fund
may
invest
in
illiquid
investments.
An
illiquid
investment
is
any
investment
that
a
fund
reasonably
expects
cannot
be
sold
or
disposed
of
in
current
market
conditions
in
seven
calendar
days
or
less
without
the
sale
or
disposition
significantly
changing
the
market
value
of
the
investment.
A
fund
may
experience
difficulty
in
selling
illiquid
investments
in
a
timely
manner
at
the
price
that
it
believes
the
investments
are
worth.
Prices
may
fluctuate
widely
over
short
or
extended
periods
in
response
to
company,
market
or
economic
news.
Markets
also
tend
to
move
in
cycles,
with
periods
of
rising
and
falling
prices.
This
volatility
may
cause
a
fund’s
NAV
to
experience
significant
increases
or
decreases
over
short
periods
of
time.
If
there
is
a
general
decline
in
the
securities
and
other
markets,
the
NAV
of
a
fund
may
lose
value,
regardless
of
the
individual
results
of
the
securities
and
other
instruments
in
which
a
fund
invests. 
Counterparty
Credit
Risk:
The
Funds
may
be
exposed
to
counterparty
credit
risk,
or
the
risk
that
an
entity
may
fail
to
or
be
unable
to
perform
on
its
commitments
related
to
unsettled
or
open
transactions,
including
making
timely
interest
and/or
principal
payments
or
otherwise
honoring
its
obligations.
The
Funds
manage
counterparty
credit
risk
by
entering
into
transactions
only
with
counterparties
that
the
Manager
believes
have
the
financial
resources
to
honor
their
obligations
and
by
monitoring
the
financial
stability
of
those
counterparties.
Financial
assets,
which
potentially
expose
the
Funds
to
market,
issuer
and
counterparty
credit
risks,
consist
principally
of
financial
instruments
and
receivables
due
from
counterparties.
The
extent
of
the
Funds’
exposure
to
market,
issuer
and
counterparty
credit
risks
with
respect
to
these
financial
assets
is
approximately
their
value
recorded
in
the
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities,
less
any
collateral
held
by
the
Funds.
A
derivative
contract
may
suffer
a
mark-to-market
loss
if
the
value
of
the
contract
decreases
due
to
an
unfavorable
change
in
the
market
rates
or
values
of
the
underlying
instrument.
Losses
can
also
occur
if
the
counterparty
does
not
perform
under
the
contract.
With
exchange-traded
futures,
there
is
less
counterparty
credit
risk
to
the
Funds
since
the
exchange
or
clearinghouse,
as
counterparty
to
such
instruments,
guarantees
against
a
possible
default.
The
clearinghouse
stands
between
the
buyer
and
the
seller
of
the
contract;
therefore,
credit
risk
is
limited
to
failure
of
the
clearinghouse.
While
offset
rights
may
exist
under
applicable
law, a
Fund
does
not
have
a
contractual
right
of
offset
against
a
clearing
broker
or
clearinghouse
in
the
event
of
a
default
(including
the
bankruptcy
or
insolvency).
Additionally,
credit
risk
exists
in
exchange-traded
futures
with
respect
to
initial
and
variation
margin
that
is
held
in
a
clearing
broker’s
customer
accounts.
While
clearing
brokers
are
required
to
segregate
customer
margin
from
their
own
assets,
in
the
event
that
a
clearing
broker
becomes
insolvent
or
goes
into
bankruptcy
and
at
that
time
there
is
a
shortfall
in
the
aggregate
amount
of
margin
held
by
the
clearing
broker
for
all
its
clients,
typically
the
shortfall
would
be
allocated
on
a
pro
rata
basis
across
all
the
clearing
broker’s
customers,
potentially
resulting
in
losses
to
the
Funds.
Concentration
Risk:
A
diversified
portfolio,
where
this
is
appropriate
and
consistent
with
a
fund’s
objectives,
minimizes
the
risk
that
a
price
change
of
a
particular
investment
will
have
a
material
impact
on
the
NAV
of
a
fund.
The
investment
concentrations
within
each
Fund’s
portfolio
are
disclosed
in
its
Schedule
of
Investments.
Significant
Shareholder
Redemption
Risk:
Certain
shareholders
may
own
or
manage
a
substantial
amount
of
fund
shares
and/or
hold
their
fund
investments
for
a
limited
period
of
time.
Large
redemptions
of
fund
shares
by
these
shareholders
may
force
a
fund
to
sell
portfolio
securities,
which
may
negatively
impact
the
fund’s
NAV,
increase
the
fund’s
brokerage
costs,
and/or
accelerate
the
realization
of
taxable
income/gains
and
cause
the
fund
to
make
additional
taxable
distributions
to
shareholders.
LIBOR
Transition
Risk:
The
United
Kingdom’s
Financial
Conduct
Authority
announced
a
phase
out
of
the
London
Interbank
Offered
Rate
(“LIBOR”).
Although
many
LIBOR
rates
ceased
to
be
published
or
no
longer
are
representative
of
the
underlying
market
they
seek
to
measure
after
December
31,
2021,
a
selection
of
widely
used
USD
LIBOR
rates
will
continue
to
be
published
through
June
2023
in
order
to
assist
with
the
transition.
The
Funds
may
be
exposed
to
financial
instruments
tied
to
LIBOR
to
determine
payment
obligations,
financing
terms,
hedging
strategies
or
investment
value.
The
transition
process
away
from
LIBOR
might
lead
to
increased
volatility
and
illiquidity
in
markets
for,
and
reduce
the
effectiveness
of
new
hedges
placed
against,
instruments
whose
terms
currently
include
LIBOR.
The
ultimate
effect
of
the
LIBOR
transition
process
on
the
Funds
is
uncertain.

Capital
Share
Transactions 
Capital
shares
are
issued
and
redeemed
by each
Fund
only
in
aggregations
of
a
specified
number
of
shares
or
multiples
thereof
(“Creation
Units”)
at
NAV.
Except
when
aggregated
in
Creation
Units,
shares
of each
Fund
are
not
redeemable.
Transactions
in
capital
shares
were
as
follows:
The
consideration
for
the
purchase
of
Creation
Units
of
a
fund
in
the
Trust
generally
consists
of
the
in-kind
deposit
of
a
designated
portfolio
of
securities
and
a
specified
amount
of
cash.
Certain
funds
in
the
Trust
may
be
offered
in
Creation
Units
solely
or
partially
for
cash
in
U.S.
dollars.
Investors
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation
Units
may
pay
a
purchase
transaction
fee
and
a
redemption
transaction
fee
directly
to
BRIL,
to
offset
transfer
and
other
transaction
costs
associated
with
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units,
including
Creation
Units
for
cash.
Investors
transacting
in
Creation
Units
for
cash
may
also
pay
an
additional
variable
charge
to
compensate
the
relevant
fund
for
certain
transaction
costs
(i.e.,
stamp
taxes,
taxes
on
currency
or
other
financial
transactions,
and
brokerage
costs)
and
market
impact
expenses
relating
to
investing
in
portfolio
securities.
Such
variable
charges,
if
any,
are
included
in
shares
sold
in
the
table
above.
From
time
to
time,
settlement
of
securities
related
to
in-kind
contributions
or
in-kind
redemptions
may
be
delayed.
In
such
cases,
securities
related
to
in-kind
transactions
are
reflected
as
a
receivable
or
a
payable
in
the
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.

evaluated
the
impact
of
all

through
the
date
the

were
available
to

Report
of
Independent
Registered
Public
Accounting
Firm
To
the
Board
of
Trustees
of
 iShares
Trust
and
Shareholders
of
each
of
the five funds
listed
in
the
table
below
Opinions
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statements
of
assets
and
liabilities,
including
the
schedules
of
investments,
of
each
of
the
funds
listed
in
the
table
below
(five
of
the
funds
constituting
iShares
Trust,
hereafter
collectively
referred
to
as
the
“Funds”)
as
of
July
31,
2022,
the
related
statements
of
operations
for
the
year
ended
July
31,
2022,
the
statements
of
changes
in
net
assets
for
each
of
the
two
years
in
the
period
ended
July
31,
2022,
including
the
related
notes,
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
ended
July
31,
2022 (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
July
31,
2022,
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
July
31,
2022 and
each
of
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
ended
July
31,
2022 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
July
31,
2022 by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
transfer
agent
and
brokers. 
We
believe
that
our
audits
provide
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinions.

(each
the
“Fund”)
Under
Section
15(c)
of
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940
(the
“1940
Act”),
the
Trust's
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”),
including
a
majority
of
Board
Members
who
are
not
“interested
persons”
of
the
Trust
(as
that
term
is
defined
in
the
1940
Act)
(the
“Independent
Board
Members”),
is
required
annually
to
consider
and
approve
the
Investment
Advisory
Agreement
between
the
Trust
and
BFA
(the
“Advisory
Agreement”)
on
behalf
of
the
Fund.
The
Board’s
consideration
entails
a
year-long
process
whereby
the
Board
and
its
committees
(composed
solely
of
Independent
Board
Members)
assess
BlackRock’s
services
to
the
Fund,
including
investment
management;
fund
accounting;
administrative
and
shareholder
services;
oversight
of
the
Fund’s
service
providers;
risk
management
and
oversight;
legal
and
compliance
services;
and
ability
to
meet
applicable
legal
and
regulatory
requirements.
The
Independent
Board
Members
requested,
and
BFA
provided,
such
information
as
the
Independent
Board
Members,
with
advice
from
independent
counsel,
deemed
reasonably
necessary
to
evaluate
the
Advisory
Agreement.
At
meetings
on
May
3,
2022
and
May
18,
2022,
a
committee
composed
of
all
of
the
Independent
Board
Members
(the
“15(c)
Committee”),
with
independent
counsel,
met
with
management
and
reviewed
and
discussed
information
provided
in
response
to
initial
requests
of
the
15(c)
Committee
and/or
its
independent
counsel,
and
requested
certain
additional
information,
which
management
agreed
to
provide.
At
a
meeting
held
on
June
13-15,
2022,
the
Board,
including
the
Independent
Board
Members,
reviewed
the
additional
information
provided
by
management
in
response
to
these
requests.
After
extensive
discussions
and
deliberations,
the
Board,
including
all
of
the
Independent
Board
Members,
approved
the
continuance
of
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
Fund,
based
on
a
review
of
qualitative
and
quantitative
information
provided
by
BFA
and
their
cumulative
experience
as
Board
Members.
The
Board
noted
its
satisfaction
with
the
extent
and
quality
of
information
provided
and
its
frequent
interactions
with
management,
as
well
as
the
detailed
responses
and
other
information
provided
by
BFA.
The
Independent
Board
Members
were
advised
by
their
independent
counsel
throughout
the
process,
including
about
the
legal
standards
applicable
to
their
review.
In
approving
the
continuance
of
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
Fund,
the
Board,
including
the
Independent
Board
Members,
considered
various
factors,
including:
(i)
the
expenses
and
performance
of
the
Fund;
(ii)
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
the
services
provided
by
BFA;
(iii)
the
costs
of
services
provided
to
the
Fund
and
profits
realized
by
BFA
and
its
affiliates;
(iv)
potential
economies
of
scale
and
the
sharing
of
related
benefits;
(v)
the
fees
and
services
provided
for
other
comparable
funds/accounts
managed
by
BFA
and
its
affiliates;
and
(vi)
other
benefits
to
BFA
and/or
its
affiliates.
The
material
factors,
none
of
which
was
controlling,
and
conclusions
that
formed
the
basis
for
the
Board,
including
the
Independent
Board
Members,
to
approve
the
continuance
of
the
Advisory
Agreement
are
discussed
below.
Expenses
and
Performance
of
the
Fund:
The
Board
reviewed
statistical
information
prepared
by
Broadridge
Financial
Solutions
Inc.
(“Broadridge”),
an
independent
provider
of
investment
company
data,
regarding
the
expense
ratio
components,
including
gross
and
net
total
expenses,
fees
and
expenses
of
another
fund
in
which
the
Fund
invests
(if
applicable),
and
waivers/reimbursements
(if
applicable)
of
the
Fund
in
comparison
with
the
same
information
for
other
ETFs,
objectively
selected
by
Broadridge
as
comprising
the
Fund’s
applicable
expense
peer
group
pursuant
to
Broadridge’s
proprietary
ETF
methodology
(the
“Peer
Group”).
The
Board
was
provided
with
a
detailed
description
of
the
proprietary
ETF
methodology
used
by
Broadridge
to
determine
the
Fund’s
Peer
Group.
The
Board
noted
that,
due
to
the
limitations
in
providing
comparable
funds
in
the
Peer
Group,
the
statistical
information
provided
in
Broadridge’s
report
may
or
may
not
provide
meaningful
direct
comparisons
to
the
Fund
in
all
instances.
The
Board
also
noted
that
the
investment
advisory
fee
rate
and
overall
expenses
(net
of
waivers
and
reimbursements)
for
the
Fund
were
lower
than
the
median
of
the
investment
advisory
fee
rates
and
overall
expenses
(net
of
waivers
and
reimbursements)
of
the
funds
in
its
Peer
Group,
excluding
iShares
funds.
In
addition,
to
the
extent
that
any
of
the
comparison
funds
included
in
the
Peer
Group,
excluding
iShares
funds,
track
the
same
index
as
the
Fund,
Broadridge
also
provided,
and
the
Board
reviewed,
a
comparison
of
the
Fund’s
performance
for
the
one-year,
three-year,
five-year,
ten-year,
and
since
inception
periods,
as
applicable,
and
for
the
quarter
ended
December
31,
2021,
to
that
of
such
relevant
comparison
fund(s)
for
the
same
periods.
The
Board
noted
that
the
Fund
seeks
to
track
its
specified
underlying
index
and
that,
during
the
year,
the
Board
received
periodic
reports
on
the
Fund’s
short-
and
longer-term
performance
in
comparison
with
its
underlying
index.
Such
periodic
comparative
performance
information,
including
additional
detailed
information
as
requested
by
the
Board,
was
also
considered.
The
Board
noted
that
the
Fund
generally
performed
in
line
with
its
underlying
index
over
the
relevant
periods.
Based
on
this
review,
the
other
factors
considered
at
the
meeting,
and
their
general
knowledge
of
ETF
pricing,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
investment
advisory
fee
rate
and
expense
level
and
the
historical
performance
of
the
Fund
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuance
of
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
coming
year.
Nature,
Extent
and
Quality
of
Services
Provided:
Based
on
management’s
representations,
including
information
about
recent
enhancements
and
initiatives
with
respect
to
the
iShares
business,
including
with
respect
to
capital
markets
support
and
analysis,
technology,
portfolio
management,
product
design
and
quality,
compliance
and
risk
management,
global
public
policy
and
other
services,
the
Board
expected
that
there
would
be
no
diminution
in
the
scope
of
services
required
of
or
provided
by
BFA
under
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
coming
year
as
compared
with
the
scope
of
services
provided
by
BFA
during
prior
years.
In
reviewing
the
scope
of
these
services,
the
Board
considered
BFA’s
investment
philosophy
and
experience,
noting
that
BFA
and
its
affiliates
have
committed
significant
resources
over
time,
including
during
the
past
year,
to
support
the
iShares
funds
and
their
shareholders
and
have
made
significant
investments
into
the
iShares
business.
The
Board
also
considered
BFA’s
compliance
program
and
its
compliance
record
with
respect
to
the
Fund.
In
that
regard,
the
Board
noted
that
BFA
reports
to
the
Board
about
portfolio
management
and
compliance
matters
on
a
periodic
basis
in
connection
with
regularly
scheduled
meetings
of
the
Board,
and
on
other
occasions
as
necessary
and
appropriate,
and
has
provided
information
and
made
relevant
officers
and
other
employees
of
BFA
(and
its
affiliates)
available
as
needed
to
provide
further
assistance
with
these
matters.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
background
and
experience
of
the
persons
responsible
for
the
day-to-day
management
of
the
Fund,
as
well
as
the
resources
available
to
them
in
managing
the
Fund.
In
addition
to
the
above
considerations,
the
Board
reviewed
and
considered
detailed
presentations
regarding
BFA’s
investment
performance,
investment
and
risk
management
processes
and
strategies,
provided
at
the
May
3,
2022
meeting
and
throughout
the
year,
and
matters
related
to
BFA’s
portfolio
compliance
program.
Based
on
review
of
this
information,
and
the
performance
information
discussed
above,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
services
provided
to
the
Fund
under
the
Advisory
Agreement
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuance
of
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
coming
year.
Costs
of
Services
Provided
to
the
Fund
and
Profits
Realized
by
BFA
and
its
Affiliates:
The
Board
reviewed
information
about
the
estimated
profitability
to
BlackRock
in
managing
the
Fund,
based
on
the
fees
payable
to
BFA
and
its
affiliates
(including
fees
under
the
Advisory
Agreement),
and
other
sources
of
revenue
and
expense
to
BFA
and
its
affiliates
from
the
Fund’s
operations
for
the
last
calendar
year.
The
Board
reviewed
BlackRock’s
methodology
for
calculating
estimated
profitability
of
the
iShares
funds,
noting
that
the
15(c)
Committee
and
the
Board
had
focused
on
the
methodology
and
profitability
presentation.
The
Board
recognized
that
profitability
may
be
affected
by
numerous
factors,
including,
among
other
things,
fee
waivers
by
BFA,
the
types
of
funds
managed,
expense
allocations
and
business
mix.
The
Board
thus
recognized
that
Board
Review
and
Approval
of
Investment
Advisory
Contract
(continued)
50
2022
iShares
Annual
Report
to
Shareholders
calculating
and
comparing
profitability
at
individual
fund
levels
is
challenging.
The
Board
discussed
with
management
the
sources
of
direct
and
ancillary
revenue,
including
the
revenues
to
BTC,
a
BlackRock
affiliate,
from
securities
lending
by
the
Fund.
The
Board
also
discussed
BFA’s
estimated
profit
margin
as
reflected
in
the
Fund’s
profitability
analysis
and
reviewed
information
regarding
potential
economies
of
scale
(as
discussed
below).
Based
on
this
review,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
information
considered
with
respect
to
the
profits
realized
by
BFA
and
its
affiliates
under
the
Advisory
Agreement
and
from
other
relationships
between
the
Fund
and
BFA
and/or
its
affiliates,
if
any,
as
well
as
the
other
factors
considered
at
the
meeting,
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuance
of
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
coming
year.
Economies
of
Scale:
The
Board
reviewed
information
and
considered
the
extent
to
which
economies
of
scale
might
be
realized
as
the
assets
of
the
Fund
increase,
noting
that
the
issue
of
potential
economies
of
scale
had
been
focused
on
by
the
15(c)
Committee
and
the
Board
during
their
meetings
and
addressed
by
management.
The
15(c)
Committee
and
the
Board
received
information
regarding
BlackRock’s
historical
estimated
profitability,
including
BFA’s
and
its
affiliates’
estimated
costs
in
providing
services.
The
estimated
cost
information
distinguished,
among
other
things,
between
fixed
and
variable
costs,
and
showed
how
the
level
and
nature
of
fixed
and
variable
costs
may
impact
the
existence
or
size
of
scale
benefits,
with
the
Board
recognizing
that
potential
economies
of
scale
are
difficult
to
measure.
The
15(c)
Committee
and
the
Board
reviewed
information
provided
by
BFA
regarding
the
sharing
of
scale
benefits
with
the
iShares
funds
through
various
means,
including,
as
applicable,
through
relatively
low
fee
rates
established
at
inception,
breakpoints,
waivers,
or
other
fee
reductions,
as
well
as
through
additional
investment
in
the
iShares
business
and
the
provision
of
improved
or
additional
infrastructure
and
services
to
the
iShares
funds
and
their
shareholders.
The
Board
noted
that
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
Fund
did
not
provide
for
breakpoints
in
the
Fund’s
investment
advisory
fee
rate
as
the
assets
of
the
Fund
increase.
However,
the
Board
noted
that
it
would
continue
to
assess
the
appropriateness
of
adding
breakpoints
in
the
future.
The
Board
concluded
that
this
review
of
potential
economies
of
scale
and
the
sharing
of
related
benefits,
as
well
as
the
other
factors
considered
at
the
meeting,
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuance
of
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
coming
year.
Fees
and
Services
Provided
for
Other
Comparable
Funds/Accounts
Managed
by
BFA
and
its
Affiliates:
The
Board
received
and
considered
information
regarding
the
investment
advisory/management
fee
rates
for
other
funds/accounts
in
the
U.S.
for
which
BFA
(or
its
affiliates)
provides
investment
advisory/management
services,
including
open-end
funds
registered
under
the
1940
Act
(including
sub-advised
funds),
collective
trust
funds,
and
institutional
separate
accounts
(collectively,
the
“Other
Accounts”).
The
Board
acknowledged
BFA’s
representation
that
the
iShares
funds
are
fundamentally
different
investment
vehicles
from
the
Other
Accounts.
The
Board
received
detailed
information
regarding
how
the
Other
Accounts
generally
differ
from
the
Fund,
including
in
terms
of
the
types
of
services
and
generally
more
extensive
services
provided
to
the
Fund,
as
well
as
other
significant
differences.
In
that
regard,
the
Board
considered
that
the
pricing
of
services
to
institutional
clients
is
typically
based
on
a
number
of
factors
beyond
the
nature
and
extent
of
the
specific
services
to
be
provided
and
often
depends
on
the
overall
relationship
between
the
client
and
its
affiliates
and
the
adviser
and
its
affiliates.
In
addition,
the
Board
considered
the
relative
complexity
and
inherent
risks
and
challenges
of
managing
and
providing
other
services
to
the
Fund,
as
a
publicly
traded
investment
vehicle,
as
compared
to
the
Other
Accounts,
particularly
those
that
are
institutional
clients,
in
light
of
differing
regulatory
requirements
and
client-imposed
mandates.
The
Board
noted
that
BFA
and
its
affiliates
do
not
manage
Other
Accounts
with
substantially
the
same
investment
objective
and
strategy
as
the
Fund
and
that
track
the
same
index
as
the
Fund.
The
Board
also
acknowledged
management’s
assertion
that,
for
certain
iShares
funds,
and
for
client
segmentation
purposes,
BlackRock
has
launched
an
iShares
fund
that
may
provide
a
similar
investment
exposure
at
a
lower
investment
advisory
fee
rate.
The
Board
considered
the
“all-inclusive”
nature
of
the
Fund’s
advisory
fee
structure,
and
the
Fund’s
expenses
borne
by
BFA
under
this
arrangement
and
noted
that
the
investment
advisory
fee
rate
under
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
Fund
was
generally
higher
than
the
investment
advisory/management
fee
rates
for
certain
of
the
Other
Accounts
(particularly
institutional
clients)
and
concluded
that
the
differences
appeared
to
be
consistent
with
the
factors
discussed.
Other
Benefits
to
BFA
and/or
its
Affiliates:
The
Board
reviewed
other
benefits
or
ancillary
revenue
received
by
BFA
and/or
its
affiliates
in
connection
with
the
services
provided
to
the
Fund
by
BFA,
both
direct
and
indirect,
including,
but
not
limited
to,
payment
of
revenue
to
BTC,
the
Fund’s
securities
lending
agent,
for
loaning
portfolio
securities
(which
was
included
in
the
profit
margins
reviewed
by
the
Board
pursuant
to
BFA’s
estimated
profitability
methodology),
payment
of
advisory
fees
or
other
fees
to
BFA
(or
its
affiliates)
in
connection
with
any
investments
by
the
Fund
in
other
funds
for
which
BFA
(or
its
affiliates)
provides
investment
advisory
services
or
other
services,
and
BlackRock’s
profile
in
the
investment
community.
The
Board
also
noted
the
revenue
received
by
BFA
and/or
its
affiliates
pursuant
to
an
agreement
that
permits
a
service
provider
to
use
certain
portions
of
BlackRock’s
technology
platform
to
service
accounts
managed
by
BFA
and/or
its
affiliates,
including
the
iShares
funds.
The
Board
noted
that
BFA
generally
does
not
use
soft
dollars
or
consider
the
value
of
research
or
other
services
that
may
be
provided
to
BFA
(including
its
affiliates)
in
selecting
brokers
for
portfolio
transactions
for
the
Fund.
The
Board
concluded
that
any
such
ancillary
benefits
would
not
be
disadvantageous
to
the
Fund
and
thus
would
not
alter
the
Board’s
conclusion
with
respect
to
the
appropriateness
of
approving
the
continuance
of
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
coming
year.
Conclusion:
Based
on
a
review
of
the
factors
described
above,
as
well
as
such
other
factors
as
deemed
appropriate
by
the
Board,
the
Board,
including
all
of
the
Independent
Board
Members,
determined
that
the
Fund’s
investment
advisory
fee
rate
under
the
Advisory
Agreement
does
not
constitute
a
fee
that
is
so
disproportionately
large
as
to
bear
no
reasonable
relationship
to
the
services
rendered
and
that
could
not
have
been
the
product
of
arm’s-length
bargaining,
and
concluded
to
approve
the
continuance
of
the
Advisory
Agreement
for
the
coming
year.
