Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 1
The first few months of 2021 have brought some better news on the COVID-19 global pandemic front, as the deployment of the first approved COVID-19 vaccines is well underway, with expectations for widespread vaccine distribution by the middle of the year. In general, COVID-19 cases and related hospitalizations have been on the decline in the US, despite a few problematic “hot spots” in some states, and that has had a positive effect on overall market sentiment.
While there may finally be a light visible at the end of the pandemic tunnel, the long-term impact on the global economy from COVID-19, while currently unknown, is likely to be considerable. It is clear that several industries have already felt greater effects than others, and the markets, which do not thrive on uncertainty, have been volatile. With that said, in the first few months of 2021, equity markets and other so-called “riskier” assets, such as high-yield bonds, have outperformed investments regarded as less risky, such as government debt. In addition, we’ve witnessed the long-awaited rebound in the performance of cyclical stocks, or stocks of companies with greater exposure to the ebbs and flows of the economic cycle, as investors have appeared to embrace the potential for a more widespread reopening of the economy in the coming months. Additional fiscal stimulus from the US government in recent months has also helped provide some market momentum.
However, despite the dramatic market rebound since its March 2020 low point, volatility has remained elevated, with momentum rising and falling on seemingly every bit of positive or negative news about the virus. In addition, the recent US Presidential and Congressional elections have resulted in a power shift in Washington, DC, and that most likely portends some changes in fiscal policy above and beyond just additional pandemic-related stimulus. That, too, could lead to increased market volatility as investors analyze the various tax and spending plans, and wait to see what proposed policy alterations actually become law.
With the advent of COVID-19 in early 2020, we implemented our business continuity plan according to the new COVID-19 guidelines, and most of our employees have been working remotely since March 2020. To date, our operating environment has faced no interruption. I am proud of the careful planning that has taken place and confident we can maintain this environment for as long as is prudent. History in the making for a company that first opened its doors way back in 1928.

Since 1928, Amundi US’s investment process has been built on a foundation of fundamental research and active management, principles which have guided our investment decisions for more than 90 years. We believe active management – that is, making active investment decisions – can help mitigate the risks during periods of market volatility. As 2020 has reminded us, investment risk can arise from a number of factors in today’s global economy, including slower or stagnating growth, changing U.S. Federal Reserve policy, oil price shocks, political and geopolitical factors and, unfortunately, major public health concerns such as a viral pandemic.
At Amundi US, active management begins with our own fundamental, bottom-up research process. Our team of dedicated research analysts and portfolio managers analyzes each security under consideration, communicating directly with the management teams of the companies issuing the securities and working together to identify those securities that best meet our investment criteria for our family of funds. Our risk management approach begins with each and every security, as we strive to carefully understand the potential opportunity, while considering any and all risk factors.
Today, as investors, we have many options. It is our view that active management can serve shareholders well, not only when markets are thriving, but also during periods of market stress.
As you consider your long-term investment goals, we encourage you to work with your financial professional to develop an investment plan that paves the way for you to pursue both your short-term and long-term goals.
We remain confident that the current crisis, like others in human history, will pass, and we greatly appreciate the trust you have placed in us and look forward to continuing to serve you in the future.
Sincerely,
Lisa M. Jones
Head of the Americas, President and CEO of US

Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 3
In the following interview, portfolio managers Seth Roman, Jonathan Sharkey, Noah Funderburk, and Nicolas Pauwels discuss the factors that influenced the performance of Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021. Mr. Roman, a vice president and a portfolio manager at Amundi Asset Management US, Inc. (Amundi US); Mr. Sharkey, a senior vice president and a portfolio manager at Amundi US; Mr. Funderburk, a vice president and a portfolio manager at Amundi US; and Mr. Pauwels, a vice president and a portfolio manager at Amundi US, are responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund.
Q How did the Fund perform during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund’s Class A shares returned 6.42% at net asset value (NAV) during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021, while the Fund’s benchmark, the ICE Bank of America 3-Month US Dollar LIBOR Index (the ICE BofA Index), returned 0.64%. During the same period, the average return of the 231 mutual funds in Morningstar’s Ultrashort Bond category was 3.38%.
Q How would you describe the market environment for fixed-income investors over the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A Entering the period, social-distancing and shelter-in-place measures enacted to help curb the spread of COVID-19 had profound economic effects and resulted in significant reductions in services consumption, manufacturing activity, construction, and labor demand.
The unprecedented decision to shut down much of the US economy in the spring of 2020 necessitated unprecedented monetary and fiscal policy responses. March 2020 saw the US Federal Reserve (Fed) jump into action by dusting off its 2008/2009 policy “playbook” and rapidly rolling out a raft of programs aimed at restoring market liquidity, facilitating credit availability, and boosting investors’ confidence. The measures included: reducing the benchmark federal funds rate target range to zero; a commitment to making unlimited purchases of US Treasuries and agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS); and providing support for commercial-paper issuance, mutual fund liquidity needs, and the issuance of asset-backed securities (ABS). On March 23, 2020, the Fed then opened an entirely new playbook with the announcement of purchasing programs in support of both the new-issue and secondary corporate bond markets. The end of March 2020 also saw US lawmakers approve a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package for both individuals and businesses.
4 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
The extraordinary support from policy makers in the wake of the pandemic was met with enthusiasm by the markets as the second quarter of 2020 got underway. Investors sought to put money to work at the now much-wider credit spreads, estimating that they would receive fair compensation (via higher yields) for taking on the increased default risk. (Credit spreads are commonly defined as the differences in yield between Treasuries and other types of fixed-income securities with similar maturities).
As the second quarter of 2020 progressed, investors became increasingly optimistic that steps toward reopening the economy would support something resembling a “V-shaped” recovery (a sudden, sharp rise). The result was a resurgence in positive sentiment towards riskier assets that allowed credit-sensitive areas of the bond market to recover much of their earlier losses, even as rising numbers of COVID-19 cases in a number of states raised concerns during the summer months.
The markets experienced some volatility over the next few months, but still continued to produce generally solid performance. Then, the emergency-use approval of the first COVID-19 vaccines, and the removal of political uncertainty with the finalization of the November US election results, led to an increase in investors’ confidence heading into 2021. In January, the outlook received a further boost when the Democrats won two runoff elections to gain control of the US Senate (in addition to the White House and the House of Representatives), thus increasing the odds of more fiscal stimulus from the US government. A $1.9 trillion stimulus package soon followed, with proposals for infrastructure and additional stimulus spending also in the offing.
Meanwhile, the successful rollouts of the COVID-19 vaccines in the US as the winter months progressed, combined with a general decline in COVID-19 cases and the ongoing reopening of the economies in certain US states, were other factors contributing to improved investor sentiment. Along with strong global manufacturing reports, those developments fueled increasing US Treasury yields and led to heightened inflation expectations as well as higher commodity prices. Late in the period, the markets received more good news as the Fed indicated that it would remain very “dovish” in its posture on monetary policy. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell reinforced the central bank’s intent to remain “on the sidelines” with regard to interest-rate hikes until at least 2023, based on the view that near-term increases in inflation above the Fed’s typical 2% target would be transitory, and not structural. To that point, the mid-March 2021 Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting gave Fed members an opportunity to reinforce their commitment to the new “flexible average inflation target” policy framework.
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 5
Q Can you review your principal investment strategies during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021, and how the strategies affected the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance?
A Positive contributions to the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance during the 12-month period were led by investments in securitized assets, with allocations to residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), commercial MBS (CMBS), and asset-backed securities (ABS) providing the largest benefits. The Fund has remained overweight to securitized assets versus its peers.
RMBS have benefited from a strong housing market and a continued decline in the number of mortgages in forbearance. The Standard & Poor’s CoreLogic Case-Schiller US National Home Price Index has shown an 11.2% year-over-year improvement in housing prices, the best performance since 2014. Forbearance rates have continued to decline, with the latest Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac data showing forbearance at 2.5%. With regard to the housing market, existing home sales have surprised to the upside of late. Within RMBS, the Fund held approximately 10% of its net assets (as of period-end) in credit-risk-transfer (CRT) issues, which transfer some of the risk of non-payment on residential mortgages from government-sponsored entities to the private sector. The positive housing news has supported investor sentiment for CRT issues and, in our view, CRTs have continued to offer compelling value, given low defaults and declining forbearance rates as well as extended forbearance periods.
The Fund’s CMBS exposures also contributed positively to benchmark-relative performance. The portfolio’s lodging single-asset/single-borrower spreads have benefited from recovering hotel revenues, in particular within the economy, limited service, and drive-to-destination hotel segments. Those hotel subsectors have recovered much of their COVID-19-driven revenue declines. We believe recoveries in fly-to-destination hotel and business-travel hotel revenues could follow suit, but at a slower pace. The CMBS and ABS hotel/vacation real estate markets have shown continued strength, with increased merger-and-acquisition activity. Some new leading indicators in hotel data have also been encouraging. Extended-stay hotels appear to have weathered the COVID-19 crisis well, while most others, such as limited-service hotels, saw significant declines, but have been recovering of late. The recovery trend has been more prominent in popular vacation destinations, such as Florida, and in US states that have reopened more broadly. Current expectations are that urban hotels, which typically have relied on business travel and conventions, could continue to see depressed revenues for the near future. Prices on bonds backed by hotels have rebounded substantially from the depths of one year ago, while
6 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
bonds backed by other property types, such as multi-family, logistics, and offices, have mostly rebounded up to, or at least close to their pre-pandemic levels.
ABS exposures were another positive contributor to the Fund’s relative results for the 12-month period, as stronger-than-expected retail sales and the wider reopening of the economy have aided the performance of consumer-related sectors. Some non-traditional or “off-the-run” ABS sectors and the non-AAA-rated part of the capital structure within traditional ABS sectors have provided attractive investment opportunities, in our opinion, as the market’s rotation into securities that may potentially generate incremental yield has continued unabated. The US consumer has remained strong, with a 40-year high savings rate of 13.7% according to recent data, and income levels (even without fiscal stimulus) that have exceeded pre-pandemic levels. In addition, banks have continued to release loss reserves due to better-than-expected loss experience on their credit card and auto loan exposures. Meanwhile, used car prices have reached record highs, rising by 3.8% in February 2021 alone, for a 17.9% year-over-year gain. That was the fastest year-over-year gain since 2009, when the government’s “cash for clunkers” program created a supply/demand imbalance in the used car market. We have not been concerned with the credit quality of auto-related ABS, but these figures, in our view, represent another data point suggesting both pent-up demand and surplus consumer savings.
Other sector allocations that had positive effects on the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance during the 12-month period included exposure to financials and industrials issues within corporate credit, which fared well overall, despite short-term spread widening and volatility in the financials sector toward the end of the period.
Additional contributions to the Fund’s positive benchmark-relative returns came from allocations to bank loans and collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). Bank loans have been experiencing their highest new-issue market since 2014, and the loan market has seen lower demand for paper trading above par (face) value that could be at risk of refinancing, thus illustrating investors’ preference for new loan issues. Issues trading above par value have fallen in number from over 50% to 20% of the market, and so we believe both market and return prospects for bank loans have improved going forward. We believe bank loans have remained strong in general, although we have not been witnessing the torrid spread-compression we saw earlier in the 12-month period. Meanwhile, CLO demand has remained robust.
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 7
Finally, an allocation to insurance-linked securities (ILS) aided the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance over the past 12 months. We believe ILS exposures could add value to the Fund, given that performance of ILS has typically been uncorrelated to the performance of other financial assets.
During a 12-month period that saw the Fund outperform the ICE BofA Index by a fairly wide margin, there were no notable detractors from benchmark-relative returns.
Q Can you discuss the factors that affected the Fund’s income-generation, or distributions* to shareholders, either positively or negatively, during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A Credit spreads narrowed over the 12-month period, which led to a reduction in the Fund’s income-generation. However, we believe the levels of income generated by the Fund have remained attractive, given the continued low-interest-rate environment.
Q Did the Fund have any exposure to derivatives during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A The Fund had light exposure to some index futures contracts during the 12-month period, which had a negligible effect on performance.
Q What is your assessment of the current investment environment in the fixed-income markets?
A The Fed has continued to message that it is willing to keep monetary policy accommodative for an extended period of time. While “an extended period of time” seems to be a purposefully vague duration, public comments from members of the FOMC have suggested that they could be thinking the “extended period” equals at least one year. Since the Fed has indicated that it will ignore this year’s expected rise in inflation and view it as transitory, the attention of both investors and policy makers could turn to 2022 inflation measures. If the FOMC, as suggested, waits for a full year with Core PCE (personal consumption) inflation at more than 2% before tightening monetary policy, rate hikes could be off the table until 2023, in our opinion. That would be consistent with the Fed’s own “dot plot” chart projections. (The Fed’s “dot” plot/projection is a quarterly chart summarizing the outlook for the federal funds rate for each of the FOMC’s members.)
* Distributions are not guaranteed.
8 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
Market pricing, however, has reflected a somewhat faster pace for rate hikes, due in part to the possibility that the markets may not “buy” the Fed’s new operating framework. However, we feel it is important to understand that actual market pricing has reflected a combination of possible outcomes rather than single-point forecasts.
While we believe inflation is likely to be lower in 2022 than in 2021, the balance of inflation risks has been skewed to the upside, given massive debt-financed US fiscal stimulus and the prospect of government policies –such as a minimum wage hike, easier unionization, and generous unemployment benefits – that could potentially boost wage growth.
Given the likelihood of additional fiscal stimulus and a more-rapid US economic reopening, we have revised up our base-case 2021 US gross domestic product (GDP) growth forecast. The demand-driven growth dynamic could be positive for corporate fundamentals and consumer balance sheets. In turn, solid issuer fundamentals and still-elevated investor cash balances (earning close to 0% yield) may support further spread-asset performance.
We believe higher US Treasury yields present a risk to broad-market performance, to the extent that tighter financial conditions could start to weigh on economic activity. By our estimates, a 10-year US Treasury yield in the 2.50% to 3.00% area may likely become problematic for certain market segments and for economic growth. We currently regard the risk of such a move as minor; however, we have been monitoring conditions closely, as strong monthly economic data reports could push yields marginally higher in the coming months.
We continue to believe that the Fund offers a compelling option for investors seeking a strategic short-term alternative.
Please refer to the Schedule of Investments on pages 21–87 for a full listing of Fund securities.
All investments are subject to risk, including the possible loss of principal. In the past several years, financial markets have experienced increased volatility and heightened uncertainty. The market prices of securities may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political, or regulatory conditions, recessions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates, lack of liquidity in the bond markets, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues or adverse investor sentiment. These conditions may continue, recur, worsen or spread.
The Fund has the ability to invest in a wide variety of debt securities.
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 9
The Fund’s investments, payment obligations and financing terms may be based on floating rates, such as LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate). Plans are underway to phase out the use of LIBOR. There remains uncertainty regarding the nature of any replacement rate and the impact of the transition from LIBOR on the Fund, issuers of instruments in which the Fund invests, and financial markets generally.
The Fund may invest in underlying funds (including ETFs). In addition to the Fund’s operating expenses, you will indirectly bear the operating expenses of investments in any underlying funds.
The Fund and some of the underlying funds may utilize strategies that have a leveraging effect on the Fund, which increases the volatility of investment returns and subjects the Fund to magnified losses if the Fund’s or an underlying fund’s investments decline in value.
The Fund and some of the underlying funds may use derivatives, such as options and futures, which can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses, and have a potentially large impact on Fund performance.
The Fund may invest in inflation-linked securities. As inflationary expectations increase, inflation-linked securities may become more attractive, because they protect future interest payments against inflation. Conversely, as inflationary concerns decrease, inflation-linked securities will become less attractive and less valuable.
The Fund may invest in credit default swaps, which may in some cases be illiquid, and they increase credit risk since the Fund has exposure to both the issuer of the referenced obligation and the counterparty to the credit default swap.
The Fund may invest in subordinated securities which may be disproportionately adversely affected by a default or even a perceived decline in creditworthiness of the issuer.
The Fund may invest in floating rate loans. The value of collateral, if any, securing a floating rate loan can decline or may be insufficient to meet the issuer’s obligations or may be difficult to liquidate.
The Fund may invest in insurance-linked securities. The return of principal and the payment of interest and/or dividends on insurance-linked securities are contingent on the non-occurrence of a pre-defined “trigger” event, such as a hurricane or an earthquake of a specific magnitude.
The Fund may invest in zero-coupon bonds and payment-in-kind securities, which may be more speculative and fluctuate more in value than other fixed income securities. The accrual of income from these securities are payable as taxable annual dividends to shareholders.
Investments in equity securities are subject to price fluctuation.
International investments are subject to special risks including currency fluctuations, social, economic and political uncertainties, which could increase volatility. These risks are magnified in emerging markets.
10 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
Investments in fixed-income securities involve interest rate, credit, inflation, and reinvestment risks. As interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities generally falls.
The Fund may invest in mortgage-backed securities, which during times of fluctuating interest rates may increase or decrease more than other fixed-income securities. Mortgage-backed securities are also subject to pre-payments.
Prepayment risk is the chance that an issuer may exercise its right to prepay its security, if falling interest rates prompt the issuer to do so. Forced to reinvest the unanticipated proceeds at lower interest rates, the Fund would experience a decline in income and lose the opportunity for additional price appreciation.
High yield bonds possess greater price volatility, illiquidity, and possibility of default.
There may be insufficient or illiquid collateral securing the floating rate loans held within the Fund. This may reduce the future redemption or recovery value of such loans.
The Fund may have disadvantaged access to confidential information that could be used to assess a loan issuer, as Amundi normally seeks to avoid receiving material, non-public information.
The Fund is not a money market fund.
These risks may increase share price volatility.
There is no assurance that these and other strategies used by the Fund or underlying funds will be successful.
Please see the prospectus for a more complete discussion of the Fund’s risks.

The ICE Bank of America U.S. Dollar 3-Month LIBOR Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of a synthetic asset paying the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), with a constant 3-month average maturity. The index is based on the assumed purchase at par value of a synthetic instrument having exactly its stated maturity and with a coupon equal to that day’s 3-month LIBOR rate. Index returns assume reinvestment of dividends and, unlike Fund returns, do not reflect any fees, expenses or sales charges. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
The index defined here pertains to the “Value of $10,000 Investment” and “Value of $5 Million Investment” charts on pages 14–18.

The performance data quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Class C2 shares held for less than 1 year are subject to a 1% contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). “If Held” results represent the percentage change in net asset value per share. “If Redeemed” returns would have been lower had sales charges been reflected. All results are historical and assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Other share classes are available for which performance and expenses will differ.
The performance shown for periods prior to the commencement of operations of Class C2 shares on August 1, 2013, is the net asset value performance of the Fund’s Class C shares, which has not been restated to reflect any differences in expenses. For the period beginning August 1, 2013, the actual performance of Class C2 shares is reflected.
Performance results reflect any applicable expense waivers in effect during the periods shown. Without such waivers Fund performance would be lower. Waivers may not be in effect for all funds.

The performance data quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
The performance shown for Class K shares for the period prior to the commencement of operations of Class K shares on December 20, 2012, is the net asset value performance of the Fund’s Class A shares, which has not been restated to reflect any differences in expenses, including Rule 12b-1 fees applicable to Class A shares. Since fees for Class A shares generally are higher than those of Class K shares, the performance of Class K shares prior to their inception would have been higher than the performance shown. For the period beginning on December 20, 2012, the actual performance of Class K shares is reflected. Class K shares are not subject to sales charges and are available for limited groups of eligible investors, including institutional investors. All results are historical and assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Other share classes are available for which performance and expenses will differ.
Performance results reflect any applicable expense waivers in effect during the periods shown. Without such waivers Fund performance would be lower. Waivers may not be in effect for all funds.

18 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
As a shareowner in the Fund, you incur two types of costs:
(1) | ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses; and |
(2) | transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments. |
This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing expenses (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 at the beginning of the Fund’s latest six-month period and held throughout the six months.
Using the Tables
Actual Expenses
The first table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period as follows:
(1) | Divide your account value by $1,000 |
Example: an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6 | |
(2) | Multiply the result in (1) above by the corresponding share class’s number in the third row under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. |
Expenses Paid on a $1,000 Investment in Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund
Based on actual returns from October 1, 2020 through March 31, 2021.
Share Class | A | C | C2 | K | Y |

on 3/31/21 | |||||
Expenses Paid | $3.02 | $4.57 | $4.52 | $1.86 | $2.26 |
During Period* |
* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio of 0.60%, 0.91%, 0.90%, 0.37% and 0.45% for class A, C, C2, K, and Y respectively, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the partial year period). |
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 19
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below 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.
Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) that are charged at the time of the transaction. Therefore, the table below is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund (the “Fund”) is one of three portfolios comprising Pioneer Series Trust X, a Delaware statutory trust. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek a high level of current income to the extent consistent with a relatively high level of stability of principal.
The Fund offers five classes of shares designated as Class A, Class C, Class C2, Class K and Class Y shares. Each class of shares represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments of the Fund and has identical rights (based on relative net asset values) to assets and liquidation proceeds. Share classes can bear different rates of class-specific fees and expenses, such as transfer agent and distribution fees. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different dividends from net investment income earned by each class. The Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust of the Fund gives the Board of Trustees the flexibility to specify either per-share voting or dollar-weighted voting when submitting matters for shareholder approval. Under per-share voting, each share of a class of the Fund is entitled to one vote. Under dollar-weighted voting, a shareowner’s voting power is determined not by the number of shares owned, but by the dollar value of the shares on the record date. Each share class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters affecting only that class, including with respect to the distribution plan for that class. There is no distribution plan for Class K or Class Y shares.
Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Amundi and Amundi’s wholly owned subsidiary, Amundi USA, Inc., serves as the Fund’s investment adviser (the “Adviser”). Prior to January 1, 2021, the Adviser was named Amundi Pioneer Asset Management, Inc. Amundi Distributor US, Inc., an affiliate of Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., serves as the Fund’s distributor (the “Distributor”).
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-13 “Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”) which modifies disclosure requirements for fair value measurements, principally for Level 3 securities and transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Fund has adopted ASU 2018-13 for the year ended March 31, 2021. The impact to the Fund’s adoption was limited to changes in the Fund’s
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 97
disclosures regarding fair value, primarily those disclosures related to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy and disclosure of the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value investments, when applicable.
In March 2020, FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update, ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) — Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional, temporary relief with respect to the financial reporting of contracts subject to certain types of modifications due to the planned discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other LIBOR-based reference rates at the end of 2021. The temporary relief provided by ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on the Fund’s investments, derivatives, debt and other contracts, if applicable, that will undergo reference rate-related modifications as a result of the reference rate reform.
The Fund is an investment company and follows investment company accounting and reporting guidance under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). U.S. GAAP requires the management of the Fund to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income, expenses and gain or loss on investments during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements:
A. Security Valuation
The net asset value of the Fund is computed once daily, on each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open, as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE.
Fixed-income securities are valued by using prices supplied by independent pricing services, which consider such factors as market prices, market events, quotations from one or more brokers, Treasury spreads, yields, maturities and ratings, or may use a pricing matrix or other fair value methods or techniques to provide an estimated value of the security or instrument. A pricing matrix is a means of valuing a debt security on the basis of current market prices for other debt securities, historical trading patterns in the market for fixed-income securities and/or other factors. Non-U.S. debt securities that are listed on an exchange will be valued at the bid price obtained from an independent third party pricing service.
98 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
When independent third party pricing services are unable to supply prices, or when prices or market quotations are considered to be unreliable, the value of that security may be determined using quotations from one or more broker-dealers.
Loan interests are valued in accordance with guidelines established by the Board of Trustees at the mean between the last available bid and asked prices from one or more brokers or dealers as obtained from Loan Pricing Corporation, an independent third party pricing service. If price information is not available from Loan Pricing Corporation, or if the price information is deemed to be unreliable, price information will be obtained from an alternative loan interest pricing service. If no reliable price quotes are available from either the primary or alternative pricing service, broker quotes will be solicited.
Event-linked bonds are valued at the bid price obtained from an independent third party pricing service. Other insurance-linked securities (including reinsurance sidecars, collateralized reinsurance and industry loss warranties) may be valued at the bid price obtained from an independent pricing service, or through a third party using a pricing matrix, insurance industry valuation models, or other fair value methods or techniques to provide an estimated value of the instrument.
Futures contracts are generally valued at the closing settlement price established by the exchange on which they are traded.
The value of foreign securities is translated into U.S. dollars based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing source. Trading in non-U.S. equity securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund’s shares are determined as of such times. The Fund may use a fair value model developed by an independent pricing service to value non-U.S. equity securities.
Repurchase agreements are valued at par. Cash may include overnight time deposits at approved financial institutions.
Securities or loan interests for which independent pricing services or broker-dealers are unable to supply prices or for which market prices and/or quotations are not readily available or are considered to be unreliable are valued by a fair valuation team comprised of certain personnel of the Adviser pursuant to procedures adopted by the Fund’s Board of Trustees. The Adviser’s fair valuation team uses fair value methods approved by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees. The Adviser’s fair valuation team is responsible for monitoring
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 99
developments that may impact fair valued securities and for discussing and assessing fair values on an ongoing basis, and at least quarterly, with the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees.
Inputs used when applying fair value methods to value a security may include credit ratings, the financial condition of the company, current market conditions and comparable securities. The Fund may use fair value methods if it is determined that a significant event has occurred after the close of the exchange or market on which the security trades and prior to the determination of the Fund’s net asset value. Examples of a significant event might include political or economic news, corporate restructurings, natural disasters, terrorist activity or trading halts. Thus, the valuation of the Fund’s securities may differ significantly from exchange prices, and such differences could be material.
At March 31, 2021, no securities were valued using fair value methods (other than securities valued using prices supplied by independent pricing services, broker-dealers or using a third party insurance industry pricing model).
B. Investment Income and Transactions
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are recorded as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the ex-dividend data in the exercise of reasonable diligence.
Interest income, including interest on income-bearing cash accounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend and interest income are reported net of unrecoverable foreign taxes withheld at the applicable country rates and net of income accrued on defaulted securities.
Interest and dividend income payable by delivery of additional shares is reclassified as PIK (payment-in-kind) income upon receipt and is included in interest and dividend income, respectively.
Principal amounts of mortgage-backed securities are adjusted for monthly paydowns. Premiums and discounts related to certain mortgage-backed securities are amortized or accreted in proportion to the monthly paydowns. All discounts/premiums on purchase prices of debt securities are accreted/amortized for financial reporting purposes over the life of the respective securities, and such accretion/amortization is included in interest income.
Security transactions are recorded as of trade date. Gains and losses on sales of investments are calculated on the identified cost method for both financial reporting and federal income tax purposes.
100 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
C. Federal Income Taxes
It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net taxable income and net realized capital gains, if any, to its shareowners. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required. As of March 31, 2021, the Fund did not accrue any interest or penalties with respect to uncertain tax positions, which, if applicable, would be recorded as an income tax expense on the Statement of Operations. Tax returns filed within the prior three years remain subject to examination by federal and state tax authorities.
The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to shareowners are determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Distributions in excess of net investment income or net realized gains are temporary over distributions for financial statement purposes resulting from differences in the recognition or classification of income or distributions for financial statement and tax purposes. Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character, but are not adjusted for temporary differences.
At March 31, 2021, the Fund reclassified $27,456 to decrease distributable earnings and $27,456 to increase paid-in capital to reflect permanent book/tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations.
At March 31, 2021, the Fund was permitted to carry forward indefinitely $146,682,362 of short-term losses and $89,695,256 of long-term losses.
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, were as follows:
2021 | 2020 | |
Distributions paid from: | ||
Ordinary income | $73,465,577 | $174,573,245 |
Total | $73,465,577 | $174,573,245 |
The following shows the components of distributable earnings (losses) on a federal income tax basis at March 31, 2021:
2021 | |
Distributable earnings/(losses): | |
Undistributed ordinary income | $ 179,723 |
Capital loss carryforward | (236,377,618) |
Current year dividend payable | (382,886) |
Unrealized depreciation | (18,642,511) |
Total | $(255,223,292) |
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 101
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized depreciation is attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, adjustments relating to event-linked bonds, insurance-linked securities and the tax treatment of premium and amortization.
D. Fund Shares
The Fund records sales and repurchases of its shares as of trade date. The Distributor earned $0 in underwriting commissions on the sale of Class A shares during the year ended March 31, 2021.
E. Class Allocations
Income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are calculated at the Fund level and allocated daily to each class of shares based on its respective percentage of adjusted net assets at the beginning of the day.
Distribution fees are calculated based on the average daily net asset value attributable to Class A, Class C and Class C2 shares of the Fund, respectively (see Note 5). Class K and Class Y shares do not pay distribution fees. All expenses and fees paid to the Fund’s transfer agent, for its services are allocated among the classes of shares based on the number of accounts in each class and the ratable allocation of related out-of-pocket expenses (see Note 4).
The Fund declares as daily dividends substantially all of its net investment income. All dividends are paid on a monthly basis. Short-term capital gain distributions, if any, may be declared with the daily dividends. Distributions to shareowners are recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions paid by the Fund with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner and at the same time except that net investment income dividends to Class A, Class C, Class C2, Class K and Class Y shares can reflect different transfer agent and distribution expense rates.
F. Risks
The value of securities held by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, recessions, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, inflation, changes in interest rates, lack of liquidity in the bond markets or adverse investor sentiment. In the past several years, financial markets have experienced increased volatility, depressed valuations, decreased liquidity and heightened uncertainty. These conditions may continue, recur, worsen or spread. A general rise in interest rates could adversely affect the price and liquidity of fixed-income securities and could also result in increased redemptions from the Fund.
102 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
At times, the Fund’s investments may represent industries or industry sectors that are interrelated or have common risks, making the Fund more susceptible to any economic, political, or regulatory developments or other risks affecting those industries and sectors. The Fund’s investments in foreign markets and countries with limited developing markets may subject the Fund to a greater degree of risk than investments in a developed market. These risks include disruptive political or economic conditions and the imposition of adverse governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions.
The Fund invests in below-investment-grade (high-yield) debt securities and preferred stocks. Some of these high-yield securities may be convertible into equity securities of the issuer. Debt securities rated below-investment-grade are commonly referred to as “junk bonds” and are considered speculative. These securities involve greater risk of loss, are subject to greater price volatility, and are less liquid, especially during periods of economic uncertainty or change, than higher rated debt securities.
The Fund’s investments, payment obligations and financing terms may be based on floating rates, such as LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate). Plans are underway to phase out the use of LIBOR. The UK Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) and LIBOR’s administrator, ICE Benchmark Administration (“IBA”), have announced that most LIBOR rates will no longer be published after the end of 2021 and a majority of U.S. dollar LIBOR rates will no longer be published after June 30, 2023. It is possible that the FCA may compel the IBA to publish a subset of LIBOR settings after these dates on a “synthetic” basis, but any such publications would be considered non-representative of the underlying markets. There remains uncertainty regarding the nature of any replacement rate and the impact of the transition from LIBOR on the fund, issuers of instruments in which the fund invests, and financial markets generally.
With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet to conduct business, the Fund is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. While the Fund’s Adviser has established business continuity plans in the event of, and risk management systems to prevent, limit or mitigate, such cyber-attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems, including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, the Fund cannot control the cybersecurity plans and systems put in place by service providers to the Fund such as Brown Brothers Harriman & Co., the Fund’s custodian and accounting agent, and DST Asset Manager Solutions, Inc., the Fund’s transfer agent. In addition, many beneficial owners of Fund shares hold them through accounts at
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 103
broker-dealers, retirement platforms and other financial market participants over which neither the Fund nor the Adviser exercises control. Each of these may in turn rely on service providers to them, which are also subject to the risk of cyber-attacks. Cybersecurity failures or breaches at the Adviser or the Fund’s service providers or intermediaries have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with the Fund’s ability to calculate its net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of Fund shareowners to effect share purchases, redemptions or exchanges or receive distributions, loss of or unauthorized access to private shareowner information and violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, or additional compliance costs. Such costs and losses may not be covered under any insurance. In addition, maintaining vigilance against cyber-attacks may involve substantial costs over time, and system enhancements may themselves be subject to cyber-attacks.
COVID-19
The respiratory illness COVID-19 caused by a novel coronavirus has resulted in a global pandemic and major disruption to economies and markets around the world, including the United States. Global financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and severe losses, and trading in many instruments has been disrupted. Liquidity for many instruments has been greatly reduced for periods of time. Some interest rates are very low and in some cases yields are negative. Some sectors of the economy and individual issuers have experienced particularly large losses. These circumstances may continue for an extended period of time, and may continue to affect adversely the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments. The ultimate economic fallout from the pandemic, and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries and individual issuers, are not known. Governments and central banks, including the Federal Reserve in the U.S., have taken extraordinary and unprecedented actions to support local and global economies and the financial markets. These actions have resulted in significant expansion of public debt, including in the U.S. The impact of these measures, and whether they will be effective to mitigate the economic and market disruption, will not be known for some time. The consequences of high public debt, including its future impact on the economy and securities markets, likewise may not be known for some time.
The Fund’s prospectus contains unaudited information regarding the Fund���s principal risks. Please refer to that document when considering the Fund’s principal risks.
104 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
G. Restricted Securities
Restricted Securities are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Restricted securities generally are resold in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Private placement securities are generally considered to be restricted except for those securities traded between qualified institutional investors under the provisions of Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933.
Disposal of restricted investments may involve negotiations and expenses, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult to achieve. Restricted investments held by the Fund at March 31, 2021 are listed in the Schedule of Investments.
H. Insurance-Linked Securities (“ILS”)
The Fund invests in ILS. The Fund could lose a portion or all of the principal it has invested in an ILS, and the right to additional interest or dividend payments with respect to the security, upon the occurrence of one or more trigger events, as defined within the terms of an insurance-linked security. Trigger events, generally, are hurricanes, earthquakes, or other natural events of a specific size or magnitude that occur in a designated geographic region during a specified time period, and/or that involve losses or other metrics that exceed a specific amount. There is no way to accurately predict whether a trigger event will occur, and accordingly, ILS carry significant risk. The Fund is entitled to receive principal, and interest and/or dividend payments so long as no trigger event occurs of the description and magnitude specified by the instrument. In addition to the specified trigger events, ILS may expose the Fund to other risks, including but not limited to issuer (credit) default, adverse regulatory or jurisdictional interpretations and adverse tax consequences.
The Fund’s investments in ILS may include event-linked bonds. ILS also may include special purpose vehicles (“SPVs”) or similar instruments structured to comprise a portion of a reinsurer’s catastrophe-oriented business, known as quota share instruments (sometimes referred to as reinsurance sidecars), or to provide reinsurance relating to specific risks to insurance or reinsurance companies through a collateralized instrument, known as collateralized reinsurance. Structured reinsurance investments also may include industry loss warranties (“ILWs”). A traditional ILW takes the form of a bilateral reinsurance contract, but there are also products that take the form of derivatives, collateralized structures, or exchange-traded instruments.
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 105
Where the ILS are based on the performance of underlying reinsurance contracts, the Fund has limited transparency into the individual underlying contracts, and therefore must rely upon the risk assessment and sound underwriting practices of the issuer. Accordingly, it may be more difficult for the Adviser to fully evaluate the underlying risk profile of the Fund’s structured reinsurance investments, and therefore the Fund’s assets are placed at greater risk of loss than if the Adviser had more complete information. Structured reinsurance instruments generally will be considered illiquid securities by the Fund. These securities may be difficult to purchase, sell or unwind. Illiquid securities also may be difficult to value. If the Fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset, the Fund may be forced to sell at a loss.
I. Repurchase Agreements
Repurchase agreements are arrangements under which the Fund purchases securities from a broker-dealer or a bank, called the counterparty, upon the agreement of the counterparty to repurchase the securities from the Fund at a later date, and at a specific price, which is typically higher than the purchase price paid by the Fund. The securities purchased serve as the Fund’s collateral for the obligation of the counterparty to repurchase the securities. The value of the collateral, including accrued interest, is required to be equal to or in excess of the repurchase price. The collateral for all repurchase agreements is held in safekeeping in the customer-only account of the Fund’s custodian or a sub-custodian of the Fund. The Adviser is responsible for determining that the value of the collateral remains at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event of a default by the counterparty, the Fund is entitled to sell the securities, but the Fund may not be able to sell them for the price at which they were purchased, thus causing a loss to the Fund. Additionally, if the counterparty becomes insolvent, there is some risk that the Fund will not have a right to the securities, or the immediate right to sell the securities.
Open repurchase agreements at March 31, 2021, are disclosed in the Schedule of Investments.
J. Futures Contracts
The Fund may enter into futures transactions in order to attempt to hedge against changes in interest rates, securities prices and currency exchange rates or to seek to increase total return. Futures contracts are types of derivatives. All futures contracts entered into by the Fund are traded on a futures exchange. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with a broker an amount of cash or securities equal to
106 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
the minimum “initial margin” requirements of the associated futures exchange. The amount of cash deposited with the broker as collateral at March 31, 2021, is recorded as “Futures collateral” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Subsequent payments for futures contracts (“variation margin”) are paid or received by the Fund, depending on the daily fluctuation in the value of the contracts, and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Cash received from or paid to the broker related to previous margin movement is held in a segregated account at the broker and is recorded as either “Due from broker for futures” or “Due to broker for futures” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When the contract is closed, the Fund realizes a gain or loss equal to the difference between the opening and closing value of the contract as well as any fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates where applicable. Futures contracts are subject to market risk, interest rate risk and currency exchange rate risk. Changes in value of the contracts may not directly correlate to the changes in value of the underlying securities. With futures, there is reduced counterparty credit risk to the Fund since futures are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.
The average market value of futures contracts open during the year ended March 31, 2021, was $(49,598,323). Open futures contracts outstanding at March 31, 2021, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.
2. Management Agreement
The Adviser manages the Fund’s portfolio. Management fees are calculated daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of 0.35% of the Fund’s average daily net assets up to $1 billion, 0.30% of the next $4 billion of the Fund’s average daily net assets, 0.25% of the next $2.5 billion of the Fund’s average daily net assets and 0.20% of the Fund’s average daily net assets over $7.5 billion. For the year ended March 31, 2021, the effective management fee (excluding waivers and/or assumption of expenses) was equivalent to 0.31% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
In addition, under the management and administration agreements, certain other services and costs, including accounting, regulatory reporting and insurance premiums, are paid by the Fund as administrative reimbursements. Included in “Due to affiliates” reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities is $199,943 in management fees, administrative costs and certain other reimbursements payable to the Adviser at March 31, 2021.
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 107
3. Compensation of Trustees and Officers
The Fund pays an annual fee to its Trustees. The Adviser reimburses the Fund for fees paid to the Interested Trustees. The Fund does not pay any salary or other compensation to its officers. For the year ended March 31, 2021, the Fund paid $264,271 in Trustees’ compensation, which is reflected on the Statement of Operations as Trustees’ fees. At March 31, 2021, the Fund had a payable for Trustees’ fees on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities of $4,960.
4. Transfer Agent
DST Asset Manager Solutions, Inc. serves as the transfer agent to the Fund at negotiated rates. Transfer agent fees and payables shown on the Statement of Operations and the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, respectively, include sub-transfer agent expenses incurred through the Fund’s omnibus relationship contracts.
In addition, the Fund reimbursed the transfer agent for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the transfer agent related to shareowner communications activities such as proxy and statement mailings, and outgoing phone calls. For the year ended March 31, 2021, such out-of-pocket expenses by class of shares were as follows:
Shareowner Communications: | |
Class A | $ 34,064 |
Class C | 11,909 |
Class C2 | 327 |
Class K | 326 |
Class Y | 93,719 |
Total | $140,345 |
5. Distribution Plan
The Fund has adopted a distribution plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 with respect to its Class A, Class C and Class C2 shares. Pursuant to the Plan, the Fund pays the Distributor 0.20% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares as compensation for personal services and/or account maintenance services or distribution services with regard to Class A shares. Pursuant to the Plan, the Fund also pays the Distributor 0.50% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C and Class C2 shares. The fee for Class C and Class C2 shares consists of a 0.25% service fee and a 0.25% distribution fee paid as compensation for personal services and/or account maintenance services or
108 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
distribution services with regard to Class C and Class C2 shares. Included in “Due to affiliates” reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities is $58,469 in distribution fees payable to the Distributor at March 31, 2021.
In addition, redemptions of Class A and Class C2 shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”). A CDSC of 1.00% may be imposed on redemptions of certain net asset value purchases of Class A shares within 12 months of purchase. Redemptions of Class C2 shares redemptions of shares within 12 months of purchase are subject to a CDSC of 1.00%, based on the lower of cost or market value of shares being redeemed. Shares purchased as part of an exchange remain subject to any CDSC that applied to the original purchase of those shares. There is no CDSC for Class C, Class K and Class Y shares. Proceeds from the CDSCs are paid to the Distributor. For the six months ended March 31, 2021, CDSCs in the amount of $13,375 were paid to the Distributor.
6. Line of Credit Facility
The Fund, along with certain other funds in the Pioneer Family of Funds (the “Funds”), participates in a committed, unsecured revolving line of credit (“credit facility”). Borrowings are used solely for temporary or emergency purposes. The Fund may borrow up to the lesser of the amount available under the credit facility or the limits set for borrowing by the Fund’s prospectus and the 1940 Act. Effective February 4, 2021, the Fund participates in a facility in the amount of $450 million. Prior to February 4, 2021, the Fund participated in a facility in the amount of $300 million. Under such facility, depending on the type of loan, interest on borrowings is payable at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a credit spread. The Fund also pays both an upfront fee and an annual commitment fee to participate in a credit facility. The upfront fee in the amount 0.10% of the total credit facility is allocated among the participating Funds based on an allocation schedule set forth in the credit agreement. The commitment fee in the amount of 0.25% of the daily unused portion of each lenders commitment is allocated among participating Funds based on an allocation schedule set forth in the credit agreement. For the year ended March 31, 2021, the Fund had no borrowings under the credit facility.
7. Additional Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Fund’s use of derivatives may enhance or mitigate the Fund’s exposure to the following risks:
Interest rate risk relates to the fluctuations in the value of interest-bearing securities due to changes in the prevailing levels of market interest rates.
Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 109
Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer of a financial instrument to make further principal or interest payments on an obligation or commitment that it has to the Fund.
Foreign exchange rate risk relates to fluctuations in the value of an asset or liability due to changes in currency exchange rates.

Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 111
To the Board of Trustees of Pioneer Series Trust X and the Shareholders of Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Pioneer Series Trust X (the “Trust”)), including the schedule of investments, as of March 31, 2021, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the four years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). The financial highlights for the period ended March 31, 2017 were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated May 26, 2017, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund (one of the funds constituting Pioneer Series Trust X) at March 31, 2021, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the four years in the period then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
112 Pioneer Multi-Asset Ultrashort Income Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
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 procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more Amundi Pioneer investment companies since 2017.

Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 1
The first few months of 2021 have brought some better news on the COVID-19 global pandemic front, as the deployment of the first approved COVID-19 vaccines is well underway, with expectations for widespread vaccine distribution by the middle of the year. In general, COVID-19 cases and related hospitalizations have been on the decline in the US, despite a few problematic “hot spots” in some states, and that has had a positive effect on overall market sentiment.
While there may finally be a light visible at the end of the pandemic tunnel, the long-term impact on the global economy from COVID-19, while currently unknown, is likely to be considerable. It is clear that several industries have already felt greater effects than others, and the markets, which do not thrive on uncertainty, have been volatile. With that said, in the first few months of 2021, equity markets and other so-called “riskier” assets, such as high-yield bonds, have outperformed investments regarded as less risky, such as government debt. In addition, we’ve witnessed the long-awaited rebound in the performance of cyclical stocks, or stocks of companies with greater exposure to the ebbs and flows of the economic cycle, as investors have appeared to embrace the potential for a more widespread reopening of the economy in the coming months. Additional fiscal stimulus from the US government in recent months has also helped provide some market momentum.
However, despite the dramatic market rebound since its March 2020 low point, volatility has remained elevated, with momentum rising and falling on seemingly every bit of positive or negative news about the virus. In addition, the recent US Presidential and Congressional elections have resulted in a power shift in Washington, DC, and that most likely portends some changes in fiscal policy above and beyond just additional pandemic-related stimulus. That, too, could lead to increased market volatility as investors analyze the various tax and spending plans, and wait to see what proposed policy alterations actually become law.
With the advent of COVID-19 in early 2020, we implemented our business continuity plan according to the new COVID-19 guidelines, and most of our employees have been working remotely since March 2020. To date, our operating environment has faced no interruption. I am proud of the careful planning that has taken place and confident we can maintain this environment for as long as is prudent. History in the making for a company that first opened its doors way back in 1928.
2 Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
Since 1928, Amundi US’s investment process has been built on a foundation of fundamental research and active management, principles which have guided our investment decisions for more than 90 years. We believe active management – that is, making active investment decisions – can help mitigate the risks during periods of market volatility. As 2020 has reminded us, investment risk can arise from a number of factors in today’s global economy, including slower or stagnating growth, changing U.S. Federal Reserve policy, oil price shocks, political and geopolitical factors and, unfortunately, major public health concerns such as a viral pandemic.
At Amundi US, active management begins with our own fundamental, bottom-up research process. Our team of dedicated research analysts and portfolio managers analyzes each security under consideration, communicating directly with the management teams of the companies issuing the securities and working together to identify those securities that best meet our investment criteria for our family of funds. Our risk management approach begins with each and every security, as we strive to carefully understand the potential opportunity, while considering any and all risk factors.
Today, as investors, we have many options. It is our view that active management can serve shareholders well, not only when markets are thriving, but also during periods of market stress.
As you consider your long-term investment goals, we encourage you to work with your financial professional to develop an investment plan that paves the way for you to pursue both your short-term and long-term goals.
We remain confident that the current crisis, like others in human history, will pass, and we greatly appreciate the trust you have placed in us and look forward to continuing to serve you in the future.
Sincerely,
Lisa M. Jones
Head of the Americas, President and CEO of US

Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 3
US equity markets rebounded sharply during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021, as investors regained confidence following the bear market sell-off driven by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020. In the following interview, Andrew Acheson and Paul Cloonan discuss the factors that affected the performance of Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund during the 12-month period. Mr. Acheson, Managing Director, Director of Growth, US, and a portfolio manager at Amundi Asset Management US, Inc. (Amundi US), and Mr. Cloonan*, a senior vice president and a portfolio manager at Amundi US, are responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund.
Q How did the Fund perform during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund’s Class A shares returned 55.55% at net asset value during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021, while the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, returned 62.74%.During the same period, the average return of the 1,282 mutual funds in Morningstar’s Large Growth Funds category was 63.57%.
Q How would you describe the investment environment for domestic equity investors during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A While markets endured bouts of volatility, the 12-month period saw equities generally trend higher and finish with notable gains. In the wake of COVID-19-driven shutdowns in the spring of 2020, unprecedented levels of monetary and fiscal stimulus from the US Federal Reserve (Fed) and the US government boosted liquidity in the financial system and quickly generated a sense of optimism that the economic effects of the pandemic, though severe, would be short-lived. Corporate earnings results added to investors’ upbeat outlook, with second-quarter 2020 earnings surpassing consensus estimates by an unprecedented margin of more than 20%.
Markets continued to rally during the summer of 2020, as many US businesses reopened after the initial shutdowns aimed at curbing the spread of the COVID-19 virus. The economy at that time showed several signs of strength, with a surge in consumer spending and housing sales.
* Effective June 30, 2021, Mr. Cloonan will no longer be a portfolio manager on the Fund. Mr. Acheson will become lead portfolio manager and will continue to be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund, along with Yves Raymond, a vice president and portfolio manager at Amundi US, and David Chamberlain, a vice president and portfolio manager at Amundi US, both of whom became portfolio managers on the Fund in April 2021.

The Fed, which had lowered the target range of the federal funds rate effectively to zero at the height of the pandemic-induced market slump, signaled that interest rates would likely remain low for several years, lending support to equity valuations and making fixed-income alternatives far less attractive to investors. However, after reaching new highs in early September 2020, markets became choppier as an uptick in COVID-19 case counts and uncertainty about the November US presidential election combined to prompt a pullback.
Markets for riskier assets, including equities, once again surged higher following the election, and additional stimulus approved by US lawmakers near the end of 2020 further boosted investors’ confidence, as did the emergency-use approval of the first COVID-19 vaccines and the accompanying rollout of vaccine distributions, which market participants viewed as a possible “light at the end of the tunnel” with regard to the pandemic.
The first quarter of 2021 saw markets continue to rally, as the accelerated pace of COVID-19 vaccine distributions, the passage of another $1.9 trillion fiscal stimulus package by the US government, and further supportive messaging from the Fed helped investors gain confidence in the prospects for a sharp economic recovery later in the calendar year.
Growth stocks outperformed value stocks by a wide margin during the 12-month period, extending a streak of outperformance for growth over value that has lasted for several years. Early in the period, high-valuation growth stocks posted the best returns, especially within the information technology sector. As the rally continued, the consumer discretionary sector overtook information technology to lead performance within the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, for the first half of the 12-month period. However, a market rotation towards value stocks began in earnest during the fourth quarter of 2020 and gained momentum over the final months of the period. In fact, value stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Value Index, outperformed growth stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the Russell Index), by more than 10 percentage points during the first quarter of 2021 (January through March), which represented the most dramatic quarterly outperformance by value over growth in 20 years.

Q What factors detracted from the Fund’s performance relative to the benchmark Russell Index during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A During the 12-month period, we maintained our traditional discipline of focusing the Fund’s investments on shares of what we viewed as higher-quality corporations with stable businesses and steady earnings. Given our focus on trying to mitigate risk, the Fund’s performance has typically lagged the return of the benchmark when markets have appreciated significantly, particularly when more-speculative stocks drove the market’s momentum, which was the case for most of the 12-month period.
Three key factors were the biggest detractors from the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance over the 12-month period. First, investors have largely favored high-growth, high-valuation stocks ever since the market began rebounding from the pandemic-induced sell-off of one year ago, and the returns of stocks with the highest price-to-earnings ratios within the Russell Index have far exceeded the overall return of the Fund’s benchmark. We have maintained portfolio underweights to those types of stocks, due to our concerns about the sustainability of their valuations. While many of the stocks started to underperform in the latter part of the 12-month period, we believe there is still a very significant downside risk to owning shares in what we view as those more-speculative equities.
The second factor was the unique nature of the COVID-19 economic contraction, which had a negative effect on some Fund holdings that have historically acted more defensively during recessionary periods. For instance, the off-price retail industry has typically been resistant to recessionary conditions over time. However, store closures due to COVID-19 restrictions caused sales and profits of such retailers to decline sharply, and the slow return to more “normal” business conditions has continued to weigh on the performance of those companies.
Finally, the weighting of the largest five stocks within the Russell Index has grown to record levels. The benchmark’s concentration in a handful of stocks has raised risk-management concerns, in our view, especially as the concentration has also resulted in unprecedented exposure to a single sector within the Russell Index: information technology. In seeking to manage portfolio risk, we have deliberately maintained below-benchmark exposure to those largest five stocks, even as they have outperformed and thus detracted from the Fund’s relative returns.
6 Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
Q Which individual stocks detracted from the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A The two biggest individual detractors from the Fund’s benchmark-relative returns during the 12-month period were the portfolio’s lack of exposure to Tesla, the manufacturer of electric vehicles, and an underweight position in technology giant Apple, as both stocks climbed sharply over the past year. Tesla’s stock valuation has become excessive, in our view, and Apple’s weighting in the Russell Index at times exceeded 11% during the period.
Portfolio overweights that notably detracted from the Fund’s benchmark-relative returns for the 12-month period included a position in snack-and-beverage company PepsiCo. Cost pressures weighed on the company’s earnings throughout 2020 as investments in its marketing and production capacities led PepsiCo to divert capital away from stock repurchases. However, signs toward the end of the period pointed to a potential recovery and rising market shares in key segments of the company’s business.
An overweight position in insurance giant Progressive also detracted from the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance for the 12-month period. Progressive’s profits have tended to be more resilient during economic downturns, as auto insurance coverage is mandatory in nearly all US states. Moreover, auto accidents and resulting insurance claims have typically declined during times of rising unemployment, due to fewer miles being driven by the company’s customers. However, as the economy reopened and driving behavior began returning to pre-pandemic levels, investors’ sentiment towards Progressive waned. We have retained the Fund’s position, as we still believe Progressive’s long-term outlook is positive, given its market-share gains and general profitability.
Q Which investments contributed positively to the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A The largest individual contributor to the Fund’s performance relative to the benchmark for the period was a position in PayPal. PayPal’s large-scale technology platform for digital and mobile payments has benefited from the gradual, secular shift towards a cashless society, and the COVID-19 pandemic has helped accelerate the adoption of electronic
Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 7
payments across the globe. The introduction of cryptocurrency services also contributed to growth in the latter part of the 12-month period. We believe that PayPal could continue to do well if the economy recovers from the pandemic and consumers eventually increase spending in response. The company has featured high returns on capital and a wide “moat” around its business, with a network of more than 375 million users and 29 million merchants. (A wide moat is defined as a type of sustainable competitive advantage possessed by a business that makes it difficult for rivals to wear down its market share.)
Shares of tool-and-hardware manufacturer Stanley Black & Decker also strongly contributed positively to the Fund’s benchmark-relative returns for the 12-month period. The home-improvement industry has been resilient during the pandemic, as individuals working from home have looked to make renovations to accommodate their changing needs. In response, home-improvement retailers have overcome uncertainty about the broader economy and restocked their inventories, which has helped boost Stanley Black & Decker’s revenues. We believe the company’s strong brands, innovation, and global distribution capabilities give it competitive advantages that could sustain solid returns on capital.
Finally, online search and cloud-infrastructure company Alphabet was a notable positive contributor to the Fund’s relative performance. Alphabet for a time had lagged behind many of its peers among large technology companies, but the company saw its search-based advertising business recover during the 12-month period, and pandemic-driven digital investments also boosted demand in the cloud-computing market. We believe those favorable trends may continue for the foreseeable future.
Q Did the Fund have any exposure to derivative securities during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A No, the Fund had no exposure to derivatives during the 12-month period.
Q What were some of the notable additions you made to the Fund’s portfolio during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A Early in the period, we initiated a position in auto-auction firm Copart, which provides auction services to insurance companies related to the salvage of damaged vehicles. The company has consistently generated solid returns on growth capital, driven by its scale and efficiency advantages, and the increase in the number of vehicles considered to be “total losses” in accidents has been another key factor in an increase in the amount of cars sold through auction providers.
8 Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
Later in 2020, we added shares of semiconductor chip-maker Qualcomm to the portfolio. Qualcomm owns numerous patents for the technologies that make up the backbone of 3G, 4G, and coming 5G networks. The company recently reported better-than-expected quarterly earnings results, and we believe that Qualcomm’s intellectual property represents a large and sustainable competitive advantage that could result in profitable growth for the foreseeable future. Other new positions added to the Fund during the period were health insurer Humana and off-price retailer TJX. Humana has benefited from the aging population’s positive effects on the sales of its Medicare Advantage products, which are supplemental insurance plans for Medicare recipients, while TJX has participated in the home-goods boom and has featured a higher-income customer base than fellow Fund holding and industry peer Ross Stores.
Toward the end of the period, we added life-science toolmaker and diagnostic specialist Danaher to the portfolio. The company has generated strong organic growth and returns on capital as its research-and-development activities and pharmaceutical pipeline work have grown. We also have seen opportunities for growth in Danaher’s environment solutions segment. Finally, we added shares of oilfield-services company Schlumberger to the portfolio during the period, as the energy market has shown signs of recovery after a significant slump in the early months of 2020, particularly in the first quarter. Schlumberger has shifted toward higher-margin technological and intellectual property-based services, and we believe its position as one of the market leaders in its industry potentially gives the company competitive advantages over its peers.
Q What were some of the noteworthy positions sold from the Fund’s portfolio during the 12-month period ended March 31, 2021?
A During the period, we exited the Fund’s position in Elanco Animal Health. The company has significantly increased its debt level in order to purchase Bayer’s animal health division. (Bayer is not a Fund holding.) We believe that the increased leverage has raised the company’s risk profile to a degree inconsistent with our focus on quality when picking stocks for the Fund’s portfolio. Moreover, challenges involved in executing a major merger integration during the pandemic have created additional risks for Elanco. Later in the period, we also sold the Fund’s position in Elanco’s industry peer Zoetis, once the stock reached a valuation that no longer seemed justifiable to us, even given a positive outlook for the company’s business.
Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 9
We also sold the Fund’s position in Walmart early in the second half of the 12-month period, primarily due to valuation. Walmart’s successful omni-channel strategy has helped it gain meaningful market share in e-commerce, but the industry has remained fiercely competitive, which could weigh on the company’s returns on capital. Similarly, we closed the Fund’s position in consumer-products company Colgate-Palmolive after having bought shares earlier in the 12-month period. We had made the purchase at what we believed was an opportune moment, but we now think Colgate-Palmolive will have to invest more heavily in its business, which could hurt the company’s profit margins.
We sold the Fund’s shares of materials and chemical company Ecolab during the first quarter of 2021. The stock has traded above our estimate of fair value, and we believe it could take longer for earnings to recover from pandemic-related factors, despite Ecolab’s high levels of service quality and business efficiency.
Finally, we exited the Fund’s out-of-benchmark position in pharmaceutical company Roche, as investors reacted negatively to larger-than-expected declines in sales of some of Roche’s key blockbuster drugs, due to competition from biosimilar treatments. Meanwhile, the pandemic’s impact on clinical-trial activity has limited Roche’s ability to move drug candidates through its pipeline. We also foresaw further challenges from biosimilar competition that could prove difficult for Roche to overcome.
Q What is your outlook heading into the coming fiscal year for the Fund, and how is the outlook reflected in the Fund’s positioning?
A As we look ahead to the remainder of 2021, we believe that the ongoing rollout of COVID-19 vaccinations and the most recent round of economic stimulus from the US government could lead to sharp growth in the US economy during the second half of the calendar year. The yield curve may continue to steepen and, in our view, corporate earnings growth could be strongest for those companies with greater cyclical exposure — or exposure to the ebbs and flows of the economy. The resulting shift in market leadership towards cyclical stocks and away from high-valuation stocks that benefited from historically low interest rates in 2020 could be favorable for the Fund’s holdings. (A yield curve is a line that plots the interest rates, at a set point in time, of bonds having equal credit quality but differing maturity dates.)
10 Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
We believe the Fund’s current holdings are well-suited to benefit from a full reopening of the US and global economies should the vaccine rollouts bring the US and the rest of the world closer to COVID-19 herd immunity. The portfolio currently consists of holdings of what we view as attractively valued, high-quality secular growth stocks, many of which have cyclical economic exposure. By contrast, many of 2020’s strongest performers among high-valuation stocks have already started to underperform in 2021, and we believe owning those more-speculative stocks in the coming year may still present significant downside potential for investors.
Regardless of the macroeconomic backdrop, we have remained committed to investing the Fund in companies that we see as highly profitable and that have strong balance sheets as well as sustainable business models. We seek to hold companies capable of surviving recessions and then emerging with the financial firepower to both invest and thrive during the subsequent recovery.
In sector terms, the Fund remains overweight versus the Russell Index to industrials and financials. Companies in the industrials sector have benefited both from a cyclical economic recovery and from secular growth in industrial automation. Among financials, we have invested the portfolio in what we believe are high-quality firms, which have remained a good fit with our overall approach.
The information technology sector has remained the Fund’s biggest underweight relative to the benchmark heading into the new fiscal year. We continue to have concerns about high valuations and the extreme concentration of the sector within the Russell Index, and have maintained the Fund’s underweight as part of our goal of seeking to manage portfolio risk.

The first table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period as follows:
(1) | Divide your account value by $1,000 |
Example: an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6 | |
(2) | Multiply the result in (1) above by the corresponding share class’s number in the third row under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. |

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below 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.
Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) that are charged at the time of the transaction. Therefore, the table below is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

34 Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund (the “Fund”) is one of three portfolios comprising Pioneer Series Trust X, a Delaware statutory trust. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital growth.
The Fund offers five classes of shares designated as Class A, Class C, Class K, Class R and Class Y shares. Each class of shares represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments of the Fund and has identical rights (based on relative net asset values) to assets and liquidation proceeds. Share classes can bear different rates of class-specific fees and expenses, such as transfer agent and distribution fees. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different dividends from net investment income earned by each class. The Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust of the Fund gives the Board of Trustees the flexibility to specify either per-share voting or dollar-weighted voting when submitting matters for shareowner approval. Under per-share voting, each share of a class of the Fund is entitled to one vote. Under dollar-weighted voting, a shareowner’s voting power is determined not by the number of shares owned, but by the dollar value of the shares on the record date. Each share class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters affecting only that class, including with respect to the distribution plan for that class. There is no distribution plan for Class K or Class Y shares.
Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Amundi and Amundi’s wholly owned subsidiary, Amundi USA, Inc., serves as the Fund’s investment adviser (the “Adviser”). Prior to January 1, 2021, the Adviser was named Amundi Pioneer Asset Management, Inc. Amundi Distributor US, Inc., an affiliate of Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., serves as the Fund’s distributor (the “Distributor”).
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-13 “Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”) which modifies disclosure requirements for fair value measurements, principally for Level 3 securities and transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Fund has adopted ASU 2018-13 for the year ended March 31, 2021. The impact to the Fund’s adoption was limited to changes in the Fund’s
Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 35
disclosures regarding fair value, primarily those disclosures related to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy and disclosure of the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value investments, when applicable.
In March 2020, FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update, ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) — Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional, temporary relief with respect to the financial reporting of contracts subject to certain types of modifications due to the planned discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other LIBOR-based reference rates at the end of 2021. The temporary relief provided by ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on the Fund’s investments, derivatives, debt and other contracts, if applicable, that will undergo reference rate-related modifications as a result of the reference rate reform.
The Fund is an investment company and follows investment company accounting and reporting guidance under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). U.S. GAAP requires the management of the Fund to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income, expenses and gain or loss on investments during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements:
A. Security Valuation
The net asset value of the Fund is computed once daily, on each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open, as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE.
Equity securities that have traded on an exchange are valued by using the last sale price on the principal exchange where they are traded. Equity securities that have not traded on the date of valuation, or securities for which sale prices are not available, generally are valued using the mean between the last bid and asked prices or, if both last bid and asked prices are not available, at the last quoted bid price. Last sale and bid and asked prices are provided by independent third party pricing services. In the case
36 Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
of equity securities not traded on an exchange, prices are typically determined by independent third party pricing services using a variety of techniques and methods.
The value of foreign securities is translated into U.S. dollars based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing source. Trading in non-U.S. equity securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund’s shares are determined as of such times. The Fund may use a fair value model developed by an independent pricing service to value non-U.S. equity securities.
Securities for which independent pricing services or broker-dealers are unable to supply prices or for which market prices and/or quotations are not readily available or are considered to be unreliable are valued by a fair valuation team comprised of certain personnel of the Adviser pursuant to procedures adopted by the Fund’s Board of Trustees. The Adviser’s fair valuation team uses fair value methods approved by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees. The Adviser’s fair valuation team is responsible for monitoring developments that may impact fair valued securities and for discussing and assessing fair values on an ongoing basis, and at least quarterly, with the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees.
Inputs used when applying fair value methods to value a security may include credit ratings, the financial condition of the company, current market conditions and comparable securities. The Fund may use fair value methods if it is determined that a significant event has occurred after the close of the exchange or market on which the security trades and prior to the determination of the Fund’s net asset value. Examples of a significant event might include political or economic news, corporate restructurings, natural disasters, terrorist activity or trading halts. Thus, the valuation of the Fund’s securities may differ significantly from exchange prices, and such differences could be material.
At March 31, 2021, no securities were valued using fair value methods (other than securities valued using prices supplied by independent pricing services, broker-dealers or using a third party insurance industry pricing model).
B. Investment Income and Transactions
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are recorded as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the ex-dividend data in the exercise of reasonable diligence.
Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 37
Interest income, including interest on income-bearing cash accounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend and interest income are reported net of unrecoverable foreign taxes withheld at the applicable country rates and net of income accrued on defaulted securities.
Interest and dividend income payable by delivery of additional shares is reclassified as PIK (payment-in-kind) income upon receipt and is included in interest and dividend income, respectively.
Security transactions are recorded as of trade date. Gains and losses on sales of investments are calculated on the identified cost method for both financial reporting and federal income tax purposes.
C. Federal Income Taxes
It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net taxable income and net realized capital gains, if any, to its shareowners. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required. As of March 31, 2021, the Fund did not accrue any interest or penalties with respect to uncertain tax positions, which, if applicable, would be recorded as an income tax expense on the Statement of Operations. Tax returns filed within the prior three years remain subject to examination by federal and state tax authorities.
The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to shareowners are determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Distributions in excess of net investment income or net realized gains are temporary over distributions for financial statement purposes resulting from differences in the recognition or classification of income or distributions for financial statement and tax purposes. Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character, but are not adjusted for temporary differences.
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, were as follows:
2021 | 2020 | |
Distributions paid from: | ||
Ordinary income | $ 9,677,539 | $ 18,163,279 |
Long-term capital gain | 587,106,021 | 332,234,832 |
Total | $596,783,560 | $350,398,111 |
38 Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
The following shows the components of distributable earnings (losses) on a federal income tax basis at March 31, 2021:
2021 | |
Distributable earnings/(losses): | |
Undistributed ordinary income | $ 25,699,620 |
Undistributed long-term capital gain | 563,704,914 |
Unrealized appreciation | 3,183,013,282 |
Total | $3,772,417,816 |
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation is attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and tax basis adjustments on common stock.
D. Fund Shares
The Fund records sales and repurchases of its shares as of trade date. The Distributor earned $113,211 in underwriting commissions on the sale of Class A shares during the year ended March 31, 2021.
E. Class Allocations
Income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are calculated at the Fund level and allocated daily to each class of shares based on its respective percentage of adjusted net assets at the beginning of the day.
Distribution fees are calculated based on the average daily net asset value attributable to Class A, Class C and Class R shares of the Fund, respectively (see Note 5). Class K and Class Y shares do not pay distribution fees. All expenses and fees paid to the Fund’s transfer agent for its services are allocated among the classes of shares based on the number of accounts in each class and the ratable allocation of related out-of-pocket expenses (see Note 4).
Distributions to shareowners are recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions paid by the Fund with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner and at the same time, except that net investment income dividends to Class A, Class C, Class K, Class R and Class Y shares can reflect different transfer agent and distribution expense rates.
Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 39
F. Risks
The value of securities held by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, recessions, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, inflation, changes in interest rates, lack of liquidity in the bond markets or adverse investor sentiment. In the past several years, financial markets have experienced increased volatility, depressed valuations, decreased liquidity and heightened uncertainty. These conditions may continue, recur, worsen or spread. A general rise in interest rates could adversely affect the price and liquidity of fixed-income securities and could also result in increased redemptions from the Fund.
At times, the Fund’s investments may represent industries or industry sectors that are interrelated or have common risks, making the Fund more susceptible to any economic, political, or regulatory developments or other risks affecting those industries and sectors. The Fund’s investments in foreign markets and countries with limited developing markets may subject the Fund to a greater degree of risk than investments in a developed market. These risks include disruptive political or economic conditions and the imposition of adverse governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions.
With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet to conduct business, the Fund is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. While the Fund’s Adviser has established business continuity plans in the event of, and risk management systems to prevent, limit or mitigate, such cyber-attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems, including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, the Fund cannot control the cybersecurity plans and systems put in place by service providers to the Fund such as Brown Brothers Harriman & Co., the Fund’s custodian and accounting agent, and DST Asset Manager Solutions, Inc., the Fund’s transfer agent. In addition, many beneficial owners of Fund shares hold them through accounts at broker-dealers, retirement platforms and other financial market participants over which neither the Fund nor the Adviser exercises control. Each of these may in turn rely on service providers to them, which are also subject to the risk of cyber-attacks. Cybersecurity failures or breaches at the Adviser or the Fund’s service providers or intermediaries have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with the Fund’s ability to calculate its net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of Fund
40 Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21
shareowners to effect share purchases, redemptions or exchanges or receive distributions, loss of or unauthorized access to private shareowner information and violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, or additional compliance costs. Such costs and losses may not be covered under any insurance. In addition, maintaining vigilance against cyber-attacks may involve substantial costs over time, and system enhancements may themselves be subject to cyber-attacks.
COVID-19
The respiratory illness COVID-19 caused by a novel coronavirus has resulted in a global pandemic and major disruption to economies and markets around the world, including the United States. Global financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and severe losses, and trading in many instruments has been disrupted. Liquidity for many instruments has been greatly reduced for periods of time. Some interest rates are very low and in some cases yields are negative. Some sectors of the economy and individual issuers have experienced particularly large losses. These circumstances may continue for an extended period of time, and may continue to affect adversely the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments. The ultimate economic fallout from the pandemic, and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries and individual issuers, are not known. Governments and central banks, including the Federal Reserve in the U.S., have taken extraordinary and unprecedented actions to support local and global economies and the financial markets. These actions have resulted in significant expansion of public debt, including in the U.S. The impact of these measures, and whether they will be effective to mitigate the economic and market disruption, will not be known for some time. The consequences of high public debt, including its future impact on the economy and securities markets, likewise may not be known for some time.

To the Board of Trustees of Pioneer Series Trust X and the Shareholders of Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Pioneer Series Trust X (the “Trust”)), including the schedule of investments, as of March 31, 2021, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the four years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). The financial highlights for the period ended March 31, 2017 were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated May 26, 2017, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund (one of the funds constituting Pioneer Series Trust X) at March 31, 2021, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the four years in the period then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund | Annual Report | 3/31/21 45
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 procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more Amundi Pioneer investment companies since 2017.

PIONEER FUNDS
APPROVAL OF AUDIT, AUDIT-RELATED, TAX AND OTHER SERVICES
PROVIDED BY THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR
SECTION I - POLICY PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY
The Pioneer Funds recognize the importance of maintaining the independence of their outside auditors. Maintaining independence is a shared responsibility involving Amundi Asset Management, Inc, the audit committee and the independent auditors.
The Funds recognize that a Fund’s independent auditors: 1) possess knowledge of the Funds, 2) are able to incorporate certain services into the scope of the audit, thereby avoiding redundant work, cost and disruption of Fund personnel and processes, and 3) have expertise that has value to the Funds. As a result, there are situations where it is desirable to use the Fund’s independent auditors for services in addition to the annual audit and where the potential for conflicts of interests are minimal. Consequently, this policy, which is intended to comply with Rule 210.2-01(C)(7), sets forth guidelines and procedures to be followed by the Funds when retaining the independent audit firm to perform audit, audit-related tax and other services under those circumstances, while also maintaining independence.
Approval of a service in accordance with this policy for a Fund shall also constitute approval for any other Fund whose pre-approval is required pursuant to Rule 210.2-01(c)(7)(ii).
In addition to the procedures set forth in this policy, any non-audit services that may be provided consistently with Rule 210.2-01 may be approved by the Audit Committee itself and any pre-approval that may be waived in accordance with Rule 210.2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) is hereby waived.
Selection of a Fund’s independent auditors and their compensation shall be determined by the Audit Committee and shall not be subject to this policy.
