Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited)
Dear Valued Shareholders,
Thank you for your interest in Innovator ETFs.
The six-month period ended April 30, 2022 was marked by a number of confounding challenges. Just when much of the world was beginning to move beyond many of the constraints imposed from the Covid pandemic, a war broke out in Europe and inflation climbed to its highest level in 40 years. Central banks began to tighten monetary policy even as disruptions to global supply chains persisted.
In recent years, prior to the 2022 bond market selloff, historically-low bond yields meant that one of the few remaining portfolio benefits from a bond allocation was as a diversifier against a downturn in stocks. In 2022, however, we believe the traditional bond allocation that investors have relied on for decades has not lived up to the task. In the face of these economic challenges, not only did the stock market fall 10%, but the bond market also suffered a 9.5% loss, its worst six-month return since March 1980.1
At Innovator, we have been focused for several years on the challenges posed by bonds and the potential solution that Defined Outcome ETFs™ can provide - and the industry has been listening. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Defined Outcome ETFs™ saw $3.3 billion in net flows, representing industry growth of 38%. Not surprisingly, ETFs with 15% and 30% buffers garnered the lion’s share of flows as investors sought out higher levels of risk management.
Among the 148 ETFs receiving Morningstar’s “Defined Outcome ETF” designation, Innovator remains the leader with a total of 79 ETFs and more than $6.2 billion in assets.
During this period, Innovator rounded out its industry-first suite of US Equity Accelerated ETFs®, which seek to offer 2x or 3x the upside of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) to a cap, with 1-to-1 exposure on the downside over the outcome period.
I’m also pleased to be able to report that Innovator’s Buffer ETFs™ have performed as they were designed to, mitigating equity market drawdown and volatility during this period. On average, our 36 US Equity Buffer ETFs™ exhibited just 43% participation in the downside of the SPY and only 48% of its volatility.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
Amidst these challenging market conditions, Innovator remains committed to providing products that enable investors to redefine the risk and reward of their market exposures. We intend to continue striving to earn your trust and look forward to working together to bring meaningful solutions to the ever-changing investment landscape.
On behalf of the team at Innovator, thank you for your confidence in us and in the products we offer. May the Lord grant all of us wisdom and peace in the months ahead.

Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
The funds only seek to provide their investment objective, which is not guaranteed, over the course of an entire outcome period. Investors who purchase shares after or sell shares before the end of an outcome period will experience very different outcomes than the funds seek to provide.
The Funds have characteristics unlike many other traditional investment products and may not be suitable for all investors. For more information regarding whether an investment in the Fund is right for you, please see Investor Suitability" in the prospectus.
The Funds are designed to provide point-to-point exposure to the price return of a reference asset via a basket of Flex Options. As a result, the ETFs are not expected to move directly in line with the reference asset during the interim period. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than standard options. In a less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Fund may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices.
Fund shareholders are subject to an upside return cap (Cap) that represents the maximum percentage return an investor can achieve from an investment in the funds' for the Outcome Period, before fees and expenses. If the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value to a level near to the Cap, an investor purchasing at that price has little or no ability to achieve gains but remains vulnerable to downside risks. Additionally, the Cap may rise or fall from one Outcome Period to the next. The Cap, and the Fund's position relative to it, should be considered before investing in the Fund. The Funds' website, www.innovatoretfs.com, provides important Fund information as well information relating to the potential outcomes of an investment in a Fund on a daily basis.
Buffer ETFs: The Funds only seek to provide shareholders that hold shares for the entire Outcome Period with their respective buffer level against reference asset losses during the Outcome Period. You will bear all reference asset losses exceeding the buffer. Depending upon market conditions at the time of purchase, a shareholder that purchases shares after the Outcome Period has begun may also lose their entire investment. For instance, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has decreased in value beyond the pre-determined buffer, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer. Similarly, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer until the Fund's value has decreased to its value at the commencement of the Outcome Period.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
Accelerated ETFs: If the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has experienced an accelerated return, an investor purchasing Shares at that price may be subject to losses that exceed any losses of the Underlying ETF for the remainder of the Outcome Period and may have diminished or no ability to experience further accelerated return, therefore exposing the investor to greater downside risks.
This material must be preceded by or accompanied with a prospectus. The Funds' investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses should be considered carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other important information, and it may be obtained at innovatoretfs.com. Read it carefully before investing.

Expense Example
For the Period Ended April 30, 2022 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) ongoing costs, including management fees, and other Fund expenses; and (2) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the respective period and held for the entire respective period to April 30, 2022 for each Fund.
Actual Expenses
The following table 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 you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the applicable line under the heading titled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Funds’ actual returns. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds with other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares with respect to the Funds. Therefore, the table below is useful in comparing the ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs could have been higher.

The Funds are exchange traded funds that offer one class of shares, do not charge a sales load, do not have a redemption fee and currently do not charge a 12b-1 fee to their shareholders. The Innovator International Developed and Emerging Markets ETFs list and principally trade their shares on NYSE Arca (“NYSE”). All other Innovator ETFs included in this report each, respectively, list and principally trade their shares on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (“Cboe BZX”).
Each Fund employs a specific “defined outcome strategy.” Defined outcome strategies generally seek to produce pre-determined investment outcomes based upon the performance of an index or one or more underlying securities. The Funds’ pre-determined outcomes (“Outcomes”) are based upon the price performance of a benchmark index or one or more underlying exchange-traded fund (the “Benchmark”) over a period of approximately one year or another predetermined period (“Outcome Period”). The Funds’ investment strategy provides shareholders with participation in any gains experienced by the applicable Benchmark over the course of the Outcome Period, subject to a cap on upside returns (a “Cap”), and, if applicable, a predetermined buffer (a “Buffer”) against Benchmark losses for the Outcome Period. These defined outcomes are managed by purchasing and selling call and put FLexible EXchange Options (“FLEX Options”) to create layers within a Fund’s portfolio. Each Fund’s FLEX Option has the same reference asset and expiration date, with uniquely selected strike prices for the Fund’s Outcome Period. Due to the customizable nature of FLEX Options that allows for specific strike prices to be selected for the same reference asset and expiration date, when each of the FLEX Options expire on the last day of the Outcome Period, the Funds are expected to achieve a Benchmark investment return with the applicable Buffer and Cap investment parameters.
The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Valuation:
The net asset values (“NAV”) of the Funds are determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. ET). If the NYSE closes early on a valuation day, the Funds shall determine NAV as of that time.
Portfolio securities generally shall be valued utilizing prices provided by independent pricing services. The Trust’s Pricing Committee (“Pricing Committee”) is responsible for establishing valuation of portfolio securities and other instruments held by the Funds in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
Common stocks, preferred stocks and other equity securities listed on any national or foreign exchange (excluding the NASDAQ National Market (“NASDAQ”) and the London Stock Exchange Alternative Investment Market (“AIM”)) are generally valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are principally traded or, for NASDAQ and AIM securities, the official closing price. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price or official closing price, as applicable, at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the mean of the bid and the asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. Redeemable securities issued by open-end investment companies shall be valued at the investment company’s applicable net asset value, with the exception of exchange-traded open-end investment companies which are priced as equity securities. Fixed income securities, swaps, currency-, credit- and commodity-linked notes, and other similar instruments will be valued using a pricing service. Fixed income securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less when purchased will be valued at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, provided the Pricing Committee has determined that the use of amortized cost is an appropriate reflection of fair value given market and issuer specific conditions existing at the time of the determination. Deposit accounts are valued at acquisition cost. Foreign securities and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as provided by the pricing service. All assets denominated in foreign currencies will be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the time of valuation. Restricted securities (with the exception of Rule 144A Securities for which market quotations are available) will normally be valued at fair value as determined by the Pricing Committee.
Exchange-traded option contracts (other than FLEX Option contracts) will be valued at the closing price in the market where such contracts are principally traded. If no closing price is available, they will be fair valued at the mean of their most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. OTC options are fair valued at the mean of the most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. FLEX Options will be valued at a model-based price provided by the exchange on which the option is traded at the official close of that exchange’s trading date. If the exchange on which the option is traded is unable to provide a model price, FLEX Options prices will be provided by backup provider Super Derivatives. Otherwise, the value of a FLEX Option will be determined by the Pricing Committee in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
If no quotation can be obtained from a pricing service, then the Pricing Committee will then attempt to obtain one or more broker quotes for the security. If no quotation is available from either a pricing service or one or more brokers or if the Pricing Committee has reason to question the reliability or accuracy of a quotation supplied or the use of amortized cost, the value of any portfolio security held by the Funds for which reliable market quotations are not readily available will be determined by the Pricing Committee in a manner that most appropriately reflects fair market value of the security on the valuation date. The use of a fair valuation method may be appropriate if, for example: (i) market quotations do not accurately reflect fair value of an investment; (ii) an investment’s value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the investment is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market); (iii) a trading halt closes an exchange or market early; or (iv) other events result in an exchange or market delaying its normal close.
Fair Valuation Measurement:
FASB established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three Levels of inputs of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
• | Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. | |
• | Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. | |
• | Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgement. Accordingly, the degree of judgement exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The following table summarizes valuation of the Funds’ investments under the fair value hierarchy levels as of April 30, 2022:

There were no Level 3 investments for the Funds during the period ended April 30, 2022.
Option Contracts:
In general, an option contract is an agreement between a buyer and seller that gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy or sell a particular asset at a specified future date at an agreed upon price (commonly known as the “strike price”).
The Funds invest primarily in FLEX Option contracts. FLEX Options are customized option contracts that trade on an exchange but provide investors with the ability to customize key contract terms like strike price, style and expiration date while achieving price discovery in competitive, transparent auctions markets and avoiding the counterparty exposure of over-the-counter options positions. Like traditional exchange-traded options, FLEX Options are guaranteed for settlement by the OCC, a market clearinghouse that guarantees performance by counterparties to certain derivatives contracts. The FLEX Options in which the Funds will invest are all European style options (options that are exercisable only on the expiration date). The FLEX Options are listed on the Chicago Board Options Exchange.
The Funds will purchase and sell call and put FLEX Options. In general, put options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to sell an asset (or deliver the cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) of the put has the obligation to buy the asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) at a certain defined price. Call options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to buy an asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) the obligation to sell the asset (or deliver cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) at a certain defined price.
When the Funds purchase an option, an amount equal to the premium paid by the Funds are recorded as an investment and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option purchased. If an option expires on the stipulated expiration date or if the Funds enter into a closing sale transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a call option is exercised, the cost of the security acquired is increased by the premium paid for the call. If a put option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale are decreased by the premium originally paid. Purchased options are non-income producing securities.
When the Funds write an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Funds are recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Funds on the expiration date as realized gain from written options. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Funds have realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Funds. The Funds, as writers of an option, bear the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
All of the FLEX Option contracts held by the Funds are fully funded and cash settled, therefore balance sheet offsetting under ASC 210 does not apply.
The Funds bear the risk that the OCC will be unable or unwilling to perform its obligations under the FLEX Options contracts. In the unlikely event that the OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its settlement obligations, the Funds could suffer significant losses. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than certain other securities such as standardized options. In less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Funds may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices. The Funds may experience substantial downside from specific FLEX Option positions and certain FLEX Option positions may expire worthless. The value of the underlying FLEX Options will be affected by, among others, changes in the value of the exchange, changes in interest rates, changes in the actual and implied volatility of the Index and the remaining time to until the FLEX Options expire. The value of the FLEX Options does not increase or decrease at the same rate as the level of the Index (although they generally move in the same direction). However, as a FLEX Option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the Index.

Use of Estimates:
In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications:
In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into a contract with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims against the Trust that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.
Tax Information:
The Funds are treated as separate entities for federal income tax purposes. The Funds intend to qualify as regulated investment companies (“RICs”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”). To qualify and remain eligible for the special tax treatment accorded to RICs, the Funds must meet certain annual income and quarterly asset diversification requirements and must distribute annually at least 90% of the sum of (i) its investment company taxable income (which includes dividends, interest and net short-term capital gains) and (ii) certain net tax-exempt income, if any. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent the Funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and capital gains to shareholders.
Management evaluates the Funds’ tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Tax benefits associated with an uncertain tax position can be recognized only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. Interest and penalties related to income taxes would be recorded as tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year or period ended April 30, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds’ federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. As of April 30, 2022, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. As of April 30, 2022, the Funds have no examinations in progress and management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. Federal tax authorities for all tax years since inception.
U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified between distributable earnings/(accumulated deficit) and additional paid-in capital. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year or period ended October 31, 2021, the Funds made the following permanent book-to-tax reclassifications due to deemed distributions, net operating losses, and redemption in-kind transactions:

5. | CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS |
There were an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest (without par value) authorized by the Trust. Individual shares of the Funds may only be purchased and sold at market prices on the Exchange through a broker-dealer. Such transactions may be subject to customary commission rates imposed by the broker-dealer, and market prices for the Funds’ shares may be at, above or below its NAV depending on the premium or discount at which the Funds’ shares trade.
The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in blocks of shares called “Creation Units.” Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally for cash. Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day in amounts less than a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Shares of the Funds may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. A transaction fee is applicable to each transaction regardless of the number of units purchased or sold in the transaction. Each Fund, subject to approval by the Board of Trustees, may adjust transaction fees from time to time based upon actual experience. Additional charges received by the Funds, if any, are disclosed as Transaction Fees on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.

7. | NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
In August 2021, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2021-06, which includes updates to Financial Services— Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rule Releases No. 33-10786, Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses (“ASU 2021-06”). Among other revisions, the ASU 2021-06 added to the Accounting Standard Codification the text of SEC Regulation S-X Rule 6-11, Financial Statements of Funds Acquired or to Be Acquired, which governs the financial reporting for fund acquisitions by investment companies and business development companies. The amendments are effective as of the beginning of the registrant’s fiscal year beginning after December 31, 2020 (the “mandatory compliance date”). Acquisitions and dispositions that are probable or consummated after the mandatory compliance date must be evaluated for significance using the final amendments. Management has evaluated ASU 2021-06 and has adopted the relevant provisions of the disclosure framework.
8. | COVID-19 |
The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Funds invest depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the value of the Funds’ investments.
9. | SUBSEQUENT EVENT |
Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events of the Funds through the date of the financial statements were issued, and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Board Considerations Regarding Approval of Investment Management Agreement (Unaudited)
BOARD CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING INNOVATOR FUNDS:
Innovator U.S. Equity Accelerated ETF – January
Innovator U.S. Equity Accelerated Plus ETF – January
Innovator U.S. Equity Accelerated 9 Buffer ETF – January
At a quarterly Board meeting held on December 16, 2020, the Trust’s Board considered approval of the Advisory Agreement with Innovator Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”), on behalf of the Innovator U.S. Equity Accelerated ETF - January, Innovator U.S. Equity Accelerated Plus ETF – January, and Innovator U.S. Equity Accelerated 9 Buffer ETF – January (the “Funds”), and the Sub-Advisory Agreement among the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, the Adviser and Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (“Milliman” or the “Sub- Adviser”), for an initial two-year term. The Board determined that the agreements were in the best interests of the Funds in light of the extent and quality of the services expected to be provided and such other matters as the Board considered to be relevant in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment.
To reach this determination, the Board considered its duties under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as well as under the general principles of state law in reviewing and approving advisory contracts; the requirements of the 1940 Act in such matters; the fiduciary duty of investment advisers with respect to advisory agreements and compensation; the standards used by courts in determining whether investment company boards have fulfilled their duties; and the factors to be considered by the Board in voting on such agreements. To assist the Board in its evaluation of the agreements, the Independent Trustees received a separate report from each of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser in advance of the Meeting responding to a request for information provided on behalf of the Independent Trustees that, among other things, outlined the services to be provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser to the Funds (including the relevant personnel responsible for these services and their experience); the proposed unitary fee rate payable by each Fund as compared to fees charged to peer groups of the Funds and as compared to fees charged to other clients of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, including other ETFs managed by the Adviser and the Sub- Adviser; the estimated expenses of the Funds as compared to expense ratios of the funds in the respective Fund’s peer group; the nature of the expenses to be incurred in providing services to the Funds and the potential for economies of scale, if any; financial data on the Adviser and the Sub- Adviser; any fall-out benefits accruing to the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser; and information on the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s compliance programs. The Independent Trustees also met separately with their Independent Counsel to discuss the information provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. The Board applied its business judgment to determine whether the arrangements between the Trust and the Adviser and among the Trust, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser are reasonable business arrangements from each Fund’s perspective as well as from the perspective of each Fund’s shareholders.
INNOVATOR ETFs TRUST
Board Considerations Regarding Approval of Investment Management Agreement (Unaudited) (Continued)
In evaluating whether to approve the agreements, the Board applied its business judgment and considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser and Milliman pursuant to the agreements. With respect to the investment management agreement, the Board considered that the Adviser will be responsible for the overall management and administration of the Funds and reviewed all of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Funds, including oversight of Milliman, as well as the background and experience of the persons responsible for such services. The Board noted that the Adviser will oversee Milliman’s day-to-day management of each of the Fund’s investments, including portfolio risk monitoring and performance review. In reviewing the services to be provided, the Board noted the compliance program that had been developed by the Adviser included an adequate program for monitoring the Adviser’s, Milliman’s and each Fund’s compliance with the 1940 Act, as well as each Fund’s compliance with its investment objective and policies. With respect to the sub-advisory agreement, the Board reviewed the materials provided by Milliman and noted the background and experience of Milliman’s portfolio management team and Milliman’s investment style. In light of the information presented and the considerations made, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Milliman under the agreements were expected to be satisfactory.
Since the Funds had yet to commence investment operations, the Board could not consider the historical investment performance of the Funds.
The Board considered the proposed unitary fee rate payable by each Fund under the investment management agreement for the services to be provided. The Board noted that, under the unitary fee arrangement, each Fund would pay the Adviser a unitary fee equal to an annual rate of 0.79% of its average daily net assets. The Board considered that, from the unitary fee for each of the Funds, the Adviser would pay Milliman an annual sub-advisory fee equal to 0.12% on each Fund’s assets under management.
The Board noted that the Adviser would be responsible for the Funds’ expenses, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services and license fees (if any), but excluding the fee payment under the investment management agreement, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses connected with the execution of portfolio transactions, and extraordinary expenses. The Board received and reviewed information for the Funds showing the advisory fee rates and expense ratios of the funds comprising of each Fund’s peer group, as well as advisory fee rates charged by the Adviser and Milliman to other funds (including ETFs) and non-fund clients, as applicable. In light of the information considered and the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be provided to the Funds under the agreements, the Board determined that the proposed unitary fee for each of the Funds, including the fee rate to be paid by the Adviser to Milliman from the unitary fee, was fair.
INNOVATOR ETFs TRUST
Board Considerations Regarding Approval of Investment Management Agreement (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Board noted that the proposed unitary fee for each of the Funds were structured to pass the benefits of any economies of scale on to shareholders as the respective Fund’s assets grow. The Board noted that any reduction in fixed costs associated with the management of the respective Fund would benefit the Adviser and Milliman, but that the unitary fee structure provides a level of certainty in expenses for each of the Funds. The Board noted that the Adviser is continuing to invest in personnel and infrastructure for the Innovator fund complex.
Because the Funds have not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Funds have not yet been determined, the Board noted that there was no historical profitability information with respect to the Funds to be reviewed. The Board noted that it would review profitability information in connection with subsequent renewals of the agreements.
The Board considered potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits anticipated to be received by the Adviser and Milliman. The Board concluded that the character and amount of potential fall-out benefits to the Adviser and Milliman were consistent with the types of benefits generally derived by investment managers and sub-advisers to funds.
Based on all of the information considered and the conclusions reached, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously determined that the terms of the agreements are fair and that the approval of the agreements is in the best interests of the Funds. No single factor was determinative in the Board’s analysis.

BOARD CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING INNOVATOR FUNDS:
Innovator Growth Accelerated Plus ETF - January

INNOVATOR ETFs TRUST
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited)
Dear Valued Shareholders,
Thank you for your interest in Innovator ETFs.
During the six months ended April 30, 2022, the different methodologies of the Innovator IBD 50 (FFTY) and IBD Breakout Opportunity (BOUT) ETFs resulted in meaningfully different results, despite both falling into the mid-cap growth category. As with most of the equity market, mid cap stocks were down during the period and FFTY and BOUT were no exception. FFTY’s overweight to technology and underweight of energy were drivers of its underperformance of the Morningstar US Mid Cap Broad Growth Index. Meanwhile, BOUT benefited from its overweight to the energy and materials sectors, helping it to outperform the Index.
The Innovator Loup Frontier Tech ETF (LOUP) remained consistent in its effort to invest in companies that influence the future of technology. After many months of increases, the prices of technology stocks began to come under pressure as interest rates began to rise at the end of 2021. During the period from October 31, 2021 through April 30, 2022, the yield on the 10-year Treasury bond nearly doubled, climbing from 1.56% to 2.94%1 and putting upward pressure on the financing costs of characteristically debt-reliant technology companies. The frontier of new technology inherently involves uncertainty and volatility, but it’s also often the place where the most innovative opportunities are uncovered.
The Innovator S&P Investment Grade Preferred ETF (EPRF) remains the only preferred ETF designed to hold solely investment grade preferred stock. Its monthly distribution, qualified dividend income (QDI2) profile, weighting methodology, and pursuit of exclusively investment-grade exposure all help to distinguish it from other income-focused ETFs. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, as rising interest rates put downward pressure on the prices of preferred stock, EPRF continued to make monthly distributions, notching its 69th consecutive monthly dividend in April 2022.
The Innovator Laddered Allocation Buffer ETF (BUFB) and Laddered Allocation Power Buffer ETF (BUFF) are part of Innovator’s suite of Managed Outcome ETFs™. They are designed to offer a tax-efficient3, laddered approach to owning the market with buffers and market upside, to a cap. Each fund holds a laddered portfolio of Buffer ETFs™ such that every calendar month, one Buffer ETF is concluding its one-year outcome period and resetting into another one-year outcome period. This process allows investors to participate in a diverse set of buffered outcomes, smoothing out their overall investment experience.
INNOVATOR ETFs TRUST
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Innovator Buffer Step-Up Strategy ETF and Power Buffer Step-Up Strategy ETF are also part of Innovator’s suite of Managed Outcome ETFs. These managed buffer ETFs provide investors an alternative to managing and evaluating a series of buffer ETFs on their own. As single-ticker strategies, these ETFs are opportunistic, seeking to provide the upside of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) while mitigating downside losses with built-in buffers, through the active use of FLEX Options. These funds launched on March 8, 2022 and we are excited to be able to provide investors additional ways to access the features and benefits of defined outcome investing.

Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
Investing involves risks. Principal loss is possible.
1. Source: Bloomberg LP, from 10/31/21 to 4/30/22
2. QDI, or qualified dividend income, is taxed at the same rate as are capital gains, while ordinary dividend income is taxed at standard federal income tax rates.
3. ETFs use creation units, which allow for the purchase and sale of assets in the fund collectively. Consequently, ETFs usually generate fewer capital gain distributions overall, which can make them somewhat more tax-efficient than mutual funds.
EPRF Risks
The fund invests in preferred securities which may be subject to many of the risks associated with debt securities, including interest rate risk. The fund invests in equity securities which may be subject to volatile price fluctuations. Because the fund is non-diversified and can invest a greater portion of its assets in securities of individual issuers than a diversified fund, changes in the market value of a single investment could cause greater fluctuations in share price.
BOUT and FFTY Risks
There is no guarantee the funds' strategies will be successful. Additionally, the Funds may invest in securities that have additional risks. Foreign companies can be more volatile, less liquid, and subject to the risk of currency fluctuations. This risk is greater for emerging markets. Small- and mid-cap companies can have limited liquidity and greater volatility than large-cap companies.
LOUP Risks
The value of stocks of information technology companies are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation, and are subject intense competition. The prices of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile and less liquid than the overall market. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability.
BUFB and BUFF Risks
The funds may have characteristics unlike many other traditional investment products and may not be suitable for all investors. For more information regarding whether an investment in the Fund is right for you, please see “Investor Suitability” in the prospectus.

The Laddered Allocation Power Buffer ETF™ (BUFF), in accordance with the Refinitiv Laddered Power Buffer Strategy Index, will be continuously invested in a laddered portfolio of the twelve Underlying ETFs.
There is no guarantee that the defined outcome strategy of an Underlying ETF in any given Outcome Period will be achieved.
The funds only seek to provide their investment objective, which is not guaranteed, over the course of an entire outcome period. Investors who purchase shares after or sell shares before the end of an outcome period will experience very different outcomes than the funds seek to provide.
The Funds have characteristics unlike many other traditional investment products and may not be suitable for all investors. For more information regarding whether an investment in the Fund is right for you, please see Investor Suitability" in the prospectus.
The Funds are designed to provide point-to-point exposure to the price return of a reference asset via a basket of Flex Options. As a result, the ETFs are not expected to move directly in line with the reference asset during the interim period. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than standard options. In a less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Fund may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices.
Fund shareholders are subject to an upside return cap (Cap) that represents the maximum percentage return an investor can achieve from an investment in the funds' for the Outcome Period, before fees and expenses. If the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value to a level near to the Cap, an investor purchasing at that price has little or no ability to achieve gains but remains vulnerable to downside risks. Additionally, the Cap may rise or fall from one Outcome Period to the next. The Cap, and the Fund's position relative to it, should be considered before investing in the Fund. The Funds' website, www.innovatoretfs.com, provides important Fund information as well information relating to the potential outcomes of an investment in a Fund on a daily basis.

Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
Buffer ETFs: The Funds only seek to provide shareholders that hold shares for the entire Outcome Period with their respective buffer level against reference asset losses during the Outcome Period. You will bear all reference asset losses exceeding the buffer. Depending upon market conditions at the time of purchase, a shareholder that purchases shares after the Outcome Period has begun may also lose their entire investment. For instance, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has decreased in value beyond the pre-determined buffer, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer. Similarly, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer until the Fund's value has decreased to its value at the commencement of the Outcome Period.
This material must be preceded by or accompanied with a prospectus. The Funds' investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses should be considered carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other important information, and it may be obtained at innovatoretfs.com. Read it carefully before investing.

Expense Example
For the Period Ended April 30, 2022 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) ongoing costs, including management fees, and other Fund expenses; and (2) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire respective period to April 30, 2022 for each Fund.
Actual Expenses
The first line under each Fund in the following table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the applicable line under the heading titled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line under each Fund in the following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Funds’ actual returns. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds with other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing the ongoing Fund costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs could have been higher.

The Funds are exchange traded funds that offer one class of shares, do not charge a sales load, do not have a redemption fee and currently do not charge a 12b–1 fee to their shareholders. FFTY, BOUT, LOUP, BSTP and PSTP list and principally trade their shares on NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE”), EPRF, BUFF and BUFB list and principally trade their shares on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (“Cboe BZX”).
BSTP and PSTP employ a “step-up strategy” in which the sub-adviser will seek to opportunistically manage the respective Fund’s investment exposure by periodically terminating its FLEX Options investments earlier than its one-year expiration date and immediately reset the respective Fund’s options portfolio for a new one-year period. The “step-up strategy” seeks to help a Fund’s shareholder offset the timing risks inherent in owning an options package for one year. BSTP and PSTP do not pursue a “defined outcome strategy” or seek to achieve the full one-year investment outcomes of the options portfolio held. Unlike other Innovator ETFs that utilize a defined outcome investment strategy, they do not seek to provide shareholders with a set buffer percentage and maximum upside potential over any specified time period.
The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Valuation:
The net asset values (“NAV”) of the Funds are determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. ET). If the NYSE closes early on a valuation day, the Funds shall determine NAV as of that time.
Portfolio securities generally shall be valued utilizing prices provided by independent pricing services. The Trust’s Pricing Committee (“Pricing Committee”) is responsible for establishing valuation of portfolio securities and other instruments held by the Funds in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
Common stocks, preferred stocks, exchange traded funds and other equity securities listed on any national or foreign exchange (excluding the NASDAQ National Market (“NASDAQ”) and the London Stock Exchange Alternative Investment Market (“AIM”)) are generally valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are principally traded or, for NASDAQ and AIM securities, the official closing price. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price or official closing price, as applicable, at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. Securities traded in the over–the–counter market are valued at the mean of the bid and the asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. Redeemable securities issued by open–end investment companies shall be valued at the investment company’s applicable net asset value, with the exception of exchange–traded open–end investment companies which are priced as equity securities. Units of Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC are not traded on an exchange and are valued at the investment company’s net asset value per share as provided by the underlying fund’s administrator. Fixed income securities, swaps, currency–, credit– and commodity–linked notes, and other similar instruments will be valued using a pricing service. Fixed income securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less when purchased will be valued at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, provided the Pricing Committee has determined that the use of amortized cost is an appropriate reflection of fair value given market and issuer specific conditions existing at the time of the determination. Deposit accounts are valued at acquisition cost. Foreign securities and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as provided by the pricing service. All assets denominated in foreign currencies will be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the time of valuation. Restricted securities (with the exception of Rule 144A Securities for which market quotations are available) will normally be valued at fair value as determined by the Pricing Committee.
Exchange-traded option contracts (other than FLEX Option contracts) will be valued at the closing price in the market where such contracts are principally traded. If no closing price is available, they will be fair valued at the mean of their most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. OTC options are fair valued at the mean of the most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. FLEX Options will be valued at a model-based price provided by the exchange on which the option is traded at the official close of that exchange’s trading date. If the exchange on which the option is traded is unable to provide a model price, FLEX Options prices will be provided by backup provider Super Derivatives. Otherwise, the value of a FLEX Option will be determined by the Pricing Committee in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
If no quotation can be obtained from a pricing service, then the Pricing Committee will then attempt to obtain one or more broker quotes for the security. If no quotation is available from either a pricing service or one or more brokers or if the Pricing Committee has reason to question the reliability or accuracy of a quotation supplied or the use of amortized cost, the value of any portfolio security held by the Funds for which reliable market quotations are not readily available will be determined by the Pricing Committee in a manner that most appropriately reflects fair market value of the security on the valuation date. The use of a fair valuation method may be appropriate if, for example: (i) market quotations do not accurately reflect fair value of an investment; (ii) an investment’s value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the investment is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market); (iii) a trading halt closes an exchange or market early; or (iv) other events result in an exchange or market delaying its normal close.
Fair Valuation Measurement:
FASB established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under ASC, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three Levels of inputs of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
• | Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. | |
• | Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. | |
• | Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgement. Accordingly, the degree of judgement exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The following table summarizes valuation of the Funds’ investments under the fair value hierarchy as of April 30, 2022:

Option Contracts:
In general, an option contract is an agreement between a buyer and seller that gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy or sell a particular asset at a specified future date at an agreed upon price (commonly known as the “strike price”).
BSTP and PSTP invest primarily in FLEX Option contracts. FLEX Options are customized option contracts that trade on an exchange but provide investors with the ability to customize key contract terms like strike price, style and expiration date while achieving price discovery in competitive, transparent auctions markets and avoiding the counterparty exposure of over-the-counter options positions. Like traditional exchange-traded options, FLEX Options are guaranteed for settlement by the OCC, a market clearinghouse that guarantees performance by counterparties to certain derivatives contracts. The FLEX Options in which the Funds will invest are all European style options (options that are exercisable only on the expiration date). The FLEX Options are listed on the Chicago Board Options Exchange.
BSTP and PSTP will purchase and sell call and put FLEX Options. In general, put options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to sell an asset (or deliver the cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) of the put has the obligation to buy the asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) at a certain defined price. Call options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to buy an asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) the obligation to sell the asset (or deliver cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) at a certain defined price.
When BSTP and PSTP purchase an option, an amount equal to the premium paid by the Funds are recorded as an investment and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option purchased. If an option expires on the stipulated expiration date or if the Funds enter into a closing sale transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a call option is exercised, the cost of the security acquired is increased by the premium paid for the call. If a put option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale are decreased by the premium originally paid. Purchased options are non-income producing securities.
When BSTP and PSTP write an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Funds are recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Funds on the expiration date as realized gain from written options. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Funds have realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Funds. BSTP and PSTP, as writers of an option, bear the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
All of the FLEX Option contracts held by BSTP and PSTP are fully funded and cash settled, therefore balance sheet offsetting under ASC 210 does not apply.
BSTP and PSTP bear the risk that the OCC will be unable or unwilling to perform its obligations under the FLEX Options contracts. In the unlikely event that the OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its settlement obligations, the Funds could suffer significant losses. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than certain other securities such as standardized options. In less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Funds may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices. The Funds may experience substantial downside from specific FLEX Option positions and certain FLEX Option positions may expire worthless. The value of the underlying FLEX Options will be affected by, among others, changes in the value of the exchange, changes in interest rates, changes in the actual and implied volatility of the Index and the remaining time to until the FLEX Options expire. The value of the FLEX Options does not increase or decrease at the same rate as the level of the Index (although they generally move in the same direction). However, as a FLEX Option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the Index.

Use of Estimates:
In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications:
In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into a contract with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims against the Trust that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.
Tax Information:
The Funds are treated as separate entities for federal income tax purposes. The Funds intend to qualify as regulated investment companies (“RICs”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”). To qualify and remain eligible for the special tax treatment accorded to RICs, the Funds must meet certain annual income and quarterly asset diversification requirements and must distribute annually at least 90% of the sum of (i) its investment company taxable income (which includes dividends, interest and net short–term capital gains) and (ii) certain net tax–exempt income, if any. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent the Funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and capital gains to shareholders.
Management evaluates the Funds’ tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Tax benefits associated with an uncertain tax position can be recognized only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. Interest and penalties related to income taxes would be recorded as tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period ended April 30, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds’ federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. As of April 30, 2022, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. As of April 30, 2022, the Funds have no examinations in progress and management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. Federal tax authorities for all tax years since 2017, as applicable.
U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified between distributable earnings/(accumulated deficit) and additional paid–in capital.
These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year ended October 31, 2021, the Funds made the following permanent book–to–tax reclassifications primarily related to net operating loss forfeiture and redemptions in kind:
Distributable Earnings/ | ||||||||
(Accumulated Deficit) | Paid-In Capital | |||||||
FFTY | $ | (61,378,388 | ) | $ | 61,378,388 | |||
BOUT | (6,138,225 | ) | 6,138,225 | |||||
LOUP | (15,371,429 | ) | 15,371,429 | |||||
EPRF | (1,097,399 | ) | 1,097,399 | |||||
BUFF | (1,284,288 | ) | 1,284,288 |
Distributions to Shareholders:
Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex–dividend date. FFTY, BOUT, LOUP, BUFF, BUFB, BSTP and PSTP intend to pay out dividends from their net investment income, if any, annually. EPRF intends to pay out dividends from its net investment income, if any, monthly. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually by the Funds. The Funds may periodically make reclassifications among certain of its capital accounts as a result of the recognition and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Distributions that exceed earnings and profits for tax purposes are reported as a return of capital.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income:
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Trust determines the gain or loss realized from investment transactions on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income, if any, is recognized on the ex–dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex–dividend dates. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective yield method.
Distributions received from investments in master limited partnerships (“MLPs”), closed–end funds, real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and royalty trusts are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains and return of capital. For financial statement purposes, estimates are used to characterize these distributions received as return of capital, capital gains or ordinary income. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP, closed–end fund, REIT or royalty trust and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised and reflected on the Form 1099 received by shareholders based on information received for the security after its tax reporting periods are concluded, as the actual character of these distributions is not known until after the fiscal year end. The distributions received from MLPs, REITs, closed–end funds, and royalty trust securities that have been classified as income and capital gains are included in dividend income and net realized gain/(loss) on investments, respectively, on the Statements of Operations. The distributions received that are classified as return of capital reduce the cost of investments on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Purchases and sales of investments and dividend and interest income are translated into U.S. dollars using the spot market rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such translations. The gain or loss resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates is included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments, as appropriate. Foreign securities and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin. Foreign securities are recorded in the financial statements after translation to U.S. dollars based on the applicable exchange rate at the end of the period. The Funds report certain foreign currency–related transactions as components of realized gains or losses for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.
3. | INVESTMENT ADVISOR AND OTHER AFFILIATES |
Innovator Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) acts as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to investment advisory agreements between the Trust and the Adviser with respect to the Funds (“Advisory Agreements”) and, pursuant to the Advisory Agreements, is responsible for the day–to–day management of the Funds.

Certain trustees and officers of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser. Excluding FFTY, Trustee compensation is paid for by the Adviser.
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement between the Trust and the Adviser with respect to BUFF and BUFB, the Adviser has agreed to waive unitary fees of 0.10% of average daily net assets of the respective Fund until June 30, 2024. The waiver may be terminated by action of the Trust’s board at any time upon 60 days written notice by the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, or by the adviser on or after June 30, 2024. The Adviser is not entitled to recoup any of the fees that it waived.
The Trust entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement on behalf of FFTY with the Adviser. Under the terms of the Expense Limitation Agreement with FFTY, the Adviser contractually agreed to waive their advisory fees and/or assume as their own expense, certain expenses otherwise payable by the Fund to the extent necessary to ensure that total annual fund operating expenses (excluding any Rule 12b–1 fees, taxes, interest, brokerage fees, acquired fund fees and expenses, expenses incurred in connection with any merger, reorganization or proxy solicitation, litigation, and other extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 0.80% of average daily net assets of FFTY until August 31, 2022. Pursuant to the terms of the Expense Limitation Agreement, Innovator is entitled to recoup any fees that it waived and/or Fund expenses that it paid for a period of three years following such fee waivers and/or expense payments. The Fund may only make such repayment to the Adviser if, after the recoupment payment has been taken into account, it does not cause the Fund’s expense ratio to exceed either the expense cap in place at the time the expenses were waived or the Fund’s current expense cap. For the period ended April 30, 2022, the Adviser waived $175,106 of their advisory fees for FFTY without recouping any of their previously waived fees. The table below indicates the amount of fees that the Adviser may recoup:

Net capital gains or losses resulting from in–kind redemptions are excluded for the Funds’ taxable gains and are not distributed to shareholders.
5. CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS
There were an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest (without par value) authorized by the Trust. Individual shares of the Funds may only be purchased and sold at market prices on the Exchange through a broker–dealer. Such transactions may be subject to customary commission rates imposed by the broker–dealer, and market prices for the Funds’ shares may be at, above or below its NAV depending on the premium or discount at which the Funds’ shares trade.
The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in blocks of shares, called “Creation Units.” Creation Units are issued and redeemed for cash or in–kind for securities included in a specified universe. Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day in amounts less than a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Shares of the Funds may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker–dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. A transaction fee is applicable to each transaction regardless of the number of units purchased or sold in the transaction. Each Fund, subject to approval by the Board of Trustees, may adjust transaction fees from time to time based upon actual experience. Additional charges received by the Funds, if any, are disclosed as Transaction Fees on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.
6. | SECURITIES LENDING |
The Funds, excluding BSTP and PSTP, may lend up to 331/3% of the value of the securities in their respective portfolios to brokers, dealers and financial institutions (but not individuals) under terms of participation in a securities lending program administered by the securities lending agent. The Trust has entered into a Securities Lending Agreement (“SLA”) with U.S. Bank, N.A., the Funds’ custodian (the “Agent”). Under the terms of the SLA, the Funds may lend securities to certain broker–dealers and banks in exchange for collateral in the amount of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned or at least 105% of the value of non–U.S. securities loaned, marked to market daily. The collateral can be received in the form of cash collateral and/or non–cash collateral. Non–cash collateral can include U.S. Government Securities and letters of credit. The cash collateral is invested in the Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC (“Mount Vernon”), as noted in the Funds’ Schedules of Investments. Mount Vernon seeks to maximize current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity; and to maintain a stable NAV of $1.00. Mount Vernon has an overnight and continuous maturity. The market value of the loaned securities is determined daily at the close of business of the Funds and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. The Funds continue to benefit from interest or dividends on the securities loaned and may also earn a return from the collateral. The Funds pay various fees in connection with the investment of cash collateral. The Funds pay the Agent fees based on the investment income received from securities lending activities. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the Funds could experience a delay in recovering their securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them. In the event of a borrower’s material default, the Agent shall take all actions the Agent deems appropriate to liquidate the collateral, purchase replacement securities at the Agents’ expense, or pay the Funds an amount equal to the market value of the loaned securities, subject to certain limitations.
As of April 30, 2022, the values of the securities on loan, cash collateral received, and fees and interest were as follows:
Value of Securities on Loan | Cash Collateral Received | Fees and Interest Earned | ||||||||||
FFTY | $ | 17,140,654 | $ | 46,996,751 | $ | 297,609 | ||||||
BOUT | 3,366,900 | 3,548,495 | 1,928 | |||||||||

BUFF | 689,434 | 720,700 | 25,665 | |||||||||
BUFB | - | - | - |
Due to the absence of a master netting agreement related to the applicable Funds’ participation in securities lending, no additional offsetting disclosures have been made on behalf of the Funds for the total borrowings listed above.

Indefinite Long-Term | - | - | 43,658 | 163,968 | - |
To the extent that these loss carryforwards are utilized, capital gains so offset will not be distributed to shareholders. During the current tax year ended October 31, 2021, BUFF utilized $31,705 of capital loss carryforwards available.
The tax character of the distributions paid by the Funds during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 and October 31, 2020 were as follows:

9. | NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
In August 2021, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2021-06, which includes updates to Financial Services— Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rule Releases No. 33-10786, Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses (“ASU 2021-06”). Among other revisions, the ASU 2021-06 added to the Accounting Standard Codification the text of SEC Regulation S-X Rule 6-11, Financial Statements of Funds Acquired or to Be Acquired, which governs the financial reporting for fund acquisitions by investment companies and business development companies. The amendments are effective as of the beginning of the registrant’s fiscal year beginning after December 31, 2020 (the “mandatory compliance date”). Acquisitions and dispositions that are probable or consummated after the mandatory compliance date must be evaluated for significance using the final amendments. Management has evaluated ASU 2021-06 and has adopted the relevant provisions of the disclosure framework.
10. | COVID-19 |
The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Funds invest depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the value of the Funds’ investments.
11. | SUBSEQUENT EVENT |
Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events of the Funds through the date of the financial statements were issued, and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Board Considerations Regarding Approval of Investment Management Agreement (Unaudited)
BOARD CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING INNOVATOR FUNDS:
Innovator Laddered Allocation Buffer ETF
At a quarterly Board meeting held on December 15, 2021, the Trust’s Board considered approval of the Advisory Agreement with Innovator Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”), on behalf of the Innovator Laddered Allocation Buffer ETF (the “Fund”), and the Sub-Advisory Agreement among the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, the Adviser and Penserra Capital Management LLC (“Penserra” or the “Sub-Adviser”), for an initial two-year term. The Board determined that the agreements were in the best interests of the Fund in light of the extent and quality of the services expected to be provided and such other matters as the Board considered to be relevant in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment.
To reach this determination, the Board considered its duties under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as well as under the general principles of state law in reviewing and approving advisory contracts; the requirements of the 1940 Act in such matters; the fiduciary duty of investment advisers with respect to advisory agreements and compensation; the standards used by courts in determining whether investment company boards have fulfilled their duties; and the factors to be considered by the Board in voting on such agreements. To assist the Board in its evaluation of the agreements, the Independent Trustees received a separate report from each of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser in advance of the Meeting responding to a request for information provided on behalf of the Independent Trustees that, among other things, outlined the services to be provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser to the Fund (including the relevant personnel responsible for these services and their experience); the proposed unitary fee rate payable by the Fund as compared to fees charged to peer groups of the Fund and as compared to fees charged to other clients of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, including other ETFs managed by the Adviser and the Sub- Adviser; the estimated expenses of the Fund as compared to expense ratios of the funds in the respective Fund’s peer group; the nature of the expenses to be incurred in providing services to the Fund and the potential for economies of scale, if any; financial data on the Adviser and the Sub- Adviser; any fall-out benefits accruing to the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser; and information on the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s compliance programs. The Independent Trustees also met separately with their Independent Counsel to discuss the information provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. The Board applied its business judgment to determine whether the arrangements between the Trust and the Adviser and among the Trust, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser are reasonable business arrangements from the Fund’s perspective as well as from the perspective of the Fund’s shareholders.
In evaluating whether to approve the agreements, the Board applied its business judgment and considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser and Penserra pursuant to the agreements. With respect to the investment management agreement, the Board considered that the Adviser will be responsible for the overall management and administration of the Fund and reviewed all of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Fund, including oversight of Penserra, as well as the background and experience of the persons responsible for such services. The Board noted that the Adviser will oversee Penserra’s day-to-day management of the Fund’s investments, including portfolio risk monitoring and performance review. In reviewing the services to be provided, the Board noted the compliance program that had been developed by the Adviser included an adequate program for monitoring the Adviser’s, Penserra’s and the Fund’s compliance with the 1940 Act, as well as the Fund’s compliance with its investment objective and policies. With respect to the sub-advisory agreement, the Board reviewed the materials provided by Penserra and noted the background and experience of Penserra’s portfolio management team and Penserra’s investment style. In light of the information presented and the considerations made, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Fund by the Adviser and Penserra under the agreements were expected to be satisfactory.
Since the Fund had yet to commence investment operations, the Board could not consider the historical investment performance of the Fund.
The Board considered the proposed unitary fee rate payable by the Fund under the investment management agreement for the services to be provided. The Board noted that, under the unitary fee arrangement, the Fund would pay the Adviser a unitary fee equal to an annual rate of 0.20% of its average daily net assets. The Board considered that, from the unitary fee for the Fund, the Adviser agreed to waive unitary fees of 0.10% of average daily net assets of the Fund until June 30, 2024.
The Board noted that the Adviser would be responsible for the Fund’s expenses, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services and license fees (if any), but excluding the fee payment under the investment management agreement, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses connected with the execution of portfolio transactions, and extraordinary expenses. The Board received and reviewed information for the Fund showing the advisory fee rates and expense ratios of the funds comprising of the Fund’s peer group, as well as advisory fee rates charged by the Adviser and Penserra to other funds (including ETFs) and non-fund clients, as applicable.
In light of the information considered and the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be provided to the Fund under the agreements, the Board determined that the proposed unitary fee for the Fund, including the fee rate to be paid by the Adviser to Penserra from the unitary fee, was fair.
The Board noted that the proposed unitary fee for the Fund was structured to pass the benefits of any economies of scale on to shareholders as the Fund’s assets grow. The Board noted that any reduction in fixed costs associated with the management of the Fund would benefit the Adviser and Penserra, but that the unitary fee structure provides a level of certainty in expenses for the Fund. The Board noted that the Adviser is continuing to invest in personnel and infrastructure for the Innovator fund complex.
Because the Fund has not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Fund has not yet been determined, the Board noted that there was no historical profitability information with respect to the Fund to be reviewed. The Board noted that it would review profitability information in connection with subsequent renewals of the agreements.
The Board considered potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits anticipated to be received by the Adviser and Penserra. The Board concluded that the character and amount of potential fall-out benefits to the Adviser and Penserra were consistent with the types of benefits generally derived by investment managers and sub-advisers to funds.
Based on all of the information considered and the conclusions reached, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously determined that the terms of the agreements are fair and that the approval of the agreements is in the best interests of the Fund. No single factor was determinative in the Board’s analysis.
BOARD CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING INNOVATOR FUNDS:
Innovator Step-Up U.S. Equity Buffer ETF
Innovator Step-Up U.S. Equity Power Buffer ETF
At a quarterly Board meeting held on December 15, 2021, the Trust’s Board considered approval of the Advisory Agreement with Innovator Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”), on behalf of the Innovator Step-Up U.S. Equity Buffer ETF, and Innovator Step-Up U.S. Equity Power Buffer ETF (the “Funds”), and the Sub-Advisory Agreement among the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, the Adviser and Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (“Milliman” or the “Sub- Adviser”), for an initial two-year term. The Board determined that the agreements were in the best interests of the Funds in light of the extent and quality of the services expected to be provided and such other matters as the Board considered to be relevant in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment.
To reach this determination, the Board considered its duties under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as well as under the general principles of state law in reviewing and approving advisory contracts; the requirements of the 1940 Act in such matters; the fiduciary duty of investment advisers with respect to advisory agreements and compensation; the standards used by courts in determining whether investment company boards have fulfilled their duties; and the factors to be considered by the Board in voting on such agreements. To assist the Board in its evaluation of the agreements, the Independent Trustees received a separate report from each of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser in advance of the Meeting responding to a request for information provided on behalf of the Independent Trustees that, among other things, outlined the services to be provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser to the Funds (including the relevant personnel responsible for these services and their experience); the proposed unitary fee rate payable by each Fund as compared to fees charged to peer groups of the Funds and as compared to fees charged to other clients of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, including other ETFs managed by the Adviser and the Sub- Adviser; the estimated expenses of the Funds as compared to expense ratios of the funds in the respective Fund’s peer group; the nature of the expenses to be incurred in providing services to the Funds and the potential for economies of scale, if any; financial data on the Adviser and the Sub- Adviser; any fall-out benefits accruing to the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser; and information on the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s compliance programs. The Independent Trustees also met separately with their Independent Counsel to discuss the information provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. The Board applied its business judgment to determine whether the arrangements between the Trust and the Adviser and among the Trust, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser are reasonable business arrangements from each Fund’s perspective as well as from the perspective of each Fund’s shareholders.
In evaluating whether to approve the agreements, the Board applied its business judgment and considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser and Milliman pursuant to the agreements. With respect to the investment management agreement, the Board considered that the Adviser will be responsible for the overall management and administration of the Funds and reviewed all of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Funds, including oversight of Milliman, as well as the background and experience of the persons responsible for such services. The Board noted that the Adviser will oversee Milliman’s day-to-day management of each of the Fund’s investments, including portfolio risk monitoring and performance review. In reviewing the services to be provided, the Board noted the compliance program that had been developed by the Adviser included an adequate program for monitoring the Adviser’s, Milliman’s and each Fund’s compliance with the 1940 Act, as well as each Fund’s compliance with its investment objective and policies. With respect to the sub-advisory agreement, the Board reviewed the materials provided by Milliman and noted the background and experience of Milliman’s portfolio management team and Milliman’s investment style. In light of the information presented and the considerations made, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Milliman under the agreements were expected to be satisfactory.
Since the Funds had yet to commence investment operations, the Board could not consider the historical investment performance of the Funds.
The Board considered the proposed unitary fee rate payable by each Fund under the investment management agreement for the services to be provided. The Board noted that, under the unitary fee arrangement, each Fund would pay the Adviser a unitary fee equal to an annual rate of 0.79% of its average daily net assets. The Board considered that, from the unitary fee for each of the Funds, the Adviser would pay Milliman an annual sub-advisory fee equal to 0.12% on each Fund’s assets under management.
The Board noted that the Adviser would be responsible for the Funds’ expenses, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services and license fees (if any), but excluding the fee payment under the investment management agreement, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses connected with the execution of portfolio transactions, and extraordinary expenses. The Board received and reviewed information for the Funds showing the advisory fee rates and expense ratios of the funds comprising of each Fund’s peer group, as well as advisory fee rates charged by the Adviser and Milliman to other funds (including ETFs) and non-fund clients, as applicable. In light of the information considered and the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be provided to the Funds under the agreements, the Board determined that the proposed unitary fee for each of the Funds, including the fee rate to be paid by the Adviser to Milliman from the unitary fee, was fair.
The Board noted that the proposed unitary fee for each of the Funds were structured to pass the benefits of any economies of scale on to shareholders as the respective Fund’s assets grow. The Board noted that any reduction in fixed costs associated with the management of the respective Fund would benefit the Adviser and Milliman, but that the unitary fee structure provides a level of certainty in expenses for each of the Funds. The Board noted that the Adviser is continuing to invest in personnel and infrastructure for the Innovator fund complex.
Because the Funds have not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Funds have not yet been determined, the Board noted that there was no historical profitability information with respect to the Funds to be reviewed. The Board noted that it would review profitability information in connection with subsequent renewals of the agreements.

Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited)
Dear Valued Shareholders,
Thank you for your interest in Innovator ETFs.
The six-month period ended April 30, 2022 was marked by a number of confounding challenges. Just when much of the world was beginning to move beyond many of the constraints imposed from the Covid pandemic, a war broke out in Europe and inflation climbed to its highest level in 40 years. Central banks began to tighten monetary policy even as disruptions to global supply chains persisted.
In recent years, prior to the 2022 bond market selloff, historically-low bond yields meant that one of the few remaining portfolio benefits from a bond allocation was as a diversifier against a downturn in stocks. In 2022, however, we believe the traditional bond allocation that investors have relied on for decades has not lived up to the task. In the face of these economic challenges, not only did the stock market fall 10%, but the bond market also suffered a 9.5% loss, its worst six-month return since March 1980.1
At Innovator, we have been focused for several years on the challenges posed by bonds and the potential solution that Defined Outcome ETFs™ can provide - and the industry has been listening. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Defined Outcome ETFs™ saw $3.3 billion in net flows, representing industry growth of 38%. Not surprisingly, ETFs with 15% and 30% buffers garnered the lion’s share of flows as investors sought out higher levels of risk management.
Among the 148 ETFs receiving Morningstar’s “Defined Outcome ETF” designation, Innovator remains the leader with a total of 79 ETFs and more than $6.2 billion in assets.
During this period, Innovator rounded out its industry-first suite of US Equity Accelerated ETFs®, which seek to offer 2x or 3x the upside of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) to a cap, with 1-to-1 exposure on the downside over the outcome period.
I’m also pleased to be able to report that Innovator’s Buffer ETFs™ have performed as they were designed to, mitigating equity market drawdown and volatility during this period. On average, our 36 US Equity Buffer ETFs™ exhibited just 43% participation in the downside of the SPY and only 48% of its volatility.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
Amidst these challenging market conditions, Innovator remains committed to providing products that enable investors to redefine the risk and reward of their market exposures. We intend to continue striving to earn your trust and look forward to working together to bring meaningful solutions to the ever-changing investment landscape.
On behalf of the team at Innovator, thank you for your confidence in us and in the products we offer. May the Lord grant all of us wisdom and peace in the months ahead.
Bruce Bond
Chief Executive Officer

Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
The funds only seek to provide their investment objective, which is not guaranteed, over the course of an entire outcome period. Investors who purchase shares after or sell shares before the end of an outcome period will experience very different outcomes than the funds seek to provide.
The Funds have characteristics unlike many other traditional investment products and may not be suitable for all investors. For more information regarding whether an investment in the Fund is right for you, please see Investor Suitability" in the prospectus.
The Funds are designed to provide point-to-point exposure to the price return of a reference asset via a basket of Flex Options. As a result, the ETFs are not expected to move directly in line with the reference asset during the interim period. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than standard options. In a less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Fund may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices.
Fund shareholders are subject to an upside return cap (Cap) that represents the maximum percentage return an investor can achieve from an investment in the funds' for the Outcome Period, before fees and expenses. If the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value to a level near to the Cap, an investor purchasing at that price has little or no ability to achieve gains but remains vulnerable to downside risks. Additionally, the Cap may rise or fall from one Outcome Period to the next. The Cap, and the Fund's position relative to it, should be considered before investing in the Fund. The Funds' website, www.innovatoretfs.com, provides important Fund information as well information relating to the potential outcomes of an investment in a Fund on a daily basis.
Buffer ETFs: The Funds only seek to provide shareholders that hold shares for the entire Outcome Period with their respective buffer level against reference asset losses during the Outcome Period. You will bear all reference asset losses exceeding the buffer. Depending upon market conditions at the time of purchase, a shareholder that purchases shares after the Outcome Period has begun may also lose their entire investment. For instance, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has decreased in value beyond the pre-determined buffer, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer. Similarly, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer until the Fund's value has decreased to its value at the commencement of the Outcome Period.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
Accelerated ETFs: If the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has experienced an accelerated return, an investor purchasing Shares at that price may be subject to losses that exceed any losses of the Underlying ETF for the remainder of the Outcome Period and may have diminished or no ability to experience further accelerated return, therefore exposing the investor to greater downside risks.
This material must be preceded by or accompanied with a prospectus. The Funds' investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses should be considered carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other important information, and it may be obtained at innovatoretfs.com. Read it carefully before investing.

The line graph and performance table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Returns shown for the Fund and S&P 500® Index - Total Return include the reinvestment of all dividends, if any. Returns shown for the S&P 500® Index -Price Return do not include the reinvestment of dividends, if any.
The S&P 500® Index is an unmanaged, capitalization-weighted index generally representative of the U.S. market for large capitalization stocks.
The Fund’s portfolio holdings may differ significantly from the securities held in the relevant index and, unlike an exchange-traded fund, the performance of an unmanaged index does not reflect deductions for transaction costs, taxes, management fees or other expenses.
You cannot invest directly in an index.
Premium/Discount Information:
Information regarding the differences between the price of the Fund’s shares on the secondary market and the Fund’s net asset value is available at Innovatoretfs.com/UDEC.

Expense Example
For the Period Ended April 30, 2022 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) ongoing costs, including management fees, and other Fund expenses; and (2) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2021 to April 30, 2022 for each Fund.
Actual Expenses
The following table 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 you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the applicable line under the heading titled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Funds’ actual returns. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds with other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares with respect to the Funds. Therefore, the table below is useful in comparing the ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs could have been higher.

The Funds are exchange traded funds that offer one class of shares, do not charge a sales load, do not have a redemption fee and currently do not charge a 12b–1 fee to their shareholders. The Funds list and principally trade their shares on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (“Cboe BZX” or the “Exchange”).
INNOVATOR ETFs TRUST
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Each Fund employs a specific “defined outcome strategy.” Defined outcome strategies generally seek to produce pre-determined investment outcomes based upon the performance of an index or one or more underlying securities. The Funds’ pre-determined outcomes (“Outcomes”) are based upon the price performance of a benchmark index or one or more underlying exchange-traded fund (the “Benchmark”) over a period of approximately one year or another predetermined period (“Outcome Period”). The Funds’ investment strategy provides shareholders with participation in any gains experienced by the applicable Benchmark over the course of the Outcome Period, subject to a cap on upside returns (a “Cap”), and, if applicable, a predetermined buffer (a “Buffer”) against Benchmark losses for the Outcome Period. These defined outcomes are managed by purchasing and selling call and put FLexible EXchange Options (“FLEX Options”) to create layers within a Fund’s portfolio. Each Fund’s FLEX Option has the same reference asset and expiration date, with uniquely selected strike prices for the Fund’s Outcome Period. Due to the customizable nature of FLEX Options that allows for specific strike prices to be selected for the same reference asset and expiration date, when each of the FLEX Options expire on the last day of the Outcome Period, the Funds are expected to achieve a Benchmark investment return with the applicable Buffer and Cap investment parameters.
The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Valuation:
The net asset values (“NAV”) of the Funds are determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. ET). If the NYSE closes early on a valuation day, the Funds shall determine NAV as of that time.
Portfolio securities generally shall be valued utilizing prices provided by independent pricing services. The Trust’s Pricing Committee (“Pricing Committee”) is responsible for establishing valuation of portfolio securities and other instruments held by the Funds in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
Common stocks, preferred stocks and other equity securities listed on any national or foreign exchange (excluding the NASDAQ National Market (“NASDAQ”) and the London Stock Exchange Alternative Investment Market (“AIM”)) are generally valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are principally traded or, for NASDAQ and AIM securities, the official closing price. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price or official closing price, as applicable, at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. Securities traded in the over–the–counter market are valued at the mean of the bid and the asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. Redeemable securities issued by open–end investment companies shall be valued at the investment company’s applicable net asset value, with the exception of exchange–traded open–end investment companies which are priced as equity securities. Fixed income securities, swaps, currency–, credit– and commodity–linked notes, and other similar instruments will be valued using a pricing service. Fixed income securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less when purchased will be valued at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, provided the Pricing Committee has determined that the use of amortized cost is an appropriate reflection of fair value given market and issuer specific conditions existing at the time of the determination. Deposit accounts are valued at acquisition cost. Foreign securities and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as provided by the pricing service. All assets denominated in foreign currencies will be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the time of valuation. Restricted securities (with the exception of Rule 144A Securities for which market quotations are available) will normally be valued at fair value as determined by the Pricing Committee.
INNOVATOR ETFs TRUST
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Exchange–traded option contracts (other than FLexible EXchange Option or “FLEX Option” contracts) will be valued at the closing price in the market where such contracts are principally traded. If no closing price is available, they will be fair valued at the mean of their most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. OTC options are fair valued at the mean of the most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. FLEX Options will be valued at a model–based price provided by the exchange on which the option is traded at the official close of that exchange’s trading date. If the exchange on which the option is traded is unable to provide a model price, FLEX Options prices will be provided by backup provider Super Derivatives. Otherwise, the value of a FLEX Option will be determined by the Pricing Committee in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
If no quotation can be obtained from a pricing service, then the Pricing Committee will then attempt to obtain one or more broker quotes for the security. If no quotation is available from either a pricing service or one or more brokers or if the Pricing Committee has reason to question the reliability or accuracy of a quotation supplied or the use of amortized cost, the value of any portfolio security held by the Funds for which reliable market quotations are not readily available will be determined by the Pricing Committee in a manner that most appropriately reflects fair market value of the security on the valuation date. The use of a fair valuation method may be appropriate if, for example: (i) market quotations do not accurately reflect fair value of an investment; (ii) an investment’s value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the investment is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market); (iii) a trading halt closes an exchange or market early; or (iv) other events result in an exchange or market delaying its normal close.

Fair Valuation Measurement:
FASB established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under ASC Topic, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three Levels of inputs of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
● Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. |
● Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
● Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgement. Accordingly, the degree of judgement exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Option Contracts:
In general, an option contract is an agreement between a buyer and seller that gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy or sell a particular asset at a specified future date at an agreed upon price (commonly known as the “strike price”).
The Funds invest primarily in FLEX Option contracts. FLEX Options are customized option contracts that trade on an exchange but provide investors with the ability to customize key contract terms like strike price, style and expiration date while achieving price discovery in competitive, transparent auctions markets and avoiding the counterparty exposure of over–the–counter options positions. Like traditional exchange–traded options, FLEX Options are guaranteed for settlement by the OCC, a market clearinghouse that guarantees performance by counterparties to certain derivatives contracts. The FLEX Options in which the Funds will invest are all European style options (options that are exercisable only on the expiration date). The FLEX Options are listed on the Chicago Board Options Exchange.
The Funds will purchase and sell call and put FLEX Options. In general, put options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to sell an asset (or deliver the cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) of the put has the obligation to buy the asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) at a certain defined price. Call options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to buy an asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) the obligation to sell the asset (or deliver cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) at a certain defined price.
When the Funds purchase an option, an amount equal to the premium paid by the Funds are recorded as an investment and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option purchased. If an option expires on the stipulated expiration date or if the Funds enter into a closing sale transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a call option is exercised, the cost of the security acquired is increased by the premium paid for the call. If a put option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale are decreased by the premium originally paid. Purchased options are non-income producing securities.
When the Funds write an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Funds are recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Funds on the expiration date as realized gain from written options. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Funds have realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Funds. The Funds, as writers of an option, bear the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.

All of the FLEX Option contracts held by the Funds are fully funded and cash settled, therefore balance sheet offsetting under ASC 210 does not apply.
The Funds bear the risk that the OCC will be unable or unwilling to perform its obligations under the FLEX Options contracts. In the unlikely event that the OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its settlement obligations, the Funds could suffer significant losses. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than certain other securities such as standardized options. In less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Funds may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices. The Funds may experience substantial downside from specific FLEX Option positions and certain FLEX Option positions may expire worthless. The value of the underlying FLEX Options will be affected by, among others, changes in the value of the exchange, changes in interest rates, changes in the actual and implied volatility of the Index and the remaining time to until the FLEX Options expire. The value of the FLEX Options does not increase or decrease at the same rate as the level of the Index (although they generally move in the same direction). However, as a FLEX Option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the Index.

Use of Estimates:
In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications:
In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into a contract with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims against the Trust that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.
Tax Information:
The Funds are treated as separate entities for federal income tax purposes. The Funds intend to qualify as regulated investment companies (“RICs”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”). To qualify and remain eligible for the special tax treatment accorded to RICs, the Funds must meet certain annual income and quarterly asset diversification requirements and must distribute annually at least 90% of the sum of (i) its investment company taxable income (which includes dividends, interest and net short-term capital gains) and (ii) certain net tax-exempt income, if any. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent the Funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and capital gains to shareholders.
Management evaluates the Funds’ tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Tax benefits associated with an uncertain tax position can be recognized only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. Interest and penalties related to income taxes would be recorded as tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period ended April 30, 2022, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds’ federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. As of April 30, 2022, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. As of April 30, 2022, the Funds have no examinations in progress and management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. Federal tax authorities for all tax years since inception.

U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified between distributable earnings/(accumulated deficit) and additional paid-in capital. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year ended October 31, 2021, the Funds made the following permanent book-to-tax reclassifications due to deemed distributions and redemption in-kind transactions:

5. | CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS |
There were an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest (without par value) authorized by the Trust. Individual shares of the Funds may only be purchased and sold at market prices on the Exchange through a broker-dealer. Such transactions may be subject to customary commission rates imposed by the broker-dealer, and market prices for the Funds’ shares may be at, above or below its NAV depending on the premium or discount at which the Funds’ shares trade.
The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in blocks of 25,000 shares, called “Creation Units.” Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally for cash. Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day in amounts less than a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Shares of the Funds may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker–dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. A transaction fee is applicable to each transaction regardless of the number of units purchased or sold in the transaction. Each Fund, subject to approval by the Board of Trustees, may adjust transaction fees from time to time based upon actual experience. Variable fees received by the Funds, if any, are disclosed on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.

7. | NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
In August 2021, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2021-06, which includes updates to Financial Services— Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rule Releases No. 33-10786, Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses (“ASU 2021-06”). Among other revisions, the ASU 2021-06 added to the Accounting Standard Codification the text of SEC Regulation S-X Rule 6-11, Financial Statements of Funds Acquired or to Be Acquired, which governs the financial reporting for fund acquisitions by investment companies and business development companies. The amendments are effective as of the beginning of the registrant’s fiscal year beginning after December 31, 2020 (the “mandatory compliance date”). Acquisitions and dispositions that are probable or consummated after the mandatory compliance date must be evaluated for significance using the final amendments. Management has evaluated ASU 2021-06 and has adopted the relevant provisions of the disclosure framework.
8. | COVID-19 |
The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Funds invest depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the value of the Funds’ investments.
9. | SUBSEQUENT EVENT |
Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events of the Funds through the date of the financial statements were issued, and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
