PRESIDENT’S LETTER
April 3, 2018 (Unaudited)
Dear Shareholder,
The past year has been a milestone for JPMorgan’s Exchange-Traded Funds. We’ve expanded our product lineup to 22 ETFs, covering a comprehensive range of asset classes and investment factors. Each of these are designed to provide advisers and investors with additional tools for constructing stronger portfolios. During the year, we more than doubled our ETF assets under management, surpassing $3 billion in January. Further, the value of our suite of ETFs is continuing to be recognized by investors and the financial services industry. In fact, JPMorgan Global Bond Opportunities ETF (JPGB) recently earned Best New International/Global Fixed-Income ETF at the fifth annual ETF.com Awards held March 22, 2018 in New York, N.Y.1
| | |
 | | “During the past year, we have continued to build our suite of ETF products to include 22 ETFs, covering a comprehensive range of asset classes and investment factors.” |
The financial markets also had a strong year, generally providing investors with positive returns for the twelve months ended February 28, 2018, as the global economic expansion extended into its ninth year, supported by corporate profit growth, stable energy prices and low interest rates. While a sell-off in financial markets in early February punctuated a multi-month rally in global asset prices, markets recovered somewhat by the end of the reporting period.
Within this financial environment, we believe our innovative fixed income solutions can help you navigate changing markets. I’m pleased to report that JPGB, which seeks to deliver total return by providing exposure across more than 15 fixed income
sectors and 50 countries, generated a positive return for the period from JPGB’s inception on April 5, 2017 to February 28, 2018. For those clients looking to increase their income potential with high yields, JPMorgan Disciplined High Yield ETF (JPHY) also posted a positive return and had a 30 day SEC Yield of 5.24% (4.59% unsubsidized) for the twelve months ended February 28, 2018. One of our newest ETFs, JPMorgan Ultra-Short Income (JPST) also performed well and outperformed its benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. 3-Month Treasury Bill Index for the period from JPST’s inception on May 17, 2017 to February 28, 2018.
I’m also pleased to announce the launch of our first strategic beta fixed income ETF, JPMorgan USD Emerging Market Sovereign Bond ETF (JPMB). Launched January 29, 2018, JPMB seeks to provide emerging markets dollar bond exposure with more stable credit exposures through time.
We are proud to bring J.P. Morgan’s experience and equity capabilities to the ETF market place. We are committed to building solutions that address your needs and help you build stronger portfolios. Thank you for your belief in our Firm and our process.
Sincerely,

Joanna M. Gallegos

MARKET OVERVIEW
TWELVE MONTHS ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2018
Global bond markets produced slim to negative returns and underperformed global equities during the period, which were supported by rising corporate earnings, continued low interest rates and synchronized global economic growth. In early February 2018, a sharp sell-off pushed down prices for both fixed income and equity securities. Generally, investors blamed the sell-off on a surge in U.S. Treasury bond yields, which generally move in the opposite direction of bond prices, as well as uncertainty about U.S. Federal Reserve policy and historically high equity valuations.
While equity prices rebounded somewhat from the sell-off, bond prices overall were weighed down by expectations of accelerating inflation and rising interest rates as the global economic expansion continued into 2018. Within fixed-income markets, high-yield bonds (also known as “junk bonds”) continued to outperform investment grade corporate debt and U.S. Treasury bonds. U.S. dollar-denominated emerging markets debt, which had outperformed other fixed income sectors in the first half of 2017, overall delivered negative returns for the reporting period, while local currency-denominated emerging markets debt continued to deliver positive returns.

Duration as of 2/28/2018 | | | 4.53 Years | |
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE***
The JPMorgan Disciplined High Yield ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to provide a high level of income. Capital appreciation is a secondary objective.
INVESTMENT APPROACH
The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of high-yield securities (also called “junk bonds”). Issuers may be domestic or foreign, but the Fund only invests in U.S. dollar-denominated investments.
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
For the twelve months ended February 28, 2018, the Fund posted positive absolute performance, underperformed the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Index (the “Benchmark”) and outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.
During the reporting period, bonds rated CCC and lower significantly outperformed bonds rated BB and B as investors generally sought higher yields from lower quality debt. The Fund’s overweight position in bonds rated BB and its lack of holdings in CCC rated bonds detracted from performance relative to the Benchmark.
Bonds issued by publicly traded companies underperformed bonds issued by privately held companies during the reporting period. The Fund does not invest in bonds issued by privately held companies, which detracted from both absolute performance and performance relative to the Benchmark.
To maintain sufficient liquidity, the Fund did not invest in bond issues of less than $500 billion or in bond issuers with less than $1 billion in total bonds outstanding, which made a positive contribution to both absolute and relative performance.
HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?
The Fund’s managers believe that bonds rated CCC generally have materially higher volatility and default risk than bonds rates BB and B, while providing inadequate incremental return over a market cycle to justify the higher volatility. In addition,
the managers believe bonds issued by private companies have had a materially higher probability of default than similarly-rated bonds issued by public companies. As such, the Fund does not invest in bonds rated CCC or bonds issued by private companies. Relative to the Benchmark, the Fund was overweight in bonds rated BB and underweight in bonds rated B and CCC.

LIFE OF FUND PERFORMANCE (9/14/16 TO 2/28/18)

The performance quoted is past performance and is not a guarantee of future results. Exchange-traded funds are subject to certain market risks. Investment returns and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data shown. For up-to-date, month-end performance information please call 1-844-457-6383.
Fund commenced operations on September 14, 2016.
The graph illustrates comparative performance for $10,000 invested in shares of the JPMorgan Disciplined High Yield ETF, the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Index and the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index from September 14, 2016 to February 28, 2018. The performance of the Fund reflects the deduction of Fund expenses and assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if any. The performance of the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Index and the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Index does not reflect the deduction of expenses associated with an exchange-traded fund and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions of the securities included in the Index, if applicable. The BofA
Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Index is an unmanaged index, which measures the performance of U.S. dollar denominated below investment grade corporate debt publicly issued in the U.S. domestic market. The Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged index that represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.
Fund performance reflects the partial waiver of the Fund’s fees and reimbursement of expenses for certain periods since the inception date. Without these waivers and reimbursements, performance would have been lower. Also, performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on Fund distributions or redemption or sale of Fund shares.
The returns shown are based on net asset values calculated for shareholder transactions and may differ from the returns shown in the financial highlights, which reflect adjustments made to the net asset values in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Net Assets as of 2/28/2018 | | $ | 151,634,232 | |
Duration as of 2/28/2018 | | | 3.41 Years | |
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE***
The JPMorgan Global Bond Opportunities ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to provide total return.
INVESTMENT APPROACH
The Fund invests in bond and currency sectors across developed and emerging markets without benchmark constraints. The Fund is flexible and opportunistic and the Fund’s adviser has broad discretion to shift the Fund’s exposures to strategies, sectors, countries or currencies based on changing market conditions and its view of the best mix of investment opportunities.
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
For the period from Fund inception on April 5, 2017 to February 28, 2018, the Fund posted a return of 3.76%. The Fund is managed with an unconstrained orientation and is not managed relative to a benchmark index. While the Fund is not managed to a benchmark, its return is compared to the Bloomberg Barclays Multiverse Index, which returned 5.83% for the reporting period.
The Fund’s allocations to investment grade corporate credit and select foreign exchange positions detracted from absolute performance. The Fund’s allocations to high yield bonds and emerging markets debt were leading contributors to absolute performance. High yield bonds generally benefitted from investors’ appetite for yield growth. The Fund’s allocation to commercial mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities also contributed to absolute performance. The Fund’s short positions to U.S. government debt securities contributed to absolute performance as there was a sharp sell-off in U.S. Treasury bonds during the reporting period.
HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?
During the reporting period, the Fund invested opportunistically across different markets and sectors. The Fund’s managers applied a flexible investment approach and did not manage to a benchmark. This allowed the Fund to shift its allocations based on changing market conditions. The Fund had exposure to a broad range of asset classes during the reporting period, including high yield and investment grade corporate bonds, agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, emerging
markets debt, convertible bonds and foreign government securities. At the end of the reporting period, the Fund’s largest allocations were to U.S. high yield bonds and investment grade corporate bonds and its smallest allocations were to agency mortgage-backed securities and non-agency mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities.

Net Assets as of 2/28/2018 | | $ | 200,051,266 | |
Duration as of 2/28/2018 | | | 0.53 Years | |
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE***
The JPMorgan Ultra-Short Income ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to provide current income while seeking to maintain a low volatility of principal.
INVESTMENT APPROACH
The Fund primarily invests in investment-grade, U.S. dollar-denominated fixed, variable and floating-rate debt. The Fund seeks to maintain a duration of one year or less, although under certain market conditions, the Fund’s duration may be longer than one year. The Fund’s adviser has broad discretion to shift the Fund’s exposure to strategies and sectors based on changing market conditions and its view of the best mix of investment opportunities.
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
For the period from Fund inception on May 17, 2017 to February 28, 2018, the Fund posted positive absolute performance. While the Fund is not managed to a benchmark, its return is compared to the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. 3-Month Treasury Bill Index (the “Index”). While the Fund held no U.S. Treasury securities during the reporting period, the Index holds only U.S. Treasuries. The Fund outperformed the Index during the reporting period.
The Fund’s allocations to money market securities and investment grade corporate bonds were leading contributors to both absolute performance and performance relative to the Index during the reporting period. The Fund’s allocations to collateralized loan obligations, asset backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities also contributed to absolute and relative performance.
While the Fund’s overall longer duration relative to the Index was a modest detractor from relative performance, the enhanced yield from longer-dated securities contributed to absolute performance. Duration measures the price sensitivity of a portfolio of bonds to relative changes in interest rates. Generally, bonds with longer duration will experience a larger decrease in price as interest rates rise versus bonds with shorter duration.
HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?
During the reporting period, the Fund’s portfolio management team believed that interest rates would continue to move higher
at a measured pace and that corporate credit fundamentals remained favorable, despite some potential pressure from U.S. corporations repatriating offshore cash holdings. As such, the portfolio was positioned with an overall average duration of 0.50 years. In descending order, the Fund’s largest allocations were in corporate bonds, money market securities, collateralized loan obligations, asset-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities and non-corporate credit.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE***
The JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF (the “Fund”) seeks investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Risk-Aware Bond Index (the “Underlying Index”).
INVESTMENT APPROACH
The Fund is passively managed to the Underlying Index, which is comprised of liquid, U.S. dollar-denominated sovereign and quasi-sovereign fixed and floating rate debt securities from emerging markets. The Underlying Index utilizes a rules-based, proprietary methodology that filters for liquidity and country risk and allocates risk across credit ratings. The Underlying Index methodology includes monthly rebalancing. The Fund also employs optimization techniques to minimize tracking error to the Underlying Index
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
For the period from the Fund’s inception on January 29, 2018 to February 28, 2018, the Fund posted a return of -2.03% and its performance deviated from the Underlying Index by -0.03%.
The Fund’s and the Underlying Index’s exposures to Ethiopia and Peru were leading detractors from absolute performance.
Bonds issued by Ethiopia sold off amid a surge in inflation during the reporting period. Peruvian bonds weakened amid attempts by Peru’s Congress to oust President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski. The Fund’s and the Underlying Index’s allocations to Russia and Ghana were positive contributors to absolute performance. Russian sovereign bond prices rose amid low default risk due to Russia’s large foreign currency reserves. Ghana restructured the nation’s sovereign debt by introducing 15-year bonds, which helped support sovereign bond prices.
The Fund’s and the Underlying Index’s liquidity filter also detracted from absolute performance as less liquid bond issues outperformed other issues of emerging markets sovereign debt.
Because the Fund’s holdings were closely aligned with those of the Underlying Index, variances in relative performance due to security selection and/or sector allocation were not significant.
HOW WAS THE FUND POSITIONED?
The Fund invested at least 80% of its assets in securities included in the Underlying Index. During the reporting period, the Fund’s and Underlying Index’s largest allocations were in Turkey and Russia and their smallest allocations were in India and Morocco.

The graph illustrates comparative performance for $10,000 invested in shares of the JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF and the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Risk-Aware Bond Index from January 29, 2018 to February 28, 2018. The performance of the Fund reflects the deduction of Fund expenses and assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if any. The performance of the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Risk-Aware Bond Index does not reflect the deduction of expenses associated with an exchange-traded fund and has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions of the securities included in the Index, if applicable. The JPMorgan Emerging Markets Risk-Aware Bond Index (the “index”) is comprised of liquid, U.S. dollar-denominated sovereign and quasi-sovereign fixed and floating rate debt securities from emerging markets selected using a rules-based methodology and is owned by J.P. Morgan Investment Inc., the Fund’s adviser (the “Adviser”). The Index is maintained and calculated by J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“JPMS” or the “Index Provider”), which selects securities in accordance with the methodology from among the components of the J.P. Morgan Emerging Market Bond Index Global Diversified, which was developed and is maintained by the Index Provider. The Index Provider and the Adviser are both wholly-owned subsidiaries of JPMorgan Chase & Co., a publicly-held financial services holding company. The Index starts with the
J.P. Morgan Emerging Market Bond Index Global Diversified and applies a proprietary methodology that filters for liquidity and for country risk and allocates risk based on credit rating. Historically, the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global Diversified has included bonds issued by the countries of Angola, Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belize, Bolivia, Brazil, Cameroon, Chile, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cote D’Ivoire, Croatia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Gabon, Georgia, Ghana, Guatemala, Honduras, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Iraq, Jamaica, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Latvia, Lebanon, Lithuania, Malaysia, Mexico, Mongolia, Morocco, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Romania, Russian Federation, Senegal, Serbia, Slovakia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, Turkey, Ukraine, Uruguay, Venezuela, Vietnam, Zambia; however, this universe of countries may change in accordance with the Index Provider’s determination of eligible emerging market countries and there is no assurance that a particular country will be represented in the Underlying Index at any given time. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.
Fund performance reflects the partial waiver of the Fund’s fees and reimbursement of expenses for certain periods since the inception date. Without these waivers and reimbursements, performance would have been lower. Also, performance shown in this section does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on Fund distributions or redemption or sale of Fund shares.
The returns shown are based on net asset values calculated for shareholder transactions and may differ from the returns shown in the financial highlights, which reflect adjustments made to the net asset values in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 2018
1. Organization
J.P. Morgan Exchange-Traded Fund Trust (the “Trust”) was formed on February 25, 2010, and is governed by a Declaration of Trust as amended and restated February 19, 2014, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-ended management investment company.
The following are 4 separate funds of the Trust (collectively, the “Funds”) covered by this report:
| | |
| | Diversified/Non-Diversified |
JPMorgan Disciplined High Yield ETF | | Diversified |
JPMorgan Global Bond Opportunities ETF | | Diversified |
JPMorgan Ultra-Short Income ETF | | Diversified |
JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF | | Diversified |
JPMorgan Disciplined High Yield ETF (the “Disciplined High Yield ETF”) commenced operations on September 14, 2016. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide a high level of income with capital appreciation as a secondary objective.
JPMorgan Global Bond Opportunities ETF (the “Global Bond Opportunities ETF”) commenced operations on April 5, 2017. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide total return.
JPMorgan Ultra-Short Income ETF (the “Ultra-Short Income ETF”) commenced operations on May 17, 2017. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide current income while seeking to maintain a low volatility of principal.
JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF (the “USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF”) commenced operations on January 29, 2018. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Risk-Aware Bond Index.
J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. (“JPMIM”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (“JPMorgan”), acts as Adviser (the “Adviser”) and Administrator (the “Administrator”) to the Funds.
Shares of Disciplined High Yield ETF, Global Bond Opportunities ETF and Ultra-Short Income ETF are listed and traded on the Cboe (formerly BATS) BZX Exchange, Inc. Shares of USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF are listed and traded on the NYSE Arca, Inc. Market prices for the Funds’ shares may be different from their net asset value (“NAV”). Effective October 1, 2017, JPMorgan Distribution Services, Inc. (the “Distributor” or “JPMDS”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of JPMorgan, serves as the Funds’ distributor. Prior to October 1, 2017, SEI Investments Distribution Co. (“SIDCO”) was the distributor of the Funds. The agreement with JPMDS is substantially similar to the agreement with SIDCO. The Funds issue and redeem their shares on a continuous basis, through the Distributor, at NAV in large blocks of shares, typically 100,000 shares for all funds, except for the Ultra-Short Income ETF which trades in blocks of 50,000 shares, referred to as “Creation Units.” The Funds may elect creations and redemptions in cash or partially in cash. Shares are generally traded in the secondary market in amounts less than a Creation Unit at market prices that change throughout the day. Only individuals or institutions that have entered into an authorized participant agreement with the Distributor may do business directly with the Funds (each, an “Authorized Participant”).
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The Funds are investment companies and, accordingly, follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 — Investment Companies, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. Valuation of Investments — The valuation of investments is in accordance with GAAP and the Funds’ valuation policies set forth by and under the supervision and responsibility of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), which established the following approach to valuation, as described more fully below: (i) investments for which market quotations are readily available shall be valued at such unadjusted quoted prices, and (ii) all other investments for which market quotations are not readily available shall be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Board.
The Administrator has established the J.P. Morgan Asset Management Americas Valuation Committee (“AVC”) to assist the Board with the oversight and monitoring of the valuation of the Funds’ investments. The Administrator implements the valuation policies of the Funds’ investments, as directed by the Board. The AVC oversees and carries out the policies for the valuation of investments held in the Funds. This includes monitoring the appropriateness of fair values based on results of ongoing valuation oversight including, but not limited to, consideration of macro or security specific events, market events and pricing vendor and broker due diligence. The Administrator is responsible for discussing and assessing the potential impacts to the fair values on an ongoing basis, and at least on a quarterly basis with the AVC and the Board.
A market-based approach is primarily used to value the Funds’ investments. Investments for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued by approved affiliated and unaffiliated pricing vendors or third party broker-dealers (collectively referred to as “Pricing Services”) or may be internally fair valued using methods set forth by the valuation policies approved by the Board. This may include related or comparable assets or
| | | | | | |
| | | |
62 | | | | JPMORGAN EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS | | FEBRUARY 28, 2018 |
liabilities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values and other relevant information for the investment to determine the fair value of the investment. An income-based valuation approach may be used in which the anticipated future cash flows of the investment are discounted to calculate the fair value. Discounts may also be applied due to the nature or duration of any restrictions on the disposition of the investments. Valuations may be based upon current market prices of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity and industry. It is possible that the estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used, had a ready market for the investments existed, and such differences could be material.
Fixed income instruments are valued based on prices received from Pricing Services. The Pricing Services use multiple valuation techniques to determine the valuation of fixed income instruments. In instances where sufficient market activity exists, the Pricing Services may utilize a market-based approach through which trades or quotes from market makers are used to determine the valuation of these instruments. In instances where sufficient market activity may not exist, the Pricing Services also utilize proprietary valuation models which may consider market transactions in comparable securities and the various relationships between securities in determining fair value and/or market characteristics in order to estimate the relevant cash flows, which are then discounted to calculate the fair values.
Investments in open-end investment companies (the “Underlying Funds”) are valued at each Underlying Fund’s NAV per share as of the report date.
Futures are generally valued on the basis of available market quotations. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued utilizing market quotations from approved Pricing Services.
Valuations reflected in this report are as of the report date. As a result, changes in valuation due to market events and/or issuer related events after the report date and prior to issuance of the report are not reflected herein.
The various inputs that are used in determining the valuation of the Funds’ investments are summarized into the three broad levels listed below.
• | | Level 1 — Unadjusted inputs using quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. |
• | | Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for investments (such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) or other market corroborated inputs. |
• | | Level 3 — Significant inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Funds’ assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input, both individually and in the aggregate, that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those instruments.
The following tables represent each valuation input as presented on the Schedules of Portfolio Investments (“SOIs”):

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 2018 (continued)
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Fund’s investments are listed above. Generally, a change in the assumptions used in any input in isolation may be accompanied by a change in another input. Significant changes in any of the unobservable inputs may significantly impact the fair value measurement. The impact is based on the relationship between each unobservable input and the fair value measurement. Significant increases (decreases) in the default rate may decrease (increase) the fair value measurement. A significant change in the discount rate or prepayment rate (Constant Prepayment Rate or PSA Prepayment Model) may decrease or increase the fair value measurement.
B. Restricted Securities — Certain securities held by the Funds may be subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Restricted securities generally are resold in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense. Prompt sale at the current valuation may be difficult and could adversely affect the net asset value of the Funds.
As of February 28, 2018, the Funds had no investments in restricted securities other than securities sold to the Funds under Rule 144A and/or Regulation S under the Securities Act.
C. When-Issued Securities, Delayed Delivery Securities and Forward Commitments — Ultra-Short Income ETF purchased when-issued securities, including To Be Announced (“TBA”) securities, and entered into contracts to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price that may be settled a month or more after the trade date. When-issued securities are securities that have been authorized, but not issued in the market. A forward commitment involves entering into a contract to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future date that may be settled a month or more after the trade date. A delayed delivery security is agreed upon in advance between the buyer and the seller of the security and is generally delivered beyond seven days of the agreed upon date. The purchase of securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis involves the risk that the value of the security to be purchased declines before the settlement date. The sale of securities on a forward commitment basis involves the risk that the value of the securities sold may increase before the settlement date. The Fund may be exposed to credit risk if the counterparty fails to perform under the terms of the transaction. Interest income for securities purchased on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis is not accrued until the settlement date.
Ultra-Short Income ETF had delayed delivery securities outstanding as of February 28, 2018. The values of these securities held at February 28, 2018 are detailed on the SOIs.
D. Repurchase Agreements — The Funds may enter into repurchase agreement transactions that meet the credit guidelines of JPMIM. Repurchase agreements involve the purchase of securities subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The Funds require that the collateral received in a repurchase agreement transaction be transferred to a custodian in a manner sufficient to enable the Funds to obtain collateral in the event of a counterparty default. If the counterparty defaults and the fair value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. Repurchase agreement collateral may be held in segregated accounts maintained by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of JPMorgan.
The Funds’ repurchase agreements are not subject to master netting arrangements.
E. Derivatives — The Global Bond Opportunities ETF and Ultra-Short Income ETF used derivative instruments including futures and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, in connection with their respective investment strategies. Derivative instruments may be used as substitutes for securities in which the Funds can invest, to hedge portfolio investments or to generate income or gain to the Funds. Derivatives may also be used to manage duration, sector and yield curve exposures and credit and spread volatility.
The Funds may be subject to various risks from the use of derivatives including the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index; counterparty credit risk related to derivatives counterparties’ failure to perform under contract terms; liquidity risk related to the lack of a liquid market for these contracts not allowing such Funds to close out their position(s); and documentation risk relating to disagreement over contract terms. Investing in certain derivatives also results in a form of leverage and as such, the Funds’ risk of loss associated with these instruments may exceed its value, as recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
The Funds are party to various derivative contracts governed by International Swaps and Derivatives Association master agreements (“ISDA agreements”). The Funds’ ISDA agreements, which are separately negotiated with each dealer counterparty, may contain provisions allowing, absent other considerations, a counterparty to exercise rights, to the extent not otherwise waived, against the Funds in the event the Funds’ net assets decline over time by a pre-determined percentage or fall below a pre-determined floor. The ISDA agreements may also contain provisions allowing, absent other conditions, the Funds to exercise rights, to the extent not otherwise waived, against a counterparty (e.g., decline in a counterparty’s credit rating below a specified level). Such rights for both a counterparty and the Funds often include the ability to terminate (i.e., close out) open contracts at prices which may favor a counterparty, which could have an adverse effect on the Funds. The ISDA agreements give the Funds and a counterparty the right, upon an event of default, to close out all transactions traded under such agreements and to net amounts owed or due across all transactions and offset such net payable or receivable with collateral posted to a segregated account by one party to the other.
Counterparty credit risk may be mitigated to the extent a counterparty posts collateral for mark to market gains to the Funds.
Notes (1) — (2) below describe the various derivatives used by the Funds.
| | | | | | |
| | | |
66 | | | | JPMORGAN EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS | | FEBRUARY 28, 2018 |
(1). Futures Contracts — The Global Bond Opportunities ETF and Ultra-Short Income ETF used interest rate and treasury futures contracts to manage and hedge interest rate risk associated with portfolio investments and to gain or reduce exposure to positive and negative price fluctuation. The Funds also used futures contracts to lengthen or shorten the duration of the overall investment portfolio.
Futures contracts provide for the delayed delivery of the underlying instrument at a fixed price or are settled for a cash amount based on the change in the value of the underlying instrument at a specific date in the future. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to deposit with the broker, cash or securities in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount, which is referred to as the initial margin deposit. Subsequent payments, referred to as variation margin, are made or received by the Funds periodically and are based on changes in the market value of open futures contracts. Changes in the market value of open futures contracts are recorded as change in net unrealized appreciation/depreciation on the Statements of Operations. Realized gains or losses, representing the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed, are reported on the Statements of Operations at the closing or expiration of the futures contract. Securities deposited as initial margin are designated on the SOIs and cash deposited is recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. A receivable from and/or a payable to brokers for the daily variation margin is also recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
The use of futures contracts exposes the Funds to interest rate risk. The Funds may be subject to the risk that the change in the value of the futures contract may not correlate perfectly with the underlying instrument. Use of long futures contracts subjects the Funds to risk of loss in excess of the amounts shown on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, up to the notional amount of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects the Funds to unlimited risk of loss. The Funds may enter into futures contracts only on exchanges or boards of trade. The exchange or board of trade acts as the counterparty to each futures transaction; therefore, the Funds’ credit risk is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade. Under some circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily limits on the amount that the price of a futures contract can vary from the previous day’s settlement price, which could effectively prevent liquidation of positions.
The Funds’ futures contracts are not subject to master netting arrangements (the right to close out all transactions traded with a counterparty and net amounts owed or due across transactions).
(2). Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts — The Global Bond Opportunities ETF may be exposed to foreign currency risks associated with some or all of the portfolio investments and used forward foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge or manage certain of these exposures as part of an investment strategy. The Fund also bought forward foreign currency exchange contracts to gain exposure to currencies. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts represent obligations to purchase or sell foreign currency on a specified future date at a price fixed at the time the contracts are entered into. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.
The value of the forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted daily based on the applicable exchange rate of the underlying currency. Changes in the value of these contracts are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract settlement date. When the forward foreign currency exchange contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time the contract was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The Fund also records a realized gain or loss when a forward foreign currency exchange contract offsets another forward foreign currency exchange contract with the same counterparty upon settlement.
The Fund’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are subject to master netting arrangements (the right to close out all transactions with a counterparty and net amounts or due across transactions).
The Fund may be required to post or receive collateral for non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts.

The Funds’ derivatives contracts held at February 28, 2018 are not accounted for as hedging instruments under GAAP.
F. Foreign Currency Translation — The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates of such currencies against the U.S. dollar. The market value of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as of the valuation date. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
The Funds do not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from changes in market prices on securities held. Accordingly, such changes are included within Change in net unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments on the Statements of Operations.
Reported realized foreign currency gains and losses arise from the disposition of foreign currency, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and withholding taxes recorded on each Fund’s books on the transaction date and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. These reported realized foreign currency gains and losses are included in Net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions on the Statements of Operations. Unrealized foreign currency gains and losses arise from changes (due to changes in exchange rates) in the value of foreign currency and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, which are held at year end and are included in Change in net unrealized appreciation/depreciation on foreign currency translations on the Statements of Operations.
G. Offering and Organizational Costs — Total offering costs incurred in connection with the offering of shares of the Funds are amortized on a straight line basis over 12 months from the dates the Funds commenced operations. Costs paid in connection with the organization of the Trust, if any, were recorded as an expense at the time it commenced operations. Approximate total offering costs incurred by the Funds since inception were as follows:
| | | | |
JPMorgan Disciplined High Yield ETF | | $ | 40,373 | |
JPMorgan Global Bond Opportunities ETF (a) | | | 83,078 | |
JPMorgan Ultra-Short Income ETF (b) | | | 27,538 | |
JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF (c) | | | 17,892 | |
(a) | Commencement of operations was April 5, 2017. |
(b) | Commencement of operations was May 17, 2017. |
(c) | Commencement of operations was January 29, 2018. |
H. Security Transactions and Investment Income — Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (the date the order to buy or sell is executed). Securities gains and losses are calculated on a specifically identified cost basis. Interest income is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued using the effective interest method which adjusts for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income net of foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend date or when a fund first learns of the dividend.
I. Allocation of Expenses — Expenses directly attributable to the Funds are charged directly to the Funds, while the expenses attributable to more than one fund of the Trust are allocated among the respective funds.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 2018 (continued)
J. Federal Income Taxes — Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity for Federal income tax purposes. Each Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders all of its distributable net investment income and net realized capital gains on investments. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income tax is necessary. Management has reviewed the Funds’ tax positions for all open tax years and has determined that as of February 28, 2018, no liability for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements for net unrecognized tax benefits. However, management’s conclusions may be subject to future review based on changes in, or the interpretation of, the accounting standards or tax laws and regulations. Each of the Funds’ Federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years, or since inception if shorter, remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
K. Foreign Taxes — The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency purchases/repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Funds will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon their current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which they invest.
Certain Funds are subject to a tax imposed on short-term capital gains on securities of issuers domiciled in Indonesia. The Funds record an estimated deferred tax liability for these securities that have been held for less than one year at the end of the reporting period, assuming those positions were disposed of at the end of the period. This amount, if any, is reported as Deferred foreign capital gains tax in the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Short-term realized capital losses on the sale of securities of issuers domiciled in Indonesia can be carried forward for eight years to offset potential future short-term realized capital gains.
L. Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are generally declared and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed by the Funds at least annually. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. To the extent these “book/tax” differences are permanent in nature (i.e., that they result from other than timing of recognition — “temporary differences”), such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their Federal tax-basis treatment.
The following amounts were reclassified within the capital accounts:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Paid-in-Capital | | | Accumulated Undistributed (Distributions in Excess of) Net Investment Income | | | Accumulated Net Realized Gains (Losses) | |
Disciplined High Yield ETF | | $ | — | | | $ | 5,547 | | | $ | (5,547 | ) |
Global Bond Opportunities ETF | | | — | | | | (2,762,604 | ) | | | 2,762,604 | |
Ultra-Short Income ETF | | | 1 | | | | — | | | | (1 | ) |
USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF | | | — | | | | — | | | | — | |
The reclassifications for the Funds relate primarily to foreign currency gains or losses and investments in perpetual bonds.
3. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
A. Investment Advisory Fee — Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser supervises the investments of each Fund and is paid a fee. The fee is accrued daily and paid monthly based on each Fund’s respective average daily net assets. The annual rate for each Fund is as follows:
| | | | |
Disciplined High Yield ETF | | | 0.30 | % |
Global Bond Opportunities ETF | | | 0.55 | % |
Ultra-Short Income ETF | | | 0.15 | % |

In consideration of these services, the Administrator receives a fee accrued daily and paid monthly at an effective annual rate of 0.085% of the average daily net assets of each Fund in the Trust covered by the Administration Agreement.
The Administrator waived administration fees as outlined in Note 3.E.
Effective October 1, 2017 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of JPMorgan, serves as the Funds’ sub-administrator (the “Sub-administrator”). For its services as Sub-administrator, JPMCB receives a portion of the fees payable to the Administrator.
C. Custodian and Transfer Agent Fees — JPMCB provides portfolio custody and transfer agency services to the Funds. The amounts paid directly to JPMCB by the Funds for custody services are included in the Custodian and Transfer Agent fees on the Statements of Operations. With respect to the transfer agency services provided by JPMCB for each creation or redemption transaction, the Authorized Participant will generally be responsible for such associated expenses; during the period, the Funds paid no transfer agency fees to JPMCB.

Interest income earned on cash balances at the custodian, if any, is included in Interest income from affiliates on the Statements of Operations.
Interest expense paid to the custodian related to cash overdrafts, if any, is included in Interest expense to affiliates on the Statements of Operations.
D. Accounting Fees — Beginning on October 1, 2017, JPMCB began to also provide accounting services to the Funds. Prior to October 1, 2017 a non-affiliated entity provided accounting services to the Funds. The following are the amounts incurred by the Funds during the period October 1, 2017 through February 28, 2018 that are payable directly to JPMCB by the Funds for accounting fees which are included in accounting fees on the Statements of Operations:

Global Bond Opportunities ETF | | | 9,091 | |
Ultra-Short Income ETF | | | 8,902 | |

E. Waivers and Reimbursements — The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse the Funds to the extent that total annual operating expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend expenses related to short sales (if applicable), interest, taxes, expenses related to litigation and potential litigation, and extraordinary expenses) exceed the percentage of the Funds’ average daily net assets as shown in the below table:

Although the Trust does not, and did not, pay any fees under the Distribution Agreements, JPMIM pays JPMDS, and paid SIDCO, for certain distribution related services.
G. Other — Certain officers of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser. Such officers, with the exception of the Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Funds for serving in their respective roles.

5. Federal Income Tax Matters
For Federal income tax purposes, the estimated cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments held at February 28, 2018 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Aggregate Cost | | | Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | | Gross Unrealized Depreciation | | | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | |
Disciplined High Yield ETF | | $ | 105,763,923 | | | $ | 260,847 | | | $ | (2,422,788 | ) | | $ | (2,161,941 | ) |
Global Bond Opportunities ETF | | | 149,157,039 | | | | 3,522,821 | | | | (3,263,065 | ) | | | 259,756 | |
Ultra-Short Income ETF | | | 211,801,313 | | | | 47,613 | | | | (330,777 | ) | | | (283,164 | ) |
USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF | | | 56,752,975 | | | | 7,188 | | | | (1,334,002 | ) | | | (1,326,814 | ) |
The difference between book and tax basis appreciation (depreciation) on investments is primarily attributed to wash sale loss deferrals, mark to market of forward foreign currency contracts and mark to market of futures contracts.
The tax character of distributions paid during the period ended February 28, 2018 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Ordinary Income* | | | Total Distributions Paid | |
Disciplined High Yield ETF | | $ | 2,305,921 | | | $ | 2,305,921 | |
Global Bond Opportunities ETF | | | 3,275,400 | | | | 3,275,400 | |
Ultra-Short Income ETF | | | 975,348 | | | | 975,348 | |
USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF | | | 168,487 | | | | 168,487 | |
* | Short-term gain distributions are treated as ordinary income for income tax purposes. |
| | | | | | |
| | | |
72 | | | | JPMORGAN EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS | | FEBRUARY 28, 2018 |
The tax character of distributions paid during the period ended February 28, 2017 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Ordinary Income* | | | Total Distributions Paid | |
Disciplined High Yield ETF | | $ | 569,495 | | | $ | 569,495 | |
* | Short-term gain distributions are treated as ordinary income for income tax purposes. |
As of February 28, 2018, the estimated components of net assets (excluding paid-in-capital) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Current Distributable Ordinary Income | | | Current Distributable Long-Term Capital Gain | | | Tax Basis Capital Loss Carryover | | | Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | |
Disciplined High Yield ETF | | $ | 66,684 | | | $ | — | | | $ | (46,719 | ) | | $ | (2,161,941 | ) |
Global Bond Opportunities ETF | | | 224,508 | | | | 518,430 | | | | — | | | | (293,990 | ) |
Ultra-Short Income ETF | | | 68,484 | | | | 2,323 | | | | — | | | | (283,164 | ) |
USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF | | | 29,933 | | | | — | | | | (8,120 | ) | | | (1,326,814 | ) |

As of February 28, 2018, the Funds had net capital loss carryforwards with no expiration dates, as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Capital Loss Carryforward Character | |
| | Short-Term | | | Long-Term | |
Disciplined High Yield ETF | | $ | (24,473 | ) | | $ | (22,246 | ) |
Global Bond Opportunities ETF | | | — | | | | — | |
Ultra-Short Income ETF | | | — | | | | — | |
USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF | | | (8,120 | ) | | | — | |
Late year ordinary losses incurred after October 31 and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Funds’ next taxable year. For the year ended February 28, 2018, the Global Bond Opportunities ETF deferred to March 1, 2018 late year ordinary losses of $1,412,780.
6. Capital Share Transactions
The Trust issues and redeems shares of the Funds only in Creation Units through the Distributor at NAV. Capital shares transactions detail can be found in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
Shares of the Funds may only be purchased or redeemed by Authorized Participants. An Authorized Participant is either (1) a “Participating Party” or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) or (2) a “DTC Participant,” which, in either case, must have executed an agreement with the Distributor.
Creation Units of a Fund may be created in advance of receipt by the Trust of all or a portion of the applicable basket of securities and other instruments (“Deposit Instruments”) and cash as described in the Funds’ registration statement. In these instances, the initial Deposit Instruments and cash must be deposited in an amount equal to the sum of the cash amount, plus at least 105% of the market value of undelivered Deposit Instruments. A transaction fee may be imposed to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase or redemption of Creation Units.
Authorized Participants transacting in Creation Units for cash may also pay a variable charge to compensate the relevant fund for market impact expenses relating to investing in portfolio securities. Such variable charges, if any, are included in “Proceeds from shares purchased” or “Proceeds from shares issued” in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
7. Risks, Concentrations and Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. The amount of exposure, if any, would depend on future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
As of February 28, 2018, the Adviser owned more than 10% of the outstanding shares of the following Funds:
| | | | |
| | % Ownership | |
Disciplined High Yield ETF | | | 23 | % |
Global Bond Opportunities ETF | | | 66 | % |
Ultra-Short Income ETF | | | 12 | % |
USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF | | | 91 | % |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | |
FEBRUARY 28, 2018 | | JPMORGAN EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS | | | | | 73 | |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 2018 (continued)
Significant transactions by the Adviser may impact the Funds’ performance.
Disruptions to creations and redemptions, the existence of significant market volatility or potential lack of an active trading market for the Shares (including through a trading halt), as well as other factors, may result in Shares trading significantly above (at a premium) or below (at a discount) to the NAV or to the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings. During such periods, investors may incur significant losses if shares are sold.
The Funds may have elements of risk not typically associated with investments in the United States of America due to concentrated investments in a limited number of countries or regions, which may vary throughout the period. Such concentrations may subject the Funds to additional risks resulting from political or economic conditions in such countries or regions and the possible imposition of adverse governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions could cause the securities and their markets to be less liquid and their prices to be more volatile than those of comparable U.S. securities. As of February 28, 2018, none of the Funds had non-US country allocations representing greater than 10% of total investments.
The Disciplined High Yield ETF invests in high yield securities that are not rated or rated below investment grade (commonly known as “junk bonds”). These securities are considered to be high risk investments. Investments in lower-rated securities or unrated securities of comparable quality tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than higher rated securities. Junk bonds involve a greater risk of default by the issuer because such securities are generally unsecured and are often subordinated to other creditors’ claims. The market price of these securities can change suddenly and unexpectedly. As a result, the Fund is intended for investors who are able and willing to assume a high degree of risk.
The Disciplined High Yield ETF may invest up to 100% of the its total assets in below investment grade securities or unrated securities that JPMIM deems to be of equivalent quality. Such securities may include so called “distressed debt”.
The Funds are subject to interest rate and credit risk. The value of debt securities may decline as interest rates increase. The Funds could lose money if the issuer of a fixed income security is unable to pay interest or repay principal when it is due. Many factors can cause interest rates to rise. Some examples include central bank monetary policy, rising inflation rates and general economic conditions. Given that the Federal Reserve has begun to raise interest rates, the Funds may face a heightened level of interest rate risk. The ability of the issuers of debt to meet their obligations may be affected by the economic and political developments in a specific industry or region.
The Global Bond Opportunities ETF and Ultra-Short Income ETF are also subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that a counterparty fails to perform on agreements with the Funds such as forward foreign currency exchange contracts.
The Global Bond Opportunities ETF and Ultra-Short Income ETF are subject to risks associated with securities with contractual cash flows including asset-backed and mortgage-related securities such as collateralized mortgage obligations, mortgage pass-through securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities, including securities backed by sub-prime mortgage loans. The value, liquidity and related income of these securities are sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including real estate value, prepayments, delinquencies and/or defaults, and may be adversely affected by shifts in the market’s perception of the issuers and changes in interest rates.
Global Bond Opportunities ETF and USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF’s investments in sovereign and corporate debt obligations within emerging market countries may be subject to potentially higher risks than investments in more developed markets and the prices of such investments may be volatile. The yields of emerging market debt obligations reflect, among other things, perceived credit risk. The consequences of political, social or economic instability in these markets may have disruptive effects on the market prices of each Fund’s investments and the income it generates, as well as each Fund’s ability to repatriate such amounts.
Derivatives may be riskier than other types of investments because they may be more sensitive to changes in economic and market conditions and could result in losses that significantly exceed the Funds’ original investment. Many derivatives create leverage thereby causing the Funds to be more volatile than they would have been if they had not used derivatives. Derivatives also expose the Funds to counterparty risk (the risk that the derivative counterparty will not fulfill its contractual obligations), including credit risk of the derivative counterparty.
8. Investment Company Reporting Modernization
In October 2016, the SEC adopted new rules and forms, and amendments to certain current rules and forms, to modernize the reporting and disclosure of information by registered investment companies. In part, the final rules amend Regulation S-X and require standardized, enhanced disclosures about derivatives in investment company financial statements, as well as other amendments. The amendments to Regulation S-X were applied to the Funds’ financial statements as of February 28, 2018. The adoption had no effect on the Funds’ net assets or results of operations.
9. New Accounting Pronouncement
In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-08 (“ASU 2017-08”) Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities, which shortens the premium amortization period for purchased non-contingently callable debt securities. ASU 2017-08 requires that the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date, for purchased non-contingently callable debt securities. ASU 2017-08 is effective for the fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements, if any.

Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2018 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

SCHEDULE OF SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
(Unaudited)
Hypothetical $1,000 Investment
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, investment advisory fees, administration fees and other Fund expenses, in addition to brokerage commissions on your purchases and sales of Fund shares. The examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these ongoing costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds. The examples assume that you had a $1,000 investment at the beginning of the reporting period, September 1, 2017 and continued to hold your shares at the end of the reporting period, February 28, 2018.
Actual Expenses
For the Fund in the table below, the first line provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading
entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other Funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. The examples also assume all dividends and distributions have been reinvested. The examples do not take into account brokerage commissions that you pay when purchasing or selling shares of a Fund.

BOARD APPROVAL OF INITIAL INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
(Unaudited)
JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF
On September 18-19, 2017, the Board of Trustees held an in-person meeting and approved the initial Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) for the JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Sovereign Bond ETF (the “Fund”). The Advisory Agreement was approved by a majority of the Trustees who are not “Interested Persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of any party to the Advisory Agreement or any of their affiliates. In connection with the approval of the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees reviewed written materials prepared by the Adviser and received oral presentations from Adviser personnel. Before voting on the proposed Advisory Agreement, the Trustees reviewed the Advisory Agreement with representatives of the Adviser and with counsel to the Trust and independent legal counsel to the Trustees and received a memorandum from independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed Advisory Agreement. The Trustees also discussed the proposed Advisory Agreement in executive session with independent legal counsel at which no representatives of the Adviser were present. Set forth below is a summary of the material factors evaluated by the Trustees in determining whether to approve the Advisory Agreement.
The Trustees considered information provided with respect to the Fund and the approval of the Advisory Agreement. Each Trustee attributed his or her own evaluation of significance to the various factors, and no factor alone was considered determinative. The Trustees determined that the proposed compensation to be received by the Adviser from the Fund under the Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable and that the initial approval of the Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its potential shareholders.
The factors summarized below were considered and discussed by the Trustees in reaching their conclusions:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided by the Adviser
In connection with the approval of the initial Advisory Agreement, the Trustees considered the materials furnished specifically in connection with the approval of the Advisory Agreement, as well as other relevant information furnished for the Trustees. The Trustees considered the background and experience of the Adviser’s senior management and investment personnel of the Adviser. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Trustees also considered the investment strategy for the Fund, and the infrastructure supporting the portfolio management team. In addition, the Trustees considered information about the structure and distribution strategy of the Fund, how it fits within the Trust’s other fund offerings, and how it will be positioned against peer funds, as identified by management.
The Trustees also considered their knowledge of the nature and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and its affiliates gained from their experience as Trustees of the Trust and in the financial industry generally. In addition, they considered the overall reputation and capabilities of the Adviser and its affiliates, the commitment of the Adviser to provide high quality service to the Fund, their overall confidence in the Adviser’s integrity and the Adviser’s responsiveness to requests for additional information, questions or concerns raised by them.
Based upon these considerations and other factors, the Trustees concluded that they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided to the Fund by the Adviser.
Fall-Out Benefits
The Trustees reviewed information regarding potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits received by the Adviser and its affiliates as a result of their relationship with the Trust.
The Trustees also considered the fees that J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc., in its role as Administrator, will earn from the Fund for providing administrative services. The Trustees also considered the fees paid to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., an affiliate of the Adviser, for custody, transfer agency and other related services. Additionally, the Trustees considered that any fall-out or ancillary benefits would be comparable to those related to the other funds in the complex.
Economies of Scale
The Trustees considered the extent to which the Fund will benefit from economies of scale. The Trustees noted that neither the proposed investment advisory fee schedule nor the proposed administration agreement for the Fund contain breakpoints. The Trustees considered whether it would be appropriate to add advisory fee breakpoints and the Trustees concluded that the current fee structure for the Fund was reasonable in light of the fee waivers and expense limitations that the Adviser has in place, limiting the overall net expense ratio of the Fund to competitive levels. With respect to fees for administrative services, the Trustees also considered the fact that the Fund would benefit from the economies of scale present in the broader J.P. Morgan fund complex, as the Fund was able to negotiate an administration fee at a level consistent with the lower effective rate currently paid by the J.P. Morgan mutual funds, which includes breakpoints. The Trustees also took into consideration management’s belief that because of such economies of scale, the Fund’s administration fee is lower than what the Fund would have to pay if it was not part of the J.P. Morgan fund complex.
Investment Performance
The Trustees considered the Fund’s investment strategy and processes, the portfolio management team and competitive
| | | | | | |
| | | |
80 | | | | JPMORGAN EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS | | FEBRUARY 28, 2018 |
positioning against identified peer funds, and concluded that the prospects for competitive future performance were acceptable.
Advisory Fee and Expense Ratio
The Trustees considered the contractual advisory fee rate that will be paid by the Fund to the Adviser and compared that rate to the fees charged to mutual funds with similar investment objectives or in similar asset classes managed by the Adviser, as well as information prepared by Broadridge Investor Communications Solutions Inc., using data from Lipper Inc. (together, “Broadridge/Lipper”), independent providers of investment company data, concerning management fee rates paid by other funds in the same Broadridge/Lipper category as
the Fund. The Trustees also reviewed information about other projected expenses and the expense ratio for the Fund. The Trustees considered the projected fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangements proposed for the Fund and considered the net advisory fee rate after taking into account any projected waivers and/or reimbursements.
The Trustees noted that the Fund’s estimated net advisory fee and total expenses were in line with identified peer funds. The Trustees also noted that because the Fund was not yet operational, no profitability information was available. After considering the factors identified above, in light of the information, the Trustees concluded that the advisory fee was reasonable.

BOARD APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
(Unaudited)
JPMorgan Disciplined High Yield ETF
The Board of Trustees meets regularly throughout the year and considers factors that are relevant to their annual consideration of investment advisory agreements at each meeting. The Board also meets specifically to consider investment advisory agreement annual renewals. The Board of Trustees held a meeting in person December 12-13, 2017, at which the Trustees considered the continuation of investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) for JPMorgan Disciplined High Yield ETF (the “Fund”). In advance of the December 12-13, 2017 meeting, the Trustees met on November 3, 2017 to discuss certain information in connection with its consideration of the Advisory Agreement. At the December meeting, the Board reviewed and considered performance, expense and other information for the Fund. The Trustees, including a majority of the Trustees who are not “Interested Persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of any party to the Advisory Agreement or any of their affiliates, approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement.
As part of their review of the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees considered and reviewed performance and other information about the Fund received from the Adviser. This information included the Fund’s performance as compared to the performance of its benchmark and analyses by the Adviser of the Fund’s performance. The Adviser also periodically provides comparative information regarding the Fund’s expense ratio and that of its peer groups. In addition, in preparation for the December meeting, the Trustees requested, received and evaluated extensive materials from the Adviser, including performance and expense information compiled by Broadridge Investor Communications Solutions Inc., using data from Lipper Inc. (together, “Broadridge/Lipper”), independent providers of investment company data. Before voting on the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees reviewed the Advisory Agreement with representatives of the Adviser, counsel to the Trust and independent legal counsel and received a memorandum from independent legal counsel to the Trustees discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the Advisory Agreement. The Trustees also discussed the Advisory Agreement in executive sessions with independent legal counsel at which no representatives of the Adviser were present. Set forth below is a summary of the material factors evaluated by the Trustees in determining whether to approve the Advisory Agreement.
The Trustees considered information provided with respect to the Fund over the course of the year. Each Trustee attributed his or her own evaluation of significance to the various factors and no factor alone was considered determinative. From year to year, the Trustees consider and place emphasis on relevant information in light of changing circumstances in market and economic conditions. The Trustees determined that the compensation to be received by the Adviser from the Fund under the Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable and that the continuance of the Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
The factors summarized below were considered and discussed by the Trustees in reaching their conclusions:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided by the Adviser
The Trustees received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under its Advisory Agreement. The Trustees took into account information furnished throughout the year at Trustee meetings, as well as the materials furnished specifically in connection with this annual review process. The Trustees considered the background and experience of the Adviser’s senior management and investment personnel of the Adviser. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Trustees also considered the investment strategies for the Fund, and the infrastructure supporting the portfolio management team. In addition, the Trustees considered information about the structure and distribution strategies of the Fund, how it fits within the Trust’s fund offerings, and how the Fund is positioned against peer funds, as identified by management. The Trustees reviewed information relating to the Adviser’s risk governance model and reports showing the Adviser’s compliance structure and ongoing compliance processes. The Trustees also considered the quality of administrative services provided by J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. in its role as administrator to the Fund (“JPMIM”).
The Trustees also considered their knowledge of the nature and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and its affiliates gained from their experience as Trustees of the Trust and in the financial industry. In addition, they considered the overall reputation and capabilities of the Adviser and its affiliates, the commitment of the Adviser to continue to provide high quality service to the Fund, their overall confidence in the Adviser’s integrity and the Adviser’s responsiveness to requests for additional information, questions or concerns raised by them.
Based upon these considerations and other factors, the Trustees concluded that they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser.
Costs of Services Provided and Profitability to the Adviser and its Affiliates
The Trustees received and considered information regarding the profitability to the Adviser and its affiliates in providing services to the Fund. The Trustees reviewed and discussed this data. The Trustees recognized that this data is not audited and represents the Adviser’s determination of its and its affiliates’ revenues from the contractual services provided to the Fund, less expenses of providing such services. Expenses include direct and indirect costs and are calculated using an allocation methodology developed by the Adviser. The Trustees also recognized that it is difficult to make direct comparisons of
| | | | | | |
| | | |
82 | | | | JPMORGAN EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS | | FEBRUARY 28, 2018 |
profitability from fund investment advisory contracts because comparative information is not generally publicly available and is affected by numerous factors, including the structure of the particular adviser, the types of funds it manages, its business mix, numerous assumptions regarding allocations and the fact that publicly-traded fund managers’ operating profits and net income are net of distribution and marketing expenses. Based upon their review, the Trustees concluded that the profitability to the Adviser under the Advisory Agreement was not unreasonable in light of the services and benefits provided to the Fund.
Fall-Out Benefits
The Trustees reviewed information regarding potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits received by the Adviser and its affiliates as a result of their relationships with the Fund.
The Trustees also considered the fees that JPMIM earned from the Fund for providing administrative services. These fees were shown separately in the profitability analysis presented to the Trustees. The Trustees also considered the fees paid to J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”), also an affiliate of the Adviser, for custody, transfer agency and other related services for the Fund.
Economies of Scale
The Trustees considered the extent to which the Fund may benefit from economies of scale. The Trustees noted that the Adviser has implemented a fee waiver and expense limitation (“Fee Cap”), which allow the Fund’s shareholders to share potential economies of scale from the Fund’s inception. The Trustees noted that neither the investment advisory fee schedule nor the administration agreement for the Fund contain breakpoints, but that fees are competitive with its peer funds. They concluded that the current fee structure was reasonable in light of the Fee Cap that the Adviser has in place which serves to limit the overall net expense ratio of the Fund to competitive levels. With respect to fees for administrative
services, the Trustees also considered the fact that the Fund benefits from the economies of scale present in the broader J.P. Morgan fund complex, as the Fund was able to negotiate an administration fee at level consistent with the lower effective rate currently paid by the J.P. Morgan mutual funds, which includes breakpoints. The Trustees also took into consideration management’s belief that because of such economies of scale, the Fund’s administration fee is lower than what the Fund would have to pay if it were not part of the J.P. Morgan fund complex.
Fees Relative to Adviser’s Other Clients
The Trustees requested and received and considered information about the nature and extent of investment advisory services and fee rates offered to other investment companies advised by the Adviser in the same asset class as the Fund. The Trustees also noted the Adviser’s view that it does not manage any other accounts with a substantially similar investment strategy as that of the Fund. The Trustees concluded that the fee rates charged to the Fund in comparison to those charged to such other clients were reasonable.
Investment Performance
The Trustees considered the Fund’s investment strategy and processes, portfolio management team, and competitive positioning against peer funds, as identified by management. As part of this review, the Trustees also reviewed the Fund’s performance against its benchmark and considered the Fund’s performance information provided at regular Board meetings by the Adviser. After consideration, the Trustees determined that the Fund’s performance was consistent with its investment objective.
Advisory Fee and Expense Ratio
The Trustees considered the contractual advisory fee rate paid by the Fund to the Adviser and compared that rate to the information prepared by Broadridge/Lipper concerning management fee rates paid by other funds with the same Broadridge/Lipper investment classification and objective as the Fund (the “Universe”), as well as a subset of funds in the Universe (the “Peer Group”). The Trustees reviewed a description of Broadridge/Lipper’s methodology for selecting funds in the Peer Group and Universe. The Trustees recognized that Broadridge/Lipper reported the Fund’s management fee rate as the combined contractual advisory fee and administration fee rates. The Trustees also reviewed information about other expenses and the total expense ratio for the Fund. The Trustees considered the Fee Cap currently in place for the Fund and considered the net advisory fee rate after taking into account such Fee Cap. The Trustees recognized that it is difficult to make comparisons of advisory fees because there are variations in the services that are included in the fees paid by other funds.
The Trustees noted that both the Fund’s net advisory fee and actual total expenses were in the first quintile based upon the Universe. After considering the factors identified above, in light of this information, the Trustees concluded that the advisory fee was reasonable.

| (i) | Has at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee; or |
| (ii) | Does not have an audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. |
The Registrant’s Board of Trustees has determined that the Registrant has at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. The Securities and Exchange Commission has stated that the designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial expert pursuant to this Item 3 of Form N-CSR does not impose on such person any duties, obligations or liabilities that are greater than the duties, obligations and liabilities imposed on such person as a member of the Audit Committee and the Board of Trustees in the absence of such designation or identification.
(2) If the registrant provides the disclosure required by paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this Item, it must disclose the name of the audit committee financial expert and whether that person is “independent.” In order to be considered “independent” for purposes of this Item, a member of an audit committee may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee:
| (i) | Accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the issuer; or |
| (ii) | Be an “interested person” of the investment company as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Act (15 U.S.C. 80a-2(a)(19)). | |
The audit committee financial experts are Gary L. French, Robert J. Grassi, Thomas P. Lemke, Lawrence R. Maffia, and EmilyA. Youssouf, each of which is not an “interested person” of the Registrant and is also “independent” as defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for purposes of audit committee financial expert determinations.
(3) If the registrant provides the disclosure required by paragraph (a)(1)(ii) of this Item, it must explain why it does not have an audit committee financial expert.
Not applicable.

2017 – $74,000
(b) Disclose, under the caption Audit-Related Fees, the aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the registrant’s financial statements and are not reported under paragraph (a) of this Item. Registrants shall describe the nature of the services comprising the fees disclosed under this category.
AUDIT-RELATED FEES
2018 – $27,600
2017 – $5,125
Audit-related fees consist of security count procedures performed as required under Rule 17f-2 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the Registrant’s fiscal year.
(c) Disclose, under the caption Tax Fees, the aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.

TAX FEES
2018 – $58,000
2017 – $14,535
The tax fees consist of fees billed in connection with preparing the federal regulated investment company income tax returns for the Registrant for the tax years ended February 28, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
For the last fiscal year, no tax fees were required to be approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
(d) Disclose, under the caption All Other Fees, the aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for products and services provided by the principal accountant, other than the services reported in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Item.

ALL OTHER FEES
2018 – $0
2017 – $0
(e)(1) Disclose the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures described in paragraph (c)(7) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
Pursuant to the Registrant’s Audit Committee Charter and written policies and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services (the “Pre-approval Policy”), the Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and non-audit services performed by the Registrant’s independent public registered accounting firm for the Registrant. In addition, the Audit Committee pre-approves the auditor’s engagement for non-audit services with the Registrant’s investment adviser (not including a sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is sub-contracted or overseen by another investment adviser) and any Service Affiliate in accordance with paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant. Proposed services may be pre-approved either 1) without consideration of specific case-by- case services or 2) require the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. Therefore, initially the Pre-approval Policy listed a number of audit and non-audit services that have been
approved by the Audit Committee, or which were not subject to pre- approval under the transition provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Pre-approval List”). The Audit Committee annually reviews and pre-approves the services included on the Pre-approval List that may be provided by the independent public registered accounting firm without obtaining additional specific pre-approval of individual services from the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee adds to, or subtracts from, the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations. All other audit and non-audit services not on the Pre-approval List must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.
One or more members of the Audit Committee may be appointed as the Committee’s delegate for the purposes of considering whether to approve such services. Any pre-approvals granted by the delegate will be reported, for informational purposes only, to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee’s responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent public registered accounting firm are not delegated to management.
(2) Disclose the percentage of services described in each of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item that were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
2018 – 0.0%
2017 – 0.0%
(f) If greater than 50 percent, disclose the percentage of hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.
Not applicable.
(g) Disclose the aggregate non-audit fees billed by the registrant’s accountant for services rendered to the registrant, and rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of the last two fiscal years of the registrant.
The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the independent registered public accounting firm for services rendered to the Registrant, and rendered to Service Affiliates, for the last two calendar year ends were:
2018 – $32.0 million
2017 – $28.3 million
(h) Disclose whether the registrant’s audit committee of the board of directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any subadviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
The Registrant’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of the non-audit services that were rendered to Service Affiliates that were not pre-approved (not requiring pre-approval) is compatible with maintaining the independent public registered accounting firm’s independence. All services provided by the independent public registered accounting firm to the Registrant or to Service Affiliates that were required to be pre-approved were pre-approved as required.
ITEM 5. AUDIT COMMITTEE OF LISTED REGISTRANTS.
(a) If the registrant is a listed issuer as defined in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act (17CFR 240.10A-3), state whether or not the registrant has a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(58)(A)). If the registrant has such a committee, however designated, identify each committee member. If the entire board of directors is acting as the registrant’s audit committee as specified in Section 3(a)(58)(B) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(58)(B)), so state.
The registrant has a separately designated Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. The members of the Audit Committee are Gary L. French, Robert J. Grassi, Thomas P. Lemke, Lawrence R. Maffia, and Emily A. Youssouf.
(b) If applicable, provide the disclosure required by Rule 10A-3(d) under the Exchange Act (17CFR 240.10A-3(d)) regarding an exemption from the listing standards for all audit committees.
Not applicable.
ITEM 6. SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS.

The Registrant’s principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded, based on their evaluation of the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this report, that the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant on Form N-CSR is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant in the reports that it files or submits on Form N-CSR is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Disclose any change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the Act (17 CFR 270.30a-3(d)) that occurred during the registrant’s second fiscal quarter of the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
