Dear Investor:
Thank you for reviewing this annual report for the period ended August 31, 2021. Annual reports help convey important information about fund returns, including market factors that affected performance. For additional investment insights, please visit americancenturyetfs.com.
Upbeat Backdrop Bolstered Stocks
Global equities and other risk-on assets rallied for the 12-month period, benefiting from ongoing central bank and federal government support. These programs helped sustain investor confidence and bolster the economic landscape, despite ongoing challenges from COVID-19 and the inconsistent lifting of virus-related restrictions.
In general, data on U.S. manufacturing, employment, housing and corporate earnings were upbeat. Additionally, expanding COVID-19 vaccine availability and two federal coronavirus aid packages also helped promote investor optimism. Outside the U.S., economies recovered but at a slower pace. Virus outbreaks and slower vaccine rollouts led to lingering lockdowns in some regions.
Against this backdrop, inflation rose, but central banks remained supportive. In the U.S., where annual consumer inflation hit a 13-year high, the Federal Reserve (Fed) insisted temporary supply chain disruptions and other transient factors were at play. The Fed left interest rates unchanged but hinted it may start hiking rates in 2023, sooner than its previous timetable of 2024.
Despite ongoing pandemic-related challenges, including the emergence of the delta variant of COVID-19, stocks remained in favor and delivered strong 12-month returns. The U.S. generally outperformed other developed markets, as the S&P 500 Index returned more than 31%. Value stocks generally outperformed growth stocks, while small caps significantly outpaced large caps. The broad U.S. Treasury market declined, but credit-sensitive fixed-income securities, including corporate and municipal bonds, delivered gains.
Several Factors Shaping Market Dynamics
The return to pre-pandemic life is progressing, albeit somewhat cautiously due to the spread of the delta variant. As the economy and markets respond to this fluid backdrop, investors will face opportunities and ongoing challenges. Economic growth, inflation, the virus’s trajectory, supply chain normalization, and fiscal and monetary policy likely will sway market dynamics.
We appreciate your confidence in us during these extraordinary times. Our firm has a long history of helping clients weather unpredictable markets, and we’re confident we will continue to meet today’s challenges.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
President and Chief Executive Officer

Fund Strategy
American Century Diversified Corporate Bond ETF seeks to offer enhanced return potential versus passive capitalization-weighted corporate bond portfolios. The fund employs a holistic approach, emphasizing investment-grade credits, while dynamically allocating a portion of the portfolio to high-yield securities to balance interest rate and credit risk. The fund seeks to maintain a duration range of three to seven years, which we believe should mitigate interest rate risk without sacrificing yield.
The fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specific index. To determine whether to buy or sell a security, we consider several factors, including fund requirements and standards, economic conditions, alternative investments, interest rates and various credit metrics.
Performance Review
The fund returned 2.78% on a market price basis for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 3.08%. For the same time period, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Intermediate Corporate Bond Index, the fund’s benchmark index, returned 1.65%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
High-Yield Investments Boosted Performance
Much of the corporate bond market’s gains occurred early in the reporting period amid a continued recovery from the sharp decline experienced during the pandemic’s onset. Soaring growth expectations through the first part of 2021 also aided the market.
Renewed risk appetites fueled a rise in high-yield bonds, especially in industries tied to the economic reopening, such as lodging and airlines. Sectors benefiting from rallying commodity markets, such as energy and metals and mining, also advanced. Although enthusiasm ebbed through 2021’s summer months, due largely to a resurgence in COVID-19 cases resulting from the delta variant, high-yield bonds outperformed investment-grade issues. The fund’s out-of-index exposure to high-yield securities aided returns.
More specifically, high-yield security selection in the financials sector proved advantageous, lifted by exposure to business development companies, real estate investment trusts (REITs) and life insurance companies. Select high-yield holdings in the airlines, banking, home construction and cable and satellite industries further enhanced results.
As brighter growth outlooks stoked inflation concerns and expectations for higher U.S. Treasury yields through March and April, we exited high-yield securities that had performed well. The market subsequently softened as investors assessed the impact of the delta variant. We added back exposure to airlines, gaming, lodging and leisure issues with appealing risk/reward characteristics.
Investment-Grade Securities Added to Gains
Investments in investment-grade bonds within the financials sector lifted performance, led by REITs, life insurers and finance companies. Strong performance leading to relatively full valuations prompted reductions in select issues, most notably lower-rated investment-grade midstream operators within the energy sector. As strong investor demand steadily drove down yields on existing issues, we found better opportunities among new issues. In particular, acquisition-related financing securities in the health care sector offered attractive valuations.
Duration Tempered Returns
Although we started reducing the fund’s duration in late 2020, duration remained longer than index levels when Treasury yields spiked in February and March. This positioning detracted from performance. Rates subsequently retreated from March peaks. At period-end, we maintained a modestly conservative duration, given unusually low Treasury yields.
Portfolio Positioning
Looking ahead, we anticipate the economic recovery to continue, but the path may be choppy. We still believe rates will generally trend higher, and we’ve conservatively positioned the fund’s duration with a shorter profile.
Our economic outlook also prompted us to add to COVID-19-sensitive holdings when they dipped late in the period. Accordingly, we increased existing exposures or established new stakes in the airlines, travel, lodging and energy industries.
From a quality perspective, we don’t believe higher-rated securities offer enough value to offset the higher level of event risk, given their broadly elevated prices. Furthermore, we believe solid corporate fundamentals will help keep default rates near historically low levels. As a result, we ended the period with an overweight position relative to the index in BBB-rated securities and underweight positions in higher-rated names. We also maintained our out-of-index allocation to high-yield securities at the high end of our target range.

Fund Strategy
American Century Diversified Municipal Bond ETF seeks to provide consistent tax-free income. As an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specific index, the fund employs a research-driven process to select holdings. The fund draws from across the municipal bond (muni) universe and adjusts exposure depending on prevailing market conditions. We dynamically allocate holdings to investment-grade issues and may include up to 35% in high-yield issues when the risk/reward balance is attractive. In selecting securities, we employ an active, time-tested process designed to identify attractive issues with low default risk, aiming to align risk exposures with our highest-conviction ideas.
Performance Review
The fund returned 5.59% on a market price basis for the 12 months ended August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 5.50%. For the same time period, the S&P National AMT-Free Municipal Bond Index, the fund’s benchmark index, returned 3.24%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
Fiscal Aid, Investor Demand Bolstered Performance
Much of the muni market’s gains occurred early in the reporting period amid a continued recovery from the sharp decline experienced during the pandemic’s onset. Sustained investor demand, fueled in part by the possibility of higher tax rates from the Biden administration, aided the market. Also, massive fiscal spending, including nearly $1 trillion in aid to municipal issuers, provided a steady tailwind for municipal bonds. Our investments in sectors that we believed had been unfairly punished proved advantageous as valuations improved.
Notably, overweight positions relative to the index in student housing, hospital, continuing care retirement communities (CCRC), corporate munis and multifamily housing bonds supplied a lift. An underweight stake in prerefunded bonds also proved advantageous, although overweight positions in special tax and toll bonds diminished returns.
Higher-Yielding Bonds and Security Selection Enhanced Results
BBB-rated and out-of-index high-yield positions contributed significantly to fund performance as investors clamored for yield in the low-rate environment. As rates moderated and volatility declined later in the period, we reduced exposure to riskier bonds, although we maintained a selective overweight.
Our security selection contributed to relative performance, led by investments in special tax securities and state and local general obligation bonds. However, underperformance among holdings in the hospital, water and sewer and public power sectors offset some of those gains.
The contribution from duration was flat during the period, seemingly mirroring the minimal move in muni yields between the start of the period and its end. Yet, over the course of the period, we shifted our exposure from a solid overweight to a modest underweight, which we believe positions us well for the coming quarters.
Portfolio Positioning
By period-end, the municipal bond market had essentially fully recovered from the COVID-19 setback, and valuations resembled 2019 levels. Because the current fundamental backdrop is much healthier than it was in 2019, investor sentiment is generally more positive. Nonetheless, we’re guarded, given the possibility that investors may look at munis as richly valued, relative to other bonds, and rotate out of the asset class for other opportunities.
Against this backdrop, we remain positive on municipal credit fundamentals but are wary about duration. We believe rates will head higher, which will likely result in increased volatility. Therefore, as we exited select holdings that gained considerably from 2020 lows, we reduced the fund’s duration and its exposure to higher-risk securities.
For example, we reduced our stake in tobacco securities as we upped our exposure to the health care sector by focusing on CCRC and hospital bonds. As COVID-19-related restrictions fade, we anticipate CCRC occupancy rates will improve amid restarted marketing activities. Meanwhile, many hospitals avoided negative rating impacts during the worst of COVID-19 crisis and appear attractive.
More broadly, Congress is considering a $1 trillion infrastructure bill and a $3.5 trillion social programs bill in the coming months. We believe the potential upside of such new fiscal spending is limited, but related event risks are elevated. We also know from past experience that valuations can hold at high levels for an extended period, especially given the tax protection munis offer. But we’re cognizant of potential downsides and have continued to rely on fundamental credit research as we monitor developments.

Fund Strategy
American Century Emerging Markets Bond ETF seeks to offer enhanced yield potential versus passive capitalization-weighted emerging markets bond portfolios. The fund employs a holistic approach, emphasizing sovereign credits, or bonds issued by national governments, while dynamically allocating a portion of the portfolio to corporate securities. The fund integrates fundamental research, quantitative analysis and qualitative assessments. This process considers multiple inputs, such as macroeconomic factors and issuer analysis, in a systematically managed portfolio that includes investment-grade and high-yield securities. The fund strives to mitigate foreign securities risk, emerging markets risk, currency risk and sovereign debt risk, while seeking to balance interest rate risk and credit risk.
The fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specific index. To determine whether to buy or sell a security, we consider several factors, including fund requirements and standards, economic conditions, alternative investments, interest rates and various credit metrics.
Performance Review
The fund returned 0.92%* on a market price basis for the limited period since inception on June 29, 2021, through August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 0.95%. For the same time period, the JPMorgan EMBI Global Diversified Index, the fund’s benchmark index, returned 1.47%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
High-Yield Investments Generally Hindered Performance
A risk-averse mindset prevailed in the markets for much of the abbreviated period. COVID-19 case levels surged on the delta variant’s spread and prompted reductions in global growth expectations. Although riskier securities recovered somewhat late in the period, the fund’s out-of-index allocation to high-yield bonds, which we largely established as the downturn began, weighed on relative returns.
More specifically, exposure to Brazilian sovereign bonds hurt results, as the country’s COVID-19 response, significant political turmoil and a sharp rise in inflation pressured valuations. We’re monitoring the situation carefully. We’re similarly cautious on lagging investments in El Salvador, where the adoption of bitcoin as legal tender threw future International Monetary Fund support into question. Among corporate holdings, oil and gas sector securities lagged amid retreating oil prices.
Colombian Exposure Advantageous
Our stake in Colombian sovereigns boosted relative returns. Colombia has experienced a rebound in economic activity amid tax reform efforts and moves to rein in its deficit. Among corporates, investments in the consumer sector, notably among protein producers in Ukraine and Brazil, aided performance. Security selection in the metals and mining sector also enhanced relative results.
*Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.
Portfolio Positioning
Looking ahead, we believe stabilizing or declining COVID-19 cases, rising vaccination rates and a decoupling from developed markets’ outlooks will bolster emerging markets growth expectations. More specifically, we’re optimistic about Asian markets except for China, which has seen
downward revisions in growth expectations. We also have a positive view of Latin American countries outside of Brazil, where posturing around the 2022 presidential election has already begun.
Given our outlook for improving growth and a weaker U.S. dollar, we anticipate high-yield sovereign bonds will offer compelling value in the coming quarters. Egypt is one example. Egypt’s government is strongly committed to economic reforms and fiscal consolidation, while the resumption of tourism and foreign direct investment stands to bolster the economy.
We also believe the high-yield corporate space offers attractive opportunities. We’re emphasizing commodity focused sectors, such as oil and gas and metals and mining, and select utilities and industrial sector names. Generally, we favor corporates with BB and B credit ratings and select BBB-rated securities, which we believe offer better value than higher-quality securities.

Fund Strategy
American Century Multisector Income ETF seeks to balance interest rate and credit risk in pursuit of attractive income and total return. The fund strives for less interest rate sensitivity than typical core or core plus bond portfolios. Portfolio managers tactically adjust sector exposures and credit quality in an effort to enhance yield and reduce risk.
The fund may invest in U.S. and non-U.S. bond markets, including investment-grade corporate, high-yield corporate, emerging markets debt and securitized credit. Portfolio managers have the flexibility to invest in below investment-grade securities to assist in generating income. The portfolio managers apply fundamental, bottom-up research to select securities. Comprehensive risk measurement, modeling and attribution analysis help set position sizing and provide risk-management guidance.
The fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specific index. To determine whether to buy or sell a security, we consider several factors, including fund requirements and standards, economic conditions, alternative investments, interest rates and various credit metrics.
Performance Review
The fund returned 0.78%* on a market price basis for the period from the fund’s inception on June 29, 2021, through August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 0.75%. For the same time period, the Bloomberg Barclay’s U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, the fund’s benchmark index, returned 1.01%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
Corporate Securities Aided Performance
The fund launched in late June, amid a surge in COVID-19’s delta variant and new restrictions in some regions. This development pushed U.S. Treasury yields lower and prompted investors to recalibrate their economic growth outlooks. Credit spreads widened, particularly among sectors sensitive to the pandemic.
We viewed spread widening as an opportunity to add risk exposure to the fund. We purchased corporate bonds in the airline and other travel-related industries, where valuations appeared attractive. We also found value in the high-yield corporate sector and boosted the fund’s exposure close to its maximum target allocation.
As the summer progressed, concerns about the delta variant and its impact on growth subsided. Credit spreads narrowed, and Treasury yields climbed slightly higher. Against this backdrop, our high-yield corporate bonds were top contributors to the fund’s performance for the period. In particular, our exposure to BB-rated real estate investment trusts (REITs), including a movie theater REIT benefiting from the economic reopening, and metals and mining holdings contributed. Investment-grade corporates in the finance sector also boosted results.
*Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.
Securitized Holdings Lifted Results
In addition to investment-grade and high-yield corporates, we diversified the portfolio with investments in securitized securities, emerging markets bonds and preferred securities. Within the securitized sector, we found attractive opportunities among asset-backed securities (ABS), non-agency collateralized mortgage obligations and lower credit-quality collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). Within the ABS sector, our position in aircraft leasing companies delivered upbeat results. Spread tightening and falling default rates in the CLO sector also aided performance.
Emerging markets securities, including corporate positions in Brazil and Mexico and a sovereign holding in Turkey, also contributed to results.
Portfolio Positioning
Looking ahead, we anticipate the economic recovery to continue, but the path may be choppy. We believe rates will generally move higher, albeit slowly, and we’ve positioned the fund with a relatively short duration.
We have continued to find value in the high-yield corporate sector, and we expect to lift the fund’s allocation if spreads widen. We believe corporate fundamentals will continue to improve, highlighting the value among rising stars, or BB-rated securities poised for a potential ratings upgrade to investment-grade status. We have found such opportunities in the telecommunications, commodity and energy sectors.
Within the securitized sector, we have reduced exposure to housing-related securities in favor of holdings with better risk-adjusted return potential, including ABS and CLOs. Within our emerging markets allocation, we reduced exposure to China and remain cautious, given recent government measures against select industries. Our exposure to investment-grade corporates has remained relatively low, given tight valuations in that market segment. We also have maintained a small position in hybrid securities, which we may increase if rates rise or the equity markets sell off.

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2021 to August 31, 2021 (except as noted).
Actual Expenses
The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each fund. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the fund you own. Then 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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1)Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio listed in the table above, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184, the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, divided by 365, to reflect the one-half year period. Annualized expense ratio reflects actual expenses, including any applicable fee waivers or expense reimbursements and excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses.
(2)Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio listed in the table above, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 64, the number of days in the period from June 29, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021, divided by 365, to reflect the period. Had the fund been available for the full period, the expenses paid during the period would have been higher.

This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.
Investment Valuations — The funds determine the fair value of their investments and compute their net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the funds' investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the funds' pricing function.
Fixed income securities are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Corporate bonds, U.S. Treasury and Government Agency securities, convertible bonds, municipal securities, and sovereign governments and agencies are valued using market models that consider trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information. Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are valued based on models that consider trade data, prepayment and default projections, benchmark yield and spread data and estimated cash flows of each tranche of the issuer. Collateralized loan obligations are valued based on discounted cash flow models that consider trade and economic data, prepayment assumptions and default projections.
Equity securities that are listed or traded on a domestic securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price or at the official closing price as provided by the exchange. Equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges are generally valued at the closing price of such securities on the exchange where primarily traded or at the close of the NYSE, if that is earlier. If no last sales price is reported, or if local convention or regulation so provides, the mean of the latest bid and asked prices may be used. Securities traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price, or the official closing price.
Hybrid securities are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Preferred stocks and convertible preferred stocks with perpetual maturities are valued using market models that consider trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information.
Open-end management investment companies are valued at the reported NAV per share. Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at the settlement price as provided by the appropriate exchange. Swap agreements are valued at an evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or independent brokers.
If the funds determine that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the funds may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the funds to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.
The funds monitor for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before each fund’s NAV per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region. The funds also monitor for significant fluctuations between domestic and foreign markets, as evidenced by the U.S. market or such other indicators that the Board of Trustees, or its delegate, deems appropriate. The funds may apply a model-derived factor to the closing price of equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges. The factor is based on observable market data as provided by an independent pricing service.
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.
Investment Income — Interest income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded on the accrual basis and includes paydown gain (loss) and accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Inflation adjustments related to inflation-linked debt securities are reflected as interest income. Securities lending income is net of fees and rebates earned by the lending agent for its services.
Income Tax Status — It is each fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The funds file U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The funds' tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Segregated Assets — In accordance with the 1940 Act, the funds segregate assets on their books and records to cover certain types of investment securities and other financial instruments. American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the investment advisor) monitors, on a daily basis, the securities segregated to ensure the funds designate a sufficient amount of liquid assets, marked-to-market daily. The funds may also receive assets or be required to pledge assets at the custodian bank or with a broker for collateral requirements.
Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are generally declared and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually. Each fund may elect to treat a portion of its payment to a redeeming shareholder, which represents the pro rata share of undistributed net investment income and net realized gains, as a distribution for federal income tax purposes (tax equalization).
Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.
Securities Lending — Securities are lent to qualified financial institutions and brokers. State Street Bank & Trust Co. serves as securities lending agent to the funds pursuant to a Securities Lending Agreement. The lending of securities exposes the funds to risks such as: the borrowers may fail to return the loaned securities, the borrowers may not be able to provide additional collateral, the funds may experience delays in recovery of the loaned securities or delays in access to collateral, or the funds may experience losses related to the investment collateral. To minimize certain risks, loan counterparties pledge collateral in the form of cash and/or securities. The lending agent has agreed to indemnify the funds in the case of default of any securities borrowed. Cash collateral received is invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Government Money Market Portfolio, a money market mutual fund registered under the 1940 Act. The loans may also be secured by U.S. government securities in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis and adjusted accordingly. By lending securities, the funds seek to increase their net investment income through the receipt of interest and fees. Such income is reflected separately within the Statements of Operations. The value of loaned securities and related collateral outstanding at period end, if any, are shown on a gross basis within the Schedules of Investments and Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
The following table reflects a breakdown of transactions accounted for as secured borrowings, the gross obligation by the type of collateral pledged, and the remaining contractual maturity of those transactions as of August 31, 2021.

3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties
Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, ACIM, and the trust’s administrator, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC. Various funds issued by American Century Strategic Asset Allocations, Inc. own, in aggregate, 42%, 89% and 97% of the shares of Diversified Corporate Bond ETF, Emerging Markets Bond ETF and Multisector Income ETF, respectively. Various funds issued by American Century Municipal Trust own, in aggregate, 7% of the shares of Diversified Municipal Bond ETF. Related parties do not invest in the funds for the purpose of exercising management or control.
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee). The agreement provides that ACIM will pay all expenses of managing and operating the funds, except brokerage and other transaction fees and expenses relating to the acquisition and disposition of portfolio securities, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, litigation expenses and extraordinary expenses. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of each fund and paid monthly in arrears.

Interfund Transactions — The funds may enter into security transactions with other American Century Investments funds and other client accounts of the investment advisor, in accordance with the 1940 Act rules and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The rules and procedures require, among other things, that these transactions be effected at the independent current market price of the security. There were no interfund transactions during the period.

(1)June 29, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
5. Capital Share Transactions
Each fund’s shares may only be bought and sold in a secondary market through a broker-dealer at a market price. Because ETF shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (a premium) or less than NAV (a discount). Each fund issues and redeems shares at their NAV only in aggregations of a specified number of shares (a creation unit) generally in exchange for a designated portfolio of securities and/or cash (including any portion of such securities for which cash may be substituted). Authorized participants may be required to pay an additional variable charge to cover certain brokerage, tax, foreign exchange, execution, market impact and other costs and expenses related to the execution of trades resulting from creation unit transactions. Such variable charges, if any, are included in other capital within the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
6. Fair Value Measurements
The funds’ investment valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.
•Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.
•Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.
•Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).
The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments.
The following is a summary of the level classifications as of period end. The Schedules of Investments provide additional information on the funds’ portfolio holdings.

7. Derivative Instruments
Credit Risk — The funds are subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of a bond generally declines as the credit quality of its issuer declines. Credit default swap agreements enable a fund to buy/sell protection against a credit event of a specific issuer or index. A fund may attempt to enhance returns by selling protection or attempt to mitigate credit risk by buying protection. The buyer/seller of credit protection against a security or basket of securities may pay/receive an up-front or periodic payment to compensate for/against potential default events. Changes in value, including the periodic amounts of interest to be paid or received on swap agreements, are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swap agreements. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, a fund is required to deposit cash or securities (initial margin) with a financial intermediary in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the notional amount. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the value and is a component of unrealized gains and losses. Realized gain or loss is recorded upon receipt or payment of a periodic settlement or termination of swap agreements. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of swap agreements are a component of net realized gain (loss) on swap agreement transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swap agreements, respectively. The risks of entering into swap agreements include the possible lack of liquidity, failure of the counterparty to meet its obligations, and that there may be unfavorable changes in the underlying investments or instruments.
The funds' average notional amount to credit risk derivative instruments held during the period were as follows:
| | | | | |
Diversified Corporate Bond ETF | $3,600,000 |
Interest Rate Risk — The funds are subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of bonds generally declines as interest rates rise. A fund may enter into futures contracts based on a bond index or a specific underlying security. A fund may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to increases in market value or sell futures contracts to protect against a decline in market value. Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on its records in amounts sufficient to meet requirements. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized gains and losses. A fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the futures contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts, respectively. One of the risks of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying securities.
The funds' average notional exposure to interest rate risk derivative instruments held during the period were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| Futures Contracts Purchased | Futures Contracts Sold |
Diversified Corporate Bond ETF | $19,799,622 | $16,573,273 |

8. Risk Factors
The value of the funds’ shares will go up and down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, based on the performance of the securities owned by the funds and other factors generally affecting the securities market. Market risks, including political, regulatory, economic and social developments, can affect the value of the funds’ investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies, terrorism and other unforeseeable events may lead to increased market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on world economies and markets generally.
The funds may invest in instruments that have variable or floating coupon rates based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). LIBOR is a benchmark interest rate intended to be representative of the rate at which certain major international banks lend to one another over short-terms. However, LIBOR is expected to be phased out and the transition process may lead to increased volatility or illiquidity in markets for instruments that rely on LIBOR. Uncertainty remains regarding a replacement rate or rates for LIBOR. The transition process may lead to increased volatility or illiquidity in markets for instruments that rely on LIBOR. This could result in a change to the value of such instruments.
There are certain risks involved in investing in foreign securities. These risks include those resulting from political events (such as civil unrest, national elections and imposition of exchange controls), social and economic events (such as labor strikes and rising inflation), and natural disasters. Securities of foreign issuers may be less liquid and more volatile. Investing in emerging markets or a significant portion of assets in one country or region may accentuate these risks.
The funds may invest in lower-rated debt securities, which are subject to substantial risks including liquidity risk and credit risk.
The majority of Emerging Markets Bond ETF and Multisector Income ETF are owned by a relatively small number of shareholders. To the extent that a large shareholder (including a fund of funds) invests in the funds, the funds may experience relatively large redemptions as such shareholder reallocates its assets. In the event of a large shareholder redemption, the ongoing operations of the funds may be at risk.
A fund’s investment process may result in high portfolio turnover, which could mean high transaction costs, affecting both performance and capital gains tax liabilities to investors.
The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly stressed the financial resources of many municipal issuers, which may impair a municipal issuer’s ability to meet its financial obligations when due and could adversely impact the value of its bonds, which could negatively impact the performance of the funds.
9. Federal Tax Information
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2021 and August 31, 2020 (except as noted) were as follows:

(1)June 29, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.
The reclassifications, which are primarily due to in kind transactions, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Diversified Corporate Bond ETF | Diversified Municipal Bond ETF | Emerging Markets Bond ETF | Multisector Income ETF |
Capital paid in | $ | 4,372,473 | | $ | 939,922 | | — | | — | |
Distributable earnings | $ | (4,372,473) | | $ | (939,922) | | — | | — | |
As of period end, the federal tax cost of investments and the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Diversified Corporate Bond ETF | Diversified Municipal Bond ETF | Emerging Markets Bond ETF | Multisector Income ETF |
Federal tax cost of investments | $ | 153,323,874 | | $ | 158,388,573 | | $ | 22,320,488 | | $ | 83,602,239 | |
Gross tax appreciation of investments | $ | 1,478,724 | | $ | 4,629,701 | | $ | 163,658 | | $ | 291,339 | |
Gross tax depreciation of investments | (40,278) | | (116,943) | | (106,067) | | (169,048) | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments | $ | 1,438,446 | | $ | 4,512,758 | | $ | 57,591 | | $ | 122,291 | |
Undistributed ordinary income | — | | — | | $ | 82,060 | | $ | 207,200 | |
Undistributed exempt income | — | | $ | 195,427 | | — | | — | |
Accumulated short-term capital losses | — | | $ | (67,852) | | $ | (5,148) | | $ | (98,393) | |
Accumulated long-term capital losses | — | | $ | (10,881) | | — | | — | |
Post-October capital loss deferral | $ | (40,336) | | — | | — | | — | |
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts. The cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes for Emerging Markets Bond ETF.
Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The capital loss carryovers may be carried forward for an unlimited period. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations.
Loss deferrals represent certain qualified losses that the fund has elected to treat as having been incurred in the following fiscal year for federal income tax purposes.

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of American Century Diversified Corporate Bond ETF, American Century Diversified Municipal Bond ETF, American Century Emerging Markets Bond ETF, and American Century Multisector Income ETF (the “Funds”), four of the funds constituting the American Century ETF Trust, as of August 31, 2021, the related statements of operations, statements of changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods indicated in the table below; and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting American Century ETF Trust as of August 31, 2021, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods listed in the table below, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights 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 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

Approval of Management Agreements |
American Century Emerging Markets Bond ETF
American Century Multisector Income ETF
At a meeting held on March 11, 2021, the Funds’ Board of Trustees unanimously approved the initial management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for the American Century Emerging Markets Bond ETF and American Century Multisector Income ETF (collectively the "New Funds"). Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, new contracts for investment advisory services are required to be approved by a majority of a fund’s independent trustees and to be evaluated on an annual basis thereafter.
In advance of the Board’s consideration, the Advisor provided information concerning the New Funds. The materials circulated and the discussions held detailed the investment objective and strategy proposed to be utilized by the Advisor, the New Funds’ characteristics and key attributes, the rationale for launching the New Funds, the experience of the staff designated to manage the New Funds, the proposed pricing, and the markets in which the New Funds would be sold. The information considered and the discussions held included, but were not limited to:
•the nature, extent, and quality of investment management and other services to be provided to the New Funds;
•the wide range of other programs and services the Advisor would provide to each New Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
•each New Fund’s proposed investment objective and strategy, including a discussion of its anticipated investment performance and proposed benchmark;
•the cost of owning each New Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
•the Advisor’s compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience; and
•any collateral benefits derived by the Advisor from the management of the New Funds.
Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider and comparing each New Fund’s fee to the total expense ratio of expected peer funds. The annual management fees charged to shareholders of each of the New Funds were anticipated to be below the median of the total expense ratios of their respective peer universe.
When considering the approval of the management agreement for the New Funds, the independent Trustees considered the entrepreneurial risk that the Advisor assumes in launching a new fund. In particular, they considered the fact that the Advisor will assume a substantial part of the start-up costs of the New Funds and the risk that the New Funds will not grow to a level that will become profitable to the Advisor. The Board considered the position that the New Funds would take in the lineup of the American Century Investments’ family of funds and the benefits to shareholders of existing funds of the broadened product offering. Finally, while not specifically discussed, but important in the decision to approve the management agreement, is the Trustees’ familiarity with the Advisor. A majority of the Board oversees and evaluates on a continuous basis the nature and quality of all services the Advisor performs for other funds within the American Century Investments’ complex. As such, the Trustees have confidence in the Advisor’s integrity and competence in providing services to the New Funds.
The independent Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor and the independent Trustees’ independent counsel in connection with the approval, and evaluated such information for the New Funds. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. The independent Trustees concluded that the overall arrangements between the New Funds and the Advisor, as provided in the management agreement, were fair and reasonable in light of the services to be provided and should be approved.
American Century Diversified Corporate Bond ETF
American Century Diversified Municipal Bond ETF
At a meeting held on June 3, 2021, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the "Board") unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for American Century Diversified Corporate Bond ETF and American Century Diversified Municipal Bond ETF (collectively the "Existing Funds"). Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s trustees (the “Trustees”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year.
Prior to its consideration of the management agreement, the Trustees requested and reviewed extensive data and information compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Existing Funds and the services provided to each Fund by the Advisor. This review was in addition to the oversight and evaluation undertaken by the Board and its Audit Committee on a continual basis and the information received was supplemental to the extensive information that the Board and its Audit Committee receive and consider throughout the year.
In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:
•the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided and to be provided to each Fund including without limitation portfolio management and trading services, shareholder and intermediary services, compliance and legal services, fund accounting and financial reporting, and fund share distribution;
•the wide range of other programs and services provided and to be provided to each Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
•the investment performance of each Fund, including data comparing each Fund's performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
•the cost of owning each Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
•the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience of the Advisor and the Existing Funds’ service providers;
•the Advisor’s strategic plans, COVID-19 pandemic response, vendor management practices, and social justice initiatives;
•the Advisor’s business continuity plans and cyber security practices;
•financial data showing the cost of services provided to each Fund, the profitability of each Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
•information regarding payments to intermediaries by the Advisor;
•possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of each Fund; and
•possible collateral benefits to the Advisor from the management of the Existing Funds.
The independent Trustees met separately in private session to discuss the renewal and to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also held active discussions with the Advisor regarding the renewal of the management agreement. The independent Trustees had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.
Factors Considered
The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and independent counsel in connection with the approval. They determined that the information was sufficient for them to evaluate the management agreement for the Existing Funds. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including without limitation the following:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services — Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of each Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services which include the following:
•constructing and designing each Fund
•portfolio research and security selection
•initial capitalization/funding
•securities trading
•Fund administration
•custody of Fund assets
•daily valuation of each Fund’s portfolio
•liquidity monitoring and management
•risk management, including cyber security
•shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
•legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
•regulatory and portfolio compliance
•financial reporting
•marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by each Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)
Investment Management Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Existing Funds is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage each Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to monitor trading activities, and in particular to seek the best execution of fund trades, and to evaluate the use of and payment for research. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board provides oversight of the investment performance process. It regularly reviews investment performance information for each Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks over different time horizons. The Trustees also review investment performance information during the management agreement renewal process. If performance concerns are identified, the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The performance for American Century Diversified Municipal Bond ETF was above its benchmark for the one-year and since inception periods reviewed by the Board, and the performance for the American Century Diversified Corporate Bond ETF was below its benchmark for the one-year and since inception periods reviewed by the Board. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Existing Funds to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.
Shareholder and Other Services. Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges for a comprehensive package of services to the Existing Funds. The Board, directly and through its Audit Committee, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided,
staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction, technology support (including cyber security), new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to each Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Existing Funds, its profitability in managing each Fund (pre- and post-distribution), its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Existing Funds.
Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to the Existing Funds and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.
Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of each Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is sharing economies of scale, to the extent they exist, through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business, infrastructure, investment capabilities and initiatives to provide shareholders additional content and services.
Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that each Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Existing Fund, other than brokerage expenses, expenses attributable to short sales, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Existing Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider comparing the Existing Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratios of its peers. The unified fee charged to shareholders of the American Century Diversified Corporate Bond ETF was below the median of the total expense ratios of its peer expense universe and was within the range of its peer expense group. The unified fee charged to shareholders of the American Century Diversified Municipal Bond ETF was below the median of the total expense ratios of its peer expense universe and was the lowest of its peer expense group. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by each Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Existing Funds.
Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to funds or other advisory clients managed similarly to the Existing Funds. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Existing Funds. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Existing Funds were reasonable by comparison.
Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by each Fund and the Advisor and services provided in response thereto. These payments could include various payments made by each Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for each Fund. The Trustees reviewed such information and received representations from the Advisor that all such payments by the Advisor were made from the Advisor’s resources and reasonable profits. The Board found such payments to be reasonable in scope and purpose.
Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the possible existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Existing Funds. They concluded that the Advisor’s primary business is managing funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that additional assets from other clients may offer the Advisor some benefit from increased leverage with service providers and counterparties. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Existing Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Board concluded that appropriate allocation methodologies had been employed to assign resources and the cost of those resources to these other clients
Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Existing Funds’ operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in each Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to each Fund.
Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, determined that the management fee is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and that the investment management agreement between the Existing Funds and the Advisor should be renewed.

The Funds have adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Funds' Board of Trustees (the "Board") has designated American Century Investment Management, Inc. (“ACIM”) as the administrator of the program. Personnel of ACIM or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program pursuant to policies and procedures administered by those members of the ACIM’s Investment Oversight Committee who are members of the ACIM’s Investment Management and Global Analytics departments.
Under the program, ACIM manages the Funds' liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Funds. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments, limiting the amount of the Funds' illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to the Funds for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. ACIM’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The Board reviewed a report prepared by ACIM regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, ACIM provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing the Funds' liquidity risk.
Retirement Account Information
As required by law, distributions you receive from certain retirement accounts are subject to federal income tax withholding, unless you elect not to have withholding apply*. Tax will be withheld on the total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case, excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.
Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect not to have income tax withheld or you don’t have enough income tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. You can reduce or defer the income tax on a distribution by directly or indirectly rolling such distribution over to another IRA or eligible plan. You should consult your tax advisor for additional information.
State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income tax withheld (or as otherwise required by state law). State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in accordance with the respective state rules.
*Some 403(b), 457 and qualified retirement plan distributions may be subject to 20% mandatory withholding, as they are subject to special tax and withholding rules. Your plan administrator or plan sponsor is required to provide you with a special tax notice explaining those rules at the time you request a distribution. If applicable, federal and/or state taxes may be withheld from your distribution amount.

Dear Investor:
Thank you for reviewing this annual report for the period ended August 31, 2021. Annual reports help convey important information about fund returns, including market factors that affected performance. For additional investment insights, please visit americancenturyetfs.com.
Upbeat Backdrop Bolstered Stocks
Global equities and other risk-on assets rallied for the 12-month period, benefiting from ongoing central bank and federal government support. These programs helped sustain investor confidence and bolster the economic landscape, despite ongoing challenges from COVID-19 and the inconsistent lifting of virus-related restrictions.
In general, data on U.S. manufacturing, employment, housing and corporate earnings were upbeat. Additionally, expanding COVID-19 vaccine availability and two federal coronavirus aid packages also helped promote investor optimism. Outside the U.S., economies recovered but at a slower pace. Virus outbreaks and slower vaccine rollouts led to lingering lockdowns in some regions.
Against this backdrop, inflation rose, but central banks remained supportive. In the U.S., where annual consumer inflation hit a 13-year high, the Federal Reserve (Fed) insisted temporary supply chain disruptions and other transient factors were at play. The Fed left interest rates unchanged but hinted it may start hiking rates in 2023, sooner than its previous timetable of 2024.
Despite ongoing pandemic-related challenges, including the emergence of the delta variant of COVID-19, stocks remained in favor and delivered strong 12-month returns. The U.S. generally outperformed other developed markets, as the S&P 500 Index returned more than 31%. Value stocks generally outperformed growth stocks, while small caps significantly outpaced large caps. The broad U.S. Treasury market declined, but credit-sensitive fixed-income securities, including corporate and municipal bonds, delivered gains.
Several Factors Shaping Market Dynamics
The return to pre-pandemic life is progressing, albeit somewhat cautiously due to the spread of the delta variant. As the economy and markets respond to this fluid backdrop, investors will face opportunities and ongoing challenges. Economic growth, inflation, the virus’s trajectory, supply chain normalization, and fiscal and monetary policy likely will sway market dynamics.
We appreciate your confidence in us during these extraordinary times. Our firm has a long history of helping clients weather unpredictable markets, and we’re confident we will continue to meet today’s challenges.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
President and Chief Executive Officer

Fund Strategy
American Century Focused Dynamic Growth ETF is an actively managed fund that seeks long-term capital growth. We look for liquid stocks of early and rapid stage growth companies we believe will increase in value over time. We make investment decisions based primarily on fundamental analysis of individual companies, rather than on broad economic forecasts. Management of the fund is based on the belief that, over the long term, stock price movements follow growth in earnings, revenues and/or cash flow. The fund invests primarily in securities of large-capitalization companies but may invest in companies of any market capitalization. The fund normally invests in a relatively limited number of companies, generally 30 to 45 securities, but may incorporate more securities to account for liquidity constraints.
Performance Review
The fund returned 27.43% on a market price basis for its fiscal year ended August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 27.61%. For the same time period, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, the fund’s benchmark, returned 28.53%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
Consumer Staples Weighed on Performance
Our holdings of beverage companies hampered performance in the consumer staples sector. The Boston Beer Co. missed earnings expectations and lowered forward guidance, largely due to lower-than-expected demand and increased competition in the hard seltzer market, which hurt sales of its Truly brand. We think the company remains an incredibly innovative, well-run business and that the stock is attractive. Constellation Brands also detracted on concerns about rising input costs for its beer brands.
Other Detractors
Salesforce.com offers cloud-based customer relationship software and enjoyed strong growth in 2020. The stock was vulnerable to profit-taking and fell sharply following its announced acquisition of Slack Technologies, a messaging platform. We believe it’s a good fit strategically, but some investors focused on Slack’s near-term losses. Not owning the gaming and artificial intelligence chipmaker NVIDIA hampered relative performance. With respect to the NVIDIA underweight, we preferred to own niche chipmakers because of their unique competitive position or companies further down the value chain closer to end markets.
Several portfolio holdings reported strong results but were victims of the market’s swing away from growth and toward value-oriented stocks in late 2020 and early 2021. Investors moved to cyclical stocks that were expected to benefit from the economic recovery and away from the high-growth stocks that outperformed for most of 2020. Cloud-based secure-identification software company Okta was one such holding. Another was RingCentral, a provider of cloud communications software, which lagged despite reporting better-than-anticipated revenue and earnings. The online education company Chegg reported solid subscriber and revenue growth in the most recent quarter. However, investors worried that a return to in-person education in many countries might limit growth going forward.
Consumer Discretionary Benefited Performance
Tesla was a top contributor in the consumer discretionary sector. Tesla is an innovative, early stage growth company that is fundamentally changing the electric vehicle market and potentially transforming other adjacent markets as well (autonomous vehicles, commercial trucking, solar, energy storage, manufacturing processes). It continued to benefit from solid fundamental results and strong demand for its vehicles. The company reached its goal of nearly 500,000 vehicles
delivered in 2020. The global market is estimated at around 80 million vehicles per year, so market share gains, new products (semitractor and pickup trucks) and energy business opportunities (solar and battery) help position the company for sustained growth.
Several information technology holdings were top contributors. The billing and payments company Bill.com Holdings enjoyed strong subscriber and transaction growth. It continued to make attractive acquisitions, such as buying Invoice2go, whose software helps small businesses and freelancers manage their businesses more efficiently. Square, an early stage mobile payments company with tremendous growth potential, reported better-than-expected earnings. The company benefited from optimism about continued growth trends in its Cash App business, while its merchant-based business showed signs of stabilizing after being negatively impacted by the COVID-19 virus. Slack Technologies, a messaging software company, rose sharply following the announcement that it would be acquired by salesforce.com. We eliminated our position as a result of that transaction. DocuSign, the leading electronic signature company, reported strong year-over-year revenue and earnings growth. The results were significantly above investor expectations and above pre-pandemic growth levels. DocuSign continued to see elevated customer usage, a positive sign the business may be able to maintain recent elevated growth rates.
Portfolio Positioning
The fund typically holds stakes in a relatively small number of companies in the early and rapid phases of growth. We seek companies that we believe are positioned for sustained, above-average growth over time driven by innovation. The fund’s sector allocations are primarily the result of this investment process emphasizing growth and individual security selection. The portfolio’s holdings are concentrated among companies that we view as having good management teams, have produced strong earnings growth and that have demonstrated their unique value proposition for customers. We believe these companies are well-positioned competitively going forward.

Performance Summary
American Century Focused Large Cap Value ETF returned 29.14% on a market price basis over the 12-month period ending August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 29.19%. The fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, returned 36.44% during the same period. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
The portfolio’s overweight as well as several of the portfolio’s holdings in the consumer staples and health care sectors detracted from relative performance. On the other hand, security selection in the information technology and industrials sectors positively impacted results.
Consumer Staples and Health Care Detracted
During the reporting period, investors rotated out of many consumer staples companies that benefited from the COVID-19-induced lockdowns and into companies that were more likely to benefit from economic reopening. As a result, some of the portfolio’s largest individual detractors were consumer staples holdings, including Unilever and Mondelez International. In addition, Unilever reported disappointing profits for the second half of 2020, further pressuring the stock. We continue to hold Unilever in the portfolio because we believe its valuation is compelling. We are also attracted to the company’s geographic end markets, as nearly two-thirds of its sales are derived from developing markets. Mondelez, a multinational food, beverage and confectionary company, also underperformed. However, as the global economy recovers from the pandemic, we believe Mondelez will recover from temporary pressures on sales in emerging markets and convenience stores. Our analysis shows the company offers a strong balance sheet and compelling brands with leading market shares.
In the health care sector, pharmaceutical company Johnson & Johnson was a notable detractor. The stock was pressured by a temporary pause in the company’s COVID-19 vaccine rollout after six cases of a rare blood clot were found. Also, the U.S. Supreme Court denied hearing a talcum powder case, forcing Johnson & Johnson to pay a $2 billion verdict. Medical device companies Becton Dickinson and Co. and Medtronic also underperformed as the delta variant and a spike in COVID-19 cases led to a decline in elective procedures. This also pushed the timeline out for the return to normal levels for these procedures.
Atmos Energy was another notable detractor. Like many other utilities, this large Texas-based natural gas distributor underperformed the broad market due to lack of exposure to the reopening trade and the potential for higher interest rates.
Information Technology and Industrials Contributed
The information technology sector was an area of strength. Lack of exposure to several of the benchmark’s names in the IT services industry was beneficial. In addition, our position in F5 Networks helped performance. This application services company outperformed after the company announced a $1 billion stock buyback plan, increased its margin targets to a level closer to historic levels and updated its business transition from hardware to software. The company also posted strong earnings. Oracle was another notable contributor. The software company outperformed after announcing earnings that showed momentum in cloud revenue and continued growth in enterprise resource planning.
Other key contributors included industrials holdings Johnson Controls International and Emerson Electric. Johnson Controls outperformed after providing better-than-expected cash flow guidance for 2021, a cost-cutting program and long-term margin improvement targets. Emerson Electric, a higher-quality electrical company, continued to execute on its restructuring actions, driving market expansion through the economic downturn. Additionally, Emerson’s disciplined capital allocation supported free cash flow growth and a dividend increase.
While security selection in the financials sector was negative overall, The Bank of New York Mellon and Chubb were among the portfolio’s top individual contributors. The Bank of New York Mellon outperformed after announcing higher earnings and better-than-expected guidance. Improved fee income offset a headwind from lower interest rates. In addition, the company announced a 10% dividend increase and $6 billion share repurchase authorization that exceeded expectations. Insurance company Chubb outperformed after posting results that featured rising margins due to price increases on its commercial policies.
Portfolio Positioning
The portfolio seeks to invest in companies where we believe the valuation does not reflect the quality and normal earnings power of the company. Our process is based on individual security selection, but broad themes have emerged.
Our bottom-up investment process has led us to higher-quality health care companies with compelling risk/reward profiles. We have found attractive valuations in pharmaceuticals and believe the risks of regulatory actions within the industry have diminished. In addition, we believe medical equipment companies should benefit as the demand for elective procedures normalizes after experiencing volatility since the onset of the pandemic. The portfolio also ended the period with an overweight in consumer staples relative to the benchmark. Within the sector, we have identified companies that fit our investment process well due to their attractive valuations and stable business models.
On the other hand, as of August 31, 2021, the portfolio did not hold any positions in the consumer discretionary sector. It has been difficult for us to find higher-quality consumer discretionary companies with sustainable business models. The portfolio is also underweight in communication services, as many companies in the sector have relatively volatile business models and more leveraged balance sheets.

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2021 to August 31, 2021.
Actual Expenses
The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each fund. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the fund you own.Then 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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1)Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio listed in the table above, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184, the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, divided by 365, to reflect the one-half year period. Annualized expense ratio reflects actual expenses, including any applicable fee waivers or expense reimbursements and excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses.

Notes to Financial Statements |
AUGUST 31, 2021
1. Organization
American Century ETF Trust (the trust) was registered as a Delaware statutory trust in 2017 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. American Century Focused Dynamic Growth ETF (Focused Dynamic Growth ETF) and American Century Focused Large Cap Value ETF (Focused Large Cap Value ETF) (collectively, the funds) are two funds in a series issued by the trust. Each fund's investment objective is to seek long-term capital growth. Shares of each fund are listed for trading on the Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. The funds incepted on March 31, 2020.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the funds in preparation of their financial statements. Each fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.
Investment Valuations — The funds determine the fair value of their investments and compute their net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the funds' investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the funds' pricing function.
Equity securities that are listed or traded on a domestic securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price or at the official closing price as provided by the exchange. Equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges are generally valued at the closing price of such securities on the exchange where primarily traded or at the close of the NYSE, if that is earlier. If no last sales price is reported, or if local convention or regulation so provides, the mean of the latest bid and asked prices may be used. Securities traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price, or the official closing price.
Open-end management investment companies are valued at the reported NAV per share.
If the funds determine that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the funds may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the funds to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.
The funds monitor for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before each fund’s NAV per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region. The funds also monitor for significant fluctuations between domestic and foreign markets, as evidenced by the U.S. market or such other indicators that the Board of Trustees, or its delegate, deems appropriate. The funds may apply a model-derived factor to the closing price of equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges. The factor is based on observable market data as provided by an independent pricing service.
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.
Investment Income — Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or long-term capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The funds may estimate the components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable distributions or long-term capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums.
Income Tax Status — It is each fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The funds file U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The funds' tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are generally declared and paid quarterly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually. Each fund may elect to treat a portion of its payment to a redeeming shareholder, which represents the pro rata share of undistributed net investment income and net realized gains, as a distribution for federal income tax purposes (tax equalization).
Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.
3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties
Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM), and the trust’s administrator, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC. Various funds issued by American Century Strategic Asset Allocations, Inc. own, in aggregate, 36% and 46% of the shares of Focused Dynamic Growth ETF and Focused Large Cap Value ETF, respectively. Related parties do not invest in the funds for the purpose of exercising management or control.
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee). The agreement provides that ACIM will pay all expenses of managing and operating the funds, except brokerage and other transaction fees and expenses relating to the acquisition and disposition of portfolio securities, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, litigation expenses and extraordinary expenses. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of each fund and paid monthly in arrears.
The annual management fee for each fund is as follows:
| | | | | |
| Annual Management Fee |
Focused Dynamic Growth ETF | 0.45% |
Focused Large Cap Value ETF | 0.42% |
4. Investment Transactions
Purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term investments and in kind transactions, for the period ended August 31, 2021 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| Focused Dynamic Growth ETF | Focused Large Cap Value ETF |
Purchases | $93,142,715 | $136,939,448 |
Sales | $59,977,357 | $64,922,649 |
Securities received or delivered in kind through subscriptions and redemptions and in kind net realized gain (loss) for the period ended August 31, 2021 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| In kind Subscriptions | In kind Redemptions | In kind Net Realized Gain/(Loss)* |
Focused Dynamic Growth ETF | $26,452,081 | $86,215,709 | $27,414,584 |
Focused Large Cap Value ETF | $66,806,011 | — | — |
*Net realized gain (loss) on in kind transactions are not considered taxable for federal income tax purposes.
5. Capital Share Transactions
Each fund’s shares may only be bought and sold in a secondary market through a broker-dealer at a market price. Because ETF shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (a premium) or less than NAV (a discount). Each fund issues and redeems shares at their NAV only in aggregations of a specified number of shares (a creation unit) generally in exchange for a designated portfolio of securities and/or cash (including any portion of such securities for which cash may be substituted). Authorized participants may be required to pay an additional variable charge to cover certain brokerage, tax, foreign exchange, execution, market impact and other costs and expenses related to the execution of trades resulting from creation unit transactions. Such variable charges, if any, are included in other capital within the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
6. Fair Value Measurements
The funds’ investment valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.
•Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.
•Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.
•Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).
The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments.
As of period end, the funds’ investment securities were classified as Level 1. The Schedules of Investments provide additional information on the funds’ portfolio holdings.
7. Risk Factors
The value of the funds’ shares will go up and down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, based on the performance of the securities owned by the funds and other factors generally affecting the securities market. Market risks, including political, regulatory, economic and social developments, can affect the value of the funds’ investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies, terrorism and other unforeseeable events may lead to increased market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on world economies and markets generally.
There are certain risks involved in investing in foreign securities. These risks include those resulting from political events (such as civil unrest, national elections and imposition of exchange controls), social and economic events (such as labor strikes and rising inflation), and natural disasters. Securities of foreign issuers may be less liquid and more volatile. Investing a significant portion of assets in one country or region may accentuate these risks.
8. Federal Tax Information
The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended August 31, 2021 and the period March 31, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2021 | 2020 |
| Distributions Paid From: | Distributions Paid From: |
| Ordinary Income | Long-term Capital Gains | Ordinary Income | Long-term Capital Gains |
Focused Dynamic Growth ETF | $ | 21,565 | | $ | 275 | | — | | — | |
Focused Large Cap Value ETF | $ | 2,991,009 | | — | | $ | 93,626 | | — | |
The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.
The reclassifications for Focused Dynamic Growth ETF, which are primarily due to in kind transactions, were made to capital paid in $27,817,035 and distributable earnings $(27,817,035).
As of period end, the federal tax cost of investments and the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| Focused Dynamic Growth ETF | Focused Large Cap Value ETF |
Federal tax cost of investments | $ | 164,516,820 | | $ | 221,583,620 | |
Gross tax appreciation of investments | $ | 66,931,255 | | $ | 42,765,478 | |
Gross tax depreciation of investments | (31,622) | | (877,924) | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments | $ | 66,899,633 | | $ | 41,887,554 | |
Undistributed ordinary income | — | | $ | 5,594,657 | |
Accumulated long-term gains | — | | $ | 517,264 | |
Late-year ordinary loss deferral | $ | (342,022) | | — | |
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
The loss deferrals represent certain qualified losses that the funds have elected to treat as having been incurred in the following fiscal year for federal income tax purposes.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of American Century ETF Trust:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of American Century Focused Dynamic Growth ETF and American Century Focused Large Cap Value ETF (the “Funds”), two of the funds constituting the American Century ETF Trust, as of August 31, 2021, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the year ended August 31, 2021, and the period from March 31, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020; and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting American Century ETF Trust as of August 31, 2021, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for the year ended August 31, 2021, and the period from March 31, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights 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 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

Approval of Management Agreement |
At a meeting held on June 3, 2021, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the "Board") unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for each of the Funds. Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s trustees (the “Trustees”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year.
Prior to its consideration of the management agreement, the Trustees requested and reviewed extensive data and information compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Funds and the services provided to each Fund by the Advisor. This review was in addition to the oversight and evaluation undertaken by the Board and its Audit Committee on a continual basis and the information received was supplemental to the extensive information that the Board and its Audit Committee receive and consider throughout the year.
In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:
•the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided and to be provided to each Fund including without limitation portfolio management and trading services, shareholder and intermediary services, compliance and legal services, fund accounting and financial reporting, and fund share distribution;
•the wide range of other programs and services provided and to be provided to each Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
•the investment performance of each Fund, including data comparing each Fund's performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
•the cost of owning each Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
•the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience of the Advisor and the Funds’ service providers;
•the Advisor’s strategic plans, COVID-19 pandemic response, vendor management practices, and social justice initiatives;
•the Advisor’s business continuity plans and cyber security practices;
•financial data showing the cost of services provided to each Fund, the profitability of each Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
•information regarding payments to intermediaries by the Advisor;
•possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of each Fund; and
•possible collateral benefits to the Advisor from the management of the Funds.
The independent Trustees met separately in private session to discuss the renewal and to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also held active discussions with the Advisor regarding the renewal of the management agreement. The independent Trustees had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.
Factors Considered
The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and independent counsel in connection with the approval. They determined that the information was sufficient for them to evaluate the management agreement for the Funds. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including without limitation the following:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services — Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of each Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services which include the following:
•constructing and designing each Fund
•portfolio research and security selection
•initial capitalization/funding
•securities trading
•Fund administration
•custody of Fund assets
•daily valuation of each Fund’s portfolio
•liquidity monitoring and management
•risk management, including cyber security
•shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
•legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
•regulatory and portfolio compliance
•financial reporting
•marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by each Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)
Investment Management Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Funds is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage each Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to monitor trading activities, and in particular to seek the best execution of fund trades, and to evaluate the use of and payment for research. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board provides oversight of the investment performance process. It regularly reviews investment performance information for each Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks over different time horizons. The Trustees also review investment performance information during the management agreement renewal process. If performance concerns are identified, the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The performance for American Century Focused Dynamic Growth ETF was above its benchmark for the periods reviewed by the Board, and the performance for American Century Focused Large Cap Value ETF was below its benchmark for the periods reviewed by the Board. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Funds to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.
Shareholder and Other Services. Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges for a comprehensive package of services to the Funds. The Board, directly and through its Audit Committee, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction, technology support (including cyber security), new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to each Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Funds, its profitability in managing each Fund (pre- and post-distribution), its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Funds.
Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to the Funds and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.
Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of each Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is sharing economies of scale, to the extent they exist, through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business, infrastructure, investment capabilities and initiatives to provide shareholders additional content and services.
Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that each Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses, expenses attributable to short sales, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider comparing the Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratios of its peers. The unified fee charged to shareholders of American Century Focused Dynamic Growth ETF was below the median of the total expense ratios of its peer expense universe and was the lowest of its peer expense group. The unified fee charged to shareholders of American Century Focused Large Cap Value ETF was the lowest of the total expense ratios of its peer expense universe and was the lowest of its peer expense group. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by each Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.
Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees,
costs, and profitability of its advisory services to funds or other advisory clients managed similarly to the Funds. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Funds. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Funds were reasonable by comparison.
Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by each Fund and the Advisor and services provided in response thereto. These payments could include various payments made by each Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for each Fund. The Trustees reviewed such information and received representations from the Advisor that all such payments by the Advisor were made from the Advisor’s resources and reasonable profits. The Board found such payments to be reasonable in scope and purpose.
Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the possible existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. They concluded that the Advisor’s primary business is managing funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that additional assets from other clients may offer the Advisor some benefit from increased leverage with service providers and counterparties. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Board concluded that appropriate allocation methodologies had been employed to assign resources and the cost of those resources to these other clients
Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Funds’ operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in each Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to each Fund.
Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, determined that the management fee is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and that the investment management agreement between the Funds and the Advisor should be renewed.

Liquidity Risk Management Program |
The Funds have adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Funds' Board of Trustees (the "Board") has designated American Century Investment Management, Inc. (“ACIM”) as the administrator of the program. Personnel of ACIM or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program pursuant to policies and procedures administered by those members of the ACIM’s Investment Oversight Committee who are members of the ACIM’s Investment Management and Global Analytics departments.
Under the program, ACIM manages the Funds' liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Funds. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments, limiting the amount of the Funds' illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to the Funds for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. ACIM’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The Board reviewed a report prepared by ACIM regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, ACIM provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing the Funds' liquidity risk.
Retirement Account Information
As required by law, distributions you receive from certain retirement accounts are subject to federal income tax withholding, unless you elect not to have withholding apply*. Tax will be withheld on the total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case, excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.
Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect not to have income tax withheld or you don’t have enough income tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. You can reduce or defer the income tax on a distribution by directly or indirectly rolling such distribution over to another IRA or eligible plan. You should consult your tax advisor for additional information.
State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income tax withheld (or as otherwise required by state law). State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in accordance with the respective state rules.
*Some 403(b), 457 and qualified retirement plan distributions may be subject to 20% mandatory withholding, as they are subject to special tax and withholding rules. Your plan administrator or plan sponsor is required to provide you with a special tax notice explaining those rules at the time you request a distribution. If applicable, federal and/or state taxes may be withheld from your distribution amount.

Dear Investor:
Thank you for reviewing this annual report for the period ended August 31, 2021. Annual reports help convey important information about fund returns, including market factors that affected performance. For additional investment insights, please visit americancenturyetfs.com.
Upbeat Backdrop Bolstered Stocks
Global equities and other risk-on assets rallied for the 12-month period, benefiting from ongoing central bank and federal government support. These programs helped sustain investor confidence and bolster the economic landscape, despite ongoing challenges from COVID-19 and the inconsistent lifting of virus-related restrictions.
In general, data on U.S. manufacturing, employment, housing and corporate earnings were upbeat. Additionally, expanding COVID-19 vaccine availability and two federal coronavirus aid packages also helped promote investor optimism. Outside the U.S., economies recovered but at a slower pace. Virus outbreaks and slower vaccine rollouts led to lingering lockdowns in some regions.
Against this backdrop, inflation rose, but central banks remained supportive. In the U.S., where annual consumer inflation hit a 13-year high, the Federal Reserve (Fed) insisted temporary supply chain disruptions and other transient factors were at play. The Fed left interest rates unchanged but hinted it may start hiking rates in 2023, sooner than its previous timetable of 2024.
Despite ongoing pandemic-related challenges, including the emergence of the delta variant of COVID-19, stocks remained in favor and delivered strong 12-month returns. The U.S. generally outperformed other developed markets, as the S&P 500 Index returned more than 31%. Value stocks generally outperformed growth stocks, while small caps significantly outpaced large caps. The broad U.S. Treasury market declined, but credit-sensitive fixed-income securities, including corporate and municipal bonds, delivered gains.
Several Factors Shaping Market Dynamics
The return to pre-pandemic life is progressing, albeit somewhat cautiously due to the spread of the delta variant. As the economy and markets respond to this fluid backdrop, investors will face opportunities and ongoing challenges. Economic growth, inflation, the virus’s trajectory, supply chain normalization, and fiscal and monetary policy likely will sway market dynamics.
We appreciate your confidence in us during these extraordinary times. Our firm has a long history of helping clients weather unpredictable markets, and we’re confident we will continue to meet today’s challenges.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
President and Chief Executive Officer
American Century Investments

Fund Strategy
American Century Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF is an actively managed fund that seeks long-term capital growth. The portfolio managers look for stocks of medium-capitalization companies they believe will increase in value over time, using proprietary fundamental research. The initial research process begins by analyzing themes aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) to identify companies that generate, or could generate, social and environmental impact alongside a financial return. We make our investment decisions based primarily on our analysis of individual companies, rather than on broad economic forecasts. We generate an impact thesis to explain current or projected SDG alignment in combination with each security’s fundamental growth profile.
Performance Review
The fund returned 41.49% on a market price basis for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 41.78%. For the same time period, the Russell Midcap Growth Index, the fund’s benchmark, returned 35.17%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
Materials Led Outperformance
Stock selection in the chemicals industry helped drive performance in the materials sector. Albemarle, which provides lithium and other specialty chemicals, was a top contributor. The company performed well as the economy recovered, and it benefited from the long-term trend toward electric vehicles as lithium is a key element in battery production. Stock choices in the consumer discretionary sector also aided performance. Automobile equipment provider Aptiv was a key contributor, benefiting from increased content per vehicle for its advanced safety technology.
Other top contributors included Align Technology. The company makes 3D scanners and clear teeth-straightening aligners, and it reported better-than-expected revenue and earnings. We eliminated the holding. The payments company Square outperformed as its main businesses—small retailers and peer to peer—benefited from the stay-at-home restrictions. Coffee shops and restaurants have had to adjust to new business models, and individuals are increasingly using digital payments. These are secular trends that have been accelerated by the pandemic.
Keysight Technologies struggled during the worst of the pandemic slowdown but bounced back strongly as the economy rebooted. Its networking test equipment is benefiting from the rollout of 5G communications, and the company also benefits from other markets, such as automobiles.
Health Care Detracted
Stock selection in the health care sector weighed on relative performance. Key detractors included Moderna. The stock price of this biotechnology company outperformed after it reported that its COVID-19 vaccine worked well against the virus’s more contagious delta variant. Moderna’s messenger RNA technology is also seen as having potentially wider applications. Our lack of exposure detracted from relative results. Teladoc Health also lagged. The leader in virtual doctor visits prospered during the height of the pandemic but gave back gains as the country began to return to a more normal environment. We eliminated our position.
Other detractors included Splunk. We eliminated this security software stock because the company had execution problems as it moves from an on-premises to a cloud-based subscription service. Additionally, its sales force experienced some leadership changes.
Several portfolio holdings reported strong results but were victims of the market’s swing away from growth and toward value-oriented stocks in late 2020 and early 2021. Investors moved to cyclical stocks that were expected to benefit from the economic recovery and away from the high-growth
stocks that outperformed for most of 2020. RingCentral, a provider of cloud-based communications and collaboration software, lagged despite reporting better-than-anticipated revenue and earnings. We eliminated RingCentral. Dexcom, a manufacturer of glucose monitoring systems for diabetes management, underperformed on profit-taking after strong performance. The company’s monitoring system does away with finger sticking for blood samples.
Portfolio Positioning
Our process uses fundamental analysis aimed at identifying mid-capitalization companies producing attractive, sustainable earnings growth. We seek to reduce unintended, nonfundamental risks and align the portfolio with fundamental, company-specific risks that we believe will be rewarded over time. As a result of this approach, our sector and industry allocations reflect where we are finding opportunities at a given time. We have been positioning the portfolio for a post-COVID-19 world. As more normal activities resume, we see opportunities aligned with the SDGs in infrastructure build-out, e-commerce, entertainment and other industries across sectors.
A strategy that considers the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) criteria may limit the investment opportunities available to a portfolio. Therefore, the portfolio may underperform or perform differently than other portfolios that do not have an SDG investment focus. A portfolio’s SDG investment focus may also result in the portfolio investing in securities or industry sectors that perform differently or maintain a different risk profile than the market generally or compared to underlying holdings that are not screened for SDG standards.

Effective September 2021, Greg Woodhams stepped down as portfolio manager as he will retire from American Century Investments at the end of 2021.
Fund Strategy
American Century Sustainable Equity ETF is an actively managed fund that seeks long-term capital growth. We seek to invest in larger U.S. companies demonstrating both improving business fundamentals and sustainable corporate behaviors to deliver long-term financial returns and positive impacts to the environment, communities and corporate governance. As opposed to avoiding certain sectors entirely, we seek to invest in the most attractive companies within all sectors. A broad investment universe provides investors with both an attractive environmental, social and governance (ESG) profile and the potential for positive risk-adjusted returns over time. We construct our portfolio to intentionally acquire stock-specific risk aligned with our financial and sustainability research, while minimizing relative exposures related to sectors and common factor risks, such as market-capitalization size, volatility and momentum.
Performance Review
The fund returned 30.66% on a market price basis for its fiscal year ended August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 30.65%. For the same time period, the S&P 500 Index, the fund’s benchmark, returned 31.17%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
Materials Detracted
Stock selection in the chemicals industry helped drive underperformance in the materials sector. Air Products and Chemicals was a notable detractor as the company’s margins were impacted by higher input costs in the near term. We still have a favorable view on the company due to growth opportunities in carbon capture technologies and green hydrogen.
Stock choices in the health care sector also hampered performance. Amgen lagged after the biopharmaceutical company reported disappointing trial results for its drug to treat heart failure. Merck & Co. discontinued its pursuit of a COVID-19 vaccine following unfavorable results in early tests. The biopharmaceutical company reported disappointing revenue and earnings, which management attributed to weak drug sales due to the pandemic.
Other detractors included Lockheed Martin. Although the defense contractor reported solid earnings, investors worried about the potential for reduced defense spending under the Biden administration. An underweight position in Wells Fargo & Co. also detracted, as banks generally rose over the period on an improving economic outlook and loan growth. We eliminated Wells Fargo during the period. Our overweight positions in other financials such as Morgan Stanley and Bank of America more than offset the detraction from the Wells Fargo underweight.
Information Technology Was a Top Contributor
Stock selection among semiconductors and semiconductor equipment companies led performance in the information technology sector. ASML Holding, a Netherlands-based semiconductor capital equipment maker, delivered strong quarterly results, exceeding expectations in revenue, earnings and free cash. The company’s unique extreme ultraviolet lithography technology allows semiconductor manufacturers to produce smaller and more efficient chips, which are increasingly in demand and amplified by the current semiconductor shortage.
Elsewhere, Morgan Stanley’s stock was helped by improving sentiment for financials due to positive vaccine news, recovery hopes and strong consumer balance sheets. The acquisitions of E-Trade Financial and Eaton Vance are shifting the business toward more wealth and asset management, which we think should be beneficial. Aptiv, a maker of electronic automobile
components, outperformed as investors gave greater appreciation to the company’s long-term outlook in the face of global sustainability mandates, especially in the European Union. Aptiv benefits from higher electrical content in vehicles given its vehicle architecture platform. Johnson Controls International was a notable contributor as the company saw increased demand for its heating, ventilation and air conditioning components, which help provide cleaner air in buildings and greater energy efficiency.
Portfolio Positioning
Our process uses fundamental analysis aimed at identifying growing, large-capitalization companies demonstrating sustainable corporate behaviors. Rather than screen out certain industries or sectors, we seek to identify companies with the strongest fundamental growth and ESG characteristics in each sector. As a result of this approach, our sector and industry allocations reflect where we are finding opportunities at a given time.
Using our bottom-up analysis, we have found attractive positions in the internet and catalog retail, specialty retail, textiles, apparel and luxury goods and auto components industries that we believe to be ESG leaders relative to their peers. We have also found what we view as strong growth opportunities in information technology, where we have been able to invest in companies with attractive ESG profiles, including opportunities in the electronic equipment, instruments and components industry leads our positioning. We also like select companies in IT services.
A strategy or emphasis on environmental, social and governance factors (ESG) may limit the investment opportunities available to a portfolio. Therefore, the portfolio may underperform or perform differently than other portfolios that do not have an ESG investment focus. A portfolio’s ESG investment focus may also result in the portfolio investing in securities or industry sectors that perform differently or maintain a different risk profile than the market generally or compared to underlying holdings that are not screened for ESG standards.

Fund Strategy
American Century Sustainable Growth ETF is an actively managed fund that seeks capital appreciation.

Performance Review
The fund returned 7.52%* on a market price basis for the period from the fund’s inception on June 29, 2021, through the fund’s fiscal year-end on August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 7.52%. For the same time period, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, the fund’s benchmark, returned 6.92%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
Industrials and Communication Services Led Performance
Stock selection among road and rail companies led relative performance in the industrials sector. Stock decisions in the interactive media and services industry boosted the communication services sector. Alphabet, the parent company of Google, was a top industry performer, benefiting from strong digital advertising sales.
Elsewhere, ASML Holding, a Netherlands-based semiconductor capital equipment maker, delivered strong quarterly results, exceeding expectations in revenue, earnings and free cash. The company’s unique extreme ultraviolet lithography technology allows semiconductor manufacturers to produce smaller and more efficient chips, which are increasingly in demand and amplified by the current semiconductor shortage. Denmark-based pharmaceutical company Novo Nordisk reported better-than-expected quarterly earnings and raised guidance, helped by strong sales and demand for its obesity drug.
Not owning benchmark component Zoom Video Communications benefited relative performance. Zoom had outperformed during the work-from-home restrictions caused by the pandemic, but investors grew concerned about the long term as companies began to welcome workers back to the office. Microsoft reported strong revenue and earnings growth, and the stock also received a tailwind from large-capitalization software returning to favor.
Health Care Detracted
Stock selection in biotechnology weighed on performance in the health care sector. Underweighting Moderna was a key detractor. The biopharmaceutical company outperformed because of the success of its COVID-19 vaccine.
Other detractors included PayPal Holdings, which reported disappointing earnings largely due to declining eBay transactions. PayPal had outperformed leading up to the latest earnings report, and we think it will continue to benefit from increasing digital transactions. Enterprise software company Zendesk fell after management reported disappointing earnings. Video game developer Activision
*Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.
Blizzard lagged on concerns about release delays and China’s announced restrictions on children’s gaming time. We eliminated our holding.
Aptiv, a maker of electronic automobile components, underperformed on disappointing sales growth and earnings. We like the company’s long-term outlook based on global sustainability mandates, especially in the European Union, and from higher electrical content in vehicles given its vehicle architecture platform.

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2021 to August 31, 2021 (except as noted).
Actual Expenses
The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each fund. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the fund you own. Then 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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1)Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio listed in the table above, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184, the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, divided by 365, to reflect the one-half year period. Annualized expense ratio reflects actual expenses, including any applicable fee waivers or expense reimbursements and excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses.
(2)Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio listed in the table above, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 64, the number of days in the period from June 29, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021, divided by 365, to reflect the period. Had the fund been available for the full period, the expenses paid during the period would have been higher.

AUGUST 31, 2021
1. Organization
American Century ETF Trust (the trust) was registered as a Delaware statutory trust in 2017 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. American Century Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF (Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF), American Century Sustainable Equity ETF (Sustainable Equity ETF) and American Century Sustainable Growth ETF (Sustainable Growth ETF) (collectively, the funds) are three funds in a series issued by the trust. The investment objective for Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF and Sustainable Equity ETF is to seek long-term capital growth. Sustainable Growth ETF's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. Shares of each fund are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF and Sustainable Equity ETF incepted on July 13, 2020. Sustainable Growth ETF incepted on June 29, 2021.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the funds in preparation of their financial statements. Each fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.
Investment Valuations — The funds determine the fair value of their investments and compute their net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the funds' investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the funds' pricing function.
Equity securities that are listed or traded on a domestic securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price or at the official closing price as provided by the exchange. Equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges are generally valued at the closing price of such securities on the exchange where primarily traded or at the close of the NYSE, if that is earlier. If no last sales price is reported, or if local convention or regulation so provides, the mean of the latest bid and asked prices may be used. Securities traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price, or the official closing price.
Open-end management investment companies are valued at the reported NAV per share.
If the funds determine that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the funds may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the funds to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.
The funds monitor for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before each fund’s NAV per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region. The funds also monitor for significant fluctuations between domestic and foreign markets, as evidenced by the U.S. market or such other indicators that the Board of Trustees, or its delegate, deems appropriate. The funds may apply a model-derived factor to the closing price of equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges. The factor is based on observable market data as provided by an independent pricing service.
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.
Investment Income — Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or long-term capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The funds may estimate the components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable distributions or long-term capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums.
Income Tax Status — It is each fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The funds file U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The funds' tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are generally declared and paid quarterly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually.
Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.
3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties
Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM), and the trust’s administrator, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC. ACIM owns 34% and 89% of the shares of Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF and Sustainable Growth ETF, respectively. Related parties do not invest in the funds for the purpose of exercising management or control.
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee). The agreement provides that ACIM will pay all expenses of managing and operating the funds, except brokerage and other transaction fees and expenses relating to the acquisition and disposition of portfolio securities, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, litigation expenses and extraordinary expenses. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of each fund and paid monthly in arrears.
The annual management fee for each fund is as follows:
| | | | | |
| Annual Management Fee |
Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF | 0.45% |
Sustainable Equity ETF | 0.39% |
Sustainable Growth ETF | 0.39% |
4. Investment Transactions
Purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term investments and in kind transactions, for the period ended August 31, 2021 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF | Sustainable Equity ETF | Sustainable Growth ETF(1) |
Purchases | $5,725,982 | $29,713,560 | $400,215 |
Sales | $5,633,302 | $27,188,835 | $231,729 |
(1)June 29, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
Securities received or delivered in kind through subscriptions and redemptions and in kind net realized gain (loss) for the period ended August 31, 2021 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| In kind Subscriptions | In kind Redemptions | In kind Net Realized Gain/(Loss)* |
Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF | $12,916,376 | $1,851,868 | $408,579 |
Sustainable Equity ETF | $53,229,195 | $24,181,086 | $6,028,599 |
Sustainable Growth ETF(1) | $5,471,303 | — | — |
*Net realized gain (loss) on in kind transactions are not considered taxable for federal income tax purposes.
(1)June 29, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
5. Capital Share Transactions
Each fund’s shares may only be bought and sold in a secondary market through a broker-dealer at a market price. Because ETF shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (a premium) or less than NAV (a discount). Each fund issues and redeems shares at their NAV only in aggregations of a specified number of shares (a creation unit) generally in exchange for a designated portfolio of securities and/or cash (including any portion of such securities for which cash may be substituted). Authorized participants may be required to pay an additional variable charge to cover certain brokerage, tax, foreign exchange, execution, market impact and other costs and expenses related to the execution of trades resulting from creation unit transactions. Such variable charges, if any, are included in other capital within the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
6. Fair Value Measurements
The funds’ investment valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.
•Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.
•Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.
•Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).
The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments.
As of period end, the funds’ investment securities were classified as Level 1. The Schedules of Investments provide additional information on the funds’ portfolio holdings.
7. Risk Factors
The value of the funds’ shares will go up and down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, based on the performance of the securities owned by the funds and other factors generally affecting the securities market.
Market risks, including political, regulatory, economic and social developments, can affect the value of the funds’ investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies, terrorism and other unforeseeable events may lead to increased market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on world economies and markets generally.
8. Federal Tax Information
The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended August 31, 2021 and period ended August 31, 2020 (except as noted) were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2021 | 2020 |
| Distributions Paid From: | Distributions Paid From: |
| Ordinary Income | Long-term Capital Gains | Ordinary Income | Long-term Capital Gains |
Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF(1) | — | | — | | — | | — | |
Sustainable Equity ETF(1) | $ | 1,026,655 | | — | | — | | — | |
Sustainable Growth ETF(2) | — | | — | | N/A | N/A |
(1)July 13, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020.
(2)June 29, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.
The reclassifications, which are primarily due to in kind transactions, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF | Sustainable Equity ETF | Sustainable Growth ETF |
Capital paid in | $ | 402,864 | | $ | 6,026,244 | | — | |
Distributable earnings | $ | (402,864) | | $ | (6,026,244) | | — | |
As of period end, the components of investments for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF | Sustainable Equity ETF | Sustainable Growth ETF |
Federal tax cost of investments | $ | 17,658,692 | | $ | 115,618,247 | | $ | 5,641,805 | |
Gross tax appreciation of investments | $ | 4,488,515 | | $ | 35,291,122 | | $ | 439,898 | |
Gross tax depreciation of investments | (46,191) | | (569,995) | | (39,688) | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments | $ | 4,442,324 | | $ | 34,721,127 | | $ | 400,210 | |
Undistributed ordinary income | — | | $ | 202,151 | | $ | 1,272 | |
Accumulated short-term capital losses | $ | (196,308) | | $ | (302,472) | | $ | (9,098) | |
Accumulated long-term capital losses | — | | $ | (4,166) | | — | |
Late-year ordinary loss deferral | $ | (20,159) | | — | | — | |
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The capital loss carryovers may be carried forward for an unlimited period. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations.
Loss deferrals represent certain qualified losses that the fund has elected to treat as having been incurred in
the following fiscal year for federal income tax purposes.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of American Century ETF Trust:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of American Century Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF, American Century Sustainable Equity ETF, and American Century Sustainable Growth ETF (the “Funds”), three of the funds constituting the American Century ETF Trust, as of August 31, 2021, the related statements of operations, the statements of changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods indicated in the table below; and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting American Century ETF Trust as of August 31, 2021, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods listed in the table below, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

American Century Sustainable Growth ETF | For the period June 29, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021 |
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights 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 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

The Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office. The board has adopted a mandatory retirement age for trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act (independent trustees). Trustees who are not also officers of the trust shall retire by December 31st of the year in which they reach their 75th birthday.

They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The following trustees also serve in this capacity for a number of other registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds: Jonathan S. Thomas, 15; Ronald J. Gilson, 8; and Stephen E. Yates, 7.

Approval of Management Agreement |
American Century Sustainable Growth ETF
At a meeting held on June 3, 2021, the Funds’ Board of Trustees unanimously approved the initial management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for the American Century Sustainable Growth ETF (the "New Fund"). Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, new contracts for investment advisory services are required to be approved by a majority of a fund’s independent trustees and to be evaluated on an annual basis thereafter.
In advance of the Board’s consideration, the Advisor provided information concerning the New Fund. The materials circulated and the discussions held detailed the investment objective and strategy proposed to be utilized by the Advisor, the New Fund's characteristics and key attributes, the rationale for launching the New Fund, the experience of the staff designated to manage the New Fund, the proposed pricing, and the markets in which the New Fund would be sold. The information considered and the discussions held included, but were not limited to:
•the nature, extent, and quality of investment management and other services to be provided to the New Fund;
•the wide range of other programs and services the Advisor would provide to the New Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
•the New Fund’s proposed investment objective and strategy, including a discussion of its anticipated investment performance and proposed benchmark;
•the cost of owning the New Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
•the Advisor’s compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience; and
•any collateral benefits derived by the Advisor from the management of the New Fund.
Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider and comparing the New Fund’s fee to the total expense ratio of expected peer funds. The annual management fees charged to shareholders of the New Fund were anticipated to be below the median of the total expense ratios of their respective peer universe.
When considering the approval of the management agreement for the New Fund, the independent Trustees considered the entrepreneurial risk that the Advisor assumes in launching a new fund. In particular, they considered the fact that the Advisor will assume a substantial part of the start-up costs of the New Fund and the risk that the New Fund will not grow to a level that will become profitable to the Advisor. The Board considered the position that the New Fund would take in the lineup of the American Century Investments’ family of funds and the benefits to shareholders of existing funds of the broadened product offering. Finally, while not specifically discussed, but important in the decision to approve the management agreement, is the Trustees’ familiarity with the Advisor. A majority of the Board oversees and evaluates on a continuous basis the nature and quality of all services the Advisor performs for other funds within the American Century Investments’ complex. As such, the Trustees have confidence in the Advisor’s integrity and competence in providing services to the New Fund.
The independent Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor and the independent Trustees’ independent counsel in connection with the approval, and evaluated such information for the New Fund. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. The independent Trustees concluded that the overall arrangements between the New Fund and the Advisor, as provided in the management agreement, were fair and reasonable in light of the services to be provided and should be approved.
American Century Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF
American Century Sustainable Equity ETF
At a meeting held on June 3, 2021, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the "Board") unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for American Century Mid Cap Growth ETF and American Century Sustainable Equity ETF (collectively the "Existing Funds"). Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s trustees (the “Trustees”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year.
Prior to its consideration of the management agreement, the Trustees requested and reviewed extensive data and information compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Existing Funds and the services provided to each Fund by the Advisor. This review was in addition to the oversight and evaluation undertaken by the Board and its Audit Committee on a continual basis and the information received was supplemental to the extensive information that the Board and its Audit Committee receive and consider throughout the year.
In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:
•the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided and to be provided to each Fund including without limitation portfolio management and trading services, shareholder and intermediary services, compliance and legal services, fund accounting and financial reporting, and fund share distribution;
•the wide range of other programs and services provided and to be provided to each Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
•the investment performance of each Fund, including data comparing each Fund's performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
•the cost of owning each Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
•the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience of the Advisor and the Existing Funds’ service providers;
•the Advisor’s strategic plans, COVID-19 pandemic response, vendor management practices, and social justice initiatives;
•the Advisor’s business continuity plans and cyber security practices;
•financial data showing the cost of services provided to each Fund, the profitability of each Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
•information regarding payments to intermediaries by the Advisor;
•possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of each Fund; and
•possible collateral benefits to the Advisor from the management of the Existing Funds.
The independent Trustees met separately in private session to discuss the renewal and to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also held active discussions with the Advisor regarding the renewal of the management agreement. The independent Trustees had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.
Factors Considered
The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and independent counsel in connection with the approval. They determined that the information was sufficient for them to evaluate the management agreement for the Existing Funds. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including without limitation the following:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services — Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of each Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services which include the following:
•constructing and designing each Fund
•portfolio research and security selection
•initial capitalization/funding
•securities trading
•Fund administration
•custody of Fund assets
•daily valuation of each Fund’s portfolio
•liquidity monitoring and management
•risk management, including cyber security
•shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
•legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
•regulatory and portfolio compliance
•financial reporting
•marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by each Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)
Investment Management Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Existing Funds is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage each Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to monitor trading activities, and in particular to seek the best execution of fund trades, and to evaluate the use of and payment for research. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board provides oversight of the investment performance process. It regularly reviews investment performance information for each Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks over different time horizons. The Trustees also review investment performance information during the management agreement renewal process. If performance concerns are identified, the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The performance for American Century Mid Cap Growth Impact ETF was above its benchmark, and performance for American Century Sustainable Equity ETF was below its benchmark for the periods reviewed by the Board. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Existing Funds to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.
Shareholder and Other Services. Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges for a comprehensive package of services to the Existing Funds. The Board, directly and through its Audit Committee, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction, technology support (including cyber security), new
products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to each Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Existing Funds, its profitability in managing each Fund (pre- and post-distribution), its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Existing Funds.
Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to the Existing Funds and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.
Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of each Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is sharing economies of scale, to the extent they exist, through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business, infrastructure, investment capabilities and initiatives to provide shareholders additional content and services.
Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that each Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Existing Fund, other than brokerage expenses, expenses attributable to short sales, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Existing Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider comparing the Existing Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratios of its peers. The unified fee charged to shareholders of each Fund was below the median of the total expense ratios of their respective peer expense universe and was the lowest of their respective peer expense group. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by each Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Existing Funds.
Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to funds or other advisory clients managed similarly to the Existing Funds. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Existing Funds. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Existing Funds were reasonable by comparison.
Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by each Fund and the Advisor and services provided in response thereto. These payments could include various payments made by each Fund or the Advisor to
different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for each Fund. The Trustees reviewed such information and received representations from the Advisor that all such payments by the Advisor were made from the Advisor’s resources and reasonable profits. The Board found such payments to be reasonable in scope and purpose.
Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the possible existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Existing Funds. They concluded that the Advisor’s primary business is managing funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that additional assets from other clients may offer the Advisor some benefit from increased leverage with service providers and counterparties. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Existing Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Board concluded that appropriate allocation methodologies had been employed to assign resources and the cost of those resources to these other clients
Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Existing Funds’ operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in each Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to each Fund.
Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, determined that the management fee is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and that the investment management agreement between the Existing Funds and the Advisor should be renewed.

Liquidity Risk Management Program |
The Funds have adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Funds' Board of Trustees (the "Board") has designated American Century Investment Management, Inc. (“ACIM”) as the administrator of the program. Personnel of ACIM or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program pursuant to policies and procedures administered by those members of the ACIM’s Investment Oversight Committee who are members of the ACIM’s Investment Management and Global Analytics departments.
Under the program, ACIM manages the Funds' liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Funds. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments, limiting the amount of the Funds' illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to the Funds for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. ACIM’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The Board reviewed a report prepared by ACIM regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, ACIM provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing the Funds' liquidity risk.
Retirement Account Information
As required by law, distributions you receive from certain retirement accounts are subject to federal income tax withholding, unless you elect not to have withholding apply*. Tax will be withheld on the total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case, excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.
Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect not to have income tax withheld or you don’t have enough income tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. You can reduce or defer the income tax on a distribution by directly or indirectly rolling such distribution over to another IRA or eligible plan. You should consult your tax advisor for additional information.
State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income tax withheld (or as otherwise required by state law). State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in accordance with the respective state rules.
*Some 403(b), 457 and qualified retirement plan distributions may be subject to 20% mandatory withholding, as they are subject to special tax and withholding rules.

These programs helped sustain investor confidence and bolster the economic landscape, despite ongoing challenges from COVID-19 and the inconsistent lifting of virus-related restrictions.
In general, data on U.S. manufacturing, employment, housing and corporate earnings were upbeat. Additionally, expanding COVID-19 vaccine availability and two federal coronavirus aid packages also helped promote investor optimism. Outside the U.S., economies recovered but at a slower pace. Virus outbreaks and slower vaccine rollouts led to lingering lockdowns in some regions.
Against this backdrop, inflation rose, but central banks remained supportive. In the U.S., where annual consumer inflation hit a 13-year high, the Federal Reserve (Fed) insisted temporary supply chain disruptions and other transient factors were at play. The Fed left interest rates unchanged but hinted it may start hiking rates in 2023, sooner than its previous timetable of 2024.
Despite ongoing pandemic-related challenges, including the emergence of the delta variant of COVID-19, stocks remained in favor and delivered strong 12-month returns. The U.S. generally outperformed other developed markets, as the S&P 500 Index returned more than 31%. Value stocks generally outperformed growth stocks, while small caps significantly outpaced large caps. The broad U.S. Treasury market declined, but credit-sensitive fixed-income securities, including corporate and municipal bonds, delivered gains.
Several Factors Shaping Market Dynamics
The return to pre-pandemic life is progressing, albeit somewhat cautiously due to the spread of the delta variant. As the economy and markets respond to this fluid backdrop, investors will face opportunities and ongoing challenges. Economic growth, inflation, the virus’s trajectory, supply chain normalization, and fiscal and monetary policy likely will sway market dynamics.
We appreciate your confidence in us during these extraordinary times. Our firm has a long history of helping clients weather unpredictable markets, and we’re confident we will continue to meet today’s challenges.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
President and Chief Executive Officer

Fund Strategy
American Century Low Volatility ETF is an actively managed fund that seeks to deliver long-term market returns while realizing less volatility, particularly in downturns. We seek to achieve the long-term growth of equities, while minimizing the variability of returns by emphasizing strong fundamentals to limit potential risk of speculative companies with questionable profits. We utilize proprietary models to screen and rank companies based on fundamental metrics typically derived from financial statement data and market information but may include other sources. The fund seeks to deliver a lower realized portfolio volatility than its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, by utilizing a stock selection process that expands on traditional measures of price volatility by including measures of asymmetric (e.g., downside) volatility and seeking securities of businesses that demonstrate consistent cash flows, stable operations and strong balance sheets.
Performance Review
The fund returned 20.28%* on a market price basis in the period from the fund’s January 12, 2021, inception through August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 20.26%. For the same time period, the S&P 500 Index, the fund’s benchmark, returned 20.07%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
Consumer Discretionary Benefited Relative Performance
The key contribution to performance compared with the benchmark came from having no exposure to electric car maker Tesla. The stock is very volatile and is unappealing based on our multipronged approach to limiting volatility. That benefited relative performance during the abbreviated reporting period as the stock declined sharply. Positioning in the multiline retail, hotels, restaurants and leisure and internet and marketing retail industries also contributed to relative performance.
Several information technology holdings were top contributors. Positioning in the IT services industry contributed most to relative performance, led by stakes in Accenture and EPAM Systems. Financial management software company Intuit was the leading individual contributor to relative results in the sector. The company benefited from recent acquisitions and strong customer growth, resulting in revenue and earnings growth that were significantly better than expected.
Other notable individual contributions came from real estate investment trust Public Storage and animal health care company Zoetis. Public Storage improved revenue per square foot and grew its square footage under management through new construction and acquisitions. Zoetis reported rising demand for its products and raised its outlook.
Financials, Consumer Staples Weighed on Relative Performance
Stock choices and an underweight allocation meant financials stocks detracted the most from relative performance. Asset manager SEI Investments was the leading detractor in the sector. Revenues and assets under management rose, but higher costs meant profits disappointed. We exited the stock. Positioning in consumer staples also detracted from relative returns, led by household products company Procter & Gamble. The company reported solid results but warned that higher input and transportation costs could impact margins going forward.
*Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.
Other Detractors
Biotechnology company Amgen was a significant individual detractor. The company reported mixed results for some of its leading drugs and lowered future earnings guidance. A stake in health care provider Chemed detracted from relative performance. The company reported strong fundamental results in 2020, and the stock surged to all-time highs but was subject to profit-taking and gave back gains. We exited the position. Automotive parts maker Gentex was another notable detractor. Parts supply disruption in the larger automobiles industry weighed on manufacturing activity and slowed demand for the company’s products.
Portfolio Positioning
We manage the portfolio by allocating to one or more investment sleeves: Stand-alone strategies designed to generate alpha from distinct market segments. Each sleeve emphasizes domain-specific, fundamental drivers of investment performance, validated through empirical research. In contrast with more naïve approaches, which typically rely on only a single, backward-looking measure of risk, the low-volatility strategy utilizes a three-pronged approach focused specifically on downside volatility. The approach incorporates fundamental business risks (balance sheet and earnings quality), trailing stock volatility measures (downside beta) and traditional risk measures (price volatility). As a result of this process, our largest overweight positions at period-end were in the industrials and financials sectors. We also maintained sizable absolute weighting in the information technology sector, reflecting this segments representation in the index. The communication services, real estate and consumer staples sectors remain our largest underweights.

Fund Strategy
American Century Quality Convertible Securities ETF seeks to offer enhanced return potential versus passive capitalization-weighted convertible bond portfolios. The fund seeks to capitalize on the deficiencies inherent in passive indices, which ignore various fundamental and market risks, to deliver potential outperformance and mitigation of downside risk.
We employ a holistic approach, emphasizing high-quality, growth-oriented names through a series of quantitative screens and fundamental oversight. We enhance the investment process via fundamental and technical measures. These include sales or earnings growth, profitability, leverage, balance sheet strength, price momentum relative to peers and valuation and yield relative to other convertible securities.
We seek to integrate fundamental and quantitative analysis to develop a portfolio with an optimal balance between risk and return. We consider each portfolio security’s fundamental scores, structural features, benchmark weight and equity sensitivity.
The fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that combines quantitative and fundamental insights implemented with ETF portfolio management expertise to seek maximum tax efficiency. The fund actively manages beta exposure, seeking an optimal mix of bond- and equity-sensitive securities. We have the flexibility to act in response to corporate actions, market dislocations and changes to regulatory, tax and monetary policy and other macro considerations.
Market Overview
Through most of 2021, ongoing fiscal and monetary support, improving global economic data and record corporate earnings bolstered equity markets. In addition, improving vaccination rates continued to support the reopening theme. Meanwhile, economic gains, surging commodity prices, pent-up demand, global supply chain disruptions and improving employment drove inflation higher.
Longer-maturity Treasury yields rose precipitously in early 2021, and the yield curve steepened. However, the rapid spread of COVID-19’s delta variant disrupted plans to lift lockdowns in many countries. Treasury yields declined, even as inflation rose, while equity markets continued to climb. A slightly hawkish tone from the Federal Reserve (Fed) in June caused the benchmark 10-year Treasury yield to rise through the end of August. But Fed Board Chair Jerome Powell’s comments about a near-term continuation of monetary support spurred equities higher.
For the first eight months of 2021, the value style generally outpaced growth. However, late in the period, growth returned to favor. Longer-term inflation concerns abated somewhat, and the reopening trade that had favored value and cyclical names subsided amid the delta variant’s surge.
Performance Review
American Century Quality Convertible Securities ETF returned -3.23%* on a market price basis for the period from the fund’s inception on February 16, 2021, through August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned -3.03%. For the same time period, the ICE BofA Convertible Index, the fund’s benchmark index, returned -2.03%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
*Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.
Growth Sectors Weighed on Performance
The convertibles market faced headwinds during the reporting period. Growth sectors, which comprise the heaviest weightings in the benchmark, declined. Meanwhile, cyclical and defensive sectors, which have substantially less exposure in the index, advanced.
In line with the market, the fund’s positions in the technology, telecommunications and consumer discretionary sectors were the largest detractors from performance, as investors favored cyclical sectors. We mitigated losses by reducing exposure to the most equity-sensitive securities in favor of positions with less market sensitivity. Additionally, within the technology sector, positions in issuers with stronger profitability and revenue profiles, such as Broadcom, DocuSign and Palo Alto Networks, were strong outperformers.
The fund had limited exposure in the energy and materials sectors, due to the lack of quality issuers with strong balance sheets and profitability. This positioning detracted from relative results, as it prevented the fund from participating in the broader rally those sectors experienced.
Conversely, our security selection in quality health care issuers, particularly Danaher and Avantor, contributed to performance. Tactical consumer discretionary positions, including Dick’s Sporting Goods, which we selected to take advantage of the economic recovery, also aided performance.
Portfolio Positioning
So far, 2021 has been a year of remarkable earnings resilience, which has supported the dramatic market rally. Earnings in only a few industries, including airlines, hotels, energy and select industrials, have not yet surpassed pre-pandemic levels.
Some data suggest the economy has passed peak growth and is poised to slow. Corporate earnings could begin to plateau from their record pace. Or, more optimistically, earnings may maintain their current positive trends, given the unprecedented fiscal and monetary support. In a positive but decelerating growth scenario, the market likely would favor higher-quality growth characteristics, highlighting the potential benefits of stocks exhibiting positive earnings momentum.
Nevertheless, equity markets are at or near all-time highs, and some valuations remain concerning. As fiscal and monetary support begins to wane and inflationary pressures prompt tighter monetary policy, we expect risk assets will face increased volatility. Additionally, other potential sources of volatility and sector and factor rotation include the delta variant, renewed lockdowns and policy shifts and regulatory crackdowns in China.
The fund’s equity sensitivity remains balanced, with exposure to potential equity appreciation, while focusing on quality issuers with profitable business and positive earnings momentum. We will actively manage our convertibles exposure to retain upside potential as the economy remains strong. We also will focus on risk management, seeking to preserve the portfolio’s resilience through potential market dislocations.

Fund Strategy
American Century Quality Diversified International ETF seeks to deliver investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the Alpha Vee American Century Diversified International Equity Index (the underlying index). The fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the underlying index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the underlying index. Under normal market conditions, the fund invests at least 80% of its assets, exclusive of collateral held from securities lending, in the component securities of the underlying index.
The underlying index is designed to select securities with attractive growth, valuation and quality fundamentals. The universe of the index is comprised of large- and mid-capitalization (mid-cap) equity securities of global issuers in developed and emerging markets, excluding the U.S.
Performance Review
For the 12 months ended August 31, 2021, the fund returned 25.14% on a market price basis. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 25.04%. For the same time period, the underlying index returned 25.66%. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
Non-U.S. equities, as measured by the MSCI World ex-U.S. Index* (world index), advanced during the reporting period. The world index, which is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of large- and mid-cap non-U.S. equities, returned 26.57%. The fund’s underperformance versus the world index was largely due to the different compositions of the fund and the world index. The fund tracks the Alpha Vee American Century Diversified International Equity Index, which is designed to distinguish between high-quality value and growth companies, primarily in developed markets, and dynamically allocates to each category depending on the market environment.
Broadly speaking, the consumer staples and financials sectors detracted from performance versus the world index, as did the health care, materials and communication services sectors. Conversely, industrials holdings boosted relative performance, with additional contribution from the consumer discretionary, utilities, information technology and energy sectors. Within consumer staples, pandemic beneficiaries such as grocery store stocks declined as investors shifted toward stocks expected to benefit from economic reopening. Among financials, an underweight position in banks weighed on relative performance as bank stocks rallied amid rising interest rates and investors’ expectations for higher net interest margins—a key measure of bank profitability—and improved loan growth.
On the upside, industrials holdings buoyed relative performance, particularly machinery stocks as manufacturers benefited from strong demand for goods amid the global economic recovery. Consumer discretionary stocks also contributed, supported by pent-up demand for luxury goods, especially among consumers in China.
Although dynamic allocation tilted toward growth at the beginning and end of the reporting period, significant shifts occurred. Growth and value each attained the maximum allocation level at times during the 12-month period amid substantial market rotations between the two styles. The fund’s allocation ended the reporting period with an approximately 68% allocation to growth and 32% allocation to value. Allocations are rebalanced monthly, based on a strategy informed by recent risk-adjusted performance.
*The MSCI World ex-U.S. Index returns for the one-year and since-inception periods ended August 31, 2021, were 26.57% and 10.21%, respectively.

Quality Focus Detracted from Relative Results
The U.S. preferred market benefited from a strong equity market, range-bound long-maturity interest rates and healthy investor flows. With global yields hovering at historically low levels, investors favored preferred securities and other income-producing investments.
Our smaller allocation to convertible preferreds versus the index primarily accounted for the fund’s relative underperformance. Many convertible preferreds possess equity-like volatility and tend to outperform during risk-on periods. However, due to our focus on quality, we generally underweight such securities.
Technology was the fund’s only sector-level detractor, largely due to our convertible preferred position in Sabre, a provider of solutions for the travel and tourism industry. The company experienced heavy selling pressure in May after reporting wider-than-expected losses, and it later struggled to recover as global virus cases surged. We exited the position.
Security selection in the industrials and energy sectors aided relative performance and partially offset weaker security selection in the technology and materials sectors. Our positions in the financials sector, the fund’s largest weighting, also contributed to performance. Within the allocation, banks were top contributors. Banks, which are the largest issuers of preferred securities, exhibited strong improvements in earnings, credit quality and capital markets activity. Amid improving economic outlooks and stronger consumer balance sheets, banks also released substantial loan-loss reserves they had established in 2020 in response to the pandemic.
In addition, holdings in the capital markets, mortgage real estate investment trusts and insurance industries also contributed. At the holdings level, our convertible preferred in Danaher, a health care equipment manufacturer, was the largest contributor. The company’s diversified product line includes COVID-19 diagnostic tests, which experienced increased demand fueled by the delta variant.
Portfolio Positioning
So far, 2021 has been a year of remarkable earnings resilience, which has supported the dramatic market rally. Earnings in only a few industries, including airlines, hotels, energy and select industrials, have not yet surpassed pre-pandemic levels.
Some data suggest the economy has passed peak growth and is poised to slow. Corporate earnings could begin to plateau from their record pace. Or, more optimistically, earnings may maintain their current positive trends, given the unprecedented fiscal and monetary support. In a positive but decelerating growth scenario, the market likely would favor higher-quality growth characteristics, highlighting the potential benefits of stocks exhibiting positive earnings momentum.
Nevertheless, equity markets are at or near all-time highs, and some valuations remain concerning. As fiscal and monetary support begins to wane and inflationary pressures prompt tighter monetary policy, we expect risk assets will face increased volatility. Additionally, other potential sources of volatility and sector and factor rotation include the delta variant, renewed lockdowns and policy shifts and regulatory crackdowns in China.
As interest rates ultimately rise, we believe the preferreds market, with its significant exposure to the financials sector, should benefit from higher yields and steeper yield curves. We will continue to actively manage the fund to retain upside potential with a dual focus on quality and stable income. We also will emphasize risk management, seeking to preserve the portfolio’s resilience through potential market dislocations.

Fund Strategy
American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the iSTOXX® American Century USA Quality Growth Index (the underlying index). Under normal market conditions, the fund invests at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of the underlying index.
The STOXX® USA 900 Index, which consists of the 900 largest publicly traded U.S. equity securities, defines the universe we use to create the underlying index. The index is designed to measure the performance of securities in the universe and identify those that exhibit higher growth and quality characteristics relative to their peers. Though component securities of the underlying index may change from time to time, the index typically consists of 150 to 250 securities.
Performance Review
The fund returned 34.99% on a market price basis for the 12 months ended August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 35.20%. For the same time period, the underlying index returned 36.05%. The fund fully replicated the underlying index’s components during the reporting period. The fund’s NAV and market price performance differed from the underlying index’s return due to fees and operating expenses associated with the fund.
For the same time period, the fund outperformed market-capitalization-weighted growth strategies, as measured by the Russell 1000 Growth Index* (growth index). The growth index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of U.S. large-capitalization growth stocks. The fund’s outperformance versus the growth index was largely due to the different compositions of the fund and the growth index. Specifically, the fund tracks the underlying index, which is designed to identify securities within the investment universe that exhibit higher growth and quality characteristics as well as securities that offer high-quality growth with attractive profitability and valuation relative to their peers. This approach led to outperformance versus the growth index, which selects and weights growth stocks based on market capitalization.
From a broad perspective, stock selection in the information technology, consumer discretionary and financials sectors contributed to outperformance versus the growth index. Within information technology, an overweight allocation to semiconductors and semiconductor equipment stocks was helpful as the industry benefited from rising demand for chips amid limited supply. Stock choices in the health care, communication services and consumer staples sectors detracted. Underweighting communication services also hampered relative performance.
The fund’s allocation began and closed the fiscal year with a bias toward high growth with a 65% weight in high growth and 35% weight in stable growth. However, during the year the fund’s allocations were tilted more toward stable growth, on average. Allocations are rebalanced monthly, based on a strategy informed by recent risk-adjusted performance.
*The Russell 1000 Growth Index returns for the one-year and since-inception periods ended August 31, 2021, were 28.53% and 25.40%, respectively.

Fund Strategy
American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF seeks to track the investment results (before fees and expenses) of the iSTOXX® American Century USA Quality Value Index (the underlying index). Under normal market conditions, the fund invests at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of the underlying index.
The STOXX® USA 900 Index, which consists of the 900 largest publicly traded U.S. equity securities, defines the universe we use to create the underlying index. From that universe, we use a rules-based methodology that screens and weights stocks based on fundamental measures of quality, value and income. The resulting underlying index is designed to include high-quality securities of large- and mid-capitalization companies that are undervalued or have sustainable income. Although component securities of the underlying index may change from time to time, the index typically consists of 200 to 300 securities.
Performance Review
The fund returned 36.00% on a market price basis for the 12-month period ended August 31, 2021. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 36.16%. For the same time period, the underlying index returned 36.76%. The fund fully replicated the underlying index’s components during the reporting period. The fund’s NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
For the same time period, the Russell 1000 Value Index* (value index), a market-capitalization index, returned 36.44%. The value index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of U.S. large-cap value stocks. The fund’s performance versus the value index was largely attributable to the different compositions of the fund and the value index. Specifically, the fund tracks the underlying index, which pursues risk-adjusted returns by dynamically allocating among high-quality, attractively valued companies and companies offering sustainable income. We think it is worth noting that over the course of the year, the fund was less volatile than the index, as measured by standard deviation of monthly returns. The fund’s volatility was 13.92% versus 15.30% for the index.
From a broad perspective, the fund’s financials underweight, especially among banks and consumer finance stocks, detracted from performance relative to the value index. Overweight allocations to consumer staples and health care also hampered relative performance. Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector benefited performance, led by choices among specialty retailers. An overweight allocation to the industry was also helpful. Stock decisions in the real estate and materials sectors were beneficial as well.
The fund’s allocation closed the 12-month period with an 80% allocation to value and a 20% allocation to income. Over the course of the year, the allocation to value was as high as 80% and as low as 50%. Allocations are rebalanced monthly, based on a strategy informed by recent risk-adjusted performance.
*The Russell 1000 Value Index return for the since-inception period ended August 31, 2021, was 9.63%.

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2021 to August 31, 2021.
Actual Expenses
The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each fund. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the fund you own. Then 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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1)Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio listed in the table above, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184, the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, divided by 365, to reflect the one-half year period. Annualized expense ratio reflects actual expenses, including any applicable fee waivers or expense reimbursements and excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the funds in preparation of their financial statements. Each fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.
Investment Valuations — The funds determine the fair value of their investments and compute their net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the funds' investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the funds' pricing function.
Equity securities that are listed or traded on a domestic securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price or at the official closing price as provided by the exchange. Equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges are generally valued at the closing price of such securities on the exchange where primarily traded or at the close of the NYSE, if that is earlier. If no last sales price is reported, or if local convention or regulation so provides, the mean of the latest bid and asked prices may be used. Securities traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price, or the official closing price. Equity securities initially expressed in local currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the appropriate currency exchange rate at the close of the NYSE as provided by an independent pricing service.
Fixed income securities are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Convertible bonds are valued using market models that consider trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information.
Hybrid securities are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Preferred stocks and convertible preferred stocks with perpetual maturities are valued using market models that consider trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information.
Open-end management investment companies are valued at the reported NAV per share.
If the funds determine that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the funds may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the funds to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.
The funds monitor for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before each fund’s NAV per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region. The funds also monitor for significant fluctuations between domestic and foreign markets, as evidenced by the U.S. market or such other indicators that the Board of Trustees, or its delegate, deems appropriate. The funds may apply a model-derived factor to the closing price of equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges. The factor is based on observable market data as provided by an independent pricing service.
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.
Investment Income — Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or long-term capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The funds may estimate the components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable distributions or long-term capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. For convertible bonds, the premiums attributable only to the debt instrument are amortized.
Foreign Currency Translations — All assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at prevailing exchange rates at period end. The funds may enter into spot foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions denominated in a foreign currency. Purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income, spot foreign currency exchange contracts, and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses related to investment securities are a component of net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, respectively.
Income Tax Status — It is each fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The funds file U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The funds' tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are generally declared and paid monthly for Quality Convertible Securities ETF and Quality Preferred ETF. Distributions from net investment income, if any, are generally declared and paid quarterly for Low Volatility ETF, STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF and STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF. Distributions from net investment income, if any, are generally declared and paid semiannually for Quality Diversified International ETF. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually for all funds.
Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.
3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties
Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM), and the trust’s administrator, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC. Various funds issued by American Century Strategic Asset Allocations, Inc. own, in aggregate, 36%, 39% and 62% of the shares of Quality Diversified International ETF, STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF and STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF, respectively. ACIM owns 74% of the shares of Low Volatility ETF. Related parties do not invest in the funds for the purpose of exercising management or control.
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee). The agreement provides that ACIM will pay all expenses of managing and operating the funds, except brokerage and other transaction fees and expenses relating to the acquisition and disposition of portfolio securities, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, litigation expenses and extraordinary expenses. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of each fund and paid monthly in arrears.
The annual management fee for each fund is as follows:
| | | | | |
| Annual Management Fee |
Low Volatility ETF | 0.29% |
Quality Convertible Securities ETF | 0.32% |
Quality Diversified International ETF | 0.39% |
Quality Preferred ETF | 0.32% |
STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF | 0.29% |
STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF | 0.29% |
Interfund Transactions — The funds may enter into security transactions with other American Century Investments funds and other client accounts of the investment advisor, in accordance with the 1940 Act rules and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The rules and procedures require, among other things, that these transactions be effected at the independent current market price of the security. There were no interfund transactions during the period.

(2)February 16, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
5. Capital Share Transactions
Each fund’s shares may only be bought and sold in a secondary market through a broker-dealer at a market price. Because ETF shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (a premium) or less than NAV (a discount). Each fund issues and redeems shares at their NAV only in aggregations of a specified number of shares (a creation unit) generally in exchange for a designated portfolio of securities and/or cash (including any portion of such securities for which cash may be substituted). Authorized participants may be required to pay an additional variable charge to cover certain brokerage, tax, foreign exchange, execution, market impact and other costs and expenses related to the execution of trades resulting from creation unit transactions. Such variable charges, if any, are included in other capital within the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
6. Fair Value Measurements
The funds’ investment valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.
•Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.
•Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.
•Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).

7. Risk Factors
The value of the funds’ shares will go up and down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, based on the performance of the securities owned by the funds and other factors generally affecting the securities market. Market risks, including political, regulatory, economic and social developments, can affect the value of the funds’ investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies, terrorism and other unforeseeable events may lead to increased market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on world economies and markets generally.
Quality Diversified International ETF, STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF and STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF are not actively managed and do not attempt to take defensive positions under any market conditions, including declining markets. Therefore, the funds generally will not buy or sell securities unless they are added or removed from their respective indexes, even if the security is underperforming. If the funds' respective indexes have high portfolio turnover, the funds may also have high portfolio turnover.
A fund’s investment process may result in high portfolio turnover, which could mean high transaction costs, affecting both performance and capital gains tax liabilities to investors.
There are certain risks involved in investing in foreign securities. These risks include those resulting from political events (such as civil unrest, national elections and imposition of exchange controls), social and economic events (such as labor strikes and rising inflation), and natural disasters. Securities of foreign issuers may be less liquid and more volatile. Investing in emerging markets or a significant portion of assets in one country or region may accentuate these risks.
8. Federal Tax Information
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2021 (except as noted) and August 31, 2020 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2021 | 2020 |

Quality Convertible Securities ETF(2) | $ | 104,616 | | — | | N/A | N/A |
Quality Diversified International ETF | $ | 3,209,185 | | — | | $ | 1,315,435 | | — | |

(1)January 12, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
(2)February 16, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.
The reclassifications, which are primarily due to in kind transactions, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Low Volatility ETF | Quality Convertible Securities ETF | Quality Diversified International ETF | Quality Preferred ETF | STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF | STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF |
Capital paid in | $ | 182,602 | | — | $12,608,386 | $ | 149,433 | | $ | 71,661,734 | | $ | 29,233,539 | |

Gross tax depreciation of investments | (40,530) | | (1,126,245) | | (673,402) | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments | $ | 433,946 | | $ | 32,518,600 | | $ | 32,298,883 | |

Accumulated short-term capital losses | $ | (1,044) | | $ | (5,715,526) | | $ | (10,611,978) | |
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and to the timing and recognition of partnership income.
Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The capital loss carryovers may be carried forward for an unlimited period. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of American Century ETF Trust:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of American Century Low Volatility ETF, American Century Quality Convertible Securities ETF, American Century Quality Diversified International ETF, American Century Quality Preferred ETF, American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF, and American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF (the “Funds”), six of the funds constituting the American Century ETF Trust, as of August 31, 2021, the related statements of operations, statements of changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods indicated in the table below; and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting American Century ETF Trust as of August 31, 2021, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods listed in the table below, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights 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 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more American Century investment companies since 1997.
The Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office. The board has adopted a mandatory retirement age for trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act (independent trustees). Trustees who are not also officers of the trust shall retire by December 31st of the year in which they reach their 75th birthday.
Mr. Thomas is an “interested person” because he currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent company of American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM or the advisor). The other trustees are independent. They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The following trustees also serve in this capacity for a number of other registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds: Jonathan S. Thomas, 15; Ronald J. Gilson, 8; and Stephen E. Yates, 7.
The following table presents additional information about the trustees. The mailing address for each trustee other than Jonathan S. Thomas is 330 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10017. The mailing address for Jonathan S. Thomas is 4500 Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64111.

Approval of Management Agreement |
American Century Quality Diversified International ETF
American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF
American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF
At a meeting held on June 3, 2021, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the "Board") unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for American Century Quality Diversified International ETF, American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF, and American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF (collectively the "Existing Funds"). Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s trustees (the “Trustees”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year.
Prior to its consideration of the management agreement, the Trustees requested and reviewed extensive data and information compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Existing Funds and the services provided to each Fund by the Advisor. This review was in addition to the oversight and evaluation undertaken by the Board and its Audit Committee on a continual basis and the information received was supplemental to the extensive information that the Board and its Audit Committee receive and consider throughout the year.
In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:
•the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided and to be provided to each Fund including without limitation portfolio management and trading services, shareholder and intermediary services, compliance and legal services, fund accounting and financial reporting, and fund share distribution;
•the wide range of other programs and services provided and to be provided to each Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
•the investment performance of each Fund, including data comparing each Fund's performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
•the cost of owning each Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
•the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience of the Advisor and the Existing Funds’ service providers;
•the Advisor’s strategic plans, COVID-19 pandemic response, vendor management practices, and social justice initiatives;
•the Advisor’s business continuity plans and cyber security practices;
•financial data showing the cost of services provided to each Fund, the profitability of each Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
•information regarding payments to intermediaries by the Advisor;
•possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of each Fund; and
•possible collateral benefits to the Advisor from the management of the Existing Funds.
The independent Trustees met separately in private session to discuss the renewal and to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also held active discussions with the Advisor regarding the renewal of the management agreement. The
independent Trustees had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.
Factors Considered
The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and independent counsel in connection with the approval. They determined that the information was sufficient for them to evaluate the management agreement for the Existing Funds. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including without limitation the following:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services — Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of each Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services which include the following:
•constructing and designing each Fund
•portfolio research and security selection
•initial capitalization/funding
•securities trading
•Fund administration
•custody of Fund assets
•daily valuation of each Fund’s portfolio
•liquidity monitoring and management
•risk management, including cyber security
•shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
•legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
•regulatory and portfolio compliance
•financial reporting
•marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by each Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)
Investment Management Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Existing Funds is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage each Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to monitor trading activities, and in particular to seek the best execution of fund trades, and to evaluate the use of and payment for research. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board provides oversight of the investment performance process. It regularly reviews investment performance information for each Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks over different time horizons. The Trustees also review investment performance information during the management agreement renewal process. If performance concerns are identified, the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The performance for American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF, American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF, and American Century Quality Diversified International ETF was below their respective benchmark for the one-year and since inception periods reviewed by the Board. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Existing Funds to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.
Shareholder and Other Services. Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges for a comprehensive package of services to the Existing Funds. The Board, directly and through its Audit Committee, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction, technology support (including cyber security), new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to each Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Existing Funds, its profitability in managing each Fund (pre- and post-distribution), its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Existing Funds.
Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to the Existing Funds and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.
Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of each Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is sharing economies of scale, to the extent they exist, through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business, infrastructure, investment capabilities and initiatives to provide shareholders additional content and services.
Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that each Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Existing Fund, other than brokerage expenses, expenses attributable to short sales, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Existing Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider comparing the Existing Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratios of its peers. The unified fee charged to shareholders of American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Growth ETF and American Century Quality Diversified International ETF was below the median of the total expense ratios of their respective peer expense universe and was within the range of their respective peer expense group. The unified fee charged to shareholders of American Century STOXX® U.S. Quality Value ETF was above the median of the total expense ratios of its peer expense universe and was within the range of its peer expense group. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by each Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Existing Funds.
Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to funds or other advisory clients managed similarly to the Existing Funds. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Existing Funds. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Existing Funds were reasonable by comparison.
Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by each Fund and the Advisor and services provided in response thereto. These payments could include various payments made by each Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for each Fund. The Trustees reviewed such information and received representations from the Advisor that all such payments by the Advisor were made from the Advisor’s resources and reasonable profits. The Board found such payments to be reasonable in scope and purpose.
Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the possible existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Existing Funds. They concluded that the Advisor’s primary business is managing funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that additional assets from other clients may offer the Advisor some benefit from increased leverage with service providers and counterparties. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Existing Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Board concluded that appropriate allocation methodologies had been employed to assign resources and the cost of those resources to these other clients
Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Existing Funds’ operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in each Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to each Fund.
Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, determined that the management fee is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and that the investment management agreement between the Existing Funds and the Advisor should be renewed.

Liquidity Risk Management Program |
The Funds have adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Funds' Board of Trustees (the "Board") has designated American Century Investment Management, Inc. (“ACIM”) as the administrator of the program. Personnel of ACIM or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program pursuant to policies and procedures administered by those members of the ACIM’s Investment Oversight Committee who are members of the ACIM’s Investment Management and Global Analytics departments.
Under the program, ACIM manages the Funds' liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Funds. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments, limiting the amount of the Funds' illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to the Funds for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. ACIM’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The Board reviewed a report prepared by ACIM regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, ACIM provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing the Funds' liquidity risk.
Retirement Account Information
As required by law, distributions you receive from certain retirement accounts are subject to federal income tax withholding, unless you elect not to have withholding apply*. Tax will be withheld on the total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case, excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.
Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect not to have income tax withheld or you don’t have enough income tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. You can reduce or defer the income tax on a distribution by directly or indirectly rolling such distribution over to another IRA or eligible plan. You should consult your tax advisor for additional information.
State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income tax withheld (or as otherwise required by state law). State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in accordance with the respective state rules.
*Some 403(b), 457 and qualified retirement plan distributions may be subject to 20% mandatory withholding, as they are subject to special tax and withholding rules. Your plan administrator or plan sponsor is required to provide you with a special tax notice explaining those rules at the time you request a distribution. If applicable, federal and/or state taxes may be withheld from your distribution amount.

Dear Investor:
Thank you for reviewing this annual report for the period ended August 31, 2021. Annual reports help convey important information about fund returns, including market factors that affected performance. For additional investment insights, please visit avantisinvestors.com.
Upbeat Backdrop Bolstered Stocks
Global equities rallied for the 12-month period, benefiting from ongoing central bank and federal government support. These programs helped sustain investor confidence and bolster the economic landscape, despite ongoing challenges from COVID-19 and the inconsistent lifting of virus-related restrictions.
In general, data on U.S. manufacturing, employment, housing and corporate earnings remained upbeat during the period. Additionally, expanding COVID-19 vaccine availability and two federal coronavirus aid packages also helped promote investor optimism. Outside the U.S., economies recovered but at a slower pace. Virus outbreaks and slower vaccine rollouts led to lingering lockdowns in some regions.
Against this backdrop, inflation rose, but central banks remained supportive. In the U.S., where annual consumer inflation hit a 13-year high, the Federal Reserve (Fed) insisted temporary supply chain disruptions and other transient factors were at play. The Fed left interest rates unchanged but hinted it may start hiking rates in 2023, sooner than its previous timetable of 2024.
Despite ongoing pandemic-related challenges, including the emergence of the delta variant of COVID-19, stocks remained in favor and delivered strong 12-month returns. The U.S. generally outperformed other developed markets and emerging markets, as the S&P 500 Index returned more than 31%. Value stocks generally outperformed growth stocks, while small caps significantly outpaced large caps. Similar trends prevailed in non-U.S. equity markets.
Several Factors Shaping Market Dynamics
The return to pre-pandemic life is progressing, albeit somewhat cautiously due to the spread of the delta variant. As the economy and markets respond to this fluid backdrop, investors will face opportunities and ongoing challenges. Economic growth, inflation, the virus’s trajectory, supply chain normalization, and fiscal and monetary policy likely will sway market dynamics.
We appreciate your confidence in us during these extraordinary times. Our firm has a long history of helping clients weather unpredictable markets, and we’re confident we will continue to meet today’s challenges.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
Chairman

Fund Strategy
Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in a diverse group of companies related to emerging markets across market sectors, industry groups, countries and market capitalizations.
The fund seeks securities of companies that it expects to have higher returns. It places an enhanced emphasis on securities of companies with smaller market capitalizations and securities of companies it defines as high profitability or value companies. Conversely, the fund seeks to underweight or exclude securities it expects to have lower returns. These include securities of large companies with lower levels of profitability and higher prices relative to their book values or other financial metrics. Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies related to emerging markets countries.
The fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. The portfolio managers continually analyze market and financial data to make buy, sell and hold decisions. When buying or selling a security, the portfolio managers may consider the trade-off between expected returns of the security and implementation or tax costs of the trade. They do this in an attempt to gain trading efficiencies, avoid unnecessary risk and enhance fund performance.
Performance Review
For the 12-month period ended August 31, 2021, Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF returned 29.76% on a market price basis. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 30.08%. NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
For the same time period, the fund outperformed the broad emerging markets stock universe, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Index, which returned 23.47%. The MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of emerging markets stocks across capitalization categories.
The outperformance versus the index was largely due to the fund’s emphasis on companies with higher levels of profitability and lower prices relative to their book values, or more value-oriented stocks. These companies generally outperformed companies with lower levels of profitability and higher prices relative to their book values, or more growth-oriented stocks.
For example, value stocks (as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Value Index) returned 31.21% for the period. Growth stocks (as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Growth Index) lagged their value-style counterparts, returning 16.50%.

Avantis International Equity ETF seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in a diverse group of non-U.S. companies across countries, market sectors, industry groups and market capitalizations.
The fund seeks securities of companies that it expects to have higher returns. It places an emphasis on the securities of companies with smaller market capitalizations and securities of companies it defines as high profitability or value companies. Conversely, the fund seeks to underweight or exclude securities it expects to have lower returns. These include securities of large companies with lower levels of profitability and higher prices relative to their book values or other financial metrics. Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in equity securities.
The fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. The portfolio managers continually analyze market and financial data to make buy, sell and hold decisions. When buying or selling a security, the portfolio managers may consider the trade-off between expected returns of the security and implementation or tax costs of the trade. They do this in an attempt to gain trading efficiencies, avoid unnecessary risk and enhance fund performance.
Performance Review
For the 12-month period ended August 31, 2021, Avantis International Equity ETF returned 30.65% on a market price basis. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the portfolio returned 30.86%. NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
For the same time period, the fund outperformed the total non-U.S. developed markets stock universe, as measured by the MSCI World ex-USA IMI Index, which returned 27.53%. The MSCI World ex-USA IMI Index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of non-U.S. developed markets stocks across capitalization categories. The outperformance versus the index was largely due to the fund’s emphasis on companies with higher levels of profitability and lower prices relative to their book values. These companies generally outperformed companies with lower levels of profitability and higher prices relative to their book values.
For example, value stocks (as measured by the MSCI World ex-USA IMI Value Index) returned 29.42% for the reporting period. These securities outperformed growth stocks, which returned 25.31% (as measured by the MSCI World ex-USA IMI Growth Index).

Fund Strategy
Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in a diverse group of non-U.S. small-capitalization (small-cap) value companies across countries, market sectors and industry groups.
The fund seeks securities of companies that it expects to have higher returns. It places an enhanced emphasis on securities of companies with smaller market capitalizations and securities of companies it defines as high profitability or value companies. Conversely, the fund seeks to underweight or exclude securities it expects to have lower returns.

The outperformance versus the index was largely due to the fund’s emphasis on small-cap companies with higher levels of profitability and lower prices relative to their book values. These value-oriented companies generally outperformed companies with lower levels of profitability and higher prices relative to their book values, or more growth-oriented stocks.
For example, small-cap value stocks (as measured by the MSCI World ex-USA Small Cap Value Index) returned 36.28% for the reporting period. Small-cap growth stocks (as measured by the MSCI World ex-USA Small Cap Growth Index) lagged their value-style peers, returning 29.85%.
Meanwhile, the exclusion of real estate investment trusts (REITs) in the fund aided relative results. REITs underperformed for the reporting period.

For example, small- and mid-cap stocks (as measured by the Russell 2000 and Russell Midcap indices) returned 47.08% and 41.24%, respectively. These indices outperformed large-cap stocks (as measured by the Russell 1000 Index), which returned 32.25% for the period.

The Russell 2000 Value Index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of U.S. small-cap companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values.
The outperformance was largely due to the fund’s overweight versus the index in companies with the highest profitability and book-to-market characteristics. The exclusion of real estate investment trusts (REITs) also aided the fund’s relative results, as REITs underperformed for the reporting period.

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2021 to August 31, 2021.
Actual Expenses
The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each fund. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the fund you own. Then 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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1)Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio listed in the table above, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184, the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, divided by 365, to reflect the one-half year period. Annualized expense ratio reflects actual expenses, including any applicable fee waivers or expense reimbursements and excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses.

AUGUST 31, 2021
1. Organization
American Century ETF Trust (the trust) was registered as a Delaware statutory trust in 2017 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF, Avantis International Equity ETF, Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF, Avantis U.S. Equity ETF and Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value ETF (collectively, the funds) are five funds in a series issued by the trust. Each of the funds’ investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. Shares of the funds are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF incepted on September 17, 2019. Avantis International Equity ETF, Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF, Avantis U.S. Equity ETF and Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value ETF incepted on September 24, 2019.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the funds in preparation of their financial statements. Each fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.
Investment Valuations — The funds determine the fair value of their investments and compute their net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the funds' investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the funds' pricing function.
Equity securities that are listed or traded on a domestic securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price or at the official closing price as provided by the exchange. Equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges are generally valued at the closing price of such securities on the exchange where primarily traded or at the close of the NYSE, if that is earlier. If no last sales price is reported, or if local convention or regulation so provides, the mean of the latest bid and asked prices may be used. Securities traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price, or the official closing price. Equity securities initially expressed in local currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the appropriate currency exchange rate at the close of the NYSE as provided by an independent pricing service.
Fixed income securities are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Corporate bonds are valued using market models that consider trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information. Fixed income securities initially expressed in local currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the appropriate currency exchange rate at the close of the NYSE as provided by an independent pricing service.
Open-end management investment companies are valued at the reported NAV per share. Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at the settlement price as provided by the appropriate exchange.
If the funds determine that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the funds may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the funds to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.
The funds monitor for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before each fund’s NAV per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region. The funds also monitor for significant fluctuations between domestic and foreign markets, as evidenced by the U.S. market or such other indicators that the Board of Trustees, or its delegate, deems appropriate. The funds may apply a model-derived factor to the closing price of equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges. The factor is based on observable market data as provided by an independent pricing service.
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes. Certain countries impose taxes on realized gains on the sale of securities registered in their country. The funds record the foreign tax expense, if any, on an accrual basis. The foreign tax expense on realized gains and unrealized appreciation reduces the net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, respectively.
Investment Income — Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or long-term capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The funds may estimate the components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable distributions or long-term capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Securities lending income is net of fees and rebates earned by the lending agent for its services.
Foreign Currency Translations — All assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at prevailing exchange rates at period end. The funds may enter into spot foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions denominated in a foreign currency. Purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income, spot foreign currency exchange contracts, and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses related to investment securities are a component of net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, respectively.
Segregated Assets — In accordance with the 1940 Act, the funds segregate assets on their books and records to cover certain types of investment securities and other financial instruments. American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the investment advisor) monitors, on a daily basis, the securities segregated to ensure the funds designate a sufficient amount of liquid assets, marked-to-market daily. The funds may also receive assets or be required to pledge assets at the custodian bank or with a broker for collateral requirements.
Income Tax Status — It is each fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The funds file U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The funds' tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are generally declared and paid quarterly for Avantis U.S. Equity ETF and Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value ETF, and semiannually for Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF, Avantis International Equity ETF and Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually for all funds. Each fund may elect to treat a portion of its payment to a redeeming shareholder, which represents the pro rata share of undistributed net investment income and net realized gains, as a distribution for federal income tax purposes (tax equalization).
Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.
Securities Lending — Securities are lent to qualified financial institutions and brokers. State Street Bank & Trust Co. serves as securities lending agent to the funds pursuant to a Securities Lending Agreement. The lending of securities exposes the funds to risks such as: the borrowers may fail to return the loaned securities, the borrowers may not be able to provide additional collateral, the funds may experience delays in recovery of the loaned securities or delays in access to collateral, or the funds may experience losses related to the investment collateral. To minimize certain risks, loan counterparties pledge collateral in the form of cash and/or securities. The lending agent has agreed to indemnify the funds in the case of default of any securities borrowed. Cash collateral received is invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Government Money Market Portfolio, a money market mutual fund registered under the 1940 Act. The loans may also be secured by U.S. government securities in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis and adjusted accordingly. By lending securities, the funds seek to increase their net investment income through the receipt of interest and fees. Such income is reflected separately within the Statements of Operations. The value of loaned securities and related collateral outstanding at period end, if any, are shown on a gross basis within the Schedules of Investments and Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
The following table reflects a breakdown of transactions accounted for as secured borrowings, the gross obligation by the type of collateral pledged, and the remaining contractual maturity of those transactions as of August 31, 2021.

5. Capital Share Transactions
Each fund’s shares may only be bought and sold in a secondary market through a broker-dealer at a market price. Because ETF shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (a premium) or less than NAV (a discount). Each fund issues and redeems shares at their NAV only in aggregations of a specified number of shares (a creation unit) generally in exchange for a designated portfolio of securities and/or cash (including any portion of such securities for which cash may be substituted). Authorized participants may be required to pay an additional variable charge to cover certain brokerage, tax, foreign exchange, execution, market impact and other costs and expenses related to the execution of trades resulting from creation unit transactions. Such variable charges, if any, are included in other capital within the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
6. Fair Value Measurements
The funds’ investment valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.
•Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.
•Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.
•Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).
The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments.
The following is a summary of the level classifications as of period end. The Schedules of Investments provide additional information on the funds’ portfolio holdings.

7. Derivative Instruments
Equity Price Risk — The funds are subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. A fund may enter into futures contracts based on an equity index in order to manage its exposure to changes in market conditions. A fund may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to increases in market value or sell futures contracts to protect against a decline in market value. Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund is required to deposit either cash or securities in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value (initial margin). Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized gains and losses. A fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts, respectively. One of the risks of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying securities. During the period, the funds participated in equity price risk derivative instruments for temporary investment purposes.
At period end, the funds did not have any derivative instruments disclosed on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

8. Risk Factors
The value of the funds’ shares will go up and down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, based on the performance of the securities owned by the funds and other factors generally affecting the securities market. Market risks, including political, regulatory, economic and social developments, can affect the value of the funds’ investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies, terrorism and other unforeseeable events may lead to increased market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on world economies and markets generally.
There are certain risks involved in investing in foreign securities. These risks include those resulting from political events (such as civil unrest, national elections and imposition of exchange controls), social and economic events (such as labor strikes and rising inflation), and natural disasters. Securities of foreign issuers may be less liquid and more volatile. Investing in emerging markets or a significant portion of assets in one country or region may accentuate these risks.
Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF and Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value ETF invest in common stocks of small companies. Because of this, the funds may be subject to greater risk and market fluctuations than funds investing in larger, more established companies.
9. Federal Tax Information
The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended August 31, 2021 and period ended August 31, 2020 were as follows:

(2)September 24, 2019 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020.
The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.
The reclassifications, which are primarily due to in kind transactions, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF | Avantis International Equity ETF | Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF | Avantis U.S. Equity ETF | Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value ETF |
Capital paid in | $ | 1,145,744 | | $ | 1,009,223 | | $ | 35,251,387 | | $ | 9,151,317 | | $ | 95,612,695 | |
Distributable earnings | $ | (1,145,744) | | $ | (1,009,223) | | $ | (35,251,387) | | $ | (9,151,317) | | $ | (95,612,695) | |
As of period end, the federal tax cost of investments and the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income | $ | 8,816,908 | | $ | 6,483,654 | | $ | 7,528,757 | | $ | 3,525,106 | | $ | 3,906,880 | |
Accumulated short-term capital losses | $ | (5,131,240) | | $ | (3,053,566) | | $ | (6,421,355) | | $ | (1,343,095) | | $ | (8,944,416) | |
Accumulated long-term capital losses | $ | (1,041,261) | | $ | (1,096,124) | | $ | (110,519) | | $ | (332,151) | | — | |
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the realization to ordinary income for tax purposes of unrealized gains on investments in passive
foreign investment companies, return of capital dividends received and tax deferral of losses on wash sales.
Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized
capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The capital loss carryovers may be carried forward for an
unlimited period. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue
Code limitations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of American Century ETF Trust:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Avantis® Emerging Markets Equity ETF, Avantis® International Equity ETF, Avantis® International Small Cap Value ETF, Avantis® U.S. Equity ETF, and Avantis® U.S. Small Cap Value ETF (the “Funds”), five of the funds constituting the American Century ETF Trust, as of August 31, 2021, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the year ended August 31, 2021, and the period from September 24, 2019 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020 (as to Avantis® Emerging Markets Equity ETF, for the year ended August 31, 2021, and the period from September 17, 2019 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020); and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting American Century ETF Trust as of August 31, 2021, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for the year ended August 31, 2021, and the period from September 24, 2019 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020 (as to Avantis® Emerging Markets Equity ETF, for the year ended August 31, 2021, and the period from September 17, 2019 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020), in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights 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 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

The Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office. The board has adopted a mandatory retirement age for trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act (independent trustees). Trustees who are not also officers of the trust shall retire by December 31st of the year in which they reach their 75th birthday.

They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The following trustees also serve in this capacity for a number of other registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds: Jonathan S. Thomas, 15; Ronald J. Gilson, 8; and Stephen E. Yates, 7.

Approval of Management Agreement |
At a meeting held on June 3, 2021, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the "Board") unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for each of the Funds. Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s trustees (the “Trustees”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year.
Prior to its consideration of the management agreement, the Trustees requested and reviewed extensive data and information compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Funds and the services provided to each Fund by the Advisor. This review was in addition to the oversight and evaluation undertaken by the Board and its Audit Committee on a continual basis and the information received was supplemental to the extensive information that the Board and its Audit Committee receive and consider throughout the year.
In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:
•the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided and to be provided to each Fund including without limitation portfolio management and trading services, shareholder and intermediary services, compliance and legal services, fund accounting and financial reporting, and fund share distribution;
•the wide range of other programs and services provided and to be provided to each Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
•the investment performance of each Fund, including data comparing each Fund's performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
•the cost of owning each Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
•the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience of the Advisor and the Funds’ service providers;
•the Advisor’s strategic plans, COVID-19 pandemic response, vendor management practices, and social justice initiatives;
•the Advisor’s business continuity plans and cyber security practices;
•financial data showing the cost of services provided to each Fund, the profitability of each Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
•information regarding payments to intermediaries by the Advisor;
•possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of each Fund; and
•possible collateral benefits to the Advisor from the management of the Funds.
The independent Trustees met separately in private session to discuss the renewal and to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also held active discussions with the Advisor regarding the renewal of the management agreement. The independent Trustees had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.
Factors Considered
The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and independent counsel in connection with the approval. They determined that the information was sufficient for them to evaluate the management agreement for the Funds. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including without limitation the following:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services — Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of each Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services which include the following:
•constructing and designing each Fund
•portfolio research and security selection
•initial capitalization/funding
•securities trading
•Fund administration
•custody of Fund assets
•daily valuation of each Fund’s portfolio
•liquidity monitoring and management
•risk management, including cyber security
•shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
•legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
•regulatory and portfolio compliance
•financial reporting
•marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by each Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)
Investment Management Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Funds is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage each Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to monitor trading activities, and in particular to seek the best execution of fund trades, and to evaluate the use of and payment for research. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board provides oversight of the investment performance process. It regularly reviews investment performance information for each Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks over different time horizons. The Trustees also review investment performance information during the management agreement renewal process. If performance concerns are identified, the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The performance for Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value ETF was above its benchmark for the one-year and since inception periods reviewed by the Board. The performance for Avantis International Equity ETF was at its benchmark for the since inception period and below its benchmark for the one-year period reviewed by the Board. The performance for Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF, Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF, and Avantis U.S. Equity ETF was below each Fund's respective benchmark for the one-year and since inception periods
reviewed by the Board. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Funds to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.
Shareholder and Other Services. Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges for a comprehensive package of services to the Funds. The Board, directly and through its Audit Committee, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction, technology support (including cyber security), new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to each Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Funds, its profitability in managing each Fund (pre- and post-distribution), its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Funds.
Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to the Funds and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.
Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of each Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is sharing economies of scale, to the extent they exist, through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business, infrastructure, investment capabilities and initiatives to provide shareholders additional content and services.
Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that each Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses, expenses attributable to short sales, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider comparing the Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratios of its peers. The unified fee charged to shareholders of Avantis International Equity ETF and Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF was below the median of the total expense ratios of their respective peer expense universe and was within the range of their respective peer expense group. The unified fee charged to shareholders of Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF and Avantis U.S. Equity ETF was below the median of the total expense ratios of their respective peer expense universe and was the lowest of their respective peer expense group. The unified fee charged to shareholders of Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value ETF was the
lowest of the total expense ratios of its peer expense universe and was the lowest of its peer expense group. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by each Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.
Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to funds or other advisory clients managed similarly to the Funds. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Funds. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Funds were reasonable by comparison.
Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by each Fund and the Advisor and services provided in response thereto. These payments could include various payments made by each Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for each Fund. The Trustees reviewed such information and received representations from the Advisor that all such payments by the Advisor were made from the Advisor’s resources and reasonable profits. The Board found such payments to be reasonable in scope and purpose.
Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the possible existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. They concluded that the Advisor’s primary business is managing funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that additional assets from other clients may offer the Advisor some benefit from increased leverage with service providers and counterparties. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Board concluded that appropriate allocation methodologies had been employed to assign resources and the cost of those resources to these other clients
Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Funds’ operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in each Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to each Fund.
Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, determined that the management fee is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and that the investment management agreement between the Funds and the Advisor should be renewed.

Liquidity Risk Management Program |
The Funds have adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Funds' Board of Trustees (the "Board") has designated American Century Investment Management, Inc. (“ACIM”) as the administrator of the program. Personnel of ACIM or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program pursuant to policies and procedures administered by those members of the ACIM’s Investment Oversight Committee who are members of the ACIM’s Investment Management and Global Analytics departments.
Under the program, ACIM manages the Funds' liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Funds. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments, limiting the amount of the Funds' illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to the Funds for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. ACIM’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The Board reviewed a report prepared by ACIM regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, ACIM provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing the Funds' liquidity risk.
Retirement Account Information
As required by law, distributions you receive from certain retirement accounts are subject to federal income tax withholding, unless you elect not to have withholding apply*. Tax will be withheld on the total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case, excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.
Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect not to have income tax withheld or you don’t have enough income tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. You can reduce or defer the income tax on a distribution by directly or indirectly rolling such distribution over to another IRA or eligible plan. You should consult your tax advisor for additional information.
State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income tax withheld (or as otherwise required by state law). State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in accordance with the respective state rules.
*Some 403(b), 457 and qualified retirement plan distributions may be subject to 20% mandatory withholding, as they are subject to special tax and withholding rules. Your plan administrator or plan sponsor is required to provide you with a special tax notice explaining those rules at the time you request a distribution. If applicable, federal and/or state taxes may be withheld from your distribution amount.

Dear Investor:
Thank you for reviewing this annual report for the period ended August 31, 2021. Annual reports help convey important information about fund returns, including market factors that affected performance. For additional investment insights, please visit avantisinvestors.com.
Bond Returns Were Mixed
While high-quality securities struggled, credit-sensitive bonds generally advanced against a backdrop of economic and earnings gains and ongoing central bank and federal government support. These influences helped sustain investor confidence despite ongoing challenges from COVID-19 and the inconsistent lifting of virus-related restrictions.
In general, data on U.S. manufacturing, employment, housing and corporate earnings remained upbeat. Additionally, COVID-19 vaccine availability also helped promote investor optimism.
The benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yield spiked to a period high 1.75% in late March. However, beginning in April, longer-maturity yields headed lower—a trend that generally continued through the end of the period despite a sharp uptick in inflation. The emergence of COVID-19’s delta variant prompted a reassessment of rosy growth outlooks, sending Treasury yields lower. In addition, slightly hawkish language from the Federal Reserve (Fed) contributed to growth concerns.
The annual U.S. headline inflation rate soared to a 13-year high, but the Fed insisted temporary supply chain disruptions and other transient factors were at play. The Fed left interest rates unchanged but hinted it may start hiking rates in 2023, sooner than its previous timetable of 2024.
Overall, Treasury yields ended the period higher. Treasury returns generally declined, dragging down the broad U.S. investment-grade bond market. However, credit-sensitive securities, including corporate bonds and municipal securities, delivered gains.
Several Factors Shaping Market Dynamics
The return to pre-pandemic life is progressing, albeit somewhat cautiously due to the spread of the delta variant. As the economy and markets respond to this fluid backdrop, investors will face opportunities and ongoing challenges. Economic growth, inflation, the virus’s trajectory, supply chain normalization, and fiscal and monetary policy likely will sway market dynamics.
We appreciate your confidence in us during these extraordinary times. Our firm has a long history of helping clients weather unpredictable markets, and we’re confident we will continue to meet today’s challenges.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
Chairman

Portfolio Managers: Eduardo Repetto, Hozef Arif, Mitchell Handa and Daniel Ong
Fund Strategy
Avantis Core Fixed Income ETF seeks to maximize total returns by investing primarily in investment-grade debt obligations across sectors, maturities and issuers.
In seeking securities with high expected returns, the portfolio managers use an analytical framework, which includes an assessment of securities’ expected income and capital appreciation. The portfolio managers categorize securities within the fund’s investment universe into component groups based on factors such as industry sector, credit rating, duration, country and currency. The portfolio managers then calculate the expected return implied by the yield curve of each component group. At the same time, they consider valuation metrics, such as yield, duration and option adjusted spreads. Finally, the portfolio managers adjust the weightings for each component group, with the goal of building a portfolio with enhanced expected return.
The fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. The portfolio managers continually analyze market and financial data to make buy, sell and hold decisions. When buying or selling a security, the portfolio managers may consider the trade-off between expected returns of the security and implementation or tax costs of the trade. They do this in an attempt to gain trading efficiencies, avoid unnecessary risk and enhance fund performance.
Performance Review
For the period from the fund’s inception on October 13, 2020, through August 31, 2021, Avantis Core Fixed Income ETF returned 0.24%* on a market price basis. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 0.15%. NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
For the same time period, the fund outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned -0.09%. The index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of the broad U.S. taxable investment-grade bond market.
The fund’s outperformance versus the index was largely due to the fund’s overweight to corporate bonds. These securities generally outperformed the broad bond market during the period. In addition, the fund’s overweight position versus the index in the five- to 10-year portion of the yield curve aided results. This positioning helped offset the negative effects of underweighting the longer end of the yield curve.
*Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.

Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF seeks to generate current income exempt from federal income tax by investing primarily in municipal securities.

For the period from the fund’s inception on December 8, 2020, through August 31, 2021, Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF returned 0.99%* on a market price basis. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 0.93%. NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
For the same time period, the fund underperformed the S&P National AMT-Free Municipal Bond Index, which returned 1.85%. The index is a broad, comprehensive, market value-weighted index designed to measure the performance of the investment-grade tax-exempt U.S. municipal bond market.
Most of the fund’s underperformance versus the index occurred early in the period, when the fund’s quality composition was notably higher than that of the index. Specifically, the fund’s underweight position versus the index in securities with BBB credit ratings detracted from results. Additionally, the fund’s underweight position to longer-maturity municipal bonds detracted from results.

Data assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, and none of the charts reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

Fund Strategy
Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income ETF seeks to maximize total returns by investing primarily in shorter-maturity investment-grade debt obligations across sectors, maturities and issuers.
In seeking securities with high expected returns, the portfolio managers use an analytical framework, which includes an assessment of securities’ expected income and capital appreciation. The portfolio managers categorize securities within the fund’s investment universe into component groups based on factors such as industry sector, credit rating, duration, country and currency. The portfolio managers then calculate the expected return implied by the yield curve of each component group. At the same time, they consider valuation metrics, such as yield, duration and option adjusted spreads. Finally, the portfolio managers adjust the weightings for each component group, with the goal of building a portfolio with enhanced expected return.
The fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. The portfolio managers continually analyze market and financial data to make buy, sell and hold decisions. When buying or selling a security, the portfolio managers may consider the trade-off between expected returns of the security and implementation or tax costs of the trade. They do this in an attempt to gain trading efficiencies, avoid unnecessary risk and enhance fund performance.
Performance Review
For the period from the fund’s inception on October 13, 2020, through August 31, 2021, Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income ETF returned 0.41%* on a market price basis. On a net asset value (NAV) basis, the fund returned 0.33%. NAV and market price returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
For the same time period, the fund outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Government/Credit 1-5 Year Index, which returned 0.31%. The index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of U.S. Treasury, government agency and corporate bonds with maturities between one and five years.
The fund’s outperformance versus the index was largely due to the fund’s overweight position versus the index in corporate bonds, which generally outperformed for the period. In addition, an underweight position to U.S. Treasury securities, which underperformed for the period, aided the fund’s relative results.
*Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2021 to August 31, 2021.
Actual Expenses
The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each fund. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the fund you own. Then 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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1)Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio listed in the table above, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184, the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, divided by 365, to reflect the one-half year period. Annualized expense ratio reflects actual expenses, including any applicable fee waivers or expense reimbursements and excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses.

‡The maximum potential amount the fund could be required to deliver as a seller of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of the agreement is the notional amount. The maximum potential amount may be partially offset by any recovery values of the reference entities and upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement.
^The value for credit default swap agreements serves as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of an expected liability or profit at the period end. Increasing values in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the credit default swap agreement represent a deterioration of the referenced entity's credit soundness and an increased likelihood or risk of a credit event occurring as defined in the agreement.

AUGUST 31, 2021
1. Organization
American Century ETF Trust (the trust) was registered as a Delaware statutory trust in 2017 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. Avantis Core Fixed Income ETF, Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF and Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income ETF (collectively, the funds) are three funds in a series issued by the trust. The investment objective for Avantis Core Fixed Income ETF and Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income ETF is to seek to maximize total return. Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF’s investment objective is to seek current income that is exempt from federal income tax. Shares of the funds are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. Avantis Core Fixed Income ETF and Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income ETF incepted on October 13, 2020. Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF incepted on December 8, 2020.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the funds in preparation of their financial statements. Each fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.
Investment Valuations — The funds determine the fair value of their investments and compute their net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the funds' investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the funds' pricing function.
Fixed income securities are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Corporate bonds, U.S. Treasury and Government Agency securities, municipal securities, and sovereign governments and agencies are valued using market models that consider trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information. Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are valued based on models that consider trade data, prepayment and default projections, benchmark yield and spread data and estimated cash flows of each tranche of the issuer. Commercial paper is valued using a curve-based approach that considers money market rates for specific instruments, programs, currencies and maturity points from a variety of active market makers.
Open-end management investment companies are valued at the reported NAV per share. Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at the settlement price as provided by the appropriate exchange. Swap agreements are valued at an evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or independent brokers.
If the funds determine that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the funds may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the funds to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.
The funds monitor for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before each fund’s NAV per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region.
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.
Investment Income — Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Inflation adjustments related to inflation-linked debt securities are reflected as interest income.
Forward Commitments — The funds may engage in securities transactions on a forward commitment basis. In these transactions, the securities’ prices and yields are fixed on the date of the commitment. The funds may sell a to-be-announced (TBA) security and at the same time make a commitment to purchase the same security at a future date at a specified price. Conversely, the funds may purchase a TBA security and at the same time make a commitment to sell the same security at a future date at a specified price. These types of transactions are known as “TBA roll” transactions and are accounted for as purchases and sales. The funds will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on its records in amounts sufficient to meet the purchase price.
Segregated Assets — In accordance with the 1940 Act, the funds segregate assets on their books and records to cover certain types of investment securities and other financial instruments. American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the investment advisor) monitors, on a daily basis, the securities segregated to ensure the funds designate a sufficient amount of liquid assets, marked-to-market daily. The funds may also receive assets or be required to pledge assets at the custodian bank or with a broker for collateral requirements.
Income Tax Status — It is each fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The funds file U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The funds' tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are generally declared and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually.
Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.
3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties
Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, ACIM, and the trust’s administrator, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC.
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee). The agreement provides that ACIM will pay all expenses of managing and operating the funds, except brokerage and other transaction fees and expenses relating to the acquisition and disposition of portfolio securities, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, litigation expenses and extraordinary expenses. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of each fund and paid monthly in arrears.
The annual management fee for each fund is as follows:
| | | | | |
| Annual Management Fee |
Avantis Core Fixed Income ETF | 0.15% |
Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF | 0.15% |
Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income ETF | 0.15% |
Interfund Transactions — The funds may enter into security transactions with other American Century Investments funds and other client accounts of the investment advisor, in accordance with the 1940 Act rules and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The rules and procedures require, among other things, that these transactions be effected at the independent current market price of the security. There were no interfund transactions during the period.

(2)December 8, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
5. Capital Share Transactions
Each fund’s shares may only be bought and sold in a secondary market through a broker-dealer at a market price. Because ETF shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (a premium) or less than NAV (a discount). Each fund issues and redeems shares at their NAV only in aggregations of a specified number of shares (a creation unit) generally in exchange for a designated portfolio of securities and/or cash (including any portion of such securities for which cash may be substituted). Authorized participants may be required to pay an additional variable charge to cover certain brokerage, tax, foreign exchange, execution, market impact and other costs and expenses related to the execution of trades resulting from creation unit transactions. Such variable charges, if any, are included in other capital within the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
6. Fair Value Measurements
The funds’ investment valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.
•Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.
•Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.
•Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).
The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments.
The following is a summary of the level classifications as of period end. The Schedules of Investments provide additional information on the funds’ portfolio holdings.

7. Derivative Instruments
Credit Risk — The funds are subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of a bond generally declines as the credit quality of its issuer declines. Credit default swap agreements enable a fund to buy/sell protection against a credit event of a specific issuer or index. A fund may attempt to enhance returns by selling protection or attempt to mitigate credit risk by buying protection. The buyer/seller of credit protection against a security or basket of securities may pay/receive an up-front or periodic payment to compensate for/against potential default events. Changes in value, including the periodic amounts of interest to be paid or received on swap agreements, are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swap agreements. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, a fund is required to deposit cash or securities (initial margin) with a financial intermediary in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the notional amount. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the value and is a component of unrealized gains and losses. Realized gain or loss is recorded upon receipt or payment of a periodic settlement or termination of swap agreements. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of swap agreements are a component of net realized gain (loss) on swap agreement transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swap agreements, respectively. The risks of entering into swap agreements include the possible lack of liquidity, failure of the counterparty to meet its obligations, and that there may be unfavorable changes in the underlying investments or instruments.
The fund's average notional amount to credit risk derivative instruments held during the period was as follows:
| | | | | |
Avantis Core Fixed Income ETF | $750,000 |
Interest Rate Risk — The funds are subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of bonds generally declines as interest rates rise. A fund may enter into futures contracts based on a bond index or a specific underlying security. A fund may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to increases in market value or sell futures contracts to protect against a decline in market value. Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on its records in amounts sufficient to meet requirements. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized gains and losses. A fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the futures contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts, respectively. One of the risks of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying securities.
The fund's average notional exposure to interest rate risk derivative instruments held during the period was as follows:

8. Risk Factors
The value of the funds’ shares will go up and down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, based on the performance of the securities owned by the funds and other factors generally affecting the securities market. Market risks, including political, regulatory, economic and social developments, can affect the value of the funds’ investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies, terrorism and other unforeseeable events may lead to increased market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on world economies and markets generally.
The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly stressed the financial resources of many municipal issuers, which may impair a municipal issuer’s ability to meet its financial obligations when due and could adversely impact the value of its bonds, which could negatively impact the performance of the funds.
A fund’s investment process may result in high portfolio turnover, which could mean high transaction costs, affecting both performance and capital gains tax liabilities to investors.
9. Federal Tax Information
The tax character of distributions paid during the period ended August 31, 2021 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2021 |
| Distributions Paid From: |
| Exempt Income | Ordinary Income | Long-term Capital Gains |
Avantis Core Fixed Income ETF(1) | — | | $ | 309,850 | | — | |
Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF(2) | $ | 106,865 | | — | | — | |
Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income ETF(1) | — | | $ | 73,220 | | — | |
(1)October 13, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
(2)December 8, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021.
The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.
As of period end, the federal tax cost of investments and the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Avantis Core Fixed Income ETF | Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF | Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income ETF |
Federal tax cost of investments | $ | 82,496,821 | | $ | 27,339,473 | | $ | 32,241,611 | |
Gross tax appreciation of investments | $ | 487,684 | | $ | 145,165 | | $ | 42,047 | |
Gross tax depreciation of investments | (101,545) | | (41,449) | | (31,502) | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments | 386,139 | | 103,716 | | 10,545 | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) on derivatives | 1,664 | | — | | — | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) | $ | 387,803 | | $ | 103,716 | | $ | 10,545 | |
Undistributed ordinary income | $ | 74,816 | | — | | $ | 14,293 | |
Undistributed exempt income | — | | $ | 18,317 | | — | |
Accumulated short-term capital losses | $ | (45,039) | | $ | (5,086) | | $ | (1,519) | |
Accumulated long-term capital losses | $ | (871) | | — | | — | |
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales. The cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes for Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF and Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income ETF.
Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The capital loss carryovers may be carried forward for an unlimited period. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of American Century ETF Trust:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Avantis® Core Fixed Income ETF, Avantis® Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF, and Avantis® Short-Term Fixed Income ETF (the “Funds”), three of the funds constituting the American Century ETF Trust, as of August 31, 2021, the related statements of operations, the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the period from October 13, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021 (as to Avantis® Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF, for the period from December 8, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021); and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting American Century ETF Trust as of August 31, 2021, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the period from October 13, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021 (as to Avantis® Core Municipal Fixed Income ETF, for the period from December 8, 2020 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021), in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights 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 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

The Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office. The board has adopted a mandatory retirement age for trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act (independent trustees). Trustees who are not also officers of the trust shall retire by December 31st of the year in which they reach their 75th birthday.

They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The following trustees also serve in this capacity for a number of other registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds: Jonathan S. Thomas, 15; Ronald J. Gilson, 8; and Stephen E. Yates, 7.

Approval of Management Agreement |
At a meeting held on June 3, 2021, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the "Board") unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for each of the Funds. Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s trustees (the “Trustees”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year.
Prior to its consideration of the management agreement, the Trustees requested and reviewed extensive data and information compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Funds and the services provided to each Fund by the Advisor. This review was in addition to the oversight and evaluation undertaken by the Board and its Audit Committee on a continual basis and the information received was supplemental to the extensive information that the Board and its Audit Committee receive and consider throughout the year.
In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:
•the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided and to be provided to each Fund including without limitation portfolio management and trading services, shareholder and intermediary services, compliance and legal services, fund accounting and financial reporting, and fund share distribution;
•the wide range of other programs and services provided and to be provided to each Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
•the investment performance of each Fund, including data comparing each Fund's performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
•the cost of owning each Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
•the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience of the Advisor and the Funds’ service providers;
•the Advisor’s strategic plans, COVID-19 pandemic response, vendor management practices, and social justice initiatives;
•the Advisor’s business continuity plans and cyber security practices;
•financial data showing the cost of services provided to each Fund, the profitability of each Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
•information regarding payments to intermediaries by the Advisor;
•possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of each Fund; and
•possible collateral benefits to the Advisor from the management of the Funds.
The independent Trustees met separately in private session to discuss the renewal and to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also held active discussions with the Advisor regarding the renewal of the management agreement. The independent Trustees had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.
Factors Considered
The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and independent counsel in connection with the approval. They determined that the information was sufficient for them to evaluate the management agreement for the Funds. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including without limitation the following:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services — Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of each Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services which include the following:
•constructing and designing each Fund
•portfolio research and security selection
•initial capitalization/funding
•securities trading
•Fund administration
•custody of Fund assets
•daily valuation of each Fund’s portfolio
•liquidity monitoring and management
•risk management, including cyber security
•shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
•legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
•regulatory and portfolio compliance
•financial reporting
•marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by each Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)
Investment Management Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Funds is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage each Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to monitor trading activities, and in particular to seek the best execution of fund trades, and to evaluate the use of and payment for research. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board provides oversight of the investment performance process. It regularly reviews investment performance information for each Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks over different time horizons. The Trustees also review investment performance information during the management agreement renewal process. If performance concerns are identified, the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Funds to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.
Shareholder and Other Services. Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges for a comprehensive package of services to the Funds. The Board, directly and through its Audit Committee, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational
efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction, technology support (including cyber security), new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to each Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Funds, its profitability in managing each Fund (pre- and post-distribution), its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Funds.
Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to the Funds and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.
Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of each Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is sharing economies of scale, to the extent they exist, through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business, infrastructure, investment capabilities and initiatives to provide shareholders additional content and services.
Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that each Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses, expenses attributable to short sales, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider comparing the Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratios of its peers. The unified fee charged to shareholders of each Fund was the lowest of the total expense ratios of their respective peer expense universe and was the lowest of their respective peer expense group. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by each Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.
Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to funds or other advisory clients managed similarly to the Funds. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Funds. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Funds were reasonable by comparison.
Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by each Fund and the Advisor and services provided in response thereto. These payments could include various payments made by each Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for each Fund. The Trustees reviewed such information and received representations from the Advisor that all such payments by the Advisor were made from the Advisor’s resources and reasonable profits. The Board found such payments to be reasonable in scope and purpose.
Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the possible existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. They concluded that the Advisor’s primary business is managing funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that additional assets from other clients may offer the Advisor some benefit from increased leverage with service providers and counterparties. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Board concluded that appropriate allocation methodologies had been employed to assign resources and the cost of those resources to these other clients
Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Funds’ operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in each Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to each Fund.
Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, determined that the management fee is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and that the investment management agreement between the Funds and the Advisor should be renewed.

Liquidity Risk Management Program |
The Funds have adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Funds' Board of Trustees (the "Board") has designated American Century Investment Management, Inc. (“ACIM”) as the administrator of the program. Personnel of ACIM or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program pursuant to policies and procedures administered by those members of the ACIM’s Investment Oversight Committee who are members of the ACIM’s Investment Management and Global Analytics departments.
Under the program, ACIM manages the Funds' liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Funds. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments, limiting the amount of the Funds' illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to the Funds for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. ACIM’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The Board reviewed a report prepared by ACIM regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, ACIM provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing the Funds' liquidity risk.
Retirement Account Information
As required by law, distributions you receive from certain retirement accounts are subject to federal income tax withholding, unless you elect not to have withholding apply*. Tax will be withheld on the total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case, excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.
Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect not to have income tax withheld or you don’t have enough income tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. You can reduce or defer the income tax on a distribution by directly or indirectly rolling such distribution over to another IRA or eligible plan. You should consult your tax advisor for additional information.
State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income tax withheld (or as otherwise required by state law). State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in accordance with the respective state rules.
*Some 403(b), 457 and qualified retirement plan distributions may be subject to 20% mandatory withholding, as they are subject to special tax and withholding rules. Your plan administrator or plan sponsor is required to provide you with a special tax notice explaining those rules at the time you request a distribution. If applicable, federal and/or state taxes may be withheld from your distribution amount.

Dear Investor:
Thank you for reviewing this annual report for the period ended August 31, 2021. Annual reports help convey important information about fund returns, including market factors that affected performance. For additional investment insights, please visit avantisinvestors.com.
Upbeat Backdrop Bolstered Stocks
Global equities rallied for the 12-month period, benefiting from ongoing central bank and federal government support. These programs helped sustain investor confidence and bolster the economic landscape, despite ongoing challenges from COVID-19 and the inconsistent lifting of virus-related restrictions.
In general, data on U.S. manufacturing, employment, housing and corporate earnings remained upbeat during the period. Additionally, expanding COVID-19 vaccine availability and two federal coronavirus aid packages also helped promote investor optimism. Outside the U.S., economies recovered but at a slower pace. Virus outbreaks and slower vaccine rollouts led to lingering lockdowns in some regions.
Against this backdrop, inflation rose, but central banks remained supportive. In the U.S., where annual consumer inflation hit a 13-year high, the Federal Reserve (Fed) insisted temporary supply chain disruptions and other transient factors were at play. The Fed left interest rates unchanged but hinted it may start hiking rates in 2023, sooner than its previous timetable of 2024.
Despite ongoing pandemic-related challenges, including the emergence of the delta variant of COVID-19, stocks remained in favor and delivered strong 12-month returns. The U.S. generally outperformed other developed markets and emerging markets, as the S&P 500 Index returned more than 31%. Value stocks generally outperformed growth stocks, while small caps significantly outpaced large caps. Similar trends prevailed in non-U.S. equity markets.
Several Factors Shaping Market Dynamics
The return to pre-pandemic life is progressing, albeit somewhat cautiously due to the spread of the delta variant. As the economy and markets respond to this fluid backdrop, investors will face opportunities and ongoing challenges. Economic growth, inflation, the virus’s trajectory, supply chain normalization, and fiscal and monetary policy likely will sway market dynamics.
We appreciate your confidence in us during these extraordinary times. Our firm has a long history of helping clients weather unpredictable markets, and we’re confident we will continue to meet today’s challenges.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
Chairman

Fund Strategy
Avantis Emerging Markets Equity seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in a diverse group of companies related to emerging markets across market sectors, industry groups, countries and market capitalizations.
The fund seeks securities of companies that it expects to have higher returns. It places an enhanced emphasis on securities of companies with smaller market capitalizations and securities of companies it defines as high profitability or value companies. Conversely, the fund seeks to underweight or exclude securities it expects to have lower returns. These include securities of large companies with lower levels of profitability and higher prices relative to their book values or other financial metrics. Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies related to emerging markets countries.
The portfolio managers continually analyze market and financial data to make buy, sell and hold decisions. When buying or selling a security, the portfolio managers may consider the trade-off between expected returns of the security and implementation or tax costs of the trade. They do this in an attempt to gain trading efficiencies, avoid unnecessary risk and enhance fund performance.
Performance Review
For the 12-month period ended August 31, 2021, Avantis Emerging Markets Equity returned 31.29%*. For the same time period, the fund’s benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Index, returned 23.47%. Fund returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
The MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of emerging markets stocks across capitalization categories. The fund’s outperformance versus the index was largely due to the fund’s emphasis on companies with higher levels of profitability and lower prices relative to their book values. These value-oriented companies generally outperformed companies with growth characteristics, including lower levels of profitability and higher prices relative to their book values.
For example, value stocks (as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Value Index) returned 31.21% for the period. Growth stocks (as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Growth Index) lagged their value-style counterparts, returning 16.50%.
*All fund returns referenced in this commentary are for Institutional Class shares. Performance for other share classes will vary due to differences in fee structure; when Institutional Class performance exceeds that of the fund’s benchmark, other share classes may not.

The fund seeks securities of companies that it expects to have higher returns. It places an enhanced emphasis on securities of companies with smaller market capitalizations and securities of companies it defines as high profitability or value companies. Conversely, the fund seeks to underweight or exclude securities it expects to have lower returns. These include securities of large companies with lower levels of profitability and higher prices relative to their book values or other financial metrics. Under normal market conditions, the fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in securities of small-cap companies located in the U.S.
The portfolio managers continually analyze market and financial data to make buy, sell and hold decisions. When buying or selling a security, the portfolio managers may consider the trade-off between expected returns of the security and implementation or tax costs of the trade. They do this in an attempt to gain trading efficiencies, avoid unnecessary risk and enhance fund performance.
Performance Review
For the 12-month period ended August 31, 2021, Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value returned 69.57%*. For the same time period, the fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index, returned 59.49%. Fund returns reflect fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
The fund’s outperformance was largely due to the portfolio’s overweight versus the index in companies with the highest profitability and book-to-market characteristics. Excluding real estate investment trusts (REITs) also aided the fund’s relative results, as REITs underperformed for the reporting period.
*All fund returns referenced in this commentary are for Institutional Class shares. Performance for other share classes will vary due to differences in fee structure; when Institutional Class performance exceeds that of the fund’s benchmark, other share classes may not. See page 15 for returns for all share classes.

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2021 to August 31, 2021.
Actual Expenses
The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the class you own. Then 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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund's share class's. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements |
AUGUST 31, 2021
1. Organization
American Century ETF Trust (the trust) was registered as a Delaware statutory trust in 2017 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. Avantis Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Avantis International Equity Fund, Avantis International Small Cap Value Fund, Avantis U.S. Equity Fund and Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value Fund (collectively, the funds) are five funds in a series issued by the trust. Each of the funds' investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The funds offer the Institutional Class and G Class. The Institutional Class of each fund commenced sale on December 4, 2019, the funds' inception date. The G Class of each fund commenced sale on January 20, 2021.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the funds in preparation of their financial statements. Each fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.
Investment Valuations — The funds determine the fair value of their investments and compute their net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the funds' investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the funds' pricing function.
Equity securities that are listed or traded on a domestic securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price or at the official closing price as provided by the exchange. Equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges are generally valued at the closing price of such securities on the exchange where primarily traded or at the close of the NYSE, if that is earlier. If no last sales price is reported, or if local convention or regulation so provides, the mean of the latest bid and asked prices may be used. Securities traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price, or the official closing price. Equity securities initially expressed in local currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the appropriate currency exchange rate at the close of the NYSE as provided by an independent pricing service.
Fixed income securities are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Corporate bonds are valued using market models that consider trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information. Fixed income securities initially expressed in local currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the appropriate currency exchange rate at the close of the NYSE as provided by an independent pricing service.
Open-end management investment companies are valued at the reported NAV per share. Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at the settlement price as provided by the appropriate exchange.
If the funds determine that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the funds may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the funds to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.
The funds monitor for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before each fund’s NAV per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region. The funds also monitor for significant fluctuations between domestic and foreign markets, as evidenced by the U.S. market or such other indicators that the Board of Trustees, or its delegate, deems appropriate. The funds may apply a model-derived factor to the closing price of equity securities traded on foreign securities exchanges. The factor is based on observable market data as provided by an independent pricing service.
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes. Certain countries impose taxes on realized gains on the sale of securities registered in their country. The funds record the foreign tax expense, if any, on an accrual basis. The foreign tax expense on realized gains and unrealized appreciation reduces the net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, respectively.
Investment Income — Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or long-term capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The funds may estimate the components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable distributions or long-term capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Securities lending income is net of fees and rebates earned by the lending agent for its services.
Foreign Currency Translations — All assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at prevailing exchange rates at period end. The funds may enter into spot foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions denominated in a foreign currency. Purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income, spot foreign currency exchange contracts, and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses related to investment securities are a component of net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, respectively.
Segregated Assets — In accordance with the 1940 Act, the funds segregate assets on their books and records to cover certain types of investment securities and other financial instruments. American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the investment advisor) monitors, on a daily basis, the securities segregated to ensure the funds designate a sufficient amount of liquid assets, marked-to-market daily. The funds may also receive assets or be required to pledge assets at the custodian bank or with a broker for collateral requirements.
Income Tax Status — It is each fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The funds file U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The funds' tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Multiple Class — All shares of each fund represent an equal pro rata interest in the net assets of the class to which such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except for class specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only individual classes. Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the funds are allocated to each class of shares based on their relative net assets.
Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually. Each fund may elect to treat a portion of its payment to a redeeming shareholder, which represents the pro rata share of undistributed net investment income and net realized gains, as a distribution for federal income tax purposes (tax equalization).
Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.
Securities Lending — Securities are lent to qualified financial institutions and brokers. State Street Bank & Trust Co. serves as securities lending agent to the funds pursuant to a Securities Lending Agreement. The lending of securities exposes the funds to risks such as: the borrowers may fail to return the loaned securities, the borrowers may not be able to provide additional collateral, the funds may experience delays in recovery of the loaned securities or delays in access to collateral, or the funds may experience losses related to the investment collateral. To minimize certain risks, loan counterparties pledge collateral in the form of cash and/or securities. The lending agent has agreed to indemnify the funds in the case of default of any securities borrowed. Cash collateral received is invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Government Money Market Portfolio, a money market mutual fund registered under the 1940 Act. The loans may also be secured by U.S. government securities in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis and adjusted accordingly. By lending securities, the funds seek to increase their net investment income through the receipt of interest and fees. Such income is reflected separately within the Statements of Operations. The value of loaned securities and related collateral outstanding at period end, if any, are shown on a gross basis within the Schedules of Investments and Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
The following table reflects a breakdown of transactions accounted for as secured borrowings, the gross obligation by the type of collateral pledged, and the remaining contractual maturity of those transactions as of August 31, 2021.

3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties
Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, ACIM, the funds' distributor, American Century Investment Services, Inc., and the trust’s transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC.
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee) per class. The agreement provides that ACIM will pay all expenses of managing and operating the funds, except brokerage and other transaction fees and expenses relating to the acquisition and disposition of portfolio securities, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, litigation expenses and extraordinary expenses. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on each class's daily net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The investment advisor agreed to waive each fund's G Class management fee in its entirety. The investment advisor expects this waiver to remain in effect permanently and cannot terminate it without the approval of the Board of Trustees.
For the period ended August 31, 2021, the annual management fee for the Institutional Class and the effective annual management fee before and after waiver for G Class for each fund are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Effective Annual Management Fee |

Interfund Transactions — The funds may enter into security transactions with other American Century Investments funds and other client accounts of the investment advisor, in accordance with the 1940 Act rules and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The rules and procedures require, among other things, that these transactions be effected at the independent current market price of the security. There were no interfund transactions during the period.

6. Fair Value Measurements
The funds’ investment valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.
•Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.
•Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.
•Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).
The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments.
The following is a summary of the level classifications as of period end. The Schedules of Investments provide additional information on the funds’ portfolio holdings.

7. Derivative Instruments
Equity Price Risk — The funds are subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. A fund may enter into futures contracts based on an equity index in order to manage its exposure to changes in market conditions. A fund may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to increases in market value or sell futures contracts to protect against a decline in market value. Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund is required to deposit either cash or securities in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value (initial margin). Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized gains and losses. A fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts, respectively. One of the risks of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying securities.
The funds' average notional exposure to equity price risk derivative instruments held during the period were as follows:

8. Risk Factors
The value of the funds’ shares will go up and down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, based on the performance of the securities owned by the funds and other factors generally affecting the securities market. Market risks, including political, regulatory, economic and social developments, can affect the value of the funds’ investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies, terrorism and other unforeseeable events may lead to increased market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on world economies and markets generally.
There are certain risks involved in investing in foreign securities. These risks include those resulting from political events (such as civil unrest, national elections and imposition of exchange controls), social and economic events (such as labor strikes and rising inflation), and natural disasters. Securities of foreign issuers may be less liquid and more volatile. Investing in emerging markets or a significant portion of assets in one country or region may accentuate these risks.
Avantis International Small Cap Value Fund and Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value Fund invest in common stocks of small companies. Because of this, the funds may be subject to greater risk and market fluctuations than funds investing in larger, more established companies.
9. Federal Tax Information
The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended August 31, 2021 and period December 4, 2019 (funds inception) through August 31, 2020 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2021 | 2020 |
| Distributions Paid From: | Distributions Paid From: |
| Ordinary Income | Long-term Capital Gains | Ordinary Income | Long-term Capital Gains |
Avantis Emerging Markets Equity Fund | $ | 961,367 | | — | | $ | 36,886 | | — | |
Avantis International Equity Fund | $ | 945,667 | | — | | $ | 14,040 | | — | |
Avantis International Small Cap Value Fund | $ | 742,081 | | — | | $ | 34,502 | | — | |

Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value Fund | $ | 923,459 | | $ | 24,989 | | $ | 9,656 | | — | |
The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.
As of period end, the federal tax cost of investments and the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Avantis Emerging Markets Equity Fund | Avantis International Equity Fund | Avantis International Small Cap Value Fund | Avantis U.S. Equity Fund | Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value Fund |
Federal tax cost of investments | $ | 100,816,999 | | $ | 59,422,158 | | $ | 111,850,031 | | $ | 177,199,193 | | $ | 191,365,353 | |

Accumulated long-term capital gains | — | | $ | 638,287 | | $ | 664,353 | | $ | 442,088 | | $ | 4,831,070 | |
Accumulated short-term capital losses | $ | (408,414) | | — | | — | | — | | — | |
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains on investments in passive foreign investment companies.
Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The capital loss carryovers may be carried forward for an unlimited period. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of American Century ETF Trust:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Avantis® Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Avantis® International Equity Fund, Avantis® International Small Cap Value Fund, Avantis® U.S. Equity Fund, and Avantis® U.S. Small Cap Value Fund (the “Funds”), five of the funds constituting the American Century ETF Trust, as of August 31, 2021, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the year ended August 31, 2021, and the period from December 4, 2019 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020; and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting American Century ETF Trust as of August 31, 2021, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for the year ended August 31, 2021, and the period from December 4, 2019 (fund inception) through August 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights 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 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

The Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office.

They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The following trustees also serve in this capacity for a number of other registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds: Jonathan S. Thomas, 15; Ronald J. Gilson, 8; and Stephen E. Yates, 7.

Approval of Management Agreement |
At a meeting held on June 3, 2021, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the "Board") unanimously approved the renewal of the management agreement pursuant to which American Century Investment Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) acts as the investment advisor for each of the Funds. Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated, and approved by a majority of a fund’s trustees (the “Trustees”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, each year.
Prior to its consideration of the management agreement, the Trustees requested and reviewed extensive data and information compiled by the Advisor and certain independent providers of evaluation data concerning the Funds and the services provided to each Fund by the Advisor. This review was in addition to the oversight and evaluation undertaken by the Board and its Audit Committee on a continual basis and the information received was supplemental to the extensive information that the Board and its Audit Committee receive and consider throughout the year.
In connection with its consideration of the renewal of the management agreement, the Board’s review and evaluation of the services provided by the Advisor included, but was not limited to, the following:
•the nature, extent, and quality of investment management, shareholder services, and other services provided and to be provided to each Fund including without limitation portfolio management and trading services, shareholder and intermediary services, compliance and legal services, fund accounting and financial reporting, and fund share distribution;
•the wide range of other programs and services provided and to be provided to each Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;
•the investment performance of each Fund, including data comparing each Fund's performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a peer group of other funds with similar investment objectives and strategies;
•the cost of owning each Fund compared to the cost of owning similar funds;
•the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory experience of the Advisor and the Funds’ service providers;
•the Advisor’s strategic plans, COVID-19 pandemic response, vendor management practices, and social justice initiatives;
•the Advisor’s business continuity plans and cyber security practices;
•financial data showing the cost of services provided to each Fund, the profitability of each Fund to the Advisor, and the overall profitability of the Advisor;
•information regarding payments to intermediaries by the Advisor;
•possible economies of scale associated with the Advisor’s management of each Fund; and
•possible collateral benefits to the Advisor from the management of the Funds.
The independent Trustees met separately in private session to discuss the renewal and to review and discuss the information provided in response to their request. The independent Trustees also held active discussions with the Advisor regarding the renewal of the management agreement. The independent Trustees had the benefit of the advice of their independent counsel throughout the process.
Factors Considered
The Trustees considered all of the information provided by the Advisor, the independent data providers, and independent counsel in connection with the approval. They determined that the information was sufficient for them to evaluate the management agreement for the Funds. In connection with their review, the Trustees did not identify any single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management agreement, the Board based its decision on a number of factors, including without limitation the following:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services — Generally. Under the management agreement, the Advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all services necessary for the operation of each Fund. The Board noted that the Advisor provides or arranges at its own expense a wide variety of services which include the following:
•constructing and designing each Fund
•portfolio research and security selection
•initial capitalization/funding
•securities trading
•Fund administration
•custody of Fund assets
•daily valuation of each Fund’s portfolio
•liquidity monitoring and management
•risk management, including cyber security
•shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder confirmations, recordkeeping, and communications
•legal services (except the independent Trustees’ counsel)
•regulatory and portfolio compliance
•financial reporting
•marketing and distribution (except amounts paid by each Fund under Rule 12b-1 plans)
Investment Management Services. The nature of the investment management services provided to the Funds is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders access to professional money management, instant diversification of their investments within an asset class, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the Board expects the Advisor to manage each Fund in accordance with its investment objectives and approved strategies. Further, the Trustees recognize that the Advisor has an obligation to monitor trading activities, and in particular to seek the best execution of fund trades, and to evaluate the use of and payment for research. In providing these services, the Advisor utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance, and other systems to conduct their business. The Board provides oversight of the investment performance process. It regularly reviews investment performance information for each Fund, together with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks over different time horizons. The Trustees also review investment performance information during the management agreement renewal process. If performance concerns are identified, the Board discusses with the Advisor the reasons for such results and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The performance for Avantis International Equity Fund and Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value Fund was above each Fund’s respective benchmark for the one-year and since inception periods reviewed by the Board. The performance for Avantis Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Avantis International Small Cap Value Fund, and Avantis U.S. Equity Fund was below each Fund's respective benchmark for the one-year and since inception periods reviewed by the Board. The Board found the investment management services provided by the Advisor to the Funds to be satisfactory and consistent with the management agreement.
Shareholder and Other Services. Under the management agreement, the Advisor provides or arranges for a comprehensive package of services to the Funds. The Board, directly and through its Audit Committee, regularly reviews reports and evaluations of such services at its regular meetings. These reports include, but are not limited to, information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels, shareholder satisfaction, technology support (including cyber security), new products and services offered to Fund shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services, auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. The Board found the services provided by the Advisor to each Fund under the management agreement to be competitive and of high quality.
Costs of Services and Profitability. The Advisor provides detailed information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Funds, its profitability in managing each Fund (pre- and post-distribution), its overall profitability, and its financial condition. The Trustees have reviewed with the Advisor the methodology used to prepare this financial information. This information is considered in evaluating the Advisor’s financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current management fee. The Board concluded that the Advisor’s profits were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Funds.
Ethics. The Board generally considers the Advisor’s commitment to providing quality services to the Funds and to conducting its business ethically. They noted that the Advisor’s practices generally meet or exceed industry best practices.
Economies of Scale. The Board also reviewed information provided by the Advisor regarding the possible existence of economies of scale in connection with the management of each Fund. The Board concluded that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a fund-by-fund basis. The Board concluded that the Advisor is sharing economies of scale, to the extent they exist, through its competitive fee structure, offering competitive fees from fund inception, and through reinvestment in its business, infrastructure, investment capabilities and initiatives to provide shareholders additional content and services.
Comparison to Other Funds’ Fees. The management agreement provides that each Fund pays the Advisor a single, all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses, expenses attributable to short sales, taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and expenses incurred in connection with the provision of shareholder services and distribution services under a plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under the unified fee structure, the Advisor is responsible for providing all investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance, recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and supervising third parties to provide such services. The Board believes the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts to the Advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the Board’s analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data compiled by an independent provider comparing the Fund’s unified fee to the total expense ratios of its peers. The unified fee charged to shareholders of each Fund was the lowest of the total expense ratios of their respective peer expense universe and was the lowest of their respective peer expense group. The Board concluded that the management fee paid by each Fund to the Advisor under the management agreement is reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund.
Comparison to Fees and Services Provided to Other Clients of the Advisor. The Board also requested and received information from the Advisor concerning the nature of the services, fees, costs, and profitability of its advisory services to funds or other advisory clients managed similarly
to the Funds. They observed that these varying types of client accounts require different services and involve different regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Funds. The Board analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and services provided to the Funds were reasonable by comparison.
Payments to Intermediaries. The Trustees also requested and received a description of payments made to intermediaries by each Fund and the Advisor and services provided in response thereto. These payments could include various payments made by each Fund or the Advisor to different types of intermediaries and recordkeepers for distribution and service activities provided for each Fund. The Trustees reviewed such information and received representations from the Advisor that all such payments by the Advisor were made from the Advisor’s resources and reasonable profits. The Board found such payments to be reasonable in scope and purpose.
Collateral or “Fall-Out” Benefits Derived by the Advisor. The Board considered the possible existence of collateral benefits the Advisor may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. They concluded that the Advisor’s primary business is managing funds and it generally does not use fund or shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Board noted that additional assets from other clients may offer the Advisor some benefit from increased leverage with service providers and counterparties. The Board also determined that the Advisor is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Board concluded that appropriate allocation methodologies had been employed to assign resources and the cost of those resources to these other clients
Existing Relationship. The Board also considered whether there was any reason for not continuing the existing arrangement with the Advisor. In this regard, the Board was mindful of the potential disruptions of the Funds’ operations and various risks, uncertainties, and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision not to continue such relationship. In particular, the Board recognized that most shareholders have invested in each Fund on the strength of the Advisor’s industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Advisor will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to each Fund.
Conclusion of the Trustees. As a result of this process, the Board, including all of the independent Trustees, taking into account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the Advisor and others in connection with its review and throughout the year, determined that the management fee is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and that the investment management agreement between the Funds and the Advisor should be renewed.

Liquidity Risk Management Program |
The Funds have adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “program”). The Funds' Board of Trustees (the "Board") has designated American Century Investment Management, Inc. (“ACIM”) as the administrator of the program. Personnel of ACIM or its affiliates conduct the day-to-day operation of the program pursuant to policies and procedures administered by those members of the ACIM’s Investment Oversight Committee who are members of the ACIM’s Investment Management and Global Analytics departments.
Under the program, ACIM manages the Funds' liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Funds. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments, limiting the amount of the Funds' illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to the Funds for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. ACIM’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of the Funds' investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.
The Board reviewed a report prepared by ACIM regarding the operation and effectiveness of the program for the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. No significant liquidity events impacting the Funds were noted in the report. In addition, ACIM provided its assessment that the program had been effective in managing the Funds' liquidity risk.
Retirement Account Information
As required by law, distributions you receive from certain retirement accounts are subject to federal income tax withholding, unless you elect not to have withholding apply*. Tax will be withheld on the total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case, excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.
If you don’t want us to withhold on this amount, you must notify us to not withhold the federal income tax. You may notify us in writing or in certain situations by telephone or through other electronic means. For systematic withdrawals, your withholding election will remain in effect until revoked or changed by filing a new election. You have the right to revoke your election at any time and change your withholding percentage for future distributions.
Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect not to have income tax withheld or you don’t have enough income tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. You can reduce or defer the income tax on a distribution by directly or indirectly rolling such distribution over to another IRA or eligible plan. You should consult your tax advisor for additional information.
State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income tax withheld (or as otherwise required by state law). State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in accordance with the respective state rules.
*Some 403(b), 457 and qualified retirement plan distributions may be subject to 20% mandatory withholding, as they are subject to special tax and withholding rules. Your plan administrator or plan sponsor is required to provide you with a special tax notice explaining those rules at the time you request a distribution. If applicable, federal and/or state taxes may be withheld from your distribution amount.

Dear Investor:
Thank you for reviewing this annual report for the approximately six-month period ended August 31, 2021. Annual reports help convey important information about fund returns, including market factors that affected performance. For additional investment insights, please visit avantisinvestors.com.
Bonds Delivered Gains
U.S. bonds generally advanced against a backdrop of mostly positive economic news and ongoing central bank and federal government support. Data on U.S. manufacturing, employment, housing and corporate earnings generally remained upbeat. Additionally, COVID-19 vaccine availability also helped promote investor optimism. These influences helped sustain investor confidence despite ongoing challenges from COVID-19 and the inconsistent lifting of virus-related restrictions.
After starting the period at 1.38%, the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yield spiked to 1.75% in late March before falling to 1.31% by August 31. This downward move occurred despite a sharp uptick in inflation. The emergence of COVID-19’s delta variant prompted a reassessment of rosy growth outlooks, pushing Treasury yields lower. In addition, slightly hawkish language from the Federal Reserve (Fed) fueled growth concerns.
The annual U.S. headline inflation rate soared to a 13-year high, but the Fed insisted temporary supply chain disruptions and other transient factors were at play. The Fed left interest rates unchanged but hinted it may start hiking rates in 2023, sooner than its previous timetable of 2024.
Overall, Treasuries delivered gains for the period. The broad U.S. investment-grade bond market advanced, led by rallying corporate bonds. Municipal bonds also posted robust gains and broadly outperformed Treasuries.
Several Factors Shaping Market Dynamics
The return to pre-pandemic life is progressing, albeit somewhat cautiously due to the spread of the delta variant. As the economy and markets respond to this fluid backdrop, investors will face opportunities and ongoing challenges. Economic growth, inflation, the virus’s trajectory, supply chain normalization, and fiscal and monetary policy likely will sway market dynamics.
We appreciate your confidence in us during these extraordinary times. Our firm has a long history of helping clients weather unpredictable markets, and we’re confident we will continue to meet today’s challenges.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Thomas
Chairman

The total annual fund operating expenses shown is as stated in the fund’s prospectus current as of the date of this report. The prospectus may vary from the expense ratio shown elsewhere in this report because it is based on a different time period, includes acquired fund fees and expenses, and, if applicable, does not include fee waivers or expense reimbursements.

Fund Strategy
Avantis Core Fixed Income seeks to maximize total returns by investing primarily in investment-grade debt obligations across sectors, maturities and issuers.
In seeking securities with high expected returns, the portfolio managers use an analytical framework, which includes an assessment of securities’ expected income and capital appreciation. The portfolio managers categorize securities within the fund’s investment universe into component groups based on factors such as industry sector, credit rating, duration, country and currency. The portfolio managers then calculate the expected return implied by the yield curve of each component group. At the same time, they consider valuation metrics, such as yield, duration and option adjusted spreads. Finally, the portfolio managers adjust the weightings for each component group, with the goal of building a portfolio with enhanced expected return.
Performance Review
For the period from the fund’s inception on February 24, 2021, through August 31, 2021, Avantis Core Fixed Income returned 1.56%*. For the same time period, the fund slightly outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 1.54%. The fund’s return reflects fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of the broad U.S. taxable investment-grade bond market. The fund’s outperformance versus the index was largely due to the fund’s allocations to corporate bonds. These securities generally outperformed the broad bond market during the period.
*All fund returns referenced in this commentary are for Institutional Class shares. Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized. Performance for other share classes will vary due to differences in fee structure; when Institutional Class performance exceeds that of the fund’s benchmark, other share classes may not.

Portfolio Managers: Eduardo Repetto, Hozef Arif, Mitchell Handa and Daniel Ong
Fund Strategy
Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income seeks to generate current income exempt from federal income tax by investing primarily in municipal securities.
In seeking securities with high expected returns, the portfolio managers use an analytical framework, which includes an assessment of securities’ expected income and capital appreciation. The portfolio managers categorize securities within the fund’s investment universe into component groups based on factors such as industry sector, credit rating, duration, country and currency. The portfolio managers then calculate the expected return implied by the yield curve of each component group. At the same time, they consider valuation metrics, such as yield, duration and option adjusted spreads. Finally, the portfolio managers adjust the weightings for each component group, with the goal of building a portfolio with enhanced expected return.
Performance Review
For the period from the fund’s inception on February 24, 2021, through August 31, 2021, Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income returned 2.17%*. For the same time period, the fund modestly underperformed the S&P National AMT-Free Municipal Bond Index, which returned 2.25%. The fund’s return reflects fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
The S&P National AMT-Free Municipal Bond Index is a broad, comprehensive, market value-weighted index designed to measure the performance of the investment-grade tax-exempt U.S. municipal bond market. Most of the fund’s underperformance versus the index occurred early in the period, when the fund’s quality composition was notably higher than that of the index. Specifically, the fund’s underweight position versus the index in securities with BBB credit ratings detracted from results.
Conversely, the fund’s positioning along the yield curve aided relative results. Our preference for intermediate-maturity securities contributed to results, as these securities generally outperformed longer-maturity municipals.
*All fund returns referenced in this commentary are for Institutional Class shares. Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized. Performance for other share classes will vary due to differences in fee structure; when Institutional Class performance exceeds that of the fund’s benchmark, other share classes may not.

Fund Strategy
Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income seeks to maximize total returns by investing primarily in shorter-maturity investment-grade debt obligations across sectors, maturities and issuers.
In seeking securities with high expected returns, the portfolio managers use an analytical framework, which includes an assessment of securities’ expected income and capital appreciation. The portfolio managers categorize securities within the fund’s investment universe into component groups based on factors such as industry sector, credit rating, duration, country and currency. The portfolio managers then calculate the expected return implied by the yield curve of each component group. At the same time, they consider valuation metrics, such as yield, duration and option adjusted spreads.

Performance Review
For the period from the fund’s inception on February 24, 2021, through August 31, 2021, Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income returned 0.21%*. For the same time period, the fund modestly outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Government/Credit 1-5 Year Index, which returned 0.19%. The fund’s return reflects fees and operating expenses, while the index return does not.
The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Government/Credit 1-5 Year Index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the performance of U.S. Treasury, government agency and corporate bonds with maturities between one and five years. The fund’s outperformance versus the index was largely due to the fund’s overweight position versus the index in corporate bonds, which generally outperformed for the period. In addition, an underweight position to U.S. Treasury securities, which underperformed for the period, also aided the fund’s relative results.
*All fund returns referenced in this commentary are for Institutional Class shares. Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized. Performance for other share classes will vary due to differences in fee structure; when Institutional Class performance exceeds that of the fund’s benchmark, other share classes may not.

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2021 to August 31, 2021.
Actual Expenses
The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First, identify the share class you own. Then 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 “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of your fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of a fund. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1)Expenses are equal to the class's annualized expense ratio listed in the table above, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184, the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, divided by 365, to reflect the one-half year period. Annualized expense ratio reflects actual expenses, including any applicable fee waivers or expense reimbursements and excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses.
(2)Other expenses, which include trustees' fees and expenses, did not exceed 0.005%.

‡The maximum potential amount the fund could be required to deliver as a seller of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of the agreement is the notional amount. The maximum potential amount may be partially offset by any recovery values of the reference entities and upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement.
^The value for credit default swap agreements serves as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of an expected liability or profit at the period end. Increasing values in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the credit default swap agreement represent a deterioration of the referenced entity's credit soundness and an increased likelihood or risk of a credit event occurring as defined in the agreement.

AUGUST 31, 2021
1. Organization
American Century ETF Trust (the trust) was registered as a Delaware statutory trust in 2017 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. Avantis Core Fixed Income Fund, Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income Fund and Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income Fund (collectively, the funds) are three funds in a series issued by the trust. The investment objective for Avantis Core Fixed Income Fund and Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income Fund is to seek to maximize total return. Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income Fund’s investment objective is to seek current income that is exempt from federal income tax. The funds offer the Institutional Class and G Class. All classes of the funds commenced sale on February 24, 2021, the funds’ inception date.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the funds in preparation of their financial statements. Each fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management evaluated the impact of events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure.
Investment Valuations — The funds determine the fair value of their investments and compute their net asset value (NAV) per share at the close of regular trading (usually 4 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open. The Board of Trustees has adopted valuation policies and procedures to guide the investment advisor in the funds' investment valuation process and to provide methodologies for the oversight of the funds' pricing function.
Fixed income securities are valued at the evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices as provided by investment dealers. Corporate bonds, U.S. Treasury and Government Agency securities, municipal securities, and sovereign governments and agencies are valued using market models that consider trade data, quotations from dealers and active market makers, relevant yield curve and spread data, creditworthiness, trade data or market information on comparable securities, and other relevant security specific information. Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are valued based on models that consider trade data, prepayment and default projections, benchmark yield and spread data and estimated cash flows of each tranche of the issuer. Commercial paper is valued using a curve-based approach that considers money market rates for specific instruments, programs, currencies and maturity points from a variety of active market makers.
Open-end management investment companies are valued at the reported NAV per share. Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at the settlement price as provided by the appropriate exchange. Swap agreements are valued at an evaluated mean as provided by independent pricing services or independent brokers.
If the funds determine that the market price for an investment is not readily available or the valuation methods mentioned above do not reflect an investment’s fair value, such investment is valued as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or its delegate, in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. In its determination of fair value, the funds may review several factors including, but not limited to, market information regarding the specific investment or comparable investments and correlation with other investment types, futures indices or general market indicators. Circumstances that may cause the funds to use these procedures to value an investment include, but are not limited to: an investment has been declared in default or is distressed; trading in a security has been suspended during the trading day or a security is not actively trading on its principal exchange; prices received from a regular pricing source are deemed unreliable; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading occurred.
The funds monitor for significant events occurring after the close of an investment’s primary exchange but before each fund’s NAV per share is determined. Significant events may include, but are not limited to: corporate announcements and transactions; governmental action and political unrest that could impact a specific investment or an investment sector; or armed conflicts, natural disasters and similar events that could affect investments in a specific country or region.
Security Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.
Investment Income — Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Inflation adjustments related to inflation-linked debt securities are reflected as interest income.
Forward Commitments — The funds may engage in securities transactions on a forward commitment basis. In these transactions, the securities’ prices and yields are fixed on the date of the commitment. The funds may sell a to-be-announced (TBA) security and at the same time make a commitment to purchase the same security at a future date at a specified price. Conversely, the funds may purchase a TBA security and at the same time make a commitment to sell the same security at a future date at a specified price. These types of transactions are known as “TBA roll” transactions and are accounted for as purchases and sales. The funds will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on its records in amounts sufficient to meet the purchase price.
Segregated Assets — In accordance with the 1940 Act, the funds segregate assets on their books and records to cover certain types of investment securities and other financial instruments. American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the investment advisor) monitors, on a daily basis, the securities segregated to ensure the funds designate a sufficient amount of liquid assets, marked-to-market daily. The funds may also receive assets or be required to pledge assets at the custodian bank or with a broker for collateral requirements.
Income Tax Status — It is each fund’s policy to distribute substantially all net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. The funds file U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns as applicable. The funds' tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years from the date of filing but can be longer in certain jurisdictions. At this time, management believes there are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Multiple Class — All shares of each fund represent an equal pro rata interest in the net assets of the class to which such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except for class specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only individual classes. Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the funds are allocated to each class of shares based on their relative net assets.
Distributions to Shareholders — Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually.
Indemnifications — Under the trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be remote.
3. Fees and Transactions with Related Parties
Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or directors of American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC). The trust's investment advisor, ACIM, the funds' distributor, American Century Investment Services, Inc., and the trust’s transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC, are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by ACC. ACIM owns 80%, 100% and 99% of the shares of the Avantis Core Fixed Income Fund, Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income Fund and Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income Fund, respectively. Various funds issued by American Century Asset Allocation Portfolios, Inc. own, in aggregate, 11% of the shares of the Avantis Core Fixed Income Fund. Related parties do not invest in the funds for the purpose of exercising management or control.
Management Fees — The trust has entered into a management agreement with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee) per class. The agreement provides that ACIM will pay all expenses of managing and operating the funds, except brokerage and other transaction fees and expenses relating to the acquisition and disposition of portfolio securities, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, litigation expenses and extraordinary expenses. The fee is computed and accrued daily based on each class's daily net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The investment advisor agreed to waive each fund's G Class management fee in its entirety. The investment advisor expects this waiver to remain in effect permanently and cannot terminate it without the approval of the Board of Trustees.
For the period ended August 31, 2021, the annual management fee for the Institutional Class and the effective annual management fee before and after waiver for G Class for each fund are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Effective Annual Management Fee |
| Institutional Class | G Class Before Waiver | G Class After Waiver |
Avantis Core Fixed Income Fund | 0.15% | 0.15% | 0.00% |
Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income Fund | 0.15% | 0.15% | 0.00% |

6. Fair Value Measurements
The funds’ investment valuation process is based on several considerations and may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the investments held by the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are classified into three broad levels.
•Level 1 valuation inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical investments.
•Level 2 valuation inputs consist of direct or indirect observable market data (including quoted prices for comparable investments, evaluations of subsequent market events, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). These inputs also consist of quoted prices for identical investments initially expressed in local currencies that are adjusted through translation into U.S. dollars.
•Level 3 valuation inputs consist of unobservable data (including a fund’s own assumptions).
The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other financial instruments.
The following is a summary of the level classifications as of period end. The Schedules of Investments provide additional information on the funds’ portfolio holdings.

7. Derivative Instruments
Credit Risk — The funds are subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of a bond generally declines as the credit quality of its issuer declines. Credit default swap agreements enable a fund to buy/sell protection against a credit event of a specific issuer or index. A fund may attempt to enhance returns by selling protection or attempt to mitigate credit risk by buying protection. The buyer/seller of credit protection against a security or basket of securities may pay/receive an up-front or periodic payment to compensate for/against potential default events. Changes in value, including the periodic amounts of interest to be paid or received on swap agreements, are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swap agreements. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, a fund is required to deposit cash or securities (initial margin) with a financial intermediary in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the notional amount. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the value and is a component of unrealized gains and losses. Realized gain or loss is recorded upon receipt or payment of a periodic settlement or termination of swap agreements. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of swap agreements are a component of net realized gain (loss) on swap agreement transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swap agreements, respectively. The risks of entering into swap agreements include the possible lack of liquidity, failure of the counterparty to meet its obligations, and that there may be unfavorable changes in the underlying investments or instruments.
The fund's average notional amount to credit risk derivative instruments held during the period was as follows:
| | | | | |
Avantis Core Fixed Income Fund | $357,143 |
Interest Rate Risk — The funds are subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of bonds generally declines as interest rates rise. A fund may enter into futures contracts based on a bond index or a specific underlying security. A fund may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to increases in market value or sell futures contracts to protect against a decline in market value. Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund will segregate cash, cash equivalents or other appropriate liquid securities on its records in amounts sufficient to meet requirements. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received daily, in cash, by a fund. The variation margin is equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized gains and losses. A fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the futures contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures contract transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts, respectively. One of the risks of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying securities.
The fund's average notional exposure to interest rate risk derivative instruments held during the period was as follows:

8. Risk Factors
The value of the funds’ shares will go up and down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, based on the performance of the securities owned by the funds and other factors generally affecting the securities market. Market risks, including political, regulatory, economic and social developments, can affect the value of the funds’ investments. Natural disasters, public health emergencies, terrorism and other unforeseeable events may lead to increased market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on world economies and markets generally.
The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly stressed the financial resources of many municipal issuers, which may impair a municipal issuer’s ability to meet its financial obligations when due and could adversely impact the value of its bonds, which could negatively impact the performance of the funds.
A fund’s investment process may result in high portfolio turnover, which could mean high transaction costs, affecting both performance and capital gains tax liabilities to investors.
9. Federal Tax Information
The tax character of distributions paid during the period February 24, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2021 |
| Distributions Paid From: |
| Exempt Income | Ordinary Income | Long-term Capital Gains |
Avantis Core Fixed Income Fund | — | | $ | 106,001 | | — | |
Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income Fund | $ | 70,766 | | — | | — | |
Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income Fund | — | | $ | 32,896 | | — | |
The book-basis character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.
As of period end, the federal tax cost of investments and the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Avantis Core Fixed Income Fund | Avantis Core Municipal Fixed Income Fund | Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income Fund |
Federal tax cost of investments | $ | 20,061,603 | | $ | 14,999,219 | | $ | 14,991,789 | |
Gross tax appreciation of investments | $ | 144,847 | | $ | 259,285 | | $ | 12,632 | |
Gross tax depreciation of investments | (11,139) | | (94) | | (12,411) | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments | 133,708 | | 259,191 | | 221 | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) on derivatives | 283 | | — | | — | |
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) | $ | 133,991 | | $ | 259,191 | | $ | 221 | |
Undistributed ordinary income | $ | 23,004 | | $ | 502 | | — | |
Accumulated short-term capital losses | — | | — | | $ | (5,108) | |
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales. The cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes for Avantis Short-Term Fixed Income Fund.
Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The capital loss carryovers may be carried forward for an unlimited period. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of American Century ETF Trust:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Avantis® Core Fixed Income Fund, Avantis® Core Municipal Fixed Income Fund, and Avantis® Short-Term Fixed Income Fund (the “Funds”), three of the funds constituting the American Century ETF Trust, as of August 31, 2021, the related statements of operations, the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the period from February 24, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting American Century ETF Trust as of August 31, 2021, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the period from February 24, 2021 (fund inception) through August 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights 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 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian 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 opinion.

The Board of Trustees
The individuals listed below serve as trustees of the funds. Each trustee will continue to serve in this capacity until death, retirement, resignation or removal from office. The board has adopted a mandatory retirement age for trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act (independent trustees). Trustees who are not also officers of the trust shall retire by December 31st of the year in which they reach their 75th birthday.
Mr. Thomas is an “interested person” because he currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of American Century Companies, Inc.

They are not employees, directors or officers of, and have no financial interest in, ACC or any of its wholly owned, direct or indirect, subsidiaries, including ACIM and American Century Services, LLC (ACS), and they do not have any other affiliations, positions or relationships that would cause them to be considered “interested persons” under the Investment Company Act. The following trustees also serve in this capacity for a number of other registered investment companies in the American Century Investments family of funds: Jonathan S. Thomas, 15; Ronald J. Gilson, 8; and Stephen E. Yates, 7.

Retirement Account Information
As required by law, distributions you receive from certain retirement accounts are subject to federal income tax withholding, unless you elect not to have withholding apply*. Tax will be withheld on the total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case, excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.
If you don’t want us to withhold on this amount, you must notify us to not withhold the federal income tax. You may notify us in writing or in certain situations by telephone or through other electronic means. For systematic withdrawals, your withholding election will remain in effect until revoked or changed by filing a new election. You have the right to revoke your election at any time and change your withholding percentage for future distributions.
Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect not to have income tax withheld or you don’t have enough income tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. You can reduce or defer the income tax on a distribution by directly or indirectly rolling such distribution over to another IRA or eligible plan. You should consult your tax advisor for additional information.
State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income tax withheld (or as otherwise required by state law). State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in accordance with the respective state rules.
*Some 403(b), 457 and qualified retirement plan distributions may be subject to 20% mandatory withholding, as they are subject to special tax and withholding rules. Your plan administrator or plan sponsor is required to provide you with a special tax notice explaining those rules at the time you request a distribution. If applicable, federal and/or state taxes may be withheld from your distribution amount.

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 were as follows:
For services rendered to the registrant:
Fees required to be approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X (relating to certain engagements for non-audit services with the registrant’s investment adviser and its affiliates):
(e)(1) In accordance with paragraph (c)(7)(i)(A) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, before the accountant is engaged by the registrant to render audit or non-audit services, the engagement is approved by the registrant’s audit committee. Pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, the registrant’s audit committee also pre-approves its accountant’s engagements for non-audit services with the registrant’s investment adviser, its parent company, and any entity controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant.
(e)(2) All services described in each of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item were pre-approved before the engagement by the registrant’s audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(A) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X. Consequently, none of such services were required to be approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C).
(f) 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 was less than 50%.
(g) 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 were as follows:
FY 2020: $0
FY 2021: $2,832,126
(h) The registrant’s investment adviser and accountant have notified the registrant’s audit committee of all non-audit services that were rendered by the registrant’s accountant to the registrant’s investment adviser, its parent company, and any entity controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides services to the registrant, which services were not required to be pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X. The notification provided to the registrant’s audit committee included sufficient details regarding such services to allow the registrant’s audit committee to consider the continuing independence of its principal accountant.
