Letter from the President

Dear Shareholder:

We hope you find the semiannual report for PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF informative and useful. The report covers performance for the six-month period ended February 28, 2019.

maintain a diversified portfolio of funds consistent with your tolerance for risk, time horizon, and financial goals.

Your financial advisor can help you create a diversified investment plan that may include funds covering all the basic asset classes and that reflects your personal investor profile and risk tolerance. However, diversification and asset allocation strategies do not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.

PGIM is a top-10 global investment manager with more than $1 trillion in assets under management. This investment expertise allows us to deliver actively managed funds and strategies to meet the needs of investors around the globe.

Your Fund’s Performance(unaudited)

Performance data quoted represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when sold and redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the past performance data quoted. An investor may obtain performance data as of the most recent month-end by visiting our website atpgiminvestments.com or by calling(800) 225-1852.

Source: PGIM Investments LLC and Lipper Inc.

*The market price is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the listing exchange, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. The first day of secondary market trading is typically several days after the date on which the Fund commenced investment operations; therefore, the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for the period from inception of investment operations to the first day of secondary market trading to calculate the market price returns.

Since inception returns for the Indexes and the Lipper Average are measured from the closest month-end to the Fund’s inception date.

The returns in the table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or following the sale or redemption of Fund shares.

Market returns do not include brokerage commissions that may be payable on secondary market transactions. If brokerage commissions were included, market returns would be lower. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, have been reinvested in the Fund at market price and NAV, respectively.

Benchmark Definitions

ICE BofAML 3-Month T Bill Index—The ICE BofA Merrill Lynch 3-Month US Treasury Bill Index tracks the performance of US dollar-denominated US Treasury Bills publicly issued in the US domestic market with a remaining term to final maturity of 3 months.

ICE BofAML USD 3-Month Deposit Offered Rate CM Index—The ICE BofA Merrill Lynch US Dollar3-Month Deposit Offered Rate Constant Maturity Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of a synthetic asset paying LIBOR to a stated maturity. The Index is based on the assumed purchase at par of a synthetic instrument having exactly its stated maturity and with a coupon equal to that current day fixing rate. That issue is assumed to be sold the following business day (priced at a yield equal to the current day fixing rate) and rolled into a new instrument.

ICE BOFA MERRILL LYNCH IS LICENSING THE BOFA MERRILL LYNCH INDICES “AS IS,” MAKES NO WARRANTIES REGARDING THE SAME, DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE SUITABILITY, QUALITY, ACCURACY, TIMELINESS, AND/OR COMPLETENESS OF THE ICE BOFA MERRILL LYNCH INDICES OR ANY DATA INCLUDED IN, RELATED TO, OR DERIVED THEREFROM, ASSUMES NO LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THEIR USE, AND DOES NOT SPONSOR, ENDORSE, OR RECOMMEND THE FUND, OR ANY OF ITS PRODUCTS OR SERVICES.

Lipper Ultra-Short Obligations Funds Average—The Lipper Ultra-Short Obligation Funds Average (Lipper Average) is based on the average return of all funds in the Lipper Ultra-Short Obligation Funds universe for the periods noted. Funds in the Lipper Average are funds that invest primarily in investment-grade debt issues or better and maintain a portfolio dollar weighted average maturity between 91 days and 365 days.

Investors cannot invest directly in an index or average. The returns for the Indexes would be lower if they included the effects of sales charges, operating expenses of a mutual fund, or taxes. Returns for the Lipper Average reflect the deduction of operating expenses of a mutual fund, but not sales charges or taxes.

Credit ratings reflect the highest rating assigned by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO) such as Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (Moody’s), S&P Global Ratings (S&P), or Fitch, Inc. (Fitch). Credit ratings reflect the common nomenclature used by both S&P and Fitch. Where applicable, ratings are converted to the comparable S&P/Fitch rating tier nomenclature. These rating agencies are independent and are widely used. The Not Rated category consists of securities that have not been rated by a NRSRO and may include derivative instruments that could have a negative value. Credit ratings are subject to change. Values may not sum to 100% due to rounding.

Negative weightings may result from specific circumstances (including timing differences between trade and settle dates of securities purchased by the funds) and/or the use of certain financial instruments, including derivatives, which may be used to gain or reduce market exposure and/or risk management.

Fees and Expenses(unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including investment management fees. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 held through the period ended February 28, 2019. The example is for illustrative purposes only.

Actual Expenses

The information under each column in the line entitled “Actual” on the following page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number on the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The information under each column in the line entitled “Hypothetical” on the following page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of Fund shares. Therefore, the ending account values and expenses paid for the period are 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.

*Fund expenses (net of fee waivers or subsidies, if any) are equal to the annualized expense ratio (provided in the table), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the 181 days in the six-month period ended February 28, 2019, and divided by the 365 days in the Fund’s fiscal year ending August 31, 2019 (to reflect the six-month period). Expenses presented in the table include the expenses of any underlying portfolios in which the Fund may invest.

PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF 33

Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited)

PGIM ETF Trust (the “Trust”) is a diversified,open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), and operated as an exchange-traded fund. The Trust was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on October 23, 2017 and consists of six separate series (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”): PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF, PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaLarge-Cap Core ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Growth ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha Small- Cap Value ETF and PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha International Equity ETF.

These financial statements relate only to PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF.

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation, consistent with preservation of capital.

1. Accounting Policies

The Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 Financial Services—Investment Companies. The following accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Fund consistently follows such policies in the preparation of its financial statements.

Securities Valuation:The Fund holds securities and other assets and liabilities that are fair valued at the close of each day (generally, 4:00 PM Eastern time) the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted valuation procedures for security valuation under which fair valuation responsibilities have been delegated to PGIM Investments LLC (“PGIM Investments” or the “Manager”). Pursuant to the Board’s delegation, the Manager has established a Valuation Committee responsible for supervising the fair valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities. The valuation procedures permit the Fund to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers, and alternative valuation methods when market quotations are either not readily available or not deemed representative of fair value. A record of the Valuation Committee’s actions is subject to the Board’s review, approval, and ratification at its next regularly scheduled quarterly meeting.

For the fiscal reportingperiod-end, securities and other assets and liabilities were fair valued at the close of the last U.S. business day. Trading in certain foreign securities may occur when the NYSE is closed (including weekends and holidays). Because such foreign

34

securities trade in markets that are open on weekends and U.S. holidays, the values of some of the Fund’s foreign investments may change on days when investors cannot purchase or redeem Fund shares.

Various inputs determine how the Fund’s investments are valued, all of which are categorized according to the three broad levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) detailed in the Schedule of Investments and referred to herein as the “fair value hierarchy” in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820—Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

Investments inopen-end,non-exchange-traded mutual funds are valued at their net asset values as of the close of the NYSE on the date of valuation. These securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since they may be purchased or sold at their net asset values on the date of valuation.

Fixed income securities traded in the OTC market are generally classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Such fixed income securities are typically valued using the market approach which generally involves obtaining data from an approved independent third-party vendor source. The Fund utilizes the market approach as the primary method to value securities when market prices of identical or comparable instruments are available. The third-party vendors’ valuation techniques used to derive the evaluated bid price are based on evaluating observable inputs, including but not limited to, yield curves, yield spreads, credit ratings, deal terms, tranche level attributes, default rates, cash flows, prepayment speeds, broker/dealer quotations and reported trades. Certain Level 3 securities are also valued using the market approach when obtaining a single broker quote or when utilizing transaction prices for identical securities that have been used in excess of five business days. During the reporting period, there were no changes to report with respect to the valuation approach and/or valuation techniques discussed above.

Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are generally valued at the daily settlement price determined by the respective exchange. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the daily settlement price is not public.

Securities and other assets that cannot be priced according to the methods described above are valued based on pricing methodologies approved by the Board. In the event that unobservable inputs are used when determining such valuations, the securities will be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

When determining the fair value of securities, some of the factors influencing the valuation include: the nature of any restrictions on disposition of the securities; assessment of the general liquidity of the securities; the issuer’s financial condition and the markets in which it does business; the cost of the investment; the size of the holding and the capitalization of the issuer; the prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities; any available analyst media or other reports or information deemed reliable by the Manager regarding the issuer or the markets or industry in which it operates.

PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF 35

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)

Using fair value to price securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent closing price and from the price used by other unaffiliated mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.

Illiquid Securities:Pursuant to Rule22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Fund has adopted a Board approved Liquidity Risk Management Program (“LRMP”) that requires, among other things, that the Fund limit its illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of net assets. Illiquid securities are those that, because of the absence of a readily available market or due to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, may not reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. The Fund may find it difficult to sell illiquid securities at the time considered most advantageous by its subadviser and may incur transaction costs that would not be incurred in the sale of securities that were freely marketable.

Restricted Securities:Securities acquired in unregistered, private sales from the issuing company or from an affiliate of the issuer are considered restricted as to disposition under federal securities law (‘restricted securities”). Such restricted securities are valued pursuant to the valuation procedures noted above. Restricted securities that would otherwise be considered illiquid investments pursuant to the Fund’s LRMP because of legal restrictions on resale to the general public may be traded among qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. Therefore, these Rule 144A securities, as well as commercial paper that is sold in private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, may be classified higher than “Illiquid” under the LRMP (i.e. “moderately liquid” or “less liquid” investments). However, the liquidity of the Fund’s investments in restricted securities could be impaired if trading does not develop or declines.

Swap Agreements:The Fund may enter into certain types of swap agreements detailed in the disclosures below. A swap agreement is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one instrument for the return generated by another instrument. Swap agreements are negotiated in the OTC market and may be executed either directly with counterparty(“OTC-traded”) or through a central clearing facility, such as a registered exchange. Swap agreements are valued daily at current market value and any change in value is included in the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swap agreements. Centrally cleared swaps pay or receive an amount known as “variation margin”, based on daily changes in the valuation of the swap contract. Any upfront premiums paid and received are shown as swap premiums paid and swap premiums received in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Risk of loss may exceed amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Swap agreements outstanding at period end, if any, are listed on the Schedule of Investments.

36

Interest Rate Swaps:Interest rate swaps represent an agreement between counterparties to exchange cash flows based on the difference between two interest rates, applied to a notional principal amount for a specified period. The Fund is subject to interest rate risk exposure in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund used interest rate swaps to maintain its ability to generate steady cash flow by receiving a stream of fixed-rate payments and to increase exposure to prevailing market rates by receiving floating rate payments. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the discounted net present value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty over the contract’s remaining life.

Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income:Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains (losses) from investment and currency transactions are calculated on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recorded on theex-date, or for certain foreign securities, when the Fund becomes aware of such dividends. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is recorded on the accrual basis. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis, which may require the use of certain estimates by management that may differ from actual.

Taxes:It is the Fund’s policy to continue to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net investment income and capital gains, if any, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest and capital gains, if any, are recorded, net of reclaimable amounts, at the time the related income is earned.

Dividends and Distributions:The Fund expects to declare dividends of its net investment income daily and pay such dividends monthly. Distributions of net realized capital and currency gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on theex-date. Permanent book/ tax differences relating to income and gain (loss) are reclassified amongst total distributable earnings (loss) andpaid-in capital in excess of par, as appropriate.

Estimates:The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities (excluding short- term investments and U.S. Government securities) for the period ended February 28, 2019, were $141,947,730 and $42,104,011 respectively.

A summary of the cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of shares of affiliated mutual funds for the period ended February 28, 2019, is presented as follows:

Value Beginning of Period*	Cost of Purchases	Proceeds from Sales	Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss)	Realized Gain (Loss)	Value, End of Period	Shares, End of Period	Dividend Income
PGIM Institutional Money Market Fund
$37,013	$41,556,586	$(41,579,011)	$64	$(598)	$14,054	14,050	$9,226

* The Fund did not have any capital gain distributions during the reporting period.

For the reporting period ended February 28, 2019, no17a-7 transactions were entered into by the Fund.

5. Tax Information

The United States federal income tax basis of the Fund’s investments and the net unrealized depreciation as of February 28, 2019 were as follows:

Tax Basis	$	234,864,433
Gross Unrealized Appreciation		290,338
Gross Unrealized Depreciation		(347,692	)
Net Unrealized Depreciation	$	(57,354	)

The book basis may differ from tax basis due to certaintax-related adjustments.

For federal income tax purposes, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward as of August 31, 2018 of approximately $12,000 which can be carried forward for an unlimited period. No capital gains distributions are expected to be paid to shareholders until net gains have been realized in excess of such losses.

The Manager has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state and local income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements for the current reporting period. The Fund’s federal, state and local income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

6. Capital and Ownership

The Fund is an exchange-traded fund, commonly known as an “ETF”. Individual shares of the Fund may only be purchased and sold in secondary market transactions through brokers or other financial intermediaries. Shares of the Fund are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”), and because the shares of the Fund trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares of the Fund may trade at a price greater than NAV (a premium) or less than NAV (a discount). The Fund will issue and redeem its shares at NAV only in a large specified number of shares called a “Creation Unit” or multiples thereof to investors who have entered into an agreement with the Distributor and are authorized to transact with the Trust in Creation Units (“Authorized Participants”). A Creation Unit consists of 25,000 shares of the Fund. The Fund generally issues and redeems Creation Units in return for a specified amount of cash and/ or designated portfolio of securities. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not individually redeemable. Authorized Participants transacting in Creation Units includingnon-standard orders and whole or partial cash purchases or redemptions may also pay variable transaction fees to compensate the Fund for certain transaction costs (e.g. brokerage costs) relating to investing in portfolio securities. Such variable transaction fees, if any, are currently being waived by the Fund. In addition, fixed transaction fees are imposed for the transfer and other costs associated with the creation or redemption of Creation Units. Authorized Participants are responsible for paying these fixed transaction fees to BBH. As of February 28, 2019, these fixed transaction fees are being paid by PGIM Investments. For the period ended February 28, 2019 PGIM Investments paid $38,000 of fixed transaction fees to BBH.

The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, $0.001 par value per share.

As of February 28, 2019, Prudential, through its affiliate entities, including affiliated funds, owned 500,000 shares of the Fund.

At reporting period end, four shareholders of record, each holding greater than 5% of the Fund, held 70% of the Fund’s outstanding shares on behalf of multiple beneficial owners, of which 11% were held by an affiliate of Prudential.

Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

Period ended February 28, 2019:

	Shares			Amount
Shares sold		3,775,000		$	188,760,208
Shares reacquired		(200,000	)		(9,999,280	)
Net increase (decrease) in shares outstanding before conversion		3,575,000			178,760,928
Net increase (decrease) in shares outstanding		3,575,000		$	178,760,928

7. Borrowings

The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, along with other affiliated registered investment companies (the “Funds”), is a party to a Syndicated Credit Agreement (“SCA”) with a group of banks. The purpose of the SCA is to provide an alternative source of temporary funding for capital share redemptions. The SCA provides for a commitment of $900 million for the period October 4, 2018 through October 3, 2019. The Funds pay an annualized commitment fee of 0.15% of the unused portion of the SCA. The Fund’s portion of the commitment fee for the unused amount, allocated based upon a method approved by the Board, is accrued daily and paid quarterly. The interest on borrowings under the SCA is paid monthly and at a per annum interest rate based upon a contractual spread plus the higher of (1) the effective federal funds rate, (2) the1-month LIBOR rate or (3) zero percent.

Certain affiliated registered investment companies that are parties to the SCA include portfolios that are subject to a predetermined mathematical formula used to manage certain benefit guarantees offered under variable annuity contracts. The formula may result in large scale asset flows into and out of these portfolios. Consequently, these portfolios may be more likely to utilize the SCA for purposes of funding redemptions. It may be possible for those portfolios to fully exhaust the committed amount of the SCA, thereby requiring the Manager to allocate available funding per a Board-approved methodology designed to treat the Funds in the SCA equitably.

The Fund did not utilize the SCA during the period ended February 28, 2019.

8. Risk of Investing in the Fund

The Fund’s risks include, but are not limited to, some or all of the risks discussed below:

Authorized Participant Concentration Risk:Only an Authorized Participants may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund has a limited number of intermediaries that act as Authorized Participants and none of these Authorized Participants is or will be obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent that these intermediaries exit the business or are unable to or choose not to proceed with creation and/ or redemption orders with respect to the Fund and no other Authorized Participants creates or redeems, shares of the Fund may trade at a substantial discount or premium to NAV, may trade at larger spreads and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting.

Bond Obligations Risk:The Fund’s holdings, share price, yield and total return may fluctuate in response to bond market movements. The value of bonds may decline for issuer-related reasons, including management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods and services. Certain types of fixed-income

42

obligations also may be subject to “call and redemption risk”, which is the risk that the issuer may call a bond held by the Fund for redemption before it matures and the Fund may not be able to reinvest at the same level and therefore would earn less income.

ETF Shares Trading Risk:Fund shares are listed for trading on the Exchange and the shares are bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. The market prices of the shares of the Fund are expected to fluctuate in response to changes in the Fund’s NAV, the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings and supply and demand for shares of the Fund. We cannot predict whether shares of the Fund will trade above, below or at their NAV. Trading on the Exchange, including trading of Fund shares, may be halted in certain circumstances and shareholders may not be able to sell Fund shares at the time or price desired. During periods of stressed market conditions, the market for the shares of the Fund may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the Fund’s portfolio investments. This adverse effect on the liquidity of the Fund’s shares could lead to differences between the market price of the Fund’s shares and the NAV of those shares. There can be no assurance that the requirements of the Exchange to maintain the listing of shares of the Fund will continue to be met. At times, trading in the securities of ETFs has become volatile and unpredictable and the price of ETF shares has diverged from market driven fundamentals. Since the Fund is new, an active secondary market for the shares of the Fund may not develop or may not continue once developed.

Interest Rate Risk:The value of an investment may go down when interest rates rise. A rise in rates tends to have a greater impact on the prices of longer term or duration securities. When interest rates fall, the issuers of debt obligations may prepay principal more quickly than expected, and the Fund may be required to reinvest the proceeds at a lower interest rate. This is referred to as “prepayment risk”. When interest rates rise, debt obligations may be repaid more slowly than expected, and the value of the Fund’s holdings may fall sharply. This is referred to as “extension risk”. The Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk as a result of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board’s policies. The Fund’s investments may lose value if short-term or long- term interest rates rise sharply or in a manner not anticipated by the subadviser.

Liquidity Risk:The Fund may invest in instruments that trade in lower volumes and are less liquid than other investments. Liquidity risk exists when particular investments made by the Fund are difficult to purchase or sell. Liquidity risk includes the risk that the Fund may make investments that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Investments that are illiquid or that trade in lower volumes may be more difficult to value. If the Fund is forced to sell these investments to pay redemption proceeds or for other reasons, the Fund may lose money. In addition, when there is no willing buyer and investments may not reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment, the Fund may incur higher transaction costs when executing trade orders of a given size. The reduction in dealer market-making capacity in the fixed-income markets that has occurred in recent

PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF 43

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)

years also has the potential to reduce liquidity. An inability to sell a portfolio position can adversely affect the Fund’s value or prevent the Fund from being able to take advantage of other investment opportunities.

Market and Credit Risk:Securities markets may be volatile and the market prices of the Fund’s securities may decline. Securities fluctuate in price based on changes in an issuer’s financial condition and overall market and economic conditions. If the market prices of the securities owned by the Fund fall, the value of an investment in the Fund will decline. Additionally, the Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Derivatives Risk:Derivatives involve special risks and costs and may result in losses to the Fund. The successful use of derivatives requires sophisticated management, and, to the extent that derivatives are used, the Fund will depend on the subadviser’s ability to analyze and manage derivatives transactions. The prices of derivatives may move in unexpected ways, especially in abnormal market conditions. Some derivatives are “leveraged” and therefore may magnify or otherwise increase investment losses to the Fund. The Fund’s use of derivatives may also increase the amount of taxes payable by shareholders. Other risks arise from the potential inability to terminate or sell derivatives positions. A liquid secondary market may not always exist for the Fund’s derivatives positions. In fact, manyover-the-counter derivative instruments will not have liquidity beyond the counterparty to the instrument.Over-the-counter derivative instruments also involve the risk that the other party will not meet its obligations to the Fund.

9. Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Reporting Updates

In August 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted amendments to RegulationS-X to update and simplify the disclosure requirements for registered investment companies by eliminating requirements that are redundant or duplicative of US GAAP requirements or other SEC disclosure requirements. The new amendments require the presentation of the total, rather than the components, of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and the total, rather than the components, of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The amendments also removed the requirement for the parenthetical disclosure of undistributed net investment income on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets and certain tax adjustments that were reflected in the Notes to Financial Statements. All of these have been reflected in the Fund’s financial statements.

44

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)No. 2018-13, which changes certain fair value measurement disclosure requirements. The new ASU, in addition to other modifications and additions, removes the requirement to disclose the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and the Fund’s policy for the timing of transfers between levels. The amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Manager has evaluated the implications of certain provisions of the ASU and has determined to early adopt aspects related to the removal and modification of certain fair value measurement disclosures under the ASU effective immediately. At this time, the Manager is evaluating the implications of certain other provisions of the ASU related to new disclosure requirements and any impact on the financial statement disclosures has not yet been determined.

Your Fund’s Performance(unaudited)

Performance data quoted represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the past performance data quoted. An investor may obtain performance data as of the most recent month-end by visiting our website atpgiminvestments.com or by calling(800) 225-1852.

Source: PGIM Investments LLC and Lipper Inc.

*The market price is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the listing exchange, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. The first day of secondary market trading is typically several days after the date on which the Fund commenced investment operations; therefore, the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for the period from inception of investment operations to the first day of secondary market trading to calculate the market price returns.

Since inception returns for the Index and the Lipper Average are measured from the closest month-end to the Fund’s inception date.

The returns in the table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or following the redemption or sale of Fund shares.

Market returns do not include brokerage commissions that may be payable on secondary market transactions. If brokerage commissions were included, market returns would be lower. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, have been reinvested in the Fund at market price and NAV, respectively.

Benchmark Definitions

Bloomberg Barclays US High Yield Very Liquid Index (VLI)—The Bloomberg Barclays US High Yield Very Liquid Index is a component of the US Corporate High Yield Index that is designed to track a more liquid component of the USD-denominated, high yield, fixed rate corporate bond market. The US High Yield VLI uses the same eligibility criteria as the US Corporate High Yield Index, but includes only the three largest bonds from each issuer that have a minimum amount outstanding of USD500mn and less than five years from issue date. The Index also limits the exposure of each issuer to 2% of the total market value and redistributes any excess market value index-wide on a pro rata basis.

Lipper High Yield Funds Average—The Lipper High Yield Funds Average (Lipper Average) is based on the average return of all funds in the Lipper High Yield Funds universe for the periods noted. Funds in the Lipper Average aim at high (relative) current yield from fixed income securities, have no quality or maturity restrictions, and tend to invest in lower-grade debt issues.

Investors cannot invest directly in an index or average. The returns for the Index would be lower if they included the effects of sales charges, operating expenses of a mutual fund, or taxes. Returns for the Lipper Average reflect the deduction of operating expenses of a mutual fund, but not sales charges or taxes.

Fees and Expenses(unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including investment management fees. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 held through the period ended February 28, 2019. The example is for illustrative purposes only.

Actual Expenses

The information under each column in the line entitled “Actual” on the following page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number on the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The information under each column in the line entitled “Hypothetical” on the following page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of Fund shares. Therefore, the ending account values and expenses paid for the period are 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.

PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF 29

Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited)

PGIM ETF Trust (the “Trust”) is a diversified,open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), and operated as an exchange-traded fund. The Trust was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on October 23, 2017 and consists of six separate series (each a “Fund” or collectively, the “Funds”): PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF, PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaLarge-Cap Core ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Growth ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha Small- Cap Value ETF and PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha International Equity ETF.

These financial statements relate only to PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF, which commenced investment operations on September 24, 2018.

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation.

1. Accounting Policies

The Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 Financial Services—Investment Companies. The following accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Fund consistently follows such policies in the preparation of its financial statements.

Securities Valuation:The Fund holds securities and other assets and liabilities that are fair valued at the close of each day (generally, 4:00 PM Eastern time) the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted valuation procedures for security valuation under which fair valuation responsibilities have been delegated to PGIM Investments LLC (“PGIM Investments” or the “Manager”). Pursuant to the Board’s delegation, the Manager has established a Valuation Committee responsible for supervising the fair valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities. The valuation procedures permit the Fund to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers, and alternative valuation methods when market quotations are either not readily available or not deemed representative of fair value. A record of the Valuation Committee’s actions is subject to the Board’s review, approval, and ratification at its next regularly scheduled quarterly meeting.

For the fiscal reportingperiod-end, securities and other assets and liabilities were fair valued at the close of the last U.S. business day. Trading in certain foreign securities may

30

occur when the NYSE is closed (including weekends and holidays). Because such foreign securities trade in markets that are open on weekends and U.S. holidays, the values of some of the Fund’s foreign investments may change on days when investors cannot purchase or redeem Fund shares.

Various inputs determine how the Fund’s investments are valued, all of which are categorized according to the three broad levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) detailed in the Schedule of Investments and referred to herein as the “fair value hierarchy” in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820 - Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

Investments inopen-end,non-exchange-traded mutual funds are valued at their net asset values as of the close of the NYSE on the date of valuation. These securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since they may be purchased or sold at their net asset values on the date of valuation.

Fixed income securities traded in the OTC market are generally classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Such fixed income securities are typically valued using the market approach which generally involves obtaining data from an approved independent third-party vendor source. The Fund utilizes the market approach as the primary method to value securities when market prices of identical or comparable instruments are available. The third-party vendors’ valuation techniques used to derive the evaluated bid price are based on evaluating observable inputs, including but not limited to, yield curves, yield spreads, credit ratings, deal terms, tranche level attributes, default rates, cash flows, prepayment speeds, broker/dealer quotations and reported trades. Certain Level 3 securities are also valued using the market approach when obtaining a single broker quote or when utilizing transaction prices for identical securities that have been used in excess of five business days. During the reporting period, there were no changes to report with respect to the valuation approach and/or valuation techniques discussed above.

Bank loans are generally valued at prices provided by approved independent pricing vendors. The pricing vendors utilize broker/dealer quotations and provide prices based on the average of such quotations. Bank loans valued using such vendor prices are generally classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Bank loans valued based on a single broker quote or at the original transaction price in excess of five business days are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Securities and other assets that cannot be priced according to the methods described above are valued based on pricing methodologies approved by the Board. In the event that unobservable inputs are used when determining such valuations, the securities will be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

When determining the fair value of securities, some of the factors influencing the valuation include: the nature of any restrictions on disposition of the securities; assessment of the general liquidity of the securities; the issuer’s financial condition and the markets in which it does business; the cost of the investment; the size of the holding and the capitalization of

PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF 31

Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (continued)

the issuer; the prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities; any available analyst media or other reports or information deemed reliable by the Manager regarding the issuer or the markets or industry in which it operates. Using fair value to price securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent closing price and from the price used by other unaffiliated mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.

Illiquid Securities:Pursuant to Rule22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Fund has adopted a Board approved Liquidity Risk Management Program (“LRMP”) that requires, among other things, that the Fund limit its illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of net assets. Illiquid securities are those that, because of the absence of a readily available market or due to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, may not reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. The Fund may find it difficult to sell illiquid securities at the time considered most advantageous by its Subadviser and may incur transaction costs that would not be incurred in the sale of securities that were freely marketable.

Restricted Securities:Securities acquired in unregistered, private sales from the issuing company or from an affiliate of the issuer are considered restricted as to disposition under federal securities law (‘restricted securities”). Such restricted securities are valued pursuant to the valuation procedures noted above. Restricted securities that would otherwise be considered illiquid investments pursuant to the Fund’s LRMP because of legal restrictions on resale to the general public may be traded among qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. Therefore, these Rule 144A securities, as well as commercial paper that is sold in private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, may be classified higher than “Illiquid” under the LRMP (i.e. “moderately liquid” or “less liquid” investments). However, the liquidity of the Fund’s investments in restricted securities could be impaired if trading does not develop or declines.

Financial Futures Contracts:A financial futures contract is an agreement to purchase (long) or sell (short) an agreed amount of securities at a set price for delivery on a future date. Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This amount is known as the “initial margin”. Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin”, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security. Such variation margin is recorded for financial statement purposes on a daily basis as unrealized gain (loss). When the contract expires or is closed, the gain (loss) is realized and is presented in the Statement of Operations as net realized gain (loss) on futures transactions.

32

The Fund invested in financial futures contracts in order to hedge its existing portfolio securities, or securities the Fund intends to purchase, against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates. Should interest rates move unexpectedly, the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss. The use of futures transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying hedged assets. Since futures contracts are exchange- traded, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund since the exchanges’ clearinghouse acts as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures and guarantees the futures contracts against default.

Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income:Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains (losses) from investment and currency transactions are calculated on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recorded on theex-date, or for certain foreign securities, when the Fund becomes aware of such dividends. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is recorded on the accrual basis. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis, which may require the use of certain estimates by management that may differ from actual.

Taxes:It is the Fund’s policy to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net investment income and capital gains, if any, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest and capital gains, if any, are recorded, net of reclaimable amounts, at the time the related income is earned.

Dividends and Distributions:The Fund expects to declare dividends of its net investment income daily and pay such dividends monthly. Distributions of net realized capital and currency gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on theex-date. Permanent book/ tax differences relating to income and gain (loss) are reclassified amongst total distributable earnings (loss) andpaid-in capital in excess of par, as appropriate.

Estimates:The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Agreements

Pursuant to a management agreement with the Trust on behalf of the Fund (the Management Agreement), PGIM Investments LLC (“PGIM Investments”), subject to the supervision of the Board and in conformity with the stated policies of the Fund, manages both the investment operations of the Fund and the composition of the Fund’s portfolio, including the purchase, retention and disposition of assets. In connection therewith, the Manager is obligated to keep

PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF 33

Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (continued)

certain books and records of the Fund. The Manager is authorized to enter into subadvisory agreements for investment advisory services in connection with the management of the Fund. The Manager will continue to have responsibility for all investment advisory services performed pursuant to any such subadvisory agreements. PGIM Investments will review the performance of the investment subadviser(s) and make recommendations to the Board with respect to the retention of investment subadvisers and the renewal of contracts. The Manager also administers the Fund’s business affairs and, in connection therewith, furnishes the Fund with office facilities, together with those ordinary clerical and bookkeeping services which are not being furnished by the Fund’s custodian (the Custodian). The management services of PGIM Investments to the Fund are not exclusive under the terms of the Management Agreement and PGIM Investments is free to, and does, render management services to others.

The Board of Trustees of the Trust has approved a unitary management fee structure for the Fund. Under the unitary fee structure, the Manager is responsible for paying substantially all the expenses of the Fund, costs of borrowing money (including interest expenses and any loan commitment or other associated fees), taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage fees, costs of holding shareholder meetings, litigation, indemnification and extraordinary expenses.

The unitary fee paid to the Manager is accrued daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.53% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The Manager has agreed to waive a portion of its annual fee equal to the amount of the management fee received by the subadviser due to the Fund’s investment in the PGIM Institutional Money Market Fund.

The Manager has entered into a subadvisory agreement (Subadvisory Agreement) with PGIM, Inc., the Fund’s investment subadviser (the “subadviser”), which provides subadvisory services to the Fund through its PGIM Fixed Income unit. The Subadvisory Agreement provides that the subadviser will furnish investment advisory services in connection with the management of the Fund. In connection therewith, the subadviser is obligated to keep certain books and records of the Fund. Under the Subadvisory Agreement, the subadviser, subject to the supervision of PGIM Investments, is responsible for managing the assets of the Fund in accordance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions. The subadviser determines what securities and other instruments are purchased and sold for the Fund and is responsible for obtaining and evaluating financial data relevant to the Fund. PGIM Investments continues to have responsibility for all investment advisory services pursuant to the Management Agreement and supervises the subadviser’s performance of such services.

Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH”) serves as the Custodian, Transfer Agent and Administrative Agent for the Trust. Pursuant to a Custodian Agreement, BBH maintains

34

certain financial accounting books and records pursuant to an agreement with the Trust. Subcustodians provide custodial services for anynon-US assets held outside the United States. Pursuant to an Administrative and Transfer Agency Agreement, BBH maintains certain books and records and provides transfer agency, administrative, legal, tax support and accounting and financial reporting services for the maintenance and operations of the Trust. As the transfer and dividend disbursing agent of the Trust, BBH provides customary transfer agency services to the Trust, including the handling of shareholder communications, the processing of shareholder transactions, the maintenance of shareholder account records, the payment of dividends and distributions, and related functions. For these services, BBH receives compensation from the Manager and is reimbursed for expenses, including custodian and administration fees and certainout-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, postage, stationery, printing, allocable communication expenses and other costs. The Manager is responsible for compensating BBH under the Custodian and Administrative and Transfer Agency Agreements.

3. Other Transactions with Affiliates

The Fund may enter into certain securities purchase or sale transactions under Board approved Rule17a-7 procedures. Rule17a-7 is an exemptive rule under the 1940 Act, that subject to certain conditions, permits purchase and sale transactions among affiliated investment companies, or between an investment company and a person that is affiliated solely by reason of having a common (or affiliated) investment adviser, common directors, and/or common officers. Pursuant to the Rule17a-7 procedures and consistent with guidance issued by the SEC, the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) prepares a quarterly summary of all such transactions for submission to the Board, together with the CCO’s written representation that all such17a-7 transactions were effected in accordance with the Fund’s Rule17a-7 procedures. Any17a-7 transactions for the reporting period are disclosed in the “Portfolio Securities” note, below.

The Fund may invest its overnight sweep cash in the PGIM Institutional Money Market Fund (the “Money Market Fund”), registered under the 1940 Act and managed by PGIM Investments. Through the Fund’s investments in the mentioned underlying fund, PGIM Investments and/or its affiliates are paid fees or compensated for providing their services. Earnings from the Money Market Fund are disclosed on the Statement of Operations as “Affiliated dividend income”.

Prudential Investment Management Services LLC (“PIMS” or the “Distributor”), acts as the distributor of the Fund pursuant to the terms of a distribution agreement (“Distribution Agreement”) between the Trust and the Distributor. The Distributor is a subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. (“Prudential”). Shares are continuously offered for sale by the Distributor only.

Although the Distributor does not receive any fees under the Distribution Agreement, the Manager or its affiliates may pay the Distributor for certain distribution related services.

4. Portfolio Securities

The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities (excluding short-term investments and U.S. Government securities) for the period ended February 28, 2019, were $60,821,551 and $33,598,513 respectively.

A summary of the cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of shares of affiliated mutual funds for the period ended February 28, 2019, is presented as follows:

Value Beginning of Period	Cost of Purchases	Proceeds from Sales	Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss)	Realized Gain (Loss)	Value, End of Period	Shares, End of Period	Dividend Income
PGIM Institutional Money Market Fund*
$  —	$29,586,740	$(28,712,000)	$26	$34	$874,800	874,538	$10,387

* The Fund did not have any capital gain distributions during the reporting period.

For the reporting period ended February 28, 2019, no17a-7 transactions were entered into by the Fund.

5. Tax Information

The United States federal income tax basis of the Fund’s investments and the net unrealized depreciation as of February 28, 2019 were as follows:

Tax Basis	$	26,959,275
Gross Unrealized Appreciation		229,353
Gross Unrealized Depreciation		(482,089	)
Net Unrealized Depreciation	$	(252,736	)

The book basis may differ from tax basis due to certaintax-related adjustments.

The Manager has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements for the current reporting period. The Fund’s federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

6. Capital and Ownership

The Fund is an exchange-traded fund, commonly known as an “ETF”. Individual shares of the Fund may only be purchased and sold in secondary market transactions through

36

brokers or other financial intermediaries. Shares of the Fund are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”), and because the shares of the Fund trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares of the Fund may trade at a price greater than NAV (a premium) or less than NAV (a discount). The Fund will issue and redeem its shares at NAV only in a large specified number of shares called a “Creation Unit” or multiples thereof to investors who have entered into an agreement with the Distributor and are authorized to transact with the Trust in Creation Units (“Authorized Participants”). A Creation Unit consists of 25,000 shares of the Fund. The Fund generally issues and redeems Creation Units in return for a specified amount of cash and/ or designated portfolio of securities. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not individually redeemable. Authorized Participants transacting in Creation Units includingnon-standard orders and whole or partial cash purchases or redemptions may also pay variable transaction fees to compensate the Fund for certain transaction costs (e.g. brokerage costs) relating to investing in portfolio securities. Such variable transaction fees, if any, are currently being waived by the Fund. In addition, fixed transaction fees are imposed for the transfer and other costs associated with the creation or redemption of Creation Units. Authorized Participants are responsible for paying these fixed transaction fees to BBH.

The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, $0.001 par value per share.

As of February 28, 2019, Prudential, through its affiliate entities, including affiliated funds, owned 625,000 shares of the Fund.

At reporting period end, one affiliated shareholder of record held greater than 5% of outstanding shares, which represented 93% of the Fund’s outstanding shares.

Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

Period ended February 28, 2019:

	Shares		Amount
Shares sold		675,000	$	27,152,937
Shares reacquired		—		—
Net increase (decrease) in shares outstanding before conversion		675,000		27,152,937
Net increase (decrease) in shares outstanding		675,000	$	27,152,937

7. Borrowings

The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, along with other affiliated registered investment companies (the “Funds”), is a party to a Syndicated Credit Agreement (“SCA”) with a group of banks. The purpose of the SCA is to provide an alternative source of temporary funding for capital share redemptions. The SCA provides for a commitment of $900 million for the period October 4, 2018 through October 3, 2019. The Funds pay an annualized commitment fee of

PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF 37

Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (continued)

0.15% of the unused portion of the SCA. The Fund’s portion of the commitment fee for the unused amount, allocated based upon a method approved by the Board, is accrued daily and paid quarterly. The interest on borrowings under the SCA is paid monthly and at a per annum interest rate based upon a contractual spread plus the higher of (1) the effective federal funds rate, (2) the1-month LIBOR rate or (3) zero percent.

Certain affiliated registered investment companies that are parties to the SCA include portfolios that are subject to a predetermined mathematical formula used to manage certain benefit guarantees offered under variable annuity contracts. The formula may result in large scale asset flows into and out of these portfolios. Consequently, these portfolios may be more likely to utilize the SCA for purposes of funding redemptions. It may be possible for those portfolios to fully exhaust the committed amount of the SCA, thereby requiring the Manager to allocate available funding per a Board-approved methodology designed to treat the Funds in the SCA equitably.

The Fund did not utilize the SCA during the period ended February 28, 2019.

8. Risk of Investing in the Fund

The Fund’s risks include, but are not limited to, some or all of the risks discussed below:

Authorized Participant Concentration Risk:Only an Authorized Participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund has a limited number of intermediaries that act as Authorized Participants and none of these Authorized Participants is or will be obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent that these intermediaries exit the business or are unable to or choose not to proceed with creation and/ or redemption orders with respect to the Fund and no other Authorized Participant creates or redeems, shares of the Fund may trade at a substantial discount or premium to NAV, may trade at larger spreads and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting.

Bond Obligations Risk:The Fund’s holdings, share price, yield and total return may fluctuate in response to bond market movements. The value of bonds may decline for issuer-related reasons, including management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods and services. Certain types of fixed-income obligations also may be subject to “call and redemption risk,” which is the risk that the issuer may call a bond held by the Fund for redemption before it matures and the Fund may not be able to reinvest at the same level and therefore would earn less income.

ETF Shares Trading Risk:Fund shares are listed for trading on the Exchange and the shares are bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. The market prices of

38

the shares of the Fund are expected to fluctuate in response to changes in the Fund’s NAV, the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings and supply and demand for shares of the Fund. We cannot predict whether shares of the Fund will trade above, below or at their NAV. Trading on the Exchange, including trading of Fund shares, may be halted in certain circumstances and shareholders may not be able to sell Fund shares at the time or price desired. During periods of stressed market conditions, the market for the shares of the Fund may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the Fund’s portfolio investments. This adverse effect on the liquidity of the Fund’s shares could lead to differences between the market price of the Fund’s shares and the NAV of those shares. There can be no assurance that the requirements of the Exchange to maintain the listing of shares of the Fund will continue to be met. At times, trading in the securities of ETFs has become volatile and unpredictable and the price of ETF shares has diverged from market driven fundamentals. Since the Fund is new, an active secondary market for the shares of the Fund may not develop or may not continue once developed.

Interest Rate Risk:The value of an investment may go down when interest rates rise. A rise in rates tends to have a greater impact on the prices of longer term or duration securities. When interest rates fall, the issuers of debt obligations may prepay principal more quickly than expected, and the Fund may be required to reinvest the proceeds at a lower interest rate. This is referred to as “prepayment risk.” When interest rates rise, debt obligations may be repaid more slowly than expected, and the value of the Fund’s holdings may fall sharply. This is referred to as “extension risk. The Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk as a result of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board’s policies. The Fund’s investments may lose value if short-term or long- term interest rates rise sharply or in a manner not anticipated by the subadviser.

Liquidity Risk:The Fund may invest in instruments that trade in lower volumes and are less liquid than other investments. Liquidity risk exists when particular investments made by the Fund are difficult to purchase or sell. Liquidity risk includes the risk that the Fund may make investments that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Investments that are illiquid or that trade in lower volumes may be more difficult to value. If the Fund is forced to sell these investments to pay redemption proceeds or for other reasons, the Fund may lose money. In addition, when there is no willing buyer and investments may not reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment, the Fund may incur higher transaction costs when executing trade orders of a given size. The reduction in dealer market-making capacity in the fixed-income markets that has occurred in recent years also has the potential to reduce liquidity. An inability to sell a portfolio position can adversely affect the Fund’s value or prevent the Fund from being able to take advantage of other investment opportunities.

Market and Credit Risk:Securities markets may be volatile and the market prices of the Fund’s securities may decline. Securities fluctuate in price based on changes in an issuer’s financial condition and overall market and economic conditions. If the market prices of the

PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF 39

Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (continued)

securities owned by the Fund fall, the value of an investment in the Fund will decline. Additionally, the Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Derivatives Risk:Derivatives involve special risks and costs and may result in losses to the Fund. The successful use of derivatives requires sophisticated management, and, to the extent that derivatives are used, the Fund will depend on the subadviser’s ability to analyze and manage derivatives transactions. The prices of derivatives may move in unexpected ways, especially in abnormal market conditions. Some derivatives are “leveraged” and therefore may magnify or otherwise increase investment losses to the Fund. The Fund’s use of derivatives may also increase the amount of taxes payable by shareholders. Other risks arise from the potential inability to terminate or sell derivatives positions. A liquid secondary market may not always exist for the Fund’s derivatives positions. In fact, manyover-the-counter derivative instruments will not have liquidity beyond the counterparty to the instrument.Over-the-counter derivative instruments also involve the risk that the other party will not meet its obligations to the Fund.

9. Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Reporting Updates

In August 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted amendments to RegulationS-X to update and simplify the disclosure requirements for registered investment companies by eliminating requirements that are redundant or duplicative of US GAAP requirements or other SEC disclosure requirements. The new amendments require the presentation of the total, rather than the components, of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and the total, rather than the components, of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The amendments also removed the requirement for the parenthetical disclosure of undistributed net investment income on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets and certain tax adjustments that were reflected in the Notes to Financial Statements. All of these have been reflected in the Fund’s financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)No. 2018-13, which changes certain fair value measurement disclosure requirements. The new ASU, in addition to other modifications and additions, removes the requirement to disclose the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and the Fund’s policy for the timing of transfers between levels. The amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Manager has evaluated the implications of certain provisions of the ASU and has determined to early adopt aspects related to the

40

removal and modification of certain fair value measurement disclosures under the ASU effective immediately. At this time, the Manager is evaluating the implications of certain other provisions of the ASU related to new disclosure requirements and any impact on the financial statement disclosures has not yet been determined.

Board Approval of Advisory Agreements(unaudited)

Initial Approval of the Fund’s Advisory Agreements

The Board of Trustees of the PGIM ETF Trust (the Board) considered the proposed management agreement with PGIM Investments LLC (the Manager) and the proposed subadvisory agreement with PGIM, Inc. (PGIM), through its PGIM Fixed Income (PFI) division, and PGIM Limited to serve as the subadvisers (together, the Subadviser) with respect to the PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF (the Fund) prior to the Fund’s commencement of operations. The Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, met on June 20, 2018 (the Meeting) and approved the agreements for an initialtwo-year period, after concluding that approval of the agreements was in the best interests of the Fund.

In advance of the Meeting, the Board requested and received materials relating to the agreements, and had the opportunity to ask questions and request further information in connection with its considerations.

In approving the agreements, the Board, including the Independent Trustees advised by independent legal counsel, considered the factors it deemed relevant, including the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided to the Fund by the Manager and the Subadviser; any relevant comparable performance information and the Subadviser’s qualifications and track record in serving other affiliated funds; and the fees proposed to be paid by the Fund to the Manager and by the Manager to the Subadviser under the agreements. In connection with its deliberations, the Board considered information provided by the Manager and the Subadviser at or in advance of the Meeting. The Board also considered information that the Trustees received throughout the year regarding the Manager and the Subadviser in their capacity as directors or trustees of other funds in the Prudential organization. In their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any single factor which alone was responsible for the Board’s decision to approve the agreements with respect to the Fund.

The Trustees determined that the overall arrangements between the Fund and the Manager, which will serve as the Fund’s investment manager pursuant to a management agreement, and between the Manager and the Subadviser, which will serve as the Fund’s subadviser pursuant to the terms of a subadvisory agreement, are appropriate in light of the services to be performed and the fees to be charged under the agreements and such other matters as the Trustees considered relevant in the exercise of their business judgment.

The material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Trustees’ reaching their determinations to approve the agreements are discussed below.

Nature, quality and extent of services

With respect to the Manager, the Board noted that it had received and considered information about the Manager at the Meeting, including information relating to the

PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF

Board Approval of Advisory Agreements(continued)

approval and renewal, as applicable, of the management agreements between the Manager and the other Prudential Retail Funds, as well as information received at other regular meetings throughout the year of the Prudential Retail Funds, regarding the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Manager. The Board considered the services to be provided by the Manager, including but not limited to the oversight of the Subadviser, as well as the provision of fund recordkeeping, compliance and other services to the Fund. With respect to the Manager’s oversight of the Subadviser, the Board noted that the Manager’s Strategic Investment Research Group, which is a business unit of the Manager, is responsible for monitoring and reporting to the Manager’s senior management on the performance and operations of the Subadviser. The Board also noted that the Manager pays the salaries of the officers of the Trust and Trustees of the Trust who are affiliated persons of the Manager or Subadviser. The Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the Manager’s senior management responsible for the oversight of the Fund and the Subadviser, and was also provided with information pertaining to the Manager’s organizational structure, senior management, investment operations and other relevant information. The Board noted that the Manager had engaged personnel and consultants with experience in the management of exchanged-traded funds. The Board further noted that it received favorable compliance reports from the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer as to the Manager for services provided to other Prudential Retail Funds. The Board noted that it had concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Manager to the other Prudential Retail Funds and determined that it was reasonable to conclude that the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided by the Manager under the management agreement for the Fund would be similar in nature to those provided under the other management agreements.

With respect to the Subadviser, the Board noted that it had received and considered information about the Subadviser at the Meeting, including information relating to the approval and renewal, as applicable, of subadvisory agreements between the Manager and the Subadviser with respect to other Prudential Retail Funds, as well as at other regular meetings throughout the year, regarding the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Subadviser. The Board considered, among other things, the qualifications, background and experience of the Subadviser’s portfolio managers who will be responsible for theday-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio, as well as information on the Subadviser’s organizational structure, senior management, investment operations and other relevant information. The Board also considered theSub-Adviser’s experience managing other similar investment strategies. The Board further noted that it received favorable compliance reports from the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer as to the Subadviser for services provided to other Prudential Retail Funds. The Board noted that it was satisfied with the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Subadviser with respect to the other Prudential Retail Funds served by the Subadviser and determined that it was reasonable to conclude that the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided by the

Subadviser under the subadvisory agreement for the Fund would be similar in nature to those provided under the other subadvisory agreements. The Board noted that the Subadviser is affiliated with the Manager.

Performance

Because the Fund had not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Fund had not yet been determined, no investment performance for the Fund existed for Board review. The Fund’s strategy is a new strategy for the Subadviser. The Manager will provide information relating to performance to the Board in connection with subsequent reviews of the management agreement and subadvisory agreement.

Fee Rates

The Board considered the proposed management fees of 0.53% of the average daily value of the Fund’s investable assets to be paid by the Fund to the Manager and the proposed subadvisory fees of 0.265% of the Fund’s investable assets to be paid by the Manager to the Subadviser. The Board also considered that for purposes of calculating the proposed management and subadvisory fees, investable assets of the Fund means the Fund’s net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes. The Board considered the nature of the management fee as a unitary fee and that the Manager would be responsible for the Fund’s expenses except for those expenses reflected in the management agreement as remaining the responsibility of the Fund. Under the Management Agreement, the Fund generally will be responsible for only paying interest and other borrowing expenses, taxes, brokerage expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, expenses associated with shareholder meetings and proxy statements, extraordinary expenses and future12b-1 fees (if any).

The Board considered information provided by the Manager comparing the Fund’s proposed management fee rate and total expenses (including the effects of leverage) to the Lipper 15(c) Peer Group. The Board noted that the Fund’s management fee was in the first quartile and anticipated total expenses were in the first quartile of the Lipper Peer Group (first quartile being the lowest fee) based upon net assets assuming outstanding leverage.

The Board concluded that the proposed management fee and total expenses were reasonable in light of the services to be provided.

Profitability

Because the Fund had not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Fund had not yet been determined, the Board noted that there was no historical profitability information with respect to the Fund to be reviewed. The Board noted that it would review profitability information in connection with subsequent renewals of the management and subadvisory agreements.

Board Approval of Advisory Agreements(continued)

Economies of Scale

Because the Fund had not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Fund had not yet been determined, the Board noted that there was no historical information regarding economies of scale with respect to the Fund to be reviewed. The Board noted that it would review such information in connection with subsequent renewals of the management and subadvisory agreements.

Other Benefits to the Manager and the Subadviser

The Board considered potential“fall-out” or ancillary benefits anticipated to be received by the Manager and the Subadviser. The Board concluded that any potential benefits to be derived by the Manager were similar to benefits derived by the Manager in connection with its management of the other affiliated funds managed by the Manager, which are reviewed on an annual basis. The Board also concluded that any potential benefits to be derived by the Subadviser were consistent with those generally derived by subadvisers to the Prudential Retail Funds, and that those benefits are reviewed on an annual basis. The Board concluded that any potential benefits derived by the Manager and the Subadviser were consistent with the types of benefits generally derived by investment managers and subadvisers to funds.

*    *    *

After full consideration of these and other factors, the Board concluded that the approval of the agreements was in the best interests of the Fund.

Letter from the President

Dear Shareholder:

We hope you find the semiannual report for the PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha ETFs informative and useful. The report covers performance for each of the Funds for the period beginning with each Fund’s inception date and ending February 28, 2019.

Your financial advisor can help you create a diversified investment plan that may include funds covering all the basic asset classes and that reflects your personal investor profile and risk tolerance. However, diversification and asset allocation strategies do not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.

PGIM is a top-10 global investment manager with more than $1 trillion in assets under management. This investment expertise allows us to deliver actively managed funds and strategies to meet the needs of investors around the globe.

Thank you for choosing our family of funds.

Sincerely,

Stuart S. Parker, President

The first day of secondary market trading is typically several days after the date on which the Fund commenced investment operations; therefore, the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for the period from inception of investment operations to the first day of secondary market trading to calculate the market price returns.

Since inception returns for the Index and the Lipper Average are measured from the closest month-end to the Fund’s inception date.

The returns in the table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or following the sale or redemption of Fund shares.

Market returns do not include brokerage commissions that may be payable on secondary market transactions. If brokerage commissions were included, market returns would be lower. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, have been reinvested in the Fund at market price and NAV, respectively.

Benchmark Definitions

MSCI EAFE Index—The MSCI EAFE Index is a free-float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure the equity performance of developed markets, excluding the US & Canada.

Lipper International Multi-Cap Core Funds Average—The Lipper International Multi-Cap Core Funds Average includes funds that invest in a variety of market capitalization ranges without concentrating 75% of their equity assets in any one market capitalization range over an extended period of time. International multi-cap core funds typically have average characteristics compared to the MSCI EAFE Index.

Investors cannot invest directly in an index or average. The returns for the Index would be lower if they included the effects of sales charges, operating expenses of a mutual fund, or taxes. Returns for the Lipper Average reflect the deduction of operating expenses of a mutual fund, but not sales charges or taxes.

Fees and Expenses(unaudited)

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including investment management fees. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 held through the period ended February 28, 2019. The example is for illustrative purposes only.

Actual Expenses

The information under each column in the line entitled “Actual” on the following page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number on the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The information under each column in the line entitled “Hypothetical” on the following page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a 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, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of Fund shares. Therefore, the ending account values and expenses paid for the period are 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(unaudited)

PGIM ETF Trust (the “Trust”) is a diversified,open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and operated as an exchange-traded fund. The Trust was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on October 23, 2017 and consists of six separate series (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”): PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF, PGIM Active High Yield Bond ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaLarge-Cap Core ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Growth ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Value ETF and PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha International Equity ETF.

These financial statements relate only to the following Funds: PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha Large- Cap Core ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Growth ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Value ETF and PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha International Equity ETF, which commenced investment operations on October 17, 2018, November 13, 2018, November 13, 2018 and December 4, 2018, respectively.

The investment objective of each Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital.

1. Accounting Policies

The Funds follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 Financial Services—Investment Companies. The following accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Funds consistently follow such policies in the preparation of its financial statements.

Securities Valuation:The Funds hold securities and other assets and liabilities that are fair valued at the close of each day (generally, 4:00 PM Eastern time) the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted valuation procedures for security valuation under which fair valuation responsibilities have been delegated to PGIM Investments LLC (“PGIM Investments” or the “Manager”). Pursuant to the Board’s delegation, the Manager has established a Valuation Committee responsible for supervising the fair valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities. The valuation procedures permit the Fund to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers, and alternative valuation methods when market quotations are either not readily available or not deemed representative of fair value. A record of the Valuation Committee’s actions is subject to the Board’s review, approval, and ratification at its next regularly scheduled quarterly meeting.

PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha ETFs 109

Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (continued)

For the fiscal reporting period-end, securities and other assets and liabilities were fair valued at the close of the last U.S. business day. Trading in certain foreign securities may occur when the NYSE is closed (including weekends and holidays). Because such foreign securities trade in markets that are open on weekends and U.S. holidays, the values of some of the Funds’ foreign investments may change on days when investors cannot purchase or redeem Funds shares.

Various inputs determine how the Funds’ investments are valued, all of which are categorized according to the three broad levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) detailed in the Schedule of Investments and referred to herein as the “fair value hierarchy” in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 820—Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

Common and preferred stocks, exchange-traded funds, and derivative instruments, such as futures or options, that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of trading on the applicable exchange where the security principally trades. Securities traded via NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. To the extent these securities are valued at the last sale price or NASDAQ official closing price, they are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. In the event that no sale or official closing price on valuation date exists, these securities are generally valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices, or at the last bid price in the absence of an ask price. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Investments inopen-end,non-exchange-traded mutual funds are valued at their net asset values as of the close of the NYSE on the date of valuation. These securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since they may be purchased or sold at their net asset values on the date of valuation.

Securities and other assets that cannot be priced according to the methods described above are valued based on pricing methodologies approved by the Board. In the event that unobservable inputs are used when determining such valuations, the securities will be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

When determining the fair value of securities, some of the factors influencing the valuation include: the nature of any restrictions on disposition of the securities; assessment of the general liquidity of the securities; the issuer’s financial condition and the markets in which it does business; the cost of the investment; the size of the holding and the capitalization of the issuer; the prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities; any available analyst media or other reports or information deemed reliable by the Manager regarding the issuer or the markets or industry in which it operates.

110

Using fair value to price securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent closing price and from the price used by other unaffiliated mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.

Illiquid Securities:Pursuant to Rule22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Fund has adopted a Board approved Liquidity Risk Management Program (“LRMP”) that requires, among other things, that the Fund limit its illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of net assets. Illiquid securities are those that, because of the absence of a readily available market or due to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, may not reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. The Fund may find it difficult to sell illiquid securities at the time considered most advantageous by its Subadviser and may incur transaction costs that would not be incurred in the sale of securities that were freely marketable.

Restricted Securities:Securities acquired in unregistered, private sales from the issuing company or from an affiliate of the issuer are considered restricted as to disposition under federal securities law (‘restricted securities”). Such restricted securities are valued pursuant to the valuation procedures noted above. Restricted securities that would otherwise be considered illiquid investments pursuant to the Fund’s LRMP because of legal restrictions on resale to the general public may be traded among qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. Therefore, these Rule 144A securities, as well as commercial paper that is sold in private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, may be classified higher than “Illiquid” under the LRMP (i.e. “moderately liquid” or “less liquid” investments). However, the liquidity of the Fund’s investments in restricted securities could be impaired if trading does not develop or declines.

Foreign Currency Translation:The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

(i) market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities—at the current rates of exchange;

(ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses—at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the net assets of the Funds are presented at the foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Funds do not generally isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of long-term portfolio securities held at the end of the period. Similarly, the Funds do not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of long-term portfolio securities sold during the period. Accordingly, holding period realized foreign currency gains (losses) are included in the reported net realized gains (losses) on investment transactions. Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions (where

PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha ETFs 111

Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (continued)

applicable) represent net foreign exchange gains (losses) from the disposition of holdings of foreign currencies, currency gains (losses) realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest, dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized currency gains (losses) from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities (other than investments) at period end exchange rates are reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currencies (where applicable).

Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income:Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains (losses) from investment and currency transactions are calculated on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recorded on theex-date, or for certain foreign securities, when a Fund becomes aware of such dividends. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is recorded on the accrual basis. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis, which may require the use of certain estimates by management that may differ from actual.

Taxes:It is the Funds’ policy to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net investment income and capital gains, if any, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest and capital gains, if any, are recorded, net of reclaimable amounts, at the time the related income is earned.

Dividends and Distributions:The Funds expect to pay dividends from net investment income quarterly. Distributions of net realized capital and currency gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on theex-date. Permanent book/tax differences relating to income and gain (loss) are reclassified amongst total distributable earnings (loss) andpaid-in capital in excess of par, as appropriate.

Estimates:The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Agreements

The Funds may enter into certain securities purchase or sale transactions under Board approved Rule17a-7 procedures. Rule17a-7 is an exemptive rule under the 1940 Act, that subject to certain conditions, permits purchase and sale transactions among affiliated investment companies, or between an investment company and a person that is affiliated solely by reason of having a common (or affiliated) investment adviser, common directors, and/or common officers. Pursuant to the Rule17a-7 procedures and consistent with guidance issued by the SEC, the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) prepares a quarterly summary of all such transactions for submission to the Board, together with the CCO’s written representation that all such17a-7 transactions were effected in accordance with the Funds’ Rule17a-7 procedures. Any17a-7 transactions for the reporting period are disclosed in the “Portfolio Securities” note, below.

Each Fund may invest its overnight sweep cash in the PGIM Institutional Money Market Fund (the “Money Market Fund”), registered under the 1940 Act and managed by PGIM Investments. Through each Fund’s investments in the mentioned underlying fund, PGIM Investments and/or its affiliates are paid fees or compensated for providing their services. Earnings from the Money Market Fund are disclosed on the Statement of Operations as “Affiliated dividend income”.

Prudential Investment Management Services LLC (“PIMS” or the “Distributor”), acts as the distributor of each Fund pursuant to the terms of a distribution agreement (“Distribution

114

Agreement”) between the Trust and the Distributor. The Distributor is a subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. (“Prudential”). Shares are continuously offered for sale by the Distributor only. Although the Distributor does not receive any fees under the Distribution Agreement, the Manager or its affiliates may pay the Distributor for certain distribution related services.

Each Fund’s federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

6. Capital and Ownership

Each Fund is an exchange-traded fund, commonly known as an “ETF”. Individual shares of the Funds may only be purchased and sold in secondary market transactions through brokers or other financial intermediaries. Shares of the Funds are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”), and because the shares of the Funds trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares of the Funds may trade at a price greater than NAV (a premium) or less than NAV (a discount). Each Fund will issue and redeem its shares at NAV only in a large specified number of shares called a “Creation Unit” or multiples thereof to investors who have entered into an agreement with the Distributor and are authorized to transact with the Trust in Creation Units (“Authorized Participants”). A Creation Unit of PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaLarge-Cap Core ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Growth ETF, PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Value ETF and PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha International Equity ETF consists of 50,000 shares, 50,000 shares, 50,000 shares and 100,000 shares of the Fund, respectively. The Funds generally issue and redeem Creation Units in return for a specified amount of cash and/or designated portfolio of securities. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not individually redeemable. Fixed transaction fees are imposed for the transfer and other costs associated with the creation or redemption of Creation Units. Authorized Participants are responsible for paying these fixed transaction fees to BBH.

The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, $0.001 par value per share.

116

As of February 28, 2019, Prudential, through its affiliate entities, including affiliated funds (if applicable), owned the following number of shares of the Funds:

7. Borrowings

The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, along with other affiliated registered investment companies (collectively the “SCA participants”), is a party to a Syndicated Credit Agreement (“SCA”) with a group of banks.

The purpose of the SCA is to provide an alternative source of temporary funding for capital share redemptions. The SCA provides for a commitment of $900 million for the period October 4, 2018 through October 3, 2019. The SCA participants pay an annualized commitment fee of 0.15% of the unused portion of the SCA. The SCA participants portion of the commitment fee for the unused amount, allocated based upon a method approved by the Board, is accrued daily and paid quarterly. The interest on borrowings under the SCA is paid monthly and at a per annum interest rate based upon a contractual spread plus the higher of (1) the effective federal funds rate, (2) the1-month LIBOR rate or (3) zero percent.

Certain affiliated registered investment companies that are parties to the SCA include portfolios that are subject to a predetermined mathematical formula used to manage certain benefit guarantees offered under variable annuity contracts. The formula may result in large scale asset flows into and out of these portfolios. Consequently, these portfolios may be more likely to utilize the SCA for purposes of funding redemptions. It may be

118

possible for those portfolios to fully exhaust the committed amount of the SCA, thereby requiring the Manager to allocate available funding per a Board-approved methodology designed to treat the Funds in the SCA equitably.

The Funds did not utilize the SCA during the period ended February 28, 2019.

8. Risk of Investing in the Fund

The Funds’ risks include, but are not limited to, some or all of the risks discussed below:

Authorized Participant Concentration Risk:Only an Authorized Participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Funds. The Funds have a limited number of intermediaries that act as Authorized Participants and none of these Authorized Participants is or will be obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent that these intermediaries exit the business or are unable to or choose not to proceed with creation and/or redemption orders with respect to the Funds and no other Authorized Participant creates or redeems, shares of the Funds may trade at a substantial discount or premium to NAV, may trade at larger spreads and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting.

Equity and Equity-Related Securities Risks:The value of a particular security could go down and you could lose money. In addition to an individual security losing value, the value of the equity markets or a sector in which the Series invests could go down. The Series’ holdings can vary significantly from broad market indexes and the performance of the Series can deviate from the performance of these indexes. Different parts of a market can react differently to adverse issuer, market, regulatory, political and economic developments.

ETF Shares Trading Risk:Funds shares are listed for trading on the Exchange and the shares are bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. The market prices of the shares of the Funds are expected to fluctuate in response to changes in the Funds’ NAVs, the intraday value of the Funds’ holdings and supply and demand for shares of the Funds. We cannot predict whether shares of the Funds will trade above, below or at their NAV. Trading on the Exchange, including trading of Funds shares, may be halted in certain circumstances and shareholders may not be able to sell Funds shares at the time or price desired. During periods of stressed market conditions, the market for the shares of the Funds may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the Funds’ portfolio investments. This adverse effect on the liquidity of the Funds’ shares could lead to differences between the market price of the Funds’ shares and the NAV of those shares. There can be no assurance that the requirements of the Exchange to maintain the listing of shares of the Funds will continue to be met. At times, trading in the securities of ETFs has become volatile and unpredictable and the price of ETFs shares has diverged from market driven fundamentals. Since the Funds are new, an active secondary market for the shares of the Funds may not develop or may not continue once developed.

PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha ETFs 119

Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (continued)

Risks of Investing in Equity and Mortgage Real Estate Investment Trusts (collectively equity REITs):Real estate securities are subject to similar risks as direct investments in real estate and mortgages, and their value will depend on the value of the underlying properties or the underlying loans or interests. The underlying loans may be subject to the risks of default or of payments that occur earlier or later than expected, and such loans may also includeso-called “subprime” mortgages. The value of these securities will rise and fall in response to many factors, Including economic conditions, the demand for rental property and interest rates. In particular, the value of these securities may decline when interest rates rise and will also be affected by the real estate market and by the management of the underlying properties.

In addition, investing in equity REITs involves certain unique risks in addition to those risks associated with investing in the real estate industry in general. Equity REITs may be affected by changes in the value of the underlying property owned by the equity REITs, while mortgage equity REITs may be affected by the quality of any credit extended. Equity REITs are dependent upon management skills, may not be diversified geographically or by property/mortgage asset type, and are subject to heavy cash flow dependency, default by borrowers and self-liquidation. Since equity REITs are relatively smaller in size when compared to the broader market, and smaller companies tend to be more volatile than larger companies, they may be more volatile and/or more illiquid than other types of equity securities. Equity REITs are subject to interest rate risks. Equity REITs may incur significant amounts of leverage. The Fund will indirectly bear a portion of the expenses, including management fees, paid by each equity REIT in which it invests, in addition to the expenses of the Fund.

Foreign Securities Risk:The Fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers or issuers with significant exposure to foreign markets involve additional risk. Foreign countries in which the Fund may invest may have markets that are less liquid, less regulated and more volatile than US markets. The value of the Fund’s investments may decline because of factors affecting the particular issuer as well as foreign markets and issuers generally, such as unfavorable government actions, and political or financial instability.

Market and Credit Risk:Securities markets may be volatile and the market prices of the Funds’ securities may decline. Securities fluctuate in price based on changes in an issuer’s financial condition and overall market and economic conditions. If the market prices of the securities owned by the Funds fall, the value of an investment in the Funds will decline. Additionally, the Funds may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions defaults.

9. Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Reporting Updates

In August 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted amendments to RegulationS-X to update and simplify the disclosure requirements for registered investment companies by eliminating requirements that are redundant or duplicative of US GAAP requirements or other SEC disclosure requirements. The new amendments require the presentation of the total, rather than the components, of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and the total, rather than the components, of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized gains on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The amendments also removed the requirement for the parenthetical disclosure of undistributed net investment income on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets and certain tax adjustments that were reflected in the Notes to Financial Statements. All of these have been reflected in the Funds’ financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)No. 2018-13, which changes certain fair value measurement disclosure requirements. The new ASU, in addition to other modifications and additions, removes the requirement to disclose the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and the Funds’ policy for the timing of transfers between levels. The amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Manager has evaluated the implications of certain provisions of the ASU and has determined to early adopt aspects related to the removal and modification of certain fair value measurement disclosures under the ASU effective immediately. At this time, the Manager is evaluating the implications of certain other provisions of the ASU related to new disclosure requirements and any impact on the financial statement disclosures has not yet been determined.

Approval of Advisory Agreements(unaudited)

PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaLarge-Cap Core ETF

Initial Approval of the Fund’s Advisory Agreements

The Board of Trustees of PGIM ETF Trust (the Board) considered the proposed management agreement with PGIM Investments LLC (the Manager) and the proposed subadvisory agreement with QMA LLC (QMA), formerly known as Quantitative Management Associates LLC, to serve as the subadviser (the Subadviser) with respect to the PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaLarge-Cap Core ETF (the Fund) prior to the Fund’s commencement of operations. The Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, met on June 20, 2018 (the Meeting) and approved the agreements for an initialtwo-year period, after concluding that approval of the agreements was in the best interests of the Fund.

In advance of the Meeting, the Board requested and received materials relating to the agreements, and had the opportunity to ask questions and request further information in connection with its considerations.

In approving the agreements, the Board, including the Independent Trustees advised by independent legal counsel, considered the factors it deemed relevant, including the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided to the Fund by the Manager and the Subadviser; any relevant comparable performance information and the Subadviser’s qualifications and track record in serving other affiliated funds; and the fees proposed to be paid by the Fund to the Manager and by the Manager to the Subadviser under the agreements. In connection with its deliberations, the Board considered information provided by the Manager and the Subadviser at or in advance of the Meeting. The Board also considered information that the Trustees received throughout the year regarding the Manager and the Subadviser in their capacity as directors or trustees of other funds in the Prudential organization. In their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any single factor which alone was responsible for the Board’s decision to approve the agreements with respect to the Fund.

The Trustees determined that the overall arrangements between the Fund and the Manager, which will serve as the Fund’s investment manager pursuant to a management agreement, and between the Manager and the Subadviser, which will serve as the Fund’s subadviser pursuant to the terms of a subadvisory agreement, are appropriate in light of the services to be performed and the fees to be charged under the agreements and such other matters as the Trustees considered relevant in the exercise of their business judgment. The material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Trustees’ reaching their determinations to approve the agreements are discussed below.

PGIM QMA Strategic Alpha ETFs

Approval of Advisory Agreements(continued)

Nature, Quality and Extent of Services

With respect to the Manager, the Board noted that it had received and considered information about the Manager at the Meeting, including information relating to the approval and renewal, as applicable, of the management agreements between the Manager and the other PGIM Retail Funds, as well as information received at other regular meetings throughout the year of the Prudential Retail Funds, regarding the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Manager. The Board considered the services to be provided by the Manager, including but not limited to the oversight of the Subadviser, as well as the provision of fund recordkeeping, compliance and other services to the Fund. With respect to the Manager’s oversight of the Subadviser, the Board noted that the Manager’s Strategic Investment Research Group, which is a business unit of the Manager, is responsible for monitoring and reporting to the Manager’s senior management on the performance and operations of the Subadviser. The Board also noted that the Manager pays the salaries of all of the officers of the Trust and Trustees of the Trust who are affiliated persons of the Manager or Subadviser. The Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the Manager’s senior management responsible for the oversight of the Fund and the Subadviser, and was also provided with information pertaining to the Manager’s organizational structure, senior management, investment operations and other relevant information. The Board noted that the Manager had engaged personnel and consultants with experience in the management of exchanged-traded funds. The Board further noted that it received favorable compliance reports from the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer as to the Manager for services provided to other PGIM Retail Funds. The Board noted that it had concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Manager to the other PGIM Retail Funds and determined that it was reasonable to conclude that the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided by the Manager under the management agreement for the Fund would be similar in nature to those provided under the other management agreements.

With respect to the Subadviser, the Board noted that it had received and considered information about the Subadviser at the Meeting, including information relating to the approval and renewal, as applicable, of subadvisory agreements between the Manager and the Subadviser with respect to other Prudential Retail Funds, as well as at other regular meetings throughout the year, regarding the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Subadviser. The Board considered, among other things, the qualifications, background and experience of the Subadviser’s portfolio managers who will be responsible for theday-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio, as well as information on the Subadviser’s organizational structure, senior management, investment operations and other relevant information. The Board also considered theSub-Adviser’s experience managing other similar investment strategies. The Board further noted that it received favorable compliance reports from the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer as to the Subadviser for

Visit our website at pgiminvestments.com

services provided to other Prudential Retail Funds. The Board noted that it was satisfied with the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Subadviser with respect to the other PGIM Retail Funds served by the Subadviser and determined that it was reasonable to conclude that the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided by the Subadviser under the subadvisory agreement for the Fund would be similar in nature to those provided under the other subadvisory agreements. The Board noted that the Subadviser is affiliated with the Manager.

Performance

Because the Fund had not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Fund had not yet been determined, no investment performance for the Fund existed for Board review. The Fund’s strategy is a new strategy for the Subadviser. The Manager will provide information relating to performance to the Board in connection with subsequent reviews of the management agreement and subadvisory agreement.

Fee Rates

The Board considered the proposed management fees of 0.17% of the average daily value of the Fund’s investable assets to be paid by the Fund to the Manager and the proposed subadvisory fees of 0.085% of the Fund’s investable assets to be paid by the Manager to the Subadviser. The Board also considered that for purposes of calculating the proposed management and subadvisory fees, investable assets of the Fund means the Fund’s net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes. The Board considered the nature of the management fee as a unitary fee and that the Manager would be responsible for the Fund’s expenses except for those expenses reflected in the management agreement as remaining the responsibility of the Fund. Under the Management Agreement, the Fund generally will be responsible for only paying interest and other borrowing expenses, taxes, brokerage expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, expenses associated with shareholder meetings and proxy statements, extraordinary expenses and future12b-1 fees (if any).

The Board considered information provided by the Manager comparing the Fund’s proposed management fee rate and total expenses (including the effects of leverage) to the Lipper 15(c) Peer Group. The Board noted that the Fund’s management fee was in the first quartile and anticipated total expenses were in the first quartile of the Lipper Peer Group (first quartile being the lowest fee) based upon net assets assuming outstanding leverage.

The Board concluded that the proposed management fee and total expenses were reasonable in light of the services to be provided.

Approval of Advisory Agreements(continued)

Profitability

Because the Fund had not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Fund had not yet been determined, the Board noted that there was no historical profitability information with respect to the Fund to be reviewed. The Board noted that it would review profitability information in connection with subsequent renewals of the management and subadvisory agreements.

Economies of Scale

Because the Fund had not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Fund had not yet been determined, the Board noted that there was no historical information regarding economies of scale with respect to the Fund to be reviewed. The Board noted that it would review such information in connection with subsequent renewals of the management and subadvisory agreements.

Other Benefits to the Manager and the Subadviser

The Board considered potential“fall-out” or ancillary benefits anticipated to be received by the Manager and the Subadviser. The Board concluded that any potential benefits to be derived by the Manager were similar to benefits derived by the Manager in connection with its management of the other affiliated funds managed by the Manager, which are reviewed on an annual basis. The Board also concluded that any potential benefits to be derived by the Subadviser were consistent with those generally derived by subadvisers to the Prudential Retail Funds, and that those benefits are reviewed on an annual basis. The Board concluded that any potential benefits derived by the Manager and the Subadviser were consistent with the types of benefits generally derived by investment managers and subadvisers to funds.

PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Growth ETF

Initial Approval of the Fund’s Advisory Agreements

The Board of Trustees of PGIM ETF Trust (the Board) considered the proposed management agreement with PGIM Investments LLC (the Manager) and the proposed subadvisory agreement with QMA LLC (QMA), formerly known as Quantitative Management Associates LLC, to serve as the subadviser (the Subadviser) with respect to the PGIM QMA Strategic AlphaSmall-Cap Growth ETF (the Fund) prior to the Fund’s commencement of operations. The Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, met on June 20, 2018 (the Meeting) and approved the agreements for an initialtwo-year period, after concluding that approval of the agreements was in the best interests of the Fund.

In advance of the Meeting, the Board requested and received materials relating to the agreements, and had the opportunity to ask questions and request further information in connection with its considerations.

In approving the agreements, the Board, including the Independent Trustees advised by independent legal counsel, considered the factors it deemed relevant, including the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided to the Fund by the Manager and the Subadviser; any relevant comparable performance information and the Subadviser’s qualifications and track record in serving other affiliated funds; and the fees proposed to be paid by the Fund to the Manager and by the Manager to the Subadviser under the agreements. In connection with its deliberations, the Board considered information provided by the Manager and the Subadviser at or in advance of the Meeting. The Board also considered information that the Trustees received throughout the year regarding the Manager and the Subadviser in their capacity as directors or trustees of other funds in the Prudential organization. In their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any single factor which alone was responsible for the Board’s decision to approve the agreements with respect to the Fund.

The Trustees determined that the overall arrangements between the Fund and the Manager, which will serve as the Fund’s investment manager pursuant to a management agreement, and between the Manager and the Subadviser, which will serve as the Fund’s subadviser pursuant to the terms of a subadvisory agreement, are appropriate in light of the services to be performed and the fees to be charged under the agreements and such other matters as the Trustees considered relevant in the exercise of their business judgment. The material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Trustees’ reaching their determinations to approve the agreements are discussed below.

Approval of Advisory Agreements(continued)

Nature, Quality and Extent of Services

With respect to the Manager, the Board noted that it had received and considered information about the Manager at the Meeting, including information relating to the approval and renewal, as applicable, of the management agreements between the Manager and the other Prudential Retail Funds, as well as information received at other regular meetings throughout the year of the Prudential Retail Funds, regarding the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Manager. The Board considered the services to be provided by the Manager, including but not limited to the oversight of the Subadviser, as well as the provision of fund recordkeeping, compliance and other services to the Fund. With respect to the Manager’s oversight of the Subadviser, the Board noted that the Manager’s Strategic Investment Research Group, which is a business unit of the Manager, is responsible for monitoring and reporting to the Manager’s senior management on the performance and operations of the Subadviser. The Board also noted that the Manager pays the salaries of all of the officers of the Trust and Trustees of the Trust who are affiliated persons of the Manager or the Subadviser. The Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the Manager’s senior management responsible for the oversight of the Fund and the Subadviser, and was also provided with information pertaining to the Manager’s organizational structure, senior management, investment operations and other relevant information. The Board noted that the Manager had engaged personnel and consultants with experience in the management of exchanged-traded funds. The Board further noted that it received favorable compliance reports from the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer as to the Manager for services provided to other Prudential Retail Funds. The Board noted that it had concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Manager to the other Prudential Retail Funds and determined that it was reasonable to conclude that the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided by the Manager under the management agreement for the Fund would be similar in nature to those provided under the other management agreements.

With respect to the Subadviser, the Board noted that it had received and considered information about the Subadviser at the Meeting, including information relating to the approval and renewal, as applicable, of subadvisory agreements between the Manager and the Subadviser with respect to other Prudential Retail Funds, as well as at other regular meetings throughout the year, regarding the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Subadviser. The Board considered, among other things, the qualifications, background and experience of the Subadviser’s portfolio managers who will be responsible for theday-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio, as well as information on the Subadviser’s organizational structure, senior management, investment operations and other relevant information. The Board also considered theSub-Adviser’s experience managing other similar investment strategies. The Board further noted that it received favorable

compliance reports from the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer as to the Subadviser for services provided to other Prudential Retail Funds. The Board noted that it was satisfied with the nature, quality and extent of services provided by the Subadviser with respect to the other Prudential Retail Funds served by the Subadviser and determined that it was reasonable to conclude that the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided by the Subadviser under the subadvisory agreement for the Fund would be similar in nature to those provided under the other subadvisory agreements. The Board noted that the Subadviser is affiliated with the Manager.

Performance

Because the Fund had not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Fund had not yet been determined, no investment performance for the Fund existed for Board review. The Fund’s strategy is a new strategy for the Subadviser. The Manager will provide information relating to performance to the Board in connection with subsequent reviews of the management agreement and subadvisory agreement.

Fee Rates

The Board considered the proposed management fees of 0.29% of the average daily value of the Fund’s investable assets to be paid by the Fund to the Manager and the proposed subadvisory fees of 0.145% of the Fund’s investable assets to be paid by the Manager to the Subadviser. The Board also considered that for purposes of calculating the proposed management and subadvisory fees, investable assets of the Fund means the Fund’s net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes. The Board considered the nature of the management fee as a unitary fee and that the Manager would be responsible for the Fund’s expenses except for those expenses reflected in the management agreement as remaining the responsibility of the Fund. Under the Management Agreement, the Fund generally will be responsible for only paying interest and other borrowing expenses, taxes, brokerage expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, expenses associated with shareholder meetings and proxy statements, extraordinary expenses and future12b-1 fees (if any).

The Board considered information provided by the Manager comparing the Fund’s proposed management fee rate and total expenses (including the effects of leverage) to the Lipper 15(c) Peer Group. The Board noted that the Fund’s management fee was in the first quartile and anticipated total expenses were in the first quartile of the Lipper Peer Group (first quartile being the lowest fee) based upon net assets assuming outstanding leverage.

The Board concluded that the proposed management fee and total expenses were reasonable in light of the services to be provided.

Economies of Scale

Because the Fund had not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Fund had not yet been determined, the Board noted that there was no historical information regarding economies of scale with respect to the Fund to be reviewed. The Board noted that it would review such information in connection with subsequent renewals of the management and subadvisory agreements.
