What affected the Fund's performance this period?
•U.S. equities achieved a strong gain for the 12 months ending September 30, 2024, driven by a resilient economy, the promise of generative artificial intelligence and the Federal Reserve's long-anticipated pivot, on September 18, to cutting interest rates. Growth stocks led the way, with the information technology and communication services sectors enabling transformative change and semiconductor-related stocks a particular standout.
•Against this backdrop, security selection was the primary detractor from the fund's performance versus the S&P 500® index for the fiscal year, led by information technology. Within that sector, subpar picks among software & services stocks particularly weighed on performance. A sizable underweight in the semiconductors & semiconductor equipment industry also hurt. Furthermore, a small cash position was counterproductive in a strongly rising market.
•Among individual holdings, an underweight in graphics chipmaker Nvidia (+179%) topped the fund's list of relative detractors by a wide margin the past 12 months. We considerably increased this position. Avoiding Broadcom (+111%), another strong-performing benchmark component in the semiconductors & semiconductor equipment category, also hurt. Within the health care sector, out-of-benchmark exposure to Agilon Health (-77%) further detracted. We reduced the portfolio's stake in Agilon.
•In contrast, security selection in the financials and industrials sectors notably contributed to the fund's performance versus the benchmark this period.
•Avoiding weak-performing benchmark component Chevron (-9%) in the energy sector contributed most on a relative basis. Negligible exposure to underperforming benchmark component Intel (-33%) also was helpful.
•Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the information technology sector and a lower weighting in energy.

For more complete information, you may review the Fund's next prospectus, which we expect to be available by November 29, 2024 at fundresearch.fidelity.com/prospectus/sec or upon request at 1-800-544-8544 or by sending an e-mail to fidfunddocuments@fidelity.com.
The fees associated with this class changed during the reporting year. The variations in class fees are primarily the result of the following changes: - •Management fee
- •Performance adjustment fee
The fund's transfer agent and pricing & bookkeeping fees were changed to a fixed rate effective December 1, 2023, through February 29, 2024, in anticipation of the transition to a new management fee structure. Effective March 1, 2024, the fund's management contract was amended to incorporate administrative services previously covered under separate services agreements (transfer agent and pricing & bookkeeping). The amended contract incorporates a basic fee rate that may vary by class (subject to a performance adjustment). The Adviser or an affiliate pays certain expenses of managing and operating the fund out of each class's management fee. | |

Class Z | $ 41 | 0.36% | |
What affected the Fund's performance this period?
•U.S. equities achieved a strong gain for the 12 months ending September 30, 2024, driven by a resilient economy, the promise of generative artificial intelligence and the Federal Reserve's long-anticipated pivot, on September 18, to cutting interest rates. Growth stocks led the way, with the information technology and communication services sectors enabling transformative change and semiconductor-related stocks a particular standout.
•Against this backdrop, security selection was the primary detractor from the fund's performance versus the S&P 500® index for the fiscal year, led by information technology. Within that sector, subpar picks among software & services stocks particularly weighed on performance. A sizable underweight in the semiconductors & semiconductor equipment industry also hurt. Furthermore, a small cash position was counterproductive in a strongly rising market.
•Among individual holdings, an underweight in graphics chipmaker Nvidia (+179%) topped the fund's list of relative detractors by a wide margin the past 12 months. We considerably increased this position. Avoiding Broadcom (+111%), another strong-performing benchmark component in the semiconductors & semiconductor equipment category, also hurt. Within the health care sector, out-of-benchmark exposure to Agilon Health (-77%) further detracted. We reduced the portfolio's stake in Agilon.
•In contrast, security selection in the financials and industrials sectors notably contributed to the fund's performance versus the benchmark this period.
•Avoiding weak-performing benchmark component Chevron (-9%) in the energy sector contributed most on a relative basis. Negligible exposure to underperforming benchmark component Intel (-33%) also was helpful.
•Notable changes in positioning include increased exposure to the information technology sector and a lower weighting in energy.

How has the Fund changed?
This is a summary of certain changes to the Fund since October 1, 2023. For more complete information, you may review the Fund's next prospectus, which we expect to be available by November 29, 2024 at fundresearch.fidelity.com/prospectus/sec or upon request at 1-877-208-0098 or by sending an e-mail to fidfunddocuments@fidelity.com.
The fees associated with this class changed during the reporting year. The variations in class fees are primarily the result of the following changes: - •Management fee
- •Performance adjustment fee
The fund's transfer agent and pricing & bookkeeping fees were changed to a fixed rate effective December 1, 2023, through February 29, 2024, in anticipation of the transition to a new management fee structure. Effective March 1, 2024, the fund's management contract was amended to incorporate administrative services previously covered under separate services agreements (transfer agent and pricing & bookkeeping). The amended contract incorporates a basic fee rate that may vary by class (subject to a performance adjustment). The Adviser or an affiliate pays certain expenses of managing and operating the fund out of each class's management fee. | |

The trust's Audit Committee has considered non-audit services that were not pre-approved that were provided by Deloitte Entities to Fund Service Providers to be compatible with maintaining the independence of Deloitte Entities in its(their) audit of
the Fund(s), taking into account representations from Deloitte Entities, in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules, regarding its independence from the Fund(s) and its(their) related entities and FMR’s review of the appropriateness and permissibility under applicable law of such non-audit services prior to their provision to the Fund(s) Service Providers.
Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
The trust’s Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by a fund’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to the operations or financial reporting of the fund. Prior to the commencement of any audit or non-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.
The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures to, among other purposes, provide a framework for the Committee’s consideration of non-audit services by the audit firms that audit the Fidelity funds. The policies and procedures require that any non-audit service provided by a fund audit firm to a Fidelity fund and any non-audit service provided by a fund auditor to a Fund Service Provider that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund (“Covered Service”) are subject to approval by the Audit Committee before such service is provided.
All Covered Services must be approved in advance of provision of the service either: (i) by formal resolution of the Audit Committee, or (ii) by oral or written approval of the service by the Chair of the Audit Committee (or if the Chair is unavailable, such other member of the Audit Committee as may be designated by the Chair to act in the Chair’s absence). The approval contemplated by (ii) above is permitted where the Treasurer determines that action on such an engagement is necessary before the next meeting of the Audit Committee.
Non-audit services provided by a fund audit firm to a Fund Service Provider that do not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund are reported to the Audit Committee periodically.
Non-Audit Services Approved Pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) and (ii) of Regulation S-X (“De Minimis Exception”)
There were no non-audit services approved or required to be approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the De Minimis Exception during the Fund’s(s’) last two fiscal years relating to services provided to (i) the Fund(s) or (ii) any Fund Service Provider that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund(s).
The Registrant has not retained, for the preparation of the audit report on the financial statements included in the Form N-CSR, a registered public accounting firm that has a branch or office that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) has determined that the PCAOB is unable
to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction.
The Registrant is not a “foreign issuer,” as defined in 17 CFR 240.3b-4.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended September 30, 2024
(Amounts in thousands except percentages)
1. Organization.
Fidelity Stock Selector All Cap Fund (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Capital Trust (the Trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Fund offers Class A, Class M, Class C, Stock Selector All Cap, Class K, Class I and Class Z shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Class A, Class M, Class C, Class I and Class Z are Fidelity Advisor classes. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class C shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of eight years from the initial date of purchase, with certain exceptions.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
Funds may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Schedule of Investments lists any Fidelity Central Funds held as an investment as of period end, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. An investing fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
Based on its investment objective, each Fidelity Central Fund may invest or participate in various investment vehicles or strategies that are similar to those of the investing fund. These strategies are consistent with the investment objectives of the investing fund and may involve certain economic risks which may cause a decline in value of each of the Fidelity Central Funds and thus a decline in the value of the investing fund.
Fidelity Central Fund+ | Investment Manager | Investment Objective | Investment Practices | Expense RatioA |
Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund | Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) | Seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in common stocks, allocated across different market sectors. | Foreign Securities Futures Restricted Securities | Less than .005% |
Fidelity Money Market Central Funds | Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) | Each fund seeks to obtain a high level of current income consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. | Short-term Investments | Less than .005% |
A Expenses expressed as a percentage of average net assets and are as of each underlying Central Fund's most recent annual or semi-annual shareholder report.
An unaudited holdings listing for Fidelity Stock Selector All Cap Fund, which presents its pro-rata share of securities and other investments held indirectly through its investment in Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund, is available at fidelity.com and/or institutional.fidelity.com, as applicable. A complete unaudited list of holdings for Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund is filed with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-PORT and available upon request or at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund which contain the significant accounting policies (including investment valuation policies) of that fund is available on the SEC's website or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) but does not include the underlying holdings of these funds. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period.
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
The aggregate value of investments by input level as of September 30, 2024 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Class Allocations and Expenses. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, common expenses of a fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated daily on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of a fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred, as applicable. Certain expense reductions may also differ by class, if applicable. For the reporting period, the allocated portion of income and expenses to each class as a percent of its average net assets may vary due to the timing of recording these transactions in relation to fluctuating net assets of the classes. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund (ETF). Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) for certain Funds, certain independent Trustees have elected to defer receipt of a portion of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in affiliated mutual funds, are marked-to-market and remain in a fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees presented below are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities in other receivables and other payables and accrued expenses, as applicable.
Fidelity Stock Selector All Cap Fund | $99 |
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of September 30, 2024, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to losses deferred due to wash sales.
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
Gross unrealized appreciation | $2,537,165 |
Gross unrealized depreciation | (149) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $2,537,016 |
Tax Cost | $4,392,592 |
The tax-based components of distributable earnings as of period end were as follows:
Undistributed ordinary income | $34,842 |
Undistributed long-term capital gain | $247,445 |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities and other investments | $2,537,016 |
The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:
| September 30, 2024 | September 30, 2023 |
Ordinary Income | $40,180 | $ 16,560 |
Long-term Capital Gains | 72,531 | - |
Total | $112,711 | $ 16,560 |

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee.
Effective March 1, 2024, the Fund's management contract was amended to incorporate administrative services previously covered under separate services agreements (Transfer Agent and Accounting agreements). The amended contract incorporates a basic fee rate that may vary by class (subject to a performance adjustment). The investment adviser or an affiliate pays certain expenses of managing and operating the Fund out of each class's management fee. Each class of the Fund pays a management fee to the investment adviser. The management fee is calculated and paid to the investment adviser every month. The management fee is determined by calculating a basic fee and then applying a performance adjustment. When determining a class's basic fee, a mandate rate is calculated based on the monthly average net assets of a group of funds advised by FMR within a designated asset class. A discount rate is subtracted from the mandate rate once the Fund's monthly average net assets reach a certain level. The mandate rate and discount rate may vary by class. The annual basic fee rate for a class of shares of the Fund is the lesser of (1) the class's mandate rate reduced by the class's discount rate (if applicable) or (2) the amount set forth in the following table.
| Maximum Management Fee Rate % |
Class A | .67 |
Class M | .66 |
Class C | .70 |
Stock Selector All Cap | .62 |
Class K | .54 |
Class I | .66 |
Class Z | .54 |
One-twelfth of the basic fee rate for a class is applied to the average net assets of the class for the month, giving a dollar amount which is the basic fee for the class for that month. A different management fee rate may be applicable to each class of the Fund. The difference between classes is the result of separate arrangements for class-level services and/or waivers of certain expenses. It is not the result of any difference in advisory or custodial fees or other expenses related to the management of the Fund's assets, which do not vary by class. For the portion of the reporting period on or after March 1, 2024, the total annualized management fee rates were as follows:
| Total Management Fee Rate % |
Class A | .67 |
Class M | .66 |
Class C | .67 |
Stock Selector All Cap | .62 |
Class K | .54 |
Class I | .66 |
Class Z | .54 |
Prior to March 1, 2024, the management fee was the sum of an individual fund fee rate that was based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and an annualized group fee rate that averaged .22% during the period. The group fee rate was based upon the monthly average net assets of a group of registered investment companies with which the investment adviser has management contracts. The group fee rate decreased as assets under management increased and increased as assets under management decreased. For the portion of the reporting period prior to March 1, 2024, the total annualized management fee rate was .52%.
The performance adjustment rate is calculated monthly by comparing over the performance period the Fund's performance to that of the performance adjustment index listed below.
| Performance Adjustment Index |
Fidelity Stock Selector All Cap Fund | S&P 500 Index |
For the purposes of calculating the performance adjustment for the Fund, the Fund's investment performance is based on the performance of Stock Selector All Cap. To the extent that other classes of the Fund have higher expenses, this could result in those classes bearing a larger positive performance adjustment and smaller negative performance adjustment than would be the case if each class's own performance were considered. The performance period is the most recent 36 month period. The maximum annualized performance adjustment rate is ±.20% of the Fund's average net assets over the performance period. The performance adjustment rate is divided by twelve and multiplied by the Fund's average net assets over the performance period, and the resulting dollar amount is proportionately added to or subtracted from a class's basic fee. For the entire reporting period, the total annual performance adjustment was (.19) %.
Effective March 1, 2024, the Fund's sub-advisory agreements with FMR Investment Management (UK) Limited, Fidelity Management & Research (Hong Kong) Limited, and Fidelity Management & Research (Japan) Limited were amended to provide that the investment adviser pays each sub-adviser monthly fees equal to 110% of the sub-adviser's costs for providing sub-advisory services.
Distribution and Service Plan Fees. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares. Certain classes pay Fidelity Distributors Company LLC (FDC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, separate Distribution and Service Fees, each of which is based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. In addition, FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the Fund and providing shareholder support services. For the period, the Distribution and Service Fee rates, total fees and amounts retained by FDC were as follows:
| Distribution Fee | Service Fee | Total Fees ($) | Retained by FDC ($) |
Class A | - % | .25% | 653 | 8 |
Class M | .25% | .25% | 603 | 1 |
Class C | .75% | .25% | 173 | 16 |
| | | 1,429 | 25 |
Sales Load. FDC may receive a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for selling Class A shares and 3.50% for selling Class M shares, some of which is paid to financial intermediaries for selling shares of the Fund. Depending on the holding period, FDC may receive contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class A, Class M and Class C redemptions. The deferred sales charges are 1.00% for Class C shares, 1.00% for certain purchases of Class A shares and .25% for certain purchases of Class M shares.
For the period, sales charge amounts retained by FDC were as follows:
| Retained by FDC ($) |
Class A | 36 |
Class M | 4 |
Class C A | B |
| 40 |
A When Class C shares are initially sold, FDC pays commissions from its own resources to financial intermediaries through which the sales are made.
B In the amount of less than five hundred dollars.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company LLC (FIIOC), an affiliate of the investment adviser, is the transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent for each class of the Fund. Effective March 1, 2024, the Fund's management contract was amended to incorporate transfer agent services and associated fees previously covered under a separate services agreement. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements.

Class C | .2000 |
Stock Selector All Cap | .1283 |
Class K | .0420 |
Class I | .1602 |
Class Z | .0420 |
Prior to December 1, 2023, FIIOC received account fees and asset-based fees that varied according to the account size and type of account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the Fund, except for Class K and Class Z. FIIOC received an asset-based fee of Class K's and Class Z's average net assets. For the portion of the reporting period prior to March 1, 2024, the fees were equivalent to the following annualized rates:

10. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, a shareholder of record owned more than 25% of the total outstanding shares as follows:
Fund | Affiliated % |
Fidelity Stock Selector All Cap Fund | 58% |
11. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
12. Subsequent Event.
Subject to Board approval in November 2024, the Fund will be renamed to Fidelity Stock Selector Fund effective January 1, 2025.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Capital Trust and the Shareholders of Fidelity Stock Selector All Cap Fund:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Stock Selector All Cap Fund (the "Fund"), a fund of Fidelity Capital Trust, including the schedule of investments, as of September 30, 2024, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of September 30, 2024, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2024, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts and Management Fees
Fidelity Stock Selector All Cap Fund
Each year, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (together, the Board), considers the renewal of the fund's management contract with Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) and certain affiliates and the sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund. FMR and the sub-advisers are referred to herein as the Investment Advisers. The Board, assisted by the advice of fund counsel and Independent Trustees' counsel, requests and considers a broad range of information relevant to the renewal of the Advisory Contracts throughout the year.
The Board meets regularly and, at each of its meetings, covers an extensive agenda of topics and materials and considers factors that are relevant to its annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts, including the services and support provided to the fund and its shareholders. The Board, acting directly and through its Committees (each of which is composed of and chaired by Independent Trustees), requests and receives information concerning the annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts. The Board also meets as needed to review matters specifically related to the Board's annual consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Contracts. Members of the Board may also meet with trustees of other Fidelity funds through joint ad hoc committees to discuss certain matters relevant to all of the Fidelity funds.
At its May 2024 meeting, the Board unanimously determined to renew the fund's Advisory Contracts. In reaching its determination, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (i) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the fund and its shareholders (including the investment performance of the fund); (ii) the competitiveness relative to peer funds of the fund's management fee and the total expense ratio of a representative class (the retail class, which was selected because it was the largest class without 12b-1 fees); (iii) the total costs of the services provided by and the profits realized by FMR and its affiliates (Fidelity) from its relationships with the fund; and (iv) the extent to which, if any, economies of scale exist and are realized as the fund grows, and whether any economies of scale are appropriately shared with fund shareholders. The Board also considered the broad range of investment choices available to shareholders from FMR's competitors and that the fund's shareholders have chosen to invest in the fund, which is part of the Fidelity family of funds. The Board's decision to renew the Advisory Contracts was not based on any single factor.
The Board reached a determination, with the assistance of fund counsel and Independent Trustees' counsel and through the exercise of its business judgment, that the renewal of the Advisory Contracts was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders and that the compensation payable under the Advisory Contracts was fair and reasonable in light of all of the surrounding circumstances.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided. The Board considered staffing as it relates to the fund, including the backgrounds and experience of investment personnel of the Investment Advisers, and also considered the Investment Advisers' implementation of the fund's investment program. The Independent Trustees also had discussions with senior management of Fidelity's investment operations and investment groups. The Board considered the structure of the investment personnel compensation program and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the fund. Additionally, the Board considered the portfolio managers' investments, if any, in the funds that they manage.
Resources Dedicated to Investment Management and Support Services. The Board and the Fund Oversight and Research Committees reviewed the general qualifications and capabilities of Fidelity's investment staff, including its size, education, experience, and resources, as well as Fidelity's approach to recruiting, training, managing, and compensating investment personnel. The Board noted the resources devoted to expansion of Fidelity's global investment organization, and that Fidelity's analysts have extensive resources, tools, and capabilities that allow them to conduct sophisticated quantitative and fundamental analysis, as well as credit analysis of issuers, counterparties, and guarantors. Further, the Board considered that Fidelity's investment professionals have sufficient access to global information and data so as to provide competitive investment results over time, and that those professionals also have access to sophisticated tools that permit them to assess portfolio construction and risk and performance attribution characteristics continuously, as well as to transmit new information and research conclusions rapidly around the world. Additionally, in its deliberations, the Board considered Fidelity's trading, risk management, compliance, and technology and operations capabilities and resources, which are integral parts of the investment management process.
Shareholder and Administrative Services. The Board considered (i) the nature, extent, quality, and cost of advisory, administrative, shareholder, transfer agency, and pricing and bookkeeping services performed by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates under the Advisory Contracts; (ii) the nature and extent of Fidelity's supervision of third party service providers, principally custodians, subcustodians, and pricing vendors; and (iii) the resources devoted by Fidelity to, and the record of compliance with, the fund's compliance policies and procedures. The Board also reviewed the allocation of fund brokerage, including allocations to brokers affiliated with the Investment Advisers, the use of brokerage commissions to pay fund expenses, and the use of "soft" commission dollars to pay for research services. The Board also considered the fund's securities lending activities and any payments made to Fidelity relating to securities lending under a separate agreement.
The Board noted that the growth of fund assets over time across the complex allows Fidelity to reinvest in the development of services designed to enhance the value and convenience of the Fidelity funds as investment vehicles. These services include 24-hour access to account information and market information over the Internet and through telephone representatives, investor education materials, and asset allocation tools. The Board also considered that it reviews customer service metrics such as telephone response times, continuity of services on the website and metrics addressing services at Fidelity Investor Centers.
Investment in a Large Fund Family. The Board considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund that is part of a large family of funds offering a variety of investment disciplines and providing a large variety of fund investor services. The Board noted that Fidelity had taken, or had made recommendations that resulted in the Fidelity funds taking, a number of actions over the previous year that benefited particular funds and/or the Fidelity funds in general.
Investment Performance. The Board took into account discussions that occur with representatives of the Investment Advisers, and reports that it receives, at Board meetings throughout the year, relating to fund investment performance. In this regard the Board noted that as part of regularly scheduled fund reviews and other reports to the Board on fund performance, the Board considered annualized return information for the fund for different time periods, measured against an appropriate securities market index (benchmark index) and an appropriate peer group of funds with similar objectives (peer group). The Board also considered information about performance attribution. In its ongoing evaluation of fund investment performance, the Board gives particular attention to information indicating changes in performance of the funds over different time periods and discussed with the Investment Advisers the reasons for any overperformance or underperformance.
In addition to reviewing absolute and relative fund performance, the Independent Trustees periodically consider the appropriateness of fund performance metrics in evaluating the results achieved. The Independent Trustees generally give greater weight to fund performance over longer time periods than over shorter time periods. Depending on the circumstances, the Independent Trustees may be satisfied with a fund's performance notwithstanding that it lags its benchmark index or peer group for certain periods.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the fund under the Advisory Contracts should continue to benefit the shareholders of the fund.
Competitiveness of Management Fee and Total Expense Ratio. The Board was provided with information regarding industry trends in management fees and expenses. The Board considered that, effective March 1, 2024, an amended Advisory Contract with FMR went into effect with class-level management fees based on tiered schedules and subject to a maximum class-level rate (the management fee). The Board also considered that in exchange for the variable management fee, each class of the fund receives investment advisory, management, administrative, transfer agent, and pricing and bookkeeping services. In its review of the management fee and total expense ratio of the retail class, the Board considered a pro forma management fee rate for the retail class as if it had been in effect for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2023, as well as other third-party fund expenses, as applicable, such as custodial, legal, and audit fees and any fund-paid 12b-1 fees. The Board also considered information about the impact of the fund's performance adjustment.
Comparisons of Management Fees and Total Expense Ratios. Among other things, the Board reviewed data for selected groups of competitive funds and classes (referred to as "mapped groups") that were compiled by Fidelity based on combining similar investment objective categories (as classified by Morningstar) that have comparable investment mandates. The data reviewed by the Board included (i) gross management fee comparisons (before taking into account expense reimbursements or caps and without taking into account the fund's performance adjustment) relative to the total universe of funds within the mapped group; (ii) gross management fee comparisons relative to a subset of non-Fidelity funds in the mapped group that are similar in size and management fee structure to the fund (referred to as the "asset size peer group"); (iii) total expense comparisons of the retail class of the fund relative to funds and classes in the mapped group that have a similar sales load structure to the retail class of the fund (referred to as the "similar sales load structure group"); and (iv) total expense comparisons of the retail class of the fund relative to funds and classes in the similar sales load structure group that are similar in size and management fee structure to the fund (referred to as the "total expense asset size peer group"). The total expense asset size peer group comparison excludes performance adjustments and fund-paid 12b-1 fees to eliminate variability in fee structures.
The information provided to the Board indicated that the fund's management fee rate ranked below the competitive median of the mapped group for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2023 and above the competitive median of the asset size peer group for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2023. Further, the information provided to the Board indicated that the total expense ratio of the retail class of the fund ranked below the competitive median of the similar sales load structure group for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2023 and below the competitive median of the total expense asset size peer group for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2023. The Board noted that the fund has a management fee structure that covers expenses for services beyond portfolio management and further noted that Fidelity believes that total expense ratio comparisons are more useful in this context.
The Board noted that a different variable management fee rate is applicable to each class of the fund. The Board considered that the difference in management fee rates between classes is the result of separate arrangements for class-level services and/or waivers of certain expenses and not the result of any difference in advisory or custodial fees or other expenses related to the management of the fund's assets, which do not vary by class.
The Board also considered that the fund's management fee is subject to upward or downward adjustment depending upon whether, and to what extent, the fund's investment performance for the performance period (a rolling 36-month period) exceeds, or is exceeded by, a securities index, thus leading to a performance adjustment for the same period. The Board noted that the performance adjustment provides FMR with a strong economic incentive to seek to achieve superior long-term performance for the fund's shareholders and helps to more closely align the interests of FMR and the shareholders of the fund.
In connection with its consideration of the fund's performance adjustment, the Board noted that the performance of the retail class is used for purposes of determining the performance adjustment. The Board noted that to the extent the performance adjustment was based on the performance of a share class with higher total annual operating expenses, the fund would be subject to a smaller positive and larger negative performance adjustment. The Board considered the appropriateness of the use of the retail class as the basis for the performance adjustment. The Board noted that the retail class is typically the largest class (reflecting the actual investment experience for the plurality of shareholders), employs a standard expense structure, and does not include fund-paid 12b-1 fees, which Fidelity believes makes it a more appropriate measurement of Fidelity's investment skill.
Fees Charged to Other Fidelity Clients. The Board also considered Fidelity fee structures and other information with respect to clients of Fidelity, such as other funds advised or subadvised by Fidelity, pension plan clients, and other institutional clients with similar mandates. The Board noted that a joint ad hoc committee created by it and the boards of other Fidelity funds periodically reviews and compares Fidelity's institutional investment advisory business with its business of providing services to the Fidelity funds and also noted the most recent findings of the committee. The Board noted that the committee's review included a consideration of the differences in services provided, fees charged, and costs incurred, as well as competition in the markets serving the different categories of clients.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the fund's management fee, including the use of the retail class as the basis for the performance adjustment, is fair and reasonable in light of the services that the fund receives and the other factors considered. Further, based on its review of total expense ratios and fees charged to other Fidelity clients, the Board concluded that the total expense ratio of each class of the fund was reasonable in light of the services that the fund and its shareholders receive and the other factors considered.
Costs of the Services and Profitability. The Board considered the revenues earned and the expenses incurred by Fidelity in conducting the business of developing, marketing, distributing, managing, administering and servicing the fund and servicing the fund's shareholders. The Board also considered the level of Fidelity's profits in respect of all the Fidelity funds.
On an annual basis, Fidelity presents to the Board information about the profitability of its relationships with the fund. Fidelity calculates profitability information for each fund, as well as aggregate profitability information for groups of Fidelity funds and all Fidelity funds, using a series of detailed revenue and cost allocation methodologies which originate with the books and records of Fidelity on which Fidelity's audited financial statements are based. The Audit Committee of the Board reviews any significant changes from the prior year's methodologies and the full Board approves such changes.
A public accounting firm has been engaged annually by the Board as part of the Board's assessment of Fidelity's profitability analysis. The engagement includes the review and assessment of the methodologies used by Fidelity in determining the revenues and expenses attributable to Fidelity's fund business, and completion of agreed-upon procedures in respect of the mathematical accuracy of certain fund profitability information and its conformity to established allocation methodologies. After considering the reports issued under the engagement and information provided by Fidelity, the Board concluded that while other allocation methods may also be reasonable, Fidelity's profitability methodologies are reasonable in all material respects.
The Board also reviewed Fidelity's non-fund businesses and potential indirect benefits such businesses may have received as a result of their association with Fidelity's fund business (i.e., fall-out benefits) as well as cases where Fidelity's affiliates may benefit from the funds' business. The Board considered areas where potential indirect benefits to the Fidelity funds from their relationships with Fidelity may exist. The Board's consideration of these matters was informed by the findings of a joint ad hoc committee created by it and the boards of other Fidelity funds to evaluate potential fall-out benefits.
The Board considered the costs of the services provided by and the profits realized by Fidelity in connection with the operation of the fund and was satisfied that the profitability was not excessive.
Economies of Scale. The Board considered whether there have been economies of scale in respect of the management of the Fidelity funds, whether the Fidelity funds (including the fund) have appropriately benefited from any such economies of scale, and whether there is potential for realization of any further economies of scale. The Board considered the extent to which the fund will benefit from economies of scale as assets grow through increased services to the fund, through waivers or reimbursements, or through fee or expense ratio reductions. The Board also noted that a committee created by it and the boards of other Fidelity funds periodically analyzes whether Fidelity attains economies of scale in respect of the management and servicing of the Fidelity funds, whether the Fidelity funds have appropriately benefited from such economies of scale, and whether there is potential for realization of any further economies of scale.
The Board recognized that the fund's management contract incorporates a variable management fee structure, which provides breakpoints as a way to share, in part, any potential economies of scale that may exist at the asset class level and through a discount that considers both fund size and total assets of the four applicable asset classes. The Board considered that the variable management fee is designed to deliver the benefits of economies of scale to fund shareholders even if assets of any particular fund are unchanged or have declined, because some portion of Fidelity's costs are attributable to services provided to all funds subject to the variable management fee, and all such funds benefit if those costs can be allocated among more assets. The Board concluded that, given the variable management fee structure, fund shareholders will benefit from lower management fees due to the application of the breakpoints and discount factor, regardless of whether Fidelity achieves any such economies of scale.
The Board concluded, taking into account the analysis of the committee, that economies of scale, if any, are being appropriately shared between fund shareholders and Fidelity.
Additional Information Requested by the Board. In order to develop fully the factual basis for consideration of the Fidelity funds' advisory contracts, the Board requested and received additional information on certain topics, including but not limited to: (i) fund flow and performance trends, in particular the underperformance of certain funds and strategies, and Fidelity's long-term strategies for certain funds; (ii) the operation of performance fees and the rationale for implementing performance fees on certain categories of funds but not others; (iii) Fidelity's pricing philosophy compared to competitors; (iv) fund profitability methodology and data; (v) evaluation of competitive fund data and peer group classifications and fee and expense comparisons; (vi) the management fee and expense structures for different funds and classes and information about the differences between various fee and expense structures; (vii) the variable management fee implemented for certain funds effective March 1, 2024; and (viii) information regarding other accounts managed by Fidelity and the funds' sub-advisory arrangements.
Conclusion. Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the advisory and sub-advisory fee arrangements are fair and reasonable in light of all of the surrounding circumstances and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed through May 31, 2025.

Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has designated the Fund's investment adviser as the valuation designee responsible for the fair valuation function and performing fair value determinations as needed. The investment adviser has established a Fair Value Committee (the Committee) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Committee. In accordance with these fair valuation policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing services or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with the policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. The frequency that the fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee manages the Fund's fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Fund's investment adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters.
The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
Level 3 - unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing services or from brokers who make markets in such securities. Corporate bonds and U.S. government and government agency obligations are valued by pricing services who utilize matrix pricing which considers prepayment speed assumptions, attributes of the collateral, yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing services. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of June 30, 2024 is included at the end of the Fund's Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
Foreign Currency. Certain Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and include proceeds received from litigation. Commissions paid to certain brokers with whom the investment adviser, or its affiliates, places trades on behalf of a fund include an amount in addition to trade execution, which may be rebated back to a fund. Any such rebates are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any withholding tax reclaims income is included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in dividends. Any receivables for withholding tax reclaims are included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities in dividends receivable.
Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expenses included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the expenses of that fund and do not include any expenses associated with any underlying mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. Although not included in a fund's expenses, a fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of these expenses through the net asset value of each underlying mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of June 30, 2024, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the consolidated financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
Capital accounts within the consolidated financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to futures contracts, foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), partnerships and losses deferred due to wash sales.
As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
Gross unrealized appreciation | $7,918,340,669 |
Gross unrealized depreciation | (560,223,779) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $7,358,116,890 |
Tax Cost | $11,950,554,759 |
The tax-based components of distributable earnings as of period end were as follows:
Undistributed ordinary income | $63,902,903 |
Undistributed long-term capital gain | $868,850,052 |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities and other investments | $7,358,369,087 |
The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:
| June 30, 2024 | June 30, 2023 |
Ordinary Income | $223,390,008 | $ 222,295,629 |
Long-term Capital Gains | 837,591,089 | 223,292,836 |
Total | $1,060,981,097 | $ 445,588,465 |
Restricted Securities (including Private Placements). Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities held at period end is included at the end of the Consolidated Schedule of Investments, if applicable.
Consolidated Subsidiary. The Funds included in the table below hold certain investments through a wholly-owned subsidiary ("Subsidiary"), which may be subject to federal and state taxes upon disposition.
As of period end, investments in Subsidiaries were as follows:
| Amount ($) | % of Net Assets |
Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund | 1,375,014 | .01 |
The financial statements have been consolidated to include the Subsidiary accounts where applicable. Accordingly, all inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
At period end, any estimated tax liability for these investments is presented as "Deferred taxes" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and included in "Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities" in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The tax liability incurred may differ materially depending on conditions when these investments are disposed. Any cash held by a Subsidiary is restricted as to its use and is presented as "Restricted cash" in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable.
4. Derivative Instruments.
Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Fund's investment objectives allow for various types of derivative instruments, including futures contracts. Derivatives are investments whose value is primarily derived from underlying assets, indices or reference rates and may be transacted on an exchange or over-the-counter (OTC). Derivatives may involve a future commitment to buy or sell a specified asset based on specified terms, to exchange future cash flows at periodic intervals based on a notional principal amount, or for one party to make one or more payments upon the occurrence of specified events in exchange for periodic payments from the other party.
Derivatives were used to increase returns and to manage exposure to certain risks as defined below. The success of any strategy involving derivatives depends on analysis of numerous economic factors, and if the strategies for investment do not work as intended, the objectives may not be achieved.
Derivatives were used to increase or decrease exposure to the following risk(s):
| |
Equity Risk | Equity risk relates to the fluctuations in the value of financial instruments as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign exchange risk), whether caused by factors specific to an individual investment, its issuer, or all factors affecting all instruments traded in a market or market segment. |
Funds are also exposed to additional risks from investing in derivatives, such as liquidity risk and counterparty credit risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that a fund will be unable to close out the derivative in the open market in a timely manner. Counterparty credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will not be able to fulfill its obligation to a fund. Counterparty credit risk related to exchange-traded contracts may be mitigated by the protection provided by the exchange on which they trade.
Investing in derivatives may involve greater risks than investing in the underlying assets directly and, to varying degrees, may involve risk of loss in excess of any initial investment and collateral received and amounts recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, there may be the risk that the change in value of the derivative contract does not correspond to the change in value of the underlying instrument.
Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a specified underlying instrument for a fixed price at a specified future date. Futures contracts were used to manage exposure to the stock market.
Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) with a clearing broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the face value of the contract. Futures contracts are marked-to-market daily and subsequent daily payments are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contracts and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or (depreciation). This receivable and/or payable, if any, is included in daily variation margin on futures contracts in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gain or (loss) is recorded upon the expiration or closing of a futures contract. The net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts during the period is presented in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Any open futures contracts at period end are presented in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments under the caption "Futures Contracts". The notional amount at value reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument or index at period end, and is representative of volume of activity during the period unless an average notional amount is presented. Any securities deposited to meet initial margin requirements are identified in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. Any cash deposited to meet initial margin requirements is presented as segregated cash with brokers for derivative instruments in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, U.S. government securities and in-kind transactions, as applicable, are noted in the table below.
| Purchases ($) | Sales ($) |
Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund | 7,525,873,105 | 8,191,948,738 |
6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee and Expense Contract. Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (the investment adviser) provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's expense contract, the investment adviser also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Directors, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.
Brokerage Commissions. A portion of portfolio transactions were placed with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. Brokerage commissions are included in net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were as follows:
| Amount ($) |
Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund | 113,796 |
Interfund Trades. Funds may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Any interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note. Interfund trades during the period are noted in the table below.
| Purchases ($) | Sales ($) | Realized Gain (Loss)($) |
Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund | 413,938,935 | 577,498,438 | 49,483,619 |
Other. During the period, the investment adviser reimbursed the Fund for certain losses as follows:
| Amount ($) |
Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund | 16,676 |
| |
Sub-Advisory Arrangements. Effective March 1, 2024, the Fund's sub-advisory agreements with FMR Investment Management (UK) Limited, Fidelity Management & Research (Hong Kong) Limited, and Fidelity Management & Research (Japan) Limited will be amended to provide that the investment adviser will pay each sub-adviser monthly fees equal to 110% of the sub-adviser's costs for providing sub-advisory services.
7. Security Lending.
Funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Lending agents are used, including National Financial Services (NFS), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement, NFS will receive a fee, which is capped at 9.9% of a fund's daily lending revenue, for its services as lending agent. A fund may lend securities to certain qualified borrowers, including NFS. On the settlement date of the loan, a fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of a fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to a fund on the next business day. A fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. A fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. Any loaned securities are identified as such in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments, and the value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end, as applicable, are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Consolidated Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Affiliated security lending activity, if any, was as follows:
| Total Security Lending Fees Paid to NFS ($) | Security Lending Income From Securities Loaned to NFS ($) | Value of Securities Loaned to NFS at Period End ($) |
Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund | 35,282 | 8,208 | - |
8. Other.
A fund's organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the fund. In the normal course of business, a fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. A fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against a fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund.
9. Risk and Uncertainties.
Many factors affect a fund's performance. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as pandemics, epidemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases, war, terrorism, and environmental disasters, may significantly affect a fund's investment performance. The effects of these developments to a fund will be impacted by the types of securities in which a fund invests, the financial condition, industry, economic sector, and geographic location of an issuer, and a fund's level of investment in the securities of that issuer. Significant concentrations in security types, issuers, industries, sectors, and geographic locations may magnify the factors that affect a fund's performance.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC and the Shareholders of Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund:
Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund (the "Fund"), a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC, including the consolidated schedule of investments, as of June 30, 2024, the related consolidated statement of operations for the year then ended, the consolidated statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the consolidated financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended and for the period from September 18, 2020 (commencement of operations) through June 30, 2021, and the related notes. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of June 30, 2024, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended and for the period from September 18, 2020 (commencement of operations) through June 30, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2024, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(Unaudited)
Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts
Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund
At its January 2024 meeting, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (together, the Board), approved an amended and restated management contract with Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) (the Management Contract), and amended and restated sub-advisory agreements (the Sub-Advisory Contracts, and together with the Management Contract, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund, including the fund's sub-advisory agreements with FMR Investment Management (UK) Limited (FMR UK), Fidelity Management & Research (Hong Kong) Limited (FMR H.K.), and Fidelity Management & Research (Japan) Limited (FMR Japan). The Advisory Contracts will be effective March 1, 2024. The Board will consider the annual renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts in May 2024, following its review of additional materials provided by FMR.
Management Contract. The Board approved the Management Contract, which eliminates the fee that FMR previously received from each investing fund's investment adviser. The Board noted the fund will continue to pay no management fee to FMR for services provided under the Management Contract.
Sub-Advisory Contracts. In connection with the Management Contract changes, the Board considered the Sub-Advisory Contracts, which simplified the calculation of the fees paid by FMR to the sub-advisers under the agreements. The Board noted that the agreements with FMR UK, FMR H.K., and FMR Japan were amended to provide that FMR will compensate each sub-adviser at a fee rate equal to 110% of the sub-adviser's costs incurred in providing services under the agreement. The Board considered that, under the Sub-Advisory Contracts, FMR, and not the fund, will continue to pay the sub-advisory fees to each applicable sub-adviser.
The Board considered that the approval of the fund's Advisory Contracts will not result in any changes in the investment process or strategies employed in the management of the fund's assets or the day-to-day management of the fund or the persons primarily responsible for such management. Further, the Board considered that the Management Contract would not change the obligations and services of FMR and its affiliates on behalf of the fund, and, in particular, there would be no change in the nature and level of advisory, management, administration, transfer agent, and pricing and bookkeeping services provided to the fund by FMR, its affiliates, and each applicable sub-adviser.
In connection with its consideration of future renewals of the fund's Advisory Contracts, the Board will consider: (i) the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the funds, including shareholder and administrative services and investment performance; (ii) the competitiveness of the management fee and total expenses for the fund; (iii) the costs of the services and profitability, including the revenues earned and the expenses incurred in conducting the business of developing, marketing, distributing, managing, administering, and servicing the fund and its shareholders, to the extent applicable; and (iv) whether there have been economies of scale in respect of the Fidelity funds, whether the Fidelity funds (including the fund) have appropriately benefited from any such economies of scale, and whether there is the potential for realization of any further economies.
Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board concluded that the fund's management fee structure is fair and reasonable, and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be approved.
Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts and Management Fees
Fidelity U.S. Equity Central Fund
Each year, the Board of Directors, including the Independent Directors (together, the Board), considers the renewal of the fund's management contract with Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) and the sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund. FMR and the sub-advisers are referred to herein as the Investment Advisers. The Board, assisted by the advice of fund counsel and Independent Directors' counsel, requests and considers a broad range of information relevant to the renewal of the Advisory Contracts throughout the year.
The Board meets regularly and, at each of its meetings, covers an extensive agenda of topics and materials and considers factors that are relevant to its annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts, including the services and support provided to the fund and its shareholders. The Board, acting directly and through its Committees (each of which is composed of and chaired by Independent Directors), requests and receives information concerning the annual consideration of the renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts. The Board also meets as needed to review matters specifically related to the Board's annual consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Contracts. Members of the Board may also meet with trustees of other Fidelity funds through joint ad hoc committees to discuss certain matters relevant to all of the Fidelity funds.
At its May 2024 meeting, the Board unanimously determined to renew the fund's Advisory Contracts. In reaching its determination, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant and reached a determination, with the assistance of fund counsel and Independent Directors' counsel and through the exercise of its business judgment, that the renewal of the Advisory Contracts was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders and the fact that no fee is payable under the management contract was fair and reasonable in light of all of the surrounding circumstances.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided. The Board considered staffing as it relates to the fund, including the backgrounds and experience of investment personnel of the Investment Advisers, and also considered the Investment Advisers' implementation of the fund's investment program. The Independent Directors also had discussions with senior management of Fidelity's investment operations and investment groups. The Board considered the structure of the investment personnel compensation program and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the fund.
Resources Dedicated to Investment Management and Support Services. The Board and the Fund Oversight and Research Committees reviewed the general qualifications and capabilities of Fidelity's investment staff, including its size, education, experience, and resources, as well as Fidelity's approach to recruiting, training, managing, and compensating investment personnel. The Board noted the resources devoted to expansion of Fidelity's global investment organization, and that Fidelity's analysts have extensive resources, tools, and capabilities that allow them to conduct sophisticated quantitative and fundamental analysis, as well as credit analysis of issuers, counterparties, and guarantors. Further, the Board considered that Fidelity's investment professionals have sufficient access to global information and data so as to provide competitive investment results over time, and that those professionals also have access to sophisticated tools that permit them to assess portfolio construction and risk and performance attribution characteristics continuously, as well as to transmit new information and research conclusions rapidly around the world. Additionally, in its deliberations, the Board considered Fidelity's trading, risk management, compliance, and technology and operations capabilities and resources, which are integral parts of the investment management process.
Administrative Services. The Board considered (i) the nature, extent, quality, and cost of advisory and administrative services performed by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates under the Advisory Contracts and under separate agreements covering transfer agency and pricing and bookkeeping services for the fund; (ii) the nature and extent of Fidelity's supervision of third party service providers, principally custodians, subcustodians, and pricing vendors; and (iii) the resources devoted by Fidelity to, and the record of compliance with, the fund's compliance policies and procedures. The Board also reviewed the allocation of fund brokerage, including allocations to brokers affiliated with the Investment Advisers, and the use of "soft" commission dollars to pay for research services. The Board also considered the fund's securities lending activities and any payments made to Fidelity relating to securities lending under a separate agreement.
Investment Performance. The Board reviewed the fund's absolute investment performance, as well as the fund's relative investment performance, and noted that the fund is not publicly offered as a stand-alone investment product. In this regard, the Board noted that the fund is designed to offer a liquid investment option for other investment companies managed by Fidelity and ultimately to enhance the performance of those investment companies.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the fund under the Advisory Contracts should continue to benefit the shareholders of the fund.
Competitiveness of Management Fee and Total Expense Ratio. The Board considered that while the fund does not pay a management fee, FMR receives fees for providing services to funds that invest in the fund. The Board also noted that FMR bears all expenses of the fund with certain limited exceptions (i.e., custody fees, interest, taxes, fees and expenses of the Independent Directors, proxy and shareholder meeting expenses, and extraordinary expenses). The Board further noted that the fund pays its non-operating expenses, including brokerage commissions and fees and expenses associated with the fund's securities lending program, if applicable. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the management fee received for providing services to the fund and the fund's total expense ratio were reasonable in light of the services that the fund and its shareholders receive and the other factors considered.
Costs of the Services and Profitability. The Board considered the level of Fidelity's profits in respect of all the Fidelity funds, as well as the profitability of the funds that invest in the fund.
A public accounting firm has been engaged annually by the Board as part of the Board's assessment of Fidelity's profitability analysis. The engagement includes the review and assessment of the methodologies used by Fidelity in determining the revenues and expenses attributable to Fidelity's fund business, and completion of agreed-upon procedures in respect of the mathematical accuracy of certain fund profitability information and its conformity to established allocation methodologies. After considering the reports issued under the engagement and information provided by Fidelity, the Board concluded that while other allocation methods may also be reasonable, Fidelity's profitability methodologies are reasonable in all material respects.
The Board also reviewed Fidelity's non-fund businesses and potential indirect benefits such businesses may have received as a result of their association with Fidelity's fund business (i.e., fall-out benefits) as well as cases where Fidelity's affiliates may benefit from the funds' business. The Board considered areas where potential indirect benefits to the Fidelity funds from their relationships with Fidelity may exist. The Board's consideration of these matters was informed by the findings of a joint ad hoc committee created by it and the boards of other Fidelity funds to evaluate potential fall-out benefits.
The Board concluded that the costs of the services provided by and the profits realized by Fidelity in connection with the operation of the fund were not relevant to the renewal of the Advisory Contracts because the fund pays no advisory fees and FMR bears all expenses of the fund with certain exceptions.
Economies of Scale. The Board concluded that because the fund pays no advisory fees and FMR bears all expenses of the fund with certain exceptions, the realization of economies of scale was not a material factor in the Board's decision to renew the fund's Advisory Contract.
Additional Information Requested by the Board. In order to develop fully the factual basis for consideration of the Fidelity funds' advisory contracts, the Board requested and received additional information on certain topics, including but not limited to: (i) fund flow and performance trends, in particular the underperformance of certain funds and strategies, and Fidelity's long-term strategies for certain funds; (ii) the operation of performance fees and the rationale for implementing performance fees on certain categories of funds but not others; (iii) Fidelity's pricing philosophy compared to competitors; (iv) fund profitability methodology and data; (v) evaluation of competitive fund data and peer group classifications and fee and expense comparisons; (vi) the management fee and expense structures for different funds and classes and information about the differences between various fee and expense structures; (vii) the variable management fee implemented for certain funds effective March 1, 2024; and (viii) information regarding other accounts managed by Fidelity and the funds' sub-advisory arrangements.
Conclusion. Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board, including the Independent Directors, concluded that the advisory and sub-advisory fee arrangements are fair and reasonable in light of all of the surrounding circumstances and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed through May 31, 2025.
