Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended August 31, 2003 (Unaudited)
1. Significant Accounting Policies.
Fidelity Select Portfolios (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 trust is comprised of equity funds (the fund or the funds), which invest primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries, and a money market fund, which invests in high quality money market instruments. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The Gold Portfolio and Natural Resources Portfolio may also invest in certain precious metals. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the funds:
Security Valuation. Net asset value per share (NAV calculation) is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price or official closing price (closing bid price or last evaluated quote if no sale has occurred) on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. Debt securities for which quotations are readily available are valued at their most recent bid prices (sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in the principal market in which such securities are normally traded, as determined by recognized dealers in such securities, or securities are valued on the basis of information provided by a pricing service. Pricing services use valuation matrices that incorporate both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. If an event that is expected to materially affect the value of a security occurs after the close of an exchange or market on which that security trades, but prior to the NAV calculation, then that security will be fair valued taking the event into account. Securities (including restricted securities) for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Price movements in futures contracts and ADRs, market and trading trends, the bid/ask quotes of brokers and off-exchange institutional trading may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security's fair value. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued on the basis of amortized cost. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.
As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and certain conditions therein, securities owned by the money market fund are valued initially at cost and thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium.
Foreign Currency. Certain funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. 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 rate 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. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. 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 funds are 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. Financial Services Portfolio and Paper and Forest Products Portfolio estimate the components of distributions received from Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). Distributions received in excess of income are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or realized gain. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the funds in the trust.
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) non-interested Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of each applicable fund or are invested in a cross-section of other Fidelity funds, and are marked-to-market. Deferred amounts remain in the fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year the funds intend to qualify as regulated investment companies by distributing all of their taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required in the accompanying financial statements. Foreign taxes are provided for based on each fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. For the Money Market Portfolio, dividends are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income and distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net investment income and realized gains are recorded on the ex-dividend date for all other funds.

Semiannual Report
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders - continued
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. There were no significant book-to-tax differences during the period for the money market fund. Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent and temporary book and tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary differences will reverse in a subsequent period. These differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), market discount, partnerships, non-taxable dividends, net operating losses, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments including unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end was as follows for each fund:

2. Operating Policies.
Repurchase Agreements. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) has received an Exemptive Order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) which permits the funds and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts. These accounts are then invested in repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or Government obligations. Certain funds may also invest directly with institutions, in repurchase agreements that are collateralized by commercial paper obligations and corporate obligations. The custodian bank receives the collateral, which is marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest).
Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. Each fund may purchase or sell securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, the contract is marked-to-market daily and equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The value of the securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in each applicable fund's Schedule of Investments. Each fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, each fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.
Restricted Securities. Certain 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 is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of each applicable fund's Schedule of Investments.
3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Information regarding purchases and sales of securities is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of each applicable fund's Schedule of Investments. Financial Services Portfolio realized a gain on the sale of an investment not meeting the investment restrictions of the fund.
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the funds with investment management related services for which the funds pay a monthly management fee.
For the equity funds the management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of each fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .28% during the period. The group fee rates differ for equity and fixed-income funds and are based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period the equity funds' total annualized management fee rates were .58% of the funds' average net assets.
For the money market fund the management fee is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a total income-based component. The group fee rate averaged .13% during the period. The total income-based component is calculated according to a graduated schedule providing for different rates based on the fund's gross annualized yield. The rate increases as the fund's gross yield increases.
During the period the income-based portion of the management fee was $324,073 or an annualized rate of .07% of the fund's average net assets. For the period the money market fund's total annualized management fee rate was .20% of average net assets.
Sales Load. Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, is the general distributor of the funds. FDC receives a sales charge of up to 3% for selling shares of each equity fund. Prior to October 12, 1990, FDC received a sales charge of up to 2% and a 1% deferred sales charge. Shares purchased prior to October 12, 1990, are subject to a 1% deferred sales charge upon redemption or exchange to any other Fidelity Fund (other than Select funds). The amounts received and retained by FDC are shown under the caption "Other Information" on each fund's Statement of Operations. Effective September 23, 2003, all of the Fidelity Select Portfolios eliminated their 3% sales charge.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is the funds' transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements.
Semiannual Report
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. FSC maintains each fund's accounting records and administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.

Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the funds, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program.

Information regarding each applicable fund's participation in the program is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of each applicable fund's Schedule of Investments.
5. Committed Line of Credit.
Certain funds participate with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The funds have agreed to pay commitment fees on their pro rata portion of the line of credit. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
6. Security Lending.
Certain funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Each applicable 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 the funds and any additional required collateral is delivered to the funds on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Cash collateral is invested in cash equivalents. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on each applicable fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

During this period Construction and Housing Portfolio received dividends in the amount of $42,780. The lawsuit has been stayed by order of the Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware until February 2, 2004. The fund intends to defend the proceedings vigorously.
