A message to shareholders
Dear fellow shareholder,
Despite improving economic conditions in many developed countries and continued central bank stimulus, global market volatility recently crept up. European markets were shaken by the ongoing debt crisis in Greece, including that country's default on debt payments and subsequent vote to reject the terms of a bailout package from European creditors.
In the bond market, yields rose from recent lows as the U.S. labor market showed some signs of strength. The low levels of returns currently offered by most bond markets mean there is little cushion against falling prices, and, as a result, many fixed-income investors have experienced negative total returns for the first time since 2013. A stronger domestic economy has increased the chances that the U.S. Federal Reserve will raise short-term interest rates.
While the economic picture in many developed countries is improving—and many central banks continue to apply stimulus—we may be in for a period of rising market volatility as investors adjust to the idea of a more normalized monetary policy in the United States. Unpleasant as they are, these pullbacks can ultimately be beneficial to the long-term health of the markets, resetting valuations and investor expectations on a more realistic trajectory.
The near-term challenge, particularly for fixed-income investors, will be maintaining the discipline to stick to a well-constructed long-term financial plan in the face of short-term market dynamics. As always, we recommend that your first course of action be a conversation with your financial advisor. We also believe investors can be well served by owning broadly diversified asset allocation funds or by adding alternative strategies such as absolute return funds to a diversified portfolio.
On behalf of everyone at John Hancock Investments, I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome new shareholders and thank existing shareholders for the continued trust you've placed in us.
Sincerely,
Andrew G. Arnott

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The fund seeks a high level of current income consistent with prudent investment risk.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS AS OF 5/31/15 (%)
The Barclays Government/Credit Bond Index is an unmanaged index of U.S. government bonds, U.S. corporate bonds, and Yankee bonds.
It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Index figures do not reflect expenses or sales charges, which would result in lower values.
Figures from Morningstar, Inc. include reinvested distributions and do not take into account sales charges. Actual load-adjusted performance is lower.
The past performance shown here reflects reinvested distributions and the beneficial effect of any expense reductions, and does not guarantee future results. Returns for periods shorter than one year are cumulative, and results for other share classes will vary. Shares will fluctuate in value and, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance cited, and can be found at jhinvestments.com or by calling 800-225-5291. For further information on the fund's objectives, risks, and strategy, see the fund's prospectuses.

PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS OVER THE LAST TWELVE MONTHS
Bonds had mixed results
Slow global growth helped the performance of higher-quality, rate-sensitive asset classes, but high-yield bonds and market segments exposed to falling oil prices lagged.
The fund slightly outperformed its benchmark
Strong security selection and effective yield curve positioning helped fund performance.
Two factors dampened performance
The fund's duration positioning and its allocation to energy issuers within the high-yield space detracted from its 12-month results.
PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION AS OF 5/31/15 (%)
A note about risks
Fixed-income investments are subject to interest-rate and credit risk; their value will normally decline as interest rates rise or if a creditor, grantor, or counterparty is unable or unwilling to make principal, interest, or settlement payments. Investments in higher-yielding, lower-rated securities include a higher risk of default. Sector investing is subject to greater risks than the market as a whole. Because the fund may focus on particular sectors of the economy, its performance may depend on the performance of those sectors, and investments focused in one sector may fluctuate more widely than investments diversified across sectors. Foreign investing, especially in emerging markets, has additional risks, such as currency and market volatility and political and social instability. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities may be sensitive to changes in interest rates, and may be subject to early repayment and the market's perception of issuer creditworthiness. Certain market conditions, including reduced trading volume, heightened volatility, and rising interest rates, may impair liquidity, the ability of the fund to sell securities or close derivative positions at advantageous prices. The use of hedging and derivatives could produce disproportionate gains or losses and may increase costs. Fund distributions generally depend on income from underlying investments and may vary or cease altogether in the future. Please see the fund's prospectuses for additional risks.

John Hancock Asset Management
Can you describe the market environment of the past 12 months?
The U.S. investment-grade bond market delivered a positive return of 2.92% during the past year, as gauged by the fund's benchmark, the Barclays Government/Credit Bond Index. Given that bond yields fell in the period (as prices rose), market segments most sensitive to movements in interest rates—including government bonds and longer-term debt—generated the best performance. The primary reason for the downtrend in yields was the backdrop of low inflation, slow global growth, and the benign U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) policy that characterized the first half of the reporting period.
At the same time, areas of the market with a higher sensitivity to energy prices lagged due to the sharp decline in the price of oil late in 2014. This resulted in pressure on the high-yield market, particularly among energy and energy-related issuers. Emerging-market debt also lagged due to the weakness in the price of oil and other commodities. In addition, the asset class was negatively impacted by concerns about slowing economic growth and volatile currency market performance.
Mortgage-backed securities closed the 12-month period with a gain, thanks to both the broader decline in interest rates and homeowners' slow pace of mortgage refinancings. Corporate bonds also posted a positive return, but the asset class finished behind the overall bond market due to its underperformance in the final month of the fund's fiscal year.
How did the fund's duration and yield curve positioning impact performance?
We positioned the fund in anticipation of a flattening yield curve (outperformance for longer-term bonds relative to intermediate-term debt). We accomplished this by reducing exposure to five- and ten-year bonds in favor of longer-dated securities. This aspect of the fund's positioning made a strong contribution through the end of February, but the positive impact waned once longer-term yields began to rise from March onward. The fund remained geared toward a flatter yield curve at
4
While this yield curve positioning added value, the fund lost some performance by maintaining a duration (interest-rate sensitivity) below that of the benchmark. This positioning reflected our view that U.S. Treasury yields would gradually move higher over the longer term. Since yields in fact fell during the past year, the fund's defensive posture detracted from performance.
How is the fund positioned among the various sectors of the bond market?
The fund remained focused on market segments that offer a yield advantage over U.S. Treasuries, such as corporate bonds, high-yield bonds, asset-backed securities (ABS), and the international
QUALITY COMPOSITION AS OF 5/31/15 (%)

In the investment-grade corporate segment, our security selection had a positive impact on performance. Our overweight allocation to financials, which outperformed the industrials and utilities sectors during the period, helped the fund generate favorable relative returns within its corporate bond allocation. Financials face tighter regulation regarding capital requirements and permissible leverage than companies in other sectors, which we believe has created a more favorable trade-off of risk and return in the group. We continue to find attractive opportunities in the corporate space, and it remained the fund's largest allocation at period end. Positions in certain ABS that outperformed the broader market were also helpful to performance.
The fund's allocation to high-yield was a modest detractor, as the asset class lagged the investment-grade bond market during the period. In addition, the fund holds positions in a handful of energy producers whose bonds fell sharply in the sell-off of late 2014. While these positions weren't large, the extent of the downturn had a negative impact on the fund's 12-month performance.
The fund also holds a small position in the emerging markets debt. Here, we focus on corporate bonds that we believe offer a compelling opportunity relative to the associated risks, and whose underlying businesses are experiencing positive trends. Although this approach has worked well over time, emerging market corporates underperformed the U.S. bond market due to heightened investor caution regarding economic growth in the developing world.
What is your overall view of the bond market, and how was that reflected in the fund's positioning?
We took steps to reduce credit risk in the fund throughout the course of the year. We lowered the fund's weighting in corporate bonds by selling positions where we no longer saw a favorable trade-off of risk and return. We redeployed the majority of the proceeds of these sales into ABS, where we found a large representation of bonds with the combination of attractive yields, high credit ratings, and short maturity structures that satisfy our yield curve outlook. As a result, our decision to increase the weighting in ABS enabled us to boost the fund's overall credit quality without sacrificing a significant amount of yield. We believe that searching for this type of value, rather than
6
trying to reach for yield in lower-rated securities, is the prudent course at this stage of the credit cycle.
The fund is also positioned somewhat defensively with respect to its duration. At the close of the fiscal year, the fund's duration stood at 5.2 years, which compares with 6.2 years for the benchmark. This isn't a significant part of our overall strategy, however, as individual security selection is our primary emphasis. With that said, the fund holds a meaningful position in floating-rate securities, primarily mortgage-backed securities that hold adjustable-rate loans. These investments can benefit if interest rates begin to move higher, and we believe they provide an element of diversification to the fund.
Given the backdrop of low prevailing yields and the likelihood that Fed policy will begin to play a greater role in bond market performance, we believe that individual security selection will become increasingly important in the months and years ahead. In this environment, we believe our active, research-based approach can continue to add value for the fund.

Performance figures assume all distributions have been reinvested. Figures reflect maximum sales charges on Class A shares of 4.0% and the applicable contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) on Class B and Class C shares. The returns for Class A shares have been adjusted to reflect the reduction in the maximum sales charge from 4.5% to 4.0%, effective 2-3-14. The Class B shares' CDSC declines annually between years 1 to 6 according to the following schedule: 5%, 4%, 3%, 3%, 2%, 1%. No sales charge will be assessed after the sixth year. Class C shares sold within one year of purchase are subject to a 1% CDSC. Sales charges are not applicable to Class I, Class R2, Class R4, and Class R6 shares.
The expense ratios of the fund, both net (including any fee waivers and/or expense limitations) and gross (excluding any fee waivers and/or expense limitations), are set forth according to the most recent publicly available prospectuses for the fund and may differ from those disclosed in the Financial highlights tables in this report. Had the fee waivers and expense limitations not been in place, gross expenses would apply. The expense ratios are as follows:
Class A | Class B | Class C | Class I | Class R2 | Class R4* | Class R6 | |
Gross (%) | 0.98 | 1.68 | 1.68 | 0.66 | 1.06 | 0.91 | 0.56 |
Net (%) | 0.93 | 1.63 | 1.63 | 0.61 | 1.01 | 0.76 | 0.49 |
*Expenses have been estimated for the fund's first year of operations.
Please refer to the most recent prospectus and annual or semiannual report for more information on expenses and any expense limitation arrangements for each class.
The returns reflect past results and should not be considered indicative of future performance. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Due to market volatility and other factors, the fund's current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. For current to the most recent month-end performance data, please call 800-225-5291 or visit the fund's website at jhinvestments.com.
The performance table above and the chart on the next page do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. The fund's performance results reflect any applicable fee waivers or expense reductions, without which the expenses would increase and results would have been less favorable.

These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing operating expenses of investing in the fund so you can compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
Understanding fund expenses
As a shareholder of the fund, you incur two types of costs:
• | Transaction costs, which include sales charges (loads) on purchases or redemptions (varies by share class), minimum account fee charge, etc. |
• | Ongoing operating expenses, including management fees, distribution and service fees (if applicable), and other fund expenses. |
We are presenting only your ongoing operating expenses here.
Actual expenses/actual returns
This example is intended to provide information about the fund's actual ongoing operating expenses, and is based on the fund's actual return. It assumes an account value of $1,000.00 on December 1, 2014, with the same investment held until May 31, 2015.
Account value on 12-1-2014 | Ending value on 5-31-2015 | Expenses paid during period ended 5-31-20151 | Annualized expense ratio | |
Class A | $1,000.00 | $1,013.20 | $4.42 | 0.88% |
Class B | 1,000.00 | 1,010.30 | 7.92 | 1.58% |
Class C | 1,000.00 | 1,009.70 | 7.92 | 1.58% |
Class I | 1,000.00 | 1,014.80 | 2.81 | 0.56% |
Class R2 | 1,000.00 | 1,013.10 | 4.62 | 0.92% |
Class R42 | 1,000.00 | 1,001.80 | 1.14 | 0.64% |
Class R6 | 1,000.00 | 1,015.90 | 2.31 | 0.46% |
Together with the value of your account, you may use this information to estimate the operating expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value at May 31, 2015, by $1,000.00, then multiply it by the "expenses paid" for your share class from the table above. For example, for an account value of $8,600.00, the operating expenses should be calculated as follows:

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes
This table allows you to compare the fund's ongoing operating expenses with those of any other fund. It provides an example of the fund's hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each class's actual expense ratio and an assumed 5% annualized return before expenses (which is not the fund's actual return). It assumes an account value of $1,000.00 on December 1, 2014, with the same investment held until May 31, 2015. Look in any other fund shareholder report to find its hypothetical example and you will be able to compare these expenses. Please remember that these hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period.
Account value on 12-1-2014 | Ending value on 5-31-2015 | Expenses paid during period ended 5-31-20151 | Annualized expense ratio | |
Class A | $1,000.00 | $1,020.50 | $4.43 | 0.88% |
Class B | 1,000.00 | 1,017.10 | 7.95 | 1.58% |
Class C | 1,000.00 | 1,017.10 | 7.95 | 1.58% |
Class I | 1,000.00 | 1,022.30 | 2.82 | 0.56% |
Class R2 | 1,000.00 | 1,020.30 | 4.63 | 0.92% |
Class R4 | 1,000.00 | 1,021.70 | 3.23 | 0.64% |
Class R6 | 1,000.00 | 1,022.60 | 2.32 | 0.46% |
Remember, these examples do not include any transaction costs, therefore, these examples will not help you to determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included, your expenses would have been higher. See the prospectuses for details regarding transaction costs.
1 | Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). |
2 | The inception date for Class R4 shares is 3-27-15. Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 65/365 (to reflect the period). |

Note 1 — Organization
John Hancock Bond Fund (the fund) is a series of John Hancock Sovereign Bond Fund (the Trust), an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The investment objective of the fund is to seek a high level of current income consistent with prudent investment risk.
The fund may offer multiple classes of shares. The shares currently offered are detailed in the Statement of assets and liabilities. Class A and Class C shares are offered to all investors. Class B shares are closed to new investors. Class I shares are offered to institutions and certain investors. Class R2 and Class R4 shares are available only to certain retirement plans. Class R6 shares are available only to certain retirement plans, institutions and other investors. Shareholders of each class have exclusive voting rights to matters that affect that class. The distribution and service fees, if any, and transfer agent fees for each class may differ. Class B shares convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase.
Note 2 — Significant accounting policies
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be significant. The fund qualifies as an investment company under Topic 946 of Accounting Standards Codification of US GAAP.
Events or transactions occurring after the end of the fiscal period through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:
Security valuation. Investments are stated at value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time. In order to value the securities, the fund uses the following valuation techniques: Equity securities held by the fund are valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the exchange where the security was acquired or most likely will be sold. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, the securities are valued using the last available bid price. Debt obligations are valued based on the evaluated prices provided by an independent pricing vendor or from broker-dealers. Independent pricing vendors utilize matrix pricing which takes into account factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data, as well as broker supplied prices. Foreign securities are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing vendor. Securities that trade only in the over-the-counter (OTC) market are valued using bid prices. Other portfolio securities and assets, for which reliable market quotations are not readily available, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the fund's Pricing Committee following procedures established by the Board of Trustees. The frequency with which these fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and fair value of securities may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed.
The fund uses a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the pricing assumptions, referred to as inputs, used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. Level 1 includes securities valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 includes securities valued using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk. Prices for securities valued using these inputs are received from independent pricing vendors and brokers and are based on an evaluation of the inputs described. Level 3 includes securities valued using significant unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable, including the fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments. Factors used in determining value may include market or issuer specific events or trends, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy.
The following is a summary of the values by input classification of the fund's investments as of May 31, 2015, by major security category or type:
47
Total market value at 5-31-15 | Level 1 quoted price | Level 2 significant observable inputs | Level 3 significant unobservable inputs | |

Repurchase agreements. The fund may enter into repurchase agreements. When the fund enters into a repurchase agreement, it receives collateral that is held in a segregated account by the fund's custodian, or for tri-party repurchase agreements, collateral is held at a third-party custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the fund. The collateral amount is marked-to-market and monitored on a daily basis to ensure that the collateral held is in an amount not less than the principal amount of the repurchase agreement plus any accrued interest. Collateral received by the fund for repurchase agreements is disclosed in the Fund's investments as part of the caption related to the repurchase agreement.
Repurchase agreements are typically governed by the terms and conditions of the Master Repurchase Agreement and/or Global Master Repurchase Agreement (collectively, MRA). Upon an event of default, the non-defaulting party may close out all transactions traded under the MRA and net amounts owed. Absent an event of default, assets and liabilities resulting from repurchase agreements are not offset in the Statement of assets and liabilities. In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the collateral value may decline or the counterparty may have insufficient assets to pay back claims resulting from close-out of the transactions.
Security transactions and related investment income. Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one basis for daily net asset value calculations. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Interest income is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization/accretion of premiums/discounts on debt securities. Debt obligations may be placed in a non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by stopping current accruals and writing off interest receivable when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-date, except for dividends of foreign securities where the dividend may not be known until after the ex-date. In those cases, dividend income, net of withholding taxes, is recorded when the fund becomes aware of the dividends. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds from litigation.
Stripped securities. Stripped securities are financial instruments structured to separate principal and interest cash flows so that one class receives principal payments from the underlying assets (PO or principal only), while the other class receives the interest cash flows (IO or interest only). Both PO and IO investments represent an interest in the cash flows of an underlying stripped security. If the underlying assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the fund may fail to fully recover its initial investment in an IO security. The market value of these securities can be extremely volatile in response to changes in interest rates or prepayments on the underlying securities. In addition, these securities present additional credit risk such that the fund may not receive all or part of its principal or interest payments because the borrower or issuer has defaulted on its obligation.
Line of credit. The fund may borrow from banks for temporary or emergency purposes, including meeting redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely sale of securities. Pursuant to the fund's custodian agreement, the
48
custodian may loan money to the fund to make properly authorized payments. The fund is obligated to repay the custodian for any overdraft, including any related costs or expenses. The custodian may have a lien, security interest or security entitlement in any fund property that is not otherwise segregated or pledged, to the extent of any overdraft, and to the maximum extent permitted by law.
In addition, the fund and other affiliated funds have entered into an agreement with Citibank N.A. that enables them to participate in a $300 million unsecured committed line of credit. A commitment fee, payable at the end of each calendar quarter, based on the average daily unused portion of the line of credit, is charged to each participating fund on a pro rata basis and is reflected in other expenses on the Statement of operations. Commitment fees for the year ended May 31, 2015 were $1,265. For the year ended May 31, 2015, the fund had no borrowings under the line of credit.
Expenses. Within the John Hancock group of funds complex, expenses that are directly attributable to an individual fund are allocated to such fund. Expenses that are not readily attributable to a specific fund are allocated among all funds in an equitable manner, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the fund's relative net assets. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Class allocations. Income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are determined at the fund level and allocated daily to each class of shares based on the net assets of the class. Class-specific expenses, such as distribution and service fees, if any, transfer agent fees, for all classes, are calculated daily at the class level based on the appropriate net assets of each class and the specific expense rates applicable to each class.
Federal income taxes. The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and will not be subject to federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
Net capital losses of $10,190,574, that are a result of security transactions occurring after October 31, 2014, are treated as occurring on June 1, 2015, the first day of the fund's next taxable year.
As of May 31, 2015, the fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, derecognition or disclosure. The fund's federal tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years.
Distribution of income and gains. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-date. The fund generally declares dividends daily and pays them monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are distributed annually. The tax character of distributions for the years ended May 31, 2015 and 2014 was as follows:
May 31, 2015 | May 31, 2014 | |
Ordinary Income | $94,787,378 | $80,720,514 |
Long-Term Capital Gain | 5,705,057 | 4,151,767 |
Total | $100,492,435 | $84,872,281 |
Distributions paid by the fund with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner, at the same time and in the same amount, except for the effect of class level expenses that may be applied differently to each class. As of May 31, 2015, the fund has no distributable earnings on a tax basis.
Such distributions and distributable earnings, on a tax basis, are determined in conformity with income tax regulations, which may differ from US GAAP. Distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits, if any, are reported in the fund's financial statements as a return of capital.
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. Temporary book-tax differences, if any, will reverse in a subsequent
49
period. Book-tax differences are primarily attributable to foreign currency transactions and amortization and accretion on debt securities.
Note 3 — Derivative instruments
The fund may invest in derivatives in order to meet its investment objective. Derivatives include a variety of different instruments that may be traded in the OTC, on a regulated exchange or through a clearing facility. The risks in using derivatives vary depending upon the structure of the instruments, including the use of leverage, optionality, the liquidity or lack of liquidity of the contract, the creditworthiness of the counterparty or clearing organization and the volatility of the position. Some derivatives involve risks that are potentially greater than the risks associated with investing directly in the referenced securities or other referenced underlying instrument. Specifically, the fund is exposed to the risk that the counterparty to an OTC derivatives contract will be unable or unwilling to make timely settlement payments or otherwise honor its obligations. OTC derivatives transactions typically can only be closed out with the other party to the transaction.
For financial reporting purposes, the fund does not offset OTC derivative assets or liabilities that are subject to master netting arrangements, as defined by the ISDAs, in the Statement of assets and liabilities. In the event of default by the counterparty or a termination of the agreement, the ISDA allows an offset of amounts across the various transactions between the fund and the applicable counterparty.
Certain options are traded or cleared on an exchange or central clearinghouse. Exchange-traded or cleared transactions generally present less counterparty risk to a fund than OTC transactions. The exchange or clearinghouse stands between the fund and the broker to the contract and therefore, credit risk is generally limited to the failure of the exchange or clearinghouse and the clearing member.
Options. There are two types of options, put options and call options. Options are traded either OTC or on an exchange. A call option gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy (and the seller the obligation to sell) the underlying instrument at the exercise price. A put option gives the purchaser of the option the right to sell (and the writer the obligation to buy) the underlying instrument at the exercise price. Writing puts and buying calls may increase the fund's exposure to changes in the value of the underlying instrument. Buying puts and writing calls may decrease the fund's exposure to such changes. Risks related to the use of options include the loss of premiums, possible illiquidity of the options markets, trading restrictions imposed by an exchange and movements in underlying security values, and for written options, potential losses in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statement of assets and liabilities. In addition, OTC options are subject to the risks of all OTC derivatives contracts.
When the fund purchases an option, the premium paid by the fund is included in the fund's investments and subsequently "marked-to-market" to reflect current market value. If the purchased option expires, the fund realizes a loss equal to the cost of the option. If the fund exercises a call option, the cost of the securities acquired by exercising the call is increased by the premium paid to buy the call. If the fund exercises a put option, it realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale are decreased by the premium paid. If the fund enters into a closing sale transaction, the fund realizes a gain or loss, depending on whether proceeds from the closing sale are greater or less than the original cost.
During the year ended May 31, 2015, the fund used purchased options to manage the duration of the fund and held purchased options with market values ranging from up to $125,000, as measured at each quarter end. There were no open purchased option contracts as of May 31, 2015.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees of John Hancock Sovereign Bond Fund and Shareholders of John Hancock Bond Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the fund's investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of John Hancock Bond Fund (the "Fund") at May 31, 2015, 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. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at May 31, 2015 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, and the application of alternative auditing procedures where securities purchased confirmations had not been received, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures:
The trust’s Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm (the “Auditor”) relating to the operations or financial reporting of the funds. 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 trust’s Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures to, among other purposes, provide a framework for the Committee’s consideration of audit-related and non-audit services by the Auditor. The policies and procedures require that any audit-related and non-audit service provided by the Auditor and any non-audit service provided by the Auditor to a fund service provider that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of a fund are subject to approval by the Audit Committee before such service is provided. Audit-related services provided by the Auditor that are expected to exceed $25,000 per year/per fund are subject to specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Tax services provided by the Auditor that are expected to exceed $30,000 per year/per fund are subject to specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.
All audit services, as well as the audit-related and non-audit services that are expected to exceed the amounts stated above, must be approved in advance of provision of the service by formal resolution of the Audit Committee. At the regularly scheduled Audit Committee meetings, the Committee reviews a report summarizing the services, including fees, provided by the Auditor.

Audit-Related Fees, Tax Fees and All Other Fees:

Trust | May 31, 2015 | May 31, 2014 |
John Hancock Sovereign Bond Fund | $6,620,316 | $6,108,879 |
