Chairman's Message
(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)
Dear Shareholder:
During the past year or so, much has been reported about the mutual fund industry, and much of it has been more critical than I believe is warranted. Allegations that some companies have been less than forthright with their shareholders have cast a shadow on the entire industry. I continue to find these reports disturbing, and assert that they do not create an accurate picture of the industry overall. Therefore, I would like to remind everyone where Fidelity stands on these issues. I will say two things specifically regarding allegations that some mutual fund companies were in violation of the Securities and Exchange Commission's forward pricing rules or were involved in so-called "market timing" activities.
First, Fidelity has no agreements that permit customers who buy fund shares after 4 p.m. to obtain the 4 p.m. price. This is not a new policy. This is not to say that someone could not deceive the company through fraudulent acts. However, we are extremely diligent in preventing fraud from occurring in this manner - and in every other. But I underscore again that Fidelity has no so-called "agreements" that sanction illegal practices.
Second, Fidelity continues to stand on record, as we have for years, in opposition to predatory short-term trading that adversely affects shareholders in a mutual fund. Back in the 1980s, we initiated a fee - which is returned to the fund and, therefore, to investors - to discourage this activity. Further, we took the lead several years ago in developing a Fair Value Pricing Policy to prevent market timing on foreign securities in our funds. I am confident we will find other ways to make it more difficult for predatory traders to operate. However, this will only be achieved through close cooperation among regulators, legislators and the industry.
Yes, there have been unfortunate instances of unethical and illegal activity within the mutual fund industry from time to time. That is true of any industry. When this occurs, confessed or convicted offenders should be dealt with appropriately. But we are still concerned about the risk of over-regulation and the quick application of simplistic solutions to intricate problems. Every system can be improved, and we support and applaud well thought out improvements by regulators, legislators and industry representatives that achieve the common goal of building and protecting the value of investors' holdings.
For nearly 60 years, Fidelity has worked very hard to improve its products and service to justify your trust. When our family founded this company in 1946, we had only a few hundred customers. Today, we serve more than 18 million customers including individual investors and participants in retirement plans across America.
Let me close by saying that we do not take your trust in us for granted, and we realize that we must always work to improve all aspects of our service to you. In turn, we urge you to continue your active participation with your financial matters, so that your interests can be well served.
Best regards,
/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Shareholder Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2005 to June 30, 2005).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table below for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Semiannual Report
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

For the period ended June 30, 2005 (Unaudited)
1. Significant Accounting Policies.
Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap II Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (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 T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
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 fund:
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, including restricted 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. If prices are not readily available or do not accurately reflect fair value for a security, or if a security's value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, that security may be valued by another method that the Board of Trustees believes accurately reflects fair value. A security's valuation may differ depending on the method used for determining value. 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.
Foreign Currency. The fund uses 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.
Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued
1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
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 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. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. 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 each fund in the trust.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing all of its 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 the fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends 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 generally accepted accounting principles.
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 will reverse in a subsequent period.
Semiannual Report
1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders - continued
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), net operating losses and losses deferred due to wash sales.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 37,088,409 | |
Unrealized depreciation | (12,680,625) | |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ 24,407,784 | |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 418,396,782 |
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 fund and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts which are then invested in repurchase agreements. The fund may also invest directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by government or non-government securities. Collateral is held in segregated accounts with custodian banks and may be obtained in the event of a default of the counterparty. The fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure it is at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the value of the collateral may decline.
3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities and U.S. government securities, aggregated $431,334,691 and $151,943,579, respectively.
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is 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 total annualized management fee rate was .57% of the fund's average net assets.

Distribution and Service Plan. 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 Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, 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 and the total amounts paid to and retained by FDC were as follows:
Distribution | Service | Paid to | Retained | |
Class A | 0% | .25% | $ 79,103 | $ 804 |
Class T | .25% | .25% | 288,222 | 35,304 |
Class B | .75% | .25% | 127,353 | 96,146 |
Class C | .75% | .25% | 175,719 | 126,474 |
$ 670,397 | $ 258,728 |
Sales Load. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for selling Class A shares, and 3.50% for selling Class T shares, some of which is paid to financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund. FDC receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class A, Class T, Class B, and Class C redemptions. These charges depend on the holding period. The deferred sales charges range from 5% to 1% for Class B, 1% for Class C, and .25% for certain purchases of Class A and Class T shares.
For the period, sales charge amounts retained by FDC were as follows:
Retained | ||
Class A | $ 254,213 | |
Class T | 46,741 | |
Class B* | 15,506 | |
Class C* | 2,696 | |
$ 319,156 |
* When Class B and Class C shares are initially sold, FDC pays commissions from its own resources to financial intermediaries through which the sales are made.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent for each class of the fund. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of account of the shareholders of the

Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Central Funds. The fund may invest in affiliated Central Funds managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR. The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income. The Central Funds do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $352,519 for the period.
Brokerage Commissions. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $17,292 for the period.
5. Committed Line of Credit.
The fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $4.2 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 fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the line of credit. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.

6. Security Lending.
The fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. The 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 fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the fund 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 the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
7. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, are excluded from this reimbursement.
Expense | Reimbursement | |
Class A | 1.30% - 1.25%* | $ 36,716 |
Class T | 1.55% - 1.50%* | 2,667 |
Class B | 2.05% - 2.00%* | 15,378 |
Class C | 2.05% - 2.00%* | 18,769 |
Institutional Class | 1.05% - 1.00%* | 14,229 |
$ 87,759 |
* Expense limitation in effect at period end.
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the fund provided services to the fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the fund totaling $107,172 for the period. In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the fund's custody expenses by $256.

8. Other.
The 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, the fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
9. Distributions to Shareholders.
Distributions to shareholders of each class were as follows:
Six months ended | Period ended | |
From net realized gain | ||
Class A | $ 35,334 | $ - |
Class T | 31,905 | - |
Institutional Class | 7,242 | - |

Chairman's Message
(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)
Dear Shareholder:
During the past year or so, much has been reported about the mutual fund industry, and much of it has been more critical than I believe is warranted. Allegations that some companies have been less than forthright with their shareholders have cast a shadow on the entire industry. I continue to find these reports disturbing, and assert that they do not create an accurate picture of the industry overall. Therefore, I would like to remind everyone where Fidelity stands on these issues. I will say two things specifically regarding allegations that some mutual fund companies were in violation of the Securities and Exchange Commission's forward pricing rules or were involved in so-called "market timing" activities.
First, Fidelity has no agreements that permit customers who buy fund shares after 4 p.m. to obtain the 4 p.m. price. This is not a new policy. This is not to say that someone could not deceive the company through fraudulent acts. However, we are extremely diligent in preventing fraud from occurring in this manner - and in every other. But I underscore again that Fidelity has no so-called "agreements" that sanction illegal practices.
Second, Fidelity continues to stand on record, as we have for years, in opposition to predatory short-term trading that adversely affects shareholders in a mutual fund. Back in the 1980s, we initiated a fee - which is returned to the fund and, therefore, to investors - to discourage this activity. Further, we took the lead several years ago in developing a Fair Value Pricing Policy to prevent market timing on foreign securities in our funds. I am confident we will find other ways to make it more difficult for predatory traders to operate. However, this will only be achieved through close cooperation among regulators, legislators and the industry.
Yes, there have been unfortunate instances of unethical and illegal activity within the mutual fund industry from time to time. That is true of any industry. When this occurs, confessed or convicted offenders should be dealt with appropriately. But we are still concerned about the risk of over-regulation and the quick application of simplistic solutions to intricate problems. Every system can be improved, and we support and applaud well thought out improvements by regulators, legislators and industry representatives that achieve the common goal of building and protecting the value of investors' holdings.
For nearly 60 years, Fidelity has worked very hard to improve its products and service to justify your trust. When our family founded this company in 1946, we had only a few hundred customers. Today, we serve more than 18 million customers including individual investors and participants in retirement plans across America.
Let me close by saying that we do not take your trust in us for granted, and we realize that we must always work to improve all aspects of our service to you. In turn, we urge you to continue your active participation with your financial matters, so that your interests can be well served.
Best regards,
/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Shareholder Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2005 to June 30, 2005).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table below for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Semiannual Report
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
Beginning | Ending | Expenses Paid | |
Class A | |||
Actual | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,026.40 | $ 6.28 |
HypotheticalA | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,018.60 | $ 6.26 |

A 5% return per year before expenses
* Expenses are equal to each Class' annualized expense ratio (shown in the table below); multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

1. Significant Accounting Policies.
Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap II Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (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 T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
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 fund:
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, including restricted 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. If prices are not readily available or do not accurately reflect fair value for a security, or if a security's value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, that security may be valued by another method that the Board of Trustees believes accurately reflects fair value. A security's valuation may differ depending on the method used for determining value. 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.
Foreign Currency. The fund uses 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.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued
1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
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 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. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. 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 each fund in the trust.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing all of its 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 the fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends 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 generally accepted accounting principles.
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 will reverse in a subsequent period.

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders - continued
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), net operating losses and losses deferred due to wash sales.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 37,088,409 | |
Unrealized depreciation | (12,680,625) | |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ 24,407,784 | |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 418,396,782 |
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 fund and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts which are then invested in repurchase agreements. The fund may also invest directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by government or non-government securities. Collateral is held in segregated accounts with custodian banks and may be obtained in the event of a default of the counterparty. The fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure it is at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the value of the collateral may decline.
3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities and U.S. government securities, aggregated $431,334,691 and $151,943,579, respectively.
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is 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 total annualized management fee rate was .57% of the fund's average net assets.

Distribution and Service Plan. 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 Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, 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 and the total amounts paid to and retained by FDC were as follows:
Distribution | Service | Paid to | Retained | |
Class A | 0% | .25% | $ 79,103 | $ 804 |
Class T | .25% | .25% | 288,222 | 35,304 |
Class B | .75% | .25% | 127,353 | 96,146 |
Class C | .75% | .25% | 175,719 | 126,474 |
$ 670,397 | $ 258,728 |
Sales Load. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for selling Class A shares, and 3.50% for selling Class T shares, some of which is paid to financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund. FDC receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class A, Class T, Class B, and Class C redemptions. These charges depend on the holding period. The deferred sales charges range from 5% to 1% for Class B, 1% for Class C, and .25% for certain purchases of Class A and Class T shares.
For the period, sales charge amounts retained by FDC were as follows:
Retained | ||
Class A | $ 254,213 | |
Class T | 46,741 | |
Class B* | 15,506 | |
Class C* | 2,696 | |
$ 319,156 |
* When Class B and Class C shares are initially sold, FDC pays commissions from its own resources to financial intermediaries through which the sales are made.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent for each class of the fund. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of account of the shareholders of the
Semiannual Report

respective classes of the fund. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period the total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, were as follows:
Amount | % of | |
Class A | $ 116,549 | .37 * |
Class T | 149,939 | .26 * |
Class B | 48,031 | .38 * |
Class C | 64,861 | .37 * |
Institutional Class | 69,151 | .34 * |
$ 448,531 |
* Annualized
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Central Funds. The fund may invest in affiliated Central Funds managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR. The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income. The Central Funds do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $352,519 for the period.
Brokerage Commissions. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $17,292 for the period.
5. Committed Line of Credit.
The fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $4.2 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 fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the line of credit. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued
6. Security Lending.
The fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. The 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 fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the fund 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 the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
7. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, are excluded from this reimbursement.
Expense | Reimbursement | |
Class A | 1.30% - 1.25%* | $ 36,716 |
Class T | 1.55% - 1.50%* | 2,667 |
Class B | 2.05% - 2.00%* | 15,378 |
Class C | 2.05% - 2.00%* | 18,769 |
Institutional Class | 1.05% - 1.00%* | 14,229 |
$ 87,759 |
* Expense limitation in effect at period end.
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the fund provided services to the fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the fund totaling $107,172 for the period. In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the fund's custody expenses by $256.
Semiannual Report
8. Other.
The 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, the fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
9. Distributions to Shareholders.
Distributions to shareholders of each class were as follows:
Six months ended | Period ended | |

Chairman's Message
(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)
Dear Shareholder:
During the past year or so, much has been reported about the mutual fund industry, and much of it has been more critical than I believe is warranted. Allegations that some companies have been less than forthright with their shareholders have cast a shadow on the entire industry. I continue to find these reports disturbing, and assert that they do not create an accurate picture of the industry overall. Therefore, I would like to remind everyone where Fidelity stands on these issues. I will say two things specifically regarding allegations that some mutual fund companies were in violation of the Securities and Exchange Commission's forward pricing rules or were involved in so-called "market timing" activities.
First, Fidelity has no agreements that permit customers who buy fund shares after 4 p.m. to obtain the 4 p.m. price. This is not a new policy. This is not to say that someone could not deceive the company through fraudulent acts. However, we are extremely diligent in preventing fraud from occurring in this manner - and in every other. But I underscore again that Fidelity has no so-called "agreements" that sanction illegal practices.
Second, Fidelity continues to stand on record, as we have for years, in opposition to predatory short-term trading that adversely affects shareholders in a mutual fund. Back in the 1980s, we initiated a fee - which is returned to the fund and, therefore, to investors - to discourage this activity. Further, we took the lead several years ago in developing a Fair Value Pricing Policy to prevent market timing on foreign securities in our funds. I am confident we will find other ways to make it more difficult for predatory traders to operate. However, this will only be achieved through close cooperation among regulators, legislators and the industry.
Yes, there have been unfortunate instances of unethical and illegal activity within the mutual fund industry from time to time. That is true of any industry. When this occurs, confessed or convicted offenders should be dealt with appropriately. But we are still concerned about the risk of over-regulation and the quick application of simplistic solutions to intricate problems. Every system can be improved, and we support and applaud well thought out improvements by regulators, legislators and industry representatives that achieve the common goal of building and protecting the value of investors' holdings.
For nearly 60 years, Fidelity has worked very hard to improve its products and service to justify your trust. When our family founded this company in 1946, we had only a few hundred customers. Today, we serve more than 18 million customers including individual investors and participants in retirement plans across America.
Let me close by saying that we do not take your trust in us for granted, and we realize that we must always work to improve all aspects of our service to you. In turn, we urge you to continue your active participation with your financial matters, so that your interests can be well served.
Best regards,
/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Semiannual Report
Shareholder Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2005 to June 30, 2005).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table below for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Semiannual Report
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

D Calculated based on average shares outstanding during the period.
E Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed by the investment adviser or reductions from brokerage service arrangements or other expense offset arrangements and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements or reductions occur. Expenses net of any voluntary waivers reflect expenses after reimbursement by the investment adviser but prior to reductions from brokerage service arrangements or other expense offset arrangements. Expenses net of all reductions represent the net expenses paid by the class.
F Effective January 1, 2001, the fund adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities. Per-share data and ratios for periods prior to adoption have not been restated to reflect this change.

1. Significant Accounting Policies.
Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (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 T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
The fund may invest in affiliated fixed-income and money market central funds (Underlying Funds) managed by affiliates of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR). 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 fund and underlying fixed-income funds (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. Debt securities, including restricted 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 valuation models. Equity securities, including restricted 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. If prices are not readily available or do not accurately reflect fair value for a security, or if a security's value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, that security may be valued by another method that the Board of Trustees believes accurately reflects fair value. A security's valuation may differ depending on the method used for determining value.

Security Valuation - continued
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, including Underlying Funds, are valued at their net asset value each business day.
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, including the fund's investment activity in the Underlying Funds, 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 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. Interest income, including income from the Underlying Funds, is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectibility of interest is reasonably assured.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each fund in the trust.

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing all of its 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 the fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Dividends are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends 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 generally accepted accounting principles.
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 will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, prior period premium and discount on debt securities, defaulted bonds, market discount, non-taxable dividends, swap agreements, and losses deferred due to wash sales.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 121,218 | |
Unrealized depreciation | (31,739) | |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ 89,479 | |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 2,865,601 |
2. Operating Policies.
Repurchase Agreements. FMR has received an Exemptive Order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) which permits certain funds and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts which are then invested in repurchase agreements. Certain funds may also invest directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by government or non-government securities. Collateral is held in segregated accounts with custodian banks and may be obtained in the event of a default of the counterparty. Each applicable fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure it is at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the value of the collateral may decline.

2. Operating Policies - continued
Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. Certain funds 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 the fund's Schedule of Investments. Certain funds may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, each applicable fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. The payables and receivables associated with the purchases and sales of delayed delivery securities having the same coupon, settlement date and broker are offset. Delayed delivery or when-issued securities that have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected as both payables and receivables in the fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities under the caption "Delayed delivery". Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, 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 at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.
Loans and Other Direct Debt Instruments. Certain funds may invest in loans and loan participations, trade claims or other receivables. These investments may include standby financing commitments, including revolving credit facilities, that obligate the fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Loan participations involve a risk of insolvency of the lending bank or other financial intermediary. The fund may be contractually obligated to receive approval from the agent bank and/or borrower prior to the sale of these investments.
Swap Agreements. Certain funds may invest in swaps for the purpose of managing their exposure to interest rate, credit or market risk.
Interest rate swaps are agreements to exchange cash flows periodically based on a notional principal amount, for example, the exchange of fixed rate interest payments for floating rate interest payments. Periodic payments received or made by the fund are recorded in the accompanying Statement of Operations as realized gains or losses,
Semiannual Report
2. Operating Policies - continued
Swap Agreements - continued
respectively. The primary risk associated with interest rate swaps is that unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates could adversely impact a fund.
Swaps are marked-to-market daily based on dealer-supplied valuations and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Gains or losses are realized upon early termination of the swap agreement. Collateral, in the form of cash or securities, may be required to be held in segregated accounts with a fund's custodian in compliance with swap contracts.
Mortgage Dollar Rolls. To earn additional income, certain funds may employ trading strategies which involve the sale and simultaneous agreement to repurchase similar securities ("mortgage dollar rolls") or the purchase and simultaneous agreement to sell similar securities ("reverse mortgage dollar rolls"). The securities traded are mortgage securities and bear the same interest rate but may be collateralized by different pools of mortgages. During the period between the sale and repurchase in a mortgage dollar roll transaction, a fund will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities sold but will invest the proceeds of the sale in other securities which may enhance the yield and total return. In addition, the difference between the sale price and the future purchase price is recorded as an adjustment to investment income. During the period between the purchase and subsequent sale in a reverse mortgage dollar roll transaction a fund is entitled to interest and principal payments on the securities purchased. The price differential between the purchase and sale is recorded as an adjustment to investment income. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the terms of the agreement. If the counterparty files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, a fund's right to repurchase or sell securities may be limited.
3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities and U.S. government securities, aggregated $938,155 and $732,534, respectively.
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .45% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .12% during the period. The group fee rate is 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

Management Fee - continued
increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .58% of the fund's average net assets.
Distribution and Service Plan. 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 Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, 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 and the total amounts paid to and retained by FDC were as follows:
Distribution | Service | Paid to | Retained | |
Class A | 0% | .15% | $ 322 | $ 3 |
Class T | 0% | .25% | 1,194 | 51 |
Class B | .65% | .25% | 1,467 | 1,063 |
Class C | .75% | .25% | 2,202 | 743 |
$ 5,185 | $ 1,860 |
Sales Load. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 4.75% for selling Class A shares, and 3.50% for selling Class T shares, some of which is paid to financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund. FDC receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class A, Class T, Class B, and Class C redemptions. These charges depend on the holding period. The deferred sales charges range from 5% to 1% for Class B, 1% for Class C, and .25% for certain purchases of Class A and Class T shares.
For the period, sales charge amounts retained by FDC were as follows:
Retained | ||
Class A | $ 432 | |
Class T | 140 | |
Class B* | 335 | |
Class C* | 47 | |
$ 954 |
* When Class B and Class C shares are initially sold, FDC pays commissions from its own resources to financial intermediaries through which the sales are made.

Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent for each class of the fund. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period the total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, were as follows:
Amount | % of | |
Class A | $ 427 | .20* |
Class T | 767 | .16* |
Class B | 382 | .24* |
Class C | 394 | .18* |
Institutional Class | 357 | .16* |
$ 2,327 |
* Annualized
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the fund's accounting records. The fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month.
Central Funds. Certain funds may invest in affiliated Central Funds managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), Fidelity Management & Research Company, Inc. (FMRC), affiliates of FMR. The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income. The Floating Rate Central Investment Portfolio seeks a high level of income. The Central Funds do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $4,053 for the period.
5. Committed Line of Credit.
The fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $4.2 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 fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the line of credit. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.

6. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, are excluded from this reimbursement.
Expense | Reimbursement | |
Class A | 1.25% -1.00%* | $ 29 |
Class B | 2.00% -1.75%* | 91 |
Class C | 2.10% -1.85%* | 18 |
$ 138 |
* Expense limitation in effect at period end.
In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the fund's custody expenses by $10.
7. Credit Risk.
The fund's relatively large investment in countries with limited or developing capital markets may involve greater risks than investments in more developed markets and the prices of such investments may be volatile. The yields of emerging market debt obligations reflect, among other things, perceived credit risk. The consequences of political, social or economic changes in these markets may have disruptive effects on the market prices of the fund's investments and the income they generate, as well as the fund's ability to repatriate such amounts.
8. Other.
The 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, the fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts and Management Fees
Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund
Each year, typically in June, the Board of Trustees, including the independent Trustees (together, the Board), votes on the renewal of the management contract and sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund. The Board, assisted by the advice of fund counsel and independent Trustees' counsel, requests and considers a broad range of information throughout the year.
The Board meets regularly each month except August and takes into account throughout the year matters bearing on Advisory Contracts. The Board, acting directly and through its separate committees, considers at each of its meetings factors that are relevant to the annual renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts, including the services and support provided to the fund and its shareholders by Fidelity. At the time of the renewal, the Board had 11 standing committees, each composed of independent Trustees with varying backgrounds, to which the Board has assigned specific subject matter responsibilities in order to enhance effective decision-making by the Board. Each committee has adopted a written charter outlining the structure and purposes of the committee. One such committee, the Fixed-Income Contract Committee, meets periodically during the first six months of each year and as necessary to consider matters specifically related to the annual renewal of Advisory Contracts. The committee requests and receives information on, and makes recommendations to the independent Trustees concerning, the approval and annual review of the Advisory Contracts.
At its June 2005 meeting, the Board of Trustees, including the independent Trustees, unanimously determined to renew the Advisory Contracts for the fund. In reaching its determination, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided to the fund and its shareholders by Fidelity (including the investment performance of the fund); (2) the competitiveness of the management fee and total expenses of the fund; (3) the total costs of the services to be provided by and the profits to be realized by the investment adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the fund; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the fund grows; and (5) whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale, if any, for the benefit of fund shareholders.
In determining whether to renew the Advisory Contracts for the fund, the Board ultimately reached a determination, with the assistance of fund counsel and independent Trustees' counsel, that the renewal of the Advisory Contracts and the compensation to be received by Fidelity under the management contract is consistent with Fidelity's fiduciary duty under applicable law. In addition to evaluating the specific factors noted above, the Board, in reaching its determination, is aware that shareholders in the fund have a broad range of investment choices available to them, including a wide choice among mutual funds offered by competitors to Fidelity, and that the fund's shareholders, with the opportunity to review and weigh the disclosure provided by the fund in its prospectus and other public disclosures, have chosen to invest in this fund, managed by Fidelity.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided by Fidelity. The Board considered staffing within the investment adviser, FMR, and the sub-advisers (together, the Investment Advisers), including the background of the fund's portfolio manager and the fund's investment objective and discipline. The independent Trustees also had discussions with senior management of Fidelity's investment operations and investment groups. The Board considered the structure of the portfolio manager compensation program and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives.
Fidelity Resources Dedicated to Investment Management and Support Services. The Board reviewed the size, education, and experience of the Investment Advisers' investment staff, their use of technology, and the Investment Advisers' approach to recruiting, training, and retaining portfolio managers and other research, advisory, and management personnel. The Board considered Fidelity's extensive global research capabilities that enable the Investment Advisers to aggregate data from various sources in an effort to produce positive investment results. The Board noted that Fidelity's analysts have access to a variety of technological tools that enable them to perform both fundamental and quantitative analysis and to specialize in various disciplines. The Board also considered that Fidelity's portfolio managers and analysts have access to daily portfolio attribution that allows for monitoring of a fund's portfolio, as well as an electronic communication system that provides immediate real-time access to research concerning issuers and credit enhancers.
Shareholder and Administrative Services. The Board considered the nature, extent, quality, and cost of administrative, distribution, and shareholder services performed by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates under the Advisory Contracts and under separate agreements covering transfer agency, pricing and bookkeeping, and securities lending services for the fund. The Board also considered the nature and extent of the Investment Advisers' supervision of third party service providers, principally custodians and subcustodians. The Board 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 that Fidelity voluntarily decided in 2004 to stop using "soft" commission dollars to pay for market data and, instead, to pay for that data out of its own resources. The Board also considered the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, the fund's compliance policies and procedures.
The Board noted that the growth of fund assets across the complex allows Fidelity to reinvest in the development of services designed to enhance the value or convenience of the Fidelity funds as investment vehicles. These services include 24-hour access to account information and market information through phone representatives and over the Internet, and investor education materials and asset allocation tools.

Investment in a Large Fund Family. The Board considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a Fidelity fund, including the benefits of investing in a fund that is part of a large family of funds offering a variety of investment disciplines and providing for a large variety of mutual fund investor services. For example, fund shareholders are offered the privilege of exchanging shares of the fund for shares of other Fidelity funds, as set forth in the fund's prospectus, without paying an additional sales charge. The Board noted that, since the last Advisory Contract renewals in June 2004, Fidelity has taken a number of actions that benefited particular funds, including (i) voluntarily deciding in 2004 to stop using "soft" commission dollars to pay for market data and, instead, to pay for that data out of its own resources, (ii) contractually agreeing to impose management fee reductions and expense limitations on its five Spartan stock index funds and its stock index fund available through variable insurance products, (iii) contractually agreeing to eliminate the management fees on the Fidelity Freedom Funds and the Fidelity Advisor Freedom Funds, (iv) contractually agreeing to reduce the management fees on most of its investment-grade taxable bond funds, and (v) contractually agreeing to impose expense limitations on its retail and Spartan investment-grade taxable bond funds.
Investment Performance. The Board considered whether the fund has operated within its investment objective, as well as its record of compliance with its investment restrictions. It also reviewed the fund's absolute investment performance for each class, as well as the fund's relative investment performance for each class measured against (i) a broad-based securities market index, and (ii) a peer group of mutual funds deemed appropriate by the Board over multiple periods. The following charts considered by the Board show, over the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended December 31, 2004, the returns of Class C and Institutional Class of the fund, the returns of a broad-based securities market index ("benchmark"), and a range of returns of a peer group of mutual funds identified by Lipper Inc. as having an investment objective similar to that of the fund. The returns of Class C and Institutional Class represent the performance of classes with the highest and lowest 12b-1 fees, respectively (not necessarily with the highest and lowest total expenses). The box within each chart shows the 25th percentile return (bottom of box) and the 75th percentile return (top of box) of the Lipper peer group. The percentage beaten numbers noted below each chart correspond to the percentile box and represent the percentage of funds in the Lipper peer group whose performance was equal to or lower than that of the class indicated.

Management Fees - continued
The Board noted that the relative investment performance of Institutional Class of the fund has compared favorably to its Lipper peer group over time. The Board also noted that the relative investment performance of Institutional Class of the fund has compared favorably to its benchmark over time, although the fund's one-year cumulative total return was lower than its benchmark. The Board considered that the variations in performance among the fund's classes reflect the variations in class expenses, which result in lower performance for higher expense classes.
Based on its review, and giving particular weight to the nature and quality of the resources dedicated by the Investment Advisers to maintain and improve relative performance, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by Fidelity will benefit the fund's shareholders, particularly in light of the Board's view that the fund's shareholders benefit from investing in a fund that is part of a large family of funds offering a variety of investment disciplines and services.
Competitiveness of Management Fee and Total Fund Expenses. The Board considered the fund's management fee and total expenses compared to "mapped groups" of competitive funds and classes. Fidelity creates "mapped groups" by combining similar Lipper investment objective categories that have comparable management fee characteristics. Combining Lipper investment objective categories aids the Board's management fee and total expense comparisons by broadening the competitive group used for comparison and by reducing the number of universes to which various Fidelity funds are compared.
The Board considered two proprietary management fee comparisons for the 12-month periods shown in the chart below. The group of Lipper funds used by the Board for management fee comparisons is referred to below as the "Total Mapped Group" and, for the reasons explained above, is broader than the Lipper peer group used by the Board for performance comparisons. The Total Mapped Group comparison focuses on a fund's standing relative to the total universe of comparable funds available to investors, in terms of gross management fees before expense reimbursements or caps. "TMG %" represents the percentage of funds in the Total Mapped Group that had management fees that were lower than the fund's. For example, a TMG % of 27% would mean that 73% of the funds in the Total Mapped Group had higher management fees than the fund. The "Asset-Size Peer Group" (ASPG) comparison focuses on a fund's standing relative to non-Fidelity funds similar in size to the fund within the Total Mapped Group. The ASPG represents at least 15% of the funds in the Total Mapped Group with comparable asset size and management fee characteristics, subject to a minimum of 50 funds (or all funds in the Total Mapped Group if fewer than 50). Additional information, such as the ASPG quartile ("quadrant") in which the fund's management fee ranked, is also included in the chart and considered by the Board.
Semiannual Report
The Board noted that the fund's management fee ranked below the median of its Total Mapped Group and below the median of its ASPG for 2004. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the fund's management fee was fair and reasonable in light of the services that the fund receives and the other factors considered.
In its review of each class's total expenses, the Board considered the fund's management fee as well as other fund or class expenses, as applicable, such as transfer agent fees, pricing and bookkeeping fees, fund-paid 12b-1 fees, and custodial, legal, and audit fees. The Board also noted the effects of any waivers and reimbursements on fees and expenses. As part of its review, the Board also considered current and historical total expenses of each class of the fund compared to competitive fund median expenses. Each class of the fund is compared to those funds and classes in the Total Mapped Group (used by the Board for management fee comparisons) that have a similar sales load structure.

Management Fees - continued
The Board noted that the total expenses of each of Class A, Class T, Class B, and Institutional Class ranked below its competitive median for 2004, and the total expenses of Class C ranked above its competitive median for 2004. The Board noted that the fund offers multiple classes, each of which has a different sales load and 12b-1 fee structure, and that the multiple structures are intended to offer a range of pricing options for the intermediary market. The Board also noted that the total expenses of the classes vary primarily by the level of their 12b-1 fees, although differences in transfer agent fees may also cause expenses to vary from class to class.
In its review of total expenses, the Board also considered Fidelity fee structures and other information on clients that FMR and its affiliates service in other competitive markets, such as other mutual funds advised or subadvised by FMR or its affiliates, pension plan clients, and other institutional clients.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the total expenses for each class of the fund were reasonable, although in one case above the median of the universe presented for comparison, 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 its shareholders. The Board also considered the level of Fidelity's profits in respect of all the Fidelity funds.
On an annual basis, FMR presents to the Board Fidelity's profitability for the fund. Fidelity calculates the profitability for each fund, as well as aggregate profitability for groups of Fidelity funds and all Fidelity funds, using a series of detailed revenue and cost allocation methodologies which originate with the audited books and records of Fidelity. The Audit Committee of the Board reviews any significant changes from the prior year's methodologies.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC), independent registered accounting firm and auditor to Fidelity and certain Fidelity funds, has been engaged annually by the Board as part of the Board's assessment of the results of Fidelity's profitability analysis. PwC's engagement includes the review and assessment of Fidelity's methodologies used in determining the revenues and expenses attributable to Fidelity's mutual fund business, and completion of agreed-upon procedures surrounding the mathematical accuracy of fund profitability and its conformity to allocation methodologies. After considering PwC's reports issued under the engagement and information provided by Fidelity, the Board believes that while other allocation methods may also be reasonable, Fidelity's profitability methodologies are reasonable in all material respects.
Semiannual Report
The Board has also reviewed Fidelity's non-fund businesses and any fall-out benefits related to the mutual fund business as well as cases where Fidelity's affiliates may benefit from or be related to the fund's business. In addition, a special committee of the Board reviewed services provided to Fidelity by its affiliates and determined that the fees that Fidelity paid for such services were reasonable.
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 determined that the amount of profit is a fair entrepreneurial profit for the management of the fund.
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 through increased services to the fund, through waivers or reimbursements, or through fee or expense reductions, including reductions that occur through operation of the transfer agent agreement. The transfer agent fee varies in part based on the number of accounts in the fund. If the number of accounts decreases or the average account size increases, the overall transfer agent fee rate decreases.
The Board recognized that the fund's management contract incorporates a "group fee" structure, which provides for lower fee rates as total fund assets under FMR's management increase, and for higher fee rates as total fund assets under FMR's management decrease. The Board considered that the group fee is designed to deliver the benefits of economies of scale to fund shareholders when total fund assets increase, 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 Fidelity funds, and all funds benefit if those costs can be allocated among more assets. The Board concluded that, given the group fee structure, fund shareholders will achieve a certain level of economies of scale as assets under FMR's management increase at the fund complex level, regardless of whether Fidelity achieves any such economies of scale.
The Board further concluded that any potential economies of scale are being shared between fund shareholders and Fidelity in an appropriate manner.
Additional Information Requested by the Board. In order to develop fully the factual basis for consideration of the Advisory Contracts, the Board requested additional information regarding (i) Fidelity's fund profitability methodology, including additional detail on various cost allocations; (ii) fall-out benefits to Fidelity; and (iii) compensation of portfolio managers and research analysts.

Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all material factors, the Board ultimately concluded that the existing advisory fee structures are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's existing Advisory Contracts should be renewed.

Chairman's Message
(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)
Dear Shareholder:
During the past year or so, much has been reported about the mutual fund industry, and much of it has been more critical than I believe is warranted. Allegations that some companies have been less than forthright with their shareholders have cast a shadow on the entire industry. I continue to find these reports disturbing, and assert that they do not create an accurate picture of the industry overall. Therefore, I would like to remind everyone where Fidelity stands on these issues. I will say two things specifically regarding allegations that some mutual fund companies were in violation of the Securities and Exchange Commission's forward pricing rules or were involved in so-called "market timing" activities.
First, Fidelity has no agreements that permit customers who buy fund shares after 4 p.m. to obtain the 4 p.m. price. This is not a new policy. This is not to say that someone could not deceive the company through fraudulent acts. However, we are extremely diligent in preventing fraud from occurring in this manner - and in every other. But I underscore again that Fidelity has no so-called "agreements" that sanction illegal practices.
Second, Fidelity continues to stand on record, as we have for years, in opposition to predatory short-term trading that adversely affects shareholders in a mutual fund. Back in the 1980s, we initiated a fee - which is returned to the fund and, therefore, to investors - to discourage this activity. Further, we took the lead several years ago in developing a Fair Value Pricing Policy to prevent market timing on foreign securities in our funds. I am confident we will find other ways to make it more difficult for predatory traders to operate. However, this will only be achieved through close cooperation among regulators, legislators and the industry.
Yes, there have been unfortunate instances of unethical and illegal activity within the mutual fund industry from time to time. That is true of any industry. When this occurs, confessed or convicted offenders should be dealt with appropriately. But we are still concerned about the risk of over-regulation and the quick application of simplistic solutions to intricate problems. Every system can be improved, and we support and applaud well thought out improvements by regulators, legislators and industry representatives that achieve the common goal of building and protecting the value of investors' holdings.
For nearly 60 years, Fidelity has worked very hard to improve its products and service to justify your trust. When our family founded this company in 1946, we had only a few hundred customers. Today, we serve more than 18 million customers including individual investors and participants in retirement plans across America.
Let me close by saying that we do not take your trust in us for granted, and we realize that we must always work to improve all aspects of our service to you. In turn, we urge you to continue your active participation with your financial matters, so that your interests can be well served.
Best regards,
/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Shareholder Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2005 to June 30, 2005).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table below for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Semiannual Report
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
Beginning | Ending | Expenses Paid | |
Class A | |||
Actual | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,012.00 | $ 4.99 |

A 5% return per year before expenses
* Expenses are equal to each Class' annualized expense ratio (shown in the table below); multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

1. Significant Accounting Policies.
Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (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 T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
The fund may invest in affiliated fixed-income and money market central funds (Underlying Funds) managed by affiliates of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR). 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 fund and underlying fixed-income funds (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. Debt securities, including restricted 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 valuation models. Equity securities, including restricted 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. If prices are not readily available or do not accurately reflect fair value for a security, or if a security's value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, that security may be valued by another method that the Board of Trustees believes accurately reflects fair value. A security's valuation may differ depending on the method used for determining value.

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Security Valuation - continued
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, including Underlying Funds, are valued at their net asset value each business day.
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, including the fund's investment activity in the Underlying Funds, 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 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. Interest income, including income from the Underlying Funds, is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectibility of interest is reasonably assured.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each fund in the trust.

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing all of its 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 the fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Dividends are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends 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 generally accepted accounting principles.
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 will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, prior period premium and discount on debt securities, defaulted bonds, market discount, non-taxable dividends, swap agreements, and losses deferred due to wash sales.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 121,218 | |
Unrealized depreciation | (31,739) | |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ 89,479 | |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 2,865,601 |
2. Operating Policies.
Repurchase Agreements. FMR has received an Exemptive Order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) which permits certain funds and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts which are then invested in repurchase agreements. Certain funds may also invest directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by government or non-government securities. Collateral is held in segregated accounts with custodian banks and may be obtained in the event of a default of the counterparty. Each applicable fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure it is at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the value of the collateral may decline.

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. Certain funds 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 the fund's Schedule of Investments. Certain funds may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, each applicable fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. The payables and receivables associated with the purchases and sales of delayed delivery securities having the same coupon, settlement date and broker are offset. Delayed delivery or when-issued securities that have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected as both payables and receivables in the fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities under the caption "Delayed delivery". Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, 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 at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.
Loans and Other Direct Debt Instruments. Certain funds may invest in loans and loan participations, trade claims or other receivables. These investments may include standby financing commitments, including revolving credit facilities, that obligate the fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Loan participations involve a risk of insolvency of the lending bank or other financial intermediary. The fund may be contractually obligated to receive approval from the agent bank and/or borrower prior to the sale of these investments.
Swap Agreements. Certain funds may invest in swaps for the purpose of managing their exposure to interest rate, credit or market risk.
Interest rate swaps are agreements to exchange cash flows periodically based on a notional principal amount, for example, the exchange of fixed rate interest payments for floating rate interest payments. Periodic payments received or made by the fund are recorded in the accompanying Statement of Operations as realized gains or losses,

respectively. The primary risk associated with interest rate swaps is that unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates could adversely impact a fund.
Swaps are marked-to-market daily based on dealer-supplied valuations and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Gains or losses are realized upon early termination of the swap agreement. Collateral, in the form of cash or securities, may be required to be held in segregated accounts with a fund's custodian in compliance with swap contracts.
Mortgage Dollar Rolls. To earn additional income, certain funds may employ trading strategies which involve the sale and simultaneous agreement to repurchase similar securities ("mortgage dollar rolls") or the purchase and simultaneous agreement to sell similar securities ("reverse mortgage dollar rolls"). The securities traded are mortgage securities and bear the same interest rate but may be collateralized by different pools of mortgages. During the period between the sale and repurchase in a mortgage dollar roll transaction, a fund will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities sold but will invest the proceeds of the sale in other securities which may enhance the yield and total return. In addition, the difference between the sale price and the future purchase price is recorded as an adjustment to investment income. During the period between the purchase and subsequent sale in a reverse mortgage dollar roll transaction a fund is entitled to interest and principal payments on the securities purchased. The price differential between the purchase and sale is recorded as an adjustment to investment income. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the terms of the agreement. If the counterparty files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, a fund's right to repurchase or sell securities may be limited.
3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities and U.S. government securities, aggregated $938,155 and $732,534, respectively.
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .45% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .12% during the period. The group fee rate is 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 total annualized management fee rate was .58% of the fund's average net assets.
Distribution and Service Plan. 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 Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, 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 and the total amounts paid to and retained by FDC were as follows:
Distribution | Service | Paid to | Retained | |
Class A | 0% | .15% | $ 322 | $ 3 |
Class T | 0% | .25% | 1,194 | 51 |
Class B | .65% | .25% | 1,467 | 1,063 |
Class C | .75% | .25% | 2,202 | 743 |
$ 5,185 | $ 1,860 |
Sales Load. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 4.75% for selling Class A shares, and 3.50% for selling Class T shares, some of which is paid to financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund. FDC receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class A, Class T, Class B, and Class C redemptions. These charges depend on the holding period. The deferred sales charges range from 5% to 1% for Class B, 1% for Class C, and .25% for certain purchases of Class A and Class T shares.
For the period, sales charge amounts retained by FDC were as follows:
Retained | ||
Class A | $ 432 | |
Class T | 140 | |
Class B* | 335 | |
Class C* | 47 | |
$ 954 |
* When Class B and Class C shares are initially sold, FDC pays commissions from its own resources to financial intermediaries through which the sales are made.

Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent for each class of the fund. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period the total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, were as follows:
Amount | % of | |
Class A | $ 427 | .20* |
Class T | 767 | .16* |
Class B | 382 | .24* |
Class C | 394 | .18* |
Institutional Class | 357 | .16* |
$ 2,327 |
* Annualized
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the fund's accounting records. The fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month.
Central Funds. Certain funds may invest in affiliated Central Funds managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), Fidelity Management & Research Company, Inc. (FMRC), affiliates of FMR. The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income. The Floating Rate Central Investment Portfolio seeks a high level of income. The Central Funds do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $4,053 for the period.
5. Committed Line of Credit.
The fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $4.2 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 fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the line of credit. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.

6. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, are excluded from this reimbursement.
Expense | Reimbursement | |
Class A | 1.25% -1.00%* | $ 29 |
Class B | 2.00% -1.75%* | 91 |
Class C | 2.10% -1.85%* | 18 |
$ 138 |
* Expense limitation in effect at period end.
In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the fund's custody expenses by $10.
7. Credit Risk.
The fund's relatively large investment in countries with limited or developing capital markets may involve greater risks than investments in more developed markets and the prices of such investments may be volatile. The yields of emerging market debt obligations reflect, among other things, perceived credit risk. The consequences of political, social or economic changes in these markets may have disruptive effects on the market prices of the fund's investments and the income they generate, as well as the fund's ability to repatriate such amounts.
8. Other.
The 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, the fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts and Management Fees
Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund
Each year, typically in June, the Board of Trustees, including the independent Trustees (together, the Board), votes on the renewal of the management contract and sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund. The Board, assisted by the advice of fund counsel and independent Trustees' counsel, requests and considers a broad range of information throughout the year.
The Board meets regularly each month except August and takes into account throughout the year matters bearing on Advisory Contracts. The Board, acting directly and through its separate committees, considers at each of its meetings factors that are relevant to the annual renewal of the fund's Advisory Contracts, including the services and support provided to the fund and its shareholders by Fidelity. At the time of the renewal, the Board had 11 standing committees, each composed of independent Trustees with varying backgrounds, to which the Board has assigned specific subject matter responsibilities in order to enhance effective decision-making by the Board. Each committee has adopted a written charter outlining the structure and purposes of the committee. One such committee, the Fixed-Income Contract Committee, meets periodically during the first six months of each year and as necessary to consider matters specifically related to the annual renewal of Advisory Contracts. The committee requests and receives information on, and makes recommendations to the independent Trustees concerning, the approval and annual review of the Advisory Contracts.
At its June 2005 meeting, the Board of Trustees, including the independent Trustees, unanimously determined to renew the Advisory Contracts for the fund. In reaching its determination, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided to the fund and its shareholders by Fidelity (including the investment performance of the fund); (2) the competitiveness of the management fee and total expenses of the fund; (3) the total costs of the services to be provided by and the profits to be realized by the investment adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the fund; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the fund grows; and (5) whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale, if any, for the benefit of fund shareholders.
In determining whether to renew the Advisory Contracts for the fund, the Board ultimately reached a determination, with the assistance of fund counsel and independent Trustees' counsel, that the renewal of the Advisory Contracts and the compensation to be received by Fidelity under the management contract is consistent with Fidelity's fiduciary duty under applicable law. In addition to evaluating the specific factors noted above, the Board, in reaching its determination, is aware that shareholders in the fund have a broad range of investment choices available to them, including a wide choice among mutual funds offered by competitors to Fidelity, and that the fund's shareholders, with the opportunity to review and weigh the disclosure provided by the fund in its prospectus and other public disclosures, have chosen to invest in this fund, managed by Fidelity.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided by Fidelity. The Board considered staffing within the investment adviser, FMR, and the sub-advisers (together, the Investment Advisers), including the background of the fund's portfolio manager and the fund's investment objective and discipline. The independent Trustees also had discussions with senior management of Fidelity's investment operations and investment groups. The Board considered the structure of the portfolio manager compensation program and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives.
Fidelity Resources Dedicated to Investment Management and Support Services. The Board reviewed the size, education, and experience of the Investment Advisers' investment staff, their use of technology, and the Investment Advisers' approach to recruiting, training, and retaining portfolio managers and other research, advisory, and management personnel. The Board considered Fidelity's extensive global research capabilities that enable the Investment Advisers to aggregate data from various sources in an effort to produce positive investment results. The Board noted that Fidelity's analysts have access to a variety of technological tools that enable them to perform both fundamental and quantitative analysis and to specialize in various disciplines. The Board also considered that Fidelity's portfolio managers and analysts have access to daily portfolio attribution that allows for monitoring of a fund's portfolio, as well as an electronic communication system that provides immediate real-time access to research concerning issuers and credit enhancers.
Shareholder and Administrative Services. The Board considered the nature, extent, quality, and cost of administrative, distribution, and shareholder services performed by the Investment Advisers and their affiliates under the Advisory Contracts and under separate agreements covering transfer agency, pricing and bookkeeping, and securities lending services for the fund. The Board also considered the nature and extent of the Investment Advisers' supervision of third party service providers, principally custodians and subcustodians. The Board 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 that Fidelity voluntarily decided in 2004 to stop using "soft" commission dollars to pay for market data and, instead, to pay for that data out of its own resources. The Board also considered the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, the fund's compliance policies and procedures.
The Board noted that the growth of fund assets across the complex allows Fidelity to reinvest in the development of services designed to enhance the value or convenience of the Fidelity funds as investment vehicles. These services include 24-hour access to account information and market information through phone representatives and over the Internet, and investor education materials and asset allocation tools.
Semiannual Report
Investment in a Large Fund Family. The Board considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a Fidelity fund, including the benefits of investing in a fund that is part of a large family of funds offering a variety of investment disciplines and providing for a large variety of mutual fund investor services. For example, fund shareholders are offered the privilege of exchanging shares of the fund for shares of other Fidelity funds, as set forth in the fund's prospectus, without paying an additional sales charge. The Board noted that, since the last Advisory Contract renewals in June 2004, Fidelity has taken a number of actions that benefited particular funds, including (i) voluntarily deciding in 2004 to stop using "soft" commission dollars to pay for market data and, instead, to pay for that data out of its own resources, (ii) contractually agreeing to impose management fee reductions and expense limitations on its five Spartan stock index funds and its stock index fund available through variable insurance products, (iii) contractually agreeing to eliminate the management fees on the Fidelity Freedom Funds and the Fidelity Advisor Freedom Funds, (iv) contractually agreeing to reduce the management fees on most of its investment-grade taxable bond funds, and (v) contractually agreeing to impose expense limitations on its retail and Spartan investment-grade taxable bond funds.
Investment Performance. The Board considered whether the fund has operated within its investment objective, as well as its record of compliance with its investment restrictions. It also reviewed the fund's absolute investment performance for each class, as well as the fund's relative investment performance for each class measured against (i) a broad-based securities market index, and (ii) a peer group of mutual funds deemed appropriate by the Board over multiple periods. The following charts considered by the Board show, over the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended December 31, 2004, the returns of Class C and Institutional Class of the fund, the returns of a broad-based securities market index ("benchmark"), and a range of returns of a peer group of mutual funds identified by Lipper Inc. as having an investment objective similar to that of the fund. The returns of Class C and Institutional Class represent the performance of classes with the highest and lowest 12b-1 fees, respectively (not necessarily with the highest and lowest total expenses). The box within each chart shows the 25th percentile return (bottom of box) and the 75th percentile return (top of box) of the Lipper peer group. The percentage beaten numbers noted below each chart correspond to the percentile box and represent the percentage of funds in the Lipper peer group whose performance was equal to or lower than that of the class indicated.

Management Fees - continued
The Board noted that the relative investment performance of Institutional Class of the fund has compared favorably to its Lipper peer group over time. The Board also noted that the relative investment performance of Institutional Class of the fund has compared favorably to its benchmark over time, although the fund's one-year cumulative total return was lower than its benchmark. The Board considered that the variations in performance among the fund's classes reflect the variations in class expenses, which result in lower performance for higher expense classes.
Based on its review, and giving particular weight to the nature and quality of the resources dedicated by the Investment Advisers to maintain and improve relative performance, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by Fidelity will benefit the fund's shareholders, particularly in light of the Board's view that the fund's shareholders benefit from investing in a fund that is part of a large family of funds offering a variety of investment disciplines and services.
Competitiveness of Management Fee and Total Fund Expenses. The Board considered the fund's management fee and total expenses compared to "mapped groups" of competitive funds and classes. Fidelity creates "mapped groups" by combining similar Lipper investment objective categories that have comparable management fee characteristics. Combining Lipper investment objective categories aids the Board's management fee and total expense comparisons by broadening the competitive group used for comparison and by reducing the number of universes to which various Fidelity funds are compared.
The Board considered two proprietary management fee comparisons for the 12-month periods shown in the chart below. The group of Lipper funds used by the Board for management fee comparisons is referred to below as the "Total Mapped Group" and, for the reasons explained above, is broader than the Lipper peer group used by the Board for performance comparisons. The Total Mapped Group comparison focuses on a fund's standing relative to the total universe of comparable funds available to investors, in terms of gross management fees before expense reimbursements or caps. "TMG %" represents the percentage of funds in the Total Mapped Group that had management fees that were lower than the fund's. For example, a TMG % of 27% would mean that 73% of the funds in the Total Mapped Group had higher management fees than the fund. The "Asset-Size Peer Group" (ASPG) comparison focuses on a fund's standing relative to non-Fidelity funds similar in size to the fund within the Total Mapped Group. The ASPG represents at least 15% of the funds in the Total Mapped Group with comparable asset size and management fee characteristics, subject to a minimum of 50 funds (or all funds in the Total Mapped Group if fewer than 50). Additional information, such as the ASPG quartile ("quadrant") in which the fund's management fee ranked, is also included in the chart and considered by the Board.
Semiannual Report
The Board noted that the fund's management fee ranked below the median of its Total Mapped Group and below the median of its ASPG for 2004. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the fund's management fee was fair and reasonable in light of the services that the fund receives and the other factors considered.
In its review of each class's total expenses, the Board considered the fund's management fee as well as other fund or class expenses, as applicable, such as transfer agent fees, pricing and bookkeeping fees, fund-paid 12b-1 fees, and custodial, legal, and audit fees. The Board also noted the effects of any waivers and reimbursements on fees and expenses. As part of its review, the Board also considered current and historical total expenses of each class of the fund compared to competitive fund median expenses. Each class of the fund is compared to those funds and classes in the Total Mapped Group (used by the Board for management fee comparisons) that have a similar sales load structure.

The Board noted that the total expenses of each of Class A, Class T, Class B, and Institutional Class ranked below its competitive median for 2004, and the total expenses of Class C ranked above its competitive median for 2004. The Board noted that the fund offers multiple classes, each of which has a different sales load and 12b-1 fee structure, and that the multiple structures are intended to offer a range of pricing options for the intermediary market. The Board also noted that the total expenses of the classes vary primarily by the level of their 12b-1 fees, although differences in transfer agent fees may also cause expenses to vary from class to class.
In its review of total expenses, the Board also considered Fidelity fee structures and other information on clients that FMR and its affiliates service in other competitive markets, such as other mutual funds advised or subadvised by FMR or its affiliates, pension plan clients, and other institutional clients.
Based on its review, the Board concluded that the total expenses for each class of the fund were reasonable, although in one case above the median of the universe presented for comparison, 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 its shareholders. The Board also considered the level of Fidelity's profits in respect of all the Fidelity funds.
On an annual basis, FMR presents to the Board Fidelity's profitability for the fund. Fidelity calculates the profitability for each fund, as well as aggregate profitability for groups of Fidelity funds and all Fidelity funds, using a series of detailed revenue and cost allocation methodologies which originate with the audited books and records of Fidelity. The Audit Committee of the Board reviews any significant changes from the prior year's methodologies.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC), independent registered accounting firm and auditor to Fidelity and certain Fidelity funds, has been engaged annually by the Board as part of the Board's assessment of the results of Fidelity's profitability analysis. PwC's engagement includes the review and assessment of Fidelity's methodologies used in determining the revenues and expenses attributable to Fidelity's mutual fund business, and completion of agreed-upon procedures surrounding the mathematical accuracy of fund profitability and its conformity to allocation methodologies. After considering PwC's reports issued under the engagement and information provided by Fidelity, the Board believes that while other allocation methods may also be reasonable, Fidelity's profitability methodologies are reasonable in all material respects.
Semiannual Report
The Board has also reviewed Fidelity's non-fund businesses and any fall-out benefits related to the mutual fund business as well as cases where Fidelity's affiliates may benefit from or be related to the fund's business. In addition, a special committee of the Board reviewed services provided to Fidelity by its affiliates and determined that the fees that Fidelity paid for such services were reasonable.
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 determined that the amount of profit is a fair entrepreneurial profit for the management of the fund.
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 through increased services to the fund, through waivers or reimbursements, or through fee or expense reductions, including reductions that occur through operation of the transfer agent agreement. The transfer agent fee varies in part based on the number of accounts in the fund. If the number of accounts decreases or the average account size increases, the overall transfer agent fee rate decreases.
The Board recognized that the fund's management contract incorporates a "group fee" structure, which provides for lower fee rates as total fund assets under FMR's management increase, and for higher fee rates as total fund assets under FMR's management decrease. The Board considered that the group fee is designed to deliver the benefits of economies of scale to fund shareholders when total fund assets increase, 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 Fidelity funds, and all funds benefit if those costs can be allocated among more assets. The Board concluded that, given the group fee structure, fund shareholders will achieve a certain level of economies of scale as assets under FMR's management increase at the fund complex level, regardless of whether Fidelity achieves any such economies of scale.
The Board further concluded that any potential economies of scale are being shared between fund shareholders and Fidelity in an appropriate manner.
Additional Information Requested by the Board. In order to develop fully the factual basis for consideration of the Advisory Contracts, the Board requested additional information regarding (i) Fidelity's fund profitability methodology, including additional detail on various cost allocations; (ii) fall-out benefits to Fidelity; and (iii) compensation of portfolio managers and research analysts.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts and
Management Fees - continued
Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all material factors, the Board ultimately concluded that the existing advisory fee structures are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's existing Advisory Contracts should be renewed.
