PRESIDENT’S LETTER IVY FUNDS

	MARCH 31, 2018 (UNAUDITED)
Philip J. Sanders, CFA

Dear Shareholder,

The last six months brought a tale of two markets, initially trending upward, and then disrupted by volatility in the latter part of the period. Overall, growth in global gross domestic product (GDP) reached the fastest rate in six years by the end of 2017, and the global economy entered 2018 with strong momentum, bolstering hopes of continued positive gains in financial markets. A variety of concerns, highlighted by escalating global trade disputes ushered in the volatility. What’s next for investors?

While we remain positive on the economy and do not foresee a recession over the next 12 months, we believe that increased volatility is here to stay. We think markets will continue to grapple with the implications of several factors, including stronger growth, rising inflation and trade frictions.

In the U.S., tax cuts, deregulation and solid economic fundamentals are likely to boost GDP growth this year. See the table for a fiscal a comparison of some common market metrics.

We believe the tax cuts that took effect this year will add a few tenths to the growth rate of an economy that already was improving. We think spending on capital equipment will continue to recover on the back of deregulation and rising business confidence, as well as incentives included in the tax cut package.

GDP growth in the eurozone improved in 2017, and we believe will continue to perform well this year. Employment is recovering and consumer income is beginning to rise in some countries, which is likely to support consumer spending. Emerging market economies continue to benefit from strong growth in developed markets and low interest rates globally. Global monetary policy is likely to continue to move away from the ultra-accommodative stance that central banks adopted in response to the global financial crisis.

Our biggest concern coming into 2018 was related to global trade. Slow progress in renegotiations on the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the U.S. announcement of tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, as well as a range of Chinese goods have sparked fears about potential trade disputes. We believe that policymakers will eventually seek compromises on these issues to avoid disrupting the current economic recovery.

While we remain aware of risks, we believe it is important to stay focused on the fundamentals and merits of individual market sectors, industries and companies when making investment decisions. Those fundamentals historically have tended to outweigh external factors such as government policies and regulations. While those can affect every business and investor, we think the innovation and management skill within individual companies ultimately drive long-term stock prices.

Expanding valuations and corporate earnings growth have been key drivers in the equity markets. We believe continued earnings growth will need to carry more of the burden going forward. We see potential catalysts for growth in several areas and industries and our team continues to seek investment opportunities around the globe.

2018 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 3

ILLUSTRATION OF FUND EXPENSES IVY FUNDS

(UNAUDITED)

Expense Example

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, exchange fees and account fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service fees, and other Fund expenses. The following table is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the six-month period ended March 31, 2018.

Actual Expenses

The first section in the following table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each share class. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, a $7,500 account value divided by $1,000 = 7.5), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. There may be additional fees charged to holders of certain accounts that are not included in the expenses shown in the table. Fees apply to Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), IRA Rollovers, Roth IRAs, Conversion Roth IRAs, Simplified Employee Pension (SEP), Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees (SIMPLE) IRAs, Tax-Sheltered Accounts (TSAs), Keogh Plans, Owner Only 401(k) (Exclusive K) Plans and Final Pay Plans. As of the close of the six months covered by the table, a customer is charged an annual fee of $18 within each plan type. This fee is waived for IRA Rollovers and Conversion Roth IRAs if the customer owns another type of IRA. Coverdell Education Savings Account plans are charged an annual fee of $10 per customer. With limited exceptions, for Class A and Class C shares, if your Fund

account balance is below $650 on the Friday prior to the last full week of September of each year, the account will be assessed an account fee of $20. You should consider the additional fees that were charged to your Fund account over the six-month period when you estimate the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of these fees on your ending account value as such additional expenses are not reflected in the information provided in the following table. Additional fees have the effect of reducing investment returns.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section in the following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses for each share class based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of five percent per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this five percent hypothetical example with the five percent hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), exchange fees or account fees. Therefore, the second section in 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.

Expenses paid may be impacted by expense reduction arrangements. If those arrangements had not been in place, expenses paid would have been higher. See Note 5 to the Financial Statements for further information.

* Fund expenses for each share class are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for each share class (provided in the table), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182 days in the six-month period ended March 31, 2018, and divided by 365.

** These class shares are not available for direct investment. However, they are available for dividend reinvestment and exchange of the same class shares of another Ivy Fund.

*** Actual inception date for this share class is 2-26-18 (the date on which shares were first acquired by shareholders). The calculations are based on 34 days in the period ended March 31, 2018.

(1) This section uses the Fund’s actual total return and actual Fund expenses. It is a guide to the actual expenses paid by the Fund in the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is computed using the Fund’s actual return and the “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. A shareholder may use the information here, together with the dollar amount invested, to estimate the expenses that were paid over the period. For every thousand dollars a shareholder has invested, the expenses are listed in the last column of this section.

(2) This section uses a hypothetical five percent annual return and actual Fund expenses. It helps to compare the Fund’s ongoing costs with other mutual funds. A shareholder can compare the Fund’s ongoing costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

(3) Annualized expense ratio based on the period excluding reorganization expense was 1.00%.

(4) Annualized expense ratio based on the period excluding reorganization expense was 2.13%.

(5) Annualized expense ratio based on the period excluding reorganization expense was 1.88%.

(6) Annualized expense ratio based on the period excluding reorganization expense was 0.84%.

(7) Annualized expense ratio based on the period excluding reorganization expense was 0.72%.

(8) Annualized expense ratio based on the period excluding reorganization expense was 1.00%.

The above illustrations are based on ongoing costs only and do not include any transactional costs, such as sales loads or exchange fees.

Our preference is to always use ratings obtained from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch. It is each Portfolio’s general policy to classify such security at the lower rating level if only two ratings are available. If more than two ratings are available and a median exists, the median is used. If more than two ratings exist without a median, the lower of the two middle ratings is used. We do not evaluate these ratings, but simply assign them to the appropriate credit quality category as determined by the rating agency.

During the period ended March 31, 2018, securities totaling $213 were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2. These transfers were the result of fair value procedures applied to international securities due to significant market movement of the S&P 500 on March 31, 2018. Transfers out of Level 1 represent the values as of the beginning of the reporting period.

The following table is a reconciliation of Level 3 investments for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:

	Common Stocks			Preferred Stocks		Mortgage- Backed Securities			Loans
Beginning Balance 10-1-17	$	—		$	245	$	1,000		$	5,532
Net realized gain (loss)		—	*		—		—			(20	)
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)		78			105		—			76

Sales		—	*		—		—			(1,906	)
Amortization/Accretion of premium/discount		—			—		—			3
Transfers into Level 3 during the period		1			—		—			2,385
Transfers out of Level 3 during the period		—			—		(1,000	)		(2,162	)
Ending Balance 3-31-18	$	87		$	350	$	—		$	9,923
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for all Level 3 investments still held as of 3-31-18	$	78		$	105	$	—		$	65

Transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 occurred primarily due to the lack of observable market data due to decreased market activity or information for these securities. Transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 occurred primarily due to the increased availability of observable market data due to increased market activity or information. As shown above, transfers in and out of Level 3 represent the values as of the beginning of the reporting period. During the period ended March 31, 2018, there were no transfers between Levels 1 and 2.

Our preference is to always use ratings obtained from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch. It is each Portfolio’s general policy to classify such security at the lower rating level if only two ratings are available. If more than two ratings are available and a median exists, the median is used. If more than two ratings exist without a median, the lower of the two middle ratings is used. We do not evaluate these ratings, but simply assign them to the appropriate credit quality category as determined by the rating agency.

+ Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid securities with maturities of less than three months. Cash equivalents may include U.S. Government Treasury bills, bank certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances, corporate commercial paper and other money market instruments.

Our preference is to always use ratings obtained from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch. It is each Portfolio’s general policy to classify such security at the lower rating level if only two ratings are available. If more than two ratings are available and a median exists, the median is used. If more than two ratings exist without a median, the lower of the two middle ratings is used. We do not evaluate these ratings, but simply assign them to the appropriate credit quality category as determined by the rating agency.

+ Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid securities with maturities of less than three months. Cash equivalents may include U.S. Government Treasury bills, bank certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances, corporate commercial paper and other money market instruments.

Our preference is to always use ratings obtained from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch. It is each Portfolio’s general policy to classify such security at the lower rating level if only two ratings are available. If more than two ratings are available and a median exists, the median is used. If more than two ratings exist without a median, the lower of the two middle ratings is used. We do not evaluate these ratings, but simply assign them to the appropriate credit quality category as determined by the rating agency.

Our preference is to always use ratings obtained from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch. It is each Portfolio’s general policy to classify such security at the lower rating level if only two ratings are available. If more than two ratings are available and a median exists, the median is used. If more than two ratings exist without a median, the lower of the two middle ratings is used. We do not evaluate these ratings, but simply assign them to the appropriate credit quality category as determined by the rating agency.

Our preference is to always use ratings obtained from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch. It is each Portfolio’s general policy to classify such security at the lower rating level if only two ratings are available. If more than two ratings are available and a median exists, the median is used. If more than two ratings exist without a median, the lower of the two middle ratings is used. We do not evaluate these ratings, but simply assign them to the appropriate credit quality category as determined by the rating agency.

+ Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid securities with maturities of less than three months. Cash equivalents may include U.S. Government Treasury bills, bank certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances, corporate commercial paper and other money market instruments.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IVY FUNDS

MARCH 31, 2018 (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION

Ivy Funds, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Ivy Apollo Multi-Asset Income Fund, Ivy Apollo Strategic Income Fund, Ivy Bond Fund, Ivy California Municipal High Income Fund, Ivy Cash Management Fund, Ivy Crossover Credit Fund, Ivy Government Securities Fund, Ivy IG International Small Cap Fund, Ivy Pictet Emerging Markets Local Currency Debt Fund, Ivy Pictet Targeted Return Bond Fund and Ivy PineBridge High Yield Fund (each, a “Fund”) are eleven series of the Trust and are the only series of the Trust included in these financial statements. The investment objective(s), policies and risk factors of each Fund are described more fully in the Funds’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”). Each Fund’s investment manager is Ivy Investment Management Company (“IICO” or the “Manager”).

Each Fund offers Class A shares. Certain Funds offer Class B, Class C, Class E, Class I, Class N, Class R and Class Y shares. The Funds’ Class B shares are not available for purchase by new and existing investors. Class B will continue to be available for dividend reinvestment and exchanges from Class B shares of another fund within Ivy Funds. Class A and Class E shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value (“NAV”) plus a front-end sales charge. For Class A shares, a 1% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) is only imposed on shares purchased at NAV for $1 million or more that are subsequently redeemed within 12 months of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold without a front-end sales charge, but may be subject to a CDSC. Class I, Class N, Class R and Class Y shares are sold without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Net investment income, net assets and NAV per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer agent and shareholder servicing fees, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B, C, E, R and Y have a distribution and service plan. Class I and Class N shares are not included in the plan. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares 96 months after the date of purchase. Class C shares will automatically convert to Class A shares 120 months after the date of purchase.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund.

Security Transactions and Related Investment Income. Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and losses are calculated on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes paydown gain (loss) and accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except 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. All or a portion of the distributions received from a real estate investment trust or publicly traded partnership may be designated as a reduction of cost of the related investment or realized gain.

Foreign Currency Translation. Each Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars daily, using foreign exchange rates obtained from an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”). Purchases and sales of investment securities and accruals of income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. For assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, net realized and unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency translation arise from changes in currency exchange rates. Each Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments. Foreign exchange rates are typically valued as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the NYSE is open for trading.

Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

Income Taxes. It is the policy of each Fund to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, each Fund intends to pay distributions as required to avoid imposition of excise tax. Accordingly, no provision has been made for Federal income taxes. The Funds file income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The Funds’ tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years after the filing of the tax returns. Management of the Trust periodically reviews all tax positions to assess whether it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon examination by the relevant tax authority based on the technical merits of each position. As of the date of these financial statements, management believes that no liability for unrecognized tax positions is required.

120 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 2018

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded by each Fund on the business day following record date. Net investment income dividends and capital gains distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). If the total dividends and distributions made in any tax year exceed net investment income and accumulated realized capital gains, a portion of the total distribution may be treated as a return of capital for tax purposes.

Segregation and Collateralization. In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or the interpretive rules and regulations of the U.S. Commodities Futures Trading Commission require that a Fund either deliver collateral or segregate assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., dollar rolls, financial futures contracts, foreign currency exchange contracts, options written, securities with extended settlement periods, and swaps), the Fund will segregate collateral or designate on its books and records, cash or other liquid securities having a value at least equal to the amount that is required to be physically segregated for the benefit of the counterparty. Furthermore, based on requirements and agreements with certain exchanges and third party broker-dealers, each party has requirements to deliver/deposit cash or securities as collateral for certain investments. Certain countries require that cash reserves be held while investing in companies incorporated in that country. These cash reserves and cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Funds under derivative contracts, if any, will be reported separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “Restricted cash”. Securities collateral pledged for the same purpose, if any, is noted on the Schedule of Investments.

Concentration of Market and Credit Risk. In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities and enter into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the issuer of a security to meet all its obligations (issuer credit risk). The value of securities held by the Funds may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Funds; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to issuer credit risk, the Funds may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments. The Funds manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that they believe have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Funds’ exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is generally approximated by their value recorded on the Funds’ Statement of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Funds.

Certain Funds may hold high-yield or non-investment-grade bonds, that may be subject to a greater degree of credit risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest or principal payments or both as they become due. The Funds may acquire securities in default and are not obligated to dispose of securities whose issuers subsequently default.

Certain Funds may enter into financial instrument transactions (such as swaps, futures, options and other derivatives) that may have off-balance sheet market risk. Off-balance sheet market risk exists when the maximum potential loss on a particular financial instrument is greater than the value of such financial instrument, as reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

If a Fund invests directly in foreign currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, foreign currencies, or in financial derivatives that provide exposure to foreign currencies, it will be subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the base currency of the Fund, or, in the case of hedging positions, that the Fund’s base currency will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time for a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, or by the imposition of currency controls or other political developments in the United States or abroad.

Collateralized Loan Obligations. Certain Funds may invest in collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”). CLOs are a type of asset-backed security. A CLO is a trust typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and foreign senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans. The cash flows of a CLO can be split into multiple segments, called “tranches”, which will vary in risk profile and yield. Each tranche is a piece of the CLO, and dictates who will be paid out first when the underlying loan payments are made. It also dictates the risk associated with the investment, since investors who are paid last have a higher risk of default from the underlying loans.

Inflation-Indexed Bonds. Certain Funds may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid

2018 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 121

based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase or decrease in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income on the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.

Interest Only Obligations. These securities entitle the owner to receive only the interest portion from a bond, Treasury note or pool of mortgages. These securities are generally created by a third party separating a bond or pool of mortgages into distinct interest-only and principal-only securities. As the principal (par) amount of a bond or pool of mortgages is paid down, the amount of interest income earned by the owner will decline as well.

Loans. Certain Funds may invest in loans, the interest rates of which float or adjust periodically based upon a specified adjustment schedule, benchmark indicator, or prevailing interest rates, the debtor of which may be a domestic or foreign corporation, partnership or other entity (“Borrower”). Loans generally pay interest at rates which are periodically redetermined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. These base lending rates generally include prime rates of one or more major U.S. banks, the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or certificates of deposit rates. Loans often require prepayments from excess cash flow or permit the Borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which Borrowers repay cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities. Loans are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may contain certain restrictions on resale, and cannot be sold publicly. A Fund’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties.

When a Fund purchases assignments, it acquires all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement of the assigning lender. Assignments may, however, be arranged through private negotiations between potential assignees and potential assignors, and the rights and obligations acquired by the purchaser of an assignment may differ from, and be more limited than those held by the assigning lender. When a Fund purchases a participation of a loan interest, the Fund typically enters into a contractual agreement with the lender or other third party selling the participation. A participation interest in loans includes the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled from the lender and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the Borrower, but not from the Borrower directly. When investing in a participation interest, if a Borrower is unable to meet its obligations under a loan agreement, a Fund generally has no direct right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement. As a result, the Fund assumes the credit risk of the Borrower, the selling participant, and any other persons that are interpositioned between the Fund and the Borrower. If the lead lender in a typical lending syndicate becomes insolvent, enters Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) receivership or, if not FDIC insured, enters into bankruptcy, the Fund may incur certain costs and delays in receiving payment or may suffer a loss of principal and interest.

Payment In-Kind Securities. Certain Funds may invest in payment in-kind securities (“PIKs”). PIKs give the issuer the option at each interest payment date of making interest payments in cash or in additional debt securities. Those additional debt securities usually have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates, and associated risks as the original bonds. The daily market quotations of the original bonds may include the accrued interest (referred to as a dirty price) and require a pro-rata adjustment from the unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments to interest receivable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Securities on a When-Issued or Delayed Delivery Basis. Certain Funds may purchase securities on a “when-issued” basis, and may purchase or sell securities on a “delayed delivery” basis. “When-issued” or “delayed delivery” refers to securities whose terms and indenture are available and for which a market exists, but which are not available for immediate delivery. Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by a Fund on a when-issued basis normally take place within six months and possibly as long as two years or more after the trade date. During this period, such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The purchase of securities on a when-issued basis may increase the volatility of a Fund’s NAV to the extent the Fund executes such transactions while remaining substantially fully invested. When a Fund engages in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions, it relies on the buyer or seller, as the case may be, to complete the transaction. Their failure to do so may cause the Fund to lose the opportunity to obtain or dispose of the security at a price and yield IICO, or the Fund’s investment subadviser, as applicable, consider advantageous. The Fund maintains internally designated assets with a value equal to or greater than the amount of its purchase commitments. The Fund may also sell securities that it purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis prior to settlement of the original purchase.

Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees” on the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by a Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. A Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by that Fund. The “Earnings credit” line item, if shown, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by that Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.

122 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 2018

Indemnification. The Trust’s organizational documents provide current and former Trustees and Officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Trust. In the normal course of business, the Trust may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnification. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown and is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Trust. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Basis of Preparation. Each Fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 (“ASC 946”). The accompanying financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including but not limited to ASC 946. U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates made by management. Management believes that estimates and valuations are appropriate; however, actual results may differ from those estimates, and the valuations reflected in the accompanying financial statements may differ from the value ultimately realized upon sale or maturity.

Subsequent Events. Management has performed a review for subsequent events through the date this report was issued.

3. INVESTMENT VALUATION AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Each Fund’s investments are reported at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that each Fund would receive upon selling an asset or would pay upon satisfying a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Each Fund calculates the NAV of its shares as of the close of the NYSE, normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the NYSE is open for trading.

For purposes of calculating the NAV, the portfolio securities and financial instruments are valued on each business day using pricing and valuation methods as adopted by the Board. Where market quotes are readily available, fair value is generally determined on the basis of the last reported sales price, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services.

Prices for fixed-income securities are typically based on quotes that are obtained from an independent pricing service approved by the Board. To determine values of fixed-income securities, the independent pricing service utilizes such factors as current quotations by broker/dealers, coupon, maturity, quality, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other yield and risk factors it deems relevant in determining valuations. Securities that cannot be valued by the independent pricing service may be valued using quotes obtained from dealers that make markets in the securities.

Investments in Ivy Cash Management Fund are valued on the basis of amortized cost (which approximates value), whereby a portfolio security is valued at its cost initially, and thereafter valued to reflect a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. Short-term securities with maturities of 60 days or less held in all Funds (with the exception of Ivy Cash Management Fund) are valued based on quotes that are obtained from an independent pricing service approved by the Board as described in the preceding paragraph above.

Because many foreign markets close before the NYSE, events may occur between the close of the foreign market and the close of the NYSE that could have a material impact on the valuation of foreign securities. Waddell & Reed Services Company (“WRSCO”), pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board, evaluates the impact of these events and may adjust the valuation of foreign securities to reflect the fair value as of the close of the NYSE. In addition, all securities for which values are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are appraised at fair value as determined in good faith under the supervision of the Board.

Where market quotes are not readily available, portfolio securities or financial instruments are valued at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board or Valuation Committee pursuant to procedures approved by the Board.

Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information or broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the NYSE close, that materially affect the values of a Fund’s securities or financial instruments. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available.

The Board has delegated to WRSCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of a Fund’s securities or financial instruments and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or financial instruments should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. The Board has established a Valuation Committee to administer and oversee the valuation process, including the use of third party pricing vendors.

The Board has adopted methods for valuing securities and financial instruments in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available. For instances in which daily market quotes are not readily available, investments may be valued, pursuant to procedures established by the Board, with reference to other securities or indices. In the event that the security or financial instrument cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods established by the Board, the value of the security or financial instrument will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board.

2018 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 123

When a Fund uses these fair valuation methods applied by WRSCO that use significant unobservable inputs to determine its NAV, securities will be priced by a method that the Board or persons acting at its direction believe accurately reflects fair value and are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. These methods may require subjective determinations about the value of a security. The prices used by a Fund may differ from the value that will ultimately be realized at the time the securities are sold.

WRSCO is responsible for monitoring the implementation of the pricing and valuation policies through a series of activities to provide reasonable comfort of the accuracy of prices including: 1) periodic vendor due diligence meetings to review methodologies, new developments, and process at vendors, 2) daily and monthly multi-source pricing comparisons reviewed and submitted to the Valuation Committee, and 3) daily review of unpriced, stale, and variance reports with exceptions reviewed by management and the Valuation Committee.

Accounting standards establish a framework for measuring fair value and a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

An individual investment’s fair value measurement is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation.

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized as follows:

• Level 1 – Observable input such as quoted prices, available in active markets, for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs.

• Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available, which may include assumptions made by the Board or persons acting at its direction that are used in determining the fair value of investments.

A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows:

Asset-Backed Securities and Mortgage-Backed Securities. The fair value of asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities are estimated using recently executed transactions and based on models that consider the estimated cash flows of each debt tranche of the issuer, establish a benchmark yield, and develop an estimated tranche specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche including, but not limited to, the prepayment speed assumptions and attributes of the collateral. To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, the values would be categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and otherwise they would be categorized as Level 3.

Corporate Bonds. The fair value of corporate bonds, as obtained from an independent pricing service, is estimated using various techniques, which consider recently executed transactions in securities of the issuer or comparable issuers, market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads, fundamental data relating to the issuer, and credit default swap spreads adjusted for any basis difference between cash and derivative instruments. While most corporate bonds are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in instances where lower relative weight is placed on transaction prices, quotations, or similar observable inputs, they are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative Instruments. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued based upon the closing prices of the forward currency rates determined at the close of the NYSE, are provided by an independent pricing service. Swaps derive their value from underlying asset prices, indices, reference rates and other inputs or a combination of these factors. Swaps are valued by an independent pricing service unless the price is unavailable, in which case they are valued at the price provided by a dealer in that security. Futures contracts traded on an exchange are generally valued at the settlement price. Listed options are ordinarily valued at the mean of the last bid and ask price provided by an independent pricing service unless the price is unavailable, in which case they are valued at a quotation obtained from a broker-dealer. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) options are ordinarily valued at the mean of the last bid and ask price provided by an independent pricing service for a comparable listed option unless such a price is unavailable, in which case they are valued at a quotation obtained from a broker-dealer. If no comparable listed option exists from which to obtain a price from an independent pricing service and a quotation cannot be obtained from a broker-dealer, the OTC option will be valued using a model reasonably designed to provide a current market price.

124 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 2018

Listed derivatives that are actively traded are valued based on quoted prices from the exchange and are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. OTC derivative contracts include forward foreign currency contracts, swap agreements, and option contracts related to interest rates, foreign currencies, credit standing of reference entities, equity prices, or commodity prices. Depending on the product and the terms of the transaction, the fair value of the OTC derivative products are modeled taking into account the counterparties’ creditworthiness and using a series of techniques, including simulation models. Many pricing models do not entail material subjectivity because the methodologies employed do not necessitate significant judgments and the pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets, as is the case with interest rate swap and option contracts. OTC derivative products valued using pricing models with significant observable inputs are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Equity Securities. Equity securities traded on U.S. or foreign securities exchanges or included in a national market system are valued at the official closing price at the close of each business day unless otherwise stated below. OTC equity securities and listed securities for which no price is readily available are valued at the average of the last bid and ask prices.

Mutual funds, including investment funds, typically are valued at the NAV reported as of the valuation date.

Securities that are stated at the last reported sales price or closing price on the day of valuation taken from the primary exchange where the security is principally traded and to the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Foreign securities, for which the primary trading market closes at the same time or after the NYSE, are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and categorized in Level 1. Because many foreign securities markets and exchanges close prior to the close of the NYSE, closing prices for foreign securities in those markets or on those exchanges do not reflect the events that occur after that close. Certain foreign securities may be fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intra-day trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as American Depositary Receipts, financial futures, exchange-traded funds, and the movement of certain indices of securities based on a statistical analysis of their historical relationship; such valuations generally are categorized in Level 2.

Preferred stock, repurchase agreements, and other equities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are also generally categorized in Level 2.

Loans. Loans are valued using a price or composite price from one or more brokers or dealers as obtained from an independent pricing service. The fair value of loans is estimated using recently executed transactions, market price quotations, credit/market events, and cross-asset pricing. Inputs are generally observable market inputs obtained from independent sources. Loans are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, unless key inputs are unobservable in which case they would be categorized as Level 3.

Municipal Bonds. Municipal bonds are fair valued based on pricing models used by and obtained from an independent pricing service that take into account, among other factors, information received from market makers and broker-dealers, current trades, bid-wants lists, offerings, market movements, the callability of the bond, state of issuance, benchmark yield curves, and bond insurance. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of municipal bonds would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.

Other Government Securities. Other government securities include emerging market sovereign, quasi-sovereign, corporate and supranational agency and organization debt securities. The fair value of other government securities is estimated using various techniques, which consider recently executed transactions in securities of the issuer or comparable issuers, market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads, fundamental data relating to the issuer, and credit default swap spreads adjusted for any basis difference between cash and derivative instruments. While most other government securities are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in instances where lower relative weight is placed on transaction prices, quotations, or similar observable inputs, they are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Restricted Securities. Restricted securities that are deemed to be Rule 144A securities and illiquid, as well as restricted securities held in non-public entities, are included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy to the extent that significant inputs to valuation are unobservable, because they trade infrequently, if at all and, therefore, the inputs are unobservable. Restricted securities that are valued at a discount to similar publicly traded securities may be categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy to the extent that the discount is considered to be insignificant to the fair value measurement in its entirety; otherwise they may be categorized as Level 3.

U.S. Government and Agency Securities. U.S. government and agency securities are normally valued using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, quoted market prices, and reference data. Accordingly, U.S. government and agency securities are normally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the liquidity and transparency of the market.

2018 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 125

Transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 occurred primarily due to the lack of observable market data due to decreased market activity or information for these securities. Transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 occurred primarily due to the increased availability of observable market data due to increased market activity or information. Transfers between levels represent the values as of the beginning of the reporting period.

For fair valuations using unobservable inputs, U.S. GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to total realized and unrealized gains or losses, purchases and sales, and transfers in or out of the Level 3 category during the period. In accordance with the requirements of U.S. GAAP, a fair value hierarchy and Level 3 reconciliation, if any, have been included in the Notes to the Schedule of Investments for each respective Fund.

Net realized gain (loss) and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation), shown on the reconciliation of Level 3 investments, if applicable, are included on the Statement of Operations in net realized gain (loss) on investments in unaffiliated and/or affiliated securities and in net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in unaffiliated and/or affiliated securities, respectively. Additionally, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for all Level 3 investments still held as of March 31, 2018, if applicable, is included on the Statement of Operations in net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in unaffiliated and/or affiliated securities.

4. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS ($ amounts in thousands unless indicated otherwise)

The following disclosures contain information on why and how the Funds use derivative instruments, the associated risks of investing in derivative instruments, and how derivative instruments affect the Funds’ financial positions and results of operations when presented by primary underlying risk exposure.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. Certain Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts (“forward contracts”) for the purchase or sale of a foreign currency at a negotiated rate at a future date. Forward contracts are reported on a schedule following the Schedule of Investments. Forward contracts will be valued daily based upon the closing prices of the forward currency rates provided by an independent pricing service determined at the close of the NYSE as provided by a bank, dealer or independent pricing service. The resulting unrealized appreciation and depreciation is reported on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable and on the Statement of Operations within the change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation). At contract close, the difference between the original cost of the contract and the value at the close date is recorded as a realized gain (loss) on the Statement of Operations.

Risks to a Fund related to the use of such contracts include both market and credit risk. Market risk is the risk that the value of the forward contract will depreciate due to unfavorable changes in the exchange rates. Credit risk arises from the possibility that the counterparty will default. If the counterparty defaults, a Fund’s maximum loss will consist of the aggregate unrealized gain on appreciated contracts that is not collateralized.

Ivy Apollo Multi-Asset Income Fund, Ivy Apollo Strategic Income Fund, Ivy Pictet Emerging Markets Local Currency Debt Fund and Ivy Pictet Targeted Return Bond Fund enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts as an economic hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio instruments or to obtain exposure to, or hedge exposure away from foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk).

Futures Contracts. Certain Funds may engage in buying and selling futures contracts. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit, in a segregated account, an amount equal to a varying specified percentage of the contract amount. This amount is known as the initial margin. Subsequent payments (variation margins) are made or received by the Fund each day, dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying debt security or index.

Futures contracts are reported on a schedule following the Schedule of Investments. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are identified on the Schedule of Investments. Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts and the receivable and/or payable for the daily mark to market for the variation margin are noted on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is reported on the Statement of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported on the Statement of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.

Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility of loss of securities or cash held as collateral, that there may be an illiquid market where the Fund is unable to close the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of the Fund’s securities.

Ivy Pictet Emerging Markets Local Currency Debt Fund and Ivy Pictet Targeted Return Bond Fund invest in long and/or short positions in futures contracts to gain exposure to, or economically hedge against, changes in interest rates (interest rate risk), changes in the value of equity securities (equity risk) or foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk).

126 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 2018

Option Contracts. Options purchased by a Fund are accounted for in the same manner as portfolio securities. The cost of instruments acquired through the exercise of call options is increased by the premium paid to purchase the call. The proceeds from instruments sold through the exercise of put options are decreased by the premium paid to purchase the put.

When a Fund writes (sells) an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently adjusted to reflect the current value of the option written. When an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or a Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the call option was sold), and the liability related to such option is extinguished. When a written call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying instrument in determining whether a Fund has realized a gain or loss. When a written put is exercised, the cost basis of the instruments purchased by a Fund is reduced by the amount of the premium received.

Investments in options, whether purchased or written, involve certain risks. Writing put options and purchasing call options may increase a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. With written options, there may be times when a Fund will be required to purchase or sell instruments to meet its obligation under the option contract where the required action is not beneficial to the Fund, due to unfavorable movement of the market price of the underlying instrument. Additionally, to the extent a Fund enters into OTC option transactions with counterparties, the Fund will be exposed to the risk that counterparties to these OTC transactions will be unable to meet their obligations under the terms of the transaction.

Ivy Apollo Strategic Income Fund and Ivy Pictet Targeted Return Bond Fund purchase and write call and put options to increase or decrease hedging exposure to underlying instruments (which include credit risk, equity risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, event risk and/or interest rate risk), increase exposure to various equity markets or certain sectors, gain exposure to or facilitate trading in certain securities and/or, in the case of options written, to generate returns from options premiums.

Swap Agreements. Certain Funds may invest in swap agreements. Swap agreements are bilaterally negotiated agreements between a Fund and counterparty to exchange or swap investment cash flows, assets, foreign currencies or market-linked returns at specified, future intervals. Swap agreements may be privately negotiated in the over the counter market (“OTC swaps”) or may be cleared through a third party, known as a central counterparty or derivatives clearing organization (“centrally cleared swaps”).

Swaps are marked to market daily and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Statement of Operations. Daily changes in valuation of centrally cleared swaps, if any, are recorded as variation margin receivable or variation margin payable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Payments received or made by the Fund are recorded as realized gain or loss on the Statement of Operations. Any upfront premiums paid are recorded as assets and any upfront fees received are recorded as liabilities and are shown as swap premiums paid and swap premiums received, respectively, if any, on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and amortized over the term of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination or maturity of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss on the Statement of Operations.

Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, a Fund is required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities. Securities deposited as initial margin, if any, are designated on the Schedule of Investments. Cash deposited as initial margin is identified on the Schedule of Investments and is recorded as restricted cash on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Credit default swap agreements on corporate issuers or credit indices involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a write-down, principal shortfall, interest shortfall or default of the corporate issuer or all or part of the referenced entities comprising the credit index. As a buyer, if an underlying credit event occurs, a Fund will either (i) receive from the seller an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the corporate issuer security or underlying securities comprising the index, or (ii) receive a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the corporate issuer security or underlying securities comprising the index. As a seller (writer), if an underlying credit event occurs, a Fund will either pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the corporate issuer security or underlying securities comprising the index or pay a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the corporate issuer security or underlying securities comprising the index.

Ivy Pictet Emerging Markets Local Currency Debt Fund and Ivy Pictet Targeted Return Bond Fund enter into credit default swaps to protect bonds owned by a Fund against default.

Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating, for another party’s stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating, on the same notional amount for a specified period of time.

2018 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 127

Ivy Pictet Emerging Markets Local Currency Debt Fund and Ivy Pictet Targeted Return Bond Fund enter into interest rate swaps to gain or reduce exposure to interest rates or to manage duration, the yield curve or interest rate risk by economically hedging the value of the fixed rate bonds, which may decrease when interest rates rise (interest rate risk).

Total return swaps involve a commitment to pay or receive periodic interest payments in exchange for a market-linked return based on a security or a basket of securities including a variety of securities or representing a particular index. To the extent the total return of the security, index or other financial measure underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Fund will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty.

Ivy Pictet Targeted Return Bond Fund enters into total return swaps to hedge exposure to a security or market.

The creditworthiness of the counterparty with which a Fund enters into a swap agreement is monitored by IICO. If a firm’s creditworthiness declines, the value of the agreement would likely decline, potentially resulting in losses. If a default occurs by the counterparty to such a transaction, the Fund will have contractual remedies pursuant to the agreement related to the transaction. The maximum loss a Fund may incur consists of the aggregate unrealized gain on appreciated contracts that is not collateralized.

Collateral and rights of offset. A Fund may mitigate credit risk with respect to OTC derivative counterparties through credit support annexes (“CSA”) included with an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreement which is the standard contract governing most derivative transactions between the Fund and each of its counterparties. The CSA allows the Fund and its counterparty to offset certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables against each other with collateral, which is generally held by the Fund’s custodian or broker. The amount of collateral moved to/from applicable counterparties is based upon minimum transfer amounts specified in the CSA. To the extent amounts due to the Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. See Note 2 “Segregation and Collateralization” for additional information with respect to collateral practices.

Offsetting of Assets and Liabilities. The following tables present financial instruments that are either (1) offset or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement as of March 31, 2018:

132 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 2018

Accounting Services Fees. The Trust has an Accounting and Administrative Services Agreement with WRSCO, doing business as WI Services Company (“WISC”), an indirect subsidiary of WDR. Under the agreement, WISC acts as the agent in providing bookkeeping and accounting services and assistance to the Trust, including maintenance of Fund records, pricing of Fund shares and preparation of certain shareholder reports. For these services, each Fund pays WISC a monthly fee of one-twelfth of the annual fee based on the average net asset levels shown in the following table:

(M - Millions)	$0 to $10M		$10 to $25M		$25 to $50M		$50 to $100M		$100 to $200M		$200 to $350M		$350 to $550M		$550 to $750M		$750 to $1,000M		Over $1,000M
Annual Fee Rate	$	0.00	$	11.50	$	23.10	$	35.50	$	48.40	$	63.20	$	82.50	$	96.30	$	121.60	$	148.50

In addition, for each class of shares in excess of one, each Fund pays WISC a monthly per-class fee equal to 2.5% of the monthly accounting services base fee.

Each Fund also pays WISC a monthly administrative fee at the annual rate of 0.01%, or one basis point, for the first $1 billion of net assets with no fee charged for net assets in excess of $1 billion. This fee is voluntarily waived by WISC until a Fund’s net assets are at least $10 million and is included in “Accounting services fee” on the Statement of Operations.

Shareholder Servicing. General. Under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement between the Trust and WISC, with respect to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class E shares, for each shareholder account that was in existence at any time during the prior month, each Fund pays a monthly fee that ranges from $1.5042 to $1.6958 per account; however, WISC has agreed to reduce that fee if the number of total shareholder accounts within the Complex (Waddell & Reed Advisors Funds, InvestEd Portfolios and Ivy Funds) reaches certain levels. For Class R shares, each Fund pays a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.25 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the class for the preceding month. For Class I and Class Y shares, each Fund pays a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.15 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the class for the preceding month. For Class N shares, each Fund pays WISC a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.01 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the class for the preceding month. Each Fund also reimburses WISC for certain out-of-pocket costs for all classes.

Networked accounts. For certain networked accounts (that is, those accounts whose Fund shares are purchased through certain financial intermediaries), WISC has agreed to reduce its per account fees charged to the Funds to $0.50 per month per shareholder account. Additional fees may be paid by the Funds to those intermediaries. The Fund will reimburse WISC for such costs if the annual rate of the third-party per account charges for a Fund are less than or equal to $12.00 per account or an annual fee of 0.14 of 1% that is based on average daily net assets.

Broker accounts. Certain broker-dealers that maintain shareholder accounts with each Fund through an omnibus account provide transfer agent and other shareholder-related services that would otherwise be provided by WISC if the individual accounts that comprise the omnibus account were opened by their beneficial owners directly. Each Fund may pay such broker-dealers a per account fee for each open account within the omnibus account (up to $18.00 per account), or a fixed rate fee (up to an annual fee of 0.20 of 1% that is based on average daily net assets), based on the average daily NAV of the omnibus account (or a combination thereof).

Distribution and Service Plan. Class A and Class E Shares. Under a Distribution and Service Plan adopted by the Trust pursuant to Rule 12b–1 under the 1940 Act (the “Distribution and Service Plan”), each Fund may pay a distribution and/or service fee to Ivy Distributors, Inc. (“IDI”) for Class A and Class E shares in an amount not to exceed 0.25% of the Fund’s average annual net assets. The fee is to be paid to compensate IDI for amounts it expends in connection with the distribution of the Class A and Class E shares and/or provision of personal services to Fund shareholders and/or maintenance of shareholder accounts of that class.

Class B and Class C Shares. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, each Fund may pay IDI a service fee not to exceed 0.25% and a distribution fee not to exceed 0.75% of the Fund’s average annual net assets for Class B and Class C shares to compensate IDI for its services in connection with the distribution of shares of that class and/or provision of personal services to Class B or Class C shareholders and/or maintenance of shareholder accounts of that class.

Class R Shares. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, each Fund may pay IDI a fee of up to 0.50%, on an annual basis, of the average daily net assets of the Fund’s Class R shares to compensate IDI for, either directly or through third parties, distributing the Class R shares of that Fund, providing personal services to Class R shareholders and/or maintaining Class R shareholder accounts.

Class Y Shares. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, each Fund may pay IDI a fee of up to 0.25%, on an annual basis, of the average daily net assets of the Fund’s Class Y shares to compensate IDI for, either directly or through third parties, distributing the Class Y shares of that Fund, providing personal services to Class Y shareholders and/or maintaining Class Y shareholder accounts.

Sales Charges. As principal underwriter for the Trust’s shares, IDI receives sales commissions (which are not an expense of the Trust) for sales of Class A and Class E shares. A CDSC may be assessed against a shareholder’s redemption amount of Class B, Class C or certain Class A and Class E shares and is paid to IDI. During the period ended March 31, 2018, IDI received the following amounts in sales commissions and CDSCs:

Under the Interfund Lending Program, the Funds may lend or borrow money for temporary purposes directly to or from one another (each an “Interfund Loan”), subject to meeting the conditions of the Order.

8. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS (All amounts in thousands)

On October 16, 2017, Ivy Bond Fund acquired all assets and liabilities of Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by the Board of Trustees on May 17, 2017. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two portfolios with comparable investment objectives and strategies. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of shares of Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund, valued at $1,115,300 in total, for shares of the Ivy Bond Fund as follows:

Shares Exchanged

	Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund		Ivy Bond Fund
Class A		69,353		69,353
Class B		230		230
Class C		1,318		1,318
Class Y of Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund into Class I of Ivy Bond Fund		106,398		106,398

The investment portfolio of Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund, with a fair value of $1,095,219 and identified cost of $1,073,734 at October 16, 2017, was the principal asset acquired by Ivy Bond Fund. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Ivy Bond Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of Ivy Bond Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund had net assets of $1,115,300, including $21,485 of net unrealized appreciation in value of investments and $1,638 of accumulated net realized losses on investments, which were combined with those of Ivy Bond Fund. The aggregate net assets of Ivy Bond Fund and Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund immediately before the acquisition were $0 and $1,115,300, respectively. The aggregate net assets of Ivy Bond Fund and Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund immediately following the acquisition were $1,115,300 and $0, respectively.

Assuming the reorganization had been completed on October 1, 2017, the beginning of the semiannual reporting period for Ivy Bond Fund, the pro forma results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2018, were as follows:

Net investment income (loss)	$	12,876
Net realized gain (loss)		(423	)
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)		(31,902	)
Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations	$	(19,449	)

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund that have been included in Ivy Bond Fund’s Statement of Operations since October 16, 2017.

On October 16, 2017, Ivy Government Securities Fund acquired all assets and liabilities of Waddell & Reed Advisors Government Securities Fund pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by the Board of Trustees on May 17, 2017. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two portfolios with comparable investment objectives and strategies. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of shares of Waddell & Reed Advisors Government Securities Fund, valued at $390,980 in total, for shares of the Ivy Government Securities Fund as follows:

The investment portfolio of Waddell & Reed Advisors Government Securities Fund, with a fair value of $386,827 and identified cost of $387,379 at October 16, 2017, was the principal asset acquired by Ivy Government Securities Fund.

with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. Waddell & Reed Advisors Government Securities Fund had net assets of $390,980, including $552 of net unrealized depreciation in value of investments and $4,014 of accumulated net realized losses on investments, which were combined with those of Ivy Government Securities Fund. The aggregate net assets of Ivy Government Securities Fund and Waddell & Reed Advisors Government Securities Fund immediately before the acquisition were $0 and $390,980, respectively. The aggregate net assets of Ivy Government Securities Fund and Waddell & Reed Advisors Government Securities Fund immediately following the acquisition were $390,980 and $0, respectively.

Assuming the reorganization had been completed on October 1, 2017, the beginning of the semiannual reporting period for Ivy Government Securities Fund, the pro forma results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2018, were as follows:

Net investment income (loss)	$	2,792
Net realized gain (loss)		(809	)
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)		(8,304	)
Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations	$	(6,321	)

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of Waddell & Reed Advisors Government Securities Fund that have been included in Ivy Government Securities Fund’s Statement of Operations since October 16, 2017.

On February 26, 2018, Ivy Cash Management Fund acquired all assets and liabilities of Waddell & Reed Advisors Cash Management pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by the Board of Trustees on November 14, 2017.

The investment portfolio of Waddell & Reed Advisors Cash Management, with a fair value of $1,403,454 and identified cost of $1,403,454 at February 26, 2018, was the principal asset acquired by Ivy Cash Management Fund. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Ivy Cash Management Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from Waddell & Reed Advisors Cash Management was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of Ivy Cash Management Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. Waddell & Reed Advisors Cash Management had net assets of $1,393,314, including $55 of accumulated net realized losses on investments, which were combined with those of Ivy Cash Management Fund. The aggregate net assets of Ivy Cash Management Fund and Waddell & Reed Advisors Cash Management immediately before the acquisition were $0 and $1,393,314, respectively. The aggregate net assets of Ivy Cash Management Fund and Waddell & Reed Advisors Cash Management immediately following the acquisition were $1,393,314 and $0, respectively.

Assuming the reorganization had been completed on October 1, 2017, the beginning of the semiannual reporting period for Ivy Cash Management Fund, the pro forma results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2018, were as follows:

Net investment income (loss)	$	4,808
Net realized gain (loss)		15
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)		—
Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations	$	4,823

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of Waddell & Reed Advisors Cash Management that have been included in Ivy Cash Management Fund’s Statement of Operations since February 26, 2018.

(1) Includes short-term capital gains distributed, if any.

Dividends from net investment income and short-term capital gains are treated as ordinary income dividends for federal income tax purposes.

Accumulated capital losses represent net capital loss carryovers as of September 30, 2017 that may be available to offset future realized capital gains and thereby reduce future capital gains distributions. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Modernization Act”), the Fund is permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. Any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to any losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years which have only an eight year carryforward period. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryovers may expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under the previous law. The Fund’s first fiscal year end subject to the Modernization Act was September 30, 2012. The following table shows the expiration dates for capital loss carryovers from pre-enactment taxable years and the amounts of capital loss carryovers, if any, by the Fund electing to be taxed as a regulated investment company during the year ended September 30, 2017:

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS IVY FUNDS

Ivy Bond Fund and Ivy Government Securities Fund

At a meeting of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Ivy Funds (the “Trust”) held on May 15 and 16, 2017, the trustees, including all of the trustees who are not “interested persons” (the “Independent Trustees”), as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), considered and approved an amendment to the Investment Management Agreement (the “Management Agreement”) between Ivy Investment Management Company (“IICO”) and the Trust, on behalf of the Ivy Bond Fund and the Ivy Government Securities Fund (each, a “Fund,” and together, the “Funds”), to include the Funds under the Management Agreement.

The Independent Trustees were assisted in their consideration of the Management Agreement by independent legal counsel, and met with such counsel separately from representatives of IICO. Independent legal counsel had provided the Board with a memorandum that discussed the various factors that the Board should consider as part of its review of the Management Agreement, including, among other things, the nature and the quality of the services proposed to be provided to the Funds by IICO, potential profitability of IICO (including any fall-out benefits) from its proposed relationship with the Funds, projected economies of scale, the role played by the Independent Trustees and information on comparative fees and expenses. The material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Board’s determination to approve the Management Agreement are discussed below.

The Board took into account that it previously had authorized the filing of an amendment to the Trust’s registration statement to commence the Funds in anticipation of serving as shell funds into which the assets and liabilities of the Waddell & Reed Advisors Bond Fund and the Waddell & Reed Advisors Government Securities Funds, respectively, (collectively, the “Existing Funds”) would merge. The Board took into further account that the proposed investment advisory fees, including breakpoints, for the Funds, and their expense structure was proposed to be identical to those of the Existing Funds.

The Board noted that because the Funds are designed to mirror the Existing Funds, they appear to be designed to be able to achieve acceptable performance. The Board also considered the proposed expenses of the Funds, the cost of the services proposed to be provided by IICO, including as compared to the other Funds in the Ivy Funds family, the Existing Funds and comparable funds, and the proposed expense reimbursement agreement, and concluded that the proposed expenses of the Funds were acceptable. The Board, however, did not discuss the projected profitability of IICO in managing the Funds because the Funds had not yet commenced operations, but noted that it would monitor profitability once the Funds begin operations. The Board also considered the nature, extent and quality of services proposed to be provided to the Funds by IICO, taking into account that the investment objective and strategy of the Funds are identical to the Existing Funds, the Board’s experience with the Existing Funds and the management of the Existing Funds by an affiliate of IICO. The Board also considered other services proposed to be provided to the Funds by IICO based upon their current experiences with IICO, such as IICO’s ability to monitor adherence to the Funds’ investment restrictions, producing reports, providing support services for the Board and Board committees on Fund matters, communicating with shareholders and overseeing the activities of other service providers, including monitoring compliance with various policies and procedures and with applicable securities laws and regulations. The Board concluded that the nature and extent of the services proposed to be provided by IICO are reasonable, considering the quality of the services currently provided by IICO for other funds in the Ivy Funds family and by its affiliate to the Existing Funds. The Board also discussed whether IICO would derive any other direct or indirect benefits from serving as investment adviser to the Funds. The Board considered the benefits that would accrue to IICO from its relationship with the Funds, including the fact that a variety of services for the Funds are proposed to be provided by affiliates of IICO, including distribution, shareholder servicing and transfer agency services. After consideration of these and other factors, the Board concluded that neither IICO nor any of its affiliates would receive any additional direct or indirect benefits that would preclude the Board from approving the amendment to the Management Agreement with IICO.

Ivy Cash Management Fund

At a meeting of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Ivy Funds (the “Trust”) held on February 20 and 21, 2018, the trustees, including all of the trustees who are not “interested persons” (the “Independent Trustees”), as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), considered and approved an amendment to the Investment Management Agreement (the “Management Agreement”) between Ivy Investment Management Company (“IICO”) and the Trust, on behalf of the Ivy Cash Management Fund (the “Fund”) to include the Fund under the Management Agreement.

The Independent Trustees were assisted in their consideration of the Management Agreement by independent legal counsel, and met with such counsel separately from representatives of IICO. Independent legal counsel had provided the Board with a memorandum that discussed the various factors that the Board should consider as part of its review of the Management Agreement, including, among other things, the nature and the quality of the services proposed to be provided to the Fund by IICO, potential profitability of IICO (including any fall-out benefits) from its proposed relationship with the

The Board took into further account that the proposed investment advisory fees, including breakpoints, for the Fund, and its expense structure was proposed to be identical to those of the Existing Fund.

The Board noted that because the Fund is designed to mirror the Existing Fund, it appeared to be designed to be able to achieve acceptable performance. The Board also considered the proposed expenses of the Fund, the cost of the services proposed to be provided by IICO, including as compared to the other Funds in the Ivy Funds family, the Existing Fund and comparable funds, and the proposed expense reimbursement agreement, and concluded that the proposed expenses of the Fund were acceptable.

PRESIDENT’S LETTER IVY FUNDS

	MARCH 31, 2018 (UNAUDITED)
Philip J. Sanders, CFA

Dear Shareholder,

The last six months brought a tale of two markets, initially trending upward, and then disrupted by volatility in the latter part of the period. Overall, growth in global gross domestic product (GDP) reached the fastest rate in six years by the end of 2017, and the global economy entered 2018 with strong momentum, bolstering hopes of continued positive gains in financial markets. A variety of concerns, highlighted by escalating global trade disputes ushered in the volatility. What’s next for investors?

While we remain positive on the economy and do not foresee a recession over the next 12 months, we believe that increased volatility is here to stay. We think markets will continue to grapple with the implications of several factors, including stronger growth, rising inflation and trade frictions.

In the U.S., tax cuts, deregulation and solid economic fundamentals are likely to boost GDP growth this year. See the table for a fiscal a comparison of some common market metrics.

We believe the tax cuts that took effect this year will add a few tenths to the growth rate of an economy that already was improving. We think spending on capital equipment will continue to recover on the back of deregulation and rising business confidence, as well as incentives included in the tax cut package.

GDP growth in the eurozone improved in 2017, and we believe will continue to perform well this year. Employment is recovering and consumer income is beginning to rise in some countries, which is likely to support consumer spending. Emerging market economies continue to benefit from strong growth in developed markets and low interest rates globally. Global monetary policy is likely to continue to move away from the ultra-accommodative stance that central banks adopted in response to the global financial crisis.

Our biggest concern coming into 2018 was related to global trade. Slow progress in renegotiations on the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the U.S. announcement of tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, as well as a range of Chinese goods have sparked fears about potential trade disputes. We believe that policymakers will eventually seek compromises on these issues to avoid disrupting the current economic recovery.

While we remain aware of risks, we believe it is important to stay focused on the fundamentals and merits of individual market sectors, industries and companies when making investment decisions. Those fundamentals historically have tended to outweigh external factors such as government policies and regulations. While those can affect every business and investor, we think the innovation and management skill within individual companies ultimately drive long-term stock prices.

Expanding valuations and corporate earnings growth have been key drivers in the equity markets. We believe continued earnings growth will need to carry more of the burden going forward. We see potential catalysts for growth in several areas and industries and our team continues to seek investment opportunities around the globe.

2012 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 3

ILLUSTRATION OF FUND EXPENSES IVY FUNDS

(UNAUDITED)

Expense Example

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, exchange fees and account fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service fees, and other Fund expenses. The following table is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the six-month period ended March 31, 2018.

Actual Expenses

The first section in the following table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses for each share class. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, a $7,500 account value divided by $1,000 = 7.5), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. There may be additional fees charged to holders of certain accounts that are not included in the expenses shown in the table. Fees apply to Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), IRA Rollovers, Roth IRAs, Conversion Roth IRAs, Simplified Employee Pension (SEP), Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees (SIMPLE) IRAs, Tax-Sheltered Accounts (TSAs), Keogh Plans, Owner Only 401(k) (Exclusive K) Plans and Final Pay Plans. As of the close of the six months covered by the table, a customer is charged an annual fee of $18 within each plan type. This fee is waived for IRA Rollovers and Conversion Roth IRAs if the customer owns another type of IRA. Coverdell Education Savings Account plans are charged an annual fee of $10 per customer. With limited exceptions, for Class A and Class C shares, if your Fund

account balance is below $650 on the Friday prior to the last full week of September of each year, the account will be assessed an account fee of $20. You should consider the additional fees that were charged to your Fund account over the six-month period when you estimate the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of these fees on your ending account value as such additional expenses are not reflected in the information provided in the following table. Additional fees have the effect of reducing investment returns.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section in the following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses for each share class based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of five percent per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this five percent hypothetical example with the five percent hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), exchange fees or account fees. Therefore, the second section in 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.

Expenses paid may be impacted by expense reduction arrangements. If those arrangements had not been in place, expenses paid would have been higher. See Note 5 to the Financial Statements for further information.

* Fund expenses for each share class are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for each share class (provided in the table), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182 days in the six-month period ended March 31, 2018, and divided by 365.

(1) This section uses the Fund’s actual total return and actual Fund expenses. It is a guide to the actual expenses paid by the Fund in the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is computed using the Fund’s actual return and the “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. A shareholder may use the information here, together with the dollar amount invested, to estimate the expenses that were paid over the period. For every thousand dollars a shareholder has invested, the expenses are listed in the last column of this section.

(2) This section uses a hypothetical five percent annual return and actual Fund expenses. It helps to compare the Fund’s ongoing costs with other mutual funds. A shareholder can compare the Fund’s ongoing costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

The above illustrations are based on ongoing costs only and do not include any transactional costs, such as sales loads or exchange fees.

It is each Portfolio’s general policy to classify such security at the lower rating level if only two ratings are available. If more than two ratings are available and a median exists, the median is used. If more than two ratings exist without a median, the lower of the two middle ratings is used. We do not evaluate these ratings, but simply assign them to the appropriate credit quality category as determined by the rating agency.

Our preference is to always use ratings obtained from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch. It is each Portfolio’s general policy to classify such security at the lower rating level if only two ratings are available. If more than two ratings are available and a median exists, the median is used. If more than two ratings exist without a median, the lower of the two middle ratings is used. We do not evaluate these ratings, but simply assign them to the appropriate credit quality category as determined by the rating agency.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IVY FUNDS

MARCH 31, 2018 (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION

Ivy Funds, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Ivy ProShares Interest Rate Hedged High Yield Index Fund, Ivy ProShares MSCI ACWI Index Fund, Ivy ProShares Russell 2000 Dividend Growers Index Fund, Ivy ProShares S&P 500 Bond Index Fund and Ivy ProShares S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index Fund (each, a “Fund”) are five series of the Trust and are the only series of the Trust included in these financial statements. The investment objective(s), policies and risk factors of each Fund are described more fully in the Funds’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”). Each Fund’s investment manager is Ivy Investment Management Company (“IICO” or the “Manager”).

Each Fund offers Class A, Class E, Class I, Class N and Class R shares. Class A and Class E shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value (“NAV”) plus a front-end sales charge. For Class A shares, a 1% contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) is only imposed on shares purchased at NAV for $1 million or more that are subsequently redeemed within 12 months of purchase. Class I, Class N and Class R shares are sold without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Net investment income, net assets and NAV per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer agent and shareholder servicing fees, directly attributable to that class. Class A, E and R have a distribution and service plan. Class I shares and Class N shares are not included in the plan.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund.

Security Transactions and Related Investment Income. Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and losses are calculated on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes paydown gain (loss) and accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except 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. All or a portion of the distributions received from a real estate investment trust or publicly traded partnership may be designated as a reduction of cost of the related investment or realized gain.

Foreign Currency Translation. Each Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars daily, using foreign exchange rates obtained from an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”). Purchases and sales of investment securities and accruals of income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. For assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, net realized and unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency translation arise from changes in currency exchange rates. Each Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments. Foreign exchange rates are typically valued as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the NYSE is open for trading.

Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

Income Taxes. It is the policy of each Fund to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, each Fund intends to pay distributions as required to avoid imposition of excise tax. Accordingly, no provision has been made for Federal income taxes. The Funds file income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The Funds’ tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years after the filing of the tax returns. Management of the Trust periodically reviews all tax positions to assess whether it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon examination by the relevant tax authority based on the technical merits of each position. As of the date of these financial statements, management believes that no liability for unrecognized tax positions is required.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded by each Fund on the business day following record date. Net investment income dividends and capital gains distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). If the total dividends and distributions made in any tax year exceed net investment income and accumulated realized capital gains, a portion of the total distribution may be treated as a return of capital for tax purposes.

52 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 2018

Segregation and Collateralization. In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or the interpretive rules and regulations of the U.S. Commodities Futures Trading Commission require that a Fund either deliver collateral or segregate assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., dollar rolls, financial futures contracts, foreign currency exchange contracts, options written, securities with extended settlement periods, and swaps), the Fund will segregate collateral or designate on its books and records, cash or other liquid securities having a value at least equal to the amount that is required to be physically segregated for the benefit of the counterparty. Furthermore, based on requirements and agreements with certain exchanges and third party broker-dealers, each party has requirements to deliver/deposit cash or securities as collateral for certain investments. Certain countries require that cash reserves be held while investing in companies incorporated in that country. These cash reserves and cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Funds under derivative contracts, if any, will be reported separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “Restricted cash”. Securities collateral pledged for the same purpose, if any, is noted on the Schedule of Investments.

Concentration of Market and Credit Risk. In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities and enter into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the issuer of a security to meet all its obligations (issuer credit risk). The value of securities held by the Funds may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Funds; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to issuer credit risk, the Funds may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments. The Funds manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that they believe have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Funds’ exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is generally approximated by their value recorded on the Funds’ Statement of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Funds.

Certain Funds may hold high-yield or non-investment-grade bonds, that may be subject to a greater degree of credit risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest or principal payments or both as they become due. The Funds may acquire securities in default and are not obligated to dispose of securities whose issuers subsequently default.

Certain Funds may enter into financial instrument transactions (such as swaps, futures, options and other derivatives) that may have off-balance sheet market risk. Off-balance sheet market risk exists when the maximum potential loss on a particular financial instrument is greater than the value of such financial instrument, as reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

If a Fund invests directly in foreign currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, foreign currencies, or in financial derivatives that provide exposure to foreign currencies, it will be subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the base currency of the Fund, or, in the case of hedging positions, that the Fund’s base currency will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time for a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, or by the imposition of currency controls or other political developments in the United States or abroad.

Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees” on the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by a Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. A Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by that Fund. The “Earnings credit” line item, if shown, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by that Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.

Indemnification. The Trust’s organizational documents provide current and former Trustees and Officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Trust. In the normal course of business, the Trust may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnification. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown and is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Trust. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Basis of Preparation. Each Fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 (“ASC 946”). The accompanying financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including but not limited to ASC 946. U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates made by management. Management believes that estimates and valuations are appropriate; however, actual results may differ from those estimates, and the valuations reflected in the accompanying financial statements may differ from the value ultimately realized upon sale or maturity.

Subsequent Events. Management has performed a review for subsequent events through the date this report was issued.

3. INVESTMENT VALUATION AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Each Fund’s investments are reported at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that each Fund would receive upon selling an asset or would pay upon satisfying a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Each Fund calculates the NAV of its shares as of the close of the NYSE, normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the NYSE is open for trading.

For purposes of calculating the NAV, the portfolio securities and financial instruments are valued on each business day using pricing and valuation methods as adopted by the Board. Where market quotes are readily available, fair value is generally determined on the basis of the last reported sales price, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services.

Prices for fixed-income securities are typically based on quotes that are obtained from an independent pricing service approved by the Board. To determine values of fixed-income securities, the independent pricing service utilizes such factors as current quotations by broker/dealers, coupon, maturity, quality, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other yield and risk factors it deems relevant in determining valuations. Securities that cannot be valued by the independent pricing service may be valued using quotes obtained from dealers that make markets in the securities.

Short-term securities with maturities of 60 days or less are valued based on quotes that are obtained from an independent pricing service approved by the Board as described in the preceding paragraph above.

Because many foreign markets close before the NYSE, events may occur between the close of the foreign market and the close of the NYSE that could have a material impact on the valuation of foreign securities. Waddell & Reed Services Company (“WRSCO”), pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board, evaluates the impact of these events and may adjust the valuation of foreign securities to reflect the fair value as of the close of the NYSE. In addition, all securities for which values are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are appraised at fair value as determined in good faith under the supervision of the Board.

Where market quotes are not readily available, portfolio securities or financial instruments are valued at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board or Valuation Committee pursuant to procedures approved by the Board.

Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information or broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the NYSE close, that materially affect the values of a Fund’s securities or financial instruments. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available.

The Board has delegated to WRSCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of a Fund’s securities or financial instruments and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or financial instruments should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. The Board has established a Valuation Committee to administer and oversee the valuation process, including the use of third party pricing vendors.

The Board has adopted methods for valuing securities and financial instruments in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available. For instances in which daily market quotes are not readily available, investments may be valued, pursuant to procedures established by the Board, with reference to other securities or indices. In the event that the security or financial instrument cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods established by the Board, the value of the security or financial instrument will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board.

When a Fund uses these fair valuation methods applied by WRSCO that use significant unobservable inputs to determine its NAV, securities will be priced by a method that the Board or persons acting at its direction believe accurately reflects fair value and are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. These methods may require subjective determinations about the value of a security. The prices used by a Fund may differ from the value that will ultimately be realized at the time the securities are sold.

WRSCO is responsible for monitoring the implementation of the pricing and valuation policies through a series of activities to provide reasonable comfort of the accuracy of prices including: 1) periodic vendor due diligence meetings to review methodologies, new developments, and process at vendors, 2) daily and monthly multi-source pricing comparisons reviewed and submitted to the Valuation Committee, and 3) daily review of unpriced, stale, and variance reports with exceptions reviewed by management and the Valuation Committee.

Accounting standards establish a framework for measuring fair value and a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

54 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 2018

Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

An individual investment’s fair value measurement is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation.

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized as follows:

• Level 1 – Observable input such as quoted prices, available in active markets, for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs.

• Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available, which may include assumptions made by the Board or persons acting at its direction that are used in determining the fair value of investments.

A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows:

Corporate Bonds. The fair value of corporate bonds, as obtained from an independent pricing service, is estimated using various techniques, which consider recently executed transactions in securities of the issuer or comparable issuers, market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads, fundamental data relating to the issuer, and credit default swap spreads adjusted for any basis difference between cash and derivative instruments. While most corporate bonds are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in instances where lower relative weight is placed on transaction prices, quotations, or similar observable inputs, they are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative Instruments. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued based upon the closing prices of the forward currency rates determined at the close of the NYSE, are provided by an independent pricing service. Swaps derive their value from underlying asset prices, indices, reference rates and other inputs or a combination of these factors. Swaps are valued by an independent pricing service unless the price is unavailable, in which case they are valued at the price provided by a dealer in that security. Futures contracts traded on an exchange are generally valued at the settlement price. Listed options are ordinarily valued at the mean of the last bid and ask price provided by an independent pricing service unless the price is unavailable, in which case they are valued at a quotation obtained from a broker-dealer. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) options are ordinarily valued at the mean of the last bid and ask price provided by an independent pricing service for a comparable listed option unless such a price is unavailable, in which case they are valued at a quotation obtained from a broker-dealer. If no comparable listed option exists from which to obtain a price from an independent pricing service and a quotation cannot be obtained from a broker-dealer, the OTC option will be valued using a model reasonably designed to provide a current market price.

Listed derivatives that are actively traded are valued based on quoted prices from the exchange and are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. OTC derivative contracts include forward foreign currency contracts, swap agreements, and option contracts related to interest rates, foreign currencies, credit standing of reference entities, equity prices, or commodity prices. Depending on the product and the terms of the transaction, the fair value of the OTC derivative products are modeled taking into account the counterparties’ creditworthiness and using a series of techniques, including simulation models. Many pricing models do not entail material subjectivity because the methodologies employed do not necessitate significant judgments and the pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets, as is the case with interest rate swap and option contracts. OTC derivative products valued using pricing models with significant observable inputs are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Equity Securities. Equity securities traded on U.S. or foreign securities exchanges or included in a national market system are valued at the official closing price at the close of each business day unless otherwise stated below. OTC equity securities and listed securities for which no price is readily available are valued at the average of the last bid and ask prices.

Mutual funds, including investment funds, typically are valued at the NAV reported as of the valuation date.

Securities that are stated at the last reported sales price or closing price on the day of valuation taken from the primary exchange where the security is principally traded and to the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

2018 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 55

Foreign securities, for which the primary trading market closes at the same time or after the NYSE, are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and categorized in Level 1. Because many foreign securities markets and exchanges close prior to the close of the NYSE, closing prices for foreign securities in those markets or on those exchanges do not reflect the events that occur after that close. Certain foreign securities may be fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intra-day trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as American Depositary Receipts, financial futures, exchange-traded funds, and the movement of certain indices of securities based on a statistical analysis of their historical relationship; such valuations generally are categorized in Level 2.

Preferred stock, repurchase agreements, and other equities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are also generally categorized in Level 2.

Overdraft due to custodian. Due to the short-term nature of overdraft due to custodian, the carrying value approximates fair value and the liability is categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Restricted Securities. Restricted securities that are deemed to be Rule 144A securities and illiquid, as well as restricted securities held in non-public entities, are included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy to the extent that significant inputs to valuation are unobservable, because they trade infrequently, if at all and, therefore, the inputs are unobservable. Restricted securities that are valued at a discount to similar publicly traded securities may be categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy to the extent that the discount is considered to be insignificant to the fair value measurement in its entirety; otherwise they may be categorized as Level 3.

U.S. Government and Agency Securities. U.S. government and agency securities are normally valued using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, quoted market prices, and reference data. Accordingly, U.S. government and agency securities are normally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the liquidity and transparency of the market.

Transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 occurred primarily due to the lack of observable market data due to decreased market activity or information for these securities. Transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 occurred primarily due to the increased availability of observable market data due to increased market activity or information. Transfers between levels represent the values as of the beginning of the reporting period.

For fair valuations using unobservable inputs, U.S. GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to total realized and unrealized gains or losses, purchases and sales, and transfers in or out of the Level 3 category during the period. In accordance with the requirements of U.S. GAAP, a fair value hierarchy and Level 3 reconciliation, if any, have been included in the Notes to the Schedule of Investments for each respective Fund.

Net realized gain (loss) and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation), shown on the reconciliation of Level 3 investments, if applicable, are included on the Statement of Operations in net realized gain (loss) on investments in unaffiliated and/or affiliated securities and in net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in unaffiliated and/or affiliated securities, respectively. Additionally, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for all Level 3 investments still held as of March 31, 2018, if applicable, is included on the Statement of Operations in net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in unaffiliated and/or affiliated securities.

4. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS ($ amounts in thousands unless indicated otherwise)

The following disclosures contain information on why and how the Funds use derivative instruments, the associated risks of investing in derivative instruments, and how derivative instruments affect the Funds’ financial positions and results of operations when presented by primary underlying risk exposure.

Futures Contracts. Certain Funds may engage in buying and selling futures contracts. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit, in a segregated account, an amount equal to a varying specified percentage of the contract amount. This amount is known as the initial margin. Subsequent payments (variation margins) are made or received by the Fund each day, dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying debt security or index.

Futures contracts are reported on a schedule following the Schedule of Investments. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are identified on the Schedule of Investments. Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts and the receivable and/or payable for the daily mark to market for the variation margin are noted on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is reported on the Statement of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported on the Statement of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.

Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility of loss of securities or cash held as collateral, that there may be an illiquid market where the Fund is unable to close the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of the Fund’s securities.

56 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 2018

Ivy ProShares Interest Rate Hedged High Yield Index Fund invests in long and/or short positions in futures contracts to gain exposure to, or economically hedge against, changes in interest rates (interest rate risk), changes in the value of equity securities (equity risk) or foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk).

Collateral and rights of offset. A Fund may mitigate credit risk with respect to OTC derivative counterparties through credit support annexes (“CSA”) included with an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreement which is the standard contract governing most derivative transactions between the Fund and each of its counterparties. The CSA allows the Fund and its counterparty to offset certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables against each other with collateral, which is generally held by the Fund’s custodian or broker. The amount of collateral moved to/from applicable counterparties is based upon minimum transfer amounts specified in the CSA. To the extent amounts due to the Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. See Note 2 “Segregation and Collateralization” for additional information with respect to collateral practices.

IICO has entered into a Subadvisory Agreement with the following entity on behalf of the Funds:

Under an agreement between IICO and ProShare Advisors LLC (“ProShare Advisors”), ProShare Advisors serves as subadviser to the Funds. The subadviser makes investment decisions in accordance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions under the supervision of IICO and the oversight of the Board. IICO pays all applicable costs of the subadvisers.

Independent Trustees and Chief Compliance Officer Fees. Fees paid to the Independent Trustees can be paid in cash or deferred to a later date, at the election of the Trustees according to the Deferred Fee Agreement entered into between the Trust and the Trustee(s). Each Fund records its portion of the deferred fees as a liability on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All fees paid in cash plus any appreciation (depreciation) in the underlying deferred plan are shown on the Statement of Operations. Additionally, fees paid to the Chief Compliance Officer of the Funds are shown on the Statement of Operations.

Accounting Services Fees. The Trust has an Accounting and Administrative Services Agreement with WRSCO, doing business as WI Services Company (“WISC”), an indirect subsidiary of WDR. Under the agreement, WISC acts as the agent in providing bookkeeping and accounting services and assistance to the Trust, including maintenance of Fund records, pricing of Fund shares and preparation of certain shareholder reports. For these services, each Fund pays WISC a monthly fee of one-twelfth of the annual fee based on the average net asset levels shown in the following table:

(M - Millions)	$0 to $10M		$10 to $25M		$25 to $50M		$50 to $100M		$100 to $200M		$200 to $350M		$350 to $550M		$550 to $750M		$750 to $1,000M		Over $1,000M
Annual Fee Rate	$	0.00	$	11.50	$	23.10	$	35.50	$	48.40	$	63.20	$	82.50	$	96.30	$	121.60	$	148.50

In addition, for each class of shares in excess of one, each Fund pays WISC a monthly per-class fee equal to 2.5% of the monthly accounting services base fee.

Each Fund also pays WISC a monthly administrative fee at the annual rate of 0.01%, or one basis point, for the first $1 billion of net assets with no fee charged for net assets in excess of $1 billion. This fee is voluntarily waived by WISC until a Fund’s net assets are at least $10 million and is included in “Accounting services fee” on the Statement of Operations.

Shareholder Servicing. General. Under the Shareholder Servicing Agreement between the Trust and WISC, with respect to Class A and Class E shares, for each shareholder account that was in existence at any time during the prior month, each Fund pays a monthly fee that ranges from $1.5042 to $1.6958 per account; however, WISC has agreed to reduce that fee if the number of total shareholder accounts within the Complex (Waddell & Reed Advisors Funds, InvestEd Portfolios and Ivy Funds) reaches certain levels. For Class R shares, each Fund pays a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.25 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the class for the preceding month. For Class I shares, each Fund pays a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.15 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the class for the preceding month. For Class N shares, each Fund pays WISC a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.01 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the class for the preceding month. Each Fund also reimburses WISC for certain out-of-pocket costs for all classes.

Networked accounts. For certain networked accounts (that is, those accounts whose Fund shares are purchased through certain financial intermediaries), WISC has agreed to reduce its per account fees charged to the Funds to $0.50 per month per shareholder account. Additional fees may be paid by the Funds to those intermediaries. The Fund will reimburse WISC for such costs if the annual rate of the third-party per account charges for a Fund are less than or equal to $12.00 per account or an annual fee of 0.14 of 1% that is based on average daily net assets.

Broker accounts. Certain broker-dealers that maintain shareholder accounts with each Fund through an omnibus account provide transfer agent and other shareholder-related services that would otherwise be provided by WISC if the individual

58 SEMIANNUAL REPORT 2018

accounts that comprise the omnibus account were opened by their beneficial owners directly. Each Fund may pay such broker-dealers a per account fee for each open account within the omnibus account (up to $18.00 per account), or a fixed rate fee (up to an annual fee of 0.20 of 1% that is based on average daily net assets), based on the average daily NAV of the omnibus account (or a combination thereof).

Distribution and Service Plan. Class A and Class E Shares. Under a Distribution and Service Plan adopted by the Trust pursuant to Rule 12b–1 under the 1940 Act (the “Distribution and Service Plan”), each Fund may pay a distribution and/or service fee to Ivy Distributors, Inc. (“IDI”) for Class A and Class E shares in an amount not to exceed 0.25% of the Fund’s average annual net assets. The fee is to be paid to compensate IDI for amounts it expends in connection with the distribution of the Class A and Class E shares and/or provision of personal services to Fund shareholders and/or maintenance of shareholder accounts of that class.

Class R Shares. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, each Fund may pay IDI a fee of up to 0.50%, on an annual basis, of the average daily net assets of the Fund’s Class R shares to compensate IDI for, either directly or through third parties, distributing the Class R shares of that Fund, providing personal services to Class R shareholders and/or maintaining Class R shareholder accounts.

Sales Charges. As principal underwriter for the Trust’s shares, IDI receives sales commissions (which are not an expense of the Trust) for sales of Class A and Class E shares. A CDSC may be assessed against a shareholder’s redemption amount of certain Class A and Class E shares and is paid to IDI. During the period ended March 31, 2018, IDI received the following amounts in sales commissions and CDSCs:

	Gross Sales Commissions			CDSC				Commissions Paid(1)

TO ALL TRADITIONAL IRA PLANHOLDERS: IVY FUNDS

As required by law, we are hereby providing notice to you that income tax may be withheld automatically from any distribution or withdrawal from a traditional IRA. A Fund is generally required to withhold taxes unless you make a written election not to have taxes withheld. The election may be made on the distribution/withdrawal form provided by Waddell & Reed, Inc. which can be obtained from your Waddell & Reed representative or by submitting Internal Revenue Service Form W–4P. Once made, an election can be revoked by providing written notice to Waddell & Reed, Inc. If you elect not to have tax withheld you may be required to make payments of estimated tax. Penalties may be imposed by the IRS if withholding and estimated tax payments are not adequate.
