Investment objective & strategy

As of Aug. 26, 2025 · prospectus

Objective. The Fund seeks current income.

Strategy. The Fund, under normal circumstances, will invest at least 80% of its net assets, (defined as net assets plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in Fidelity mutual funds and Fidelity exchange traded funds (?Fidelity Underlying Funds?). The balance of the Fund?s net assets will be invested in Fidelity Underlying Funds or mutual funds or exchange traded funds (?ETFs?) managed by advisers other than Fidelity (?Other Underlying Funds?), under normal market circumstances. At least 80% of the Fund?s assets (defined as net assets plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) will be invested in Fidelity Underlying Funds and Other Underlying Funds that invest primarily in fixed-income securities, under normal circumstances. Fixed income securities shall consist of … The Fund, under normal circumstances, will invest at least 80% of its net assets, (defined as net assets plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in Fidelity mutual funds and Fidelity exchange traded funds (?Fidelity Underlying Funds?). The balance of the Fund?s net assets will be invested in Fidelity Underlying Funds or mutual funds or exchange traded funds (?ETFs?) managed by advisers other than Fidelity (?Other Underlying Funds?), under normal market circumstances. At least 80% of the Fund?s assets (defined as net assets plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) will be invested in Fidelity Underlying Funds and Other Underlying Funds that invest primarily in fixed-income securities, under normal circumstances. Fixed income securities shall consist of U.S. dollar denominated fixed income securities issued by domestic and foreign corporations and government entities of any investment grade, including high yield bonds (also known as ?junk bonds?), asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities. The Fund defines high-yield fixed income securities as corporate bonds or other bonds or debt instruments that are generally rated lower than Baa3 by Moody?s Investors Service, Inc. (?Moody?s?) or lower than BBB- by Standard and Poor?s Rating Group (?S&P?). The Fund operates as a fund of funds. In selecting Fidelity Underlying Funds and Other Underlying Funds to purchase or sell on behalf of the Fund, Pacific Financial Group, LLC (the ?Adviser?) considers data and analysis regarding a model portfolio of Fidelity Underlying Funds and at times, Other Underlying Funds provided by Fidelity Institutional Wealth Adviser LLC, which uses the brand name of Fidelity Institutional AM . The Adviser is solely responsible for selecting the Fidelity Underlying Funds and Other Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests. No Fidelity entity is an investment adviser or sub-adviser to the Fund. The Fund seeks to outperform its benchmark over a full market cycle. The strategy intends to generate these returns through asset allocation and selection of Underlying Funds, both of which are updated quarterly. Allocation changes are largely driven by updates to each Underlying Fund?s relative attractiveness and risk characteristics. The Fund?s portfolio will aim to maintain duration in line with the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. As of mid-2025, the effective duration of the Index was approximately 6 years. Duration measures the sensitivity of a debt security or portfolio to changes in interest rates for example, a duration of ?three? implies an expected price decrease of roughly 3% with a 1% increase in rates. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in below investment grade securities (?junk bonds?). The Fund invests across fixed income sectors and spans a range of duration and credit qualities. In determining the Fund?s asset allocation, the Adviser considers information provided by Fidelity?s Fixed Income Division, which in turn utilizes alpha forecasts to help identify active and passive Underlying Funds within the fund universe to minimize tracking error and that have higher estimated alpha. ?Tracking error? is defined by the risk of an investment portfolio that is due to active management and indicates how closely a portfolio follows the index to which it is benchmarked. A tracking error of 0 means that the investment portfolio is tracking at 100% to the index which it is benchmarked. The Fund?s benchmark index is the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. ?Alpha? refers to a particular investment?s return relative to the overall market or benchmark index. Although the Fund does not intend to focus its investments in any particular sector, its portfolio may be focused in certain sectors from time to time as a result of its investment process. Further, in managing the Fund?s level of investment risk, the Adviser utilizes RiskPro , a software technology developed by ProTools, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser. Based on proprietary algorithms, RiskPro provides an estimate of the range of gain or loss of a portfolio of securities over a forward-looking rolling twelve-month period. The higher the RiskPro estimate, the greater the level of volatility that the Fund may experience over a twelve-month period. RiskPro?s algorithms take into account, among other factors, the volatility of the portfolio over the prior twelve months; a comparison of the portfolio?s volatility over the prior twelve-month period, to the volatility of the S&P 500 Index; and the long-term volatility of the S&P 500 Index. The Adviser utilizes RiskPro to manage the Fund?s volatility as a whole, and to assess the impact of the Fund?s investment in the Fidelity Underlying Funds or Other Underlying Funds. In some circumstances, the Adviser may use RiskPro to identify specific Fidelity Underlying Funds or Other Underlying Funds in which to invest, on behalf of the Fund. For this Fund, the Adviser?s goal is to limit the Fund?s maximum range of total returns, over a twelve-month period, to a gain or a loss of less than 13%. Depending on market conditions, the Fund?s potential gain or loss, as estimated by RiskPro , may exceed 13% from time to time. The use of RiskPro allows investors to evaluate whether the expected volatility of the Fund, as estimated by RiskPro over a forward-looking rolling twelve-month period, is aligned with the investors? level of comfort with investment risk.
