5 Management s Discussion of Fund Performance U.S. EQUITY MARKET OVERVIEW U.S. stocks generated strong returns for the 12 months ended March 31, 2017 (the reporting period ). The Russell 3000 Index, a broad measure of U.S. equity market performance, returned 18.07% for the reporting period. Stocks were flat to slightly higher for the first seven months of the reporting period as the U.S. economy appeared to lose momentum. The economy was sluggish in the first half of 2016, and although it rebounded in the third quarter of 2016, it slowed again in the final quarter of For all of 2016, the U.S. economy grew by just 2.0%, its slowest calendar-year growth rate since Job growth remained robust as the unemployment rate stayed at or under 5%, and retail sales grew by more than 5% during the reporting period. However, other segments of the economy continued to struggle for example, industrial production remained muted, and business productivity was largely unchanged in Geopolitical conflicts and global unrest contributed to increased stock market volatility during the summer of In particular, equity investors reacted sharply to the affirmative vote on the U.K. Brexit referendum to leave the European Union, terrorist attacks in France, and an attempted coup in Turkey. After a modest overall gain through the first seven months of the reporting period, stocks achieved strong returns following the U.S. presidential election in November The new administration was expected to enact pro-business fiscal policies including lower taxes, decreased regulation, and increased fiscal spending aimed at stimulating economic growth. These expectations drove a strong equity market rally that extended through the end of the reporting period. The market remained on an upward trajectory despite two short-term interest rate increases by the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank (the Fed ) late in the reporting period. Uneven economic data kept the Fed on hold for most of the reporting period, but improving growth in the third quarter of 2016 led the Fed to raise its short-term interest rate target in December The Fed acted again in March 2017, partly in response to the highest year-over-year inflation rate in five years. The two Fed interest rate increases raised the federal funds interest rate target to a range of 0.75%-1.00%. For the reporting period, small-capitalization stocks generated the best returns, outpacing mid- and large-capitalization stocks. Value stocks fared better than growth-oriented stocks across all market capitalizations, although growth stocks outperformed value stocks over the final three months of the reporting period as investors grew more confident about the prospects for a stronger economy. In terms of sector performance, the reporting period had two distinct phases. Initially, defensive sectors of the market such as real estate, utilities, consumer staples, and telecommunication services remained the top performers. These stocks led the market s advance in 2015 and the first half of 2016 as investors flocked to sectors with relatively high dividend yields in a low interest rate environment. However, after the presidential election in November 2016, investors moved into more economically sensitive sectors of the market, including financials, information technology, materials, and industrials. As a result, these sectors were the leading performers for the full reporting period, while the more defensive segments of the market lagged. In particular, real estate was the only sector of the market to decline for the reporting period. M ANAGEMENT S D ISCUSSIONS OF F UND P ERFORMANCE 5

7 Management s Discussion of Fund Performance (Continued) ishares U.S. AEROSPACE & DEFENSE ETF The ishares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. equities in the aerospace and defense sector, as represented by the Dow Jones U.S. Select Aerospace & Defense Index TM (the Index ). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the 12-month reporting period ended March 31, 2017, the total return for the Fund was 28.70%, net of fees, while the total return for the Index was 29.24%. As represented by the Index, U.S. aerospace and defense stocks delivered strong gains for the reporting period, outperforming the broader U.S. equity market. After moving gradually higher for most of the reporting period, the Index soared following Donald Trump s victory in the U.S. presidential election. Due to his campaign pledge to boost defense spending, Trump s win spurred investor optimism about the prospects for the aerospace and defense industry. Stocks in the Index leveled off late in the reporting period as the broader stock market took a breather after the sharp post-election rally. In addition to the election, other factors helping to push the Index higher included increased spending on advanced military weapons to counter terrorist threats in the Middle East, growing international markets for defense equipment, and rising demand for fuel-efficient aircraft. Increased orders for non-defense aircraft also helped aerospace and defense stocks during the reporting period. Looking at industries, aerospace and defense, which constituted more than 95% of the Index on average during the reporting period, contributed the most to the Index s performance. The industrial machinery industry also contributed positively to the Index s results for the reporting period. The small portion of the Index represented by firearms manufacturers, which are categorized in the leisure products industry, detracted from the Index s performance for the reporting period, as did airport services stocks.

Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the 12-month reporting period ended March 31, 2017, the total return for the Fund was 39.27%, net of fees, while the total return for the Index was 39.91%. As represented by the Index, U.S. investment services stocks delivered a strong return for the reporting period, outpacing most other subsectors of the U.S. economy. Investment banks and brokerage companies, the largest weight in the Index at an average of 71%, were the most significant contributors to performance during the reporting period. The rise in stock prices of investment banks and brokerage companies was largely driven by increasing revenues from trading activity. Trading volumes surged late in the reporting period following the U.S. presidential election, rising on expectations that the new administration s proposed regulatory and corporate tax reforms would be beneficial to the investment services industry. Debt and equity underwriting activity increased during the reporting period on record-setting levels of initial public offerings ( IPOs ), new debt issuance, and merger and acquisition ( M&A ) activity. Global IPOs in the first quarter of 2017 were off to a brisk start. New debt issuance also began 2017 at a record pace. Global M&A reached a six-year high at the end of January 2017 as M&A activity worldwide totaled approximately $258 billion, up 38% from January Financial exchanges and data companies, which accounted for 19% of the Index on average during the reporting period, also made a solid contribution to the Index s performance. This segment, which is comprised of the major U.S. securities exchanges, benefited from rising trading volumes and revenues, which increased during the reporting period as optimistic investors drove the major equity indexes to record high levels.

11 Management s Discussion of Fund Performance (Continued) ishares U.S. HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS ETF The ishares U.S. Healthcare Providers ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. equities in the healthcare providers sector, as represented by the Dow Jones U.S. Select Health Care Providers Index TM (the Index ). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the 12-month reporting period ended March 31, 2017, the total return for the Fund was 10.23%, net of fees, while the total return for the Index was 10.64%. As represented by the Index, U.S. healthcare providers posted positive results during the reporting period but underperformed the broad U.S. equity market. The overall healthcare sector posted gains during the reporting period, reflecting solid earnings and optimism for growth. Managed healthcare stocks, which represented more than 45% of the Index on average during the reporting period, generated strong performance overall. Several U.S. managed healthcare providers enjoyed improved financial performance during the reporting period. The healthcare services segment also contributed to the Index s performance during the reporting period as several companies generated higher revenues. Healthcare facilities companies faced significant challenges and fell in value, which detracted from the Index s results during the reporting period. Hospitals struggled amid uncertainty about potential healthcare reform, including repealing or replacing the Affordable Care Act. Over the past several years, revenues for hospitals have generally declined, partly due to the Affordable Care Act s expansion of Medicare, which offers significantly lower reimbursement rates than private insurance. Higher costs and declining revenues have forced many hospitals to reduce operations or close, leading to a decline in the number of registered hospitals in the U.S. over the past 20 years, despite a higher population. The number of hospital beds in the U.S. has also fallen over the past several years. Additionally, costs for hospitals have continued to rise, and higher interest rates threaten to increase their debt burdens.

13 Management s Discussion of Fund Performance (Continued) ishares U.S. HOME CONSTRUCTION ETF The ishares U.S. Home Construction ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. equities in the home construction sector, as represented by the Dow Jones U.S. Select Home Construction Index TM (the Index ). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the 12-month reporting period ended March 31, 2017, the total return for the Fund was 18.50%, net of fees, while the total return for the Index was 19.02%. The Index generated strong returns for the reporting period and outperformed the broad U.S. equity market. Home construction stocks benefited from continued strength in the U.S. housing market during the reporting period as mortgage interest rates generally remained near historically low levels. New home sales increased by nearly 12% in 2016, the most since the peak of the last housing boom in Residential building permits and housing starts rose by 1% and 6%, respectively, reaching their highest levels since New home sales and construction continued to expand at a healthy pace in early The homebuilding industry, which made up more than 64% of the Index on average during the reporting period, contributed the most to the Index s performance. The bulk of the rally in homebuilding stocks occurred in early 2017 as monthly homebuilder sentiment reached its highest level in 12 years. Homebuilders expressed increased confidence in the wake of beneficial regulatory reform from the new U.S. presidential administration. Homebuilding stocks rallied despite a number of challenges, including rising materials costs, a shortage of properties available for development, and a continued labor shortage. Building products companies, the second-largest industry weight in the Index, also posted healthy gains during the reporting period, benefiting from the growth in new home construction. Home furnishing manufacturers also benefited from a rise in new home sales, while a steady increase in remodeling and upgrading existing homes provided a boost to home improvement retailers.

15 Management s Discussion of Fund Performance (Continued) ishares U.S. INSURANCE ETF The ishares U.S. Insurance ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. equities in the insurance sector, as represented by the Dow Jones U.S. Select Insurance Index TM (the Index ). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the 12-month reporting period ended March 31, 2017, the total return for the Fund was 23.25%, net of fees, while the total return for the Index was 23.83%. As represented by the Index, U.S. insurance-related stocks posted a strong advance for the reporting period, outperforming the broader domestic equity market. Insurance-related stocks performed well in large part because the Fed made two increases to short-term interest rates during the reporting period, and rising interest rates tend to help insurers generate higher investment income. Insurance-related stocks also appreciated in anticipation of the deregulatory policy proposals of a new administration in Washington, D.C. Life and health insurers, which accounted for 31% of the Index on average during the reporting period, were the largest contributors to performance. Life insurance stocks performed well in the wake of the U.S. presidential election in late 2016, which generated optimism about the incoming administration s pro-business and pro-growth policy proposals. Similarly, health insurance stocks trended upward late in the reporting period in anticipation of the repeal of the Affordable Care Act, but fell back after Congress failed to introduce a replacement bill. Property and casualty insurers, the largest weight in the Index on average during the reporting period, also delivered solid performance as rising interest rates were seen as improving the industry s growth prospects. Multi-line insurers achieved positive but more muted results during the reporting period.

17 Management s Discussion of Fund Performance (Continued) ishares U.S. MEDICAL DEVICES ETF The ishares U.S. Medical Devices ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. equities in the medical devices sector, as represented by the Dow Jones U.S. Select Medical Equipment Index TM (the Index ). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the 12-month reporting period ended March 31, 2017, the total return for the Fund was 24.36%, net of fees, while the total return for the Index was 24.89%. As represented by the Index, U.S. medical devices stocks produced positive results during the reporting period, significantly outpacing the broader equity market and the overall healthcare sector. The U.S. medical devices industry benefited from an aging population, increased demand, and a number of ongoing acquisitions in the industry. U.S. medical devices stocks endured significant volatility during the reporting period, rising early in the period and then retreating in the months leading up to the U.S. presidential election in November 2016 as investors grew concerned about potential new regulations. Following the election, the Index rallied amid investor optimism that the new administration would not pursue significant regulatory changes. The rally was short-lived, however, as uncertainty surrounding the Affordable Care Act put downward pressure on the entire healthcare sector, including medical devices stocks. Through the first three months of 2017, however, medical devices stocks generally rebounded as new products, favorable financial results, and continued strong performance from existing products supported the sector.

The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the 12-month reporting period ended March 31, 2017, the total return for the Fund was 18.88%, net of fees, while the total return for the Index was 19.52%. As represented by the Index, oil and gas exploration and production stocks performed well, benefiting from a rebound in energy commodity prices during the reporting period. After falling from a price above $100 per barrel in mid-2014 to below $27 per barrel in February, 2016, oil prices recovered steadily over the course of the reporting period, finishing above $50 per barrel. Similarly, natural gas prices fell to a 17-year low in March 2016, and then rallied through the end of 2016, before giving back some of those gains in early Better supply and demand dynamics drove the improvement in markets for crude oil, natural gas, and related commodities, including stable to improving growth in China, Europe, and Japan. Energy consumption rose during 2016 in the United States, the largest energy consumer in the world after China, while production fell for the first time in six years. Many small independent North American energy producers filed for bankruptcy in 2016, further constraining supply, while the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and Russia announced coordinated production cuts. Higher prices contribute to greater revenues and profits for energy producers, which enables them to finance their investment in plants, equipment, and exploration. Leading U.S. exploration and production companies announced a surge in capital expenditures and planned production increases for However, the comparatively low energy prices of recent years have resulted in a change in investment priorities, with companies emphasizing high-quality assets they believe can succeed even in challenging market conditions.

The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the 12-month reporting period ended March 31, 2017, the total return for the Fund was 11.19%, net of fees, while the total return for the Index was 11.56%. As represented by the Index, U.S. pharmaceuticals stocks posted positive results during the reporting period but underperformed the broad U.S. stock market. In 2016, the healthcare sector faced increased scrutiny over rising drug prices, leading to bouts of volatility for U.S. pharmaceuticals stocks. The Index rose early in the reporting period and then retreated in the months leading up to the U.S. presidential election in November Following the election, U.S. pharmaceuticals stocks rallied amid investor optimism that the new administration would not pursue significant regulation. The rally was short-lived, however, as continued questions about drug prices, fewer drug approvals, and several prominent drug study failures put downward pressure on the pharmaceutical industry. Other factors that weighed on the industry included a more competitive environment and slower-than-expected rollouts of new products. Through the first three months of 2017, U.S. pharmaceuticals stocks generally rebounded as the sector showed signs of recovery. New products, favorable financial results, and continued strong performance from existing products supported the industry. Recent drug approvals and investor optimism about potential tax reform and cash repatriation also helped push pharmaceuticals stocks higher. In addition, many observers expect merger and acquisition activity to accelerate in 2017, particularly if tax reform and cash repatriation efforts by the new administration succeed. In contrast, ongoing challenges include concerns about drug pricing, which are likely to persist in ALLOCATION BY SECTOR As of 3/31/17 Percentage of Sector Total Investments* Pharmaceuticals 89.53% Biotechnology TOTAL % TEN LARGEST FUND HOLDINGS As of 3/31/17 Percentage of Security Total Investments* Johnson & Johnson 9.99% Pfizer Inc Merck & Co.

The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. For the 12-month reporting period ended March 31, 2017, the total return for the Fund was 5.03%, net of fees, while the total return for the Index was 5.58%. As represented by the Index, U.S. real estate investment trusts ( REITs ) advanced for the reporting period but trailed the performance of the broad U.S. equity market. Publicly traded real estate stocks often fluctuate in response to changes in interest rates, which affect both their borrowing costs and the attractiveness of their dividend yields. The Index rallied early in the reporting period as the Fed held short-term interest rates steady. However, the Index reversed course in the second half of 2016, declining amid investor concerns about rising interest rates. Most notably, the Fed raised its short-term interest rate target in December, and the newly elected presidential administration was expected to implement progrowth fiscal policies that could lead to higher interest rates. Despite these concerns, the Index rebounded in early 2017 thanks to improving earnings for many REITs and increased optimism about the U.S. economy. From a sector perspective, specialized REITs the largest industry weight in the Index contributed the most to performance for the reporting period. This industry covers a wide variety of REITs, but the most significant contributors to the Index s performance within the industry were wireless tower REITs and data center REITs. Mortgage and office REITs were also leading contributors to performance during the reporting period. The only portion of the Index to decline for the reporting period was retail REITs, which faced a challenging market environment as increasing e-commerce sales led to store closures among a number of brick-and-mortar retailers.
