4 Chairman s Letter Dear Shareholder, Over the reporting period, the major Western central banks resorted to an unprecedented commitment to support asset prices and drive down interest rates through various monetary policy measures. As a result, low yields in perceived safe assets 1 (such as U.S. Treasuries and German Bunds) encouraged investors to move further out the risk spectrum. The availability of easy money and asset purchases, derived from central bank quantitative easing policies and near-zero interest rates, helped to inflate most risk assets by encouraging greater risk taking as investors searched for higher returns and yields. Equity indices in the U.S. rallied and reached new highs, while yields on U.S. Treasuries and most developed market sovereign bonds remained low. Signs of an improving U.S. housing market and positive U.S. economic data also contributed to increased investor risk appetite, despite a period marked by ongoing geopolitical uncertainty and growing concerns about global economic growth. In particular, the unresolved banking crisis in Cyprus (and potentially more broadly across peripheral European countries), the continuing social unrest in the Middle East, and the unsettling situation with North Korea kept investors on edge. The Federal Reserve ( Fed ) initiated a third round of quantitative easing, or QE3, expanding the Fed s purchases beyond U.S. Treasuries to Agency mortgage-backed securities. In addition, the Fed announced that it would tie forward policy guidance to unemployment and inflation targets as well as maintain its $85 billion monthly asset purchase program. The U.S. Congress largely averted going over the fiscal cliff at year-end by passing the American Taxpayers Relief Act, but set the stage for potential fiscal uncertainty into 2013 due to its failure to reach a deal on the sequestration. Within Europe, the imperfect rescue of the Cypriot financial system set new precedents on the eurozone s four year old debt crisis, by forcing losses on uninsured Cypriot bank depositors and undermining public confidence in financial institutions. In mid-december 2012, Standard & Poor s upgraded Greece s sovereign debt rating from selective default to B-/B (the highest debt rating Greece has received since June 2011) due to the country s debt buyback (financed by its European partners) and confidence that other eurozone members were committed to keeping Greece within the union. Furthermore, the European Central Bank ( ECB ) and other major European central banks reiterated their commitment to keep interest rates low for as long as necessary to help facilitate implementation of structural economic reforms in the region. Included below are highlights of the financial markets during our twelve-month reporting period: U.S. Treasury yields ended the period lower, with prices on these securities therefore higher. The yield on the benchmark ten-year U.S. Treasury note was 1.85%, or 0.36% lower than on March 31, 2012, but above its record low of 1.39% in July The Fed kept the Federal Funds Rate anchored within a range of zero to 0.25%. The Bank of England held its key lending rate at 0.50% and the ECB maintained its main policy rate at 0.75% during the reporting period, but lowered the rate to 0.50% in early May. The Bank of Japan announced an expanded monetary stimulus policy that includes plans for direct purchases of Japanese government bonds. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index, a widely used index of U.S. investment-grade bonds, returned 3.77% for the reporting period. U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities ( TIPS ) returned 5.68%, as represented by the Barclays U.S. TIPS Index, outperforming nominal U.S. Treasuries. Lower real yields, which declined across the maturity spectrum on the back of continued policy action by the Fed, drove the majority of U.S. TIPS returns. Breakeven inflation levels (or the difference between nominal and real yields and a proxy for inflation expectations) widened as the market priced in higher longer-term inflation given the Fed s expanded scope of accommodative monetary policies. Diversified commodities posted negative returns, as represented by the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index Total Return, which declined 3.03%. 1 All investments contain risk and may lose value. 2 PIMCO ASSET ALLOCATION FUNDS

5 Agency mortgage-backed securities ( MBS ) underperformed like-duration U.S. Treasuries generally due to positive economic data in the U.S. and investor concern that the Fed might curtail its purchases of Agency MBS sooner than anticipated. While the mortgage sector as a whole underperformed, volatility in relative valuations between coupons remained as higher coupons benefited from positive supply technicals (or ongoing demand but no new issuance) and demand for lower duration assets. Non-Agency MBS, however, outperformed U.S. Treasuries amid investor appetite for higher yielding assets, limited new issue supply, and growing optimism regarding the recovery in the U.S. housing market. Commercial MBS ( CMBS ) also outperformed U.S. Treasuries, with lower credit quality securities exhibiting the strongest performance. The investment grade and high yield corporate bond sectors outperformed like-duration U.S. Treasuries, driven by improving U.S. corporate growth prospects and investors search for yield. The financial sector, in particular, outperformed due to generally strong earnings and continued strengthening in corporate balance sheets. Municipal bonds, both tax-exempt and taxable Build America Bonds, posted positive absolute returns as yields moved lower across the municipal yield curve. Select lower quality municipal sectors outperformed higher quality sectors as investors looked for yield by extending out the yield curve and down the credit spectrum. Emerging market ( EM ) fixed income assets outperformed U.S. Treasuries as improved risk sentiment and global central bank quantitative easing policies reduced credit spreads and drove interest rates lower, fueling gains in both external and local EM bonds. U.S. equities, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, returned 13.96% as investors embraced riskier assets in their search for higher returns. Global equities, as represented by the MSCI World Index, returned 11.85% despite concern over the Cypriot banking crisis and potential contagion to other peripheral eurozone countries. Emerging market equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, returned 1.95%, underperforming developed market equities largely due to weaker EM corporate earnings.

6 Important Information About the Funds We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a welldiversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a Fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a Fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the sensitivity of a security s price to changes in interest rates) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The Funds may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: allocation risk, acquired fund risk, Underlying PIMCO Fund risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, high yield risk, distressed company risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, commodity risk, equity risk, mortgage-related and other asset-backed risk, foreign (non-u.s.) investment risk, real estate risk, emerging markets risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk, smaller company risk, management risk, short sale risk, tax risk, subsidiary risk, value investing risk, arbitrage risk and convertible securities risk. A complete description of these and other risks is contained in each Fund s prospectus. The use of derivatives may subject the Funds to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The Funds may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that a fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. Certain derivative transactions may have a leveraging effect on a Fund. For example, a small investment in a derivative instrument may have a significant impact on a Fund s exposure to interest rates, currency exchange rates or other investments. As a result, a relatively small price movement in a derivative instrument may cause an immediate and substantial loss or gain. A Fund may engage in such transactions regardless of whether the Fund owns the asset, instrument or components of the index underlying the derivative instrument. A Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in these types of instruments. If it does, a Fund s investment exposure could far exceed the value of its portfolio securities and its investment performance could be primarily dependent upon securities it does not own. Investing in foreign (non- U.S.) securities may entail risk due to non-u.s. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets. High-yield bonds typically have a lower credit rating than other bonds. Lower-rated bonds generally involve a greater risk to principal than higher-rated bonds. The credit quality of a particular security or group of securities does not ensure the stability or safety of the overall portfolio. Smaller companies may be more volatile than larger companies and may entail more risk. Concentrating investments in individual sectors may add additional risk and volatility compared to a diversified fund. The PIMCO All Asset Fund, PIMCO All Asset All Authority Fund and PIMCO Global Multi-Asset Fund ( PIMCO Fund of Funds ) may invest their respective assets in Underlying PIMCO Funds. The cost of investing in these Funds will generally be higher than the cost of investing in a mutual fund that invests directly in individual stocks and bonds. The PIMCO RealRetirement Funds are intended for investors who prefer to have their asset allocation decisions made by professional money managers and are designed to offer individual investors comprehensive asset allocation strategies tailored to the time when they expect to retire or to begin withdrawing assets. Each PIMCO RealRetirement Fund is designed for investors expecting to retire or to begin withdrawing portions of their investments around the year indicated in the Fund s name. The retirement year included in the PIMCO RealRetirement Fund s name does not necessarily represent the specific year you expect to begin withdrawing your assets. It is intended only as a general guide. The PIMCO RealRetirement Funds are designed to provide investors with a comprehensive retirement solution tailored to the time when they expect to retire and plan to start withdrawing money (the target date ). Each PIMCO RealRetirement Fund follows a target asset allocation schedule that changes over time to help reduce portfolio risk, increasing its exposure to conservative investments as the target date approaches. The principal value of a Fund is not guaranteed at any time, including the target date. A Fund s shareholders may experience losses, including losses near, at, or after the target year indicated in the PIMCO RealRetirement Fund s name. On each individual Fund Summary page in this Annual Report ( Shareholder Report ), the Average Annual Total Return table and Cumulative Returns chart measure performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on (i) Fund distributions or (ii) the redemption of Fund shares. The Cumulative Returns chart and Average Annual Total Return table reflects any sales load that would have applied at the time of purchase or any Contingent Deferred Sales Charge ( CDSC ) that would have applied if a full redemption occurred on the last business day of the period shown in the Cumulative Returns chart. Class A shares are subject to an initial sales charge. Class B shares are subject to a CDSC, which declines from 3.5% (or 5% for certain Funds) in the first year to 0% at 4 PIMCO ASSET ALLOCATION FUNDS

7 the end of the fifth year (or sixth year for certain Funds). As of November 1, 2009, Class B shares of PIMCO Funds are no longer available for purchase, except through exchanges and dividend reinvestments. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC, which may apply in the first year. A CDSC may be imposed in certain circumstances on Class A shares that are purchased without an initial sales charge and then redeemed during the first 18 months after purchase. The Cumulative Returns Chart reflects only Institutional Class performance. Performance for Class P, Administrative Class, Class D, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares is typically lower than Institutional Class performance due to the lower expenses paid by Institutional Class shares. Performance shown is net of fees and expenses. The Fund s total annual operating expense ratios on each individual Fund Summary page are as of the currently effective prospectus, as supplemented to date. The figures in the line graph are calculated at net asset value and assume the investment of $1,000,000 at the end of the month that the Institutional Class of the Fund commenced operations. The minimum initial investment amount for Institutional Class, Class P, or Administrative Class shares is $1,000,000. The minimum initial investment amount for Class A, Class C, and Class D shares is $1,000. There is no minimum initial investment for Class R shares. Each Fund measures its performance against a broad-based securities market index ( benchmark index ) and a Lipper Average, which is calculated by Lipper, Inc. ( Lipper ), a Thomson Reuters company, and represents the total return performance averages of funds that are tracked by Lipper that have the same Fund Classification. Each benchmark index and Lipper Average does not take into account fees, expenses or taxes.
