HIGHLIGHTS Before moderating somewhat by the end of the reporting period, Treasury yields spiked dramatically higher in late 2016 as investors priced in an aggressive policy agenda following Donald Trump s victory in the November 2016 U.S. presidential election. The Short-Term Bond Fund outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays 1 3 Year U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index but underperformed its Lipper peer group average during the 12-month reporting period. We increased our exposure to corporate bonds and asset-backed securities during the 12-month period and reduced exposure to mortgage-backed securities. The failure of the Republican-led effort to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, along with tax reform and infrastructure spending legislation delays, has left us with a significant degree of uncertainty about the direction of the U.S. economy and various sectors of the market.

Manager s Letter Fellow Shareholders Before moderating somewhat by the end of the reporting period, Treasury yields spiked dramatically in late 2016 as investors priced in an aggressive policy agenda following Donald Trump s victory in the November 2016 U.S. presidential election. Since the election, we have increased exposure to riskier market segments given the possibility that economic growth may get a boost from increased spending and deregulation. Our security selection helped your fund outperform its benchmark. PERFORMANCE Your fund returned 1.44% during the 12 months ended May 31, 2017, outperforming its benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays 1 3 Performance Comparison Total Return Periods Ended 5/31/17 6 Months 12 Months Short-Term Bond Fund 0.85% 1.44% Short-Term Bond Fund Advisor Class 0.91 1.12 Short-Term Bond Fund I Class 1.11 1.75 Bloomberg Barclays 1 3 Year U.S. Government/ Credit Bond Index 0.82 0.99 Lipper Short Investment Grade Debt Funds Average 1.32 2.02 Year U.S. Government/ Credit Bond Index, which returned 0.99%. However, the fund underperformed the Lipper Short Investment Grade Debt Funds Average of 2.02% for the same period. The fund s net asset value ended the reporting period at $4.72, down from $4.73 at the end of May 2016. Dividends contributed $0.08 per share during the 12-month period. (Performance for the Advisor Class and I Class will vary, reflecting their different fee structures.) The fund s investment objective is to provide greater income than a money market fund but with a higher degree of principal risk. 1

What Rising Rates Mean for Bonds With the Federal Reserve expected to continue its measured approach to interest rate hikes, yields on U.S. Treasuries and other fixed income securities have slowly increased from the low levels of the recent past. We expect the Fed to pause after each increase in the federal funds rate and to carefully analyze incoming U.S. economic data to be sure that economic activity is strong enough to withstand further incremental moves toward normalization of monetary policy. The Fed s more gradual approach to interest rate increases than in previous cycles nonetheless brings the risk of rising rates to the forefront for bond investors. Higher interest rates weigh on the prices of most types of bonds. Importantly, investors also need to understand that not all bonds or bond funds respond uniformly in such an environment. In particular, the duration of a bond or bond fund, which is tied in part to its maturity, provides important information about how the asset will perform when rates change. Also, some bond sectors and bonds of varying quality are better insulated from rate changes and may even perform well as rates rise. A bond fund s duration (shown in the Portfolio Characteristics exhibit) is the most precise indicator of how the fund will respond to rising rates. If a bond fund has a duration of 5.3 years, for example, the fund s net asset value (NAV) would be expected to fall about 5.3% for every one-percentage-point rise in rates. Even this is only part of the picture, however rising rates will also generally mean higher dividends per share as the fund invests in new, higher-yielding bonds. As a result, the fund s total return (change in NAV plus dividend income) is unlikely to fall as steeply as the duration indicates. Generally, bond funds with a shorter weighted average maturity in other words, those with holdings that come due sooner have lower durations and should fare better than funds with longer average maturities when rates rise. This is because investors in the bonds will not be locked into lower yields, or coupon payments, for long. When the fund receives principal payments from maturing bonds, it can reinvest them at a higher yield. Indeed, for investors in a bond fund with a low duration and a low weighted average maturity, higher rates can mean an increase in income potential. Some fixed income sectors offer an added degree of protection from rising rates. Floating rate funds invest in bank loans where the interest rate on the loan is periodically reset, meaning that investors face very little interest rate risk. However, the bank loans usually have a credit profile that is below investment quality, which means these investments may have greater exposure to default risk than investment-grade bonds. Mortgage-backed securities typically fare better than other bonds of similar maturity when rates rise modestly, as fewer homeowners will refinance and pay off their loans early. In addition, lower-quality bonds with a price that is highly sensitive to the issuer s credit rating (shown in the Quality Diversification exhibit) may perform better as rates increase. Rising rates often accompany a strengthening economy, which can lead to credit upgrades for lower-rated issuers. Also, the higher yields offered by lower-quality bonds provide an additional cushion to total return if bond prices fall as interest rates increase. However, lower-quality bonds are generally exposed to greater credit risk than other bonds because the securities carry a higher risk of default. 2

2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 0.0 ECONOMY AND INTEREST RATES After growing 1.6% in 2016, U.S. gross domestic product growth slowed to a 1.2% annual pace in the first three months of 2017, according to the Commerce Department s second estimate. While first-quarter growth was weak, the underlying trend of moderate U.S. economic expansion seems to remain in place. The pace of employment growth has moderated compared with the last few years as the unemployment rate has declined, but the labor market remains strong and wage growth has picked up. Inflation is higher than 12 months ago, but any further increases are likely to be gradual as energy prices have leveled off. Citing an improving labor market and rising inflation, the Fed raised interest rates by 25 basis points in December 2016 and March 2017. (A basis point is 0.01 percentage point.) After the pair of hikes, the range for the fed funds target rate was 0.75% to 1.00%. (The Fed also raised rates in June, shortly after the end of the reporting period.) Treasury yields rose over the 12-month reporting period as the market anticipated the Fed s moves. While U.S. Treasury yields fell to near record lows in July, they climbed higher through the end of the year amid expectations of accelerating inflation and economic growth stemming from Donald Trump s campaign proposals to cut taxes and increase infrastructure spending. The yield on the two-year Treasury note began the fiscal year at 0.87% and finished at 1.28%, whereas the yield on the five-year Treasury note began at 1.37% and ended at 1.75%. (Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.) Interest Rate Levels 4.0% 2-Year Treasury Note 5-Year Treasury Note 3.5 3.0 2.5 5/31/16 8/16 11/16 2/17 5/31/17 Source: Federal Reserve Board. Companies, looking to take advantage of historically low rates, issued investment-grade debt at a record pace. However, technical conditions remained healthy, with strong demand, especially from foreign buyers, absorbing the supply. Corporate bonds outpaced U.S. Treasuries of similar maturities as corporate spreads measured by 3

the Bloomberg Barclays 1 3 Year U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index compressed, ending the period at 0.18 percentage points from 0.26 percentage points at the beginning of the period. Asset-backed securities (ABS) and mortgage-backed securities (MBS) gained modestly amid the increase in Treasury yields. While ABS were supported by strong consumer fundamentals, uncertainty about the Fed s plans for winding down its holdings of MBS weighed on that market. PORTFOLIO REVIEW Portfolio Characteristics Periods Ended 11/30/16 5/31/17 Short-Term Bond Fund Share Price $4.72 $4.72 Dividends Per Share For 6 Months 0.04 0.04 For 12 Months 0.07 0.08 SEC Yield (30-day) 1.30% 1.55% Short-Term Bond Fund Advisor Class Share Price $4.71 $4.72 Dividends Per Share For 6 Months 0.03 0.03 For 12 Months 0.06 0.06 SEC Yield (30-day) 1.03% 1.23% Short-Term Bond Fund I Class Share Price $4.72 $4.73 Dividends Per Share For 6 Months 0.04 0.04 For 12 Months 0.08 SEC Yield (30-day) 1.39% 1.65% Weighted Average Maturity (years) 2.1 1.9 Weighted Average Effective Duration (years) 1.9 1.8 12-month dividends may not equal the combined 6-month figures due to rounding. We saw continued high demand for corporate bonds from yield-hungry investors as well as an increased level of risk tolerance in the wake of the U.S. elections and the rapid increase in yields. Our strategic underweight to U.S. Treasuries and corresponding overweight to investmentgrade corporate debt benefited results in this environment. Typically, we underweight loweryielding Treasury securities and overweight investment-grade corporates for their incremental yield advantage. We have also added out-ofbenchmark exposure in the securitized sector, which benefited from the strength in the consumer and housing markets during the period. 4

Credit Ratings in a Nutshell Credit rating agencies assign letter ratings to bonds after analyzing the issuer s financial situation, although some issuers choose not to be rated. The chart below shows the range of ratings used by Moody s Investors Service, Standard & Poor s, and Fitch Ratings. Bonds within the four highest rating categories are considered to be investment grade; those with lower ratings are considered noninvestment grade and are often called high yield or junk bonds. There are also intermediate gradations called split ratings; these occur when two of the rating agencies do not agree on a rating. For example, one agency may rate a bond BB and another B, creating a BB/B split rating. Moody s and Standard & Poor s/fitch Rating Codes Investment-Grade Bonds Moody s S&P/Fitch Meaning Aaa AAA Highest-quality bonds. Issuers are considered extremely stable and dependable. Aa AA High-quality bonds. The long-term investment risk is slightly higher than on AAA bonds. A A Bonds with many favorable attributes. Baa BBB Medium-grade bonds. Quality is adequate at present but less certain for the long term. Noninvestment-Grade Bonds Ba BB Bonds with a speculative element. B B Security of payments is not well safeguarded. Caa CCC Ca CC Bonds are extremely speculative. The danger of a default is high. C C D In default. 5

Our exposure to securities with a yield advantage over Treasuries is at an all-time high, with corporate debt composing 52% of the portfolio and securitized debt accounting for 38%. To take advantage of the growing risk tolerance over the period, we increased our exposure to short-duration BBB rated corporate debt. This combination of lower-quality but shorter-duration debt enabled us to earn a higher yield but gave us needed protection to withstand any new rounds of risk-related selling. We also found good opportunities in high-quality short-duration paper, including Yankee (U.S. dollar-denominated) bonds in China. We were able to leverage the insights of our Asiabased analysts and added to our holdings in Zheijang Provincial Energy, an electric power company; China Shenua Overseas Capital Company, the finance arm of Shenua Energy, the world s largest coal miner; and China Vanke, Security Diversification Commercial Mortgage- Backed Securities 6% U.S. Treasury Bonds and Notes 8% Mortgage- Backed Securities 10% Based on net assets as of 5/31/17.

(Please refer to the portfolio of investments for a complete list of holdings and the amount each represents in the portfolio.) At the end of May, as noted above, corporate bonds and notes accounted for 52% of the portfolio s assets, followed by ABS and MBS at 22% and 10%, respectively. Commercial mortgage-backed securities, government-related securities, and U.S. Treasury bonds and notes composed the remaining 16%. The portfolio has 95% of net assets invested in securities rated BBB or higher, including those guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury and various U.S. government agencies. 6

Therefore, this category may include rated and unrated securities. Our yield curve positioning detracted from results. The portfolio ended the period with a duration of 1.8 years, shorter than the benchmark s 1.95-year duration. We expect this defensive duration stance to benefit the portfolio in a rising rate environment. While we are primarily a cash bond manager, we occasionally employ the limited use of derivatives in our strategy for hedging purposes. Derivatives may include futures, options, and interestonly mortgages, as well as credit-default and interest-rates swaps. **U.S. Treasury securities are issued by the U.S. Treasury and are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.

While the backdrop for U.S. corporate credit remains constructive buoyed by decent earnings and expectations of economic growth the lack of clarity and proposed policy changes have left investors with a significant 7

degree of uncertainty about the direction of the U.S. economy and various sectors of the market. We will watch for signs of economic growth and credit expansion as well as potential risk-off events. As always, we strive to find value and seek out securities offering reasonable yields without taking on an inordinate level of risk. We remain committed to a risk-conscious, fundamentally based investment approach and long-term perspective. Thank you for investing with T. Rowe Price.

Risks of Fixed Income Investing Bonds are subject to interest rate risk (the decline in bond prices that usually accompanies a rise in interest rates) and credit risk (the chance that any fund holding could have its credit rating downgraded or that a bond issuer will default by failing to make timely payments of interest or principal), potentially reducing the fund s income level and share price. Mortgage-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk, particularly if falling rates lead to heavy refinancing activity, and extension risk, which is an increase in interest rates that causes a fund s average maturity to lengthen unexpectedly due to a drop in mortgage prepayments. This could increase the fund s sensitivity to rising interest rates and its potential for price declines. Glossary Bloomberg Barclays 1 3 Year U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index: An index that measures the performance of U.S. government, investment-grade corporate, and investment-grade international dollar-denominated bonds that have maturities of between 1 and 3 years and are publicly issued. Credit spread: The difference between the yield on a corporate bond and a Treasury of a similar maturity. Duration: A measure of a bond fund s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. For example, a fund with a duration of two years would fall about 2% in price in response to a one-percentage-point rise in interest rates, and vice versa. Fed funds rate: The interest rate charged on overnight loans of reserves by one financial institution to another in the United States. The Federal Reserve sets a target federal funds rate to affect the direction of interest rates. Lipper averages: The averages of available mutual fund performance returns for specified time periods in defined categories as tracked by Lipper Inc. SEC yield (30-day): A method of calculating a fund s yield that assumes all portfolio securities are held until maturity. Yield will vary and is not guaranteed. Yield curve: A graphic depiction of the relationship between yields and maturity dates for a set of similar securities. A security with a longer maturity usually has a higher yield. If a short-term security offers a higher yield, then the curve is said to be inverted. If shortand long-term bonds are offering equivalent yields, then the curve is said to be flat.

Fund Expense Example As a mutual fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as redemption fees or sales loads, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the most recent six-month period and held for the entire period. Please note that the fund has three share classes: The original share class (Investor Class) charges no distribution and service (12b-1) fee, the Advisor Class shares are offered only through unaffiliated brokers and other financial intermediaries and charge a 0.25% 12b-1 fee, and I Class shares are available to institutionally oriented clients and impose no 12b-1 or administrative fee payment. Each share class is presented separately in the table. Actual Expenses The first line of the following table (Actual) provides information about actual account values and expenses based on the fund s actual returns. You may use the information on this line, together with your account balance, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number on the first line under the heading Expenses Paid During Period to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes The information on the second line of the table (Hypothetical) is based on hypothetical account values and expenses derived from the fund s actual expense ratio and an assumed 5% per year rate of return before expenses (not the fund s actual return). You may compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds by contrasting this 5% hypothetical example and the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. Note: T. Rowe Price charges an annual account service fee of $20, generally for accounts with less than $10,000. The fee is waived for any investor whose T. Rowe Price mutual fund accounts total $50,000 or more; accounts electing to receive electronic delivery of account statements, transaction confirmations, prospectuses, and shareholder reports; or accounts of an investor who is a T. Rowe Price Personal Services or Enhanced Personal Services client (enrollment in these programs generally requires T. Rowe Price assets of at least $250,000). This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds. You should also be aware that the expenses shown in the table highlight only your ongoing costs and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as redemption fees or sales loads. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. To the extent a fund charges transaction costs, however, the total cost of owning that fund is higher. 11
