SEMIANNual REPORT November 30, 2016 TRBUX T. Rowe Price Ultra Short-Term Bond Fund The fund invests in high-quality, short-term bonds for current income and minimal principal fluctuation.

HIGHLIGHTS A lack of clarity about the policies of the incoming Trump administration and the prospect of global central banks starting to unwind their monetary accommodation created uncertainty in financial markets. The fund outperformed its benchmark over the six-month period, primarily as a result of our allocation to floating rate notes. The fund offers a good alternative for investors seeking more return than a money market fund as well as a safe haven for equity and bond investors in an uncertain risk environment. We expect the Fed will carefully weigh the policy actions of the new U.S. government and global market events before making any additional rate increases. The views and opinions in this report were current as of November 30, 2016. They are not guarantees of performance or investment results and should not be taken as investment advice.

Manager s Letter Fellow Shareholders Improved economic data before the election and hopes for even faster growth under the incoming Trump administration weighed on securities that are vulnerable to rising interest rates, especially Treasury bonds. Over the six-month period, the yield on the two-year U.S. Treasury note rose to 1.11% from 0.87% and the yield curve steepened as longer-term rates rose more than rates on shorter maturities. PERFORMANCE The Ultra Short-Term Bond Fund returned 0.82% during the six-month period ended November 30, 2016, compared with 0.37% for the Bloomberg Barclays Short-Term Government/Corporate Index. The Lipper Ultra-Short Performance Comparison Six-Month Period Ended 11/30/16 Total Return Ultra Short-Term Bond Fund 0.82% Bloomberg Barclays Short-Term Government/Corporate Index 0.37 Lipper Ultra-Short Obligations Funds Average 0.64 Returns do not reflect taxes that the shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Obligations Funds Average generated a 0.64% return for the same period. The portfolio s relative outperformance stemmed mainly from its allocation to floating rate notes. The fund s net asset value rose to $5.01, and dividends contributed $0.03 per share in the six-month period. The investment objective of the fund is to provide incremental income above that of a money market fund, but with a slightly higher degree of principal risk. ECONOMY AND INTEREST RATES The U.S. economy picked up after sluggish performance in the first half of 2016. Although the pace of employment growth moderated, the labor market tightened and wage growth modestly accelerated. 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 may slowly increase 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 the long recovery from the global financial crisis is durable enough to withstand further incremental moves toward normalization of monetary policy. The Fed s more gradual approach to interest rate normalization than 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 would 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% in value 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, higheryielding 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

4.0% 3.5 3.0 2.5 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 0.0 Inflation pressures firmed, too, as commodity prices rebounded above their early-2016 lows. During the six-month period, interest rates moved higher, as markets anticipated that the Federal Reserve would raise its federal funds target rate in late 2016. That upward rate move accelerated after the U.S. election as inflation expectations increased immediately following our reporting period and the central bank lifted the fed funds target rate range to 0.50% to 0.75% an increase of 25 basis points (one hundred basis points equal one percentage point). The yield curve Interest Rate Levels 2-Year Treasury Note 6-Month Treasury Bill 11/30/15 2/16 5/16 8/16 11/30/16 Source: Federal Reserve Board. steepened as long-term rates increased more than short-maturity yields. The yield on the two-year Treasury note began the period at 0.87% and rose to 1.11%. (Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.) Credit spreads on investment-grade corporate bonds narrowed significantly over the period, especially as Treasury yields rose after the election. Strong demand from yield-hungry investors (particularly those in Asia) was satiated by new supply. The prospect of corporate tax cuts and higher levels of government spending from the Trump administration helped support investment-grade corporate bonds as did a decline in risk aversion following the stabilization in oil prices. PORTFOLIO REVIEW While a slow move to higher rates was expected, the sharp move higher that we saw in November was not. Still, the fund s gradual shift over the period to a more defensive duration posture, our focus on building a cash position, and an emphasis on adding floating rate notes to the portfolio all proved beneficial to performance. In particular, the fund s exposure to floating rate notes approximately 20% of the portfolio benefited from a sharp move higher in the LIBOR. The LIBOR increase was the result of asset reallocations occurring in the money markets as a result of money fund reform, which took effect in 3

Their high credit quality (AAA and AA) and rapid selfamortizing features (i.e., their payments consist of both principal and interest), such that the loan will be paid off at the end of a scheduled term, along with decent yields, have made them a significant part of the portfolio.

Therefore, this category may include rated and unrated securities. ** 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. The ratings of U.S. Treasury securities are derived from the ratings on the U.S. government. Sources: Moody s Investors Service; if Moody s does not rate a security, then Standard & Poor s (S&P) is used as a secondary source. When available, Fitch will be used for securities that are not rated by Moody s or S&P. T. Rowe Price does not evaluate these ratings but simply assigns them to the appropriate credit quality category as determined by the rating agency. from the stabilization in oil prices. Money center banks continued to be large issuers of debt, and this sector remained a significant overweight in the portfolio. Many of our bank holdings are floating rate issues that we expect will benefit as rates move higher over the next two years. 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 interest-only mortgages, as well as credit default and interest rate swaps. Given our expectations that rates would move higher before a Fed tightening in December, we reduced the overall duration of the portfolio by actively shorting some derivatives, including U.S. Treasury two- and five-year note futures, fed funds futures, and eurodollar futures. We expect to reduce our derivative exposure gradually, following the actual tightening. 5

OUTLOOK Following the Fed s December 2016 rate hike, we expect the central bank to carefully weigh the policy actions of the new government as well as global market events before moving forward with any additional rate increases. Much uncertainty remains as we move into 2017. As such, we think it is appropriate to maintain a defensive posture as we begin the new year. As always, we believe the fund offers a good alternative for cash investors seeking more return than a money market fund as well as a safe haven for equity and bond investors in an uncertain risk environment. Thank you for your confidence in us and for investing with T. Rowe Price. Respectfully submitted, Joseph K. Lynagh President and chairman of the fund s Investment Advisory Committee December 20, 2016 The committee chairman has day-to-day responsibility for managing the portfolio and works with committee members in developing and executing the fund s investment program. 6

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 Short-Term Government/Credit Bond Index: The index measures the performance of short-term government and corporate bonds. Duration: A measure of a bond fund s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. For example, a fund with duration of two years would fall about 2% in price in response to a one-percentage-point rise in interest rates, and vice versa. Federal 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. LIBOR: The London Interbank Offered Rate, which is a benchmark for short-term taxable rates. 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. Weighted average effective duration: A measure of a fund s price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Funds with longer weighted average effective durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities of shorter durations. Weighted average maturity: A measure of a fund s interest rate sensitivity. In general, the longer the average maturity, the greater the fund s sensitivity to interest rate changes. The weighted average maturity may take into account the interest rate readjustment dates for certain securities. Money funds must maintain a weighted average maturity of less than 60 days. 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. 7

Performance and Expenses Growth of $10,000 This chart shows the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the fund over the past 10 fiscal year periods or since inception (for funds lacking 10-year records). The result is compared with benchmarks, which may include a broad-based market index and a peer group average or index. Market indexes do not include expenses, which are deducted from fund returns as well as mutual fund averages and indexes.

Returns do not reflect taxes that the shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Past performance cannot guarantee future results. 8

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. 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 Preferred Services, Personal Services, or Enhanced Personal Services client (enrollment in these programs generally requires T. Rowe Price assets of at least $100,000). 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. 9

Prior to November 1, 2016, the individual fund fee component of the investment management agreement was 0.08%. Effective November 1, 2016, the fund s individual fund fee was reduced to 0.01%. The actual ending account value and expenses paid during the period would have been $1,008.20 and $1.76, respectively, had the fund s individual fund fee been 0.01% throughout the full 6-month period. 10

Quarter-End Returns Since Inception Periods Ended 9/30/16 One Year 12/3/12 Ultra Short-Term Bond Fund 1.49% 0.69% Current performance may be higher or lower than the quoted past performance, which cannot guarantee future results. Share price, principal value, and return will vary, and you may have a gain or loss when you sell your shares.

This table provides returns through the most recent calendar quarter-end rather than through the end of the fund s fiscal period. It shows how the fund would have performed each year if its actual (or cumulative) returns for the periods shown had been earned at a constant rate. Average annual total return figures include changes in principal value, reinvested dividends, and capital gain distributions. Returns do not reflect taxes that the shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. When assessing performance, investors should consider both short- and long-term returns. Expense Ratio Ultra Short-Term Bond Fund 0.40% The expense ratio shown is as of 11/1/16. This number may vary from the expense ratio shown elsewhere in this report because it is based on a different time period and, if applicable, includes acquired fund fees and expenses but does not include fee or expense waivers. 11
