Performance quoted represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than average annual returns shown. Investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. Shares may be worth more or less than original cost when redeemed. MOP returns take into account the Class A maximum initial sales charge of 3.75%. A redemption fee of 2% may apply to shares redeemed or exchanged within 30 days of acquisition. Performance shown does not reflect any applicable redemption fees and would be lower if it did. Redemption fees are paid to and retained by the Fund and are not sales charges.

The daily section presents performance dating from the inception of the actual share class only.

 

**This is the inception date of the oldest share class, which for this Fund is the Institutional share class. The returns presented are for Class A shares, which were first offered in 7/07. Returns measure performance from the inception of the oldest share class to the present, so some returns predate the inception of Class A. Those returns are calculated by adjusting the Institutional returns to reflect the A shares' different charges and expenses. Total return performance assumes that all dividend and capital gains distributions were reinvested on the payable date and does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

 

The PIMCO Emerging Local Bond Fund will invest under normal circumstances primarily in Fixed Income Instruments denominated in currencies of countries with emerging securities markets. The Fund’s investments in Fixed Income Instruments may be represented by forwards or derivatives. Investing in non-U.S. securities entails additional risks, including political and economic risk and the risk of currency fluctuations; these risks are generally enhanced in emerging markets. The Fund may, but is not required to, hedge its exposure to non-U.S. currencies. The Fund may invest all of its assets in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities. Use of derivative instruments involves certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, and management risk. Portfolios investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in those instruments. The Fund may invest all of its assets in high yield securities subject to a maximum of 15% of its total assets in securities rated below B by Moody’s or by S&P, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. High-yield securities generally involve greater risk to principal than higher-rated securities. The Fund is non-diversified, which means that it may concentrate its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund.

 

JPMorgan Government Bond Index-Emerging Markets Global Diversified (USD Unhedged) is a comprehensive global local emerging markets index, and consists of regularly traded, liquid fixed-rate, domestic currency government bonds.

 

Growth of $10,000 and Best/Worst 1-Year Period results are calculated at NAV and assume that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested. They do not take into account sales charges or the effect of taxes. Results are not indicative of future performance.

 

^^ This yield is calculated by annualizing the current month's distribution and dividing by the NAV on the last business day of the period. It does not include long- or short-term capital gains distributions. The SEC Yield is a standardized annual yield based on the most recent 30-day period. It is calculated in accordance with current Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and is subject to change.
