30-Day SEC Yield 30-Day SEC Yield

A standard yield calculation developed by the Securities and Exchange Commission that allows for fairer comparisons among bond funds. It is based on the most recent 30-day period. This yield figure reflects the interest earned during the period after deducting the fund's expenses for the period.

For funds holding To-Be-Announced (TBA) contracts, the 30 day SEC yield includes income earned on cash holdings and direct holdings of mortgage pools, net of fund expenses . Certain funds obtain a significant amount of its mortgage market exposure through TBA transactions. Those Funds invest cash pending settlement of any TBA transactions in high-quality, liquid short-term instruments. TBA contracts provide the fund with economic exposure to the mortgage market. The income that they generate is paid out in fund distributions but is not included in the SEC yield calculation. As a result, for funds holding TBA contracts, the SEC yield will generally be below the stated fund distribution yield.

The annual yield an investor would receive if the most recent fund distribution stayed the same going forward. The yield represents a single distribution from the fund and does not represent the total return of the fund. The yield is calculated by annualizing the most recent distribution and dividing by the fund NAV from the as-of date.

The Standard Deviation is the statistical measure of the degree to which an individual value in a probability distribution tends to vary from the mean of the distribution. It is widely applied in modern portfolio theory, where the past performance of securities is used to determine the range of possible future performance, and a probability is attached to each performance.

Carefully consider the iShares Funds' investment objectives, risk factors, and charges and expenses before investing.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.

Certain iShares funds are subject to management fee breakpoints as assets increase. The breakpoints take effect immediately after asset tier levels are reached, thus a fund's actual management fee being applied may not match the fund's web site or prospectus on a given day.

‡ “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses” reflect the Fund's pro rata share of the indirect fees and expenses incurred by investing in one or more acquired funds, such as mutual funds, business development companies, or other pooled investment vehicles. Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are reflected in the prices of the acquired funds and thus included in the total returns of the Fund.

On 10/17/2012 the iShares Barclays Aggregate Bond Fund changed its name to the iShares Core Total U.S. Bond Market ETF and its expense ratio (shown below) from 0.20% to 0.08%
