PRESIDENT’S LETTER

Top o’ the Market to You?

Dear Shareholder,

Asset prices have surged broadly in 2017, raising the question of how long the good times can last. This month, a painting attributed to Leonardo da Vinci sold for $450 million, shattering previous records. Bitcoin, a currency without an underlying economy, recently surpassed $15,000 per coin. In September, Austria sold a 100-year bond issue at a yield of only 2.1%. Apparently, there’s a lot of money sloshing around the global economy, looking for a place to go: does it mean investors are growing overconfident? Are we nearing a market top?

At this point it doesn’t seem so. High prices don’t necessarily mean markets will fall — declines usually occur for a reason, such as an economic recession, dwindling corporate earnings or central banks sharply raising interest rates in efforts to limit inflation. We’re in an unusual period where countries all over the world are growing yet inflation is still low, so we believe central banks have little need to raise rates aggressively. Further, while we expect rates to rise marginally in the U.S., the U.K. and Europe over the next year, we don’t think this presents a challenge to growth, since economic data are solid and corporate earnings are powering ahead.

Still, with prices high, the effects of a downturn could be stressful and widespread. But investors also should remember that worrying about whether a top is near can make it tempting to time the market. Historically, market timing has generally proven to leave the average investor worse off than staying the course.

Regardless of where markets currently are in their cycles, we believe investors are best served by following their asset allocation plan and avoiding the temptation to time entry or exit points. We think the way to make the most of opportunities that present themselves is to engage in broad global diversification across continents and asset classes. If your goals have changed, thoroughly discuss them with your financial advisor before making any changes to your investment strategy.

We seek to remain a reliable partner committed to reliable investing, helping you and your financial advisor achieve your goals. We appreciate your continued confidence in us, and we look forward to serving your investment needs in the future.

Sincerely,

Shaun Mathews

MARKET PERSPECTIVE: SIX MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2017

Our new fiscal year started with global equities, in the form of the MSCI World Index^SM (the “Index”), measured in local currencies, including net reinvested dividends, already up more than 8%, carried higher in what seemed to be the path of least resistance. Investor sentiment was still trying to come to terms with the unexpected result of the U.S. presidential election. For this and perhaps more importantly, other reasons, the Index continued its advance, rising in every month, to end up 8.28% for the fiscal half-year. (The Index returned 9.55% for the six-month period ended November 30, 2017, measured in U.S. dollars.)

While the period started with most commentators having largely discounted a reflation trade driven by U.S. legislative initiatives, this did not mean that such initiatives were dead; just that the credibility of anything market friendly coming out of them had fallen very low. The President had said on February 9 that he would announce his pro-growth tax reform plan in the coming weeks. Nothing solid had emerged and by early July the Senate was still pre-occupied with the Affordable Care Act (“ACA”), desperately trying to pass any version of a repeal and replace bill. Such attempts finally foundered in the early hours of July 28.

But investors could still take comfort in a narrative of improving global growth and corporate earnings, with monetary conditions still historically easy, to underpin the prices of risk assets. The evidence was there to see. In August the Wall Street Journal observed that the prices of base metals had recently hit multi-year highs, inferring that investors were increasingly bullish on global growth, and later noted that every country tracked by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development was set to grow in 2017.

In the euro zone, unemployment ended November at 8.8%, the lowest since January 2009. Gross domestic product (“GDP”) grew 2.5% year-over-year in the third quarter of 2017, slightly higher than the U.S. (2.3%). The European Central Bank finally confirmed that monthly bond purchases would be halved to €30 billion in 2018. The region’s Economic Sentiment Indicator ended the period at the highest since 2000.

China’s GDP growth in the second quarter of 2017 was a healthy 6.9% year-over-year and 6.8% in the third. Foreign exchange reserves grew for the ninth straight month in October, indicating more stable financial conditions. Imports were continuing to grow at double-digit year-over-year rates, supporting global demand. Excessive debt remained a problem in financial markets, however. In November the authorities announced sweeping new regulations for 2018, among other things curbing leverage in asset management products and prohibiting promises of guaranteed returns.

Even Japan contributed some good news with GDP rising in the third quarter of 2017 for the seventh straight quarter.

In the U.S., the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) added a further 25bp (0.25%) in March and did so again in June to the federal funds rate. But areas of sluggishness, like low core consumer price inflation and wage growth persisted into September, which started with devastating hurricanes and rising geo-political tensions with North Korea. Some commentators suggested that the FOMC might be done for the year.

However, the hurricanes subsided, geo-political tensions cooled and yet another forlorn attempt to replace the ACA was shrugged off. The November employment report showed the

unemployment rate at 4.07%, the lowest since February 2001. Third quarter GDP growth was reported at 3.3% (annualized) after 3.1% in the second. A December rate increase was now a near certainty. The outline of a long-awaited pro-growth tax reform program was finally announced: different as between House and Senate and in the latter case moving day by day to bring recalcitrant senators on board. For investors, its key feature was a reduction in the corporate tax rate to 20%, which many believed would be used to increase share buy-backs and dividends. November ended with the Senate’s tax package likely to pass.

In U.S. fixed income markets, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (“Barclays Aggregate”) added 0.68% in the fiscal half-year. The Treasury yield curve rose but became flatter, with the result that the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Treasury Bond Index lost 0.04% while the Bloomberg Barclays Long-Term U.S. Treasury sub-index gained 1.68%. Indices of riskier classes outperformed Treasuries: the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Corporate Investment Grade Bond sub-index climbed 1.91%, and the Bloomberg Barclays High-Yield Bond — 2% Issuer Constrained Composite Index (not a part of the Barclays Aggregate) rose 2.29%.

U.S. equities, represented by the S&P 500^® Index including dividends, gained 10.89% in the six-months through November, repeatedly closing at a new high. The earnings per share of its constituent companies grew 10% year-over-year in the second quarter of 2017, and 6% in the third. The financials sector was the leader, soaring 19.33%. Consumer staples was the weakest sector, adding just 0.46%.

In currencies, the dollar fell 5.16% against the euro, 4.25% against the pound. This reflected the continued dissipation of the post-election reflation euphoria. In the meantime, the euro zone’s prospects had improved, while some of the panic over Brexit had faded. The dollar rose 1.64% against the yen, moving within a narrow trading range.

In international markets, the MSCI Japan^® Index surged 14.55% over the half-year, in an environment of improving corporate governance and profitability, with little competition from fixed income investments. The MSCI Europe ex UK^® Index rose 2.32%. Aside from the positive developments noted above, corporate earnings were improving and political fears were assuaged by the election of a centrist President in France. But gains were muted by the strengthening euro. The MSCI UK^® Index slipped 0.94%. GDP growth was down to 1.5% year-over-year, little or no progress was being made on Brexit negotiations and it was becoming abundantly clear that the UK’s negotiating position was very weak.

Voya Large-Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund’’) seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by Jeffrey Bianchi, CFA, Christopher F. Corapi, and Michael Pytosh, Portfolio Managers, of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the six-month period ended November 30, 2017, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 10.01% compared to the Russell 1000^® Growth Index (the “Index” or “Russell 1000^® Growth”), which returned 13.05% for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: The Fund underperformed the Index for the reporting period primarily due to stock selection effects. Stock selection within the consumer discretionary, health care and industrial sectors detracted the most from performance. Stock selection in the consumer staples, energy and financials sectors contributed the most to performance.

Among the key detractors were our overweight positions in O’Reilly Automotive, Inc. (“ORLY”) and Gilead Sciences, Inc. (“GILD”) and not owning benchmark security, Boeing Company (“BA”).

An overweight position in ORLY generated unfavorable results during the period. Shares declined following weaker than expected quarterly results driven by weather-related headwinds. ORLY’s underperformance was further exacerbated by Amazon’s increased focus on the space, which market participants fear could result in greater price competition and margin pressure.

Our positioning in GILD detracted from results. Investor disappointment over the weaker than expected sales outlook for GILD’s Hepatitis-C franchise in 2018 and uncertainty on the upcoming launch of new CAR-T drug in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma weighed on GILD shares over the last five weeks of the period.

Not owning benchmark stock and aerospace company, BA, detracted from performance during the period. BA shares advanced following strong second quarter results and a raise in full year earnings guidance. Investors have been skeptical of the company’s ability to generate strong free cash flow; nonetheless, the company significantly outperformed expectations in the second quarter and raised full year cash generation on the heels of good order flow and better execution on the 787 program.

Key contributors to performance include not owning benchmark security, Altria Group, Inc. (“MO”) and our overweight positions in VMware, Inc. (“VMW”) and UnitedHealth Group Incorporated “(UNH”).

Top Ten Holdings as of November 30, 2017 (as a percentage of net assets)

Apple, Inc.	7.1	%
Microsoft Corp.	6.9	%
Amazon.com, Inc.	3.7	%
UnitedHealth Group, Inc.	3.3	%
Facebook, Inc.	3.0	%
Home Depot, Inc.	3.0	%
Comcast Corp. — Class A	2.8	%
Alphabet, Inc. — Class A	2.6	%
PepsiCo, Inc.	2.5	%
Texas Instruments, Inc.	2.4	%
*Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.*

Not owning benchmark stock, MO, a holding company which engages in the production and marketing of tobacco products, contributed to relative performance during the period. Shares plummeted alongside its peers in reaction to the FDA’s announced regulatory plan to reduce nicotine in cigarettes to non-addictive levels.

An overweight position in VMW contributed to results during the period. Shares outperformed following another strong quarter and a raise fiscal year 2018 guidance as momentum continues in VMW’s hybrid cloud business.

An overweight position in UNH, benefited results during the period. Shares advanced due to strong earnings growth in both the managed health plan business and Optum’s technology-enabled health services.

Current Strategy and Outlook: We believe that the U.S. economy is in a phase of self-sustaining, if slow, economic recovery. Amid continuing, modestly improving economic conditions in the United States and increased optimism about the outlook for economic growth, the Federal Reserve Board is expected to move toward a normalized interest rate environment. Further, we believe that the health of U.S. corporations remains intact, as evidenced by significant amounts of free cash flow and record high incremental margins. U.S. corporations are also actively returning capital to shareholders via dividend increases and share buybacks.

Voya Large Cap Value Fund (the “Fund’’) seeks long-term growth of capital and current income. The Fund is managed by Kristy Finnegan, CFA, Vincent Costa, CFA, James Dorment, CFA, and Christopher F. Corapi, Portfolio Managers, of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the six-month period ended November 30, 2017, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 6.43% compared to the Russell 1000^® Value Index (the “Index” or “Russell 1000^® Value”), which returned 8.79% for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: Underperformance for the reporting period was driven by unfavorable stock selection. Stock selection within the consumer discretionary, healthcare and energy sectors detracted the most from performance. By contrast, stock selection within the industrial and real estate sectors contributed the most to performance.

On an individual stock level, key detractors from performance for the period were DISH Network Corporation (“DISH”), Philip Morris International Inc. (“PM”) and Bank of America Corporation (“BAC”).

An overweight position in DISH, a holding company which engages in the provision of pay TV services, underperformed after reporting mixed second quarter 2017 results. While the company’s pay TV subscriber losses, which include Sling subscribers, were better than consensus forecasts, it reported worse than expected results for revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) given weaker average revenue per user. Furthermore, speculation related to a Sprint/T-Mobile merger is believed to be limiting the company’s options for monetizing its spectrum.

An overweight position in PM a tobacco holding company, underperformed for the reporting period. Shares sold off after PM reported weak third quarter 2017 earnings largely driven by currency headwinds, competitive pressures in Russia and sharp tax increases in Saudi Arabia. Furthermore, the company reduced earnings per share (EPS) guidance for fiscal year 2017. Nevertheless, we continue to own the stock: we believe that while volumes were down in the combustible cigarette business, strong momentum continues with PM’s iQos smokeless device and the company is well positioned for attractive growth in fiscal year 2018.

Within the financial sector, not owning BAC, a benchmark position, detracted from the Fund’s relative performance. The Federal Reserve’s rate hike in June 2017 led to expansion of banks’ net interest margins in the third quarter, and bank stocks traded higher as a result. Bank of America further benefited from solid third quarter results, highlighting management’s progress towards profitability.

Among the key contributors were General Electric Company (“GE”), JPMorgan Chase & Co. (“JPM”) and Rockwell Automation, Inc. (“ROK”)

Top Ten Holdings as of November 30, 2017 (as a percentage of net assets)

JPMorgan Chase & Co.	4.8	%
Exxon Mobil Corp.	4.4	%
Johnson & Johnson	4.2	%
Pfizer, Inc.	3.7	%
Wells Fargo & Co.	3.4	%
Procter & Gamble Co.	2.8	%
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.	2.7	%
Exelon Corp.	2.4	%
Intercontinental Exchange, Inc.	2.3	%
Allstate Corp.	2.3	%

*Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.*

An underweight position in GE, positively impacted the portfolio. Shares of GE sold off following an underwhelming second quarter 2017 earnings report driven by disappointing industrial EBIT, i.e., earnings before interest and taxes; weak cash flow; and a challenged, forward-looking commentary. Regarding the latter, at the long-awaited investor day on November 13, new CEO John Flannery issued initial fiscal year 2018 earnings guidance and framed out his plans for the company, which suggested a tough road ahead. What’s more, GE cut its quarterly dividend prior to the meeting.

An overweight position in JPM a financial holding company, helped results during the period. As noted above, bank stocks traded higher as group during the reporting period. JPM’s stock price further benefited after the company reported strong third quarter 2017 earnings driven by higher core loans, increased investment banking fees and good expense management.

An overweight position in ROK., an industrial automation and information company, contributed to results during the period. ROK shares advanced on the heels of Emerson Electric Co.’s ongoing pursuit and offer to purchase the company at $215/share. While ROK rejected the offer, it is our opinion that investors believe the company is likely to remain a takeover candidate given it is an attractive asset with a strong commitment to cyclical expansion projects.

Current Strategy and Outlook: We continue to see what we believe are attractive valuations in companies in a variety of sectors. Going forward, we believe that dividends will continue to be in demand by investors who are searching for income and for funds with good downside capture such as the Fund has sought to provide.

Voya MidCap Opportunities Fund (the “Fund’’) seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by Jeffrey Bianchi, CFA, and Michael Pytosh, Portfolio Managers, of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the six-month period ended November 30, 2017, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 8.84% compared to the Russell Midcap^® Growth Index and the Russell Midcap^® Index, which returned 12.18% and 9.82%, respectively, for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: The Fund underperformed the Russell Midcap^® Growth Index for the reporting period primarily due to stock selection effects. Stock selection within the consumer discretionary and information technology sectors detracted the most from performance. Stock selection in the healthcare and real estate sectors contributed the most to results.

Among the key detractors were our overweight positions in Alaska Air Group, Inc. (“ALK”), Ulta Beauty Inc. (“ULTA”) and Regal Entertainment Group (“RGC”).

An overweight position in ALK was a headwind during the period. In addition to higher jet fuel costs and softer trends, shares declined following reported weaker than expected revenues in July and a decline in walk-up ticket prices. The integration of the Virgin America acquisition and the retention of its customer base has not been as smooth as investors had hoped.

An overweight position in beauty retailer ULTA, detracted from results during the period as the company missed same-store sales expectations for the first time in several years. What’s more, rising concern over Amazon’s growth in the beauty category led to severe contraction of ULTA’s price-to-earnings multiple. Both factors caused the company’s share price to decline.

An overweight position in RGC detracted from results. Shares declined as box office receipts continue to be weaker than expected; and as a Premium Video on Demand offering looks increasingly likely from a large studio, with uncertain impact on movie attendance.

Key contributors to performance included our overweight positions in Align Technology, Inc. (“ALGN”) and non-benchmark positions in Exact Sciences Corporation (“EXAS”) and VMware, Inc. (“VMW”).

An overweight position in ALGN, a global medical device company focused on clear aligners used in orthodontics, contributed to results during the period. Shares advanced due to stronger than expected volume growth for Invisalign in the U.S. teen market and across several International markets.

Owning EXAS, a molecular diagnostics company which is focused on the early detection and prevention of colorectal cancer, generated strong results. Shares benefited from strong Cologuard sales volumes, thanks to a successful direct-to-consumer advertising campaign which has increased patient awareness of the test. In addition, more health plans are covering Cologuard for members 55 and older.

Owning a non-benchmark position in VMW contributed to results during the period. Shares outperformed following another strong quarter and raised fiscal year 2018 guidance as momentum continues in VMW’s hybrid cloud business.

Current Strategy and Outlook: We believe that the U.S. economy is in a phase of self-sustaining, if slow, economic recovery. Amid continued, modestly improving economic conditions in the United States and increased optimism about the outlook for economic growth, the Federal Reserve Board is expected to move toward a normalized interest rate environment. Further, we believe that the health of U.S. corporations remains intact, as evidenced by significant amounts of free cash flow and record high incremental margins. U.S. corporations also are actively returning capital to shareholders via dividend increases and share buybacks.

Voya Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value Fund (the “Fund’’) seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund’s assets are managed by three sub-advisers — Hahn Capital Management, LLC (“HCM”), LSV Asset Management (“LSV”) and Wellington Management Company LLP (“Wellington”) (each a “Sub-Adviser” and collectively, the “Sub-Advisers”). Each Sub-Adviser manages a portion of the Fund’s assets (each a “Sleeve”) that is allocated to each Sub-Adviser. The following individuals are primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of their respective Sleeve: Elaine F. Hahn and John D. Schaeffer, Portfolio Managers of Hahn Capital Management (“HCM”); Josef Lakonishok, Ph.D., Menno Vermeulen, CFA, Guy Lakonishok, CFA, Greg Sleight and Puneet Mansharamani, CFA, Portfolio Managers of LSV; and James N. Mordy, Portfolio Manager of Wellington.

Performance: For the six-month period ended November 30, 2017, the Fund’s Class I shares provided a total return of 11.69% compared to the Russell Midcap^® Value Index (the “Index” or “Russell Midcap^® Value”), which returned 8.03%, for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: HCM Sleeve — The Sleeve outperformed the Russell Midcap^® Value by approximately 607 basis points (6.07%) for the six-month period ended November 30, 2017. During the period, the Sleeve’s performance benefited from its exposure to the industrials, consumer discretionary, financials, information technology and real estate sectors, offset by underperformance in the energy, consumer staples and healthcare sectors. The dominant reason for the Sleeve’s outperformance was positive stock selection though sector selection was positive as well. The best stock performance came from SEI Investments, CBRE Group, Jacobs Engineering and Becton Dickinson. Detracting from performance were Envision Health Care, Kroger, Pioneer Natural Resources and WabTec. Notably, company earnings have expanded at a higher rate than consensus for the Sleeve’s portfolio companies with those in the industrial, consumer discretionary and financials sectors providing most of the upside relative to expectations. As the prospect for U.S. corporate tax reform became closer to reality, those companies with a greater proportion of U.S. earnings benefited disproportionately to the upside. In addition, we believe that the prospects for continued economic expansion remain strong, buoyed by the recently enacted tax legislation and the greater proportion of retained earnings that companies will have at their disposal to reinvest in value creating projects.

LSV Sleeve — The Sleeve outperformed the Russell Midcap^® Value by approximately 239 basis points (2.39%) for the six-month period ended November 30, 2017. During the period, value indexes continued to trail core indexes across all market capitalization segments including midcap. Within the Russell Midcap^® Value Index, financial stocks led the way amid higher interest rates while other cyclical sectors, materials and industrials, also produced double-digit gains. Defensive sectors including consumer staples and health care, as well as interest rate sensitive real estate stocks, produced more modest gains over the period.

Although the Index trailed the broader midcap market during the period, deeper value stocks within the Index performed relatively well which benefited the Sleeve’s approach. The Sleeve’s sector positioning, which is a residual of our model’s bottom-up stock selection process, contributed to relative performance over the period. The underweight to healthcare, telecommunication services and real estate sectors had a positive effect as did the overweight to materials and financials. Stock selection also contributed overall primarily due to strong results within the energy, consumer staples, materials, and utilities sectors. Stock selection was somewhat weaker within financials, consumer discretionary and real estate as the Sleeve’s holdings resulted in relative underperformance within these sectors.

The largest stock contributors to the Sleeve’s relative performance included Spirit AeroSystems, Valero Energy, Sanderson Farms, Huntsman, and Ameriprise Financial. Stock detractors included positions in Everest Re Group, American Outdoor Brands, United Continental Holdings, and Foot Locker Inc.

Wellington Sleeve — The Sleeve outperformed the Russell Midcap^® Value by approximately 308 basis points (3.08%) for the six-month period ended November 30, 2017.Stock selection was the primary driver of outperformance in the period. Selection within the industrials, consumer discretionary, and materials sectors contributed most to relative returns. This was partially offset by weaker selection in the health care and utilities sectors.

VOYA MULTI-MANAGER MID CAP VALUE FUND

PORTFOLIO MANAGERS’ REPORT

Sector allocation, a residual of the bottom-up stock selection process, was also additive during the period. In particular, an underweight to the real estate sector and an overweight to the financials sector contributed most to relative returns, while an overweight to information technology partially offset these positive effects.

Top contributors to relative performance included petrochemical manufacturer and supplier Westlake Chemical (materials), home construction company D.R. Horton (consumer discretionary), and life and health reinsurance company Reinsurance Group of America (financials). Top detractors from relative performance included medical services provider Envision Healthcare (health care), behavioral healthcare provider Acadia Healthcare (health care), and insurance and reinsurance company XL Group (financials).

Current Strategy & Outlook: HCM Sleeve — Looking ahead, we believe relatively full stock valuations in many sectors may be tested in the fourth quarter of 2017 and beyond, especially if the economic disruptions caused by the Harvey, Irma and Maria hurricanes flow through to the overall economy. In our view, the positive offset is that globally economic growth has improved over the past three quarters of the year and has boosted confidence among investors that corporate profits can continue to grow well into 2018. This perception is adding to the demand for U.S. stocks, particularly those that have significant operations outside this country. Of course, if stronger economic growth prompts the Federal Reserve Board to tighten monetary policy more quickly than expected, there could be some follow-on adverse impacts on business investment and profits.

LSV Sleeve — The Sleeve remains diversified across sectors and continues to trade at a significant discount to the overall market as well as to the value benchmark. Current valuations are 12 times forward earnings estimate and 8 times trailing cash flow compared to 18 times earnings and 12 times cash flow for the benchmark. The Sleeve also has a dividend yield of 2.5% compared to 2.1% for the benchmark. We continue to believe and empirical evidence supports that holding portfolios of deeply discounted stocks pays off well in the long-run and in the short-run is not necessarily highly correlated with market direction.

Wellington Sleeve — We seek to add value through fundamental research and bottom-up security selection. We pursue what we believe to be good companies with solid business models that trade at a discount to their fair-value relative to normalized earnings due to issues we view as solvable or temporary. We are opportunistic, focusing on company-specific fundamentals, sentiment changes, and shifts in industry-dynamics, and look beyond near-term headline factors.

At the end of the period our most significant overweight allocations were to the information technology, industrials and financials sectors, while our largest underweights were to the real estate, utilities, and consumer discretionary sectors.

Voya Real Estate Fund (the “Fund’’) seeks total return consisting of long-term capital appreciation and current income. The Fund is managed by T. Ritson Ferguson, CFA and Joseph P. Smith, CFA, Portfolio Managers of CBRE Clarion Securities LLC — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the six-month period ended November 30, 2017, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 5.07% compared to the MSCI U.S. REIT^® Index (the “Index” or “MSCI U.S. REIT^®”), which returned 4.75%, for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: U.S. real estate stocks, as measured by the MSCI U.S. REIT^® Index, generated a 4.75% total return over the past six months as all property sectors were positive, with the exception of healthcare. The best-performing property type during the period was industrial, which continues to benefit from the e-commerce theme.

We believe, real estate stocks are performing well in this “steady growth” economic environment, supported by solid 6% earnings growth and attractive valuations. With real estate companies trading at a discount to our estimate of inherent real estate value, or net asset value (“NAV”), and an implied capitalization rate approaching 6%, we believe real estate stocks are attractively priced.

During the period, the Fund outperformed the Index primarily as the result of stock selection. Sector allocation decisions also added value. The relative outperformance of holdings in the healthcare, industrial and storage sectors accounted for most of the value added from stock selection. Holdings in the technology/data center, mall and hotel sectors also contributed to relative performance. From a sector allocation standpoint, an underweight position to the underperforming healthcare sector along with an overweight position to the outperforming mall and technology/data center sectors were the top contributors to relative performance during the period.

Current Strategy & Outlook: We are underwriting 6% earnings growth for U.S. property companies in 2018. In this environment, we prefer attractively valued stocks that offer visible earnings growth, conservative balance sheets and modest development pipelines. We favor high quality class A mall companies, data centers, Central Business District office companies, storage, and “niche” residential companies; we are more selective in the healthcare, net lease, and suburban office sectors. Within residential, we like manufactured housing, single family home-for-rent companies and select coastal apartment REITs. Class A mall stocks have been weak because of the growth in on-line shopping as well as department store operating weakness. We believe Class A malls are largely insulated from these secular themes and currently offer attractive value at these levels. We remain selective on the more bond-like sectors that offer modest growth and trade less attractively relative to our estimate of underlying private market real estate value.

Voya SmallCap Opportunities Fund (the “Fund”) seeks capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by James Hasso and Joseph Basset, CFA, Portfolio Managers, of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the six-month period ended November 30, 2017, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 10.44% compared to the Russell 2000^® Growth Index and the Russell 2000^® Index, which returned 14.78% and 13.43%, respectively, for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: The Fund underperformed the Russell 2000^® Growth Index due primarily to unfavorable stock selection. In particular, stock selection within, as well as an underweight allocation to, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sector detracted the most from performance. Stock selection within the healthcare equipment and services sector was also a headwind during the period. By contrast, stock selection within the communication services and retail sectors contributed the most to performance during the period.

Key detractors from performance were Kite Pharma, Inc. (“KITE”), Nektar Therapeutics (“NKTR”) and Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (“EFII”).

Not owning benchmark stock, KITE, a cancer immunotherapy company, detracted from results during the period. Share prices soared following the announcement that Gilead Sciences, Inc. will be acquiring KITE for $11.9 billion ($180/per share) in an all-cash deal which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Our underweight positioning in clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, NKTR, detracted from results. In addition to strong third quarter results reinforced by revenues received from its partnership with Eli Lilly and Company, shares soared in November following the company’s updated timeline for filing its pain-relief drug with the FDA. NKTR also benefited from exciting new cancer data at the at the 2017 Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer.

An overweight in the hardware and equipment sector, EFII, detracted from performance during the period following disappointing third quarter results and lowered fourth quarter guidance. While the company’s product, Nozomi, and textile printing experienced positive growth, shares were under pressure due to a projected decline in EFII’s Fiery business and a slowdown in ceramic and display graphics printing.

The main individual contributors to performance were Camping World Holdings, Inc. (“CWH”), Dana Incorporated (“DAN”) and Simpson Manufacturing Co., Inc.(“TWL”)

Within the retail sector, an overweight position in CWH, the largest retailer of recreational vehicles (“RV”) in the United States, contributed to performance during the period. Share prices rose because the company significantly exceeded expectations for second quarter earnings and raised guidance for future earnings expectations. What’s more, shares gained due to investors’ belief that CHW will benefit from continued growth and a resurgence in the RV industry. In our view, CWH is well-positioned to take advantage of accretive acquisitions and gain market share.

An overweight of DAN, within the capital goods sector, added value during the period. Despite a decline in commercial vehicle demand and currency headwinds, shares rose in response to better than expected quarterly results and anticipated long-term growth attained through new business wins. Additionally, it is our opinion that investors anticipate that improved sentiment in the off-highway and Latin American markets will have a positive, incremental impact on performance.

Within the capital goods sector, an overweight position in TWL generated positive results. Quarterly results were relatively in line; shares reacted positively, however, to the company’s announced long-term growth plan, which included clear, confidence-boosting 2020 targets focused on TWL’s core business, cutting costs and creating shareholder value.

Current Strategy and Outlook: We continue to monitor changes occurring globally, actions at central banks and overall economic data. Our Fund positioning has not changed significantly. We seek to remain nimble and continue to focus on quality companies, such as those that, in our opinion, have strong management, solid balance sheets and good cash flow generation capabilities. Going forward, we believe the Fund is well positioned, as we think that investors will continue to focus on companies’ fundamentals due to ongoing economic uncertainty.

Voya SMID Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund’’) seeks long-term capital growth. The Fund is managed by Joseph Basset, CFA, and James Hasso, Portfolio Managers, of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the six-month period ended November 30, 2017, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 10.44% compared to the Russell 2500 Growth Index (the “Index” or “Russell 2500 Growth”), which returned 14.75% for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: The Fund underperformed the Index for the period, primarily due to unfavorable stock selection. Stock selection within the software and services sector, and within the healthcare equipment and services sector, detracted the most from performance. By contrast, stock selection within the commercial services and retail sectors contributed the greatest value.

The main individual detractors from performance were Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (“EFII”), AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (“AMC”) and Esterline Technologies Corporation (“ESL”).

An overweight position in the hardware and equipment sector, EFII, detracted from performance during the period following disappointing third quarter results and lowered fourth quarter guidance. While the company’s product, Nozomi, and textile printing experienced positive growth, shares were under pressure due to a projected decline in EFII’s Fiery business and a slowdown in ceramic and display graphics printing.

An overweight position in AMC detracted from results during the period. Despite strong performance, long-term growth initiatives and merger and acquisition activities throughout the year, shares have declined due to weaker box office receipts and the potentially negative impact of Premium Video On Demand on traffic.

Within the capital goods sector, an overweight position in ESL, detracted from results during the period. Earlier in the period, shares declined due to disappointing fiscal third quarter and fiscal fourth quarter results, tempered earnings guidance for fiscal year 2018 and ongoing transitional headwinds.

Key contributors to performance were Camping World Holdings, Inc.(“CWH”), Insperity, Inc. (“NSP”) and Dana Incorporated (“DAN”).

Within the retail sector, an overweight position in CWH, the largest retailer of recreational vehicles (RV) in the United States, contributed to Fund performance during the period. Share prices rose because the company significantly exceeded expectations for second quarter earnings and raised guidance for future earnings expectations. What’s more, shares gained due to investors’ belief that CWH will benefit from continued growth and a resurgence in the RV industry. In our view, CWH is well-positioned to take advantage of accretive acquisitions and gain market share.

An overweight position in NSP, a company that provides an array of human resources and business solutions designed to help improve business performance, contributed to performance during the period. Shares rose throughout the quarter as investors gained further confidence in NSP’s ability to retain and grow its business through a comprehensive suite of products.

An overweight of DAN, within the capital goods sector, added value during the period. Despite a decline in commercial vehicle demand and currency headwinds, shares rose in response to better than expected quarterly results and anticipated long-term growth attained through new business wins.

Voya U.S. High Dividend Low Volatility Fund (the “Fund’’) seeks to maximize total return. The Fund is managed by Vincent Costa, CFA, James Ying, CFA, Steve Wetter, and Kai Yee Wong, Portfolio Managers, of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the six-month period ended November 30, 2017 the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 9.59% compared to the Russell 1000 Index (the “Index” or “Russell 1000”), which returned 10.90% for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: The strong performance of the equity markets over the reporting period proved to be a challenging environment for low volatility strategies as certain risk exposures, such as growth and momentum, drove performance. Given the strategy’s underweight to these factors, for the reporting period, the Fund underperformed its benchmark.

On the sector level, portfolio holdings within the real estate, financial and consumer discretionary sectors detracted the most from relative performance. By contrast, portfolio holdings within the industrial, energy and healthcare sectors had the largest positive impact on performance. On an individual stock level basis, key detractors for the period include overweight positions in CenturyLink, Inc., Tahoe Resources Inc., and Uniti Group Inc. Among the key contributors for the period were not owning General Electric Company, a benchmark stock; an overweight position in Boeing Company; and an underweight position in Merck & Co., Inc.

Current Strategy and Outlook: This is an actively managed investment strategy designed to generate higher dividend income and total returns, with lower volatility and better downside capture, than the benchmark. The investment process creates a universe of sustainable dividend-paying stocks and utilizes fundamentally driven sector-specific alpha models to identify, what we believe are, the most attractive stocks within each sector. The Fund is then optimized to seek to maximize prospective alpha and achieve its dividend and volatility objectives.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLES (UNAUDITED)

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, redemption fees, and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2017 to November 30, 2017. Each Fund’s expenses are shown without the imposition of any sales charges or fees. Expenses would have been higher if such charges were included.

Actual Expenses

The left section of the table shown below, “Actual Fund Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, 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 in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The right section of the table shown below, “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses),” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in each Fund and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other mutual funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different mutual funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION

Voya Equity Trust (the “Trust”) is a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), as an open-end investment management company. The Trust was organized on June 12, 1998 and consists of eight separate active investment series (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”): Voya Large-Cap Growth Fund (“Large-Cap Growth”), Voya Large Cap Value Fund (“Large Cap Value”), Voya MidCap Opportunities Fund (“MidCap Opportunities”), Voya Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value Fund (“Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value”), Voya Real Estate Fund (“Real Estate”), Voya SmallCap Opportunities Fund (“SmallCap Opportunities”), Voya SMID Cap Growth Fund (“SMID Cap Growth”), and Voya U.S. High Dividend Low Volatility Fund (“U.S. High Dividend Low Volatility”). Each Fund is a diversified series of the Trust.

Each Fund offers at least one or more of the following classes of shares: Class A, Class C, Class I, Class O, Class R, Class R6, and Class W. The separate classes of shares differ principally in the applicable sales charges (if any), distribution fees (if any), shareholder servicing fees (if any) and transfer agency fees. Generally, shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders are allocated the common expenses of a fund and earn income and realized gains/losses from a fund pro rata based on the daily ending net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Expenses that are specific to a fund or a class are charged directly to that fund or class. Other operating expenses shared by several funds are generally allocated among those funds based on average net assets. Distributions are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocated to each class. Realized gain distributions are allocated to each class pro rata based on the shares outstanding of each class on the date of distribution. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder servicing fees, if applicable.

Voya Investments, LLC (“Voya Investments” or the “Investment Adviser”), an Arizona limited liability company, serves as the Investment Adviser to the Funds. Voya Investments has engaged Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM”), a Delaware limited liability company, to serve as sub-adviser to certain of the Funds. Voya Investments Distributor, LLC (“VID” or the “Distributor”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the principal underwriter to the Funds.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. Each Fund is considered an investment company under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A. Security Valuation. Each Fund is open for business every day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) opens for regular trading (each such day, a “Business Day”). The net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of each Fund is determined each Business Day as of the close of the regular trading session (“Market Close”), as determined by the Consolidated Tape Association (“CTA”), the central distributor of transaction prices for exchange-traded securities (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time unless otherwise designated by the CTA). The data reflected on the consolidated tape provided by the CTA is generated by various market centers, including all securities exchanges, electronic communications networks, and third-market broker-dealers. The NAV per share of each class of each Fund is calculated by taking the value of the Fund’s assets attributable to that class, subtracting the Fund’s liabilities attributable to that class, and dividing by the number of shares of that class that are outstanding. On days when a Fund is closed for business, Fund shares will not be priced and a Fund does not transact purchase and redemption orders. To the extent a Fund’s assets are traded in other markets on days when a Fund does not price its shares, the value of a Fund’s assets will likely change and you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of a Fund.

Assets for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. A security listed or traded on an exchange is valued at its last sales price or official closing price as of the close of the regular trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded or, if such price is not available, at the last sale price as of the Market Close for such security provided by the CTA. Bank loans are valued at the average of the averages of the bid and ask prices provided to an independent loan pricing service by brokers. Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by an exchange on which they are principally traded. Listed options are valued at the mean between the last bid and ask prices from the exchange on which they are principally traded. Investments in open-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day NAV per share. Investments in registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price or official closing price as of the close of the regular trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

When a market quotation is not readily available or is deemed unreliable, each Fund will determine a fair value for the relevant asset in accordance with procedures adopted by the Funds’ Board of Trustees (“Board”). Such procedures provide, for example, that: (a) Exchange-traded securities are valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask; (b) Debt obligations are valued using an evaluated price provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated prices provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to specific securities, benchmark yield, quality, type of issue, coupon rate, maturity, individual trading characteristics and other market data; (c) Securities traded in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market are valued based on prices provided by independent pricing services or market makers; (d) Options not listed on an exchange are valued by an independent source using an industry accepted model, such as Black-Scholes; (e) Centrally cleared swap agreements are valued using a price provided by the central counterparty clearinghouse; (f) OTC swap agreements are valued using a price provided by an independent pricing service; (g) Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued utilizing current and forward rates obtained from an independent pricing service. Such prices from the third party pricing service are for specific settlement periods and each Fund’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent period reported by the independent pricing service; and (h) Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods may be valued based upon quotes furnished by brokers.

The prospectuses of the open-end registered investment companies in which each Fund may invest explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing.

Foreign securities’ (including forward foreign currency exchange contracts) prices are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of Market Close. If market quotations are available and believed to be reliable for foreign exchange-traded equity securities, the securities will be valued at the market quotations. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before Market Close, closing market quotations may become unreliable. An independent pricing service determines the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current value as of Market Close. Foreign securities’ prices meeting the approved degree of certainty that the price is not reflective of current value will be valued by the independent pricing service using pricing models designed to estimate likely changes in the values of those securities between the times in which the trading in those securities is substantially completed and Market Close. Multiple factors may be considered by the independent pricing service in determining the value of such securities and may include information relating to sector indices, American Depositary Receipts and domestic and foreign index futures.

All other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or became unreliable (or if the above fair valuation methods are unavailable or determined to be unreliable) are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Board following procedures approved by the Board. The Board has delegated to the Investment Adviser responsibility for overseeing the implementation of the Funds’ valuation procedures; a “Pricing Committee” comprised of employees of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates has responsibility for applying the fair valuation methods set forth in the procedures and, if a fair valuation cannot be determined pursuant to the fair valuation methods, determining the fair value of assets held by the Funds. Issuer specific events, transaction price, position size, nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. Valuations change in response to many factors including the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer, the value of the issuer’s assets, general economic conditions, interest rates, investor perceptions and market liquidity. Because of the inherent uncertainties of fair valuation, the values used to determine each Fund’s NAV may materially differ from the value received upon actual sale of those investments. Thus, fair valuation may have an unintended dilutive or accretive effect on the value of shareholders’ investments in each Fund.

Each investment asset or liability of a Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” inputs other than quoted prices for an asset or liability that are observable are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the sub-adviser’s or Pricing Committee’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Short-term securities of sufficient credit quality are generally considered to be Level 2 securities under applicable

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

accounting rules. A table summarizing each Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Portfolios of Investments.

GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to total realized and unrealized gains or losses, purchases and sales, and transfers in or out of the Level 3 category during the period. The beginning of period timing recognition is used for the transfers between levels of a Fund’s assets and liabilities. A reconciliation of Level 3 investments is presented only when a Fund has a significant amount of Level 3 investments.

For the period ended November 30, 2017, there have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies.

B. Securities Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or for certain foreign securities, when the information becomes available to the Funds. Premium amortization and discount accretion are determined by the effective yield method and included in interest income.

Real Estate estimates components of distributions from real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). Distributions received in excess of income are recorded as a reduction of cost of the related investments. If Real Estate no longer owns the applicable securities, any distributions received in excess of income are recorded as realized gains.

C. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars.

Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

(1)

Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at Market Close.

(2)

Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at Market Close, the Funds do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding tax reclaims recorded on the Fund’s books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. The foregoing risks are even greater with respect to securities of issuers in emerging markets.

D. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Funds’ investment strategies permit them to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, the Funds will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit them to increase or decrease the level of risk, or change the level or types of exposure to risk factors. This may allow the Funds to pursue their objectives more quickly, and efficiently than if they were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of affecting a similar response to market or credit factors.

In pursuit of its investment objectives, a Fund may seek to increase or decrease its exposure to the following market or credit risk factors:

Credit Risk. The price of a bond or other debt instrument is likely to fall if the issuer’s actual or perceived financial health deteriorates, whether because of broad economic or issuer-specific reasons. In certain cases, the issuer could be late in paying interest or principal, or could fail to pay its financial obligations altogether.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Equity Risk. Stock prices may be volatile or have reduced liquidity in response to real or perceived impacts of factors including, but not limited to, economic conditions, changes in market interest rates, and political events. Stock markets tend to be cyclical, with periods when stock prices generally rise and periods when stock prices generally decline. Any given stock market segment may remain out of favor with investors for a short or long period of time, and stocks as an asset class may underperform bonds or other asset classes during some periods. Additionally, legislative, regulatory or tax policies or developments in these areas may adversely impact the investment techniques available to a manager, add to costs and impair the ability of a Fund to achieve its investment objectives.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. To the extent that a Fund invests directly in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities denominated in, or that trade in, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, it is subject to the risk that those foreign (non-U.S.) currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged by a Fund through foreign currency exchange transactions.

Currency rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. Currency rates may be affected by changes in market interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, by the imposition of currency controls, or other political or economic developments in the United States or abroad.

Interest Rate Risk. With bonds and other fixed rate debt instruments, a rise in market interest rates generally causes values to fall; conversely, values generally rise as market interest rates fall. The higher the credit quality of the instrument, and the longer its maturity or duration, the more sensitive it is likely to be to interest rate risk. In the case of inverse securities, the interest rate paid by the securities is a floating rate, which generally will decrease when the market rate of interest to which the inverse security is indexed increases and will increase when the market rate of interest to which the inverse security is indexed decreases. As of the date of this report, market interest rates in the United States are at or near historic lows, which may increase a Fund’s exposure to risks associated with rising market interest rates. Rising market interest rates could have unpredictable effects on the markets and may expose fixed-income and related markets to heightened volatility. For a fund that invests in fixed-income securities, an increase in market interest rates may lead to increased redemptions and increased portfolio turnover, which could reduce liquidity for certain investments, adversely affect values, and increase costs. If dealer capacity in fixed-income markets is insufficient for market conditions, it may further inhibit liquidity and increase volatility in the fixed-income markets. Further, recent and potential changes in government policy may affect interest rates.

Risks of Investing in Derivatives. The Funds’ use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market or credit risk factors and the overall market. In instances where the Funds are using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market or credit risk factors for securities held by the Funds, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.

Derivative instruments are subject to a number of risks, including the risk of changes in the market price of the underlying securities, credit risk with respect to the counterparty, risk of loss due to changes in market interest rates and liquidity and volatility risk. The amounts required to purchase certain derivatives may be small relative to the magnitude of exposure assumed by a Fund. Therefore, the purchase of certain derivatives may have an economic leveraging effect on a Fund and exaggerate any increase or decrease in the NAV. Derivatives may not perform as expected, so a Fund may not realize the intended benefits. When used for hedging purposes, the change in value of a derivative may not correlate as expected with the currency, security or other risk being hedged. When used as an alternative or substitute for direct cash investments, the return provided by the derivative may not provide the same return as direct cash investment. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives expose a Fund to the risk of improper valuation.

Generally, derivatives are sophisticated financial instruments whose performance is derived, at least in part, from the performance of an underlying asset or assets. Derivatives include, among other things, swap agreements, options, forwards and futures. Investments in derivatives are generally negotiated OTC with a single counterparty and as a result are subject to credit risks related to the counterparty’s ability or willingness to perform its obligations; any deterioration in the counterparty’s creditworthiness could adversely affect the value of the derivative. In addition, derivatives and their underlying securities may experience periods of illiquidity which could cause a Fund to hold a security it might otherwise sell, or to sell a security it otherwise might hold at inopportune times or at an unanticipated price. A manager might imperfectly judge the direction of the market. For instance, if a derivative is used as a hedge to offset investment risk in another security, the hedge might not correlate to the market’s movements and may have

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

unexpected or undesired results such as a loss or a reduction in gains.

The U.S. government has enacted legislation that provides for new regulation of the derivatives market, including clearing, margin, reporting, and registration requirements. The European Union is (and other countries outside of the European Union are) implementing similar requirements, which will affect a Fund when it enters into a derivatives transaction with a counterparty organized in that country or otherwise subject to that country’s derivatives regulations. Because these requirements are new and evolving (and some of the rules are not yet final), their ultimate impact remains unclear. Central clearing is expected to reduce counterparty risk and increase liquidity, however, there is no assurance that it will achieve that result, and in the meantime, central clearing and related requirements expose a Fund to new kinds of costs and risks.

E. Forward Foreign Currency Transactions and Futures Contracts. Each Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange transactions to convert to and from different foreign currencies and to and from the U.S. dollar, generally in connection with the planned purchases or sales of securities. The Funds either enter into these transactions on a spot basis at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market or may use forward foreign currency contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies. When the contract is fulfilled or closed, gains or losses are realized. Until then, the gain or loss is included in unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Risks may arise upon entering into forward contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their forward contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.

There were no open forward foreign currency contracts for any Fund at November 30, 2017.

Each Fund may enter into futures contracts involving foreign currency, interest rates, securities and securities indices. Each Fund intends to limit its use of futures contracts and futures options to “bona fide hedging” transactions, as such term is defined in applicable regulations, interpretations and practice. A futures contract obligates the seller of the contract to deliver and the purchaser of the contract to take delivery of the type of foreign currency, financial instrument or security called for in the contract at a specified future time for a specified price. Upon entering into such a contract, a Fund is required to deposit and maintain as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the contract is traded. Pursuant to the contract, a Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount equal to the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

Futures contracts are exposed to the market risk factor of the underlying financial instrument. During the period ended November 30, 2017, Large Cap Value had purchased futures contracts on equity indices to “equitize” cash. Futures contracts are purchased to provide immediate market exposure proportionate to the size of the Fund’s respective cash flows and residual cash balances in order to decrease potential tracking error if the cash remained uninvested in the market. Additional associated risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market where the Fund is unable to liquidate the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of the Fund’s securities. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

During the period ended November 30, 2017, Large Cap Value had an average contract amount of $7,642,703 on purchased futures contracts. There were no open futures contracts for any Fund at November 30, 2017.

F. Distributions to Shareholders. The Funds record distributions to their shareholders on the ex-dividend date. Each Fund declares and pays dividends, if any, as follows:

Annually				Quarterly
Large-Cap Growth				Large Cap Value
MidCap Opportunities				Real Estate
Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value
SmallCap Opportunities
SMID Cap Growth
U.S. High Dividend Low Volatility

Each Fund distributes capital gains, if any, annually. The Funds may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies.

G. Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of the Funds to comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their net investment income and any net realized capital

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

gains to its shareholders. Therefore, a federal income tax or excise tax provision is not required. Management has considered the sustainability of the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years in making this determination. No capital gain distributions shall be made until the capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized or expire.

The Funds may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes, whereby a portion of redemption payments are treated as distributions of income or gain for income tax purposes.

H. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

I. Securities Lending. Each Fund has the option to temporarily loan securities representing up to 33 1/3% of its total assets (except Large-Cap Growth which may temporarily lend up to 30% of its total assets) to brokers, dealers or other financial institutions in exchange for a negotiated lender’s fee. Securities lending involves two primary risks: “investment risk” and “borrower default risk.” When lending securities, the Funds will receive cash or U.S. government securities as collateral. Investment risk is the risk that the Funds will lose money from the investment of the cash collateral received from the borrower. Borrower default risk is the risk that the Funds will lose money due to the failure of a borrower to return a borrowed security. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Funds. Securities lending may result in leverage. The use of leverage may exaggerate any increase or decrease in the NAV, causing the Funds to be more volatile. The use of leverage may increase expenses and increase the impact of the Funds’ other risks.

J. Restricted Securities. Each Fund may invest in restricted securities which include those sold under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”) or securities offered pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act, and/or are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may not be publicly sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Restricted securities are fair valued using market quotations when readily available. In the absence of market quotations, the securities are valued based upon their fair value determined in good faith under procedures approved by the Board.

Securities that are not registered for sale to the public under the Securities Act are referred to as “restricted securities.” These securities may be sold in private placement transactions between issuers and their purchasers and may be neither listed on an exchange nor traded in other established markets. Many times these securities are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. As a result of the absence of a public trading market, the prices of these securities may be more volatile, less liquid and more difficult to value than publicly traded securities. The price realized from the sale of these securities could be less than the amount originally paid or less than their fair value if they are resold in privately negotiated transactions. In addition, these securities may not be subject to disclosure and other investment protection requirements that are afforded to publicly traded securities. Certain investments may include investment in smaller, less seasoned issuers, which may involve greater risk.

K. Offering Costs. Costs incurred with the offering of shares of a Fund are deferred and amortized over a twelve month period on a straight-line basis starting at the commencement of operations.

L. Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that provide certain indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, management considers the risk of loss from such claims remote.

NOTE 3 — INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES

The Funds have entered into an investment management agreement (“Management Agreement”) with the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser has overall responsibility for the management of the Funds. The Investment Adviser oversees all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Funds and assists in managing and supervising all aspects of the general day-to-day business activities and operations of the Funds,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES (continued)

including custodial, transfer agency, dividend disbursing, accounting, auditing, compliance and related services. On March 9, 2017, the Board approved a change to reflect that Voya Investments, the Investment Adviser to Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value, may, from time to time, directly manage a portion of the Fund’s investment portfolio effective April 3, 2017. The Management Agreement compensates the Investment Adviser with a management fee, computed daily and payable monthly, based on the average daily net assets of each Fund, at the following annual rates:

Fund			As a Percentage of Average Daily Net Assets
Large-Cap Growth⁽¹⁾			0.51% on all assets
Large Cap Value			0.75% on the first $1 billion; 0.725% on the next $1 billion; 0.70% on the next $1 billion; 0.675% on the next $1 billion; and 0.65% thereafter
MidCap Opportunities			0.85% on the first $1 billion; 0.80% on the next $500 million; 0.75% on the next $500 million; and 0.70% thereafter
Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value			0.80% on all assets
Real Estate			0.80% on all assets
SmallCap Opportunities			1.00% on first $250 million; 0.90% on next $250 million; 0.85% on next $250 million; and 0.82% thereafter
SMID Cap Growth			0.85% on all assets
U.S. High Dividend Low Volatility			0.45% on all assets

Prior to August 1, 2017, the management fee was 0.80% on the first $500 million; 0.775% on the next $500 million; and 0.75% thereafter.

The Investment Adviser has contractually agreed to waive a portion of the management fee for Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value. The waiver was effective in connection with a sub-advisory fee reduction that occurred on February 10, 2014. The waiver is calculated as follows: waiver = 50% x (former sub-advisory fee rate minus new sub-advisory fee rate) x average daily net assets as of the calculation date. Termination or modification of this obligation requires approval by the Board. For the period ended November 30, 2017, the Investment Adviser waived $21,206 in management fees for Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value.

The Investment Adviser has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with each respective sub-adviser. These sub-advisers provide investment advice for certain Funds and are paid by the Investment Adviser based on the average daily net assets of the respective Funds. Subject to such policies as the Board or the Investment Adviser may determine, each sub-adviser manages each respective Fund’s assets in accordance with that Fund’s investment objectives, polices, and limitations. The sub-adviser of each Fund is as follows (*denotes an affiliated sub-adviser):

Fund				Sub-Adviser
Large-Cap Growth				Voya Investment Management Co. LLC*
Large Cap Value				Voya Investment Management Co. LLC*
MidCap Opportunities				Voya Investment Management Co. LLC*
Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value				Hahn Capital Management, LLC, LSV Asset Management and Wellington Management Company LLP

NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES

Each share class of the Funds (except as noted below) has a plan (each a “Plan” and collectively, the “Plans”), whereby the Distributor is reimbursed or compensated (depending on the class of shares) by the Funds for expenses incurred in the distribution of each Fund’s shares (“Distribution Fees”). Pursuant to the Plans, the Distributor is entitled to a payment each month to reimburse or compensate expenses incurred in the distribution and promotion of each Fund’s shares, including expenses incurred in printing prospectuses and reports used for sales purposes, expenses incurred in preparing and printing sales literature and other such distribution related expenses, including any distribution or shareholder servicing fees (“Service Fees”) paid to securities dealers who have executed a distribution agreement with the Distributor. Under the Plans, each class of shares of the Funds, with the exception of Class I, Class R6, and Class W, pays the Distributor Distribution Fees and/or Service Fees based on average daily net assets at the following rates:


Large-Cap Growth	0.25	%⁽¹⁾	1.00	%	N/A		0.50	%
Large Cap Value	0.25	%	1.00	%	0.25	%	0.50	%⁽²⁾

SMID Cap Growth	0.25	%	N/A		N/A		N/A
U.S. High Dividend Low Volatility	0.25	%	N/A		N/A		N/A

⁽¹⁾

Of this 0.25% rate, Distribution Fees shall not exceed 0.10%. Prior to August 1, 2017, the Distribution Fee and/or Service Fee was 0.35% and the Distributor had contractually agreed to waive 0.10% of the Distribution Fee.

⁽²⁾

The Distributor has agreed to waive 0.05% of the distribution fee. Termination or modification of this obligation requires approval by the Board.

The Distributor may also retain the proceeds of the initial sales charge paid by shareholders upon the purchase of Class A shares, and the contingent deferred sales charge paid by shareholders upon certain redemptions for Class A

NOTE 6 — OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES

At November 30, 2017, the following direct or indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Voya Financial, Inc. or affiliated investment companies owned more than 5% of the following Funds:

Subsidiary/Affiliated Investment Company	Fund	Percentage
Voya Global Target Payment Fund	U.S. High Dividend Low Volatility	99.62	%
Voya Institutional Trust Company	Real Estate	8.85
Voya Investment Management Co. LLC	SMID Cap Growth	98.40
Voya Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company	Real Estate	6.14
Voya Solution 2025 Portfolio	Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value	9.11
Voya Solution 2035 Portfolio	Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value	14.22
Voya Solution 2045 Portfolio	Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value	15.11
Voya Solution Moderately Aggressive Portfolio	Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value	18.82

Under the 1940 Act, the direct or indirect beneficial owner of more than 25% of the voting securities of a company (including a fund) is presumed to control such company. Companies under common control (e.g., companies with a common owner of greater than 25% of their respective voting securities) are affiliates under the 1940 Act.

The Investment Adviser may direct the Funds’ sub-advisers to use their best efforts (subject to obtaining best execution of each transaction) to allocate a Fund’s equity security transactions through certain designated broker-dealers. The designated broker-dealer, in turn, will reimburse a portion of the brokerage commissions to pay certain expenses of that Fund. Any amounts credited to the Funds are reflected as brokerage commission recapture in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

The Funds have adopted a deferred compensation plan (the “DC Plan”), which allows eligible independent trustees, as described in the DC Plan, to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the trustees’ fees that they are entitled to receive from the Funds. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the trustee under the DC Plan, the amounts deferred are invested in shares of the funds selected by the trustee (the “Notional Funds”). The Funds purchase shares of the Notional Funds, which are all advised by Voya Investments, in amounts equal to the trustees’ deferred fees, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets, if applicable, are included as a component of “Other assets” on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the DC Plan will not affect net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Funds’ assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the DC Plan.

The Funds may engage in purchase and sale transactions with funds that have a common investment adviser (or affiliated investment adviser) and/or have a common sub-adviser. These interfund transactions are made pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. For the period ended November 30, 2017, Large-Cap Growth engaged in such transactions totaling $114,530,334 in purchases.

NOTE 7 — OTHER ACCRUED EXPENSES AND LIABILITIES

As of November 30, 2017, the below Funds had the following payables included in Other Accrued Expenses and Liabilities on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities that exceeded 5% of total liabilities:

Fund				Accrued Expense				Amount

NOTE 8 — EXPENSE LIMITATION AGREEMENTS

The Investment Adviser has entered into a written expense limitation agreement (“Expense Limitation Agreement”) with each Fund whereby the Investment Adviser has agreed to limit expenses, excluding interest, taxes, investment-related costs, leverage expenses,

The proceeds may be used only to finance temporarily: (1) the purchase or sale of investment securities; or (2) the repurchase or redemption of shares of a Fund or certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser. The funds to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount payable quarterly in arrears.

NOTE 11 — SECURITIES LENDING

Under a Master Securities Lending Agreement (the “Agreement”) with BNY, the Funds can lend their securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are collateralized by cash and U.S. government securities. The collateral is equal to at least 105% of the market value of non-U.S. securities loaned and 102% of the market value of U.S. securities loaned. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the Market Close of the Funds at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded and any additional collateral is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. The cash collateral received is invested in approved investments as defined in the Agreement with BNY. The Funds bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral with the following exception: BNY provides the Funds indemnification from loss with respect to the investment of collateral provided that the cash collateral is invested solely in overnight repurchase agreements.

The cash collateral is invested in overnight repurchase agreements that are collateralized at 102% with securities issued or fully guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury; U.S. government or any agency, instrumentality or authority of the U.S. government. The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Portfolio of Investments under Securities Lending Collateral.

Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Funds have the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. The Agreement contains certain guarantees by BNY in the event of counterparty default and/or a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security; however, there would be a potential loss to the Funds in the event the Funds are delayed or prevented from exercising their right to dispose of the collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Fund.

NOTE 12 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of short-term capital gains, foreign currency transactions, income from passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), wash sale deferrals and the expiration of capital loss carryforwards. Distributions in excess of net investment income and/or net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as return of capital.

Dividends paid by the Funds from net investment income and distributions of net realized short-term capital gains are, for federal income tax purposes, taxable as ordinary income to shareholders.

The tax composition of dividends and distributions to shareholders was as follows:

	Six Months Ended November 30, 2017		Year Ended May 31, 2017

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

NOTE 12 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (continued)

At May 31, 2017, the Funds did not have any capital loss carryovers for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The Funds’ major tax jurisdictions are U.S. federal and Arizona state.

As of November 30, 2017, no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements as a result of tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for open tax years. The Funds’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue. The earliest tax year that remains subject to examination by these jurisdictions is 2012.

NOTE 13 — LITIGATION

On September 24, 2012, certain funds, including Large Cap Value Fund (the “Subject Fund”), was officially served and included as a shareholder defendant (“Shareholder Defendant”) in the matter of Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of the Tribune Company v. FitzSimons, et al., (the “Fitzsimons Action” and/or the “Actual Fraudulent Action”). The Fitzsimons Action is part of the Tribune Company (“Tribune”) Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings before the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). In the Fitzsimons Action, the plaintiff alleges that the Tribune Company acted with actual intent to defraud its creditors when it redeemed its shares from shareholders as part of a leveraged buy-out (“LBO”) of the company through which it converted to a privately-held company in 2007, and that those share transfers must now be unwound. To succeed on this claim, the plaintiff must prove that the Tribune Company — not the Subject Fund — acted with actual fraudulent intent when it redeemed its shares. With regard to the Subject Fund, the plaintiff need only show that the Subject Fund tendered its shares as part of the LBO and not on the open market. The Subject Fund’s lack of fraudulent intent in tendering their shares is not a defense to the plaintiff’s actual fraud claim.

In addition to the Fitzsimons Action, various additional actions, which also included the Subject Fund as a defendant, stemming from the same facts and circumstances underlying the Fitzsimons Action, were filed in multiple U.S. District Courts (collectively, the “State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases”). The plaintiffs in the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases allege that these same share redemptions that were part of the LBO were constructively, as opposed to actually, fraudulent. Specifically, those suits assert that the LBO rendered the Tribune Company insolvent, that there was not reasonably equivalent value for the redemptions, and therefore the redemptions are voidable under constructive fraudulent transfer law.

Procedural History of the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases

A motion was filed with the Multidistrict Litigation (“MDL”) Panel to consolidate the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases for purposes of all pretrial proceedings. On December 19, 2011, the MDL Panel ordered the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases be transferred to the Southern District of New York (the “New York Court”).

On November 6, 2012, the defendant submitted a threshold motion to dismiss the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases, which was granted on September 23, 2013, meaning that the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases cannot go forward unless successfully appealed. Before the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases were dismissed, the threshold for defendants in the case was set at $100,000. On December 20, 2013, the plaintiffs in the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases filed their appeal of the motion to dismiss with the Second Circuit Court of Appeals (the “Second Circuit”). The Second Circuit affirmed the dismissal on March 24, 2016. In reaching its determination, the Second Circuit held that section 546(e) of the Bankruptcy Code barred the creditor state-law fraudulent constructive transfer claims, finding that the claims were preempted because they conflict with the purpose of section 546(e). On April 12, 2016, the plaintiffs moved for rehearing en banc in the Second Circuit. On July 22, 2016, the Second Circuit denied the plaintiffs’ motion and the plaintiffs filed a petition for a writ of certiorari in the Supreme Court on September 9, 2016. The defendants filed their opposition to the petition on October 24, 2016 to which the plaintiffs filed a reply on November 4, 2016. As of January 3, 2018, the Supreme Court has postponed consideration of the plaintiffs’ certiorari petition. A date has not yet been scheduled.

Procedural History of the Fitzsimons Action

Similar to the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases, the Fitzsimons Action was transferred to the New York Court for pre-trial purposes. On November 20, 2013, the judge entered an order stating the Fitzsimons Action would remain with the New York Court. On May 23, 2014, a Motion to Dismiss the Fitzsimons Action, as it applies to the Subject Fund, was filed. On July 3, 2014, a reply to the Motion in Opposition was filed. In late September 2015, the Plaintiffs wrote to the judge asking him to lift the current stay on discovery so that they could take written discovery from certain defendants (not the shareholders). On October 15,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

NOTE 13 — LITIGATION (continued)

2015, the judge denied the Plaintiffs’ request on the grounds that he “intends to issue opinions resolving several of the pending motions to dismiss shortly.” On January 6, 2017, the Motion to Dismiss was granted and the Subject Fund is no longer a defendant in the Fitzsimons Action. The plaintiffs may appeal to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals.

Potential Exposure

For the Subject Fund, if the plaintiffs obtain further review of the dismissal of the Fitzsimons Action or the State Law Constructive Fraudulent Transfer Cases, and the decision is ultimately overturned, the potential exposure of the Subject Fund is the value of all shares sold in conjunction with the LBO transaction (i.e., $1,258,340).

The Subject Fund believes the claims raised in the actions are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them.

The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

At November 30, 2017, the aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments at period end were:

Cost for federal income tax purposes was $194,846,504.

Net unrealized appreciation consisted of:
Gross Unrealized Appreciation	$	50,677,123
Gross Unrealized Depreciation		(11,472,177	)
Net Unrealized Appreciation	$	39,204,946

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED)

BOARD CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACTS

At a meeting held on November 16, 2017, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered and approved the renewal of the investment management contracts (the “Management Contracts”) between Voya Investments, LLC (the “Manager”) and Voya Equity Trust (the “Trust”), on behalf of Voya Large-Cap Growth Fund, Voya Large Cap Value Fund, Voya MidCap Opportunities Fund, Voya Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value Fund, Voya Real Estate Fund, and Voya SmallCap Opportunities Fund, each a series of the Trust (the “Funds”), and the sub-advisory contracts (the “Sub-Advisory Contracts”) with the sub-adviser to each Fund (the “Sub-Adviser”), for an additional one year period ending November 30, 2018. In determining to renew such contracts, the Board took into account information furnished to it throughout the year at meetings of the Board and its committees, including regarding performance, expenses, and other matters.

In addition to the Board meeting on November 16, 2017, the Independent Trustees also held meetings outside the presence of personnel representing the Manager or Sub-Advisers (collectively, such persons are referred to herein as “Management”) on October 12, 2017, and November 14, 2017, specifically to review and consider materials related to the proposed continuance of each Management Contract and Sub-Advisory Contract that they believed to be relevant to the renewal of the Management Contracts and Sub-Advisory Contracts in light of the legal advice furnished to them by K&L Gates LLP, their independent legal counsel, and their own business judgment. Subsequent references herein to factors considered and determinations made by the Independent Trustees and/or the Board include, as applicable, factors considered and determinations made at those meetings by the Independent Trustees. While the Board considered the renewal of the management contracts and sub-advisory contracts for all of the applicable investment companies in the Voya family of funds at the same meetings, the Board considered each Voya fund’s investment management and sub-advisory relationships separately.

The Board follows a structured process pursuant to which it seeks and considers relevant information when it evaluates whether to renew existing investment management and sub-advisory contracts for the Voya funds. The Board has established a Contracts Committee and three Investment Review Committees (the “IRCs”), each of which includes only Independent Trustees as members. The Contracts Committee provides oversight with respect to the management and sub-advisory contracts approval and renewal process, and each IRC provides oversight throughout the year regarding the investment performance of the Sub-Advisers, as well as the Manager’s role in monitoring the Sub-Advisers, with respect to each Voya fund that is assigned to that IRC.

The Contracts Committee oversees, and annually recommends Board approval of updates to, a methodology guide for the Voya funds (“Methodology Guide”). The Methodology Guide sets out a framework pursuant to which the Independent Trustees request, and Management provides, certain information that the Independent Trustees deem important. The Independent Trustees retain the services of an independent consultant with experience in the mutual fund industry to assist the Contracts Committee in developing and recommending to the Board: (1) a selected peer group of investment companies for each Fund (“Selected Peer Group”) based on the Fund’s particular attributes, such as fund type and size, fund category (as determined by Morningstar, Inc., an independent provider of mutual fund data (“Morningstar”)), sales channels and structure and the Fund share class being compared to the Selected Peer Group, and (2) updates to the Methodology Guide with respect to the content and format of various data including, but not limited to, investment performance, fee structure, and expense information prepared in connection with the renewal process.

Provided below is an overview of the material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding the renewal of the Management Contracts and Sub-Advisory Contracts and the compensation to be paid thereunder. Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was overarching, and each Board member may have accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching his or her conclusions with respect to each Fund’s investment management and sub-advisory arrangements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Manager oversees, subject to the authority of the Board, the provision of all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Funds, but may delegate certain of these responsibilities to one or more sub-advisers. In addition, the Manager provides administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Funds as set forth in the Management Contracts, including oversight of the Funds’ operations and risk management and the oversight of their various other service providers.

The Board considered the “manager-of-managers” platform of the Voya funds that has been developed by the Manager pursuant to which the Manager selects, subject to the Board’s approval, experienced sub-advisers to provide day-to-day management services to all or a portion of each Voya fund. The Board recognized that the Manager is

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

responsible for monitoring the investment program, performance, developments, ongoing operations, and regulatory compliance of the Sub-Advisers with respect to the Funds under this manager-of-managers arrangement. The Board also considered the techniques and resources that the Manager has developed to provide this ongoing oversight and due diligence with respect to the sub-advisers and to advocate or recommend, when it believes appropriate, changes in investment strategies or investment sub-advisers designed to assist in improving a Voya fund’s performance. The Board was advised that, in connection with the Manager’s performance of these duties, the Manager has developed an oversight process formulated by its Manager Research & Selection Group which reviews, among other matters, performance data, each Sub-Adviser’s management team, portfolio data and attribution analysis related to each Sub-Adviser through various means, including, but not limited to, in-person meetings, on-site visits, and telephonic meetings with the Sub-Adviser.

Further, the Board considered periodic compliance reports it receives from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer evaluating whether the regulatory compliance systems and procedures of the Manager and each Sub-Adviser are reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the federal securities laws and whether the investment policies and restrictions for each Fund are consistently complied with, and other periodic reports covering related matters.

The Board considered the portfolio management teams assigned by the Sub-Advisers to the Funds and the level of resources committed to the Funds (and other relevant funds in the Voya funds) by the Manager and the Sub-Advisers, and whether those resources are sufficient to provide high-quality services to the Funds.

Based on their deliberations and the materials presented to them, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the overall services provided by the Manager and each Sub-Adviser under the Management Contracts and Sub-Advisory Contracts were appropriate.

Fund Performance

In assessing investment management and sub-advisory relationships, the Board placed emphasis on the investment returns of each Fund, including its investment performance over certain time periods compared to the Fund’s Morningstar category average, Selected Peer Group and primary benchmark. With respect to Voya Multi-Manager Mid Cap Value Fund, the Board also reviewed the performance of the Fund assets allocated by the Manager to each Sub-Adviser. The Board also considered information from the Manager Research & Selection Group and received reports summarizing a separate analysis of each Fund’s performance and risk, including risk-adjusted investment return information, by the Trust’s Chief Investment Risk Officer.

Economies of Scale

When evaluating the reasonableness of management fee schedules, the Board considered whether economies of scale have been or likely will be realized by the Manager and the Sub-Advisers as a Fund grows larger and the extent to which any such economies are reflected in contractual fee schedules. In this regard, the Board noted any breakpoints in management fee schedules that will result in a lower management fee rate when a Fund achieves sufficient asset levels to receive a breakpoint discount. The Board also considered that, while some of the Funds do not have management fee breakpoints, they may have fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board considered the extent to which economies of scale realized by the Manager or the Sub-Advisers could be shared with each Fund through such fee waivers, expense reimbursements or other expense reductions. In evaluating these matters, the Independent Trustees also considered periodic management reports, Selected Peer Group comparisons, and industry information regarding economies of scale. In the case of sub-advisory fee schedules, the Board considered that breakpoints would inure to the benefit of the Manager.

Information Regarding Services to Other Clients

The Board considered information regarding the nature of services, performance, and fee schedules offered by the Manager and the Sub-Advisers to other clients with similar investment objectives, if applicable, including other registered investment companies and relevant institutional accounts. When the fee schedules offered to or the performance of other clients differed materially from a Voya fund, the Board took into account the underlying rationale provided by the Manager or the Sub-Adviser, as applicable, for these differences. For the non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers, the Board viewed the information related to any material differences in the fee schedules as not being a key factor in its deliberations because of the arm’s-length nature of negotiations between the Manager and non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers with respect to sub-advisory fee schedules. The Board also considered that the fee schedules charged to the Funds and other institutional clients of the Manager or the Sub-Advisers (including other investment companies) and the performance of the Funds and the other accounts, as applicable, may differ materially due to, among other reasons: differences in services; different regulatory requirements associated with registered investment companies; market differences in fee schedules that existed when a Fund first was organized; differences in the original sponsors of Funds that now are managed by the Manager; investment capacity constraints that existed when certain contracts

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

were first agreed upon or that might exist at present; and different pricing structures that are necessary to be competitive in different marketing channels.

Fee Schedules, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits

The Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee schedule payable by each Fund to the Manager compared to the Fund’s Selected Peer Group. The Board also considered the contractual sub-advisory fee schedule payable by the Manager to each Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services for each Fund, including the portion of the contractual management fee rates that are paid to each Sub-Adviser, as compared to the portion retained by the Manager. In addition, the Board considered any fee waivers, expense limitations, and/or recoupment arrangements that apply to the fees payable by the Funds, including whether the Manager intends to propose any changes thereto. For each Fund, the Board separately determined that the fees payable to the Manager and the fee schedule payable to each Sub-Adviser are reasonable for the services that each performs, which were considered in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services that each has performed and is expected to perform.

For each Fund, the Board considered information on revenues, costs and profits or losses realized by the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser. In analyzing the profitability of the Manager and its affiliated service providers in connection with services they render to a Fund, the Board took into account the sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Manager to each Sub-Adviser. The Board also considered the profitability of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser attributable to servicing each Fund both with and without taking into account the profitability of the distributor of the Funds. The Board did not request profitability data from the Sub-Advisers that were not affiliated with the Manager because the Board did not view this data as being a key factor to its deliberations given the arm’s-length nature of the relationship between the Manager and these non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers with respect to the negotiation of sub-advisory fee schedules. In addition, the Board noted that non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers may not account for their profits on an account-by-account basis and those that do typically employ different methodologies in connection with these calculations.

Although the Methodology Guide establishes a framework for profit calculation, the Board recognized that there is no uniform methodology within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose. The Board also recognized that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to dramatically different reported profit and loss results with respect to the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser, as well as other industry participants with whom the profits of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser could be compared. In addition, the Board recognized that management’s calculations regarding its costs incurred in establishing the infrastructure necessary for the Funds’ operations may not be fully reflected in the expenses allocated to each Fund in determining profitability, and that the information presented may not portray all of the costs borne by the Manager or reflect all risks, including entrepreneurial, regulatory, legal and operational risks, associated with offering and managing a mutual fund complex in the current regulatory and market environment.

The Board also considered that the Manager is entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that it provides to the Funds. The Board also received information regarding the potential fall-out benefits to the Manager and Sub-Advisers and their respective affiliates from their association with the Funds, including their ability to engage in soft-dollar transactions on behalf of the Funds. Following its reviews, the Board determined that the Manager’s profitability with respect to its services to the Funds and the Manager and Sub-Advisers’ potential fall-out benefits were not unreasonable.

Fund-by-Fund Analysis

Set forth below are certain of the specific factors that the Board considered, and the conclusions reached, at its October 12, 2017, November 14, 2017, and/or November 16, 2017 meetings in relation to approving each Fund’s Management Contract and Sub-Advisory Contract(s). These specific factors are in addition to those considerations discussed above. In each case, the Fund’s performance was compared to its Morningstar category, as well as its primary benchmark, a broad-based securities market index that appears in the Fund’s prospectus. With respect to Morningstar quintile rankings, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. The performance data provided to the Board primarily was for various periods ended March 31, 2017. In addition, the Board also considered at its October 12, 2017, November 14, 2017, and November 16, 2017 meetings certain additional data regarding performance and Fund asset levels and flows as of August 31, 2017, and September 30, 2017. Each Fund’s management fee and expense ratio were compared to the fees and expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.

Voya Large-Cap Growth Fund

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Management and Sub-Advisory Contracts for Voya Large-Cap Growth Fund, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2017: (1) the Fund outperformed its Morningstar category average for all periods presented; (2) the Fund underperformed its primary benchmark for all periods

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

presented, with the exception of the year-to-date period, during which it outperformed; and (3) the Fund is ranked in the first (highest) quintile of its Morningstar category for the three-year and ten-year periods, the second quintile for the year-to-date and five-year periods, and the third quintile for the one-year period.

In considering the fees payable under the Management and Sub-Advisory Contracts for the Fund the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a level fee rate that does not include breakpoints; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Fund, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the contractual management fee rate for the Fund is above the median and the average management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (b) the net expense ratio for the Fund is below the median and the average net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account: (1) Management’s discussion of fee waivers and/or reimbursements, which lower the Fund’s net effective management fee rate; and (2) (2) the change in the Fund’s management fee rate to a lower, flat fee rate, effective August 1, 2017.

After its deliberation, the Board reached the following conclusions: (1) the Fund’s management fee rate is reasonable in the context of all factors considered by the Board; (2) the Fund’s net expense ratio is reasonable in the context of all factors considered by the Board; (3) the Fund’s performance is reasonable in the context of all factors considered by the Board; and (4) the sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Manager to the Sub-Adviser is reasonable in the context of all factors considered by the Board. Based on these conclusions and other factors, the Board voted to renew the Management and Sub-Advisory Contracts for the Fund for the year ending November 30, 2018. During this renewal process, different Board members may have given different weight to different individual factors and related conclusions.

In analyzing this performance data, the Board took into account: (1) Management’s representations regarding the impact of security selection, sector allocation and allocation to cash on the Fund’s performance during certain periods; (2) Management’s discussion of the Fund’s favorable performance during certain periods; and (3) Management’s confidence in the Sub-Adviser’s ability to execute the Fund’s investment objective.

In considering the fees payable under the Management and Sub-Advisory Contracts for the Fund, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a breakpoint fee schedule where the asset level necessary to achieve a breakpoint discount had not been reached by the Fund; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Fund, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the contractual management fee rate for the Fund is above the median and the average management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (b) the net expense ratio for the Fund is below the median and the average net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.

In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account Management’s discussion of fee waivers and/or reimbursements, which lower the Fund’s net effective management fee rate.

Voya MidCap Opportunities Fund

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Management and Sub-Advisory Contracts for Voya MidCap Opportunities Fund, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2017: (1) the Fund outperformed its Morningstar category average for all periods presented, with the exception of the one-year period, during which it

In considering the fees payable under the Management and Sub-Advisory Contracts for the Fund, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the economies of scale benefits to the Fund and its shareholders from breakpoint discounts applicable to the Fund’s management fee rate, which result in lower fees at higher asset levels; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Fund, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the contractual management fee rate for the Fund is above the median and the average management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (b) the net expense ratio for the Fund is above the median and the average net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.

In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account: (1) Management’s representations regarding the competitiveness of the Fund’s management fee and net expense ratio when compared to peers identified by Management; and (2) that, at the Board’s direction during the 2017 annual contract renewal cycle, the Fund’s management fee schedule and sub-advisory fee schedule each was modified to trigger breakpoint discounts at lower asset levels, with these changes to become effective January 1, 2018.

In considering the fees payable under the Management and Sub-Advisory Contracts for the Fund, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a level fee rate that does not include breakpoints; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Fund, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the contractual management fee rate for the Fund is above the median and equal to the average management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (b) the net expense ratio for the Fund is below the median and the average net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.
