Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  U.S. corporate high-yield bonds gained 2.94% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as measured by the ICE BofAML® US High Yield Constrained Index. On the heels of a solid 2017, high yield began the new year on a high note, driven by optimism for U.S. tax reform, passed in December 2017, which also helped equity markets reach record levels. The uptrend reversed course in early February, though, amid broad market volatility and a backup in U.S. Treasury yields. The asset class took another leg down in March, losing ground largely due to a policy rate hike by the U.S. Federal Reserve and an escalating trade dispute with China. The market stabilized and turned in a strong result in April, but volatility persisted and the index experienced a two-week slump to conclude the first half of 2018. Strong corporate earnings helped high yield make a solid advance in the third quarter of 2018. For the full 12 months, lower-quality bonds rose 8%, topping credits rated B (+3%) and BB (+1%). By industry, energy was among the best performers, with the market heavyweight gaining 6% amid higher oil prices. Other standouts included food & drug retail (+10%) and transportation ex air/rail (+6%), while aerospace (+7%) was lifted by potential for increased spending on U.S. defense and infrastructure. Two defensive categories also outperformed: health care was up 5% and utilities gained roughly 4%. Notable laggards included automotive & auto parts (-2%), banks & thrifts (-1%), and super retail (-1%).

Comments from Co-Portfolio Managers Matthew Conti and Michael Weaver:  For the fiscal year, the fund gained 2.69%, modestly lagging the benchmark ICE BofAML® US High Yield Constrained Index. The low-yielding environment the past 12 months created some challenges from a quality standpoint, given that we take a fairly conservative approach toward credit risk. This backdrop hampered bonds rated BB, which are the most sensitive to interest rates, whereas lower-rated CCC bonds gained 8%. The B credit tier finished between the two, gaining 3%. Given our mandate to maintain a portfolio that is neutral or more conservative than its benchmark, we concentrated the fund in the BB and B credit tiers and underweighted lower-quality securities rated CCC. This positioning detracted from performance versus the benchmark, outweighing positive security selection. By industry, the fund's result was hampered most by our picks in the health care industry. Positioning in telecommunications also detracted, as did our choices in chemicals and cable/satellite TV. Conversely, our holdings in utilities and banks & thrifts helped the fund's relative result. We also benefited from an overweighting in the outperforming energy industry, which represented about 17% of fund assets, on average, this period. Within energy, it hurt to hold a small non-benchmark equity position in Forbes Energy. In April 2017, the company announced its plan to reorganize under Chapter 11, which weighed heavily on its debt. As part of the bankruptcy filing, the fund received stock and new loans, which returned -51% for the fund the past 12 months. Conversely, the largest individual contributor versus the benchmark was oil and gas exploration and production company Noble, as our holdings gained about 23%, rising alongside oil prices.

Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views.

Note to shareholders:  On April 2, 2018, Mike Weaver became Co-Portfolio Manager of the fund, joining Co-Portfolio Manager Matt Conti. The two will manage the fund together until December 31, 2018, at which point Matt plans to retire and Mike will become sole Portfolio Manager.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended September 30, 2018

1. Organization.

Fidelity High Income Central Fund 1 (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC (the LLC) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Shares of the Fund are only offered to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), or its affiliates (the Investing Funds). The LLC is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company.

2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.

The Fund invests in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.

The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Annualized expenses of the Money Market Central Funds as of their most recent shareholder report date are less than .005%.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds, which are not covered by the Fund's Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the SEC website or upon request.

3. Significant Accounting Policies.

The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investments Companies. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:

Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has delegated the day to day responsibility for the valuation of the Fund's investments to the Fair Value Committee (the Committee) established by the Fund's investment adviser. In accordance with valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing vendors or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee oversees the Fund's valuation policies and procedures and reports to the Board on the Committee's activities and fair value determinations. The Board monitors the appropriateness of the procedures used in valuing the Fund's investments and ratifies the fair value determinations of the Committee.

The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:

  • Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
  • Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
  • Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)

Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:

Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing vendors or from brokers who make markets in such securities. Corporate bonds, bank loan obligations and preferred securities are valued by pricing vendors who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing vendors. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances. The Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in below investment grade securities. The value of these securities can be more volatile due to changes in the credit quality of the issuer and is sensitive to changes in economic, market and regulatory conditions.

Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing vendor on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.

Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of September 30, 2018 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Paid in Kind (PIK) income is recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is reasonably assured.

Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of September 30, 2018, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.

Dividends are declared and recorded daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.

Book-tax differences are primarily due to partnerships and losses deferred due to wash sales.

As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Gross unrealized appreciation $7,458,814 
Gross unrealized depreciation (10,158,444) 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) $(2,699,630) 
Tax Cost $410,004,162 

The tax-based components of distributable earnings as of period end were as follows:

Undistributed long-term capital gain $204,574 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities and other investments $(2,699,630) 

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

 September 30, 2018 September 30, 2017 
Ordinary Income $30,121,403 $ 37,509,676 
Long-term Capital Gains 12,775,459 489,171 
Total $42,896,862 $ 37,998,847 

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. During the period, the Fund transacted in securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. The Fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

Loans and Other Direct Debt Instruments. The Fund invests in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owed to lenders by corporate or other borrowers. These instruments may be in the form of loans, trade claims or other receivables and may include standby financing commitments such as revolving credit facilities that obligate the Fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Loans may be acquired through assignment or participation. The Fund did not have any unfunded loan commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding, at period end.

New Accounting Pronouncement. In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU), ASU 2017-08, which amends the amortization period for certain callable debt securities that are held at a premium. The amendment requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of these changes to the financial statements.

4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $294,106,725 and $374,399,491, respectively.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee and Expense Contract. FMR Co., Inc. (the investment adviser), an affiliate of FMR, provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract with the investment adviser, FMR pays the investment adviser a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, FMR also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Directors, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.

Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. Brokerage commissions are included in net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statement of Operations. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $422 for the period.

Interfund Trades. The Fund may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note.

6. Expense Reductions.

Through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of certain uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the Fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the Fund's custody expenses by $5,993.

7. Other.

The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC and the Shareholders of Fidelity High Income Central Fund 1:

Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity High Income Central Fund 1 (the "Fund"), a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC, including the schedule of investments, as of September 30, 2018, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of September 30, 2018, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2018, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.

In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing the fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the fund, is provided below.

Board Structure and Oversight Function. James C. Curvey is an interested person and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the fund. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chairman, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chairman and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. Ned C. Lautenbach serves as Chairman of the Independent Trustees and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.

Fidelity® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The fund's Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity® funds overseen by the fund's Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity® funds overseen by each Board.

The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the fund's activities and associated risks.  The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the fund's business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above.  Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the fund are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the fund's exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees.  While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the fund's activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees.  In addition, the Independent Trustees have worked with Fidelity to enhance the Board's oversight of investment and financial risks, legal and regulatory risks, technology risks, and operational risks, including the development of additional risk reporting to the Board.  Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the fund's Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the fund's Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity® funds.  The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (April 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018).

Actual Expenses

The first line of the accompanying table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Hypothetical-C  $1,000.00 $1,025.05 $.02 

 A Annualized expense ratio reflects expenses net of applicable fee waivers.

 B Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 183/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

 C 5% return per year before expenses

Distributions (Unaudited)

The fund hereby designates as a capital gain dividend with respect to the taxable year ended September 30, 2018, $1,532,406, or, if subsequently determined to be different, the net capital gain of such year.

A total of 0.19% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year was derived from interest on U.S. Government securities which is generally exempt from state income tax.

The fund designates $13,894,745 of distributions paid during the period January 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018 as qualifying to be taxed as interest-related dividends for nonresident alien shareholders.

The fund will notify shareholders in January 2019 of amounts for use in preparing 2018 income tax returns.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts

Fidelity High Income Central Fund 1

At its July 2018 meeting, the Board of Directors, including the Independent Directors (together, the Board), voted to continue the management contract with FMR Co., Inc. (FMRC) and the sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund for six months through January 31, 2019, in connection with the reunification of the Fidelity Equity High Income Funds Board, which oversees the fund, and the Sector Portfolios Board.

The Board considered that the approval of the fund's Advisory Contracts will not result in any changes in (i) the investment process or strategies employed in the management of the fund's assets; (ii) the fees and expenses paid by shareholders; (iii) the nature, extent or quality of services provided under the fund's Advisory Contracts; or (iv) the day-to-day management of the fund or the persons primarily responsible for such management. The Board concluded that the fund's Advisory Contracts are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed, without modification, through January 31, 2019, with the understanding that the Board will consider the annual renewal for a full one year period in January 2019.

In connection with its consideration of future renewals of the fund's Advisory Contracts, the Board will consider: (i) the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the fund, including shareholder and administrative services and investment performance; (ii) the competitiveness of the management fee and total expenses for the fund; (iii) the costs of the services and profitability, including the revenues earned and the expenses incurred in conducting the business of developing, marketing, distributing, managing, administering, and servicing the fund and its shareholders, to the extent applicable, as well as potential fall-out benefits from Fidelity's non-fund businesses; and (iv) whether there have been economies of scale in respect of the Fidelity funds, whether the Fidelity funds (including the fund) have appropriately benefited from any such economies of scale, and whether there is the potential for realization of any further economies.

Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board ultimately concluded that the fund's management fee structure is fair and reasonable, and that the continuation of the fund's Advisory Contracts should be approved.

Fidelity® Consumer Discretionary Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Consumer Discretionary Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager Katherine Shaw:  For the fiscal year, the fund gained 31.42%, outpacing the 28.02% advance of the MSCI U.S. IMI Consumer Discretionary 25/50 Index, as well as the broad-market S&P 500®. The past 12 months, consumer discretionary stocks benefited from positive business fundamentals and upbeat consumer sentiment. Jobs data trended upward and investors remained confident that the sweeping $1.5 trillion U.S. tax-reform plan passed in December 2017 could boost consumers' discretionary spending in 2018. The fund’s outperformance of the MSCI sector index this period was driven by underweightings in the auto parts & equipment and automobile manufacturers categories, each of which lost ground. Security selection in internet & direct marketing retail also helped our relative result. Conversely, notable detractors versus the MSCI index included overexposure to hotels, resorts & cruise lines, along with our choices in general merchandise stores. Among individual stocks, Amazon.com was our biggest holding and largest individual contributor. Shares of Amazon gained roughly 108%, rising on the firm’s sustained dominance in its core e-commerce and cloud markets. Relative performance also received a boost from our decision to not own index component Ford Motor and largely avoid media giant Time Warner, as both stocks declined the past 12 months. Time Warner was not held at period end. Conversely, a sizable overweighting in Charter Communications was the fund’s biggest individual relative detractor. Our position in the stock returned about -11%, largely weighed down by concerns related to cord cutting. Another large fund holding that hurt this period was discount retailer Dollar Tree (-6%).

Fidelity® Consumer Staples Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Consumer Staples Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager James McElligott:  For the fiscal year, the fund returned -1.76%, lagging the 3.90% gain of the MSCI U.S. IMI Consumer Staples 25/50 Index and considerably behind the broad-based S&P 500®. Consumer staples stocks underperformed the broader market the past 12 months because investors favored more-cyclical (economically sensitive), faster-growing sectors. Within the MSCI sector index, the tobacco (-14%) and household products (-2%) industries struggled this period, whereas notable outperformers included food retail (+39%), personal products (+33%), and hypermarkets & super centers (+30%). The fund’s sizable underweighting in hypermarkets & super centers detracted from our result versus the MSCI sector index. This partially reflected underexposure to Walmart, which returned roughly -1% while held in the fund. Stock picks in household products and personal products also hurt our relative result, as did an overweighting in tobacco. Other individual disappointments included an overweighting in Coty (-21%), as the stock sank because investors became impatient with the turnaround of some recently acquired make-up brands. Coty was among the fund's largest holdings, as we notably increased exposure the past 12 months. Conversely, positioning in food retail modestly aided relative performance. The top individual contributor was a non-index stake in Simply Good Foods (+66%), a maker of healthy snack foods. Its shares benefited from the company's recent advertising campaign and the trend toward health-conscious foods. This period, we meaningfully added to our stake in Simply Good Foods.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Note to shareholders:  On November 17, 2017, James McElligott succeeded Robert Lee as Portfolio Manager of the fund.

Fidelity® Energy Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Energy Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager John Dowd:  For the fiscal year, the fund returned 19.16%, handily outperforming the 15.35% advance of the MSCI U.S. IMI Energy 25/50 Index, and also topping the broad-based S&P 500. Global economic expansion, stronger-than-expected global demand for crude oil and declining inventory levels pushed crude-oil prices above $70 per barrel this past year, providing a tailwind for corporate profitability and stock prices in the sector. Versus the MSCI index, our main strategy – overweighting oil & gas exploration & production (E&P) stocks and underweighting integrated oil & gas stocks – made the biggest contribution to fund performance. Within the index, E&Ps gained about 27% this period, outperforming the integrated oil & gas industry (+10%). In terms of individual stocks, a non-index stake in Viper Energy Partners (+147%) was the fund's biggest contributor. The company's shares benefited from better-than-expected financial results. A sizable underweighting in energy services company Schlumberger also added value, as the stock returned -10% due in part to weak demand for offshore drilling services. Conversely, stock selection in the oil & gas drilling industry held back the fund's relative result. An underweighting in ConocoPhillips was the fund's biggest relative detractor. Shares of Conoco, an E&P, rallied nearly 58% this period due to better-than-expected profit growth, a high free-cash-flow yield and shareholder-friendly capital allocation policies. A large underweighting in the strong-performing stock of Marathon Petroleum (+46%), a refining firm, also proved disappointing.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Co-Portfolio Managers Chris Lee and Samuel Wald:  For the year, the fund returned 7.23%, trailing the 7.50% advance of the MSCI USA IMI Financials and Real Estate Linked Index and well behind the S&P 500. Higher short-term interest rates, strong U.S. economic growth and lower corporate tax rates generally aided financial stocks, but global trade tensions and a flattening yield curve were headwinds. Versus the MSCI index, positioning in the financial exchanges & data and the property & casualty insurance segments detracted most. In terms of individual disappointments, an underweighting in diversified bank JPMorgan Chase hurt, as higher interest rates, lower corporate tax rates, and share buybacks drove its 21% gain. Elsewhere, an overweighting in Hartford Financial Services Group hurt, as the multiline insurance company’s surprise purchase of a competitor’s U.S group life and disability business resulted in a -8% return. Conversely, stock picks in data processing & outsourced services, which is not part of the sector index, as well as in investment banking & brokerage aided relative performance. In addition, positioning in asset management & custody banks helped. Top contributors included online broker E*TRADE Financial (+20%), which gained in part due to rising interest rates and optimism it might be sold, and a non-index stake in fleet card company Wex (+65%), which rallied as improved economic growth and higher oil prices boosted transaction volumes. We sold off our stake in Wex this period to lock in profits.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Fidelity® Health Care Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Health Care Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager Eddie Yoon:  For the fiscal year, the fund gained 25.71%, outpacing the 20.06% advance of the MSCI U.S. IMI Health Care 25/50 Index, as well as the broad-market S&P 500®. Health care stocks outpaced the broader market the past 12 months because companies here were generally boosted by continued strong demand for products and services, favorable fundamentals and good financial results, among other factors. The fund’s outperformance of the MSCI sector index was driven by my decision to hold what we consider more-opportunistic stocks and avoiding some more-defensive index names. By industry, our picks in biotechnology made by far the biggest contribution to the fund’s relative result, although an overweighting here detracted somewhat. Positioning in health care equipment also added meaningful value. Conversely, the fund’s biggest relative detractor was weak security selection in pharmaceuticals. Among individual stocks, relative performance was helped most by our avoidance of lagging index component Celgene (-39%). Shares of the biotech firm suffered amid multiple setbacks, including news of a refusal-to-file letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for Celgene’s candidate to treat multiple sclerosis, as well as the resignation of the firm’s president/chief financial officer. Timely ownership of gene therapy firm Sarepta Therapeutics also contributed, as we established an overweighted stake this period. Conversely, a position in biopharma company Tesaro was the biggest relative detractor by a wide margin, followed by Insmed, a biopharmaceutical firm focused on treatments for rare diseases. We sold our stake in Tesaro by September 30.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views.

Fidelity® Industrials Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Industrials Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager Tobias Welo:  For the year, the fund returned 14.76%, topping the 11.93% return of the MSCI U.S. IMI Industrials 25/50 Linked Index but trailed the S&P 500®. Among the 11 S&P 500® sectors, industrials finished toward the middle of the pack, lifted by expectations of healthy U.S. capital spending but also reflecting worries about trade tensions. Versus the MSCI sector index, the fund was particularly aided by large underweightings in industrial conglomerates General Electric and 3M. I sold off the fund's small stake in 3M during the past year. GE stock returned roughly -52% for the period, hampered by investors’ frustration with a lack of progress on the company’s turnaround plan. I increased our stake here as the stock declined to what I considered a more attractive level. Overweighting heavy equipment maker Caterpillar (+25%) also paid off. The stock benefited earlier in the period from stronger demand driven by the synchronous global economic expansion and a weaker U.S. dollar, among other factors. Conversely, positioning in security & alarm services, airlines, and research & consulting services detracted from relative results. At the stock level, an underweighting in aerospace & defense stock Boeing hurt most. Shares of Boeing gained roughly 49%, mainly in the period’s first half, aided by the Trump administration’s promise to boost military spending, as well as an anticipated cash boost from December’s tax-reform package. Mostly avoiding railroad CSX (+38%) also detracted.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Fidelity® Information Technology Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Information Technology Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager Charlie Chai:  For the year, the fund returned 26.62%, trailing the 31.88% return of the MSCI U.S. IMI Information Technology 25/50 Index but topping the S&P 500® by a wide margin. Among the 11 S&P 500® sectors, technology stocks finished a close second behind consumer discretionary. Versus the MSCI sector index, stock selection in semiconductors was the fund’s biggest headwind, with our non-index stake in electric vehicle maker Tesla also significantly detracting. Tesla shares returned -24% for the year amid uncertainty about the company’s ability to hit Model 3 production targets, among other factors. Underweighting Apple (+49%) also hurt. Despite relatively flat unit sales growth, the company reported strong revenue and earnings growth, riding a higher average selling price for its smartphones. Conversely, overweighting application software and underweighting interactive media & services lifted relative performance. Our top relative contributor, Facebook (-4%), was in the latter category. We correctly underweighted the stock, as the social network platform operator was hampered by increasing regulatory scrutiny, slowing user growth and rising costs. In application software, PTC (+89%) was a standout for the fund.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Note to Shareholders:  On November 30, 2018, Ali Kahn will become sole portfolio manager for the fund, succeeding Charlie Chai.

Fidelity® Materials Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Materials Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager Richard Malnight:  For the year, the fund returned -1.66%, considerably trailing the 3.76% return of the MSCI U.S. IMI Materials 25/50 Linked Index and lagging the S&P 500® by an even wider margin. Among the 11 S&P 500® sectors, materials stocks finished near the bottom of the pack, hampered by concerns over interest rate hikes by the U.S. Federal Reserve, a flattening yield curve, softening economic data in Europe and China, and contentious U.S. trade relations with China and other nations. Versus the MSCI sector index, positioning in diversified chemicals, commodity chemicals and other chemicals segments notably weighed on fund performance. Our largest relative detractor by far was Chemours, a maker of the pigment titanium dioxide (TiO2) and the fund’s third-largest position. The stock, a sizable overweighting, returned -21% even though consensus earnings estimates for the company increased. Tronox (-43%), also a detractor, was another stock tied to the TiO2 market. Underweighting and ultimately selling Ecolab (+23%), a defensive name that outperformed, hurt as well. Conversely, not owning weak-performing index component Albemarle (-26%) was the right call and made this stock our top relative contributor. Overweighting Steel Dynamics (+33%) also helped. The fund's foreign holdings contributed overall despite the headwind of a stronger U.S. dollar.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Note to shareholders:  On November 17, 2017, Richard Malnight became sole manager of the fund, succeeding Tobias Welo.

Fidelity® Real Estate Equity Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Real Estate Equity Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager Samuel Wald:  For the fiscal year, the fund returned 3.73%, outpacing the 3.35% return of the FTSE® NAREIT® Equity REITs Index while significantly lagging the S&P 500®. Versus the FTSE NAREIT index, industry positioning added value, especially underweighting the lagging diversified category and overweighting strong-performing industrial real estate investment trusts (REITs). Security selection modestly detracted versus the FTSE NAREIT, with picks among health care, lodging/resort and diversified REITs detracting the most. Conversely, security selection among regional malls – especially not holding index component Brookfield Properties – contributed on a relative basis. Timely ownership of GGP, which we sold from the fund in May, also helped. An overweighted stake in self-storage REIT Extra Space Storage, which we sold from the fund in September, added more value than any other position. Also of note in self-storage, we added to the fund's position in Public Storage by period end, making it one of the fund's largest holdings as of September 30. In contrast, the fund's biggest individual detractor was an overweighting in health care REIT Ventas, another large fund position at the end of September. Other positions to weigh on results included shopping center REIT Urban Edge Properties and a non-REIT, out-of-benchmark holding in timeshare operator Hilton Grand Vacations.

Fidelity® Telecom Services Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Telecom Services Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager Matthew Drukker:  For the year, the fund returned 6.95%, outpacing the 4.35% gain of the MSCI U.S. IMI Telecommunication Services 25/50 Index, but lagging 17.91% result of the broad-based S&P 500® index. Stock selections primarily drove the fund’s outperformance versus the sector index, especially among integrated telecommunication services companies and alternative carriers – although an underweighting in this latter segment detracted. Underweighting two benchmark components: poor-performing mobile satellite provider Globalstar (-69%) and integrated telecom provider IDT (-45%) added particular value, as each struggled to turn a consistent profit partly due to idiosyncratic challenges. Conversely, stock selection among cable & satellite and wireless telecom services firms detracted versus the sector index. In particular, not holding wireless services provider and sector benchmark component Boingo Wireless (+62%) hurt relative performance, as this company's stock advanced on strong earnings growth.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Note to Shareholders:  Aligned with changes to the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) structure, on December 1, 2018, the fund's name will change to Fidelity Communication Services Central Fund, and its supplemental benchmark will change from the MSCI U.S. IM Telecommunication Services 25/50 Index to the MSCI U.S. IM Communication Services 25/50 Index.

Fidelity® Utilities Central Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Fidelity® Utilities Central Fund

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The S&P 500® index gained 17.91% for the year ending September 30, 2018, as the U.S. equity bellwether overcame heightened volatility early on to end the period just shy of its record closing high. In late January, stocks began a sharp retreat amid concern that rising inflation and the potential for the economy to overheat would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pick up the pace of interest rate hikes. In February, the index posted its first negative monthly result since October 2016, and then lost further ground in March on fear related to global trade. The market stabilized in April and turned upward through mid-June, when trade tension between the U.S. and China soured investor sentiment. Uncertainty lingered into July, but strong corporate earnings helped the S&P 500 rise 7.71% in the final three months of the period. For the full 12 months, growth handily topped value, extending a trend that began in early 2017. By sector, information technology (+38%) led the way amid strong earnings growth from several major index constituents. Consumer discretionary was close behind, with its 36% gain driven mainly by retailers. Health care was the only other group to top the broader market, rising 18%. Energy (+14%) moved higher alongside oil prices but nonetheless trailed the index, as did communication services (+12%). At the back of the pack were materials (+4%) and two defensive sectors that struggled amid investors’ preference for risk: utilities (+3%) and consumer staples (+3%).

Comments from Portfolio Manager Douglas Simmons:  For the year, the fund returned 12.46%, significantly outpacing the 4.35% return of its sector benchmark, the MSCI IMI U.S. Utilities 25/50 Index, but lagging the 17.91% return of the broadly based S&P 500®. Utilities performed well for much of the period, driven by their perception as being more defensive, conservative investments. Security selection largely drove the fund's outperformance of the sector index, although market selections, especially overweighting independent power producers & energy traders, also helped. Choices among electric utilities, including the fund’s sizable position in NextEra Energy (+17%) added notable value. NextEra Energy is one of the biggest investors in wind and solar project in North America, deriving roughly 40% of its electric capacity from wind and solar power generation. Elsewhere, an overweighting in independent power producers NRG Energy (+47%) and AES (+33%) contributed. Conversely, stock picks among cable & satellite companies, a group outside the sector benchmark, detracted. Most notably, the fund's stake in cable provider Comcast (-13%) dragged on the fund’s relative result, as the company's aggressive bidding for Britain's cable provider Sky weighed on Comcast's stock price.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Fidelity Consumer Discretionary Central Fund (Consumer Discretionary), Fidelity Consumer Staples Central Fund (Consumer Staples), Fidelity Energy Central Fund (Energy), Fidelity Financials Central Fund (Financials), Fidelity Health Care Central Fund (Health Care), Fidelity Industrials Central Fund (Industrials), Fidelity Information Technology Central Fund (Information Technology), Fidelity Materials Central Fund (Materials), Fidelity Real Estate Equity Central Fund (Real Estate Equity), Fidelity Telecom Services Central Fund (Telecom Services), and Fidelity Utilities Central Fund (Utilities), collectively referred to as the Funds, are funds of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC (the LLC) and are authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. In June 2018, the Board of Directors approved a change in the name of Fidelity Telecom Services Central Fund to Fidelity Communication Services Central Fund effective December 1, 2018. The LLC is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company. Shares of each Fund are only offered to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), or its affiliates (the Investing Funds). All of the Funds are non-diversified, with the exception of Financials and Health Care. The Funds invest primarily in securities of companies whose principal business activities fall within specific industries. The Funds are referred to as Fidelity Central Funds and may also invest in other Fidelity Central Funds available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates.

2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.

The Funds invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Funds' Schedules of Investments list each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of each Fund, but do not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, each Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.

The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Annualized expenses of the Money Market Central Funds as of their most recent shareholder report date are less than .005%.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds, which are not covered by the Funds' Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the SEC website or upon request.

3. Significant Accounting Policies.

Each Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investments Companies. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Funds:

Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has delegated the day to day responsibility for the valuation of each Fund's investments to the Fair Value Committee (the Committee) established by each Fund's investment adviser. In accordance with valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board, each Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing vendors or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee oversees each Fund's valuation policies and procedures and reports to the Board on the Committee's activities and fair value determinations. The Board monitors the appropriateness of the procedures used in valuing each Fund's investments and ratifies the fair value determinations of the Committee.

Each Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:

  • Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
  • Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
  • Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)

Valuation techniques used to value each Fund's investments by major category are as follows:

Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing vendor on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Utilizing these techniques may result in transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy. Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which observable inputs are not available are valued using alternate valuation approaches, including the market approach and the income approach and are categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy. The market approach generally consists of using comparable market transactions while the income approach generally consists of using the net present value of estimated future cash flows, adjusted as appropriate for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk factors.

Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.

The following provides information on Level 3 securities held by Information Technology that were valued at period end based on unobservable inputs. These amounts exclude valuations provided by a broker.

Asset Type Fair Value Valuation Technique(s) Unobservable Input Amount or Range/Weighted Average Impact to Valuation from an Increase in Input(a) 
Equities  $ 61,229,798 Market approach Transaction price  $5.61 - $48.77 / $32.97 Increase 
   Discount for lack of marketability 20.0% Decrease 
  Recovery value Recovery value 0.0% Increase 

 (a) Represents the expected directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that would result from an increase in the corresponding input. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of September 30, 2018, as well as a roll forward of Level 3 investments, is included in each applicable Fund's Schedule of Investments.

Foreign Currency. The Funds may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds' investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and for certain Funds include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Funds represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Funds determine the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. During the period, dividend income has been reduced $866,762 for Telecom Services, with a corresponding increase to net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as a result of a change in the prior period estimate, which had no impact on the total net assets or total return of the Fund. Large, non-recurring dividends recognized by the Funds are presented separately on the Statement of Operations as "Non-Cash Dividends" or "Special Dividends" and the impact of these dividends is presented in the Financial Highlights. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.

Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of September 30, 2018, each Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is each Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Each Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. Each Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. Foreign taxes are provided for based on each Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. Energy is subject to a tax imposed on capital gains by certain countries in which it invests. An estimated deferred tax liability for net unrealized appreciation on the applicable securities is included in Other payables and accrued expenses on the Statement of Assets & Liabilities.

Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences resulted in distribution reclassifications for certain funds. In addition, certain Funds claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.

Book-tax differences are primarily due to the short-term gain distributions from the Underlying Funds, foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), certain foreign taxes, partnerships, redemptions in kind, and certain deemed distributions and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows for each Fund:

Capital loss carryforwards are only available to offset future capital gains of the Funds to the extent provided by regulations and may be limited. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the Act), the Funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period and such capital losses are required to be used prior to any losses that expire.

6. Security Lending.

Certain Funds lend portfolio securities through a lending agent from time to time in order to earn additional income. For equity securities, a lending agent is used and may loan securities to certain qualified borrowers, including Fidelity Capital Markets (FCM), a broker-dealer affiliated with the Funds. On the settlement date of the loan, each applicable Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Funds and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. The Funds or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, the Funds may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. The Funds may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on each applicable Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented on each applicable Fund's Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. FCM security lending activity was as follows:

 Security Lending Income From Securities Loaned to FCM Value of Securities Loaned to FCM at Period End

8. Other.

The Funds' organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Funds. In the normal course of business, the Funds may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Funds.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC and the Shareholders of Fidelity Consumer Discretionary Central Fund, Fidelity Consumer Staples Central Fund, Fidelity Energy Central Fund, Fidelity Financials Central Fund, Fidelity Health Care Central Fund, Fidelity Industrials Central Fund, Fidelity Information Technology Central Fund, Fidelity Materials Central Fund, Fidelity Real Estate Equity Central Fund, Fidelity Telecom Services Central Fund and Fidelity Utilities Central Fund:

Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Consumer Discretionary Central Fund, Fidelity Consumer Staples Central Fund, Fidelity Energy Central Fund, Fidelity Financials Central Fund, Fidelity Health Care Central Fund, Fidelity Industrials Central Fund, Fidelity Information Technology Central Fund, Fidelity Materials Central Fund, Fidelity Real Estate Equity Central Fund, Fidelity Telecom Services Central Fund and Fidelity Utilities Central Fund (the "Funds"), each a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC, including the schedules of investments, as of September 30, 2018, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of September 30, 2018, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2018, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more of the Fidelity investment companies since 1999.

Directors and Officers (Trustees and Officers)

The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC and funds, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs each fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee each fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to each fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review each fund's performance.  Except for Michael E. Wiley, each of the Trustees oversees 283 funds. Mr. Wiley oversees 193 funds. 

The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust.  Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the funds is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee.  Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs.  The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees.  Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years. 

Each fund’s Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.

Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees. The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.

In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing each fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the funds, is provided below.

Board Structure and Oversight Function. James C. Curvey is an interested person and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chairman, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chairman and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. Ned C. Lautenbach serves as Chairman of the Independent Trustees and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.

Fidelity® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds' Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity® funds overseen by the funds' Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity® funds overseen by each Board.

The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds' activities and associated risks.  The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds' business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above.  Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds' exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees.  While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds' activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees.  In addition, the Independent Trustees have worked with Fidelity to enhance the Board's oversight of investment and financial risks, legal and regulatory risks, technology risks, and operational risks, including the development of additional risk reporting to the Board.  Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds' Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds' Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity® funds.  The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

Actual Expenses

The first line of the accompanying table for each fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. In addition, each Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the accompanying table for each fund 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 the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. In addition, each Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

At its July 2018 meeting, the Board of Directors, including the Independent Directors (together, the Board), voted to continue the management contracts with FMR Co., Inc. (FMRC) and the sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the funds for six months through January 31, 2019, in connection with the reunification of the Fidelity Equity High Income Funds Board, which oversees the funds, and the Sector Portfolios Board.

The Board considered that the approval of the funds' Advisory Contracts will not result in any changes in (i) the investment process or strategies employed in the management of the funds' assets; (ii) the fees and expenses paid by shareholders; (iii) the nature, extent or quality of services provided under the funds' Advisory Contracts; or (iv) the day-to-day management of each fund or the persons primarily responsible for such management. The Board concluded that the funds' Advisory Contracts are fair and reasonable, and that the funds' Advisory Contracts should be renewed, without modification, through January 31, 2019, with the understanding that the Board will consider the annual renewal for a full one year period in January 2019.

In connection with its consideration of future renewals of the funds' Advisory Contracts, the Board will consider: (i) the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the funds, including shareholder and administrative services and investment performance; (ii) the competitiveness of the management fee and total expenses for each fund; (iii) the costs of the services and profitability, including the revenues earned and the expenses incurred in conducting the business of developing, marketing, distributing, managing, administering, and servicing each fund and its shareholders, to the extent applicable, as well as potential fall-out benefits from Fidelity's non-fund businesses; and (iv) whether there have been economies of scale in respect of the Fidelity funds, whether the Fidelity funds (including the funds) have appropriately benefited from any such economies of scale, and whether there is the potential for realization of any further economies.

Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board ultimately concluded that the funds' management fee structures are fair and reasonable, and that the continuation of the funds' Advisory Contracts should be approved.

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The MSCI ACWI (All Country World Index) ex USA Index gained 1.94% for the 12 months ending September 30, 2018. Global economic growth became somewhat less synchronous due to escalating trade conflicts, as well as concerns about inflation, decelerating manufacturing activity, the strength of the U.S. dollar and signs of more-mature expansion in some key regions, particularly later in the period. For the full 12 months, Japan gained about 11%, outperforming the rest of the Asia-Pacific region (+4%). Crude-oil commodity-price strength provided support for Canada (+3%). Europe and emerging markets each turned in a modestly negative result, with the latter category hampered by currency headwinds that weighed heavily on Argentina and Turkey. From a sector perspective, 6 of 11 groups advanced. Energy (+19%) led the way amid higher crude prices, largely driven by declining global inventories as demand outpaced supply. Health care (+8%) and materials (+6%) also topped the broader market, as did information technology (+5%). Conversely, notable laggards included some defensive, yield-oriented segments of the market, such as real estate (-2%) and utilities (-1%), that were held back by rising interest rates. The newly reconstituted communication services sector returned -4%, while financials (-2%) and consumer discretionary (-1%) also lost ground.

Comments from Portfolio Manager Steven Kaye:  For the year, the fund gained 2.30%, trailing the 2.90% return of its benchmark, the MSCI World ex US Index.Versus the benchmark, security selection hurt, especially within communication services and consumer staples. Market allocations detracted to a lesser degree. Geographically, picks in the U.K. and Australia hurt notably, as did non-benchmark holdings in the U.S., including advertising and marketing firm MDC Partners. The stock fell the most in May, after the firm announced it was unlikely to hit its goal of increasing organic growth by 4% in 2018. Overweightings in French manufacturing firm Saint-Gobain and U.K.-based British American Tobacco also detracted. Conversely, choices in Europe ex U.K. added value. Among individual stocks, shares of Japan-based staffing firm Recruit contributed more than any other fund position, benefiting from strong revenue and its June acquisition of salaries and jobs website Glassdoor.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Notes to shareholders:  On November 1, 2018, Faris Rahman, Allyson Ke and Jennifer Moon all became Co-Managers for the fund. Grace Anne-Wood is no longer a Co-Manager for the fund. Effective August 29, 2018: John McHale is no longer a Co-Manager for the fund. On July 31, 2018, Nathan Strik assumed co-management responsibilities for the fund, succeeding Ashley Fernandes. Effective June 30, 2018: Sumit Mehra is no longer a Co-Manager for the fund. On October 31, 2017, Masaki Nakamura and Guillermo de las Casas assumed co-management responsibilities, succeeding Andrew Sergeant.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended September 30, 2018

1. Organization.

Fidelity International Equity Central Fund (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC (the LLC) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Shares of the Fund are only offered to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), or its affiliates (the Investing Funds). The LLC is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company.

2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.

The Fund invests in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.

The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Annualized expenses of the Money Market Central Funds as of their most recent shareholder report date are less than .005%.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds, which are not covered by the Fund's Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the SEC website or upon request.

3. Significant Accounting Policies.

The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investments Companies. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:

Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has delegated the day to day responsibility for the valuation of the Fund's investments to the Fair Value Committee (the Committee) established by the Fund's investment adviser. In accordance with valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing vendors or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee oversees the Fund's valuation policies and procedures and reports to the Board on the Committee's activities and fair value determinations. The Board monitors the appropriateness of the procedures used in valuing the Fund's investments and ratifies the fair value determinations of the Committee.

The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:

  • Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
  • Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
  • Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)

Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:

Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing vendor on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Utilizing these techniques may result in transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.

Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing vendors or from brokers who make markets in such securities. U.S. government and government agency obligations are valued by pricing vendors who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing vendors. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances.

Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of September 30, 2018, including information on transfers between Levels 1 and 2 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

Foreign Currency. The Fund may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.

Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of September 30, 2018, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. The Fund is subject to a tax imposed on capital gains by certain countries in which it invests. An estimated deferred tax liability for net unrealized appreciation on the applicable securities is included in Other payables and accrued expenses on the Statement of Assets & Liabilities.

Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.

Book-tax differences are primarily due to futures contracts, foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), partnership and losses deferred due to wash sales.

As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Gross unrealized appreciation $429,580,431 
Gross unrealized depreciation (140,650,270) 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) $288,930,161 
Tax Cost $2,352,198,772 

The tax-based components of distributable earnings as of period end were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income $14,248,319 
Undistributed long-term capital gain $101,823,301 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities and other investments $288,798,928 

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

 September 30, 2018 September 30, 2017 
Ordinary Income $135,740,362 $ 65,151,656 
Long-term Capital Gains 31,997,698 – 
Total $167,738,060 $ 65,151,656 

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. During the period, the Fund transacted in securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Derivative Instruments.

Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Fund's investment objective allows the Fund to enter into various types of derivative contracts, including futures contracts. Derivatives are investments whose value is primarily derived from underlying assets, indices or reference rates and may be transacted on an exchange or over-the-counter (OTC). Derivatives may involve a future commitment to buy or sell a specified asset based on specified terms, to exchange future cash flows at periodic intervals based on a notional principal amount, or for one party to make one or more payments upon the occurrence of specified events in exchange for periodic payments from the other party.

The Fund used derivatives to increase returns and to manage exposure to certain risks as defined below. The success of any strategy involving derivatives depends on analysis of numerous economic factors, and if the strategies for investment do not work as intended, the Fund may not achieve its objectives.

The Fund's use of derivatives increased or decreased its exposure to the following risk:

Equity Risk Equity risk relates to the fluctuations in the value of financial instruments as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign exchange risk), whether caused by factors specific to an individual investment, its issuer, or all factors affecting all instruments traded in a market or market segment.
 

The Fund is also exposed to additional risks from investing in derivatives, such as liquidity risk and counterparty credit risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Fund will be unable to close out the derivative in the open market in a timely manner. Counterparty credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will not be able to fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Counterparty credit risk related to exchange-traded futures contracts may be mitigated by the protection provided by the exchange on which they trade.

Investing in derivatives may involve greater risks than investing in the underlying assets directly and, to varying degrees, may involve risk of loss in excess of any initial investment and collateral received and amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, there may be the risk that the change in value of the derivative contract does not correspond to the change in value of the underlying instrument.

Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a specified underlying instrument for a fixed price at a specified future date. The Fund used futures contracts to manage its exposure to the stock market.

Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) with a clearing broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the face value of the contract. Futures contracts are marked-to-market daily and subsequent daily payments (variation margin) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contracts and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or (depreciation). This receivable and/or payable, if any, is included in daily variation margin on futures contracts in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gain or (loss) is recorded upon the expiration or closing of a futures contract. The net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts during the period is presented in the Statement of Operations.

Any open futures contracts at period end are presented in the Schedule of Investments under the caption "Futures Contracts". The notional amount at value reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument or index at period end. Securities deposited to meet initial margin requirements are identified in the Schedule of Investments.

5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $1,498,548,521 and $1,901,786,438, respectively.

6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee and Expense Contract. FMR Co., Inc. (the investment adviser), an affiliate of FMR, provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract with the investment adviser, FMR pays the investment adviser a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, FMR also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Directors, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.

Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. Brokerage commissions are included in net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statement of Operations. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $8,915 for the period.

Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with FMR or other affiliated entities of FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the funds to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating affiliated funds. At period end, there were no interfund loans outstanding. The Fund's activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:

Borrower or Lender Average Loan Balance Weighted Average Interest Rate Interest Expense 
Borrower $34,950,000 1.62% $1,573 

Interfund Trades. The Fund may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note.

7. Security Lending.

The Fund lends portfolio securities through a lending agent from time to time in order to earn additional income. For equity securities, a lending agent is used and may loan securities to certain qualified borrowers, including Fidelity Capital Markets (FCM), a broker-dealer affiliated with the Fund. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. The Fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, the Fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. The Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Total security lending income during the period amounted to $849,120. During the period, there were no securities loaned to FCM.

8. Other.

The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity International Equity Central Fund (the "Fund"), a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC, including the schedule of investments, as of September 30, 2018, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of September 30, 2018, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2018, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Directors and Officers (Trustees and Officers)

The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the Fidelity Central Investments Portfolios LLC and fund, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs the fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee the fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review the fund's performance.  Except for Michael E. Wiley, each of the Trustees oversees 283 funds. Michael E. Wiley oversees 193 funds. 

The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust.  Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the fund is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee.  Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs.  The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees.  Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years. 

The fund’s Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.

Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees. The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.

In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing the fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the fund, is provided below.

Board Structure and Oversight Function. James C. Curvey is an interested person and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the fund. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chairman, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chairman and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. Ned C. Lautenbach serves as Chairman of the Independent Trustees and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.

Fidelity® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The fund's Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity® funds overseen by the fund's Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity® funds overseen by each Board.

The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the fund's activities and associated risks.  The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the fund's business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above.  Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the fund are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the fund's exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees.  While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the fund's activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees.  In addition, the Independent Trustees have worked with Fidelity to enhance the Board's oversight of investment and financial risks, legal and regulatory risks, technology risks, and operational risks, including the development of additional risk reporting to the Board.  Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the fund's Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the fund's Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity® funds.  The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (April 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018).

Actual Expenses

The first line of the accompanying table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Hypothetical-C  $1,000.00 $1,025.01 $.06 

 A Annualized expense ratio reflects expenses net of applicable fee waivers.

 B Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 183/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

 C 5% return per year before expenses

Distributions (Unaudited)

The fund hereby designates as a capital gain dividend with respect to the taxable year ended September 30, 2018, $ 115,258,613, or, if subsequently determined to be different, the net capital gain of such year.

The fund will notify shareholders in January 2019 of amounts for use in preparing 2018 income tax returns.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts

Fidelity International Equity Central Fund

At its July 2018 meeting, the Board of Directors, including the Independent Directors (together, the Board), voted to continue the management contract with FMR Co., Inc. (FMRC) and the sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund for six months through January 31, 2019, in connection with the reunification of the Fidelity Equity High Income Funds Board, which oversees the fund, and the Sector Portfolios Board.

The Board considered that the approval of the fund's Advisory Contracts will not result in any changes in (i) the investment process or strategies employed in the management of the fund's assets; (ii) the fees and expenses paid by shareholders; (iii) the nature, extent or quality of services provided under the fund's Advisory Contracts; or (iv) the day-to-day management of the fund or the persons primarily responsible for such management. The Board concluded that the fund's Advisory Contracts are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed, without modification, through January 31, 2019, with the understanding that the Board will consider the annual renewal for a full one year period in January 2019.

In connection with its consideration of future renewals of the fund's Advisory Contracts, the Board will consider: (i) the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the fund, including shareholder and administrative services and investment performance; (ii) the competitiveness of the management fee and total expenses for the fund; (iii) the costs of the services and profitability, including the revenues earned and the expenses incurred in conducting the business of developing, marketing, distributing, managing, administering, and servicing the fund and its shareholders, to the extent applicable, as well as potential fall-out benefits from Fidelity's non-fund businesses; and (iv) whether there have been economies of scale in respect of the Fidelity funds, whether the Fidelity funds (including the fund) have appropriately benefited from any such economies of scale, and whether there is the potential for realization of any further economies.

Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board ultimately concluded that the fund's management fee structure is fair and reasonable, and that the continuation of the fund's Advisory Contracts should be approved.

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  The MSCI ACWI (All Country World Index) ex USA Index gained 1.94% for the 12 months ending September 30, 2018. Global economic growth became somewhat less synchronous due to escalating trade conflicts, as well as concerns about inflation, decelerating manufacturing activity, the strength of the U.S. dollar and signs of more-mature expansion in some key regions, particularly later in the period. For the full 12 months, Japan gained about 11%, outperforming the rest of the Asia-Pacific region (+4%). Crude-oil commodity-price strength provided support for Canada (+3%). Europe and emerging markets each turned in a modestly negative result, with the latter category hampered by currency headwinds that weighed heavily on Argentina and Turkey. From a sector perspective, 6 of 11 groups advanced. Energy (+19%) led the way amid higher crude prices, largely driven by declining global inventories as demand outpaced supply. Health care (+8%) and materials (+6%) also topped the broader market, as did information technology (+5%). Conversely, notable laggards included some defensive, yield-oriented segments of the market, such as real estate (-2%) and utilities (-1%), that were held back by rising interest rates. The newly reconstituted communication services sector returned -4%, while financials (-2%) and consumer discretionary (-1%) also lost ground.

Comments from Co-Portfolio Manager Sam Polyak:  For the year, the fund returned -4.20%, trailing the -0.78% result of the benchmark MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Stock selection hurt the fund’s relative performance, particularly within communication services and financials. Market selection detracted to a lesser extent. An overweighting in China Literature, a new position this period, detracted more than any other individual holding. Shares of the online reading and writing platform fell in August after the firm reported a decline in monthly paying users from a year ago. Other detractors included China’s e-commerce firm JD.com and Taiwan-based Largan Precision, a major supplier of smartphone camera lenses. Conversely, an average overweighting in Taiwan’s GlobalWafers contributed versus the benchmark, driven partly by a key acquisition. We sold the fund’s stake in Global Wafers by period end.

The views expressed above reflect those of the portfolio manager(s) only through the end of the period as stated on the cover of this report and do not necessarily represent the views of Fidelity or any other person in the Fidelity organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and Fidelity disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fidelity fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Fidelity fund.

Notes to shareholders:  On December 1, 2017, Fidelity added a dedicated frontier-markets subportfolio to the fund, representing 5% of assets, and adopted a supplemental benchmark that incorporates the broader exposure. There are no changes to the fund’s primary benchmark or investment policies. Adam Kutas became Co-Manager of the fund and assumed responsibility for the new subportfolio. On June 30, 2018, Jane Wu joined the team as a Co-Manager, while Tim Gannon stepped down from the fund.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended September 30, 2018

1. Organization.

Fidelity Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC (the LLC) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Shares of the Fund are only offered to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), or its affiliates (the Investing Funds). The LLC is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company. The Fund's investments in emerging markets can be subject to social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile.

2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.

The Fund may invests in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.

The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Annualized expenses of the Money Market Central Funds as of their most recent shareholder report date are less than .005%.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds, which are not covered by the Fund's Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the SEC website or upon request.

3. Significant Accounting Policies.

The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investments Companies. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:

Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has delegated the day to day responsibility for the valuation of the Fund's investments to the Fair Value Committee (the Committee) established by the Fund's investment adviser. In accordance with valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing vendors or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee oversees the Fund's valuation policies and procedures and reports to the Board on the Committee's activities and fair value determinations. The Board monitors the appropriateness of the procedures used in valuing the Fund's investments and ratifies the fair value determinations of the Committee.

The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:

  • Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
  • Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
  • Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)

Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:

Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing vendor on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Utilizing these techniques may result in transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.

Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing vendors or from brokers who make markets in such securities. U.S. government and government agency obligations are valued by pricing vendors who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing vendors. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances.

Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of September 30, 2018, including information on transfers between Levels 1 and 2, is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

Foreign Currency. The Fund may use foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Gains and losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.

Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of September 30, 2018, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. The Fund is subject to a tax imposed on capital gains by certain countries in which it invests.

Distributions are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.

Book-tax differences are primarily due to futures contracts, foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Gross unrealized appreciation $120,775,646 
Gross unrealized depreciation (53,640,312) 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) $67,135,334 
Tax Cost $596,942,685 

The tax-based components of distributable earnings as of period end were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income $1,675,398 
Undistributed long-term capital gain $43,677,567 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities and other investments $67,006,250 

The Fund intends to elect to defer to its next fiscal year $609,449 of capital losses recognized during the period November 1, 2017 to September 30, 2018.

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

 September 30, 2018 September 30, 2017 
Ordinary Income $33,187,685 $ 11,589,726 
Long-term Capital Gains 19,602,542 1,712,281 
Total $52,790,227 $ 13,302,007 

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Derivative Instruments.

Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Fund's investment objective allows the Fund to enter into various types of derivative contracts, including futures contracts. Derivatives are investments whose value is primarily derived from underlying assets, indices or reference rates and may be transacted on an exchange or over-the-counter (OTC). Derivatives may involve a future commitment to buy or sell a specified asset based on specified terms, to exchange future cash flows at periodic intervals based on a notional principal amount, or for one party to make one or more payments upon the occurrence of specified events in exchange for periodic payments from the other party.

The Fund used derivatives to increase returns and to manage exposure to certain risks as defined below. The success of any strategy involving derivatives depends on analysis of numerous economic factors, and if the strategies for investment do not work as intended, the Fund may not achieve its objectives.

The Fund's use of derivatives increased or decreased its exposure to the following risk:

Equity Risk Equity risk relates to the fluctuations in the value of financial instruments as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign exchange risk), whether caused by factors specific to an individual investment, its issuer, or all factors affecting all instruments traded in a market or market segment.
 

The Fund is also exposed to additional risks from investing in derivatives, such as liquidity risk and counterparty credit risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Fund will be unable to close out the derivative in the open market in a timely manner. Counterparty credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will not be able to fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Counterparty credit risk related to exchange-traded futures contracts may be mitigated by the protection provided by the exchange on which they trade.

Investing in derivatives may involve greater risks than investing in the underlying assets directly and, to varying degrees, may involve risk of loss in excess of any initial investment and collateral received and amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, there may be the risk that the change in value of the derivative contract does not correspond to the change in value of the underlying instrument.

Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a specified underlying instrument for a fixed price at a specified future date. The Fund used futures contracts to manage its exposure to the stock market.

Upon entering into a futures contract, a fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) with a clearing broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the face value of the contract. Futures contracts are marked-to-market daily and subsequent daily payments (variation margin) are made or received by a fund depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the futures contracts and are recorded as unrealized appreciation or (depreciation). This receivable and/or payable, if any, is included in daily variation margin on futures contracts in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gain or (loss) is recorded upon the expiration or closing of a futures contract. The net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts during the period is presented in the Statement of Operations.

Any open futures contracts at period end are presented in the Schedule of Investments under the caption "Futures Contracts". The notional amount at value reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument or index at period end and is representative of volume of activity during the period. Securities deposited to meet initial margin requirements are identified in the Schedule of Investments.

5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $470,223,940 and $528,606,128, respectively.

6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee and Expense Contract. FMR Co., Inc. (the investment adviser), an affiliate of FMR, provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract with the investment adviser, FMR pays the investment adviser a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, FMR also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Directors, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.

Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. Brokerage commissions are included in net realized gain (loss) and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statement of Operations. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $5,008 for the period.

Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with FMR or other affiliated entities of FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the funds to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating affiliated funds. At period end, there were no interfund loans outstanding. The Fund's activity in this program during the period for which loans were outstanding was as follows:

Borrower or Lender Average Loan Balance Weighted Average Interest Rate Interest Expense 
Borrower $10,140,000 1.62% $1,828 

Interfund Trades. The Fund may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note.

Other. During the period, the investment adviser reimbursed the Fund for certain losses in the amount of $4,860.

7. Security Lending.

The Fund lends portfolio securities through a lending agent from time to time in order to earn additional income. For equity securities, a lending agent is used and may loan securities to certain qualified borrowers, including Fidelity Capital Markets (FCM), a broker-dealer affiliated with the Fund. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. The Fund or borrower may terminate the loan at any time, and if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, the Fund may apply collateral received from the borrower against the obligation. The Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less rebates paid to borrowers and any lending agent fees associated with the loan, plus any premium payments received for lending certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Total security lending income during the period amounted to $67,925.

The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC and Shareholders of Fidelity Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund:

Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund (the "Fund"), a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC, including the schedule of investments, as of September 30, 2018, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of September 30, 2018, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2018, by correspondence with the custodians and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Directors and Officers (Trustees and Officers)

The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC and fund, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs the fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee the fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review the fund's performance.  Except for Michael E. Wiley, each of the Trustees oversees 283 funds. Michael E. Wiley oversees 193 funds. 

The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust.  Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the fund is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee.  Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs.  The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees.  Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years. 

The fund’s Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.

Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees. The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.

In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing the fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the fund, is provided below.

Board Structure and Oversight Function. James C. Curvey is an interested person and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the fund. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chairman, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chairman and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. Ned C. Lautenbach serves as Chairman of the Independent Trustees and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.

Fidelity® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The fund's Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity® funds overseen by the fund's Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity® funds overseen by each Board.

The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the fund's activities and associated risks.  The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the fund's business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above.  Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the fund are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the fund's exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees.  While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the fund's activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees.  In addition, the Independent Trustees have worked with Fidelity to enhance the Board's oversight of investment and financial risks, legal and regulatory risks, technology risks, and operational risks, including the development of additional risk reporting to the Board.  Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the fund's Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the fund's Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity® funds.  The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (April 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018).

Actual Expenses

The first line of the accompanying table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

 Annualized Expense Ratio-A Beginning

Hypothetical-C  $1,000.00 $1,024.69 $.38 

 A Annualized expense ratio reflects expenses net of applicable fee waivers.

 B Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 183/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

 C 5% return per year before expenses

Distributions (Unaudited)

The fund hereby designates as a capital gain dividend with respect to the taxable year ended September 30, 2018, $52,764,368, or, if subsequently determined to be different, the net capital gain of such year.

A percentage of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year for the fund may be taken into account as a dividend for purposes of the maximum rate under section 1(h)(11) of the Internal Revenue Code:

  
December 2017 12% 
February 2018 77% 
March 2018 77% 
April 2018 77% 
May 2018 77% 
June 2018 77% 
July 2018 77% 
August 2018 77% 
September 2018 77% 

The amounts per share which represent income derived from sources within, and taxes paid to, foreign countries or possessions of the United States are $4.2031 and $0.4434 for the dividend paid December 21, 2017.

The fund will notify shareholders in January 2019 of amounts for use in preparing 2018 income tax returns.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts

Fidelity Emerging Markets Equity Central Fund

At its July 2018 meeting, the Board of Directors, including the Independent Directors (together, the Board), voted to continue the management contract with FMR Co., Inc. (FMRC) and the sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund for six months through January 31, 2019, in connection with the reunification of the Fidelity Equity High Income Funds Board, which oversees the fund, and the Sector Portfolios Board.

The Board considered that the approval of the fund's Advisory Contracts will not result in any changes in (i) the investment process or strategies employed in the management of the fund's assets; (ii) the fees and expenses paid by shareholders; (iii) the nature, extent or quality of services provided under the fund's Advisory Contracts; or (iv) the day-to-day management of the fund or the persons primarily responsible for such management. The Board concluded that the fund's Advisory Contracts are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed, without modification, through January 31, 2019, with the understanding that the Board will consider the annual renewal for a full one year period in January 2019.

In connection with its consideration of future renewals of the fund's Advisory Contracts, the Board will consider: (i) the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the fund, including shareholder and administrative services and investment performance; (ii) the competitiveness of the management fee and total expenses for the fund; (iii) the costs of the services and profitability, including the revenues earned and the expenses incurred in conducting the business of developing, marketing, distributing, managing, administering, and servicing the fund and its shareholders, to the extent applicable, as well as potential fall-out benefits from Fidelity's non-fund businesses; and (iv) whether there have been economies of scale in respect of the Fidelity funds, whether the Fidelity funds (including the fund) have appropriately benefited from any such economies of scale, and whether there is the potential for realization of any further economies.

Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board ultimately concluded that the fund's management fee structure is fair and reasonable, and that the continuation of the fund's Advisory Contracts should be approved.

Performance: The Bottom Line

Average annual total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of distributions from dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value, if any) and assuming a constant rate of performance each year. The hypothetical investment and the average annual total returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. During periods of reimbursement by Fidelity, a fund’s total return will be greater than it would be had the reimbursement not occurred. How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

Market Recap:  Floating-rate bank loans gained 5.47% for the 12 months ending September 30, 2018, as measured by the S&P/LSTA® Leveraged Performing Loan Index, topping both high-yield bonds and the broad investment-grade fixed-income market. Loans generated positive results in the early months of the period, as investors refocused their attention on interest rate risk amid rising U.S. Treasury yields. The asset class was relatively immune to the volatility that hampered stocks and credit in February and March, posting modestly positive returns in both months. Loan prices rose in the first half of April, then gave back some of that advance, as rising interest rates began to weigh on investor risk appetite. Following modest returns in May and June amid concerns about global trade, loans rode strong corporate earnings and robust second-quarter U.S. economic growth to a 1.90% gain for the final three months of the period. Every industry in the index generated a positive result, with retailers (+10%), oil & gas (+8%), and radio & television (+8%) leading the way. On the downside, among larger index members, cable & satellite television, containers & glass products, and aerospace & defense each returned about 4%, but lagged the overall market. From a credit-quality perspective, lower-quality loans did best, reflecting investor confidence amid the solid fundamental backdrop

Comments from Co-Portfolio Managers Eric Mollenhauer and Kevin Nielsen:  For the fiscal year, the fund gained 5.65%, outpacing the benchmark S&P/LSTA® Leveraged Performing Loan Index. Security selection in business equipment & services, along with favorable positioning in oil & gas, provided the biggest boost versus the benchmark the past 12 months. Among the fund's the top individual relative contributors were overweightings in outdoor retailer Bass Pro Shops and oil & gas exploration & production company California Resources. Avoiding Catalina Marketing Group, a benchmark constituent that produces grocery store coupons, was another positive, as was our non-benchmark equity position in coal producer Warrior Metropolitan Coal, Inc. On the downside, a cash stake of about 6%, on average, the past 12 months was the biggest detractor versus the benchmark, although it was within our target range of 5% to 7%. As for individual holdings, an overweighting in generic-drug maker Lannett Company disappointed when the company announced that it will lose a key supply contract in 2019. A mid-March bankruptcy filing by Clear Channel Communications, now called iHeartMedia, hampered our investment there. Not owning loans issued by retailer and benchmark member Neiman Marcus also dampened relative performance. As of September 30, we think the fundamental backdrop for loans remains supportive, despite global trade and political tension.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended September 30, 2018

1. Organization.

Fidelity Floating Rate Central Fund (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC (the LLC) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. Shares of the Fund are only offered to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), or its affiliates (the Investing Funds). The LLC is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company.

2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.

The Fund invests in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies generally available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.

The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of the investment adviser. Annualized expenses of the Money Market Central Funds as of their most recent shareholder report date are less than .005%.

A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds, which are not covered by the Fund's Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, are available on the SEC website or upon request.

3. Significant Accounting Policies.

The Fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investments Companies. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:

Investment Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Board of Directors (the Board) has delegated the day to day responsibility for the valuation of the Fund's investments to the Fair Value Committee (the Committee) established by the Fund's investment adviser. In accordance with valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board, the Fund attempts to obtain prices from one or more third party pricing vendors or brokers to value its investments. When current market prices, quotations or currency exchange rates are not readily available or reliable, investments will be fair valued in good faith by the Committee, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and they may be utilized to a significant extent. The Committee oversees the Fund's valuation policies and procedures and reports to the Board on the Committee's activities and fair value determinations. The Board monitors the appropriateness of the procedures used in valuing the Fund's investments and ratifies the fair value determinations of the Committee.

The Fund categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value its investments into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three levels as shown below:

  • Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
  • Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, etc.)
  • Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available)

Valuation techniques used to value the Fund's investments by major category are as follows:

Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated prices received from third party pricing vendors or from brokers who make markets in such securities. Corporate bonds and bank loan obligations are valued by pricing vendors who utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type or by broker-supplied prices. When independent prices are unavailable or unreliable, debt securities may be valued utilizing pricing methodologies which consider similar factors that would be used by third party pricing vendors. Debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy but may be Level 3 depending on the circumstances. The Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in below investment grade securities. The value of these securities can be more volatile due to changes in the credit quality of the issuer and is sensitive to changes in economic, market and regulatory conditions.

Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by a third party pricing vendor on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. For foreign equity securities, when market or security specific events arise, comparisons to the valuation of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), futures contracts, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and certain indexes as well as quoted prices for similar securities may be used and would be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Utilizing these techniques may result in transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities may be categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.

Investments in open-end mutual funds, including other Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value (NAV) each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The aggregate value of investments by input level as of September 30, 2018 is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Income and capital gain distributions from Fidelity Central Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain distributions received by the Fund represent a return of capital or capital gain. The Fund determines the components of these distributions subsequent to the ex-dividend date, based upon receipt of tax filings or other correspondence relating to the underlying investment. These distributions are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. Interest income is accrued as earned and includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities as applicable. Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is reasonably assured. The Fund earns certain fees in connection with its floating rate loan purchasing activities. These fees are in addition to interest payments earned and may include amendment fees, consent fees and prepayment fees. These fees are recorded as Interest in the accompanying financial statements.

Expenses. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses attributable to more than one fund are allocated among the respective funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, including distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains. As a result, no provision for U.S. Federal income taxes is required. As of September 30, 2018, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements; nor is the Fund aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund files a U.S. federal tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund's federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.

Distributions are declared and recorded daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are declared and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Capital accounts are not adjusted for temporary book-tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.

Book-tax differences are primarily due to capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales.

As of period end, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in securities, and derivatives if applicable, for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Gross unrealized appreciation $22,614,127 
Gross unrealized depreciation (24,057,889) 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) $(1,443,762) 
Tax Cost $2,320,054,210 

The tax-based components of distributable earnings as of period end were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income $1,735,079 
Capital loss carryforward $(4,438,277) 
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities and other investments $(1,443,762) 

Capital loss carryforwards are only available to offset future capital gains of the Fund to the extent provided by regulations and may be limited. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the Act), the Fund is permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period and such capital losses are required to be used prior to any losses that expire. The capital loss carryforward information presented below, including any applicable limitation, is estimated as of fiscal period end and is subject to adjustment.

No expiration  
Long-term $(4,438,277) 
Total capital loss carryforward $(4,438,277) 

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

 September 30, 2018 September 30, 2017 
Ordinary Income $111,877,345 $ 81,873,496 
Long-term Capital Gains 1,227,198 355,890 
Total $113,104,543 $ 82,229,386 

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

Loans and Other Direct Debt Instruments. The Fund invests in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owed to lenders by corporate or other borrowers. These instruments may be in the form of loans, trade claims or other receivables and may include standby financing commitments such as revolving credit facilities that obligate the Fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Loans may be acquired through assignment or participation. The Fund did not have any unfunded loan commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding, at period end.

New Accounting Pronouncement. In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU), ASU 2017-08, which amends the amortization period for certain callable debt securities that are held at a premium. The amendment requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of these changes to the financial statements.

4. Purchase and Sales of Investments.

Purchases and sales of securities (including principal repayments of bank loan obligations), other than short-term securities, aggregated $1,619,074,168 and $938,419,735, respectively.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee and Expense Contract. FMR Co., Inc. (the investment adviser), an affiliate of FMR, provides the Fund with investment management services. The Fund does not pay any fees for these services. Pursuant to the Fund's management contract with the investment adviser, FMR pays the investment adviser a portion of the management fees it receives from the Investing Funds. In addition, under an expense contract, FMR also pays all other expenses of the Fund, excluding custody fees, the compensation of the independent Directors, and certain miscellaneous expenses such as proxy and shareholder meeting expenses.

Interfund Trades. The Fund may purchase from or sell securities to other Fidelity Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Interfund trades are included within the respective purchases and sales amounts shown in the Purchases and Sales of Investments note.

Other. During the period, the investment adviser reimbursed the Fund for certain losses in the amount of $3,420.

6. Expense Reductions.

Through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of certain uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the Fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the Fund's custody expenses by $33,473.

7. Other.

The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current directors and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

At the end of the period, mutual funds managed by FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of all of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

8. Litigation.

The Fund and other entities managed by FMR or its affiliates were named as defendants in a lawsuit filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York in 2009. The lawsuit was brought by creditors of Motors Liquidation Company (f/k/a General Motors), which went through Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings in 2009, and is captioned Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Motors Liquidation Company v. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., et al., Adversary No. 09-00504 (REG). The plaintiffs are seeking an order that the Fund and other defendants return proceeds received in 2009 in full payment of the principal and interest on General Motors secured debt. The plaintiffs contend that the Fund and the other defendants were not secured creditors at the time of the 2009 payments and, thus, were not entitled to payment in full. In January 2015, the Court of Appeals ruled that JPMorgan, as administrative agent for all of the debtholders, released the security interest on certain collateral securing the debt prior to the 2009 payments. In September 2017, an opinion was issued in a trial intended to help determine the value of any remaining, unreleased collateral. The parties have engaged in mediation but continue to disagree on the value of the unreleased collateral. At this time, Management cannot determine the amount of loss that may be realized, but expects the amount to be less than the $32,518,731 received in 2009. The Fund is also incurring legal costs in defending the case.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC and the Shareholders of Fidelity Floating Rate Central Fund:

Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Floating Rate Central Fund (the "Fund"), a fund of Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC, including the schedule of investments, as of September 30, 2018, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of September 30, 2018, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2018, by correspondence with the custodians, brokers, and agent banks; when replies were not received from brokers or agent banks, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more of the Fidelity investment companies since 1999.

Directors and Officers (Trustees and Officers)

The Trustees, Members of the Advisory Board (if any), and officers of the Fidelity Central Investment Portfolios LLC and fund, as applicable, are listed below. The Board of Trustees governs the fund and is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders. The Trustees are experienced executives who meet periodically throughout the year to oversee the fund's activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund, oversee management of the risks associated with such activities and contractual arrangements, and review the fund's performance.  Each of the Trustees oversees 260 funds. 

The Trustees hold office without limit in time except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust.  Each Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the trust and the fund is referred to herein as an Independent Trustee.  Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs.  The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees.  Officers and Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time, except that any officer or Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the past five years. 

The fund’s Statement of Additional Information (SAI) includes more information about the Trustees. To request a free copy, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544.

Experience, Skills, Attributes, and Qualifications of the Trustees. The Governance and Nominating Committee has adopted a statement of policy that describes the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills that are necessary and desirable for potential Independent Trustee candidates (Statement of Policy). The Board believes that each Trustee satisfied at the time he or she was initially elected or appointed a Trustee, and continues to satisfy, the standards contemplated by the Statement of Policy. The Governance and Nominating Committee also engages professional search firms to help identify potential Independent Trustee candidates who have the experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills consistent with the Statement of Policy. From time to time, additional criteria based on the composition and skills of the current Independent Trustees, as well as experience or skills that may be appropriate in light of future changes to board composition, business conditions, and regulatory or other developments, have also been considered by the professional search firms and the Governance and Nominating Committee. In addition, the Board takes into account the Trustees' commitment and participation in Board and committee meetings, as well as their leadership of standing and ad hoc committees throughout their tenure.

In determining that a particular Trustee was and continues to be qualified to serve as a Trustee, the Board has considered a variety of criteria, none of which, in isolation, was controlling. The Board believes that, collectively, the Trustees have balanced and diverse experience, qualifications, attributes, and skills, which allow the Board to operate effectively in governing the fund and protecting the interests of shareholders. Information about the specific experience, skills, attributes, and qualifications of each Trustee, which in each case led to the Board's conclusion that the Trustee should serve (or continue to serve) as a trustee of the fund, is provided below.

Board Structure and Oversight Function. James C. Curvey is an interested person and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the fund. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chairman, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chairman and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. Ned C. Lautenbach serves as Chairman of the Independent Trustees and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.

Fidelity® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The fund's Board oversees Fidelity's high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity's investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity® funds overseen by the fund's Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity® funds overseen by each Board.

The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the fund's activities and associated risks.  The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the fund's business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above.  Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the fund are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the fund's exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees.  While each of the Board's committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the fund's activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees.  In addition, the Independent Trustees have worked with Fidelity to enhance the Board's oversight of investment and financial risks, legal and regulatory risks, technology risks, and operational risks, including the development of additional risk reporting to the Board.  Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the fund's Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), FMR's internal auditor, the independent accountants, the fund's Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board's committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity's risk management program for the Fidelity® funds.  The responsibilities of each standing committee, including their oversight responsibilities, are described further under "Standing Committees of the Trustees."

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (April 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018).

Actual Expenses

The first line of the accompanying table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

 Annualized Expense Ratio-A Beginning
Account Value
April 1, 2018 
Ending
Account Value
September 30, 2018 
Expenses Paid
During Period-B
April 1, 2018
to September 30, 2018 
Actual .0056% $1,000.00 $1,027.70 $.03 
Hypothetical-C  $1,000.00 $1,025.04 $.03 

 A Annualized expense ratio reflects expenses net of applicable fee waivers.

 B Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 183/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

 C 5% return per year before expenses

Distributions (Unaudited)

A total of 0.67% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year was derived from interest on U.S. Government securities which is generally exempt from state income tax.

The fund designates $75,864,852 of distributions paid during the period January 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018 as qualifying to be taxed as interest-related dividends for nonresident alien shareholders.

The fund will notify shareholders in January 2019 of amounts for use in preparing 2018 income tax returns.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts

Fidelity Floating Rate Central Fund

At its July 2018 meeting, the Board of Directors, including the Independent Directors (together, the Board), voted to continue the management contract with FMR Co., Inc. (FMRC) and the sub-advisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund for six months through January 31, 2019, in connection with the reunification of the Fidelity Equity High Income Funds Board, which oversees the fund, and the Sector Portfolios Board.

The Board considered that the approval of the fund's Advisory Contracts will not result in any changes in (i) the investment process or strategies employed in the management of the fund's assets; (ii) the fees and expenses paid by shareholders; (iii) the nature, extent or quality of services provided under the fund's Advisory Contracts; or (iv) the day-to-day management of the fund or the persons primarily responsible for such management. The Board concluded that the fund's Advisory Contracts are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed, without modification, through January 31, 2019, with the understanding that the Board will consider the annual renewal for a full one year period in January 2019.

In connection with its consideration of future renewals of the fund's Advisory Contracts, the Board will consider: (i) the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the fund, including shareholder and administrative services and investment performance; (ii) the competitiveness of the management fee and total expenses for the fund; (iii) the costs of the services and profitability, including the revenues earned and the expenses incurred in conducting the business of developing, marketing, distributing, managing, administering, and servicing the fund and its shareholders, to the extent applicable, as well as potential fall-out benefits from Fidelity's non-fund businesses; and (iv) whether there have been economies of scale in respect of the Fidelity funds, whether the Fidelity funds (including the fund) have appropriately benefited from any such economies of scale, and whether there is the potential for realization of any further economies.

Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all factors it believed relevant, the Board ultimately concluded that the fund's management fee structure is fair and reasonable, and that the continuation of the fund's Advisory Contracts should be approved.

The trust's Audit Committee has considered non-audit services that were not pre-approved that were provided by Deloitte Entities to Fund Service Providers to be compatible with maintaining the independence of Deloitte Entities in its audit of the Funds, taking into account representations from Deloitte Entities, in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules, regarding its independence from the Funds and their related entities and FMR’s review of the appropriateness and permissibility under applicable law of such non-audit services prior to their provision to the Fund Service Providers.


Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

 

The trust’s Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by a fund’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to the operations or financial reporting of the fund. Prior to the commencement of any audit or non-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.


The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures to, among other purposes, provide a framework for the Committee’s consideration of non-audit services by the audit firms that audit the Fidelity funds. The policies and procedures require that any non-audit service provided by a fund audit firm to a Fidelity fund and any non-audit service provided by a fund auditor to a Fund Service Provider that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund (“Covered Service”) are subject to approval by the Audit Committee before such service is provided.


All Covered Services must be approved in advance of provision of the service either: (i) by formal resolution of the Audit Committee, or (ii) by oral or written approval of the service by the Chair of the Audit Committee (or if the Chair is unavailable, such other member of the Audit Committee as may be designated by the Chair to act in the Chair’s absence). The approval contemplated by (ii) above is permitted where the Treasurer determines that action on such an engagement is necessary before the next meeting of the Audit Committee.


Non-audit services provided by a fund audit firm to a Fund Service Provider that do not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund are reported to the Audit Committee periodically.


Non-Audit Services Approved Pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) and (ii) of Regulation S-X (“De Minimis Exception”)


There were no non-audit services approved or required to be approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the De Minimis Exception during the Funds’ last two fiscal years relating to services provided to (i) the Funds or (ii) any Fund Service Provider that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds.
