STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
 
 
The following information supplements information for Fidelity® Series Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund found in the "Management Contracts" section.
Tong Chen and Jennifer Moon are research analysts and Co-Portfolio Managers of Fidelity® Series Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund and each receives compensation for services as a research analyst and as a portfolio manager under a single compensation plan. As of September 30, 2025, compensation generally consists of a fixed base salary determined periodically (typically annually), a bonus, and in certain cases, participation in several types of equity-based compensation plans. A portion of each portfolio manager's compensation may be deferred based on criteria established by FMR or at the election of the portfolio manager.
Each portfolio manager's base salary is determined primarily by level of experience and skills, and performance as a research analyst and fund manager at FMR or its affiliates. A portion of each portfolio manager's bonus relates to the portfolio manager's performance as a research analyst and is based on the Director of Research's assessment of the research analyst's performance and may include factors such as portfolio manager survey-based assessments, which relate to analytical work and investment results within the relevant market(s) and impact on other emerging market funds and accounts as a research analyst, and the research analyst's contributions to the research groups and to FMR. Another component of the bonus is based upon (i) the pre-tax investment performance of each portfolio manager's fund(s) and account(s) measured against a benchmark index (which may be a customized industry benchmark index developed by FMR) assigned to each fund or account, and within a defined peer group assigned to each fund or account, if applicable, (ii) the investment performance of other FMR equity funds and accounts, and (iii) the pre-tax investment performance of the portfolio manager's recommendations measured against a benchmark index corresponding to the portfolio manager's assignment universe and against a broadly diversified emerging markets index. The pre-tax investment performance of each portfolio manager's fund(s) and account(s) is weighted according to the portfolio manager's tenure on those fund(s) and account(s). The component of the bonus relating to the Director of Research's assessment is calculated over a one-year period, and each other component of the bonus is calculated over a measurement period that initially is contemporaneous with each portfolio manager's tenure, but that eventually encompasses rolling periods of up to five years for the comparison to a benchmark index and rolling periods of up to three years for the comparison to a peer group, if applicable. The portion of each portfolio manager's bonus that is linked to the investment performance of Fidelity® Series Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund is based on the fund's pre-tax investment performance measured against the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net MA tax), and the fund's pre-tax investment performance within the Morningstar® Diversified Emerging Markets Category. Another component of Mr. Chen's bonus is based on the pre-tax investment performance of the portion of the fund's assets the portfolio manager manages measured against the MSCI Emerging Markets Consumer Discretionary Index. Another component of Ms. Moon's bonus is based on the pre-tax investment performance of the portion of the fund's assets the portfolio manager manages measured against the MSCI EM Communication Services Index. Each portfolio manager also is compensated under equity-based compensation plans linked to increases or decreases in the net asset value of the stock of FMR LLC, FMR's parent company. FMR LLC is a diverse financial services company engaged in various activities that include fund management, brokerage, retirement, and employer administrative services.
A portfolio manager's compensation plan may give rise to potential conflicts of interest. A portfolio manager's compensation is linked to the pre-tax performance of the fund, rather than its after-tax performance. the portfolio manager's base pay and bonus opportunity tend to increase with the portfolio manager's level of experience and skills relative to research and fund assignments. The management of multiple funds and accounts (including proprietary accounts) may give rise to potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees as a portfolio manager must allocate time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts. In addition, the fund's trade allocation policies and procedures may give rise to conflicts of interest if the fund's orders do not get fully executed due to being aggregated with those of other accounts managed by FMR. A portfolio manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the fund. Securities selected for other funds or accounts may outperform the securities selected for the fund. Trading in personal accounts, which may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, is restricted by a fund's Code of Ethics. Furthermore, the potential exists that a portfolio manager's responsibilities as a portfolio manager of the fund may not be entirely consistent with the portfolio manager's responsibilities as a research analyst providing recommendations to other Fidelity portfolio managers
Portfolio managers may receive interests in certain funds or accounts managed by FMR or one of its affiliated advisers (collectively, "Proprietary Accounts"). A conflict of interest situation is presented where a portfolio manager considers investing a client account in securities of an issuer in which FMR, its affiliates or their (or their fund clients') respective directors, officers or employees already hold a significant position for their own account, including positions held indirectly through Proprietary Accounts. Because the 1940 Act, as well as other applicable laws and regulations, restricts certain transactions between affiliated entities or between an advisor and its clients, client accounts managed by FMR or its affiliates, including accounts sub-advised by third parties, are, in certain circumstances, prohibited from participating in offerings of such securities (including initial public offerings and other offerings occurring before or after an issuer's initial public offering) or acquiring such securities in the secondary market. For example, ownership of a company by Proprietary Accounts has, in certain situations, resulted in restrictions on FMR's and its affiliates' client accounts' ability to acquire securities in the company's initial public offering and subsequent public offerings, private offerings, and in the secondary market, and additional restrictions could arise in the future; to the extent such client accounts acquire the relevant securities after such restrictions are subsequently lifted, the delay could affect the price at which the securities are acquired.  
A conflict of interest situation is presented when FMR or its affiliates acquire, on behalf of their client accounts, securities of the same issuers whose securities are already held in Proprietary Accounts, because such investments could have the effect of increasing or supporting the value of the Proprietary Accounts. A conflict of interest situation also arises when FMR investment advisory personnel consider whether client accounts they manage should invest in an investment opportunity that they know is also being considered by an affiliate of FMR for a Proprietary Account, to the extent that not investing on behalf of such client accounts improves the ability of the Proprietary Account to take advantage of the opportunity. FMR has adopted policies and procedures and maintains a compliance program designed to help manage such actual and potential conflicts of interest.
